Gu En: "I can tell from your expressions. How can these be compared? General Yun was forced into it, she had no choice. Her brother was too weak, and she had to save her family. That was for the greater good. I'm just still a little overwhelmed. Is it really necessary to make this comparison?"
Lu Zheng sighed meaningfully: "Sometimes, I think my uncle is really lucky to have been chosen by my aunt."
Gu En: "?"
Gu Xin also said, "Although my uncle is tall, handsome, and upright in my eyes, and my aunt used to have some issues with her appearance, she has good taste! Really, I'm very grateful to my aunt, otherwise, my uncle really would have... oh..."
Zheng Qiu doesn't like to comment on other people's elders, but she respects them in her heart.
Given Shan Nonghou's way of speaking and his completely straightforward nature, it's really going to be difficult for him to find a wife.
Gu En was completely dumbfounded: "Third sister, brother Yuan, you two are really talking strangely today! How did this bring up my parents again? My dad is fine! My mom is fine too! Why are you talking about them?"
Gu Xin and Lu Zheng shook their heads in unison and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered it and wanted to say something."
The two exchanged a glance, then looked at Gu En.
Lu Zheng: "Uncle is doing well."
Gu Xin: "My aunt is very nice too."
Then they said in unison, "Enzi, you're pretty good too. You're quite adept at learning from them, you've picked up all their good points."
Gu En: "..."
It sounds like they're praising him, but it feels like they're actually insulting him.
But I don't know what I said to him, it's such a strange feeling.
"Knock knock knock!" There was a knocking sound at the door, accompanied by a dog barking. The four of them immediately became serious.
Gu En quickly got up to open the door.
"Baiyi, you're finally back!" As soon as the door opened, Gu En looked outside to see if Baiyi had brought the people back.
The man in white led a person bound with rope to Gu Xin.
"Is it him?" Gu Xin looked at the bound man.
This man was of medium build, dressed in coarse cloth, with a stubble beard, a颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of listlessness, decadence, and a lack of vitality) look on his face, pale complexion, and lips that looked bloodless.
Bloodstains were still on his arm. Upon closer inspection, the clothes on his arm had been torn and were now a bloody mess, undoubtedly the work of that dog.
"This man is Liu An, the butcher of Qi'an Town, the murderer of Hu Qiangzi!" the man in white said, then kicked Liu the butcher. "Why don't you kneel down and greet the princess?"
Liu the butcher fell to the ground with a light kick from the man in white.
"Woof, woof..." The dog struggled to break free of its leash and get closer to Gu Xin, but was pulled back by its owner, Xiao Er.
Liu the butcher seemed very frightened and moved several times in another direction.
Gu Xin walked over to the dog and patted its head: "Good boy, you've worked hard these past two days. The kitchen has prepared some good food for you. Let your owner take you to eat!"
"Woof, woof woof..." The dog wagged its tail happily.
"Thank you, Princess!" The waiter thanked the dog on its behalf, then obediently led the dog to the kitchen.
"Baiyi, you guys should go get something to eat first. We've caught them, no rush. The night is long, we have time to interrogate them slowly," Gu Xin said to Baiyi and the others.
"Thank you, Third Miss (Princess)!" The woman in white led the others to the kitchen.
They were indeed exhausted; they hadn't eaten much all day.
