Looking at the contents, Gu Xing couldn't help but wonder if he and Gu Rong wouldn't have had such a miserable life all these years if he had opened it back then.
But only for a moment. When Gu Xing saw the letter left by her grandfather, she was shocked and couldn't believe it: "This...is what's written here real? You went to see it and it's really there??"
"I went to check, but there was nothing inside. However, the signs of moving were very recent, so someone must have taken things before I did," Gu Rong said, not telling the truth about what was inside.
With so many treasures, not to mention how she transported them away, just finding a place to store them would be a problem.
Moreover, if Gu Xing finds out and gets drunk or gets tricked into revealing information, then there could be serious problems.
She might as well not tell him at all, and then she can take it out in another way when she needs it later. There's no need to complicate things.
Gu Rong continued to explain, shifting the blame onto Gu Qiang: "We were young at the time and didn't know about our maternal grandfather's family affairs, but he certainly did."
The family has never had to worry about food or clothing these past few years, and his monthly salary of sixty or seventy yuan is definitely not enough. Do you think it's possible that he moved the things away?
After being reported, some people also knew about my grandfather's family situation and wanted those things, but Gu Qiang didn't want to give them up, so he shifted the blame onto us so he could get away unscathed.
Following Gu Rong's train of thought, Gu Xing felt that it made a lot of sense: "What you said makes sense."
The fact that they were able to get Gu Qiang out shows that they have a strong background and considerable power; we are no match for them.
"Brother, think about it. If they really make a move, are they more confident in Beijing, or in this unfamiliar countryside?" Seeing Gu Xing deep in thought, Gu Rong patted his shoulder and continued:
"If the other party were truly omnipotent, they wouldn't have sent Gu Qiang and his companion to the countryside; they would have simply brought us back."
Brother, don't worry so much. Being together now is the best thing. I'm telling you this so you can be mentally prepared.
"Yes, it's best that we're still together." Even if it costs him his life, he would never let his sister get hurt again.
The two chatted for a while longer, recounting all the troubles that Gu Qiang and his companion might have caused since their arrival, and also discussing possible solutions.
