Chapter 157: Simple and foolish sweetie
After opening the letter sent by Monk Jiekong, Gu Yu carefully read the contents of the letter, and his expression suddenly turned surprised.
Afterwards, when Gu Qingheng curiously leaned over, Gu Yu immediately put the first page of the letter into his space.
His refusal to let Gu Qingheng see it made Gu Qingheng’s mouth twitch speechless. He wondered what was written on the letter that made his brother-in-law so nervous.
He wouldn’t even let him take a glance, which made him more and more curious!
However, Gu Yu directly ignored Gu Qingheng’s curious gaze and continued to read the second page of the letter.
The content on the later pages was not as impactful as the first page, so Gu Yu immediately handed it to Gu Qingheng, who was full of curiosity, after reading it.
If he didn’t give it to him, Gu Qingheng’s constant circling around would have made Gu Yu dizzy…
“Brother-in-law, what does the letter mean? I don’t understand it.”
After Gu Qingheng finished reading the entire letter, his face showed a confused expression. He felt like he understood it, but upon careful consideration, it wasn’t quite like that.
When he couldn’t figure it out, Gu Qingheng immediately looked at Gu Yu.
His brother-in-law knew that old monk, so they must have had some common code, which is why others couldn’t understand the contents of the letter.
“Even you don’t understand, and I should?”
“…”
However, Gu Yu directly shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn’t understand either.
This made Gu Qingheng twitch his mouth speechlessly, feeling that his brother-in-law was fooling him to get revenge for the earlier mention of drunkenly taking off pants!
Although it was just a casual mention, based on Gu Qingheng’s understanding of his brother-in-law, he could actually do that…
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore! Although I don’t understand the “zhi hu zhe ye” on it, I can roughly guess the general meaning… it says that Linfeng Kingdom has been facing one misfortune after another this year, and there will be major changes.”
“What!!!”
Afterwards, Gu Yu didn’t continue to tease his younger brother-in-law.
However, after hearing Gu Yu’s words, Gu Qingheng’s eyes were full of suspicion, thinking if that old monk who came to their house was a骗人 (piàn rén – deceiver)?
Currently, Linfeng Kingdom was not in any danger.
Especially since several surrounding countries had been repelled, and in the coming years, they would not dare to run amok in Linfeng Kingdom again.
So, why would they say that Linfeng Kingdom would have great changes???
“I know what you’re thinking, but Monk Jiekong is not lying.”
Just as Gu Qingheng understood the dark-hearted and black-handed Gu Yu, Gu Yu also understood this naughty younger brother-in-law.
Seeing the expression on Gu Qingheng’s face at this moment, Gu Yu immediately knew what he was thinking, and then helplessly said that Jiekong was telling the truth.
If Gu Yu hadn’t met Jiekong before, he would definitely have thought that the other party was a monk who came to cheat money and was talking nonsense that only fooled people.
However, after Jiekong mentioned that Gu Yu was of royal bloodline, Gu Yu knew that the monk had true abilities.
After all, apart from Gu Mengyao and her brother, Gu Yu had not told anyone else about the royal bloodline.
And the clues at the time were scattered, and even the organization supporting the royal bloodline had not noticed. How could Jiekong, a monk from a temple far outside the capital, know about it!
In the absence of any explanation, fortune-telling is more convincing.
Therefore, when Jiekong mentioned that Linfeng Kingdom would have great changes this year, Gu Yu firmly believed it.
“Brother-in-law, you can’t just naively believe it just because he looks like an eminent monk! If you do, you won’t be the old and cunning old fox anymore, but a simple and foolish sweetie!”
“…”
However, even if Gu Yu believed it, Gu Qingheng didn’t necessarily believe it.
While speaking, Gu Qingheng shook his head with a look of pity, which was really irritating.
“If I hadn’t seen the abilities of the old monk Jiekong, why would I believe him so easily!”
“Abilities? Did he predict anything right?”
“He predicted that I am of royal bloodline, what do you think!”
“What!!!”
Since he was no longer allowed to leave the Gu Residence to inquire about gossip, Gu Qingheng hadn’t been as surprised as he was today for a long time!
At this moment, hearing that Monk Jiekong had guessed his brother-in-law’s true identity, Gu Qingheng’s initial suspicion immediately vanished, and he became curious about how Jiekong calculated fortunes.
Being able to know that his brother-in-law was no ordinary person proved that Jiekong’s fortune-telling skills were very powerful!
If he could also tell fortunes, combined with inquiring about gossip, it would be especially useful!!!
“Anyway, what Monk Jiekong says won’t be wrong! Now, we should be prepared!”
“Prepare?”
“If I’m not mistaken, there might be war again. At that time, your sister will go to the battlefield, and I will have to follow! In case…”
While talking to Gu Qingheng, Gu Yu was momentarily careless and almost let the cat out of the bag, so he immediately took back his words.
He then looked up at Gu Qingheng with some guilt, wanting to see if this clever younger brother-in-law had noticed anything just now!
Fortunately, Gu Qingheng didn’t care.
At this moment, his attention was entirely focused on thinking about what the change in Linfeng Kingdom would be!
If it really was a war as his brother-in-law said, then his father and sister would have to go to the battlefield again…
“Don’t worry, even if Linfeng Kingdom has to go through all kinds of hardships, it will eventually get through it! Monk Jiekong clearly wrote ‘the path ahead is winding but will eventually lead beyond the bend’ at the end of the last page of the letter!”
“I hope so! I really don’t want my father and sister to go to the battlefield again. Although their martial arts are very powerful, the battlefield is a place where swords and sabers have no eyes…”
“Don’t be so pessimistic either! Although there will be difficulties, we just have to step over them! Think about our life in Yang Family Village in Lian Town at the beginning, we felt heartache even when we ate an egg. Look at us now, it’s completely different.”
Seeing the worry in Gu Qingheng’s eyes, Gu Yu immediately comforted him.
Gu Yu wasn’t worried about the future changes.
He would deal with the challenges as they came.
The boat would naturally float straight when it reached the bridge.
The Gu family had received quite a bit of care from Empress Bai Qian, so when a war broke out, they naturally had to be the first to charge forward.
What you gain is what you pay.
There is no harvest in this world without paying a price, and Gu Yu was very clear about this.
Therefore, he didn’t say much about Gu Mengyao going to the battlefield.
Anyway, wherever Gu Mengyao went in the future, he would follow.
What’s more, if Gu Mengyao were pregnant at that time, Gu Yu felt that he would have to be even more attentive and follow her closely!
Briefly put, the content of the first page of the old monk Jiekong’s letter… is that Gu Mengyao will conceive twins this year, and mother and child will be safe regardless of whether she goes to the battlefield.
Two at once!!!
