MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 634 What happened back then

 “Your sister-in-law is bold and likes me like this.”

 “Shameless!”

 “Compared with you, it’s far behind.”

Two brothers, one writes and the other answers. Although they are slower and quieter, they seem to have returned to those days of heart-to-heart talks in the camp in Cezhou.

Gu Jiulang breathed a rare sigh of relief, and then glanced at the mother and son sleeping not far away, feeling a lot of tenderness in his heart.

In those difficult years, the courage that kept him alive was the three of them. Therefore, even if he returned to Cezhou, Jinling City, and those days in the past, he would still take them with him. , a family that will never leave and never be separated.

Gu Shaoyu knew that it was difficult for him to mention what happened back then in his current situation, but he couldn't help it, so after a moment of silence, he still asked.

“Ninth brother, how did you escape?”

Hearing this, Gu Jiulang's body tensed up suddenly, but he gradually relaxed, so he wrote down what happened that year on the paper with a heavy look on his face.

At this point, Gu Shaoyu knew the full story of the Gu family’s sacrifice for the country.

 The Battle of Jince was originally a tug-of-war that lasted for nearly two years.

 Da Jin suppressed the battle with strong troops, and the supply of food and grass was timely, so he fought very fiercely.

The Gu family army has been fighting fiercely for so long, facing the enemy with an army of 200,000. If it weren't for Marshal Gu's skill in using troops, Cezhou would not be able to hold on at all.

Cezhou at that time was not the same as it is now. It was not a good city to begin with, so many people were trying to persuade Marshal Gu to give up. However, he saw that the people in the city were already living a difficult life. If they lost their homes again, , they are bound to become refugees, so they take Uncle Gu and Second Master Gu to guard here.

Then he ordered Mr. Gu and Mr. Gu to take a few brothers to sneak attack on Dajin's camp. Unexpectedly, someone leaked the news in advance, so when they left, they became dead souls in the hands of Dajin.

Gu Shaoyu was able to escape because his third uncle and fourth uncle sacrificed their lives.

And Gu Jiulang was able to escape because a little soldier following him took advantage of the chaos and took away his clothes and armor to die for him.

　　At that time, they entered Qiuhua Mountain by mistake, and three or four people protected him as he headed into the forest.

But it was dark and there were people chasing after them, so they ran away. They couldn't even find the way they came, so they were trapped and died in the mountains and forests.

As he spoke, Gu Jiulang opened the collar of his clothes. There was a hateful scar on it, extending from the back of his neck to his right chest. This wound happened to press his throat, so his throat was disabled. .

Gu Shaoyu looked at the scar with complicated and heavy eyes.

With such a deep scar, I thought it was a great blessing that he could survive it, and then he sighed and asked again.

 “What about your legs? Why is this happening?”

"I didn't pay attention when I was running. We fell off the cliff. They both fell to death trying to save me, and I fell to my waist. When I woke up, my legs were long gone."

After Gu Shaoyu was rescued back then, he was also unconscious.

Marshal Gu immediately arranged for people to be sent back to Jinling City, so he was in a daze on the way. When he learned the news, everyone in the Gu family had died in the battle, and it was useless for him to be sad.

He could only try his best to recover from his injuries, then return to Cezhou to recharge his batteries and make detailed arrangements until he defeated the Jin people, regained the lost land, and signed a peace treaty, which ended this long-standing dispute. .

 The two brothers were silent. These things are the common difficulties and pain in their hearts. Even though so many years have passed, they are still **** every time they mention them.

 Compared to Gu Jiulang, Gu Shaoyu is lucky.

His eldest brother Shang Dalang died early, so he was Gu Yunhe's only hope in the Duke's Mansion. It was precisely because of this that the uncles at that time protected him to the death and stayed away from this disaster of annihilation.

  Can't even take care of his own sons!

Gu Shaoyu shed tears silently, muttering in a low voice: I'm sorry.

If it weren't for saving him, maybe the third uncle and the fourth uncle would not have died, and Gu Sanlang, the best among the brothers, also took the fatal blow for him, otherwise he would be lying in the Gu family cemetery now It was Gu Shaoyu.

Gu Jiulang patted him on the shoulder, naturally he knew the kind of self-blame and regret.

 After all, his life was earned by the sacrifice of several soldiers, so he felt the same way.

 Finally, I put pen to paper and wrote: We must live well in order to be worthy of our grandfather and the others!

Gu Shaoyu grabbed Gu Jiulang's hand. In the world, only the two of them could truly understand each other's trauma caused by this experience.

 After a night's rest, everyone's spirits are much better.

Even though Gu Shaoyu and Gu Jiulang were suffering from bruises under their eyes, the heavy burden they had been carrying seemed to have been lifted a lot, and they looked much lighter.

The fourth aunt saw through it but didn’t say anything. She just asked Gu Jiulang, could he still hold on?

The knot in his heart was untied, and Gu Jiulang now felt that he would have no problem even if he lived for another ten years, so he nodded with a smile.

This night, Luo Yi and the children did not sleep very well.

After all, it will still be somewhat uncomfortable to leave a familiar environment, so it seems that the situation is not much better than that of the two Gu brothers.

Seeing this, Gu Jiulang pulled the three of them, mother and son, in front of them, and after speaking in sign language, they relaxed a little.

 “Pack up and set off later.”

“Well, the general sent someone to find a carriage nearby yesterday. It would be more convenient for Mr. Jiu, Mrs. Jiu and the children to take a carriage.”

Ni Yang's thorough consideration made Gu Shaoyu feel reassured, so everyone packed their bags and waited for the carriage to arrive.

 It was almost noon before everyone set off.

Because I took Gu Jiulang and the others with me, I was able to rush back in one day and one night, which took four full days.

By the time they arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, it was already the second day of August.

The entire Gu family was waiting at the door. The eldest aunt, the second aunt, Du Jingyi, the children, even Aunt Dou, Housekeeper He and the others were also there.

 Everyone’s eyes were red, and they basically started crying when they received the news.

"Why haven't you come yet? Didn't you say that everyone has already entered the city?"

The eldest aunt asked anxiously. Although the second aunt did not speak, her worry could be seen in her expression. The children were more curious about the sudden appearance of their family members, so Du Jingyi had to comfort the elders and explain to the children. , but it never stopped.
