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

Chapter 310. Persuasion
Liu Yun's face froze. "Look at what my third sister-in-law is saying. No matter what, we are still sisters-in-law. Even if my third brother has been adopted, we are still from the same clan. There is no conflict of interest between us now. I just want to get along well with you. There is no need to make things so tense. In the future, we can visit each other and treat each other as relatives."

Bai Suihe chuckled lightly, "Does sister-in-law think I should believe what she says? Can I believe it?"

"Third Aunt, we know we did some things that went too far, but everyone makes mistakes, and you don't want to make another enemy, do you?"

Bai Suihe looked at Gu Antong. Although she had avoided that disaster, it didn't mean that the incident hadn't happened.

Gu Kaiyuan has truly been reborn and has suffered all sorts of hardships, so she feels she should avenge the original owner of this body.

"Enemies?" Bai Suihe smiled contemptuously. "I think they are my enemies. If it weren't for my family's help, I probably wouldn't have made it to Lingnan."

"Aren't we all doing well now? Why do you insist on dragging us into that abyss of your Gu family?"

"What do you mean by 'abyss'?" Gu Antong felt uneasy when she heard these two words. Bai Suihe was really a dog who couldn't say anything nice. It was a bright future ahead of her.

"Third Aunt, aren't you afraid that we might be able to return to the capital?"

"If my father were to be reinstated, wouldn't you think of him looking out for you, and your Bai family? You're just merchants; don't you even consider their situation?"

Gu Antong was clearly still unable to hold back, and she blurted out threatening words without hesitation.

This might also be related to her not taking Bai Suihe seriously, thinking that she was just a mere merchant's daughter and what could she possibly do?

Liu Yun tried to stop him but it was too late. They had been talking fine at home, so why was he so irritable now?

It seems that An Tong is usually quite nice, but as soon as she gets involved with Lao San and his wife, all sorts of things go wrong.

He knew that some people were mutually reinforcing and mutually antagonistic; could it be the same between them?

Bai Suihe: "That's your business. Do you think you can bring us back with you if you have the chance to return to Beijing?"

"Of course, don't even think about it," Liu Yun and her daughter thought to themselves at the same time.

Gu Antong: "It's not impossible, it just depends on what you, Third Aunt, decide."

"Oh, tell me your conditions?" Bai Suihe thought it was nice to tease them a little, since with Granny Pang and the others around, this mother and daughter couldn't cause any trouble.

"Then you should go and beg your grandfather for forgiveness, and bring our whole family to live with us. We'll continue as we did in the capital, each of us fulfilling our duties. But your Bai family will have to help us out more." They were about to go back, but their home had already been ransacked. It would be difficult to return to their former good life.

My grandfather certainly wouldn't dare to openly use the money from his side now, but the Bai family is a good excuse.

"Gu Antong, it's already dawn, and you're still not awake. Why should I, who am living a perfectly good life, have to go and fawn over your stinking feet?" Bai Suihe didn't care about being rude at the moment. In order not to affect her physical and mental health, she had to get this off her chest. "Don't you all know what kind of life I've been living in the Gu family?"

How dare you come here and spout such nonsense? Do you think we'll be any better off than here when we go back?

You should think this through carefully. You've come all this way, and if you go back, there won't be as many people protecting you. The journey will be much more arduous.

Bai Suihe looked at the mother and daughter with disdain, "With so many assassination attempts before, it's clear that someone doesn't want you to return to the capital. You should think about how to protect yourselves in the future."

Liu Yun and Gu Antong's expressions changed. They were so happy to be able to go back that they forgot the hardships they had endured along the way.

Will those bandits who robbed and killed those travelers be so lucky on their way back?

It wasn't exactly lucky; my grandfather's face was injured and disfigured, and my grandmother lost her life.

Her father had almost damaged his foundation, and there were also these minor injuries and illnesses on their bodies... Gu Antong's hand trembled slightly, and she became even more determined to bring Bai Suihe back home.

The Bai family is not short of money; they could easily hire several escort agencies to protect them along the way.

When Bai Suihe came here before, she was always closely protected by those two security escort agencies.

And then there's Uncle Three, who clearly possesses such high martial arts skills, yet he keeps them hidden and is unwilling to protect his family, but instead protects this woman.

"Third sister-in-law, we're all family, why do you have to say such harsh things?"

Now that we have the chance, we can go back. Don't you want to go back and see your family?

Liu Yun remained relatively calm and quickly found another breakthrough.

“I know that some of our previous actions hurt you, but that’s all in the past. You’ve ignored us for so long, so this is a relief.”

We're all family. Once my husband and father regain power, they certainly won't mistreat your Bai family.

"If you're going to quarrel with your family over such a small matter, how will the Bai family get along with our Gu family in the future?"

This is already a threat. If Bai Suihe doesn't do as she wishes, the first family they'll cause trouble for when they return to the capital will be the Bai family.

Bai Suihe chuckled lightly, "Sister-in-law, you don't think that the Bai family only has the Gu family as a backer, do you?"

"In our Bai family, women for generations have all married into other families through arranged marriages; the Gu family is relatively insignificant among them."

Liu Yun's expression kept changing as she suddenly recalled a memory she had forgotten in a corner.

When Bai Suihe first joined the family, she also compiled a list of gifts. Many families had no prior dealings with the Gu family, but they still sent gifts.

At the time, she and her mother-in-law found it a bit strange, but then they thought about her father-in-law's status and assumed that these people wanted to invest or buy things in advance, so they didn't take it seriously.

As for social interactions, those are managed by each department.

It seems that Bai Suihe's family is especially busy during the holidays, and they are the ones who come and go most often in and out of the mansion.

Bai Suihe chuckled and turned to go home. Trying to threaten her? She was far too naive.

Unexpectedly, Gu Antong rushed forward again to block the way, but Granny Pang was already a step ahead of her, standing in front of Gu Antong with her hands already inside her sleeves.

Bai Suihe watched coldly, thankfully Gu Antong hadn't hurt her feelings, otherwise she would have suffered much earlier than her.

I'm just a little curious, what does Granny Pang hide in her sleeves?
"Third Aunt, what if we go back to the capital and let you take charge of the household?"

Liu Yun looked at her daughter in shock; this was not what they had planned beforehand.

"The head of the family?" Bai Suihe looked at Gu Antong as if she were an idiot. "What's left of the Gu family now?"
"Leave this to your mother; she's quite adept at it."

“Our Gu family will be different from now on.” Gu Antong’s recent hardships have made her realize even more that life without money is a real disaster.

If Bai Suihe were to take charge of the household, she believed that once they returned to the capital, the Gu family's quality of life would only improve further.
