After retiring the engagement, she actually married the emperor's uncle in a wedding dress

Chapter 137 The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked

"These people are too bold, dare to take lives for 1000 taels in the imperial city?" The lady was always timid, but now she was terrified when she heard it, and she took Gu Yanxi's hand and told her, "Yanxi, you must remember not to gamble. , studying hard is serious."

"Yes, mother." Gu Yanxi nodded obediently.

Old Mrs. Gu's face became more and more sad: "Ji Yuan is a piece of mud that can't support the wall! If you are good, don't learn, just learn how to gamble!"

"That's right. How prosperous the Ji family used to be? Now that all the property is lost, how will the Ji family live in the future?" The eldest lady agreed without thinking.

Gu Qingluo hastily tugged her, signaling her not to add fuel to the flames.

The third aunt Lin said: "Mother, don't worry about it. The seventh uncle is not good, just don't imitate him."

"Ji's family..." Mrs. Gu couldn't explain her natal family.

Gu Qingluo said: "It is said that the rich can't last for three generations. If Ji's cousins ​​and elder cousins ​​strive to become stronger from now on, the Gu family can also help."

"Luo Luo, what do you think of Ji Ming?" Mrs. Gu's gloomy eyes once again had hope.

Ji Ming is Ji Yuan's only son, and he has two sons and a daughter under his knees.The daughter is Ji Rou, the one Mrs. Gu originally wanted to say to Gu Ping as his wife.

"I can't get in touch with it, so I'm not sure." Gu Qingluo pondered.

"You child, you have clear eyes and a clear heart, but you don't want to stay still. Forget it, grandma knows what you mean." The hope in Mrs. Gu's eyes was shattered, "What kind of good seeds can a person like Ji Yuan raise?"

The crowd was silent.

That's the truth, otherwise the members of Ji's family wouldn't blame the Gu family for Ji Yuan's death, and they would gather together to make trouble on New Year's Eve.

The scenery of Ji's family has long been in name only.After spending so many years relying on his ancestral property and Mrs. Gu's face, he couldn't keep his face anymore.

"Grandmother, we still have to help the Ji family. But we can't give money now." Gu Qingluo said, "The main reason they came to make trouble is to extort money. If we lend a helping hand at this time, they will only think that the Gu family has confessed to the crime. Then make demands."

Mrs. Gu was stunned: "Yeah, I'm confused. At this time, I can't let go..."

"If grandma can rest assured, leave this matter to me!" Gu Qingluo said.

"Don't worry grandma when you do things. Grandma listens to you and doesn't care about Ji's family." Mrs. Gu patted her chest and calmed down, and her condition was much better.

Gu Rongqin smiled sweetly: "Grandmother, today's chicken soup is delicious, Qin'er can help you serve a bowl?"

"Okay, I'll drink a bowl of soup and go back to my room to rest. It's rare for your husband to come home, so get together with your children more often." Mrs. Gu explained to the eldest lady and the third lady, and left.

Everyone is very sorry that the good New Year's Eve was destroyed like this.

Gu Rongqin moved to sit next to Gu Qingluo, and whispered: "Big sister, 1000 taels is not a lot of money. Does anyone really kill people for 1000 taels?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple..." Gu Qingluo rubbed the teacup in her hand, lost in thought.

At this moment, Gu Ping came back angrily to take the sword.

Gu Qingluo hurriedly asked, "Fourth Uncle, what's going on outside?"

"The old ones are shameless, and the young ones are also shameless. Let my sword meet them!" Gu Ping scolded.

"Fourth Uncle, I'll go with you." Gu Qingluo stood up, ready to check the situation outside in person.

Gu Ping said: "You can't go, what if you get hurt with such a big belly?"

"They can't hurt me." Gu Qingluo smiled, "Even if we really fight, Fourth Uncle, you are not my opponent."

"Yes, you are Lord Lingzhu of Baimei Villa." Gu Ping looked at his niece, his eyes gradually became complicated, "Ji Rou is here too."

"Her?" Gu Qingluo's eyes flickered slightly.

Look at fourth uncle's expression, don't you really like Ji Rou?
"It just so happens that she also has something to tell you, let's go!" Gu Ping walked ahead with a sword in hand, Zhu Feng and Cui'er protected Gu Qingluo from left to right.

The streets are full of New Year's flavor, and every household is hung with red lanterns.Red firecracker paper is scattered on the white snow on the ground.

Ji Yuan's body was carried to the door, and almost all members of Ji's family were present, with Ji Ming as the leader performing tricks of crying, making trouble and hanging himself.

Deliberately exaggerating the mourning sound hurt the Gu family's ears.

Ji Yuan was beaten to death by his creditor outside, how can he blame the Gu family?
The two quarreled and turned their faces, was it wrong not to present the New Year gift?

Gu Qingluo looked at the messy scene, and Gu Yong went to Jing Zhaoyin to question the details of the incident.Gu An has a fiery temper, and even got into an argument with Ji Ming if he failed to calm down the situation.

Gu Qingluo closed her eyes and said coldly: "Enough!"

The noisy sound was instantly silent.

So everyone looked at Gu Qingluo.

"Gu Qingluo, you are the head of the Gu family, tell me, how do you deal with this matter?" Ji Ming left Gu An and ran over to question Gu Qingluo.

That tone and expression are exactly the same as Ji Yuan's, an annoying rascal.

"Seventh uncle owed gambling debts outside and was beaten to death by debt collectors. If you don't file a lawsuit, ask Jing Zhaoyin to be the master of Ji's family. What are you doing in Gu's house?" Gu Qingluo's cold voice smashed like snowballs down.

Ji Ming was a little afraid of this niece, and scolded his neck: "If you hadn't withheld the annual gift, my father wouldn't be in debt! He wouldn't be beaten to death by the debt collectors!"

"Unreasonable." Gu An was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick. If his elder brother hadn't told him not to do anything before leaving, he would have beaten Ji Ming a long time ago.

"Uncle Ji's words are surprising. New Year's gift is a heartfelt gift, and it's up to others to give it away. Your father's debt is his business, and it's Ji's business to pay off the debt." Gu Qingluo frowned slightly, patiently Be reasonable.

Of course, she didn't expect Jiming to listen.

If Ji Ming was reasonable, he wouldn't come to the Gu family to make trouble.

"Gu Qingluo, don't tell me these things. In short, you have to be responsible for my father's death because of your Gu family." Ji Ming said.

"Why?" Gu Qingluo asked.

Ji Mingshi opened his mouth loudly: "At least ten hectares of fertile land and five shops must be compensated to me. Don't pay me another ten thousand yuan."

"Why don't you go grab it?" Gu Ping couldn't help scolding, "Do you think our Gu family is being taken advantage of?"

"Uncle Ji's family wants money!" Gu Qingluo sneered, "I now suspect that Uncle Qi was killed by Uncle Ji's family."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was taken aback.

Including Ji Ming.

He quickly defended himself: "Gu Qingluo, don't talk nonsense, I'll be at home and prepare for New Year's Eve! The government also said that my father was beaten to death by debt collectors."

"Then you should seek compensation from the debt collector." Gu Qingluo said.

Only then did Ji Ming realize that he was trapped in it!

He pointed at Gu Qingluo angrily and scolded: "You little bitch, how dare you go around me?"

"Snapped!"

An invisible slap hit Ji Ming hard on the face.

"Ouch!" Ji Ming screamed and fell to the ground, half of his face was swollen immediately, "Who? Who hit me?"

The members of Ji's family all looked at Ji Ming with ghostly eyes, and retreated collectively: No one beat Ji Ming at all, so it couldn't be haunted?
Gu Ping frowned, and asked Gu Qingluo in a low voice: "Is that you?"

Gu Qingluo asked in surprise, "Isn't it Fourth Uncle?"

"It's not me." Gu Ping shook his head, "Brother told me not to do anything, I will remember it!"

"That……"

The two looked at Gu An.

Gu An also shook his head.

No, who is that slapping Ji Ming across the air?
