Chapter 111



After Gu Qinghuan came back, he thought about it over and over again and felt that something was not right. Gu Yunchuan's last words of advice must have something to do with it.

He is the kind of person who will never waste his last moments saying useless things.

It seems that I have to meet the original body's grandmother to find out the whole story.

That afternoon, the two followed their memory and found the alley where the old lady lived. The alley was so winding that she didn't know the way, so she asked several people before she found the old lady's house.

She seemed to have expected Gu Qinghuan to come.

"Child, I haven't seen you for many years. You've grown so big. How is Lanting? This is your man, right?" The old lady looked at her with her dim eyes, as if she was looking through her at another person.

"Grandma, Lanting hasn't come yet, I'll bring him to see you another day.

Let me tell you something, it will bring you peace of mind.”

Xu Huaian nodded slightly: "Hello, grandma."

"Great! You look really energetic, young man. I heard from your father the other day that you were getting married in the village, and I was worried. It seems that I was worrying for no reason. The young man is good, and you two will live a good life in the future."

The old lady held their hands together and smiled tenderly.

“Grandma…Gu…my dad…” Gu Qinghuan didn’t know how to tell the old lady about Gu Yunchuan’s arrest, worried that she wouldn’t be able to bear it.

The old lady sighed, as if she knew something.

"I'm old, I don't care so much. This is his own destiny. What is destined to happen must happen, and what is not destined to happen should not be forced.

"He asked you to come, didn't he?"

"How do you know?" Gu Qinghuan asked puzzledly.

The old lady got up and took out a small box from the room and stuffed it into Gu Qinghuan's arms.

"He came to see me two days ago. We haven't talked for a long time. He did a lot of stupid things in his life. Now that he is in prison, you should forget about the past.

He asked me to keep this money for him. If anything happens to him one day, he asked me to give it to you and Lanting.

As a father, he confessed to you.

But I didn't expect it to come so soon." The old lady still missed her son.

Gu Qinghuan opened the box. The money seemed to be quite a lot. It should be a backup plan left by Gu Yunchuan. She didn't expect that in the end, he would actually hand over his belongings to her and Lanting instead of Xia Shuhua.

How to say it, it was unexpected, but not touching, the belated affection was cheaper than grass.

She doesn't know her original self, so whatever Gu Yunchuan does has nothing to do with her. It's a pity that her original self can't feel this belated affection.

It's ridiculous to think about it. When the original person was here, he turned a blind eye. Now that the original person is not here, what's the point of him pretending to be so hypocritical?

The old lady gave them the things, closed the door, thanked the guests, sat cross-legged and started to beat the wooden fish.

Gu Qinghuan wanted to invite her to live with them in the future. After the small western-style house was taken back, Lanting would continue her studies in Beijing, and the two of them could depend on each other.

But the little old lady refused.

She said that after this incident, she had put the past behind her and could finally serve the Buddha with peace of mind.

Everyone has their own destiny, destiny has already been established, so she doesn't need to worry about it.

In the end, she forgot how she walked out of the alley and felt mixed emotions.

They certainly couldn't accept Gu Yunchuan's stolen money with a clear conscience, and I believe Lanting would definitely not accept it.

On the way back, when they passed by the welfare home, Gu Qinghuan got out of the car and went to the welfare home to donate the money.

After making the donation, they both looked at each other with relief and smiled.

When he got home at night, Gu Qinghuan told Gu Lanting about this, and Gu Lanting naturally praised their approach.

No matter how poor he is, he will not use this dirty money. It is better to use it to do good deeds and end up with a clean slate.

The two did not expect Gu Yunchuan to be arrested so quickly, but it made sense that the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it.

Gu Qinghuan didn't eat much at noon that day. He was so busy in the afternoon that he forgot to offer sacrifices to the five internal organs. When he got home from work in the evening, he felt so hungry that he could eat a cow.

Speaking of beef, I haven't eaten beef for a long time. There happened to be a lot of beef rolls and mutton rolls in the refrigerator of the villa. This stuff is delicious when hot pot or hot pot.

Winter is coming, and it is already very cold in the morning and evening. Eating hot pot can warm your whole body.

Gu Qinghuan sent Gu Lanting out to take care of the baby, while she and Xu Huaian were busy preparing dishes in the kitchen.

It happened that there was a coal stove in the city, so we just had to cook it in a hot pot. The dishes were easy to prepare and we could just wash them and bring them over to the hot pot.

In order to take care of the taste of the two children, I eat tomato-flavored hot pot every day. The hot pot ingredients are available in the villa, and if it is not available, I can buy them from the vending machine.

There are plenty of beef rolls and mutton rolls, and tripe and shrimp are a must. Add some meatballs, quail eggs, vermicelli, lotus root slices, kelp, mushrooms and other seasonal vegetables to make up a small hotpot on the table.

If she didn't worry about Lan Ting getting suspicious, she would want to eat a lot of food, such as duck intestines, pig brains, leg intestines...

I even want to make a hot pot, but the hot pot must be spicy to satisfy my taste.

Unfortunately, Xu Huai'an would not let her, so she did not enjoy it this time. However, Xu Huai'an promised her that after returning to her hometown, they would light a kiln of charcoal and use it to bake a stove and eat hot pot in winter. At that time, they would arrange a hot pot and enjoy it again.

Even this simple version of the small pot has already amazed many people including Xu Huai'an.

"It's delicious, sister. How did you come up with this idea? Eating the pot this way not only keeps it warm, but it also tastes better the more you eat it." Lanting chewed with a big mouthful.

Dabao and Beibei, the two fans, shouted excitedly that it was delicious and their mother was really amazing.

Xu Huaian simply kept silent and buried his head in eating to show his attitude.

Xu Huaian still goes to Xiao Zhuo to report every day. Through various psychotherapy treatments, Xiao Zhuo teaches him many methods to control his emotions.

With the help of the special medicine and spiritual spring water prepared by Gu Qinghuan, his illness has not recurred for some time. The only thing he has is the lost memory, and he still has no idea what to do. He has tried everything but still has little effect.

Gu Qinghuan began to take back the small villa.

Gu Yunchuan's debt had nothing to do with her. Debt repayment was not popular these days. He had to bear the consequences of his crime himself. At most, it had something to do with Xia Shuhua, but it had nothing to do with her.

At most, she would be criticized by others, but it would not affect her life. Her original self and Lan Ting had already endured many similar rumors in the past, so this was no exception.

You live your life on your own, and you don't need others to judge whether it is good or bad.

With a criminal father, he would not be able to go into politics or join the army in the future. Lan Ting was not interested in this, let alone her.

If Gu Yunchuan had not been so short-sighted and mean-spirited, he could have lived a comfortable life relying on the Zhong family's connections. However, he chose to narrow his own path.

Gu Qinghuan originally took the title deeds of the two villas to the district where the villas belonged to report the case. Unexpectedly, the leader of the district, a police officer named Xu Lei, actually went to Zhong Zijun's school.

People recognized her identity from her unique face and not only gave her a warm welcome, but also took the initiative to lead a police team to help her solve the problem.

Zhong Zijun has a gentle personality, is kind and generous, and is sincere to others. When Xu Lei was studying, he was poor and his family could not afford the tuition, but he had good grades and studied hard.

Zhong Zijun understood his situation, and in order not to embarrass him, she secretly funded his studies. It was not until many years later that Xu Lei learned about this.

The causes sown many years ago have brought about the results, and the cycle of cause and effect will inevitably lead to retribution.

A group of people rushed into the small western-style building where Wu Ma lived with guns and took everyone inside under control.

When Mrs. Wu's grandchildren saw the police officers in wide-brimmed hats, they burst into tears and were afraid that they would be taken away.

The moment Gu Qinghuan walked in slowly, Mother Wu seemed to have seen something horrifying and took a few steps back in shock.

"Auntie Wu, long time no see, how have you been lately?" Gu Qing's bright smile seemed scarier to Auntie Wu than a murderous ghost.

“Miss, how come you are here?” Aunt Wu stuttered.

"If I hadn't come here, how would I have known that you were living such a comfortable life in the nest of a magpie.

Wearing cotton clothes and sitting on this leather sofa is really not suitable!" Gu Qinghuan touched the leather sofa in the living room with interest.

These things should have been purchased by Zhong Zijun in the past, and they were bought cheaply by these evil people.

When Wu's mother saw that she even brought the police, it was obvious that she was here to settle the score. She was a flexible person and knelt down with a thud, crying and shouting, "I'm sorry, Miss. I'm so ungrateful."

After saying that, he slapped himself hard.

Gu Qinghuan felt embarrassed for her.

Xu Lei was in no hurry to arrest her, and obviously didn't want to give her time to speak.

"I see that you are not just a glutton, you are a black-hearted person!

When you were a nanny in my house, my mother treated you well, right?

I understand that you have many grandchildren in your family, so every time I come home, I save a portion of delicious food for you.

During the Chinese New Year and other festivals, I let you take a holiday to go home and reunite with your family. On weekdays, I allow you to make your own decisions on small matters and treat you as half a family member.

Even entrusted such an important house to you.

Is this how you repay her?

A kind person is often bullied, a kind horse is often ridden, and if you are too aggressive, I will teach you a lesson!"

As Mother Wu listened to her words, she recalled the days before and lay on the ground crying. Gu Qinghuan was right, she was a black-hearted person.

People are never satisfied and never give up. Before she went to visit the family, she thought this job was great as long as it was mediocre. However, after seeing the luxurious life of rich people, she became dissatisfied, so after Zhong Zijun entrusted her with the house, she became greedy.

In fact, she has not had a good life in the past few years. Although she lives in a big house and can collect rent from another house, she is always afraid that Zhong Zijun will come back.

At night, she often dreamed that Zhong Zijun scolded her for being a bitch and ungrateful.

"My mother has taken care of you and your siblings for many years. She has done no credit but has worked hard. Miss Gu, it won't be a big deal if we stay with you for a while. Why do you have to make such a big fuss?" Mother Wu's youngest son said with a smile.

Gu Qinghuan was so angry that he laughed.
