Chapter 389: Chapter 381: Derangement

Gu Er is now possessed, completely disregarding what Mrs. Gu Sr. or anyone else says; he won’t believe any of it.

With the things he has said, Mrs. Gu Sr. truly wishes she could slap him twice, but she’s so angry that she doesn’t have any strength, only feeling that her breath isn’t enough. If it weren’t for Nanny Chi and Nanny Chang calming and comforting her, Mrs. Gu Sr. feels she might be angered to death by this unfilial son.

“Get him out, drag this rebellious son out, and don’t ever let him back into the Marquis Mansion. If anyone dares to disobey my orders, they will be sent away directly.” Mrs. Gu Sr. cursed angrily, ordering people to drive him away.

“Madam should consider her health, don’t get angry; Second Young Master has also become confused, maybe he’s had some drinks and overheard something outside, which made him come to Madam saying such things.” Nanny Chi advised.

“Confused, huh? I see he’s quite clever, look at the things he’s said and done, all with seemingly logical reasoning. Now, in his eyes, we are the villains, scheming against him daily. I don’t even know what he thinks exists on him that is worth scheming over.” Mrs. Gu Sr. glared fiercely at her youngest son, “You only know how to accuse us of scheming against you, but when Mrs. Kong gave you the medicine to prevent descendants, was that also our fault? At the beginning, even though we arranged your marriage to Mrs. Kong, look at what she did before the marriage. If you hadn’t pleaded for Mrs. Kong in front of me, things might have been different; even if she entered the Marquis Mansion, she would have only been a concubine. How could she have dared to give you such medicine? You’ve gone astray outside, tomorrow you’re supposed to marry Sister Ning, yet you’re causing trouble outside, getting involved with the tutor’s daughter and having a child, even though it’s not yours. Look at the things you’ve done, which one does not hurt Sister Ning?”

“Just based on your actions, how could I entrust Sister Ning to you? That would harm Sister Ning for a lifetime.”

“What’s more shameful is that you even conceived such an absurd idea, having your brother act as a substitute on the wedding night for you to marry Sister Ning, and later still expect to live your life together with her. How could you entertain such thoughts? If you were a normal person, how could you even think or say something like that?”

“Do you think it’s not your fault at all? You got involved with the tutor and the tutor’s daughter — did your elder brother calculate that for you? Finally, when the tutor’s daughter was found to have a paramour outside, wasn’t it your elder brother who found out for you? How could you later learn about Mrs. Kong giving you the medicine? You don’t know how to find fault within yourself, only knowing how to blame others. At this point, you still have the face to stand here and accuse others. Don’t you feel embarrassed? I feel embarrassed for you.”

“Mother only knows how to blame me, but in Mother’s eyes, have you truly thought for me? Are those matters really as I imagined them? I didn’t want to be deceived by the tutor’s daughter, nor could I endure a woman like Mrs. Kong at the mansion. That’s why I thought of going outside, and at that time I wanted to make a mark, so Mother could regard me highly. Living near the academy, no one took care of me, and there was a gentle and caring woman who treated me well. I am normal too, how could I not be tempted?” Speaking about this matter, Gu Er was still full of resentment.

Had he known that through this matter, the issue of his inability to have offspring would be dragged out, he wouldn’t have done it, thus wouldn’t have lost Sister Ning.

But tonight’s events have made him understand that no matter what he does, Sister Ning would never choose him, instead choosing his elder brother.

He could see it clearly; his elder brother was moved by Sister Ning, and Sister Ning likewise was moved by his elder brother.

In the past, they interacted frequently, and he never thought much of it. After all, one was his elder brother, the other was his fiancée he grew up watching, neither would betray him.

But clearly, he was wrong; the two of them had long been secretly in love, scheming behind his back, now finally achieving their desires, yet it was only today that he came to know the truth of the matter.

“Are you saying all your actions were without fault?” Mrs. Gu Sr. looked coldly at her son, “I finally understand what it means to be beyond saving. Talking more with you is just pointless; you only focus on your own thoughts. Once you’ve decided on something, no matter what is said, you won’t believe it.”

“You barged in like this; luckily the servants have been sent out, otherwise today your words would only make people think you are insane. It’s getting late, you should leave, and don’t come back again. Think whatever you like. Besides, haven’t you already decided that I and your elder brother are calculating against you? Then just assume that we are. Since we are the ones scheming against you, there’s no need to come and accuse us in the future; a relationship already cut off, what right do you have to come here and accuse us?” Mrs. Gu Sr.’s gaze was icy.

Gu Er originally came to accuse, but after hearing these words, for a moment, he truly did not know how to respond!

In the past, when he was in the mansion, he could cause a fuss however he liked because he was the Second Young Master of the Marquis Mansion. But now it’s different; he has long since severed the mother-son relationship with his mother. Now that his mother is driving him away, he knows he has no words to refute.

Nanny Chi was also very upset, “Second Young Master should just leave first; I misjudged, thinking Second Young Master came to admit his wrongs, but Second Young Master’s words today were excessive. How could he say such things? Over the years, how Madam treated the Second Young Master, nobody knows better than Second Young Master. Those words Second Young Master just spoke, they’re like stabbing a knife into an old lady’s heart. It’s a pity, the old lady’s kindness towards Second Young Master; Madam never valued power, only wanting Second Young Master to live more comfortably, not pushing him to earn titles academically. Yet in Second Young Master’s eyes, Madam is seen as being partial.”

“Indeed, hearing such words even we servants feel uncomfortable, not to mention that Madam is Second Young Master’s mother.” Nanny Chang also spoke up, “Second Young Master should leave quickly; today the servants in this mansion forgot Madam’s previous instructions, henceforth they certainly won’t allow Second Young Master into the mansion.”

Nanny Chi glanced at Nanny Chang but said nothing further; Mrs. Gu Sr. no longer wanted to speak more with this son, nor would she stop him, even standing up, letting Nanny Chi support her into the inner room.

Gu Er walked out dumbly, as though his soul had been pulled away, and outside were the serving servants; no one stopped him, nor did anyone approach. Gu Er looked at everything, suddenly laughing out loud.
