Chapter 239 This is a good idea
Old Master Gu nodded. He thought so too. The two of them, grandfather and grandson, had the same idea again.
It's not surprising that he can think of this after having been through many battles, but the little girl is so young, and she can think of this, which shows that she is really smart.
"That's right, Mumu said exactly what I wanted to say." Gu Jian said happily, "Since you are now publicly claiming to be Mumu's adopted husband, then everything is very reasonable. Mumu picked you up, so even if they investigate, they won't find anything. As long as you act cautiously."
Xie Xun nodded, "I'm just worried that you'll be implicated."
"If you were afraid of being implicated, I would not have spared your life in the first place," said Gu Jian.
"Now that things have come to this, you don't have to worry about these things. Just be sure to discuss it with us before doing anything."
"I understand." Xie Xun said.
"Dad, what are you going to do about Li Yuan?" Gu Yuru asked.
Mr. Gu smiled and said, "You know it's urgent?"
A blush appeared on Gu Yuru's cheeks.
"It's good that you know you're in a hurry. It won't delay your and Yunhe's business."
“I…I…”
"Mom, don't worry, Grandpa won't let you into a wolf's den."
Li Mumu said with a smile.
"Wait a little longer and see what Li Yuan's purpose is. After all, it's much easier to find out from him than from Concubine Congrong." Gu Jian said.
The Gu family enjoyed the meal very much. After all, Li Yuan was anxious, and when he was anxious, he would reveal more of his flaws.
Li Yuan was also very happy. He felt that since he had gained the trust of the Gu family, he would be able to reconcile with Gu Yuru soon.
However, in the middle of the night, Li Yuan was suddenly startled by a loud noise outside the door.
He woke up suddenly, and Li Ye and others also woke up, but they didn't dare to go out.
They forced Li Yuan to open the door, but it turned out that they were not bandits, but Chen Da and his wife. Their noses were not noses and their faces were not faces. They were holding Li Zhaozhao, who was crying non-stop, in their arms.
"What happened in the middle of the night?" Li Yuan asked.
"How dare you ask?" Mrs. Cai said angrily, "Can you even raise this child? He's only been in our house for a short time, and he's always been sick. He's never been well."
When Li Yuan heard that his youngest daughter was sick, his eyes showed heartache.
"Zhao Zhao she..."
"Her name is not Zhaozhao, her name is Zhaodi." Cai's voice was sharp.
"Zhao Zhao sounds so nice, and also..."
Cai interrupted Li Yuan and said, "Give it to us, and we have the final say on what she's called."
Li Yuan's words were retorted, "Then what are you doing..."
"I just want to ask if she has any serious illness. If she does, we won't keep her. It would be unlucky if she dies."
"No, no!" Old Madam Li was afraid that the dead girl would be sent back, so she quickly said, "She just didn't drink her mother's milk when she was young, so she is weak. Her father is a general and is in good health."
Cai looked Li Yuan up and down. "What if she takes after her mother? What if she dies early?"
"We have spent hundreds of coins just on her medical treatment these days. It's a lot of money. Otherwise... we can give up raising her and find a girl with a strong body later." Cai said.
Old Mrs. Li was very afraid that Li Zhaozhao would be sent back again because there would be no one to look after him at home.
My own home is messy enough.
"No, there's no way you're going to send back a child who's been given away. She already recognizes you and knows you're her parents."
Cai snorted coldly, "There's no evidence to support that claim, so who can say that?"
Mrs. Li understood as soon as she heard it. "You want a written receipt, right? Why bother with that?"
"That won't do." Cai snorted coldly, "Don't let me cure the child and then you regret it. By then, I'll have spent all my money and lost the child. What's the point? Either you take the child back, or you sign a document stating that you have nothing to do with the child in this life. Don't even think about taking him back."
Mrs. Li nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it right away."
When his son returns to the capital, not to mention a granddaughter, he will be able to give her eight or ten grandsons.
Even if we take a step back and say that we really can't go back, what's the point of having such a thing?
Li Yuan was a little reluctant, after all, that was not what Old Lady Li had told him before.
If I sign this document, Li Zhaozhao will really have nothing to do with me in the future.
But in the end, he signed it.
Mrs. Cai and Mrs. Chen Da exchanged glances and then left.
"I was so scared. I really thought they were going to send the child back." Old Mrs. Li said, patting her chest.
Li Rong was also shocked. With another child, there would be so much noise.
Li Yuan just sighed deeply, "I don't know if Zhao Zhao will ever be able to come back to me in the future."
That document was equivalent to a contract of sale, and it also stated that the person had paid money to buy it. If the Li family went back on their word, they could go to the government office and sue them at any time.
"Come on, it's just a girl. You can't even support her like that." Old Mrs. Li yawned and was too lazy to say anything more.
Chen Da and his wife also left the Li family happily.
"It's a great idea for Dongzi's wife to give us this. If she hadn't said it, I wouldn't have thought of this. With this document, we won't be afraid even if they go back on their word." Cai glanced at the girl in her arms, not knowing whether she had fainted from crying or was just tired from crying.
Anyway, there is no movement at the moment.
"Wife, what if the man from the Li family really goes back to be an official?" Chen Da was a little scared.
After all, he is just an ordinary citizen.
"I'm afraid he won't be an official. What's wrong with being an official? Officials have to be reasonable. If he becomes an official and wants to return our daughter, then it's up to us to decide whether to give her back or not."
"Then why don't you give it to me?"
"Idiot, why don't you give it to me?" Cai rolled her eyes at the man. "Give it to him, but I won't agree if you don't give us some benefits."
Chen Da understood, but he still had other concerns. "What if he can't go back? Who can we ask for money?"
Cai snorted coldly. She had already made up her mind. "If he can't go back, then he can't go back. This girl didn't cost much. I heard her mother is very beautiful. I think this girl is also a seductress. We can raise her for ten or eight years and then sell her directly. We can make a profit. In short, we won't lose out."
Chen Da nodded in agreement, "Wife, you are really smart."
"That's right. This family would have broken up long ago without me." Cai said proudly, "I must thank Dongzi's wife later."
Three days later, Ningxi Village.
Chen Dong's wife Feng Yue came to see her sister Feng Lan. She told her sister about what happened in Qingshui Village, and Feng Lan hurried to go to Gu's house.
"What's the rush?" Feng Yue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Silly sister, other people's family affairs are not urgent, but the Gu family's affairs cannot be delayed. Don't you know that the Gu family..."
"I know that the Gu family chased the bandits away, gave you money, taught your children to read, and... it's a lot anyway." Feng Yue said with a smile.
