Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

Chapter 213. The Maid
Even if others had objections to Gu Baijiang's decisions, they could only swallow them.

They didn't see the other person help the three of them up, but they just sat together and kept talking. This side of their father-in-law was something they had never seen before. They had never seen him talk to his mother-in-law like this during holidays.

"An Tong, bring a cup of hot water to Madam Xu and the two aunts," Gu Baijiang said, feeling a little thirsty as he spoke, but he didn't forget to be considerate of his lady first.

Gu Antong's face darkened upon hearing this; this meant she had found three elders for her.

Even Xu Yulan couldn't sit still anymore. The old man liked to entertain his old flames, which was just a good deed, but there was no need to drag everyone into it.

What kind of aunt is this? Does that mean the elders should also change how they address her?

Especially the three women, upon hearing this title, actually sat there without moving an inch. Does that mean they tacitly agreed?
No, where do they get the nerve?
Gu Antong did not agree immediately, but looked at Liu Yun instead.

"An Tong, why don't you hurry up and pour water for Madam Fan and Miss Fan? It's all my fault as the eldest daughter-in-law; I've forgotten to entertain our distinguished guests."

Gu Antong's eyes lit up, and she immediately said obediently, "I understand, Mother."

As he spoke, he took the water bag from the side and found three bowls.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the three bowls still had leftover rice stains from the previous meal on them.

She placed the bowls in front of them and poured each of them a small half-bowl. It wasn't that she didn't want to pour more, but the car was swaying, and if the water spilled on the car, they would be the ones who suffered in the end. "Madam Fan, Miss Fan, please have some water."

Gu Baijiang's face immediately fell when he was disobeyed in this veiled way, but at this moment he was still able to distinguish between right and wrong, so he didn't say anything more, which was considered tacit agreement.

Xu Shuanghong and her daughter, however, froze for a moment, and also became wary of Gu's eldest daughter-in-law.

"She really is a beautiful girl. Her eyes look just like Bai Jiang's. You're going to have a lucky future." Whether it was a genuine compliment or an attempt to disgust Liu Yun and her daughter, Xu Shuanghong said, taking Gu Antong's hand and patting it affectionately.

Thinking of her grandfather's face, Gu Antong's arm stiffened, but she said politely, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam Fan. I will definitely be filial to my grandfather in the future."

“It’s just that your two aunts are shy by nature,” Xu Shuanghong said with an especially warm smile, not wanting to be a generation younger for no reason. “I’ll have to trouble you to take care of them more in the future. If they were half as sensible as you, I would be happy.”

“Mrs. Fan, the two Miss Fans are very nice, and I am about the same age as them. We sisters will help each other in the future.”

Xu Shuanghong hadn't expected this little girl to be so clever. It seemed like the kind of mother she was raising—she was very wary.

Since things had come to this point, she couldn't force the issue any further, since they had just arrived and could get to know each other better over time.

Thinking of this, she laughed heartily, "You are all good girls, and you will all be well in the future."

Liu Yun secretly gave her daughter an approving look. That damned old woman actually set a trap for her daughter; she's definitely up to no good.

Gu Baijiang's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he watched all of this with a smile.

Soon, the group learned that the poor mother and her two daughters had sought refuge with the Gu family.

Following behind the Gu family, Chen Dafu clicked his tongue a few times. This Lord Gu is truly old in years but young at heart. Doesn't he realize his current state? Even at this moment, he still knows how to protect a flower. I wonder if she's a wild flower or a tyrant. Following the Gu family, there's always a good show to watch.

“These three women look like they have ill intentions. What do you think Lord Gu is thinking?” Madam Chen gave her children and grandchildren a warning look. She would rather they remain single than let them bring such people back.

"What else could he be thinking? Either he's lustful or he has ulterior motives," Chen Dafu replied casually, though he was also trying to guess Gu Baijiang's intentions.

As for the claim of lust at first sight, he doubted it; there were probably other factors he didn't know about.

Who came up with this despicable trick of using a beautiful woman on a disfigured old man?
Ming Peifeng, who was following behind the group, also received the news. He immediately summoned his men and told them to report the situation as soon as possible.

This matter needs to be investigated by the master. If it really is a case of ulterior motives, it's probably just a few individuals. I wonder who came up with such a brilliant idea.

Little did they know that this flawed and foolish trick actually had a surprising effect.

When the car stopped to rest, people around the Gu family witnessed this amazing scene.

Gu Baijiang, who always had a cold face and hid in the carriage, was actually sitting there chatting with Xu Shuanghong despite his terrible appearance.

His second son's eyes were practically glued to those two girls.

Xu Yulan threw the firewood heavily in front of them. "Husband, with so many more people now, we definitely won't have enough firewood for today. Why don't you hurry up and find some more?"

"You guys said before that you don't keep idle people at home, but it turns out you can keep women."

Xu Yulan grew angrier the more she thought about it. Wasn't she a woman too?
What do those two little bitches have that I don't? They're younger than me.
That damned Gu Kaichen, can't he learn properly from his brother? Didn't he see that his brother-in-law didn't even glance at those three women when he came in and out? If he did manage to catch a glimpse, his eyes were filled with disgust.

I really want to gouge out Gu Kaichen's eyes and smash them onto those two women so he can see them to his heart's content.

Gu Kaichen still had some sense of shame, but perhaps feeling that he had lost face in front of the beauty, he glared at Xu Yulan before turning around to gather firewood.

“Second Young Madam is right,” Xu Shuanghong immediately stood up tremblingly, and pulled her two daughters up as well. “I wonder what kind of work we need to do. Second Young Madam, please give us your instructions.”

"Don't listen to her nonsense," Gu Baijiang reached out and pulled her to sit next to him. "You're an elder, there's no reason for you to do things for me."

"Meilin and Meibao, don't be shy. I'll have Antong show you around, and you'll feel better once you're more comfortable."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yun almost ground her teeth to dust, but quickly, her eyes lit up, and she stopped what she was doing. "Father, I also think it would be good to let these two girls keep An Tong company. Our Tong'er's hands have gotten rough these days. You really care about your child, Father."

Gu Baijiang seemed not to have grasped the role Liu Yun was giving the two girls, and nodded thoughtfully, "What Liu said makes sense. From now on, let these two girls stay by An Tong's side."

Liu Yun was overjoyed to hear this. Her daughter was a precious gem, and how could she be without servants by her side?

Xu Shuanghong's expression changed, but she couldn't say anything to refute it at this moment.

He could only laugh and say, "You two girls should thank your sister-in-law properly; she's willing to help you..."
