This is a manor chosen by the Gu family ancestors. Later, due to the unstable situation, the entire Gu family moved here in search of stability.
The Gu family ancestors were large landowners, and all the land in Qinghe Brigade used to belong to the Gu family. Now, the Gu family lives on the edge of Qinghe Brigade, halfway up the mountain, living in isolation from other families.
Later, Grandpa Gu donated a lot of property and, along with his youngest son, provided medical care for the villagers, allowing the family to live peacefully in turbulent times.
In this era, it's not easy to find a doctor in the surrounding villages. Many people who fall ill can only wait to die. With the Gu family father and son in Qinghe Brigade, it truly brings peace of mind to the common people.
Mo Beihan drove and took Gu Qingyao all the way to the Gu family's residence.
Seeing the familiar cottage from her memories, Gu Qingyao's eyes immediately turned red!
It's a thatched cottage unique to this era, with walls made of rammed earth and many adobe bricks on top. These houses are mostly low and have poor lighting.
In this era, many rural areas have such houses. Gu Qingyao's memories are of growing up in this environment.
Grandpa and Grandma were old, so her father, worried about them, lived with the elderly couple in the countryside to take care of them.
When they were young, Grandpa and Grandma were wealthy, but their fortunes declined, and they could only survive in such an environment. They lived here for decades until their eighties before leaving.
Thinking of these past events, Gu Qingyao felt heartbroken.
Seeing her eyes turning red, Mo Beihan felt extremely distressed. He thought his Yao Yao was crying because of last night's events and felt wronged after returning home!
"Yao Yao..."
When he called her, Gu Qingyao came to her senses and quickly adjusted her emotions. Without saying anything, she hurriedly entered the courtyard.
In the courtyard, Grandma Wen Ruyu was washing clothes. Seeing Gu Qingyao return, she was surprised, "Yao Yao? Why are you back so soon? Where's your grandpa and dad?"
Grandma was already very old, with almost all her hair turned white, weathered by the years.
Seeing Grandma, Gu Qingyao almost burst into tears.
In her previous life, Grandma worried about her for a lifetime, even until her passing, she was still concerned about her future, saying that she was the one she couldn't let go of.
Clearly, she and Mo Beihan were good children who liked each other, but they were manipulated into such a situation and suffered so much.
