Chapter 474 Uninvited Guest

Talking about others, that’s fine.

Speaking of Sixth Brother's family, Gu Baozhu has something to say.

"If he dared to take a concubine, I would have slapped him hard and made him crawl on the ground."

Gu Baozhu put her hands on her hips and her nose turned up.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "What if your husband says that you can't have children, or can't have a son, so he wants to take a concubine? What will you do?"

Gu Baozhu was annoyed: "What can I do? My mother's family is the Marquis of Dingbei. If he dares to do anything else, it depends on whether he has a strong head."

In the end, we still have to take a tough approach.

Qin Yuan said calmly, "In the future, when there will be no wars, I'm afraid military generals won't be as important as before. Besides, if you find a scholar, he will be a civil official if he becomes an official. Civil officials and military generals don't compete with each other, and your family can't control him. If he is really angry, it's still good to divorce you. But if he is a bad person and insists on divorcing you, what should you do? Will you and your family beat him and your husband's family? You must know that there are still the government. If you are sued by your husband's family and put in jail, how can you face people in the future?"

Gu Baozhu sat there for a long while, then asked, "Oh my god, dear Third Sister-in-law, is it just a matter of enduring it? I'm living a good life at home, why should I go to someone else's house and suffer this?"

Qin Yuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"I'm just telling you that fighting and killing, using power to bully others is not the solution. Besides, marriage is about making two families friends. If you don't get married, you will become enemies and have an extra enemy for no reason. Then why get married? The most important thing between husband and wife is to get along with each other. First, it depends on whether the two are compatible, and second, whether both are good people. A good marriage requires the right time, place and people. How can everyone have it? If not, you should think of a way to live your life well."

Rong Mama nodded repeatedly and praised: "Madam, you are so knowledgeable at such a young age. You are worthy of having read so many books and you are very sensible. There are not so many good marriages in this world. You have to rely on your own cultivation. I wonder how much merit you have accumulated in your previous life to have a good marriage in this life."

Gu Baozhu sighed and said, "It turns out that marrying a pale-faced scholar is more troublesome than marrying a young general. I thought pale-faced scholars were easy to talk to and couldn't beat me. They would just give in to me and do as I please."

Rong Mama sneered and said, "Do you think that people's kindness is for nothing?"

Gu Baozhu, who was a bit nagging, rolled her eyes and said, "Go to sleep!"

Speaking of cunning thoughts, she didn't want to talk about it anymore - she, Gu Baozhu, the young lady of the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion, was not without cunning thoughts, nor was it that she would not use them, but she just didn't need to use them and was disdainful of using them.

It’s just past three o’clock.

Suddenly, the guards outside could be heard sounding bone flutes to alert the police. The sounds were so urgent that everyone was awakened.

Qin Yuan opened her eyes in a daze. Gu Baozhu had already put on her dress and was about to rush out with a whip in her hand.

A woman's scream was heard from not far away.

Heartbreaking.

All the hairs on Qin Yuan's body stood up.

Now he was completely awake, and without caring about anything else, Qin Yuan hurriedly shouted: "Baozhu!"

At this time, everyone was in a panic and had no time to stop anyone. Gu Baozhu had already rushed out of the house.

Soon the sound of horsewhips breaking through the air was heard from the roof, the tiles were crackling as they were stepped on, and the scolding of Gu Baozhu and a few others could be heard far away in the cool autumn night.

Qin Yuan hurriedly put on her coat and went to the outer room to look after the children with Madam Rong.

"You thief, stop right there..."

“…Don’t run…”

Accompanied by a sound of footsteps, there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Gu Baozhu's cries were getting farther and farther away, as if someone was chasing her.

Qin Yuan was anxious and angry, and said anxiously: "I hope Baozhu will be fine." Rong Mama said: "It shouldn't be, because Shiliu and others are protecting her. But she was so reckless, Madam will have to give her a good scolding afterwards."

Hongye couldn't help but ask, "Just a chat?"

Qin Yuan suppressed her anxiety, clasped her hands and said, "I have to tell the old lady. I really don't know what to do. I just hope she doesn't get hurt."

Aunt Rong sighed.

Gu Liuye's voice rang out from outside the door: "Third sister-in-law, are you scared?"

Through the window lattice, you can see Master Gu Liu holding a lantern, surrounded by several strong men holding torches standing in the yard.

Qin Yuan asked: "Sixth brother, we are all fine, why are you here?"

Master Gu Liu said, "Shiliu and the others are out catching thieves. I brought a few servants and guards to patrol and see if anyone has sneaked in."

The children, who had been listening to them quietly, could not help shouting, "Dad, father, we are all fine."

Gu Liuye smiled and said, "That's good. Let's go to sleep later. I can't sleep now."

Qin Yuan asked: "What's the situation outside? Is Baozhu chasing someone?"

Gu Liuye knew she was worried, so he comforted her, "It's okay, nothing happened, it's just that Madam Xu was frightened, it seems like the thief jumped into her yard and then jumped out. Baozhu and Shiliu went to chase him, so it should be fine."

Qin Yuan was relieved.

If there is only one thief, Gu Baozhu should be fine with a large group of guards protecting her.

Then he smiled and said to Master Gu Liu: "Please trouble my brother to lead the inspection."

Gu Liuye said, "Besides me, there are several other brothers here to help. They also know some martial arts. It's okay, Third Sister-in-law, just rest assured."

Wait until they leave.

Qin Yuan said to Rong Mama, "It really makes me feel at ease to see Sixth Master like this."

Rong Mama smiled and said, "Sixth Master is a man after all. Even though he is not good at household affairs and doesn't usually take care of things, he can still do these things."

Qin Yuan asked Cui Ming to simply tie her hair into a bun, pin it with a hairpin, and then put on a cloak.

Not long after, Gu Shiliu and others came back.

Qin Yuan went out of the outer room and asked questions in the side room.

Gu Baozhu was seen casually using a scarf to tie up her hair, holding a horse whip in her hand, standing among a group of guards in black uniforms, looking very proud and angrily saying, "We are a group of people, but we still let this thief get away."

Gu Shiliu hurriedly said, "Miss Qi, we still have a large group of people here. What if we run too far and fall into someone's trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"

Gu Baozhu was stunned.

After a while, he said, "Sixteen, you are right."

Seeing this, Gu Shiba said, "Although Miss Seven is heroic today, we are also afraid that the bandits may accidentally hurt Miss Seven. If it were just us brothers, we wouldn't have to worry about this."

These words were too straightforward, and Gu Baozhu's face turned dark.

Gu Shiliu hurriedly said, "Shishi is just afraid that the bandit has some ability and only wants to kill Miss Seven. Our lives are worthless. If Miss Seven is hurt, how can we have the face to go back to see the Marquis. If we die and go to the underworld, we will have no face to see the old Marquis. If the old Marquis asks me, Shishi, you can't even protect my only daughter, how can you have the face to come to see me? How can I answer?"
