Chapter 69 – His Brother-in-law’s Turn Today!
“We just brought them back and are sending them away again. Isn’t that a bit… much?”
“It’s fine. Director Qingshan is an old acquaintance, he won’t refuse… The main thing is that Qingheng and Xi Yang are both here. They always harbor a fluke mentality. It’s best to send them to Wuming for proper discipline. That way, they can grow more.”
Gu Yu racked his brains to send away the lightbulbs.
However, it was clearly quite effective.
As Gu Mengyao listened to Gu Yu, her face showed an expression called “heart moved,” which made Gu Yu’s lips curl up slightly when he saw it, knowing that things were looking up!
Although Gu Yu’s intention to send Gu Qingheng and Xi Yang away was not entirely pure, a small part of it was to allow the two of them to grow faster.
With Wuming at Qingshan Academy, let alone Xi Yang behaving himself, even Gu Qingheng wouldn’t be able to cause much trouble.
It was very suitable for practicing martial arts and building a solid foundation early.
Besides, Gu Qingheng and Xi Yang usually had nothing to do. Practicing martial arts at Qingshan Academy could also cultivate their character.
Gu Yu, speaking without experiencing the pain himself, thought this way and felt even more like a dutiful brother-in-law and boss, worrying himself sick over his brother-in-law and employee!
“Since that’s the case, let’s send them tomorrow. We’ll have dinner at home today.”
“Mm, wife, don’t feel sad. As long as Qingheng builds a solid foundation in martial arts at Qingshan Academy, we can bring him back! Qingshan Academy is just to temper his patience, and it will be much easier to teach him afterwards.”
Upon hearing Gu Mengyao finally agree, but with a hint of reluctance on her face, Gu Yu quickly comforted her, wanting to prevent his wife from being too sad.
Once Gu Qingheng and Xi Yang’s laziness was worn down, they would practice diligently when brought back, instead of always thinking of slacking off.
However, when he thought about it, his brother-in-law wasn’t exactly cut out for martial arts, yet he had changed significantly during this time.
It proved… there was no such thing as suitable or unsuitable, only whether one was willing to practice.
Perhaps he should practice too…
Never mind, it was too tiring. It was more comfortable to lie in bed and rest.
He wasn’t suited for practicing martial arts!
Thinking this, Gu Yu, when eating lunch later, looked at his brother-in-law’s happy smiling face and sighed in his heart.
When they arrived at Qingshan Academy tomorrow, Gu Qingheng probably wouldn’t be smiling anymore.
For now, let’s eat well!
With that thought, Gu Yu uncharacteristically picked up his chopsticks, picked up a dish, and put it into his brother-in-law’s bowl. Seeing this, Gu Qingheng’s face was filled with question, wondering if his brother-in-law had taken the wrong medicine.
Why was he so strange today!
Normally, let alone picking up food for him, it was already a blessing if he didn’t fight him for their favorite dishes.
“Brother-in-law, did my sister bully you? Why are you suddenly changing your ways? But don’t expect me to help you, I can’t even save myself right now, so I won’t manage you!”
“Brother-in-law, you’re overthinking it. Eat your food quickly!”
“I really won’t help. Even if you try to be nice, brother-in-law, it’s useless.”
As Gu Qingheng spoke, he didn’t stop his chopsticks, quickly eating the food Gu Yu had given him, lest his brother-in-law change his mind and take it back.
Gu Qingheng believed that Gu Yu was capable of doing such a thing!
But even if he ate the food, Gu Qingheng still wouldn’t help.
A part of the reason he was working so hard to practice martial arts now was at his brother-in-law’s suggestion!
Therefore, not only would he not help, but he would also put salt in the wound later!
Thinking of this, Gu Qingheng happily ate the food and felt incredibly comfortable.
Haha, his brother-in-law’s turn today!
…
Shen Xue looked at the simple furnishings in the room, thinking that this was where she would live for three months.
Before, to save her master, let alone staying in Lian Town for three months, even for three years, Shen Xue wouldn’t have hesitated.
However, Gu Yu didn’t say much.
Only three months.
After three months, if she didn’t want to continue living here, she could go wherever she wanted in the future.
Now, she couldn’t return to the Tianshan Sect. Shen Xue felt that her only option was to return to her own country… However, after practicing the martial arts of the Tianshan Sect, her appearance attracted even more attention than before. She didn’t know if the decision to return was good or bad.
No matter how good Linfeng Kingdom was, it was ultimately not her destination.
Thinking of this, Shen Xue couldn’t help but sigh. She didn’t stay in the room any longer, but opened the door and walked outside, planning to tour Qingshan Academy and see the environment here.
Presumably, that person was also waiting for her to come out.
Thinking of that wooden-headed person, Shen Xue didn’t know what to say at the moment, only feeling that things were too coincidental.
Before Gu Yu and his party returned from the Tang Sect, Shen Xue had already arrived in Lian Town, preparing to find Gu Yu to go up the mountain to treat her master’s injuries.
Although she didn’t find Gu Yu immediately, Shen Xue didn’t give up. She temporarily stayed at an inn in Lian Town, waiting for the Gu family members to return.
During this time, Shen Xue was not idle. She searched all the doctors in the vicinity of Lian Town.
However, seeing that their skills were not enough to cure her master, Shen Xue could only experience disappointment time and time again.
It was precisely when Shen Xue was desperately seeking doctors everywhere that she met Ruan Zhongjing, who had gone out because he didn’t want to hear Ruan Qingshan and Lu Xing arguing anymore. Their first meeting was when they were trapped in a pavilion to avoid the rain due to an unusual autumn rain.
The weather was gradually turning cold, but it was still raining, which was indeed quite abnormal.
However, the civilians couldn’t say anything, they could only hurriedly find places to shelter from the rain, lest they get soaked like drowned rats.
The two people sheltering from the rain in the pavilion separated from each other after merely avoiding the rain.
Afterwards, Shen Xue couldn’t recall the specific process, only knowing that when she was looking for doctors, someone always followed her.
He didn’t speak, but just followed her quietly.
When she encountered trouble, he would proactively step forward to help resolve it.
Afterwards, he would still say nothing.
This made Shen Xue very helpless. She wanted to directly drive him away, but she didn’t know his specific identity and didn’t want to provoke too much trouble.
Over time, she got used to his following.
Sometimes, Shen Xue would also say a few words to him. The two of them were not very familiar, but they were not strangers either.
However, with someone accompanying her, Shen Xue’s days in a foreign land didn’t feel too difficult to bear…
But she also knew it wouldn’t last long… She would eventually have to leave this place and return to Tianshan.
But who could have imagined that this would be the development now!
Thinking of this, Shen Xue looked at the leisurely environment of the academy, quiet without anyone disturbing her. It was indeed a good place to live.
And that person’s figure was also hidden behind the courtyard wall, but his hiding skills were not very good, so Shen Xue spotted him at a glance.
At this point, are you still not going to speak?
“Hey, I’m back again. Don’t you want to say anything?”
“It’s really good to see you again.”
