Chapter 113 Brother-in-law, you are truly bad
The matter was not much different from what Gu Yu had guessed. As expected, something was found under the table, making Gu Qingheng look at him with admiration at this moment, clearly thinking that Gu Yu was a divine predictor!
Gu Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wang Xu had not hidden the silver notes in the latrine, otherwise he would have been really conflicted about whether to take them or not!
Bending down, Gu Yu reached out and took down the box hidden under the table. As soon as he opened the lid, he saw that it was full of silver notes and his eyes immediately narrowed into a smile. He directly collected it into his space, making it his own.
Next, Gu Yu took out a lot of paper from his space and gently crumpled it with his hands to make it a little wrinkled. Then, he put these papers into the box and put the box back in its original place.
“Brother-in-law, you are truly bad!”
Gu Qingheng, who was standing beside him, after witnessing Gu Yu’s series of actions with his own eyes, opened his mouth to speak, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but turn up. He thought that his brother-in-law had done a really thorough job!
In this way, perhaps Wang Xu would not even realize that he had lost money.
“The main room has already been turned upside down by us. Wang Xu will definitely be uneasy in his heart. So when he nervously comes to check for the silver notes, perhaps because there are people around, he will only touch them with his hands to see if the silver notes are still there… Of course, if Wang Xu is too worried and opens the box, then it cannot be hidden.”
“It’s okay, anyway, he has to find out eventually, and he won’t be able to catch us!”
Upon hearing Gu Qingheng’s words, Gu Yu raised his eyebrows, feeling very pleased with his brother-in-law’s admiring gaze. However, he then humbly stated that he could only do so much.
It had taken quite some time, and for safety’s sake, it was better for them to leave here as soon as possible.
If they bumped into Wang Xu returning later, it would be hilarious!
“Alright, get ready, we’re leaving.”
“Leaving so soon? I haven’t had enough fun yet! I still want to continue rummaging through things here to see if there are any good treasures.”
“Silly child, Wang Clan is not the only one. We’ll continue to steal from the next family.”
“Huh? Okay!”
Just as Gu Qingheng was feeling a little reluctant, Gu Yu immediately chuckled and said that the matter was not over yet.
This made Gu Qingheng’s face light up with surprise, and he quickly nodded!
To be able to continue, it was truly exhilarating!
It made one super excited!
“By the way! Brother-in-law, wait for me, I want to leave traces of our visit!”
“???”
Just as Gu Yu was about to lead Gu Qingheng away, Gu Qingheng shook his head and then stepped back into the main room.
After entering the study, Gu Qingheng directly tore down a piece of calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall. He took a brush dipped in ink from the nearby desk and began to write on the wall.
Compared to Gu Yu’s terrible calligraphy, Gu Qingheng’s handwriting at this moment was strong and powerful, with every stroke perfectly placed, making one marvel… such a young child, to have such good calligraphy, he was truly amazing!
Gu Yu leaned against the desk, watching Gu Qingheng write with the brush, and also felt that his brother-in-law’s handwriting was really beautiful.
It was so much better than his own.
However, there were different specializations for different professions.
Thinking about the handwriting of modern doctors when prescribing, Gu Yu also felt a lot of comfort.
He felt that perhaps he had studied medicine too seriously, so even his handwriting had automatically gravitated towards that of doctors.
While Gu Yu was comforting himself like this, Gu Qingheng had also finished writing a line of large characters on the wall.
[Tremble! Mortals, you scum, you will suffer retribution one day.]
Looking at this line of writing, Gu Yu knew that Gu Qingheng wanted to vent his anger for Director Qingshan, so he didn’t say much. Only Gu Qingheng nodded with satisfaction at his masterpiece.
However, this handwriting felt increasingly familiar.
It wasn’t Gu Qingheng’s usual handwriting… to prevent himself from being discovered, his handwriting was also very different from his usual style.
Why did it feel familiar?
“Qingheng, this handwriting of yours… is it the mysterious person’s?”
“Yes! I saw the mysterious person’s note before and remembered his handwriting quite well, but there were too few words… it was a bit difficult to imitate, so the rest was filled in by myself.”
After thinking for a while, Gu Yu finally knew why it felt familiar.
This was the handwriting of that mysterious person!
And when Gu Yu asked his brother-in-law, Gu Qingheng also nodded, admitting that he had imitated the mysterious person’s handwriting and written this line on the wall.
After Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao went to the battlefield, Gu Qingheng, bored at the academy, began to ponder many things, including imitating handwriting.
After a period of study, Gu Qingheng’s already strong imitation ability directly improved by several levels, and he was now imitating it very skillfully.
It was precisely because of this that Gu Yu was very surprised.
He had thought that the mysterious person had appeared!
After hearing Gu Qingheng’s explanation, Gu Yu thought about how surprised even he was. How would Wang Xu react when he saw this line of writing?
He remembered that the mysterious person’s first letter was obtained from the Wang Clan.
That is, he couldn’t stay here now, otherwise, Gu Yu would definitely want to watch the excitement.
“Alright, let’s leave here quickly!”
“Mmm.”
Then, after resolving everything, Gu Yu also spoke about leaving. Gu Qingheng immediately nodded upon hearing this, and then allowed Gu Yu to put him into his space and quickly left Wang Xu’s mansion.
This outing could be said to be very fruitful.
It directly made up for Gu Yu’s previous losses.
There was even quite a bit left over.
If it was always like this, Gu Yu would really be reluctant to bring down the Wang Clan.
It was simply a cash cow!
Afterwards, Gu Yu, with Gu Qingheng, swept through the homes of important figures in the Wang Clan, taking away their hidden treasures, which would definitely make them sad and unable to eat when they discovered it.
Gu Qingheng also imitated the mysterious person’s handwriting and wrote various chuunibyo texts on the wall, which made Gu Yu want to laugh.
His brother-in-law was in his chuunibyo phase too!
After visiting all the marked places, Gu Yu also called for a carriage and took Gu Qingheng back home, preparing to rest.
Although the harvest was good, it was also tiring all the way. Although he didn’t feel anything at the time, it became apparent now.
Gu Qingheng was fine, but it was mainly Gu Yu who had to guard against being discovered all the way, which consumed a lot of energy.
Fortunately, Gu Mengyao and Gongsun Feifei had not returned yet, so he could take this opportunity to rest for a while. When Gu Mengyao returned, he could pretend that nothing had happened.
If Gu Mengyao knew about this matter, she would say that he was taking risks again.
As for this, Gu Yu and Gu Qingheng had already rehearsed their story. When Gu Mengyao asked what they did today… they would say that Gu Qingheng brought books and patiently taught Gu Yu knowledge for half a day.
They had even thought of what they taught, and there would be no flaws!
Although it was a bit troublesome, looking at the silver notes in his space, Gu Yu immediately felt that these were nothing.
As long as the money was in place, nothing was a problem!
“A’Yu, what are you smiling foolishly about?”
Gu Mengyao put down the book in her hand and looked at Gu Yu, who was spacing out, with confusion in her heart.
After she and Auntie Fei returned from the temple, Gu Yu had been secretly smiling alone, which was very abnormal.
She had only been gone for half a day. What had Gu Yu gone through?
When Gu Yu heard Gu Mengyao’s question, he also came out of his mind full of gold and silver treasures. He then looked at his little wife tilting her head in confusion, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curve upwards. He then spoke truthfully.
“I had a daydream, thinking that I was like a rat that had fallen into a rice vat, with shining silver all around me, making me extremely happy, and I was stuffing it into my space in large handfuls.”
“……”
Upon hearing what Gu Yu said, Gu Mengyao was speechless. She wondered how much of a money-grubber her little husband was!
He would be so happy when he dreamed of silver.
In that case, in the future, to appease Gu Yu, she would just give him silver.
“A’Yu, since you like silver so much, when the Emperor bestows rewards, I’ll ask for gold…”
“No, compared to heavy gold, I prefer silver notes.”
“Is that so!”
Just as Gu Mengyao was speaking, Gu Yu quickly shook his head, stating that he did not want the Emperor’s bestowed gold bars, and silver notes were more practical.
Those bestowed gold bars were piled up in his space until they were almost moldy, and he couldn’t spend them…
If he took more, it would also take up space.
Upon hearing this, Gu Mengyao kept it in mind and thought that she must prepare more in the future.
Making Gu Yu happy with silver notes was very worthwhile.
Not only did Gu Yu like to give Gu Mengyao flowers, but Gu Mengyao also wanted to give Gu Yu things that he liked.
Seeing Gu Yu’s smile would also make her feel very satisfied.
…
After Wang Xu returned from the haven of beautiful women, he had just stepped into the house and saw the messy state of affairs. His forehead was immediately covered with black lines, thinking, “Could it be Gu Yu again?”
Hadn’t he gone to the battlefield with them?
Why was he back again!
However, Wang Xu probably didn’t expect… he, Wang Xu, was not someone who didn’t learn his lesson. He had already placed the silver notes elsewhere.
Even if Gu Yu had a clever head, he wouldn’t be able to find them!
However, even though he thought this, Wang Xu rushed to the dining place. After sitting down at his seat, he reached out and felt that the silver notes in the box were not lost, and his heart was immediately put at ease.
When he returned to the main room and saw the mess in the room, Wang Xu was very displeased. This made him directly call the butler waiting outside and scold him severely.
“What is going on? How are you guarding the house?”
“Master, I didn’t see anyone enter!”
“You didn’t see? You didn’t see before, can’t you find it now? Raising a bunch of freeloaders, really… come back, don’t look anymore.”
However, Wang Xu suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence.
He was too eager to check if the silver was lost earlier and didn’t pay much attention. When Wang Xu arrived at the study at this moment and saw the writing on the wall, he broke out in a cold sweat and was terrified.
An adult, has come over?? ?
