Chapter 477: The Xin Family Has Been Raided
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong’s interest was piqued. “What rumor?”
“Eldest Young Master’s nanny is actually Old Master Xin’s woman. Her status is even higher than ordinary concubines. I heard that when Old Master was young, he went out to discuss business and brought this nanny along.”
Xue Rong said, “Although the nanny serves Eldest Young Master, she often enters and exits Old Master’s study with the excuse of reporting Eldest Young Master’s situation.”
Gu Yundong could not help but pause. This gossip was a little big.
“Is the nanny beautiful?”
Xue Rong was speechless. Wasn’t Miss’s focus a little off?
However, he still shook his head honestly. “She can’t compare to Master’s concubines.”
Gu Yundong pushed a cup of tea over. “Alright, I know what you’re talking about. Go back and take care of my father. I’m going out for a while.”
“Yes, my lady.”
Gu Yundong left the inn and returned not long after. His expression was obviously relaxed.
In the following days, she didn’t leave the inn much. She spent most of her time by Gu Dajiang’s side.
Seeing that his health was improving, the smile on Gu Yundong’s face became lighter.
When he recovered, they could go back.
Half a month later, Gu Dajiang could already go downstairs for a walk. Although it was still unnatural, it was a luxury for Gu Dajiang, who had been cooped up in his room for nearly a month.
Gu Yundong helped him down. Standing at the entrance of the inn, Gu Dajiang heaved a sigh of relief.
“In two days, let’s go to the Yu family to see Uncle Yu and the others.”
Ever since that day, Gu Yundong did not go to the Yu family again. Instead, she let Xue Rong make two trips and mentioned Gu Dajiang’s injury.
Grandpa Yu wanted to come over and take a look, but he was stopped by Xue Rong. It had not been peaceful recently. Gu Yundong had instructed him not to go out as long as possible, especially since this inn was very close to the Xin residence.
“Why do I feel that something is amiss?” Gu Dajiang suddenly said. “There are many people on the streets.”
Before Gu Yundong could say anything, the waiter beside him came over and nodded. “That’s right. For some reason, there have been a lot of people these past few days. Our inn’s business is doing well. I thought there was something happy to celebrate in the city, but I didn’t hear anything after asking around.” Gu Yundong laughed. “Something happy? A storm is coming.”
With that, she helped Gu Dajiang in and found a seat in the hall to eat.
The waiter touched his head and looked at the bright sun outside. “Where is the storm coming from? Why don’t I understand?
Xue Rong thought, if you understand, you can be the shopkeeper.
On the other hand, when Gu Dajiang heard Gu Yundong’s words, he asked curiously in a low voice, “Yundong, do you know something? What’s going to happen at Wanqing Prefecture?”
“Father will know the result in two days.”
However, there was no need to wait for two more days. The next morning, the waiter ran into the hall in a panic.
Gu Yundong was coming downstairs and saw that his clothes were wet and his hat was gone. Strands of hair were stuck to his face. He was panting and his face was filled with fear.
Moreover, at this moment, there was a loud rumble outside. A bolt of lightning struck down, accompanied by the patter of rain.
As expected, the atmosphere was already appropriate.
The waiter wiped his face and said in a trembling voice, “Shopkeeper, the prefecture magistrate has been arrested. The Xin residence has also been raided.”
