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

Chapter 616. Going Mad
Bai Suihe waited until the carriage was far away, then turned and left without even glancing at them.

Liu Yun and Xu Yulan hurriedly followed, but before they could catch up, they were stopped by several guards.

"Third sister-in-law, we've come to see you about something. It's not a good idea for you to keep avoiding us like this. After all, we all share the surname Gu. Gu Kaiyuan can't just ignore family ties."

This is the last time we've come to beg you. If you help us, we'll never bother you again.

Liu Yun shouted loudly from behind, saying that once they got involved, they wouldn't be able to shake it off.

Bai Suihe didn't even stop walking; she quickly disappeared from their sight.

"Sister-in-law, your idea won't work either," they said. The person had already gone far away, and the guards were holding swords to protect them, so of course they didn't dare to test the sharpness of the swords.

"How was I supposed to know she'd be so stubborn? And you're blaming me? Why didn't you help me just now?"

"How can I help? The person is no longer here. What's the use of saying all this?"
"But this is the sea, and it looks quite nice." Xu Yulan's eyes were already captivated by the sea. She had come in a hurry, and then ran into Bai Suihe, so she hadn't really paid attention.

Now, with the sea breeze blowing and looking at the magnificent ocean, I feel that this trip was worthwhile.

"You still have the mind to care about these things? We've come all this way, we can't go back empty-handed." Liu Yun mustered her courage and took a few steps forward, but was quickly forced back by the sword.

Xu Yulan said, “Sister-in-law, we’ve come all this way and seen the person, but they’re ignoring us. Why don’t we go back and ask Dad for an explanation, or have him come in person?”

"Do you think it's useful?" Liu Yun sat down on a rock by the roadside. Looking at the situation, it was a small fishing village, but for some reason, there were no outsiders in the entire village. Bai Suihe and his men had sent people to guard the place.

"Don't you think this place is strange? What did Bai Suihe and the others do to the villagers here?"
"With such a commotion, no villagers came out to see what was happening. Could it be that they've seized the land?"

Xu Yulan said, "That shouldn't be the case. They don't have that kind of guts."

But upon closer inspection, that doesn't make sense either. If people are just coming to this village to play, what about the other people in the village? It's impossible for such a large village to be left uninhabited, right?

“I think this is very abnormal. Come on, let’s go back and tell Dad. We’ll probably have to report this to the authorities.” Liu Yun said, pulling Xu Yulan away. She deliberately raised her voice, thinking that with this leverage, Bai Suihe would no longer be able to ignore it.

Who knew that the guards stood there like wooden stakes, as if they hadn't heard her words, and sometimes their glances were full of mockery.

Damn it, there must be some secret here. If she reports it to the authorities, she might even get a large reward.

"How is this not normal?"

"Didn't you see here? There are no other villagers besides them. Where did the other villagers go?"

I heard that Japanese pirates looted the village a while ago. Are they involved with them, or even colluding with them?

After pulling the person away, Liu Yun stopped and explained to her in a low voice.

"That can't be. Bai Suihe is not short of money. She shouldn't do such a thing." Xu Yulan didn't believe it. Everyone had seen how wealthy the Bai family was. How could they do something so heinous?

"How could you be so stupid?" Liu Yun scolded him with a hint of exasperation, not even looking at his distorted face. "Whether she has it or not, we can make her have it."

"But what good will doing this do us?" Xu Yulan didn't understand. If Bai Suihe were to fall on hard times, they would at most just watch the show. "Why should we live such a miserable life?" Liu Yun had gone completely mad. She had no hope left with her husband, who had been fired and was now drinking herself into oblivion at home all day.

His daughter, whom he had raised with his own hands, was killed in the backyard of the Prince Ning's mansion, and he had no one to reason with.

Even his own son couldn't compare to his cousin, and now the old man's attention was mostly focused on Gu Anwei.

She's in charge of the household now, but what's the point of being in charge? She has to be meticulous about every penny of the household expenses, and she has to take charge of all the household chores. She's busy all day long, like a spinning top. Her delicate hands, which used to be able to embroider, can't even hold a handkerchief anymore. The calluses on her hands could scratch the handkerchief at any time.

“If Bai Suihe is unlucky, then she can’t take our luck away from us. Why should the Gu family be the only ones living comfortably? This shouldn’t be the case. We are the ones who should be living that kind of life…”

Xu Yulan thought Liu Yun had gone mad; how could she be so extreme?

Bai Suihe relies on the Bai family, so there's no way she'll have a bad life.

Only Liu Yun knew why she said that. These days she had been having the same dream, a dream that started with the changes in the Gu family.

But the events in their dream were completely different from what they were experiencing now. Bai Suihe and her good-for-nothing should have died on the road to exile long ago.

The Gu family received money from the Bai family along the way, so they didn't suffer much hardship.

Finally, the whole family returned to the capital. Their daughter entered the Third Prince's residence and soon gave birth to the Third Prince's eldest son. The father-in-law and husband both gained a step closer in the court...

All this beauty was so overwhelming that when she woke up, she couldn't tell which part of it was a dream.

But the oppressive life she led every day forced her to return to reality.

If it were just a dream for one night, he would at most think it was just a fantasy. But this kind of dream appeared every night when she fell asleep, and she had a feeling that their lives had been stolen.

The thief was Bai Suihe and her daughter. If they had died on the way to exile, everything would have been just like what she saw in her dream. Therefore, Bai Suihe was the culprit.

She now only had one feeling: as long as Bai Suihe and that good-for-nothing died, the Gu family would be alright.

"Yes, as long as they suffer, our Gu family will be fine."

Xu Yulan quickly took a step back and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
Do you still recognize me?

"I'm going to report this to the authorities. Bai Suihe is a monster. They're doing all sorts of heinous things in this little fishing village..."

"It's over," Xu Yulan was so anxious she was jumping up and down. If another one went crazy, the Gu family would be completely finished.

She mustered her courage and reached out to tug at Liu Yun, "Sister-in-law, let's go back and discuss this. Even though there aren't many people here, if others see us, what will become of the Gu family's reputation?"

If a crazy woman appears in the house, who would dare to associate with them in the future?

The tugging brought Liu Yun back to her senses, and she looked at Xu Yulan blankly, "Do you think what I said makes sense?"

Xu Yulan didn't dare to argue with him at this moment, and quickly nodded perfunctorily, "Sister-in-law, what you said makes sense..."
