Chapter 53: Stealing things, it seems like no one can do it
"You are finally back."
Gu Hua could tell from these simple words that they reflected the vicissitudes and stress he had experienced during this period.
"Well, I'm back."
Su Fuying, who hadn't relaxed for a long time, suddenly had tears in her eyes when she heard her voice. "If you don't come back, I'm going to quit."
Gu Hua walked over and patted his shoulder, "No."
I don’t know whether Gu Hua meant that he would not give up or that he would come back. Anyway, Su Fuying, who hadn’t smiled for a long time, finally smiled.
The people around who recognized Gu Hua stared at her with puzzled expressions.
"Didn't they say that she disappeared shortly after shipping the goods to Saibei, and her life or death is still unknown? How could she appear here?"
The head of the Wan family, who was originally leisurely drinking tea in the teahouse and watching the thugs he had secretly ordered to disrupt the Gu family's shop and prevent them from operating normally, asked the follower who was asking for information in a vicious tone.
"This, this little one also got the news from the people from the Gu family who went to Saibei, and the Chen family who brought them back..."
Gu Hua raised his head and coldly glanced at the group of people who had ulterior motives and were watching the bustling Gu family shop here, no matter what their intentions were.
At this time, Gu Huadu decided to play with them later as she had other things waiting to be done.
Gu Hua: "Close the shop door, take your staff and gather as many beggars as you can from Jiangzhou City and bring them here as soon as possible."
"What do you want to do by gathering so many beggars together?" Su Fuying asked with some confusion.
Gu Hua pushed him and said, "There's no time to explain. Go and do it for me."
Su Fuying has always been a smart man. Even if he had doubts, he planned to find out later. He obediently took a few of his equally confused companions to the streets to collect beggars.
After more than half an hour, or more than an hour, Su Fuying, who was very capable, asked the beggars to find beggars, and soon gathered hundreds of beggars of all sizes, old and young and brought them to Gu Hua.
……
At this time, at the Gu Mansion on East Street.
The chief steward Gu Fu and his men pushed aside with gloomy faces.
"Dad, are we just going to watch these people empty the house?!"
Gu Fu looked at the tall man who suddenly appeared with the patriarch's jade pendant, and saw that he looked calm and composed. He stretched out his hand to hold down his eldest son who couldn't help but go out to stop the Gu family members from moving things.
“With the master of the house away, people’s hearts are unsettled.
There are many people from the Gu family coming this time. Even if we resist, how long can we hold out? Let them take it."
Housekeeper Gu was comforting his eldest son, but he was also comforting himself, "The master will make the final decision when he returns."
Qi Yan glanced at the servants in the Gu Mansion and found that most of them were very indignant about the Gu family coming to steal things and wanted to step forward to stop them. However, there were also a few servants who took a nonchalant attitude as if it was none of their business.
The third uncle and the fifth uncle stood in the front yard of the Gu Mansion and watched the clansmen running around in the Gu Mansion carrying things out without restraint, with smiles of relief in their eyes.
"Gu Hua, you little girl, thought you could escape from our clutches by making a fuss about leaving the clan. Now that she's dead, the Gu Mansion has fallen into our hands."
“Cough cough cough… bastard… bastard… you… you guys…”
When the Gu family saw the fourth grandfather fainted from anger, their eyes were full of contempt, "If you are not feeling well, just lie down at home. Why are you meddling in other people's business here?"
Gu Chen and Gu Jiqing wanted to help Gu Hua take care of the house, but they also had to pay attention to the health of their father and grandfather. Under the persuasion of housekeeper Fu, the two of them carried the unconscious fourth grandfather and hurried back to find a doctor. Gu Chen carried his grandfather on his back and passed by his third and fifth uncles, and said hatefully: "People do things, and God is watching. There are gods above your heads. Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this?"
"Humph!" Third Uncle sneered, "I don't believe in retribution."
The fifth uncle said bluntly: "The people in your fourth room are quite honest.
The two generations of the sixth branch are kind-hearted and good at business, but so what.
Now the family business has fallen into decline without an heir to inherit it, and our third and fifth branches will inevitably be stepped on next, and the sixth branch, which has no heir to inherit the property, will rise soon.
All of you who claim to be good people will be trampled under our feet."
Gu Chen couldn't believe it. "You...you brought your clansmen to rob the Gu Mansion and you still want to take over the more than 40 stores of the Gu family?"
"So what?" The third uncle looked at the four generations of grandparents with contempt in his wrinkled old eyes. "Why don't you go back and find a doctor as soon as possible? I'm afraid your family will have to invite people to a banquet soon."
Gu Chen was furious but didn't dare to delay any longer so he gritted his teeth and left. He just felt sorry for his cousin for not protecting the mansion for her.
Just when the third uncle and the fifth uncle saw the sick fourth son of the fourth room being carried away, they knew it would be difficult for him to get up and take care of the affairs of the sixth room in a short period of time, and they complacently thought that the Gu Mansion was already under their control.
He was devastated by the words of his own servants who ran in from front and back.
"Third old master."
"Fifth Old Master."
"Our house was broken into by the young master of the Gu family and a group of beggars. They almost took away all the valuables."
Gu Jitang, who came out of the Gu Mansion holding an antique vase, asked in surprise, "How is it possible? Didn't she die in Saibei? When did she return to Jiangzhou?"
Not to mention how the people in the third and fifth rooms were secretly angry and resentful after they were surprised and ran back home to see that their house was empty and only a mess remained.
He only said that after hearing what the third uncle's people said, he learned that not only was the young master of his family not dead, but he had also vented his anger for their frustration during this period without knowing it.
The servants of the Gu Mansion who were truly loyal were all happy. Even when the mansion was emptied by the clans, and the chief steward ordered them to clean up the trampled and ruined courtyards and rooms, they did not feel so upset.
Soon, people in Jiangzhou City heard that the patriarch of the Gu family, the Third Uncle, and the elder, the Fifth Uncle, brought their clansmen to loot the Sixth Branch Gu Mansion, which had already left the family, and except for those that could not be moved, not even a hair was left.
What made people who heard about this incident feel relieved and relieved, and also very surprised was that at the time when the third and fifth uncles of the Gu family led the clansmen to rob all six branches of the Gu family.
There was also chaos in their two houses.
At this time, Gu Hua was standing in the Jiangzhou government office with a faint smile on her face, listening to the people at the gate talking about her.
“The young mistress of the Gu family is kindhearted. Her own shop is almost unable to operate, and she did not ask those beggars to return the items she exchanged with the third and fifth wives.
It was a cold winter, they had little to eat and drink, and no clothes or quilts to get through the winter, so they were asked to sell the things they had so that they could have a warm winter.
She also said that those things were exchanged with the third and fifth wives using items from her own house, so that the beggars would not have any psychological burden.
Unlike other unreasonable people in the Gu family, he took it for granted to move other people's things. When others brought people to take a few things from his house, he sued them in the government.
It's really like the governor is allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps. He is not a good person."
Gu Hua looked at her third and fifth uncles who had turned pale when they heard this and had reported her to court, and the smile on her face became even brighter.
