"Xijiu, I won't punish you, and I won't punish your maidservant. You are right, they are not at fault but they have done a good job. Come! Reward these maids with 30 taels of silver each as a reward. "
His bodyguard complied and went to the treasury to collect the silver.
Gu Tianyi was stunned. She wanted to make trouble for Gu Xijiu by asking Gu Xietian to come. She did not expect things to turn out this way.
"Father, they offended you and obviously did not respect you …" She still wanted to change the situation.
Gu Xietian waved his hand and interrupted her, "They are loyal and should be rewarded. You don't have to say anymore! "
Gu Tianyi had to shut up.
Gu Xietian looked at Gu Xijiu, "Xijiu, why did you give such an order?"
Gu Xijiu looked down and said lightly, "Xijiu likes peace and quiet and I don't want to be disturbed. I don't want to see people coming to my place without an invitation just because they are from the Gu family. "
Gu Xijiu's face turned red and she said angrily, "Who are you talking about?!"
Gu Xijiu was not interested in her at all. She just looked at Gu Xietian, "General Gu, is my order against the family law?"
Gu Xietian shook his head, "No!" There was no such rule in the Gu family and of course, there was no such rule in the country.
Although Gu Xietian did not care about the affairs in the backyard, it did not mean that he did not know anything. He knew a little about his daughter's experience. He knew that she was bullied by her sisters and that she was not a likable person.
It was not until that day when he saw Gu Xijiu serving food and living in a shabby house that he knew what she had been through.
He felt guilty towards his daughter. He took a step forward and held Gu Xijiu's hand, "Xijiu, I have something to tell you."
Gu Xijiu took a step back and pulled her hand back, "General Gu, you can tell me anything."
Gu Xietian looked at his daughter who obviously wanted to distance herself from him. Suddenly, he regretted it.
He had seen this daughter a few times. She used to hide behind people, but when she looked at him, her eyes were filled with unconcealable desire. She longed for him to dote on her, for him to rub her head like he did with his other children, and praise her with a few words.
However, he did not! He had never shown her even this meager amount of warmth. Every time he saw her, he would either ignore her or scold her, making her cower even more. He had once seen with his own eyes that the faint light in her eyes had completely disappeared …
He was even a little happy at that time as he could take revenge on her mother who dared to abandon him and would rather jump off the cliff than look at him.
He was not sure if that woman was taken revenge but he had pushed his daughter further and further away because of his actions.
