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

Chapter 93 093. Filial Piety
Gu Baijiang has really felt the fickleness of human nature these days. He is angry, but he can only hold it in.

He secretly decided in his heart that when he returned to Shangjing, he would definitely deal with these people and make them look down on others.

He turned around and wanted to ask Gu Kaiyuan to pay the money, but found that there was no one behind him.

Gu Kaiyuan had his back to him, and no one knew what he was saying to the Gu brothers. At this time, he was afraid of angering Guo Baozhu again, so he could only take out the silver from his pocket.

Guo Baozhu waited until he paid the money and got the house card, but he didn't see any expression from him. His face became even darker. He snorted coldly, turned around and left.

There was only one room available, and except for Xu Huizhen who shamelessly followed Gu Baijiang into the room, the other members of the Gu family returned to the big bunk bed.

Gu Antong was a little reluctant, "Mom, how about we go and ask for a room too?"

"Forget it, let's just make do with it." Liu Yun refused cruelly, touching the small amount of silver. "We don't have much money, and we still need to eat and spend money along the way, so let's be frugal."

"Dad?" Gu Antong turned to Gu Kaiping again, "Why don't you go talk to Grandpa?"

"Your grandfather only wants one room, so he must have his own plans," Gu Kaiping really didn't dare to say this. The future life of their family still depended on his father.

When he was thrown into prison, he was searched just like his father. Where did the silver bills on his father come from?
There must be something he doesn't know about this, and he has been thinking about this problem for the past two days.

If the two charges of embezzling grain and accepting bribes as stated in the imperial edict are really proven, then where did the silver go?

Even if my father has a mistress, all this money must come from somewhere, right?
The most surprising thing is that their house was searched, but the authorities did not interrogate them at all. Don’t they care about the whereabouts of the money?

Is this a false accusation, or does the silver belong to someone else?
Gu Kaiping didn't even dare to think deeply about it. Even though he was just staying in the Hanlin Academy, he was well aware of the affairs in the court.

Whenever he thought about his father having already taken sides, he felt both excited and nervous.

This may just be a tribulation for the Gu family. If they can get through it, they will be the most outstanding one in the entire family. Will their future be bad?
So he calmed down these past two days and concentrated on being a filial son in front of his father.

"But I'm covered in dirt and feel uncomfortable all over." Gu Antong used to take a bath every day in the mansion, but this time she couldn't stand it for so many days.

"Don't mess around." Gu Kaiping had a guess in his mind and naturally had to keep a close eye on his daughter. "Why are you cleaning it up so cleanly now?
Tomorrow, let your hair down a bit and put some ash on your face."

"Wouldn't that be like being a beggar?" Gu Antong felt a little horrified at the thought, "That would be too ugly."

Liu Yun didn't agree with Gu Antong this time. "Your father is right. Now is not the time to be particular. The further we go, the more dangerous our situation will be. I heard that bandits become rampant near the Lingnan border. Being too good-looking is not a good thing."

Liu Yun held her daughter in her arms and whispered in her ear, "Your father must have a reason for saying that. Be good and listen to him."

Gu Antong nodded aggrievedly, "I'll listen to my parents. Then can we have something good to eat?"

Seeing his two children staring at them with grievance, Gu Kaiping turned his gaze to Liu Yun.

Liu Yun sighed and took out a silver coin from her bosom. "Let's go see if there's anything to eat. We'll have a good meal tonight."

"What about grandpa and the others?" Gu Anliang was the eldest grandson in the family and had always been favored by Gu Baijiang and the others, so it was natural that he would be thinking about them at this time. "Your grandpa and the others will eat in their rooms," Liu Yun touched Gu Anliang's head. "We don't have much money at home right now. If we invite everyone, we can only buy a few white flour buns."

Gu Anliang was silent. He had wanted to eat meat when his grandfather and others were drinking chicken soup.

"An Liang, I'll take you to have a look and then you can make the decision." Gu Kaiping took Gu Anliang away directly. His son's filial piety must be known to his old father.

"Mom..." Gu Antong was a little unhappy. Why did her father leave her?
"Your father has his own considerations." Liu Yun has been married into the Gu family for more than ten years and of course knows Gu Kaiping very well. From the change in his attitude in the past few days, she knows that the Gu family still has secrets that she doesn't know.

Husband and wife are one body. Even if Gu Kaiping doesn't think about himself, he should think about his two children.

"Hurry up and make the bed. I've been sitting on the oxcart all day and my body is sore..."

Gu Antong had no choice but to help her mother clean up. She couldn't help but think of the sisters in Shangjing, wondering if they were talking about her behind her back.

……

When Gu Kaiping brought Gu Anliang to the lower-class room, Gu Kaichen was already there with his family. No wonder they hadn't been seen on the big bunk bed before.

There is only one bed in the waiting room. Do they think that this family can sleep on the floor?
"Second brother, what are you doing?" A family of three stood at the door, unable to even squeeze through.

He took a look inside and found that, just as Gu Kaiping had guessed, the conditions of this room were even worse than the one they had chosen before. There was only a bed and a long and narrow aisle. It was estimated that no one could lie down.

"Why are you all here? This bed can only accommodate two people," Xu Huizhen complained that the room was too crowded, and she also knew the purpose of these people coming.

"Can't mom get us a room too? With so many people crammed together, it's impossible to get a good rest."

Gu Kaichen stuck his head in and forced a wronged expression.

"Then I can't help it. The escort is only willing to give this convenience because of the Bai family. Why don't you go find the Bai family?"

Xu Huizhen wanted to push this difficult problem to Bai Suihe, but Gu Kaichen really didn't have the courage.

Bai Suihe never came down from the building since he went upstairs, and the people living next door to them were the escorts, and he was afraid of the whips.

Seeing that Gu Kaichen was silent, Xu Yulan simply pushed Gu Anwei forward and said, "Then Wei'er will stay with you tonight. He can show filial piety to our parents on our behalf."

Gu Kaiping, who had been indifferent, suddenly changed his expression. Could it be that the second brother's family had also noticed something?
He immediately pulled his son to the door and said with a smile, "Mom, we just bought some buns outside. An Liang has been thinking about you, so as soon as he got them, he was eager to bring them to you.

Where's my dad? Why didn't he see it?"

"You guys have squeezed me out here," Gu Baijiang didn't expect that his sons would come over to him just after he went to the toilet.

He saw it clearly from behind just now. The second son's family wanted to take advantage of them, but the eldest son and the eldest grandson came to see the old couple in earnest. The hot meat buns in their hands were placed there.

Xu Yulan and the others also stared at the meat buns and swallowed their saliva, not even looking at his old father.
