Father Gu ignored Lu's words, turned to Gu Chengyu and asked softly: "Xiaobao! Tell me, what does your second uncle want to do when he comes back this time?"
Gu Chengyu was shocked, and he was still a little stunned. What did his father mean?
Could it be that you saw something wrong with Gu Changbai? He's not that cool, is he?
"father"
Dad Gu suddenly interrupted Gu Chengyu's words and ran to the window to take a look into the courtyard. He found that there was no movement there, so he turned around.
Mrs. Lu was also startled by Father Gu's mysterious actions, "Old man, what are you doing? You act like a thief in your own home."
Mrs. Lu complained, but her voice was not loud.
Father Gu sat down on the kang, "Did your second uncle really come back to see us? Why don't I think it's different?"
In fact, Father Gu is just a feeling! When Gu Changbai talks about himself, there are many evasions in his words.
Besides, Father Gu saw that Xiaobao's attitude was wrong when facing Gu Changbai, and he looked not very enthusiastic.
Of course, Dad Gu knew what kind of person Xiaobao was. He would never look down on his poor relatives at home. If there was no special reason, he would never look down on Gu Changbai just because he was poor.
"Dad! You really guessed it!" Gu Chengyu gave Dad Gu a thumbs up. He was able to guess this. Sure enough, ginger is still hotter.
Dad Gu quickly became nervous and said, "What is going on? Your second uncle is staying well in the south, why do you want to come to the capital? He has no money. If he can't meet you, wouldn't he starve to death?
?”
This is one of the questions that makes Mr. Gu suspicious. Although Gu Changbai said that he came to the capital to find his eldest granddaughter, why did he bring his family with him? Doesn't it cost money to live in the capital?
Or do they know that Xiaobao is in the capital? But how is this possible?
Anyway, he couldn't tell a good story, but there were many doubts in what Gu Changbai just said, and he couldn't even list them out.
Gu Chengyu thinks that his father is quite intelligent and his IQ is not low!
"It's a long story." Gu Chengyu was just about to make an opening statement to explain the matter clearly to Daddy Gu, when he was interrupted by Daddy Gu.
"Then let's make a long story short!"
Gu Chengyu was speechless for a moment.
"According to what you said, my second brother has already planned to meet you in the capital?" Dad Gu asked after pondering for a while.
"Although no conclusive evidence has been found, various doubts indicate that he came to the capital just for me."
Gu Chengyu nodded slightly. Compared with his father who was not surprised at all, his mother seemed very surprised.
"What? You mean he dragged his family to the capital just to plot against you? But didn't he say he was looking for his eldest granddaughter?"
Lu was a little confused. Although Gu Changbai's reason was a bit far-fetched, it was not impossible.
Mrs. Lu had this question because Gu Chengyu didn't tell her parents that Hua Lian was Gu Changbai's eldest granddaughter.
In fact, it was quite embarrassing to talk about it. After all, he had to tell his parents when he went to visit a brothel. Although he didn't do anything shameful, he still couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Actually, there is such a thing as looking for a granddaughter. However, his granddaughter had some connection with me before. It's a long story."
Then, with his parents looking in disbelief, Gu Chengyu hesitantly recounted the process of getting to know Hua Lian.
When he said this, Father Gu and the others felt that they were all in bad shape.
"You mean that girl Hua Lian is my second brother's long-lost granddaughter, and she was sold to a brothel? And you rescued her?"
Dad Gu grabbed the cigarette pole in surprise. This was such a coincidence. Could it be that someone had plotted against him?
"Xiaobao, what?" Mrs. Lu didn't care about this, she just wanted to know whether the relationship between Xiaobao and Hua Lian was really innocent.
The young master is having fun outside. Since he has gone to a brothel, it would not be a rare thing if he really calls her "sister".
Besides, her little baby is so good-looking, aren't those sisters taking advantage?
It's just that Hua Lian is a member of the Gu family, or Xiaobao's niece. If word spreads, will others use it as a slander?
But when the words came to her lips, she suddenly didn't know how to ask. Her son was older, so she couldn't ask about this.
As soon as Gu Chengyu saw Lu's expression, he knew what she was worried about.
"Ahem! Don't worry, the relationship between me and Hua Lian is innocent. Originally, she was sent elsewhere by me, and I wanted to find a place farther away to marry in the future. But things changed later, and I asked someone to move her
It’s under surveillance.”
As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, Mr. Gu looked at him carefully and then nodded.
He believed in Xiaobao, who should not lie, but Lu believed in his son more than Father Gu.
Xiaobao said no, that's not it. Furthermore, when it came to Hua Lian, Xiaobao's eyes were pure, and he didn't hide away. She knew her son Mo Ruomu, and she could tell that Xiaobao had never been close to a woman.
"Then what you said about Xiaoyao being kidnapped is true?" Now that it was confirmed, Father Gu simply skipped the topic and asked another key question.
"Bu Li Shi, Xiao Yao is not dead anyway, Gu Wanfang also knows about this."
Gu Chengyu was actually very sure of this, Xiao Yao must be in the hands of those people.
"So, someone took Xiao Yao away and asked Second Brother and the others to come to the capital to get close to you in the name of looking for the eldest granddaughter. It seems that the people behind the scenes already knew about the relationship between Hua Lian and Second Brother, so they arrested Xiao Yao and threatened them.
Second brother, you want him to live in your house, right?"
Gu Chengyu nodded, "I always thought that was his plan to live in the mansion."
At present, Gu Changbai has not revealed any other purpose. He only expressed the idea of moving into his own mansion.
His father has good understanding ability and he understands everything as soon as he speaks.
"Who are those people, and why do they want to approach you? What can second brother do? He is not a human being, nor is he a court official. Is he approaching you just to live in the mansion? This is too strange."
In Dad Gu's heart, his little treasure is still a minor official, and the person behind the second brother seems to be a noble person. What can a noble person do against Xiao Bao?
"Maybe approaching me and living in my mansion is just the first step." Gu Chengyu has analyzed it before, and this is the only reason he can think of.
"Dad! Some aristocratic families and nobles in the capital may place agents in other officials' residences for the convenience of doing things. This is not uncommon."
What Gu Chengyu said is true. As long as there is any disturbance in the capital, the aristocratic families and nobles will know it immediately. This is the benefit of internal response.
No matter how defensive the host is, some clues will be revealed. These people usually follow these clues to deduce what they want to know.
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she felt that what the two men said was a bit complicated.
She used to work as a maid in the Jiang Mansion, and she always served the old lady. If the master had anything important to do, he would avoid girls like them. How could she know the secrets here?
