Chapter 243 The Last Wish of the Ancient Father and Daughter Whose Luck Was Taken Away 10

Gu Laoliu moved his fingers slightly, and a ray of light invisible to the naked eye penetrated into Gu Yuanshan's brow, and then he was seen scratching his head in some confusion.

What did he say he wanted to ask me to do? I seem to have forgotten. Maybe I have been under too much pressure from schoolwork recently and I tend to forget things easily.

Heavy rain lasted for three days and three nights, and the village was completely flooded, with many houses submerged in water.

The rain didn't stop, it just turned from heavy rain to moderate rain.

Rainy days are somewhat boring. Perhaps only the father and daughter feel bored. Everyone else is worried about how long the rain will last and what they will do if a disaster occurs.

Everyone was frowning, except Chang'an and her father, who were heartless and just sat at home shaking their feet every day.

The heavy rain did not stop until half a month later, but the weather was still gloomy because it was already winter and it was very cold and damp. Many villagers did not have cotton clothes at home, so the families huddled together around the fire to keep warm.

It has rained in previous years, but never as cold as this year. This winter feels particularly unbearable.

The only cotton-padded jacket in the Gu family is worn by Gu Yuanshan. He has to study in the academy and cannot live without it. Others have to rely on shivering to survive the winter.

The original owner didn't have to shiver, as he was held in his father's arms the entire winter, keeping each other warm.

The choice they faced was that if they bought the cotton-padded clothes, they would have no money to pay the rent to Gu Yuanshan, and if they paid the rent, they would have no money to buy the cotton-padded clothes.

Chang'an looked at the Gu family members who were huddled together by the fire. Gu Yuanshan gave his cotton coat to his wife, and his own face was turning purple from the cold.

They didn't have to suffer from the cold this year because they forgot to buy cotton clothes.

Gu Laoliu took out some old cotton-padded jackets from the space. The styles did not belong to this era, but it would not be noticeable if he put an old piece of clothing on top of the cotton-padded jackets.

When Mother Gu took the cotton coats, she was a little surprised. These coats were 70% new and very thick, completely different from those sold in clothing shops. The ones in the shops were only half as thick and one piece cost more than ten taels of silver.

"Where did it come from?" Gu's mother guessed that it was old clothes bought from a wealthy family.

"I bought these few pieces, just enough for you to wear." He originally had a lot of them, but he forgot where he donated them all, without even leaving a grain of food.

Seeing that the father and daughter were still wearing summer clothes, Mother Gu hurriedly wrapped Changan in a cotton coat and said, "I'm not cold, you can wear your own clothes."

"Grandma, I'm not cold. You wear the cotton coat. Remember not to wear it outside. Put on an outer coat on the outside," Chang'an returned the cotton coat to Gu's mother. The cotton coat was calf-length, and there was still a part of the calf that was not covered.

Changan put his little hand on Gu's mother's face, letting her feel that she was really not cold. The temperature changes of the four seasons had no effect on her and her father.

"Mom, go and change your cotton clothes quickly," Gu Laoliu didn't give his mother a chance to doubt. He picked up Chang'an and walked out of the flower hall and returned to their own room.

Gu Yuanshan was like a curious baby. He thought his little brother was hiding a big secret and would not be cold in winter. He had heard stories from storytellers and his little brother was a bit like the immortal cultivators in the stories.

He happily ran to find Gu Laoliu. In order to save money to buy cotton clothes, he also wanted to practice Taoism.

"Brother, tell me, are you and An An cultivating immortals? What do you think of my aptitude? Take me with you."

Gu Laoliu and Changan both widened their eyes. How did he see that? Could this really be an extraordinary person chosen by God?

Gu Yuanshan pulled at his short cotton coat and said embarrassedly, "Cotton coats are quite expensive. We can't afford them. It's better to cultivate immortality."

Father and daughter: ………They first met someone who wanted to cultivate immortality in order to save money.

"You are not qualified, so just wear your cotton-padded clothes honestly," Gu Laoliu said with a sullen face, extinguishing the light of hope in his eyes.

"Oh," the bright eyes dimmed instantly, like a dog that didn't get a bone.

The matter of cultivating immortals just ended like that.

After the flood receded, those who moved to higher places did not move back to their original houses. Their old houses were destroyed by the flood, so they decided to settle down in their current location.

The weather is fine and the villagers are busy again, everyone is expanding their houses.

Those who lived in thatched huts were building mud-walled houses, and those who lived in stone houses continued to expand them with stones.

Gu Yuanshan returned to the academy, and Gu Laoliu and Chang'an also went to the town. They went to Yahang to buy a place for Gu Yuanshan as a schoolboy.

There were people who sold themselves into slavery in the brothel, and there were also servants who were sold by their masters because they made mistakes. Gu Laoliu chose one with a background in martial arts from among a dozen teenagers.

"What's your name? Tell me why you sold yourself into slavery?" Gu Laoliu already knew the reason, he just wanted to see if he would lie.

"My name is Yun Yue. I am hiding from my enemies. If you buy me, please rest assured that I will not bring any trouble to you."

Yun Yue repeatedly called himself a slave. Chang'an checked his information and exclaimed, wow, he is the half-brother of the girl who traveled through time and space in this dimension, 6!

The third son of a general's mansion was forced to become homeless due to a time-traveling woman. His biological mother was also falsely accused by the time-traveling woman of having an adultery with a servant, and was beaten to death with sticks and thrown into a mass grave.

Yun Yue wanted to avenge his aunt, but was falsely accused of murdering his own father by a time traveler. He finally escaped from the general's mansion, but was chased by the time traveler's suitors along the way.

Did this Third Master Yun violate the Heavenly Law? There is absolutely no way to find the conflict of interest between him and the time-traveling girl?

The time-traveling girl was originally their problem. Gu Laoliu thought that he could use this to find a powerful teammate for Gu Yuanshan, a future general who would help protect the country and give Gu Yuanshan a bright future in his career.

“It’s all small stuff. You stay loyal to my brother, and I’ll help you get revenge. What do you think of this deal?

There is no need for your indenture. You stay with my brother until he finishes the imperial examination, and then you can pursue your own future.

If you enter the government in the future, you must follow my brother as your leader. Of course, I am not asking you to rebel, but I want you to protect him in the court."

Gu Laoliu raised the corners of his lips slightly. Chang'an guessed that he was trying to put on the devilish smile of a mentally retarded overbearing CEO, but it seemed that he was not successful, probably because he was not mentally retarded enough.

Yun Yue knelt down and kowtowed three times to Gu Laoliu. "Yun Yue will definitely live up to your expectations, young master."

He did not look down on Gu Laoliu because of his shabby clothes. How could a man who could dress his daughter up like a precious treasure be simple? Such people are often very secretive. In many cases, Chang'an was Gu Laoliu's front sign.

Gu Laoliu took him to the clothing shop to buy some new clothes and some other accessories, and then sent him to the academy to be with Gu Yuanshan.

It was a book boy I bought for him, so there was no need to bring him back to the village.

Students can have servants in the academy. The sons of noble families or wealthy families will have more than one servant.

Gu Yuanshan discovered that he hadn't seen his younger brother for a few days, and his status had been upgraded, and he was also assigned a servant. He was a little uncomfortable with it.
