Chapter Eleven: My Wife is the Most Amazing
Listening to Magistrate Bai’s words, Gu Yu immediately frowned.
It turned out the reason his eyelids were twitching was because of Jiaojiao Yang’s frame-up and slander!
Hmph, what a brainless guy.
Did she think that by committing suicide, she could pin the blame on him?
If she thought that, then Jiaojiao Yang was truly incorrigible.
Putting aside everything else, just relying on his father-in-law and wife’s official titles, even if Gu Yu killed someone in public, it wouldn’t have a significant impact on him.
After all, this was ancient times.
Human life was not valuable at all.
As for the saying that the Son of Heaven breaking the law the same as common people, did she really think she could get away with murder just by saying that? Go to sleep!
Privilege, understand?
If not, then he would teach the deceased Jiaojiao Yang a lesson, hoping that when she reincarnated in her next life, she wouldn’t be so brainless.
“Oh? There’s such a thing? I didn’t know why Yang Jiaojiao would falsely accuse me after her death.”
Before Mengyao could speak, Gu Yu smiled and said to Magistrate Bai.
The implication in his words directly cleared himself of suspicion.
And after seeing Gu Yu’s smile, Magistrate Bai, who had been hesitant, now knew… he had been too abrupt this time.
Although the Yang family had some relationship with Gu Yu, after all the incidents, Gu Yu had no good feelings towards the Yang family at all.
Upon hearing the news of Yang Jiaojiao’s suicide by hanging, Gu Yu’s expression remained unchanged. The smile on his lips carried a hint of sarcasm, as if he was despising Yang Jiaojiao’s low-level methods.
That’s right, such obvious frame-up and slander… anyone with a functioning brain would feel that there was something fishy about it.
Originally, Magistrate Bai had thought the same.
However, he thought that Gu Yu, having grown up in the Yang family, would still have some feelings for them.
Yang Jiaojiao’s corpse would also need to be collected and buried.
He could also take this opportunity to build a relationship with the Gu family…
Although Magistrate Bai had not returned to the capital, news about the Gu family had been constantly flowing in, making him gasp in astonishment.
It was unbelievable that the Gu family had grown to such a terrifying extent!
However, even if he didn’t believe it, he had to.
The Gu family had truly risen.
However, who knew that this time he was lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot… Gu Yu truly had no feelings for the Yang family, not even as much as a passerby.
It seemed that Yang Jiaojiao’s corpse would not be collected either.
Then she would just be thrown into the disorderly grave field.
As for that blood letter?
It would just be burned.
It was useless anyway, and keeping it might even cause misunderstandings with the Gu family.
The current Gu family was at their peak, and only a fool would oppose them!
“Ahem, perhaps the bailiffs mistook. Yang Jiaojiao was just a woman and had never attended school, so how could she write!”
“Magistrate Bai is wise. This matter is definitely a misunderstanding.”
“In that case, I will return to the county office and investigate further.”
Seeing that his cleverness had backfired, Magistrate Bai did not linger at the Gu family’s residence. He took his leave and departed from the Gu family.
His hurried footsteps made Mengyao shake her head helplessly, thinking that Magistrate Bai was too eager to please.
He even brought up matters concerning the Yang family here.
Wasn’t that asking for trouble!
“Mengyao, don’t worry. This matter with Yang Jiaojiao is like a pebble thrown into a pond. It will at most cause a splash.”
After Magistrate Bai left, Gu Yu happened to see Mengyao shaking her head and immediately spoke to comfort her, telling her not to worry too much.
No one could threaten Yang Jiaojiao, she just lost her life in vain.
“I wasn’t worried about Yang Jiaojiao. I was just thinking that Magistrate Bai shot himself in the foot this time. He used the Yang family’s affairs to find you.”
Hearing Gu Yu’s words, Mengyao shrugged at him, indicating that she was not worried about Yang Jiaojiao’s death.
It wasn’t as if they had killed Yang Jiaojiao.
She sought her own death, and no one could stop her.
She just lamented that as one’s status rose, the people around them also changed.
Like Magistrate Bai, he had previously maintained a lukewarm relationship with the Gu family, not too close.
He still felt that the Gu family was only supported by a few young lads and had no great prospects. At most, due to Gu Qing, the deputy general, he would take extra care of the Gu family.
However, now Gu Qing and Mengyao of the Gu family had rapidly advanced in their official ranks, with a bright future waiting for them to step into.
With such changes, Magistrate Bai was no longer as calm as before and was eager to build connections…
It seemed that such incidents would not be uncommon in the future, and it was better for her to get used to them early.
Fortunately, military officials were not like civil officials, otherwise, Mengyao felt that she would be even more overwhelmed.
“What’s there to say? This is a good thing! After all, no one dares to look down on our family anymore! It’s all thanks to you, my wife. You’ll have to cover for me when we go out!”
“Cover for you? I’m afraid even before I make a move, anyone who provokes you will be gone.”
Seeing Gu Yu shaking his head playfully, Mengyao couldn’t help but cover her mouth and smile, thinking that her little husband was too good at bragging.
However, now that she had a considerable official title, she could quickly resolve any future issues.
There was no way around it, this was the benefit of being an official.
“How can that be! My wife is the most amazing, simply…”
“Gu… Lord!!! Something’s happened… My uncle and Director Qingshan are fighting!”
Looking at his beautiful little wife, Gu Yu chuckled naughtily. As he spoke, he leaned towards Mengyao, intending to steal a kiss.
However, before he could get close, an anxious voice suddenly rang out.
Immediately, Gu Yu looked at Li Wang, who was panting heavily, with a dark expression, and had the urge to beat him up.
Why did someone always have to interrupt whenever he wanted to be intimate with his wife?
Really… Wait, Lu Xing was fighting with Director Qingshan?
What was going on?
He had clearly just asked the two of them to bring Director Qingshan over. Could it be that Director Qingshan had drunk too much and was acting out?
“What’s going on? Tell me slowly.”
“It’s like this. When my uncle and I went to find Director Qingshan, we originally wanted to bring Director Qingshan away directly. But after my uncle saw Director Qingshan, his emotions suddenly became agitated… As I listened from the side, I felt that something was not right.”
“Not right?”
After Li Wang rested for a moment, he immediately spoke about what had happened without any further nonsense.
When he mentioned that something felt not right, Li Wang hesitated, but ultimately spoke again.
“Listening to the conversation between my uncle and Director Qingshan, it seems I am Director Qingshan’s child.”
“…”
Hearing Li Wang’s words, Gu Yu was stunned for a moment. Then, as he thought of some clues, he immediately understood everything.
Damn it, it’s too coincidental.
How could everyone he met end up in the same place???
From now on, he wouldn’t do anything else. He would just help others find their long-lost family and friends!
