Chapter 429: Taking off one’s filial piety

It took most of the night to load the goods, and when it was all over, the sky became slightly brighter.

 “Let’s sail the boat.”

"yes."

 Gu Yanli stood on the deck, looking at the vast sea, he felt a surge of courage. He had to get back everything he had lost before, whether it was the reputation of the Royal Merchant or the huge profits.

 So the trip north was full of excitement.

However, at this moment, he didn't know what would be the outcome waiting for him. He was still thinking enthusiastically that when he arrived in Sui'an City, he would have a good discussion with the Han family and take a look at this newly promoted imperial merchant. What a face.

Seven or eight ships sailed out one after another. After they left, the steward of the Su family on the shore showed up.

 “Go and tell the uncle that everything has been arranged.”

"yes."

Gu Yanli's departure went smoothly, so the seventh old man had a quiet breakfast after getting up early in the morning.

He used to be very well-maintained, but these days I don't know if he is very angry, so he has some minor problems one after another, which are not life-threatening, but they are good sometimes and bad sometimes, which is really annoying. .

 It was rare for him to feel energetic when he got up this morning, so after he received the news that his third son Gu Yanli had safely sailed to sea, he felt much better.

 “It will come in time.”

It is already mid-September, and there is not much time left before Mrs. Gu takes off her filial piety. The Gu family members will naturally show up by then.

But as for what the specific arrangement was, Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi had not heard anything yet. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the housekeeper sending a message.

"Old Master, General Gu sent someone to deliver a message, asking you and other members of the Gu family to go to your home to talk about matters before your death, saying that you want to discuss how to get rid of your filial piety."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Cao Cao has arrived.

 After hearing this, the seventh old man nodded and agreed.

 “Tell them that I will be there on time.”

"yes."

Now that the situation is calm, the Seventh Old Master will naturally not provoke Gu Shaoyu casually. Moreover, he has also investigated the fire in the Seventh House carefully and has nothing to do with Gu Shaoyu's men, so he has no more suspicions. .

Ever since Gu Shaoyu came to Jinling City, he couldn't explain why. He always felt that he was being suppressed. Unlucky things happened one after another in the seventh house. But in the end, with his current ability, he couldn't compete with Gu Shaoyu. .

 So, now we hope to get rid of the filial piety as soon as possible and send the person away when the official is restored to his original position.

They will not stay in Jinling City for a long time, so after Gu Shaoyu and the others leave, the big stone that is pressing on him can be moved away a little.

 In this way, Qifang can regain its former glory.

Hence, of course he wanted to participate in such a game, so he didn't show up for a long time, but this time he went more actively. Not long after lunch, the members of the Gu family gathered at Sanshan Hall.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi. They were both dressed very plainly today, but they did not lose their dignity.

Because he has been busy outside with the Tiger and Ben Army training recently, Gu Shaoyu has become darker and stronger, so he looks more serious and indifferent. In addition, the tragic situation of Sanfang is still remembered in everyone's mind, so everyone is worried about it. He doesn't have a good face either.

On the other hand, Du Jingyi, who was standing next to him, looked at these guests with a warm smile.

Her whole body was hydrated, and it looked like she was well nourished, so standing together with Gu Shaoyu, one was cold and the other was warm, which made people see an inexplicable harmony. The most important thing is that the couple Everyone is of the right age.

Therefore, what they exude is vitality and light. Looking back at their old age, they suddenly feel dilapidated.

 After everyone sat down, Gu Shaoyu spoke.

"I'd like to trouble you elders to make a trip. Regarding the matter of grandma's filial piety, my wife and I decided to set it on the second day of winter after discussing it. I have already calculated the date of that day with my husband. It is suitable for everyone in the family, except for my family. Snakes are somewhat in conflict with each other, so I’m calling you here today so that you can avoid them until then.”

 Hearing this, the seventh old man's face didn't look very good.

He might as well just tell him not to get involved. Who doesn't know that there are three snakes in each door of his seven rooms? He, Gu Yanxing, and Gu Yanguang's eldest son, the eldest grandson of the seventh old man.

If people born in the year of Snake are in conflict, then basically the people in their house can let Gu Yanguang or Gu Yanli travel instead.

He held a breath in his heart, and other clan members also turned their attention to the seventh old man, wanting to see what he planned to do?

Who knows, the seventh old man's face is ugly, but his words are bright.

"Since Shao Yu has already figured it out, I naturally have nothing to say, and I will naturally avoid it if the conflict arises. Then let your uncle take care of my sister-in-law's removal from filial piety. It just so happens that I am not in good health either. Just go back and rest more."

 He did not object, which was not surprising to Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi.

I also know that the seventh old man is eager to get rid of his filial piety immediately and send them all back to Sui'an City, so naturally there will be no complications.

Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu answered without any mercy.

"Uncle Qitang is getting old, so he should take more rest. If something happens to the Gu family in the future, I will send someone to send a message to uncle Datang. Anyway, he will also make the decision for Qifang in the future. He should shoulder this responsibility earlier. It’s appropriate to come.”

These words were a bit unpleasant to hear. The seventh old man became angry but suppressed it again. Finally, after giving Gu Shaoyu a cold look, he didn't bother to argue with him anymore.

Such an attitude made everyone present have some thoughts. Is it possible that the seventh old man is really afraid? So you can tolerate such provocation?

After seeing everyone's expressions, Gu Shaoyu knew that his goal was achieved. Seeing this, Du Jingyi promptly explained all the things to be done that day. After everyone had no objections, the game naturally ended.

Before leaving, Du Jingyi walked up to the seventh old man and pretended to say something tactful.

"The general is a man who fights with swords on the battlefield. Sometimes his words are straight to the point. Don't be offended if he makes your seventh uncle unhappy. He also means that he feels sorry for you that you have to take care of the housework at your age. My uncles are also the mainstay of their age, so it’s just right for them to be in charge of the family. Unlike us, the couple, who were pushed to such high positions at such a young age, it really gives me a headache even just looking at the account books.”

Du Jingyi's words made the seventh old man feel a little less angry.
