Chapter 712 Brotherly Love 1

Guo Yan never mentioned it before, and now she doesn't want to mention it either, for fear of dirtying Feng Qingxue's ears.

The evil of evil people lies in that they judge others by their own standards.

Feng Qingxue wanted to ask what Liu Hongxiu said, but when she saw Guo Yan's expression, she knew it was definitely not a good thing, so she didn't bother to ask further. "Uncle and auntie should be mentally prepared for this matter. After all, it's easier to avoid an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark."

"Don't worry!" Guo Yan reached out and patted the back of her hand. "Your uncle and I have been through more than 30 years of ups and downs. We crawled out of the pile of dead bodies and got to where we are now. It's not something we can do with passion alone. If your uncle didn't have any brains, how could he handle government affairs and other matters in front of the old leader with ease?"

Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "Dad and I both understand Uncle's abilities, so we are not worried that Uncle will not be able to cope with it. We are just worried that the villain will attack him unexpectedly and he will not be able to defend himself in time."

Guo Yan nodded. "I know what to do. Your uncle is not at home. Whatever happens in the capital has nothing to do with him."

When she said this, a hint of hostility flashed in Guo Yan's eyes.

Feng Qingxue didn't ask her what she was going to do, but Guo Yan didn't hide her intentions and whispered, "Su Junshu covets your uncle's position, so how could there not be someone coveting his position? There are too many monks and too little porridge, who doesn't want to squeeze others out and get a higher position? This is the mentality of most people, people go up and water flows down, and everyone wants to be promoted three levels, which is easy to understand. Su Junshu has a pigtail on his head, and others are afraid of his great achievements, so they dare not catch him blatantly."

Feng Qingxue hummed, "Auntie, are you trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"

"What do you mean by borrowing a knife to kill someone? Look at what you said." Guo Yan would never admit that this was her first thought. "Didn't Bai Xue want to get Su Junshu's original wife to the capital? I'll just help her. Su Junshu's original wife is called Hong Zhen. She gave birth to a son for Su Junshu. The mother and son are farmers at home. Their village and their Su family finally had a big man like Su Junshu. They are very protective of their child and do not allow Hong Zhen and her son to leave their hometown to avoid ruining Su Junshu's reputation."

Feng Qingxue frowned, "Isn't this too overbearing?"

Guo Yan sighed, "Although it is New China, many places in the countryside still have a strong sense of clan consciousness and still uphold the tradition of not airing family disgrace in public. Everyone is proud of Su Junshu. It's just a pity for Hong Zhen and her son, who have to live a life of poverty, while Su Junshu has a beautiful wife and concubines, many children, and lives a life like a god in the capital."

Even though supplies were scarce, Su Junshu's family never lacked food or clothing, which was a hundred times better off than his original wife and children.

"Under such circumstances, can Bai Xue successfully get Hong Zhen to the capital? Life is not easy for them as mother and son, and they probably don't want to bring any harm to Su... Marshal Su!" Feng Qingxue said.

Guo Yan nodded and said, "Bai Xue definitely can't do it on her own. It will be different if I help her."

She paused and frowned slightly, "Actually, I don't really want to involve Hong Zhen and her son in dealing with Su Junshu. If anything happens to Su Junshu, it will be hard for them to stay in their hometown."

Feng Qingxue said hurriedly: "I was just about to tell you, why bother involving innocent people? Didn't you say that he has a pigtail?"
