After the old marquis passed away, Gu Tingye was calculated by Xiao Qin's family, so he couldn't afford to get sick.
On this day, Changbai came to see Gu Tingye with the fish porridge made by Minglan, and after chatting for a while, Gu Tingye looked at Changbai directly and asked softly, "Do you think, can I still wear filial piety clothes?" ”
Changbai looked at Gu Tingye's miserable appearance, comforted him and said, "I went to your house and saw the clan elder from your hometown, so I asked and didn't say to cross out your name." ”
A few days later, the old marquis went out of the funeral, and Gu Tingye put on filial piety clothes and knelt in the alley to see off the old marquis for the last time, which was the last father-son relationship.
In fact, Gu Tingye and the old marquis still care about each other, but both of them have strong personalities, and they are unwilling to sit down calmly and talk about it, and finally because of various misunderstandings, such a situation has been created.
This scene is actually very touching, but if you pay attention, you will find that there are two details that are worth us**.
The first is that Gu Tingye put on a filial piety dress, why didn't Sister Rong who was standing aside wear it?
Sister Rong is the granddaughter of the old marquis, and her grandfather has passed away, so her granddaughter should naturally wear linen and filial piety. But Sister Rong not only did not wear filial piety clothes, but when Gu Tingye knelt to see off Lao Hou, Sister Rong just stood from a distance and watched, and did not kneel.
Why is that?
According to the social background at that time, it was very important to pay attention to the thing of fame at that time, and it can be said that fame was even higher than blood relationship.
Therefore, when the old Hou Ye passed away, he did not recognize Sister Rong'er as a granddaughter, let alone write her into the family tree, so Sister Rong is not a member of the Hou Mansion.
And the Gu family did not cross out Gu Tingye's name, he is still a descendant of the Gu family in terms of name, so he can wear filial piety clothes, which is why Gu Tingye asked Changbai if he could wear filial piety clothes.
So if Sister Rong puts on filial piety clothes and worships secretly, is this okay? Actually, this is not going to work.
In a large family like the Hou Mansion, the members of the family are registered with the government.
Sister Rong did not enter the genealogy of the Hou Mansion, if she secretly wore filial piety clothes, and then was sued by someone with a heart to the government, it would be criticized at least and affect the reputation of the Gu family, and at worst she would be sent to the official for investigation and handling, causing trouble.
The second point is that the Xiao Qin clan wanted to get rid of Gu Tingye so much, why didn't they remove Gu Tingye from the Gu family's genealogy? Moreover, at that time, Gu Tingye's reputation in Bianjing was almost ruined, and it was not difficult to remove his name.
In fact, it's not that Xiao Qin's family is unwilling to do this, she is so vicious, she wants her son to inherit the title, and only by crossing out Gu Tingye from the family tree can it be regarded as cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.
And a sick man like Gu Tingyu can't live long, and Xiao Qin's family won't waste his hard work on him, so Xiao Qin's target is only Gu Tingye.
However, although Xiao Qin's family is the eldest lady of the old Hou Ye's main house, she does not have such great power, and she has the only one who has this power, that is, Gu Tingye's eldest brother, Gu Tingyu.
So why didn't Gu Tingyu cross Gu Tingye's name on the family tree?
In fact, in Gu Tingye's heart, he only hated Gu Tingye's biological mother Bai, and he was just angry with Gu Tingye.
It can be said that Gu Tingyu does not hate Gu Tingye, but admires him very much.
Gu Tingyu once said something like this: "He is so majestic, if he and I are the same mother, I can rest assured that everything in this courtyard will be handed over to him, but unfortunately fate is not good, but he is from the Bai family who harmed my mother." ”
It can be seen that Gu Tingyu does not hate Gu Tingye, and it turns out that Gu Tingyu's approach is correct, and he has preserved the future and future of the entire Hou Mansion.
Gu Tingyu knew that his days were numbered, and he had no son, and after his death, there were only two ways, one was to inherit a son from four rooms and five rooms, and the other was to pass the title to Gu Tingwei or Gu Tingye.
And Gu Tingwei is weak and incompetent, he is not the material to be the master of the house, those people in the four rooms and five rooms are also insatiable, only Gu Tingye is the hope of the Hou Mansion.
Gu Tingye is a person who values love and righteousness, Gu Tingyu knows this, so in the end, Gu Tingyu chose to pass the title to Gu Tingye and entrusted Gu to Minglan.
The so-called "be a man and leave a line, and see each other well in the future", Gu Tingyu had good intentions and did not cross Gu Tingye's name from the genealogy, protected his wife and daughter, and also preserved the future of the entire Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
