Chapter 189 The Drunkard's Intention Is Not to Drink
Old Madam Xiang was panicked.
"Mom, she beat Prime Minister Gao like that. When she wakes up, she will come to settle the score with us. We won't be able to get the things from the gambling house back. What should we do?" Xiang Mingli immediately burst into tears.
The older lady Xiang became more and more annoyed the more she looked at him: "All you know is to cry and cry. Why don't you go find your eldest brother?"
"Okay, okay." Xiang Mingli said and was about to run out the door.
"etc."
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"Keep a knife on your body. Your eldest brother has such a bad temper that he won't compromise unless he's scared."
Xiang Mingli nodded repeatedly: "I understand. I'll go."
"Madam, would you like breakfast?" the maid asked in a low voice.
He waved to the old lady, and after thinking for a while, he felt a little uneasy: "Go get me a dagger too."
The maid had an idea in mind, and turned around and took out a patterned dagger from the drawer.
She asked the old lady to take it and put it in her sleeve. She was afraid that the eldest child would not pay attention to the second child's crying, so she had to take action.

Xiang Minghou never expected that he would run into Mr. Gu before he even entered the house when he returned home. It seems that Mr. Gu has been too diligent in visiting the general recently.
"Lord Ming, how is the war at the border?" Old Gu followed him in with a thick face.
"Mr. Gu is in charge of business. When did he start caring about the war?"
"Of course. If there's a war, the caravans can't pass through, so I came here to ask around." He was just making small talk.
Seeing his serious expression, Xiang Minghou also revealed something: "The war situation is not going well. The emperor intends to let me take command."
"Okay then. When are we leaving? My eldest grandson, Gu Shuo, is also going to Yuzhou in the next few days. You can still come with him for a while."
Xiang Minghou frowned: "Does Mr. Gu know that there is a war over there?"
"South..." Mr. Gu really knew it clearly.
"Mr. Gu has other intentions." Xiang Minghou was going to the north, which was not the same direction as Yuzhou at all!
"Haha, look at my brain. I'm old and I waited for the little girl at the palace gate all night. I'm a little confused. I have to go back and catch up on some sleep." Gu Lao said as he turned around. Without saying a word to Marquis Xiang Ming, he raised his hand to hold his head, his body swaying: "Ouch, ouch, I can't take it anymore. I feel dizzy..."
Xiang Minghou had no choice but to step forward and support him: "Just one day."
"Okay." Mr. Gu smiled happily.
Marquis Xiang Ming knew about Old Gu's cunning intentions. Although he was a little reluctant, he was old after all. So he tolerated him this time because he had waited for Pangtuan for half a night at the palace gate.
Mr. Gu cares so much about Fatty Tuan, but it seems from his words that he doesn't know anything about Fatty Tuan.
Based on his understanding, Gu Shuo would not say that Mr. Gu simply liked Fatty, so it was fine that way.
"Brother...Brother..." The crying voice was rang out.
Xiang Minghou's brows were already furrowed, and they furrowed even deeper when he heard the voice.
"Brother, you're finally back." Xiang Mingli ran up to him and cried.
"Look at what you look like." Xiang Minghou scolded.
"Brother, if you come back later you won't be able to see me and mother." Xiang Mingli cried.
Xiang Minghou thought something big had happened when he heard this: "What happened?"
"It's all Xiao Ye...that damned Ye Qianning."
"Second brother, you'd better watch your words. This is the last time I'm warning you." When mentioning Ye Qianning, Xiang Minghou's face changed.
Gu Lao had long known what kind of people this family was. He looked at them with disdain and said, "Ming Hou, you didn't see that when you were not at home, your mother called you a little bastard in front of Zhanfu and this old man, and even threatened to kick you out of the Xiang family."
