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

Gu Baijiang was immediately brought back to his senses by the coldness on his hands. "I also want to know what's going on?"

What exactly happened last night?

Xu Shuanghong shook her head, "I don't know either. I just felt like I slept really well last night, but when I woke up this morning, my room was like this too."

Her expression changed immediately, and she rushed to the room next to hers. The door was wide open, which frightened her so much that her face turned pale, and she rushed straight in.

Seeing her two daughters lying motionless on the bed, Xu Shuanghong clutched her chest but still mustered the courage to walk forward.

Seeing that her two daughters were still covered with blankets, she rushed over and lifted them, only to find that they were fully clothed, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that they hadn't woken up, he quickly touched them and found that they were warm and breathing, which put his mind at ease.

Despite the commotion, they were still asleep. She nudged them, calling, "Meibao, Meilin..."

Meilin slowly opened her eyes from her sleep and saw Xu Shuanghong magnified in front of her. She couldn't help but frown. "Mother, how did you get into our room?"

If I remember correctly, she had bolted the door when she went to sleep. Thinking of this, I was startled awake.

Fan Meibao woke up at this time, grumbling unhappily, "They have nothing to do all day long, and won't even let people sleep a little longer."

"Something's happened," Xu Shuanghong said quickly when she saw the two of them wake up and their last breath had gone out. "Look around the room and see if you have any of your things."

After Xu Shuanghong finished speaking, she remembered the things she had hidden and hurriedly turned back to her room.

But as soon as he lay down under the bed, he found the floor underneath had been turned upside down. Ignoring the mud all over the place, he frantically searched with his hands, muttering, "It's all over, everything's ruined..."

Gu Kaiping and the others woke up at this time, and looking at the state of the house inside and outside, they felt a chill to the bone.

I don't know whether I should be glad or not, because these people didn't mean to hurt them yesterday, otherwise they wouldn't be able to see the sun today.

Yes, the sun came out, but it couldn't warm their hearts even a little.

Gu Baijiang looked inside and out, and this was simply adding insult to injury for them.

The home I finally managed to build looks like a complete disaster now.

And so, he didn't have the courage to rebuild it, nor the courage to continue living there.

"Father, what should we do?" Gu Kaichen trembled all over. "Is it the Third Prince?"

After all, they had all suspected that the Gu family was hiding a fortune, and wondered if it was for that purpose.

Liu Yun's expression was strange, and she became more and more certain that her dream was real. She didn't know why her father-in-law hadn't taken out that sum of money, but he must have had it, otherwise no one would have come to dig so deep.

My father-in-law brought my second son here to buy and build a house. Who knows if he did it on purpose or if he hid something in there?

What she's more concerned about now is whether the silver has been taken away.

"How would I know?" Gu Baijiang also had such doubts, but upon careful consideration, he realized that the Third Prince wouldn't be so straightforward. Perhaps, just as he had guessed before, this house was hiding a secret.

"Anyway, things are getting worse for our family now. We can't live in this house anymore, so we need to find a place to move as soon as possible."

If we didn't take their lives last night, who knows what will happen next time?

This time, no one objected to his decision; after all, no one dared to stay any longer. "Go back and check carefully to see if any of your belongings are missing..."

"Damn it, this is going to kill us..." Xu Shuanghong roared, and everyone looked towards her room, realizing that there had been a loss.

At this moment, Gu Baijiang couldn't care less about anything else. He turned around and ran to his room. He groped around on the bed for a while, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

He always felt that the most dangerous place was the safest, so he simply pasted the banknotes on the bed board.

Before he could put the banknotes away, his two sons drove in with their wives.

Now everyone's eyes are shining as they stare at the silver notes in his hand.

"Stop staring at it. This is our last remaining asset. The most important thing right now is to find a place to settle down."

"Dad, houses in the city are hard to buy." Gu Kaichen had been following along for a few days, so he knew this much.

"How could I not know? Let's find a village to settle down in later."

The county town is too big a target. Let's find a remote village and lie low for a while first.

Now no one objected, and nobody knew whether the people who came last night would still be watching them.

"Should we report this to the authorities?" Xu Yulan was still reluctant; she was probably the only one here who didn't want to go back to the countryside.

After all this, is it really true that she was blessed but didn't live to enjoy it?
"Report to the authorities?" Gu Baijiang paused for a moment, then said, "Do you know who did it?"

"Do they think our family lives too long?"

Only then did everyone realize that if someone could quietly ransack their land, taking their lives would be a piece of cake.

No one dared to mention it again. When they went to the kitchen, they found that the food was still there, which showed that the people had come to search for treasure.

No one paid any attention to Xu Shuanghong and her two daughters. After taking a quick bite, the Gu father and son hurriedly left. They needed to find a new place to stay today; they absolutely dared not stay at this house any longer.

Liu Yun and Xu Yulan also used the excuse of buying groceries to quietly leave home. Standing in the bustling market, their anxiety gradually subsided.

"Sister-in-law, are we really going to buy groceries and take them back?"

Liu Yun found a corner to sit down. "Go back? Go back for what?"
"Stay here for now. By the way, sister-in-law, did you lose anything?"

Xu Yulan shook her head and said with some relief, "You know I'm penniless. Even rats would shake their heads and leave if they entered my room. It's fortunate that's the case, otherwise I would be sitting at home crying like that Xu woman today."

They had known all along that Xu Shuanghong had a trick up her sleeve, but now it seems she's been wiped out in one fell swoop.

They really deserve it. Gu Kaichen was almost driven to death before, and Xu Shuanghong had money but refused to help. Now, everyone is just as poor.

"Sister-in-law, what about you?"

Liu Yun still has some savings. Gu Antong gave her some ornaments before, which she secretly sold. She is probably the richest person in the whole family, except for Gu Baijiang.

She said calmly, "I'm the same way. My father-in-law manages all the money in the house. He knows exactly how much to buy groceries every day. I do have some spare change left from buying groceries a few days ago, but it's not much. It's probably only enough for our family's meals for two days."

"How are we supposed to live like this?" Xu Yulan didn't believe it, but she couldn't afford to break off relations now. "Everyone has their struggles." (End of Chapter)
