Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

His words shocked everyone!

“Something is about to happen? What is it?” Gu Conghua had a sense of foreboding.

Gu Yunjing glanced at his aged father and said, “Things are rather messy where I am now. I might… might be demoted and sent for labor reformation.”

Gu Conghua instantly turned pale.

Wen Ruyu was terrified. “Reformation? Why do you need to reform? This… will anything happen to you? Where are you going? Is it one of those desolate places? Does… does Jinye have to go too?”

Gu Jinye was the eldest grandson in the Gu family. He was twenty-eight years old and still single.

Gu Yunjing glanced at his eldest son and said with some regret, “Jinye will have to go too. Even if he stays, I doubt he’ll be able to remain in his position for long. Even I have to go. If Jinye stays, nothing good will come of it. Now we are just hoping to keep our family together.”

“What… what shall we do?” Wen Ruyu started to cry.

Gu Yunjing was filled with guilt when he saw his aged mother sobbing.

He had worked away from his home for many years, but in the end, he still caused his parents so much worry.

“Mother, Mother, don’t worry. It’s my own plan to leave. Beihan told me that I might be in danger if I stayed, so I thought I might as well find a way to leave. Actually, we are just going away for a while until this blows over. I will certainly be able to return after a couple of years. Please don’t worry.”

“Grandma, don’t worry. These are our own arrangements. Nothing will happen to us. When things have died down after a couple of years, we’ll be able to come back.” Gu Jinye comforted Wen Ruyu.

Wen Ruyu’s face was covered with tears. She clutched Gu Jinye’s hand. “But… but demotion always means suffering! Our lives are hard enough. This… you aren’t even married yet. If you are demoted, what… what will we do!”

Gu Jinye’s smile was a little forced. “Grandma, I’ll be able to come back in a couple of years’ time. I might even find a wife while I’m demoted!”

Eldest Aunt, Fang Ling, looked rather angry. “We already made a match for Jinye. The last time Yao Yao sent us so many good things, we made our preparations and gathered many things. We already agreed on the match. But now the other side is having second thoughts.”

Fang Ling grew angry when she thought of it.

She had been so nice to the girl. After they were introduced, Jinye had taken so many nice things from their family to give to her. Now there were only rumors of their demotion, but no actual news. However, the girl had already changed her mind. It was too much!

Gu Yunjing said, “Alright, let’s not talk about these things. Just as well Jinye didn’t marry someone like that, or he would be worse off.”

Fang Ling snorted coldly, but held her tongue.

Gu Qingyao was bewildered as she listened from the sidelines.

Eldest Uncle’s family was being demoted?

Had such a thing happened in her previous life? That’s right, in her previous life, Eldest Uncle’s family had indeed been demoted, but at that time, it was only her eldest uncle and aunt, and not her eldest cousin.

To be precise, he was not demoted at first, but he ran into trouble later on.

At that time, her eldest cousin was already married, but had run into trouble not long after his marriage. The girl divorced him and took the initiative to break off their ties.

Her eldest uncle’s family only returned after five years.

At this time in her previous life, she had been hiding at home, not daring to go out! The adults had not told her about all these things. She had only learnt about them later, long after Eldest Uncle’s family was demoted.

She only found out about her eldest cousin’s marriage and divorce long after the incident had occurred.

When she thought about it carefully, it had indeed happened around this time.

Were the present circumstances different from her previous life?

“Eldest Uncle, did you say it was Elder Brother Beihan who told you the news?”
