Chapter 728 Engagement (6)
So it turns out that Gu Yelin’s devotion and long-standing affection is inherited from his father.
Having figured out who Xiao Xia was, Kong Shi’s mind suddenly remembered the news she heard a few years ago. She asked in a lowered voice, frowning, "I heard that Yelin’s mother died suddenly from a strange illness? Aren’t the Gu Family an Ancient Martial Arts Family? How come they couldn’t cure it?"
Kong Shi was right; generally speaking, members of Ancient Martial Arts Families have some basic foundation, and most disciples from these families, in order to age together with their partners, also pay attention when choosing a mate to whether the other party has the talent for the Cultivation of Ancient Martial Arts, or if the other party is also an Ancient Martial Artist.
And Ji Xia was such an idle Ancient Martial Artist.
Ji Xia’s father, a well-known painter associated with Xuanjin, had some understanding of ancient martial arts. So from Ji Xia’s childhood, her father sent her to learn and practice ancient martial arts. They didn’t seek to stand out, but only to strengthen the body and maintain good health.
Thus, Ji Xia had a foundation in ancient martial arts. After she married Gu Weijun, she diligently practiced even more, making rapid progress.
Normally, those who practice ancient martial arts seldom fall ill. Of course, this excludes extremely dreadful and complicated diseases like the one Duan Yuntian had.
Yu Xiaoyan and Chen Fang both understood Kong Shi’s confusion. They shook their heads helplessly and said, "What you mentioned is something we all had doubts about. Back then, Xiao Xia just had an ordinary cold, and nobody took it seriously, but who knew she would pass away just like that. To be honest, we still feel Xiao Xia’s death was not normal. But at that time, Grandpa Gu and Weijun used all their power to investigate this matter and couldn’t find any clues. In the end, they had no choice but to let it go. Xiao Shi, don’t tell Lao San and Xiao Qing about this matter; Grandpa Gu doesn’t want it spread."
