Chapter 25
After discussing with Gu Ye, Gu Xiyan started to prepare to leave. The Gu family's property occupies the majority in Danyang, and Xie Wan asked Xie Wan to tidy up and take away the property in other places.
As for the servants of the Gu family, Gu Xiyan gave them a generous fortune, allowing them to fend for themselves.
Ah Qi and the others watched Gu Xiyan ask the housekeeper to return the servant's body deed to them, they were extremely sad, and the atmosphere in the mansion seemed extremely heavy for a while.
There are also some Baoyi who grew up in Gu’s parents who are unwilling to leave. Gu Xiyan said at the beginning that those who are willing to leave will be given a generous fortune, and those who are unwilling to leave can follow and take care of Gu Ye and his wife.
Ah Da and Ah Qi refused to leave. The butler looked at the contracts of several shops that Gu Xiyan handed over, with tears in his eyes: "Miss, I have been with the master for more than 30 years, and I can't leave."
Gu Xiyan smiled bitterly: "Uncle Chen, I know. But the Gu family has so many properties, leaving like this will be ruined at once. You have also worked hard for the Gu family. Give these to you, and you can be on your own. Dad trusts you, so do I." I respect you, it is already the best choice to hand over the Gu family's property to you, and it doesn't mean that the Gu family is completely gone."
Uncle Chen was silent for a long time when he heard the words. He reached out and took over the deeded shops, crying: "Miss, I understand what you mean. No matter where the master or miss is going, please remember to inform me. I, Lao Chen, will take care of everything in the Gu family. Watch it. If you can come back one day, these are all from the Gu family. "
After explaining everything, Gu Xiyan sat in the yard and didn't speak for a long time.Since she told Ye Qinming about her plan yesterday, she has not seen her again.
On the other side, Ah Da inquired about the news, and the Yang family and Zhizhou Mansion seemed to be making some subtle moves, and there had been some sneaky people wandering around in the Gu Mansion during this time.Gu Xiyan knew that the calm now was just the calm before the storm, and she knew she couldn't wait any longer.
The doctor who came to treat Gu Ye's injuries has already come. When Gu Xiyan sent the doctor out, he asked, "Doctor Hua, when will my father's body be able to move around? Will it be a problem if he needs to run around?"
Dr. Hua has a close relationship with the Gu family and is also a trustworthy person. He listened to it and pondered for a while: "As far as the situation of the master is concerned, at least five or six days of recuperation is needed to withstand the exhaustion of the journey, otherwise I am afraid that I will suffer."
Gu Xiyan felt a little cold in his heart, but he still nodded his head: "Thank you, Doctor Hua, Ada sent Doctor Hua out."
She stood where she was, stretched out her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, five or six days was too long, I'm afraid it would be too late by then.
Gu Xiyan stood there for a long time before returning to the yard.She didn't notice that the pair of eyes behind her also looked at her for a long time, helplessly and depressed.
Gu Xiyan sat dryly in the yard for a long time, while Ah Qi and Xiao Wu stood guard in the corridor, their eyes filled with worry.
Gu Xiyan came back to his senses, and waved to the two of them: "Ah Qi, Xiao Wu, help me call Zhuolang over, I have something to tell him, take him to my study."
When Ah Qi brought Zhuolang over, Gu Xiyan was stuffing a letter into the envelope.She raised her head and said softly, "Ah Qi, let me talk to A-Lang alone."
Although Zhuo Lang was young, he had a clear mind. Looking at the fairy-like Gu family sister in front of him, he felt a little uneasy.
"Alang, you're sure you won't leave, right?"
"Sister Gu, you take us in and bury our parents. You are our great benefactors. No matter what happens, I will not leave at this time. Moreover, I don't like Danyang City. Linger and the others are still young. It is not necessary to stay here. It's not a good idea." He looked serious, and he didn't just say that he was just repaying his favor, he was smart and honest enough.
Gu Xiyan smiled: "You are a good boy and a smart boy. I asked you to come today because I have a very important thing to ask you."
Zhuolang stood up straight: "Sister Gu, just say it."
But after hearing what Gu Xiyan said, the young man's face was flushed, and tears welled up in his eyes, and he couldn't believe it: "You don't go! They said you were in collusion with the demon, you stayed, didn't you stay... didn't you die? Sister Gu , you can’t do this, there must be a way, let’s find a way together. I can’t, I can’t see you being harmed by those heartless things like your parents.”
Gu Xiyan sighed softly: "Alang, they are coming for me, and I can only leave if I stay with you. If I want to leave, none of you will let go, you know?"
Zhuolang gritted his teeth, wanted to refute but couldn't speak, finally choked up and said: "Then what about the master and madam? They are only your daughter, how could they leave you and leave."
Gu Xiyan's hands were tense, and blue veins could be seen faintly on her skin. After a while, she said with difficulty: "So I need your help. Zhuolang, my father and mother like you three brothers and sisters very much. After taking them away, you will recognize each other." They are foster parents, please, take care of them for me, okay?"
Zhuolang bowed his head in silence for a long time, and finally said in a low voice: "Master and Madam will be uncomfortable, they won't be willing."
Gu Xiyan's eyes were red, she turned her head and suppressed her emotions: "I know, but I can't do anything, I can't let them lose their daughter and their life. Zhuolang, can you help me?"
Zhuolang held back his tears: "The Gu family is my benefactor, as long as Zhuolang is around, he will definitely take good care of Mrs. Madam."
After arranging everything, Gu Xiyan was going to accompany Gu Ye and Xie Wan to have lunch, but just as he entered Gu Ye's yard, he heard Gu Ye and Xie Wan's panicked voices.
Gu Xiyan's heart tightened, and he walked over quickly: "Father, mother, what's the matter?"
Gu Ye was sitting on the bed at the moment, groping around on his body, and Xie Wan also had a look of panic and surprise: "This... what's going on? It's really all good."
Seeing her daughter approaching, Xie Wan said at a loss: "Yan'er, your father's injuries suddenly healed."
Gu Xiyan was taken aback, and Gu Ye over there was also puzzled: "I couldn't get up in the morning, and now I can't see any scars on my body."
Gu Xiyan came back to her senses and understood what happened, she couldn't help lowering her head and laughing, that person was actually very gentle.When she raised her head, her face was already calm: "Father and mother, don't panic, at least it's a good thing for us at the moment, it's not too late, get someone to prepare right away, and leave Danyang City quietly."
Gu Ye and Xie Wan looked at each other, and looked at Gu Xiyan with complicated eyes.Gu Ye sighed: "Okay, I don't know what happened, the people from Dongzhou haven't arrived yet. I'll contact you again to avoid this disaster... Dad, Dad will send you to Dongzhou, where There are immortals who can protect you and will not let you be harmed by those things."
It was difficult for Gu Ye to speak, Xie Wan hesitated to speak, and finally she did not speak with red eyes.They were reluctant to part with their daughter, but they wanted her to be safe and sound rather than having her always with them.
After hearing this, Gu Xiyan felt as if a ball of cotton was clogged in her heart, feeling very depressed.She has been in this world for 18 years, and she has never been sorry to anyone, except her parents, who owe the most but have no way to repay.
This lunch should be the rare time for the three of them to eat together these days. Gu Xiyan, contrary to her usual quietness, made the two of them happy during the meal.
Gu Ye is a slave to his daughter. He laughed and joked to Xie Wan: "Our Yan'er has changed his sex today, and we are more active than before. How good it is, we are like a little girl."
Gu Xiyan just pursed her lips and smiled, but Xie Wan said angrily: "There is no such thing as a father, our Yan'er is fine."
"Yes, yes, Yan'er is fine anyway, I'm happier this way, haha."
After finishing the meal as usual, Gu Xiyan made tea for the two elders. She handed the tea to Xie Wan and Gu Ye with both hands, and then knelt down in front of them.
Xie Wan and Gu Ye were stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and pulled her: "Yan'er, what are you doing, get up quickly."
Gu Xiyan shook her head and didn't get up: "Father, mother, the Gu family's suffering this time is largely due to me. As a child, I failed to be filial, which caused you to give up the Gu family's property, and made you fearful. It is Yan'er who is not filial." It's my daughter's fault that I can't take care of you until you die, and let you white-haired people give away black-haired people.
Gu Ye was angry and angry at the same time: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you hurting your parents? I don't allow you to say that. Hurry up, get up!"
Xie Wan was also in distress: "You silly child, how can I blame you, how can you be unfilial."
Gu Xiyan said in a low voice: "I know that my parents love me, and I never feel that my daughter is a burden to you, but it is indeed because of me." Let's talk, she took a step back on her knees, and kowtowed to the two of them three times.
Xie Wan cried bitterly: "This child, what are you doing, knocking so hard. Okay, okay, get up quickly and show mother, it hurts."
Gu Ye was also very distressed: "You are our heart, don't you mean to make me and your mother feel bad?"
Gu Xiyan gritted her teeth tightly, and was able to hold back the pain and self-blame in her heart, and said with a forced smile: "It's my fault, this is the last time."
The family, who had eased their emotions, sat together again drinking tea and chatting. Gu Xiyan couldn't see the expressions on the faces of his parents, but he could feel their tenderness and happiness at the moment from the words.
When she came to this world, she never felt unlucky, and the people around her treated her very tenderly, which was enough.
This last silence will be broken after all, suddenly Ah Da led people into the yard quickly: "Master, Miss, many people outside surrounded Gu's house, all of them had long stick weapons in their hands, and they are now knocking on the door !"
Gu Ye's face turned pale, but Gu Xiyan was very calm: "Ada, lead someone to guard the door first, and let a pair of people quickly guard the side door, pack up the soft clothes, put on coarse clothes and go through the back door!"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Father, mother, hurry up!"
Gu Ye and Xie Wan hurried back to the house, because they had to be prepared. After a while, they took the package and left the room. Outside the house, Zhuo Lang had already taken the long stick and Ah Er Ah Sanhou.
Seeing them, he said in a deep voice, "Sir, hurry up, the carriage has already been called, and it will arrive soon."
"Okay, miss, you can pack it up."
"Miss is waiting at the side door."
The two rushed over in a hurry, but saw Gu Xiyan standing at the door in his original dress, and hurriedly said: "Yan'er, Ah Qi and the others didn't wait for you to change your clothes? Go, go."
Gu Xiyan nodded: "Okay, father and mother, you get on the carriage first."
Gu Ye and Xie Wan were helped by Ah Er Ah San into the carriage, and while they looked around vigilantly, they urged Gu Xiyan anxiously.
Gu Xiyan didn't move, but Ah Er and Ah San got into the car at the same time, holding down Gu Ye from left to right.Xie Wan was panicked at the moment.Turning around, I saw Gu Xiyan raised his hands, then bent down and bowed deeply: "Yan'er bid farewell to parents, Ah Er, please."
"Yan'er! What are you going to do? Ah, Yan'er!" Gu Ye's eyes were bloodshot, struggling to call Gu Xiyan's name.
The horse was whipped severely, the heart-piercing cries of Xie Wan and Gu Ye were dissipated in an instant, and the carriage turned into a small road along the alley and disappeared without a trace.Holding his sister in his arms, Zhuo Lang turned his head and took a deep look at Gu Xiyan, and followed quickly with red eyes.
Gu Xiyan's eyes were red, she raised her head and turned to the right, where there was a small alley winding and quiet.Standing where she was, apart from the red circles around her eyes, she could see her sadness, and there was nothing but indifference.
Turning around and returning to the mansion, Ah Qi Xiaowu and the others were already arranging for the remaining servants to leave Gu's mansion quickly. When they saw that Gu Xiyan hadn't left, they were stunned: "Miss, why are you still here!"
Gu Xiyan didn't say anything, but just stepped forward and handed them a kit: "Ah Qi, Xiao Wu, leave Danyang City with Ah Da and the others, and go to find father and mother according to the inside. There is no way to stay here, so hurry up Well, no matter how late it is, the side door will be blocked."
"Miss, what do you mean? You want to stay!" Ah Qi suddenly changed color, staring at Gu Xiyan.
"Ah Qi, I can't leave. You listen to me and leave quickly. If they come, you are all finished." Gu Xiyan frowned.
"Then... someone, someone set fire!" Xiao Wu pointed to the sky, horrified.There was already thick smoke in front of Gu's mansion, and it was impossible to break the door. Someone started setting fire to the house.
