Chapter 79 079. Men in Black

The Gu family didn't know what he was doing, but they still put the bowl on the ground as he said.

Gu Kaiyuan walked over, holding the pot directly, and started pouring bowls to Gu Kaiping one by one.

His hands were very steady and not a drop of porridge fell out.

But the Gu family soon discovered something was wrong. The porridge they poured was actually rice soup, and the bottom was clear.

All the remaining rice grains were at the bottom of the pot, but their bowls were no longer able to hold them.

Only then did Gu Kaiyuan fill two bowls of porridge for Xu Huizhen and Gu Baijiang.

……

"Okay, now that we've divided it, let's eat quickly," Xu Huizhen picked up her bowl immediately. For the first time, she felt that Gu Kaiyuan was capable.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Aren't you hungry?" Gu Kaiyuan looked bewildered. "But are you dissatisfied with my assignment?"

The first and second wives felt as if they were holding their breath in their chests, and they had to grit their teeth and shake their heads.

What could they say? Could it be that parents shouldn't eat so well?
It’s just two bowls of rice porridge. If they really care about it, will the two elders still be partial to them in the future?
Gu Baijiang thought about it and decided to pick up the porridge. It wasn't that he was selfish and didn't care about his descendants. He had to stay in good health so that the family could last longer.

Gu Kaiyuan clapped his hands and left. This trip was really worth it. The oilcloth and two cakes were not given in vain.

"Why are you so happy?" Bai Suihe and the others had also packed up and took a piece of oilcloth to build a simple shelter at the foot of the mountain.

Gu Kaiyuan shared his happiness and made Bai Suihe laugh at the same time, "This can be considered an unexpected bonus. I guess they must hate you to death by now."

"Hate them, even if I don't do anything, they won't like it." Gu Kaiyuan had already let it go. "Tonight, let the two girls take you to the ox cart to rest. I'll squeeze in with them over there."

"Son-in-law, you and the young lady can rest in the car, we can stay here." Zhuang Datou quickly refused, as this would allow his son-in-law to squeeze in with them.

"Okay, it's settled. The road ahead is still long, and they are women, delicate and weak, and cannot catch a cold." Gu Kaiyuan made the decision directly, and at the same time, he led them to push the ox cart to the corner, and then tied the ox to the front, just enough to block the sight and wind.

Most importantly, the place he chose was a blind spot and some distance away from the Gu family, so he should not be implicated by them.

As the night deepened, everyone except the night watchman fell asleep.

The Gu family did the same. They covered the car with oilcloth. Some people slept under the car, and some slept on top of it. They could fit everyone in.

This family was so generous that they didn't even leave anyone to keep watch.

The night watchman yawned and his eyelids felt even heavier as he listened to the snoring.

They didn't notice that several dark shadows were approaching quietly, and even carefully bypassed them, searching each house one by one.

Suddenly, a man in black made a gesture and everyone gathered around.

"Is this the Gu family member?"

"It's this family. I've seen them before."

"Take everyone away, especially Master Gu. But be careful not to hurt him."

"Yes."

Just as they were about to take action, a scream suddenly rang out, "There's a thief!" The Chen family members lying around jumped up, "Dad, where is the thief?"

"Father, where is the thief?"

Everyone woke up immediately, and with the help of the firelight, they saw the circle of men in black surrounding the Gu family.

Having all experienced many storms, many people immediately knew who this was aimed at.

Gu Baijiang and the others also woke up at this moment. The whole family huddled together, and everyone wanted to squeeze into the middle.

"Who are you? Get out of here quickly." The escort who heard the noise also ran over. The voice arrived before the person arrived.

The man in black couldn't possibly fight these people. He rushed forward, grabbed the Gu family and tried to run away. But how could the Gu family surrender? They all struggled.

"Master Gu, I advise you to be sensible and not force us to take action. Don't blame us if blood is shed." The leading man in black walked up to Gu Baijiang and whispered in his ear.

"You are simply lawless. I have never made an enemy alone. Why are you looking for trouble with me?" Gu Baijiang pretended to be calm, but his mind was working rapidly. Who is behind this?

"As long as you tell me where the thing in your hand is, we will let you go."

The Third Prince was truly unreliable. How could he possibly let such a secret out? Would he ever have a peaceful life in the future?

"I don't understand what you are talking about," Gu Baijiang pretended to be stupid without thinking. If he said it, he would die, but if he didn't say it, he might still have a chance of survival.

"Don't play dumb with us here. Be straightforward and tell us where you are. We can still spare your family's life."

"But I really don't understand what you are talking about. There must be a misunderstanding..."

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" All the escorts drew their swords, and Liu Pingkang pointed at the men in black and shouted angrily.

At the same time, his eyes swept over the Gu family fiercely. Those who surrounded the Gu family, could they be their enemies?

"Don't waste time talking to them, just take Gu Baijiang away." Now that they were discovered, the man in black had no choice but to start taking action.

Since Gu Baijiang refused to cooperate, he took him under control and grabbed Gu Baijiang's arm and pulled him out.

Gu Baijiang held on to the ox cart tightly, knowing that if he let go, his fate would surely be left to others.

But in this life, there was no Gu Kaiyuan who risked his life for him and tried his best to drive these people away. He could only look to his two sons for help.

Gu Kaiping and Gu Kaichen didn't dare to move, and even their legs were shaking.

"Take the two younger ones with you," the black-clad leader pointed directly at Gu Anliang and Gu Anwei. He had to have some cards in his hand to negotiate with Gu Baijiang.

Gu Anliang and the others screamed and struggled hard, but there was no way they could escape from these well-trained men in black.

"Dad, Mom, save me." Gu Anliang's voice woke Liu Yun up. At this moment, she didn't care about anything else and rushed over to protect Gu Anliang, but was kicked off the ground by the man in black and fell heavily on the ox cart.

"Mom," Gu Antong saw that things were not going well, so she rushed over, hid behind Liu Yun, and helped her up. To outsiders, it seemed that Liu Yun was protecting someone behind her.

"Everyone, our Gu family has never been an enemy. Why are you trying to make things difficult for us?" Seeing his father and son about to be taken away, Gu Kaiping could only muster up the courage to bow and say to the men in black, "If we have offended you in any way, we apologize here and hope you will forgive us."

"Don't listen to their nonsense, take your people and leave quickly." The man in black said impatiently to the escorts who surrounded him, "Get out of the way if you know what's good for you. We don't want your lives."
