Lu Zheng nodded: "Yeah, I got beaten up once. Now I know how those people I beat with sacks when we were kids felt."
Gu Shouxin asked with a smile, "How does it feel?"
Lu Zheng said, "It hurts! It hurts so much!"
Gu Shouxin didn't expect his answer and asked again, "Your kung fu is pretty good! Someone can even put a sack over your head?"
Lu Zheng sighed, "There are mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people. They ambushed me. They startled my horse at night, causing me to fall off, and then tied me up and put a noose around my neck. I was thinking about other things at the time, so I wasn't on guard at all and fell into the trap. Ever since I was beaten last time, I've been determined to practice my skills hard and find those two as soon as possible to give them a good beating!"
Gu Shouxin: "...Call me when you find him, I'll help you! After all, you helped Niannian kidnap Cheng Rui and beat him up last time."
You probably won't have a chance!
Lu Zheng nodded: "Great! Those two are quite skilled. One of them is probably the eunuch, and the other man seems to be a new recruit in the army. He sounds like a strong man, but his punches and kicks are completely disorganized, so he's probably a novice. The last punch from the eunuch almost killed me!"
Gu Shouxin: Shut up! If you say Niannian is a novice, and she hears you, you'll get a beating.
Lu Zheng sighed again: "It's probably someone from my stepmother's side! Sigh, once you have a stepmother, you'll have a stepfather too!"
Gu Shouxin was taken aback. Was this kid about to reveal his true identity? He feigned surprise and asked, "Your stepmother has connections with the royal family? And she can even get your father-in-law to help her?"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Yes, she and the empress in the palace are sisters. She probably doesn't like me and wants to kill me! Second Uncle, it's late, I'm going back now. You should get some rest too. I'm going back to the Zhou family tomorrow with my eldest uncle. I'll play chess with you again when we get back to the village!"
Gu Shouxin chuckled: This kid is doing this on purpose, isn't he? Is he planning to reveal his background little by little?
"Get lost!" Gu Shouxin kicked Lu Zheng.
"Get lost!" Lu Zheng left with a grin, but the smile faded once he was outside.
Yes, his stepmother wants to kill him!
Then it's fine if he dies. He'll die when he goes back this time. His death will put your entire Zhenguo Duke's Mansion at ease.
Lu Zheng let out a breath, turned his head and glanced at the Gu family. It was pitch black all around, and only here was there light.
He didn't care about the Lu family, but he would still not let them off the hook in this life, even though he had already taken revenge once in his previous life.
...
Gu Nian finally produced toilet paper in mid-March, which made Cai Xiaolian extremely happy.
He hugged Gu Nian and kissed her several times: "Oh, my darling, my sweetheart, my precious baby!"
Gu Nian: "Mom, have you forgotten the time you threw a shoe at the back of my head? Your precious little darling's head isn't even as good as a shoe!"
Cai Xiaolian: "Is that so? I don't remember. Xinxin, is that true?"
Gu Xin blinked. The way her sister and mother were looking at her was terrifying! "I can't take it anymore, I have to go find Dad."
"Oh, I remember now, Dad made me practice the piano. Mom, sister, I'll take this paper to Dad so he can take a look!" Gu Xin grabbed a stack of tissues, rubbed her head, and slipped away.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian exchanged a glance and both smiled.
"Xiao Lian, my beloved Hui Xin, I've come. Have you all missed me?" At that moment, Madam Li's voice rang out from outside.
“Aunt Luo, Xin Xin misses you so much! It’s only been a few days, but it feels like years have passed. Aunt Luo, you’ve become even more beautiful! If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have thought you were Mu Yan’s mother; I thought you were his sister.” Gu Xin’s sincere voice came through the phone.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian: Not only are they clever, but their little mouths are becoming more and more endearing.
