During the time they were on the way to the Dragon Country, Uncle Gu and his grandson learned the language of the Dragon Country through the people on the boat, and now they can communicate with the people of the Dragon Country without any barriers.
After setting foot in the imperial capital, they were confused for a short time. After asking around, they found an introduction from an intermediary and found a remote small courtyard. They bought it with the money they earned from fishing in the past few days and settled there temporarily.
There is always a place to stay, even if you may not live there for a long time. Having a place to stay when you are away from home will make you feel more at ease.
Uncle Gu spent a lot of money to buy this remote courtyard. Prices in the imperial capital were too expensive.
You definitely can't make much money by fishing, let alone earn enough money to buy a small courtyard in the Imperial Capital of Dragon Kingdom by fishing in a few days, but it's nice to see who is fishing.
After all, Mr. Gu is also a late-stage congenital martial arts practitioner. Even though there are a lot of people in the mythical realm of the Dragon Kingdom, his late-stage innate cultivation has surpassed more than 95% of people even in the Dragon Kingdom. Making money is still very simple. Get some.
It is not difficult to catch precious fish, and some people buy them.
People who are late-stage innate are really not weak. As long as they don’t seek death, it is actually very simple to live a good life, even in the Dragon Kingdom. This is why Old Man Gu can buy the money for the yard in a short period of time and make friends with merchants in the imperial capital. He is like this
With cultivation and no enmity, no one would mind forming a good relationship.
After settling down, it was time to think about how to live in the future. Old Man Gu understood the principle of sitting back and having nothing, not to mention that he didn't have much money left after buying the small courtyard.
But the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom has no place for him to fish and hunt, so he can only slowly find a living. He has Gu Xiaoyu to take care of, so he will definitely not work as a guard for others, nor will he do anything evil, so he can earn a living.
It’s hard to find a job that pays quickly and is leisurely.
"Xiaoyu, please don't go out at home. We estimate that we will live here for a while. You can clean up a bit, and grandpa will look around to see if he can find any work. He can also buy some things and come back. We won't go far. He's here
"Around", Old Man Gu ordered and went out.
If I hadn't picked up Brother Bai one day, maybe I would still be that pearl-diverting girl who, on a sudden day, got married to a person I didn't hate through the introduction of a matchmaker and lived a normal life.
Of course, Gu Xiaoyu is not a stupid person. It is true that he can no longer tolerate other people in his heart, but he will not do stupid things. Even if he wants to live a good life for his grandfather, the worst he can do is never marry.
"If I had been given a few more years, I wouldn't have been so overwhelmed. It's a pity."
In a joyful atmosphere, a young woman was dressing herself up in the mirror, and was being served by a maid trying on a wedding dress.
Upon hearing the news, Gu Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, but only for a moment. There was a flash of bitterness in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "Grandpa, I understand."
In a separate courtyard attic, there is the residence of the third lady of the Zhou family.
People who have never been an elder will never understand how much the elders have silently paid for the younger ones.
"Okay, okay, I've also heard that they are looking for embroiderers there." Old man Gu nodded repeatedly. As long as his granddaughter is happy and not as depressed as before, he will support whatever she does.
She is not someone who is willing to be ordinary, and she is not frail or sickly as the outside world reports. She was indeed in poor health when she was a child, but people like the Zhou family have long since nursed her back to health. She even has an innate intermediate level of cultivation. She is just a low-key person.
I have been misunderstood by the outside world until now.
"Now that it has been registered with the government, he and I are already husband and wife. We only have a wedding to go. We will spend a lifetime together. As a wife, I naturally hope that my husband will stand taller. Since you have to hone yourself to take that step, then I
I will help you find Gu Xiaoyu and let her appear at our wedding. Just when we have finished praying and everything is done, her appearance at that time will stimulate you to break through the shackles and take that step?
It doesn’t matter if you fail. It’s amazing that I, as your wife, will support you from now on. If you succeed, it will be my blessing as a wife. It’s not a loss. You and I had no feelings before. For the sake of our future, it’s reasonable for me to do this.
Is not it"
"No matter what, he and I are connected by fate now. He is my husband after all. Because the person he loved died, he was holding a fire in his heart. He was a little lost and didn't understand it carefully. From the information I collected, it can be seen that
Look, there seems to be something fishy about the death of Gu Xiaoyu and his grandson, but I’m afraid no one cares about such a trivial matter, and it has long been forgotten.”
"Haha, that's true," Old Man Gu said cheerfully. In fact, telling Gu Xiaoyu the news was already a sure thing.
The woman is the third lady of the Zhou family who will marry Bai Wenhao soon. She is twenty years old, with bright eyes, white teeth, and graceful temperament. She has outstanding intelligence. As a woman, she won the imperial examination in the Dragon Kingdom before she was twenty.
With the title of Juren, you can already become an official. With the energy of the Zhou family, the starting point for becoming an official will not be low.
Seeing that she was alright, Old Man Gu became even more worried, but he didn't know how to comfort her over such a thing. He was thinking about not going to that martial arts school to be a teacher. He would have to watch over his granddaughter all the time.
rest assured.
Her smart brain thought quickly, a flash of understanding flashed across her beautiful eyes, and she couldn't help but smile. The smile for a moment made the maids around her slightly absent-minded.
Gu Xiaoyu said: "Grandpa, didn't you say that you were born in the late stage? Although I don't know much about these things, I also know that they are very powerful. They only teach basic things. How can I not be chosen there? I'm afraid they can't even ask for it.
It’s a waste of talent”
'Since there is no chance, I can take another look at Brother Bai, look at him from a distance, and don't disturb him. Let's go back to our old life with Grandpa. Brother Bai has lived there and there are traces of his existence. This is enough. Grandpa has already
When I get old, I have to be filial to him. I have to learn a lot of things in Longguo. I have to learn some ways to make a living. It’s not difficult to live a good life when I go back. As long as I don’t show off, my grandpa seems to be pretty good. It’s not hard to live a simple life.
As for having so many worries, although I have never been exposed to martial arts, my grandfather's cultivation should be able to live for a long time. I may not be able to live as long as my grandfather. What will happen to my grandfather if I am no longer here? It must be very difficult...
'
"What if Gu Xiaoyu and his grandson are not dead? Rumor has it that they are accompanied by a person from the myth realm who has a good relationship. Can the other person watch them die?"
Needless to say more about the former, the latter is related to two thousand-year-old families. The marriage between these two families is too involved, and it may also affect part of the court structure!
"It's not hard work, and it's not a happy time, so grandpa may not be able to choose it," said Mr. Gu cheerfully.
Listening to grandpa's chatter with a smile on his face, Gu Xiaoyu was also very happy and said with a sweet smile: "Really, that's great, it's just hard work grandpa."
Miss Zhou had many plans in her mind, for herself, for the sake of her husband and wife, and for the future.
She is not an ignorant child, how could she not feel her grandfather's dedication and accommodation?
"My 'husband' is also a very human being. His cultivation level was blocked but he did not seek relief from his elders. He obviously has his own purpose. Do you want to use this to sharpen yourself and take that step? Once you take that step, what will happen next?
Being blind is a trivial matter. Judging from his recent behavior, he is obviously holding back anger in his heart, which is anger towards his family. If he really takes that step, the Bai family will probably be in trouble, and the anger in his heart
, it originated from a girl named Gu Xiaoyu, who was the sweetheart he met while traveling, but was killed by King Qingjiao, which basically planted a seed of hatred towards the family in his heart."
In fact, Gu Xiaoyu had always known that her grandfather was tired from running around, but she could no longer tolerate anyone else in her heart.
"It's better that she's not dead. Since she's the one you like, I don't mind letting her be my concubine. After all, I'm very busy. With her by your side, I'll have more time. You probably don't want to stay with me anyway."
Together, we get the best of both worlds, right?”
When he said these words, Old Man Gu was gritting his teeth, and the anger in his eyes almost burst out. It had only been a few days, and Bai Wenhao had given up on marrying someone else. How could he, a grandfather, not be angry?
But he was angry, but there was nothing he could do, because neither the Zhou family nor the Bai family could afford to offend him.
But there was nothing he could do about his granddaughter becoming like this. The root of everything came from Bai Wenhao, to be precise, the Bai family, but could the Bai family be something he could afford to offend as a mere late-stage congenital?
It's actually not difficult to bow to fate. It's really stupid to persist in pursuing unrealistic things, causing injuries all over your body, and hurting the people around you.
It's just a matter of bowing to fate. I'm not a lofty person. It's not like I haven't experienced it in the past. I'll get used to it after many times.
Allowing the maid to mess around, Miss Zhou planned the future in her mind.
Gu Xiaoyu and his grandfather have been dependent on each other for so many years. Gu Xiaoyu knows his grandfather very well, and there is no way he can tell that he is deliberately hiding something.
This is where the Zhou family is. Today, the place is clad in red and green and is filled with joy. After all, a young lady has stepped out of the cabinet. Let’s not talk about the real situation, but the standards should be there.
The marriage of two young masters and young ladies from ten thousand-year-old families with no bright future is this, if not the utilization of waste.
After they got married, the two families were bound by this relationship, and it was estimated that no one would pay attention to them in a short time.
"Even if the guy named Gu Xiaoyu dies, I will find the exact same 'Gu Xiaoyu'. If I don't force you, who knows how much potential there is?"
The fact is that this kind of trick of fate happens all the time. This is the normal life of ordinary people. How many times can ordinary people experience such vigorous things in their lives?
Nowadays, in the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, there are only two things that attract the most attention. One is about Xu Shu, and the second is the marriage between the young master of the Bai family, Bai Wenhao, and the young lady of the Zhou family.
It couldn't last long. The time I spent with him was really wonderful.
Just stopped thinking about it, how uncomfortable would it be for his granddaughter? If he does something stupid, how can he, a grandfather, still live? He still wants to hold his great-grandson and enjoy the happiness of family.
Girls' emotions are always sentimental.
Uncle Gu came back not long after. He didn't go far. When he came back, he immediately felt the change in his granddaughter's mood. A hint of joy suddenly flashed in his eyes, so he smiled and said: "Xiaoyu, our grandfather and grandson's livelihood is secure."
Well, I just went out to inquire about it. There is a martial arts school nearby that is recruiting teachers. It only takes half an hour a day to teach some children basic martial arts. I will be paid three gold coins in a month. It is easier to make money than fishing. Dragon Kingdom
The people in the capital are so rich. I think they are not here to teach them martial arts. They are just looking after their children. After all, the children of rich families are precious. How can the elders tolerate their suffering?"
"Even if I get married, it won't affect my continued imperial examination. After I get the title of Jinshi, I will work on being assigned as an official. I will strive to become a big official within ten years. I will be far away from the capital and have more freedom. If I can set foot in the mythical realm in the future, I can go home."
Also has a certain right to speak'
Unfortunately, her plans were good, but the sudden marriage broke her plans. The family arrangements were not something she, a woman, could control. No matter how smart she was, there was nothing she could do. In such a family, unless she had the cultivation of the mythical realm.
However, what people are talking about is not the influence brought by the marriage between the two families. After all, no matter how great the influence is, it can be overwhelming. The two aristocratic families combined can also suppress the Dragon Kingdom royal family.
But he felt very uncomfortable. Gu Xiaoyu's current situation made him, a grandfather, very uncomfortable.
Standing in the room, facing an unfamiliar environment, Gu Xiaoyu, who had lost a lot of weight, was a little confused. She looked around, and in addition to bitterness, there was more guilt in her eyes.
She knew that this kind of thing had been expected for a long time, perhaps out of a girl's intuition. Now that she heard the news, she had completely given up. However, she still felt a little regretful and uncomfortable, but she didn't want her grandfather to worry.
She saw the clues about Gu Xiaoyu's death. When she got to know Bai Wenhao, she naturally wanted to know everything about him. She asked people to investigate Qing Wei and others who were working at the time. There was something wrong among them, and she deduced that there was a high probability that Gu Xiaoyu was dead.
The fish master and grandson did not really die.
This woman is not weak in intelligence and scheming. From a calm and onlooker's point of view, she can see many clues from the collected information. Others ignore things that they say they don't care about at all, and she immediately caught the clues.
Anyone with any brains would find it easy to pluck some wool from the Bai family. It would be unimaginable to even pluck out a single hair from the Bai family, but they, the grandfather and grandson, had never thought of it that way, not even a single thought.
Based on the current situation, Mr. Gu understands that there is a high probability that his granddaughter and Bai Wenhao are destined to have nothing to do with each other. Leaving quietly would have been the best choice. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, but his granddaughter's body and mind are tied to Bai Wenhao.
As a grandfather, I can't bear to take my granddaughter away with me.
With this in mind, Miss Zhou, now that it has become a foregone conclusion, she does not worry about it so much, but instead thinks about future plans based on the current situation.
Accepting Gu Xiaoyu is also part of the plan. She doesn't want her future life to revolve around her husband all the time. With Gu Xiaoyu by her side, it can be said to be the best of both worlds.
For his own sake, my grandfather left his hometown and came to this place hundreds of millions of miles away. He did not hesitate to expose his martial arts skills that he had concealed for many years.
The majestic teachings of the elders prevent, but support and comfort.
Ever since Yunjing sent them out of Qingjiao City that day, Gu Xiaoyu has become taciturn. He has lost more than ten kilograms in a few days. Old man Gu sees it and is anxious in his heart. Gu Xiaoyu is his
My only relative in this world is simply the flesh of my hand.
Moreover, both their grandfather and grandson are extremely peaceful people. Otherwise, they might have unrealistic dreams about their relationship with Bai Wenhao.
Thinking of this, she glanced at the pile of information in front of her, which was about her husband Bai Wenhao. Everything was very clear and clear.
Then Gu Xiaoyu pursed his lips and said: "Grandpa, I heard that an embroidery shop not far away is quite famous. I want to learn embroidery so that I can have more means of making a living in the future."
However, she was not content with this, and wanted to obtain the title of Jinshi, so that she would be qualified to be a high official. Although she could not reach the third rank, she could at least become an important official.
One of the grandfather and grandson "almost" became the young lady of the Bai family, and the other almost became the young master and father-in-law of the Bai family. But now they are happy just to make a living. It can only be said that fate has played a trick on them.
In fact, she also knew that she and Bai Wenhao were probably destined to be together. During this period, he also thought a lot. A good man is hard to find, and meeting is fate. How sweet it is when we are together, but how cruel it is when we face the facts.
The young master of the Bai family is really not worthy of him.
Moreover, if her husband can really take that step and help him find the girl he likes, it will not be too bad for her senses. Ms. Zhou does not want her husband and wife to be like enemies in their married life.
While talking and laughing, Gu Xiaoyu suddenly said: "Grandpa, if you have anything to say, just say it. I know you are worried about me. It's like this now. No matter how bad or bad you get, I can hold on."
"If I have the chance, I will take one more look at Brother Bai. I will be satisfied with just one look. Then I will find a way to go back with my grandfather. From now on, I will stop thinking about it, bury the past in my heart, live a good life, and take care of Grandpa. As long as Brother Bai is well
, I have no regrets, just treat it as a story of an unexpected encounter in each other's lives, and I will guard this beautiful story and silently bless Brother Bai..." Gu Xiaoyu silently made a decision in his heart.
As for whether there might be any hidden secrets in it, he would think so much about it. The bottom line is that his granddaughter has been wronged.
Above the capital, a huge floating island hangs high, with rising clouds and mist below, surrounded by rays of light, and countless beautiful pavilions and pavilions on it.
Once he made the decision, Gu Xiaoyu immediately felt much better. A relieved and helpless smile appeared on his face, and he quietly started cleaning his new home.
People pay attention to this matter because the marriage between the two families is just a bundle of interests. To put it bluntly, the two protagonists of this marriage are just abandoned children of the two families. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as waste. Otherwise,
, the two had no relationship before, so why did they get married in such a hasty way?
Two such big families also want to save face. If it were a normal marriage, they would probably have started building momentum already.
Hearing this, Old Man Gu opened his mouth, thinking that he still couldn't hide it, so he looked at Gu Xiaoyu worriedly, pondered for a moment and still struggled: "Xiaoyu, grandpa went out before and heard a news, that Bai Wenhao, in recent days
I just got married to Miss Zhou’s family. The two of them can be regarded as a perfect match and they are both from big aristocratic families. Now that the news has spread, the Zhou family and the Bai family are setting up a banquet."
This smart girl really took every aspect into consideration.
Rumor has it that Bai Wenhao, the young master of the Bai family, has been disabled and his cultivation level has been sealed. Although he can lift the seal, he is blind and his life is probably over. It is almost impossible to go further. Let this person
It is a normal operation for a large family to tie up a young master with no future to benefit from marriage.
Uncle Gu is not stupid. In fact, he knows that his granddaughter is not worthy of Bai Wenhao. Even if the other person is blind and useless, after all, he is the young master of the Bai family of Longguo. How can his granddaughter be qualified?
Of course, he was more worried about Gu Xiaoyu and watched nervously, fearing that she would suddenly lose her mind and do something stupid after hearing the news.
In this way, it was part of her plan to find Gu Xiaoyu to stimulate Bai Wenhao at the wedding. If it worked, how many detours would she, the first wife, have to make to help her husband take that step and untie his knot?
There won't be any losses if it doesn't work. After all, it's just a try. The gamble is a big one, but it won't be a loss anyway.
It's a pity that after picking up Brother Bai, his identity means that he will not be able to live an ordinary life with him. In fact, I understand how a person who talks like Brother Bai can be ordinary. Sooner or later, he will leave.
Then the young lady from the Zhou family is in a similar situation. She has been frail and sick since she was a child and has never been able to practice martial arts. If she had not been born into the Zhou family, it would be a question whether she could live to this day. No matter how beautiful she is and how proficient in poetry and songs, what use is her intelligence?
After all, extraordinary people are only women. Women from the Dragon Kingdom can be officials, but they cannot be the top officials.
As for why she was pushed out to marry that 'trash' Bai Wenhao even though she was in good health, had a good future, and was even more beautiful, Ms. Zhou knew this very well. It was because she was jealous.
, some people felt that their existence was dangerous to them, so they pressed themselves down impatiently.
So why don't you just go with the flow and get out of the whirlpool full of intrigues around you?
In fact, it was not impossible for her to avoid this marriage, but after getting to know Bai Wenhao, she saw an opportunity. If she missed such an opportunity, she might not have it.
If Bai Wenhao has already entered the mythical realm, will it be his turn to do such a good thing as marrying him?
Maybe there is a lot of gambling involved, but what if it works out? Besides, if you are born in such a family, your destiny is not up to you. It is not the same with who you marry. Your own identity and the so-called marriage are often just a formality. In this case,
In a family, it is simply an unrealistic extravagance to find someone who is like you and spend your whole life. Bai Wenhao himself is a living example.
"My husband, for the sake of our future, please don't let me down," Miss Zhou said in her heart as she looked into the distance through the window.
