"Yes, I'm back!"
Mrs. Lu, oh, her name should be Hong Qiujue. She ran over, helped her mother up, hugged her and cried.
"It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back! I was so scared that I couldn't see you for the last time. Now I'm finally relieved."
Gu Yunjie hugged Hong Qiujue tightly, for she was afraid that if she let go, her daughter would disappear.
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? I wish you a long life! Your daughter will never leave you, and we will live together."
Hong Qiujue comforted her mother.
Then he let go of his mother and said to her, "Mother, this is my daughter's husband, your son-in-law Huo Zhiyuan."
"Son-in-law Huo Zhiyuan pays his respects to mother and wishes her a long life and good health!"
Huo Zhiyuan immediately saluted Gu Yunxi.
"Good! Good! What a good son-in-law! Get up quickly."
Gu Yunying was very satisfied to see Huo Zhiyuan, who was honest and handsome.
If my daughter marries such an honest and kind man, she will not be bullied in the future.
"Thank you, mother!"
Huo Zhiyuan stood up and said.
Hong Qiujue then introduced Huo Jinqian and Gao Zhijun: "Mother, this is the eldest princess's son, he is now my daughter's son Jinqian. That is his wife-to-be, my daughter's future daughter-in-law Gao Zhijun."
"Jinqian, Zhijun is calling for help!"
Huo Jinqian and Gao Zhijun bowed to Gu Yunxi.
"Hello, grandma! I wish you a long life!"
"Hello, grandma! I wish you good health, youth and beauty!"
"Good, good! When grandma sees you, she will be free of all illnesses and will surely live a long life. She will watch you get married, have children, and enjoy the company of grandchildren!"
Gu Yunxi said happily.
Huo Jinqian helped Gao Zhijun up and said, "Grandma, my eldest and second brothers have given birth to a son. When you go back, you can play with your grandchildren every day."
"Big brother, second brother? What's going on?"
Gu Yunying asked her daughter.
"Mom, I'll tell you this later."
Hong Qiujue planned to tell her mother about Jinzhou and Jinhao later.
Just at this time, Qinglan came to call everyone to have lunch.
After lunch, Hong Qiujue helped her mother back to her room. She told Gu Yunying about her encounter with Huo Zhiyuan in Liangzhou and how she had impersonated his wife. She also told her that she had given birth to a pair of sons.
Huo Jinqian and Gao Zhijun took Qinglong and Moxue out to visit Anling County. They wanted to see if there were any local specialties to bring back.
As the New Year is approaching, the streets are very busy, with small vendors selling New Year's goods and people buying them everywhere.
Gao Zhijun bought a lot of local specialties and brought them back to Taizhou.
"Please let my daughter go! She is too young and really can't serve anyone."
From the front came a woman's heart-wrenching plea for mercy and a little girl's cries.
"Auntie, what happened?"
Gao Zhijun pointed at three men in front of her who were fighting over a little girl, and a woman nearby who was begging for mercy, and asked an older woman nearby.
"Is the little girl from out of town?"
The old lady looked at Gao Zhijun, as well as the two men and one woman beside her. They were all good-looking and dressed like people from wealthy families.
"Yes, I just arrived today!"
Gao Zhijun told the truth.
"Then don't meddle in other people's business. Those three men are the underlings of the owner of Tianxia Gambling House. That little girl is the daughter of Wei Laoer. Wei Laoer is a gambler who lost his land, his house, and now even his daughter to the owner as the twelfth concubine. The woman next to them is Ren Laoer's wife. She is begging those three men to release her daughter."
"How pitiful! Wei Lao Er is such a piece of shit. How can a twelve-year-old girl wait on a forty-year-old man? Isn't this going to drive her to death?"
The aunt next to the old lady cursed indignantly.
"That's right. This Wei Lao Er not only forced his daughter to jump into the fire pit, but also forced her parents to death. He is really not a human being, worse than pigs and dogs."
Another old lady joined in scolding Wei Laoer. Everyone felt sorry for the little girl, but no one dared to step forward to help.
Twelve years old? Even younger than me. Has she developed yet? I haven't had my period yet, so she shouldn't have either, right? This is such a pervert, not even sparing an undeveloped little girl. How perverted must that boss be?
"Qinglong, I'll leave those three men to you. Just keep them alive."
Gao Zhijun said to Qinglong.
"Yes, Miss!"
After Qinglong finished speaking, he went up and beat up the three men severely, making them cry for their parents.
"Auntie, what are you going to do next?"
Gao Zhijun rescued the mother and daughter and asked the aunt.
Wei Laoer's wife hugged her trembling daughter and comforted her before saying, "Thank you so much, young lady, for saving my life. I don't know what to do. They won't let us go."
Thinking of the ruthlessness of the gambling house owner, Wei Laoer's wife lost her mind.
"Auntie, who else is there in your family?"
Gao Zhijun asked Wei Laoer's wife.
"Besides the child's father, there is also a son and a daughter."
Wei Laoer’s wife spoke honestly.
"Is that so? If I put your man in jail and help you get out of here, would you be willing?"
Ever since she took charge of this trivial matter, she thought about arranging them.
As the saying goes, be a good person to the end and see the Buddha to the west!
If you meddle in their affairs and then leave, you are forcing them to die faster.
"Yes! Yes! If Miss really sends him to jail, what will happen to the money he owes?"
For the sake of her child, Wei Laoer's wife is of course willing to leave here.
"He's in jail, so he doesn't have to pay back the money he owes. I'll arrange for you to leave here and live in another county. I'll also give you a hundred taels of silver to start some small business. Are you willing?"
Gao Zhijun told them what she had come up with.
