Chapter 55: So That's It 1
Gu Laoer and Lin looked at their departing backs and shook their heads helplessly.
Lin said worriedly, "I'm afraid this matter won't end so easily. We don't know what will happen in the future." Gu Lao Er patted her shoulder and said, "Let's take it one step at a time. As long as we have a clear conscience, it's fine."
The storm is finally over.
Gu Laoer was helped in by his wife and applied some medicinal wine.
…
The next morning, they got up early.
The couple discussed it last night and decided to go to their daughter's house this morning.
Let’s discuss what to do about Liu Suyu’s matter?
So they went out in the first rays of sunshine early in the morning.
The wind was bitingly cold. Fortunately, they were wearing warm clothes today, otherwise they would have been frozen to death by the time they arrived at their daughter's house.
They also brought some things for their daughter and son-in-law.
After arriving at his daughter's house, Gu Laoer knocked on the door first.
It’s so cold today that Gu Leyou hasn’t gotten up yet.
However, when he heard some noise at the gate of the courtyard, Lu Yan got up, put on his clothes, went out, opened the door, and took a look, and was shocked.
He said, "Father and mother-in-law, why are you here at this hour? It's so cold today. You two old people walked here. Come in quickly."
Gu Laoer and his wife were welcomed into the inner room by their son-in-law. After they arrived at the inner room, Lu Yan quickly brought a charcoal brazier and started a fire.
Let’s warm up the fire for these two old people first.
Then he went to the bedroom and quickly woke his wife up.
But when he arrived at the bedroom, his wife had already gotten up and was getting dressed. He happened to see this scene when he came in.
Gu Leyou felt a little shy and almost crawled back into bed.
"Hurry up, my parents are here. I'll go to the kitchen to cook. They probably haven't even had breakfast yet."
"good."
Gu Leyou put on her clothes, washed her face, and saw her parents when she walked out of the inner room.
She brought a small chair and sat next to her parents.
As she warmed herself by the fire, she asked, "Dad and Mom are here so early. Is there something urgent that needs to be discussed with me? In fact, you should send someone to inform me, and we, the younger generation, can just go over there."
"We were afraid that the child was frightened and needed your company, so we didn't dare let anyone notify you. We came here by ourselves." Gu Laoer explained.
"Then just tell me what you want to talk to me about. You must want my help with something. There's no need to be so polite with my daughter. Just say it directly."
Gu Leyou looked at his parents' expressions and felt that things were not that simple.
Gu Laoer hesitated for a while, but finally said it.
"My daughter, I'll give you some money. Go to the county government office and ask them to take care of Liu Jia Su Yu. After all, she is a girl. How can a girl bear to stay in jail for so many days?"
Gu Leyou exploded when he heard this.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? You're still concerned about their family's affairs. His daughter deserves it. Who told him to drug such a young child? Luckily, the child is lucky, otherwise this incident would have cost her life."
"That's right. I've told your father not to bother you. You've just gotten married and you're already busy with your own family affairs, but you still want to meddle in other people's affairs. But your father has already promised them, so you have to come." Lin agreed helplessly.
"She's a girl. What if she gets wronged in prison and her family comes to find us? Instead of doing that, we might as well spend some money to take care of it. We owe them this." Gu Laoer said helplessly.
Gu Leyou frowned, disapproving in his heart: "Dad, Mom, what's your logic? Liu Suyu did such a vicious thing, she should be punished, why should we care about her? We don't settle accounts with her because of our past friendship. Now we have to go to the county government to make arrangements. Isn't this helping the tyrant?"
Gu Laoer sighed, "My daughter, you don't understand. There are many things involved. Liu Suyu's family has many relatives in this place, and they are all very capable of making trouble. If we don't take care of it, there will probably be more trouble in the future."
Gu Leyou sneered: "Dad, you are too timid. We are upright and honest, so why should we be afraid of them? If we give in this time because of fear, they will only get worse in the future."
Lin watched the father and daughter quarreling and hurriedly advised: "Okay, okay, stop arguing, Leyou, your father is also thinking about our family. Although Liu Suyu made a mistake, she is a girl after all, and she may suffer in prison."
Gu Leyou stood up, emotionally agitated: "Mom, why do you say that? Did Xiaoyao, who was drugged by her, suffer in vain? If it wasn't for good luck, the child's life would be ruined.
We should let her reflect on her actions in jail. Do we really have to let her spend a few days comfortably in jail? Then it would be meaningless for us to let her be punished. ”
Lu Yan was listening on the side and also spoke up: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, Le You is right. What Liu Suyu did is really outrageous. We can't go against justice and help her."
Gu Laoer felt annoyed when he saw his son-in-law objecting, “You are all too young and don’t understand the interests involved.
If anything happens to her in prison, her family will definitely be angry with us, and then we won't have peace. ”
Gu Leyou's eyes were firm: "Dad, I know you want to help her and let her suffer less, but this is a bit unfair to Xiaoyao."
Lin thought for a moment and said, "Le You, your father has also promised them, what should we do now?"
Gu Leyou pondered for a moment and said, "Dad, since you have already agreed, I will go and explain it to their family. We can send her some clothes and bedding so that she won't be cold and hungry in prison."
Gu Lao Er nodded helplessly: "It can only be done this way. Alas, I just hope that this matter can be settled now and no more trouble will arise."
Gu Leyou continued, "Dad, Mom, we must have our own principles in doing things in the future. We can't go against our conscience just because we are afraid of trouble. We must set a good example for our children and let them know what is right and what is wrong."
Lu Yan also echoed: "Father and mother-in-law, Le You is right. In this world, we must uphold justice so that we can have a clear conscience."
Gu Laoer looked at his daughter and son-in-law. Although he was still worried, he also understood that what they said made sense: "Okay, I'll do as you say. I just hope that this storm will be over soon and our family can live a stable life."
After having breakfast at their daughter's house, they left.
After leaving their daughter's house, Gu Laoer and Lin were still feeling a little heavy. They know that they may face some challenges in the future, but looking at the firm attitude of their daughter and son-in-law, they feel that as long as they stick to their original intentions, they can cope with all unknown difficulties.
