Chapter 180 Gu Yu Smiled
Suddenly seeing the envelope left by Qiu Ju, Gu Yu couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.
Although he had expected Qiu Ju to contact him, could he choose another way???
He casually stuffed the envelope somewhere, and who would have thought it would be there!
It was only because his younger brother-in-law, bored, liked to wander around the mansion, otherwise…
When Qiu Ju died, he probably wouldn’t even find this letter.
Thinking of this, Gu Yu couldn’t help but shake his head. Then he didn’t think too much about it, and quickly raised his hand to tear open the envelope.
After taking out the letter paper inside, Gu Yu’s eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the content written on it.
The expression on his face was even more unpredictable, with a mixture of joy and sorrow in his eyes, becoming very complicated…
This appearance immediately made Gu Qingheng, who was standing by, full of curiosity, not knowing what was written on this piece of paper.
How did it make his brother-in-law so strange?
You know, apart from his sister, only money could make Gu Yu attach importance to it.
Could it be that he was sending silver to his brother-in-law again?
If that was the case, his brother-in-law’s luck was truly divine.
Good things that ordinary people couldn’t encounter even once in a lifetime, his brother-in-law always encountered quite a lot with ease.
Although danger always accompanied it, the harvest at the end was incredibly rich!
The more dangerous it was, the greater the harvest.
“Although it’s two days late, Qiu Ju isn’t dead yet. I’ll get ready and go to the appointment.”
“Brother-in-law, what exactly is going on!”
“It’s a long story… Not long ago, a guy who was looking for trouble used medical treatment to cause trouble, but I successfully tricked him. In order to treat his body, he didn’t hesitate to rob a lot of good stuff!”
“……”
“Originally, I planned to take that batch of treasures from him, but who knew that unexpected changes would occur halfway, and the true owner of that batch of treasures came looking for it, and nearly killed Qiu Ju… But, Qiu Ju then escaped successfully due to carelessness, but he targeted the Gu family with some information.”
After reading the content on the letter paper, Gu Yu looked at Gu Qingheng’s confused expression and didn’t hide too much, but quickly explained the whole story.
When Gu Qingheng heard this, the expression on his little face became more and more surprised. He never expected that while staying at home, why would his brother-in-law encounter such a thing?
However, listening to Gu Yu’s words, it was clear that he wanted to stage a play of “black eats black” and pocket this batch of stolen treasures for himself!
As expected, this was his brother-in-law.
Wait, could that person who came chasing after them be the man in green that he had seen before!
“Looking at the expression on your face, you’ve obviously guessed it! That’s right, that man in green’s goal is that batch of treasures… However, unlike me and Qiu Ju, his master is the owner of the treasure.”
After seeing Gu Qingheng’s expression change repeatedly, Gu Yu immediately smiled and confirmed that Gu Qingheng’s thoughts were very correct!
This made Gu Qingheng’s mouth twitch. Thinking that he had seen so many things while wandering around the mansion, his ‘luck’ was indeed too good!
“Now, whether this batch of treasures can fall into my hands depends on your help, my younger brother-in-law!”
“???”
“The man in green is named Zhou Yi. I have already met him. After a period of verbal probing, I confirmed that this person would not dare to cause too much commotion, so I want to take advantage of this loophole to successfully leave the Gu mansion!”
“Brother-in-law, explain it clearly, what do you want me to do?”
Hearing Gu Yu’s words, Gu Qingheng’s face remained confused, not knowing what his brother-in-law actually wanted him to do!
Being so secretive and making people guess, how could they guess!
If it were someone with a short temper, they might have been driven crazy by now!
“This, hehe… Come closer, I’ll tell you quietly.”
Seeing his younger brother-in-law’s curious look, Gu Yu mysteriously beckoned him, signaling Gu Qingheng to come closer and speak.
The expression of being afraid of being seen further piqued Gu Qingheng’s appetite.
He quickly leaned over and listened carefully to what Gu Yu was saying.
“What? No! I won’t do it!!!”
However, after hearing Gu Yu’s plan, Gu Qingheng immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, refusing to agree to the plan no matter what.
Just kidding, if he really did it, things would get serious!
At the very least, his father would deal with him severely!
No, no!
“Qingheng, are you really not going to help me?”
“Brother-in-law, can’t you think of another good idea? You want me to set fire to the mansion to attract Zhou Yi’s attention. I’d only do that if I had nothing better to do! Don’t mention anything else, my father’s stick is terrifying!”
Afterwards, listening to Gu Yu’s pleading words, Gu Qingheng’s small face drooped.
This kind of thing that only brats would do, he, Gu Qingheng, was already past the age of playing with fire!
Besides, how could he play with fire to set the Gu mansion ablaze…
“I’ve already thought about this! You can say that you are learning medical skills from me and want to refine some nourishing pills to give to your father, to fulfill your filial piety!”
“In that case, my father won’t beat me?”
“This… I dare not guarantee it! It still depends on what Father-in-law thinks, I cannot guess completely accurately.”
“Then I’ll still get beaten! No, no, I’m not looking for a beating. I won’t get beaten for nothing!”
Afterwards, listening to Gu Yu’s bad idea, Gu Qingheng refused again.
Obviously, he wouldn’t do something that would clearly result in a beating!
Even if…
“If you help me this time, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I will pay a considerable reward.”
“……”
“One million taels!”
“Deal!”
Just as Gu Qingheng was about to secretly make a vow, Gu Yu’s next sentence successfully stopped him from thinking further.
Afterwards, he agreed very decisively!
If for no other reason, it was because the generosity of the reward far exceeded Gu Qingheng’s expectations.
His brother-in-law had definitely struck it rich!
Otherwise, such a generous reward would be completely impossible in reality, and could only be imagined in dreams.
However, now there was no need to think too much.
Anyway, no matter how you looked at it, it was a very profitable business!
As long as he set a fire and got beaten by his father, he would get a million taels of silver.
Such a good thing, it was truly impossible to find even with a lantern!
Thinking of this, Gu Qingheng was overjoyed and no longer had the reluctance he had before.
And Gu Yu, seeing that his younger brother-in-law was so easily persuaded, couldn’t help but mutter to himself… If he had known it was so easy, he would have done it long ago!
Fortunately, it was still alright. After careful deployment, he would be able to leave the mansion to meet Qiu Ju!
This time, he would definitely find out where the treasures were hidden.
He lowered his head and looked at the medicine bottle in his sleeve, then thought about its effect.
Gu Yu smiled.
