Gongsun Gui had been pulled out by Gongsun Jue and was lying on the ground like a dead fish. Gongsun Jue was in no better condition either. At this moment, the two brothers felt a sense of shared misery.
Gong Yi wholeheartedly agreed with Lu Mo's words, "Little Lu is right, he really isn't very useful, and yet he doesn't even have any self-awareness. Hmph, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your reach. There are plenty of talented people out there!"
"The old man is right. Most great people live in seclusion in the city. It's always better to be humble."
Lu Mo knew Gong Yi's intentions and cooperated fully, hoping that these two foolish brothers could understand the old man's good intentions. However, once people have gone down a dead end, it is not so easy to pull them back.
Gong Yi looked at the two disheveled brothers and roared, "Aren't you ashamed? Get yourselves together and get out of here!"
A flash of hatred crossed Gongsun Gui's eyes. He got up and staggered away, but Gongsun Jue walked up to Lu Mo and said coldly, "I will compete with you again!"
Lu Mo smiled slightly, "I'll be waiting."
Gongsun Jue is fairly upright, but he has a bad temper. His biggest flaw is that he is stupid and doesn't understand his place.
Gongsun Jue turned and left, determined to return and hone his skills to wash away the humiliation of the day.
Gong Yi shook his head helplessly. It was truly worrying that his descendants were so useless. Sigh!
"Grandpa, don't worry. Children and grandchildren have their own lives. We can't worry about that," Ye Qingqing comforted him.
Gong Yi smiled bitterly, "I don't care whether they live or die. What I'm worried about is that there's no one to inherit such a huge fortune. Our Gongsun family has built up a business over hundreds of years. We can't let it be destroyed in my hands. But look at these unfilial children, not one of them is any good. How many more years can I live!"
"Don't worry, as long as you don't do anything reckless, twenty years is more than enough time for you to slowly cultivate a qualified successor," Ye Qingqing assured him, patting her chest.
Twenty years is a conservative estimate. Gong Yi has an excellent constitution. If he hadn't gotten cancer, his normal lifespan would have been at least over a hundred years. Now, with her health-preserving elixir, living to be a hundred or twenty years old is a piece of cake.
Gong Yi's eyes lit up. "Can he really live another twenty years?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you? But you can't do anything reckless, like taking a concubine and indulging in frivolous eating and drinking. Otherwise, your twenty years will be in jeopardy," Ye Qingqing joked, earning a big eye roll from Gong Yi.
He's 93 years old, why would he take a concubine? Besides, he's never been interested in women. If he had time to play around with women, how much money could he possibly make?
Gong Yan was all smiles. In another twenty years, he would have nothing to worry about and could properly raise his fifth-generation descendants!
With his worries gone, Gong Yi smiled so much that his eyes crinkled with wrinkles. He was extremely grateful to Ye Qingqing and was determined to pay the little girl a generous reward as part of her dowry.
"That's great! I need to get those brats to have babies as soon as possible, and then raise them all together. I can't let those brats cause trouble." Gong Yi quickly came up with an idea.
He learned a lesson: none of his descendants, spanning three or four generations, had amounted to anything, mainly because he hadn't personally raised them; they had all been spoiled and ruined by their parents.
Now he's figured it out. If he manages those kids like soldiers from a young age, he's sure he'll be able to find a good successor!
"Are they willing to have children?" Ye Qingqing asked doubtfully.
Gong Yi snorted, "A 100 million yuan reward for each child they have, they'll reproduce more prolifically than pigs!"
Ye Qingqing was speechless and gave a thumbs up.
