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

Chapter 361, Section 361: Moving
Bai Suihe felt sorry for Xu Yulan, but she didn't want to help. Not joining in the fun was already the greatest act of kindness she could show.

"However, if Second Master Gu continues to gamble like this, it might not be good for our master either." Granny Pang looked at Gu Xingyang with a loving expression. The young lady was really curious; her little head had been busy ever since she came out.

"I think the master could send someone to warn him, so that he doesn't squander the family fortune and come knocking on the door again."

Bai Suihe didn't want to get involved, "The two families have no relationship anymore..."

"That's true, but people sympathize with the weak. If he can't make ends meet and comes knocking on the door with his whole family, it won't be good for your reputation."

People have to consider human relationships when they live in this world. Although everyone hates gamblers, if a family really can't make ends meet, and Gu Kaiyuan, his blood brother, ignores it, he will be criticized.

Bai Suihe now wants to move away from here, since she has finished her postpartum confinement.

Upon returning home, Gu Kaiyuan immediately began having people pack their bags.

"Where are we going?" Bai Suihe asked curiously.

"The weather hasn't been very good these past few days, but we can go to the county town to stay first. I've already had a house there prepared. Once the weather clears up, I'll take you south, where the climate will be much better."

Bai Suihe held Gu Xingyang, hesitating slightly, "But the child is still young."

The road ahead is not so smooth now. Gu Xingyang's most important thing right now is sleep. She needs to sleep more to grow taller. How can a child endure such a bumpy journey?

"Let's get to the county town first," Gu Kaiyuan said, looking at the mud outside. Although they had tried their best to clean up, it was still a rural area, and with all the rain, it didn't look very clean.

He didn't care, but he didn't want to wrong his wife and daughter.

Besides, he didn't want to let the Gu family's affairs affect everyone's mood anymore. Since he was leaving anyway, he might as well leave sooner rather than later.

Bai Suihe looked at the small courtyard with some reluctance. This was her first home in the true sense. "It's a pity I didn't live in this house for long."

"What's the big deal? We can come back to stay here again later," Gu Kaiyuan said. He didn't think he would completely sever ties with this place. Besides, this place also held an important industry for them in the future: the saltpeter in the back mountain. Once he had enough strength, he would definitely mine it.

At this moment, Chunxiang and Dongmei rushed in, saying, "Miss, you need to leave."

"From now on, we'll leave things here to you." Bai Suihe and Gu Kaiyuan had already decided to entrust everything here to Dongmei and the others, and they felt at ease with them looking after things.

"Why don't we stay with Miss?" Dongmei said reluctantly. "Let's do what we used to do."

Bai Suihe walked over, took their hands, and looked at their bellies. "You two silly girls, you're going to be mothers now, it's time to settle down."

Besides, I'm not going away for good. I'm just going out to clear my head. I'll probably be back in a few days. We're at ease knowing you're taking care of things at home."

Dongmei nodded dejectedly, knowing that what her mistress meant was that there was no way to change it. "Then you mustn't forget us, Miss. You must come back."

Given the abilities of the young lady and her husband, they will only go to bigger places, and they will probably have very few opportunities to come back in the future.

“Of course, this can be considered our roots,” Bai Suihe said with a smile. “Besides, we’re just going to stay in the county town for now, it’s not that far away, and we might have to come back in a few days.”

The two girls thought about it and realized it was true, so they stopped worrying about being left behind and quickly helped pack their bags.

Gu Kaiyuan also went out to give instructions on other matters. This time, they only took Granny Pang, Lin Hua, Lin Wei, and the two newly recruited head maids, Wu Xiaocui and Song Pandi, with them.

However, they have now changed their names. Bai Suihe, who is terrible at naming things, entrusted the task to Granny Pang. Granny Pang, knowing that the madam would be studying medicine in the future, gave them names based on Chinese medicine. Wu Xiaocui was renamed Wu Zisu, and Song Pandi was renamed Song Fuling. The two of them now take the place of Chunmei and the others.

As for the people that Madam Bai sent last time, Gu Kaiyuan took Li Dazhuang's family with him, while the rest stayed here. They would plant fruit trees and tea on the land here in the spring, as well as on the nearby mountains.

After a busy night, the group headed to the county town early the next morning after Bai Suihe woke up and ate something simple.

Because they traveled back and forth frequently, the villagers of Tiancun didn't pay much attention, assuming that the family had just gone to the county town to buy things. They were envious for a moment, then went back to their work.

After the New Year, spring has arrived, and there's a lot of work to be done in the fields. If they don't work hard, they won't be able to make a living.

The courtyard he bought in the county town was not far from the county government office, but since it was purchased from someone else, Gu Kaiyuan still had it renovated inside and out, especially the main courtyard, where all the furniture was replaced with new ones.

"It's really nice," Bai Suihe said. It was her first time visiting this courtyard, and she felt that it was somewhat similar to the small courtyard in Shangjing. Some of the items inside were also things she used often. Bai Suihe couldn't help but praise, "You've put a lot of thought into it."

"I'm glad you like it, Madam." Gu Kaiyuan had been paying attention to Bai Suihe's expression. Seeing his happy expression, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the previous arrangements were all correct.

"Father, why don't you ask me if I like it?" Gu Xingyang had already woken up and was looking around at their new place of residence.

"Does the baby like it?"

"Hmph, asking now is too late." Gu Xingyang was also a little arrogant.

Gu Kaiyuan gently touched her little cheek. "Look at my little darling, her mouth is almost puffed out like a frog's, she's so cute."

Gu Xingyang turned her head to the side, "Bad daddy, didn't you even prepare a courtyard for me?"

Gu Kaiyuan was stunned. "Baby, are you going to sleep alone at such a young age?"

Gu Xingyang, "..."

Bai Suihe chuckled, "Alright, you two stop fooling around here, let's hurry up and take a look at our new home."

Gu Kaiyuan hurriedly took the baby and began to lead the way, "Then let me introduce you to Madam... and our young lady..."

At the county government office not far away, Wu Xingshun sighed and lamented, "Are you just going to let this matter go like this?"

After waiting for a while and no one paid any attention to him, he said in a self-pitying tone, "My brother and I have suffered for so long, almost dying in Lingnan, and we still haven't been given an explanation."

Xu Zitian said, "If you're so free, hurry up and take a look at those files. That guy surnamed Ming left behind so many messes, why don't you hurry up and find a way to solve them?"

Wu Xingshun sighed, "What kind of fate do we have?"

"We've suffered an undeserved disaster, and now we have to clean up their mess..."

A file was thrown at him, and he quickly caught it. "You're trying to murder me..."
