Chapter 73: Peace in the World without Any Morality
After the group failed in their assassination attempt on Gu Hua and was sent to jail, a man with an elegant appearance but a strong body, wearing a black cloak, hurriedly walked into a wealthy and luxurious mansion in Jiangzhou City.
"Back then, I listened to you and accepted the money sent by the fifth son of the Gu family, and led people to rob and kill Gu Jichang and his wife and their group of guards.
Now, this matter seems to have been known by the kid from the Gu family who used to be useless but has now become powerful as if he had been reborn."
The middle-aged man under the cloak looked at the person sitting behind the desk in the study with his back to him with unclear eyes, and continued to speak irritably: "Besides, I don't know what she did?
Last time it was the Wanping prefect, and now even the Jiangzhou city's new prefect Tian, who has been in office for less than a year, is investigating the matter.
And the second in command of the gang, the idiot who wanted to avenge his brother, has been caught. The assassination I sent failed this time."
The man with the cloak covering his face, who looked even darker, continued with some displeasure, "Things are getting out of my control. I have no one in the government. If those people expose me, I can't tell anyone..."
"Okay." The man sitting behind the desk paused for a moment and said in a very dark voice: "I will help you with this matter, you can go back."
The middle-aged man was obviously relieved when he heard this, "This is the best."
But what the man didn't know was that after he left, the person who turned around stared at his departing back with eyes like a venomous snake.
……
New Year’s Eve.
The newly decorated Gu Mansion was decorated with red lanterns and large "Fu" characters everywhere, and was decorated to look festive by the chief steward Fu Bo and his servants.
In the main room, Gu Hua smiled as he looked at Xia He, who had recovered from her injury, as well as Chunlan, Dongmei, Xiaozi and Xiaoqing. He helped the four little ones put on tiger-head hats and tiger-head shoes, and the festive red clothes that they had prepared during this period.
Among the people here, only Xia He, who had served him closely, knew that the children were Gu Hua's biological children. Even Xiao Zi and Xiao Qing, who helped take care of the children on the way back after they were bought, did not know. Gu Hua had never nursed the children in front of them.
This New Year's Eve, Gu Hua, with her four children, Qi Yan who left her hometown to come to Daxuan with her, and Su Fuying who claimed that she had no family and did not want to spend the New Year alone, had a New Year's Eve dinner together.
While staying up after dinner, Gu Hua ate melon seeds and watched the two men playing with the children.
Qi Yan picked up the second child, who was a chubby boy named Gu Jingyue and nicknamed Kang Kang, and tapped his pink nose. "When you grow up, little guy, I'll take you to the grassland to fight the wolf king, okay?"
"Ahhh-"
Looking at his second son who didn't understand anything and just opened his mouth, wanting to bite the man's finger, Gu Hua said that Qi Yan's wish might not be realized until at least ten years later.
"Rude!" Su Fuying glanced at Qi Yan, then said to the little girl in her arms, Gu Jingxing, the third child nicknamed Huanhuan, "When we grow up, stay away from this kind of reckless man who only knows how to fight and kill. Be careful not to be led astray by him."
"Stop talking, thin dog." Qi Yan, who was always stern, rarely said anything. "Just like someone with thin arms and legs, if he wants me to do something, it depends on whether I am interested or not."
If it wasn't for the fact that she was holding a child, Su Fuying, who was always despised by others, would have thrown the thing in her hand in his face.
"Rude, rude man, I won't bother with you."
Su Fuying held the child and sat on the couch where Gu Hua was. She looked at her aggrievedly again and again, as if asking for justice. This made Gu Hua turn her head away with a smile on her face. After all, she couldn't stand watching others laugh at her while they were coaxing her child.
"Hmph! A heartless woman." After waiting for a while, Su Fuying found that Gu Hua was only busy eating melon seeds, and said angrily. "You have a conscience, you have a conscience." Gu Hua put his stinky daughter who was stuffed into the man's arms back into Su Fuying's hands, "Rude, really rude, you are right."
Compared to taking care of children, she prefers to lean on a soft pillow leisurely, eat melon seeds and peanuts, and watch two men who are quite pleasing to the eye joke with each other.
"Since I am rude and reckless," Qi Yan raised one of his thick eyebrows, lowered his eyelids and said sadly, "Someone like me is definitely not worthy of holding a child."
"No, no, no!" Gu Hua looked at another meat bun about to be stuffed into his arms and said hurriedly, "You deserve it, you deserve it the most. If you don't deserve it, who else deserves it?"
It was so confusing that Gu Hua felt like his mouth was burned.
Gu Hua's attempt to please both sides was met with unanimous contempt from the two men.
In the end, Gu Hua did not have a leisurely and happy time until the end, because the second and third oldest were hugged and teased by Qi Yan and Su Fuying, and the eldest and the weak fourth oldest were not happy to be left out.
He whines and wants to be held.
Gu Hua looked at the maids who turned their heads away when they met his gaze, and felt that they could no longer be kept. His statement was so obvious, but they pretended not to understand.
Helpless: "Hold me here."
You can't throw away your own child, you can only hold him in your arms and put him on a soft stool to coax him. What else can you do?
Because there were several children in the mansion, according to the custom in Jiangzhou City, fireworks were set off at midnight to welcome the New Year. Gu Hua asked Dagui to take people to the gate of the Gu mansion to set off the fireworks. This way, the sound would be much smaller when it reached the backyard, and the children would not be easily frightened.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The sound of fireworks could be heard. Gu Hua stood under the eaves and looked up at the fireworks that were blooming at that moment. She looked a little dazed. It had been nearly a year since she came to this ancient place after the Chinese New Year.
"what happened?"
Gu Hua turned around and met a pair of cold eyes like stars, smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, I just feel a little sad that time flies by so fast."
"Yeah," Qi Yan hummed softly, "The New Year celebration in the North is not as lively as here because the weather there is too cold, but it is also very warm for the family to sit in front of the fireplace and eat and drink."
Gu Hua noticed a flash of hatred in Qi Yan's eyes for a moment, but when he looked more closely, his expression had returned to its calm and cold state.
Snowflakes were floating in the sky. Su Fuying stood beside Gu Hua, looking at her fair profile, and lowered her head slightly to hide her inappropriate thoughts.
Qi Yan's eyes flashed across from him. He glanced up at the person seeing snowflakes falling, smiled bitterly and turned away.
Gu Hua suddenly spoke up: "I don't have great benevolence or righteousness, but I also hope that the world will be peaceful, so that I can also provide a well-fed and well-clothed life for my children."
Gu Hua glanced at the man whose body stiffened when he heard this, and curled the corners of her mouth imperceptibly. Then she continued to look at the dazzling fireworks in the distant night sky, as if she had not said anything just now.
