Luo Shuanghe was so angry that she laughed. "Vice Hall Master, your ability to invert right and wrong is getting better and better!"
"How is big brother inverting right and wrong? How dare a maid like you speak such nonsense! Someone, drag her away … "
Gu Tingkun raised a hand to stop Gu Yunshang and lightly said, "Justice is in the hearts of the people. Whether or not I am inverting right and wrong, why don't I explain it to the Hall Master? If the Hall Master learns that Southern Field Estate has been seized, he will be furious. At that time, the one to punish Swallow Dock will not be me, Gu Tingkun. "
Luo Shuanghe was furious but was still restrained by Gu Caiwei.
"Second Miss!"
"Big Sister Shuanghe, it's great-grandmother's birthday. Why bother her with such a small matter?" Gu Caiwei smiled at Gu Tingkun. "Vice Hall Master, it's best to turn a big matter into a small one. It's grandmother's birthday and we shouldn't cause any more problems."
"Then how do you think we should resolve this?" Gu Tingkun asked.
Gu Caiwei was naturally unaware of the schemes of her relatives. She felt as if a knife was twisting in her heart. She took a deep breath and slowly said, "The Northern Envoy of Phoenix Hall was injured and I cannot absolve myself from the blame. Why don't I give Southern Field Estate to him as compensation?"
The siblings of the Gu Family looked at each other in surprise.
Gu Tingkun said, "How can that be? That Southern Field Estate was left to you by your mother. If word of this gets out, people will think that your fourth uncle stole it from you. How can he establish himself in Jianghu then?"
"That is naturally not good," Gu Caiwei said with a smile. "Vice Hall Master, please tell him to give me something that he thinks is a treasure. Consider it a barter and it will shut everyone's mouths."
Gu Tingkun smiled and pointed at Gu Caiwei. "You girl, you always have a lot of ideas. Fine, I will tell fourth brother about this. You should quickly have the people of Swallow Dock retreat to avoid any more misunderstandings. That would not be good. "
Gu Caiwei smiled. "It is indeed not good to cause any more misunderstandings. I don't have any more estates to take out as compensation. Vice Hall Master is a reasonable person. I hope this matter will end here. "
"You little girl." Gu Tingkun laughed in spite of himself. "We haven't seen each other for only a few years. Why are you always calling me Vice Palace Master? You're so distant with First Uncle. Are you angry that I don't even visit you? You should know that Phoenix Hall has many matters. The Hall Master doesn't care much these days. Qingyou, me, and your aunts are all busy. "
Luo Shuanghe felt as if her heart was being fried but there was nothing.
"Heh, I've, I've really seen the way a great clan does things, the way a great clan does things!
"Hero Su, you, you? Do you feel suffocated? I have a pavilion at my place. Hey, don't go … "Gu Yuncai called out a few times, but he didn't even turn his head. He didn't want to say a single word to them.
Gu Yunshang sneered, "Second Lass, you've made quite a number of strange friends in the past few years. There are even bandits among them. Our Gu Clan has been clean for several generations, and ordinary nobles aren't even fit to carry our shoes for us. We have our own rules and etiquette. You, don't associate with these people in the future, do you hear me? "
Gu Caiwei's smile gradually disappeared. "My strange friend saved Envoy Beilu just now. Don't say thank you, but you shouldn't speak ill of him behind his back. What, is there no such thing as' don't gossip about others' in the Gu Family's etiquette? "
Luo Shuanghe was secretly pleased. The Second Miss didn't care if she was wronged, but if it involved her friend, she would fight to the end.
"You, what are you saying!" Gu Yunshang stomped her feet and said angrily to Gu Tingkun, "Big brother, listen to me, listen to me. If she had been raised by her side, would she have said such disobedient words? Big brother, we can't let this girl stay outside any longer. She must come back and be watched by us! "
"Little Wei," Gu Tingkun sighed. "I have failed second sister's trust. Is this how your master on the Lotus Seat taught you to speak to your elders?"
"Master often exhorted me," Gu Caiwei said coldly. "One must never be ungrateful. One must know that a drop of water must be repaid with a gushing spring. I have never forgotten this principle."
Gu Tingkun thought for a moment, then smiled. "Yes, this principle is correct. Fifth sister, go and apologize to Hero Su later. "
"What, I'll go apologize? Why?" Gu Yunshang pointed at her own nose in disbelief.
Gu Tingkun's face sank. "Because I'm your big brother. Are you going to listen or not?"
"Big … hmph, I'll go …" Gu Yunshang said angrily.
"Little Wei, are you satisfied?" Gu Tingkun asked.
Gu Caiwei's complexion relaxed a little. "What is there to be dissatisfied about?"
"Good," Gu Tingkun smiled. "Now that you've returned, don't leave. Big uncle is preparing a marriage for you. Don't worry, your husband's family is absolutely dependable …"
"There's no need," Gu Caiwei cut him off. "My marriage does not need the Deputy Hall Master to worry about it."
"What do you mean by that?" Gu Tingkun said with a straight face. "Your mother wants to call me big brother. As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. I can still decide on your marriage. From today onwards, you should stay at home and prepare for your wedding. "
"Wait!"
At this time, several people walked in from the entrance of the courtyard. The one in the lead wore a violet dress. Her appearance was bright and beautiful, but unfortunately, there was too much coldness on her beautiful face. The ones behind her were also beautiful. They wore the uniform of the Hall of Phoenix, and all of them wore expressions of righteous indignation.
When they entered the room, the one in the lead said, "How come I didn't know that the Hall Master had arranged a marriage for her?"
"Qingyou has arrived." Gu Tingkun stood up. "We're already so busy with receiving guests. There's no need for you to come see your fourth uncle."
"If I came a little later," Gu Qingyou didn't give Gu Tingkun any face. She said harshly, "Wouldn't my good-for-nothing sister become someone else's daughter? Let me tell you, without the Hall Master's approval, no one can interfere with her marriage! "
As he said this, he looked coldly at Gu Caiwei. "What are you still doing here? Come with me to receive the guests." He turned around and left, leaving the Gu Clan behind.
Luo Shuanghe saw that Gu Caiwei still hadn't moved. She hurriedly grabbed her hand and walked out, quickly following Gu Qingyou.
"What are you doing here? Do I need you to interfere in my matters?" Gu Caiwei said unwillingly.
Gu Qingyou walked quickly. "I don't want to interfere with you, but Southern Field Manor belongs to my mother. You gave it away so easily. If I don't interfere, you'll probably have to give it away too."
"That's my own business," Gu Caiwei said indifferently.
"If it weren't for the Hall Master's desire, do you think I would interfere with your matters?" Gu Qingyou sneered. "Your marriage can't be decided by your master, nor can it be decided by you. You have to go through the Hall Master. You have to marry whoever the Hall Master wants you to marry. Put away your laughable thoughts as soon as possible."
Gu Caiwei's lips curled up slightly. "Is that so? You regard the Hall Master's will as your guide. In the future, you will marry whoever she wants you to marry?"
"My husband can only marry into the Hall Master's family," Gu Qingyou said.
Gu Caiwei sighed. "Sigh, that's bad. With Yan Shiyi's personality, it's unrealistic for you to ask him to marry into the Hall Master's family. If you don't give up on him soon, I think you'll have to spend the rest of your life alone."
Gu Qingyou stopped and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? What does Yan Shiyi have to do with me?"
"Is that so? She's already seen your naked body. Do you think she still wants you?" Gu Caiwei smiled coldly.
"You!" Gu Qingyou's expression changed. She raised her hand and was about to hit him. Luo Shuanghe had been paying attention. She quickly stopped her and said, "Eldest Lady, please calm down, Young Lord. Second Young Lady is just trying to argue. Please be magnanimous and don't lower yourself to the level of a child."
"Go away and let her hit you." Gu Caiwei smiled coldly. "She has hated me for so many years. Killing me is exactly what she wants. Anyway, because of my mother, she has long wished that I was never born!"
Gu Qingyou's face suddenly turned pale. She took a few rapid breaths and slowly put down her hand. She said word by word, "After so many years, is this how you look at me?"
Gu Caiwei avoided her eyes and asked stubbornly, "Isn't it?"
Gu Qingyou stared at her for a long time. Suddenly, she smiled sweetly. She never smiled like this. It could be said that she was full of charm and had a unique style. Luo Shuanghe and several disciples were stunned. Gu Qingyou smiled and said, "Yes, I hate you. If you weren't born, my mother wouldn't have died. You've reminded me that your life was bestowed to you by your mother. It's not up to you to decide how to use it. Remember it well. "After saying that, she turned around and left.
She left in a hurry and disappeared in an instant.
"Young Lord!" Several disciples quickly chased after her.
"Second Young Lady, why do you have to do this?" Luo Shuanghe sighed.
"She ran away in a hurry because I was right." Gu Caiwei sneered. "It seems that I'm not wrong at all. Instead of hiding it, it's better to be clear so that she doesn't have to pretend and get tired. "
…
Su Xingyu went down the mountain and crossed the river outside the city. After waiting for a long time, he didn't see anyone, so he borrowed a boat and went upstream. He stopped several boats with the Void-Breaking Shuttle, but he couldn't find the person he was looking for. The other party thought that he was a robber and was scared half to death. He tried his best to appease the other party and apologized a lot.
When he returned to his ship, he felt a lump in his chest that he couldn't get out. He felt very irritated. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a large ship slowly drifting down from upstream. Such a luxurious ship unexpectedly didn't pass through the spiritual world. Instead, it drifted freely on this river. It could be considered a maverick.
On the topmost deck of the ship, two men were sitting opposite each other, drinking and talking. One of them had a head full of purple hair and was very eye-catching.
When he saw the two people, he was immediately happy. "I finally found you!" With a tap of his toes, his body leapt up like a big bird. With two leaps on the surface of the water, he landed on the big ship.
