MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 627 Qiuhua Mountain
After being reminded by the eldest aunt, the second aunt also remembered it.
It's just that she seldom asked about her husband's external affairs, so people remembered it, but they still didn't know anything about it.
The eldest aunt knows a little more about it than the second aunt, but she only knows one but not the other. It is probably because the eldest uncle of the Gu family is afraid that this matter will affect the reputation of Gu Jiajun, so he does not tell the outside world.
“It’s all in the past, so don’t mention it. I’m sure they won’t take the initiative to make trouble, so it’s good to know and don’t worry about it all the time.”
Du Jingyi said this, and the two aunts also thought it meant this, so they didn't ask any more questions. Instead, they were a little happy when they knew that Jin'er was going to help with the banquet this time.
The eldest aunt touched Jin'er's head and said encouragingly.
“Just go ahead and do it. If you have any questions you don’t understand, just ask. If you practice this for a few years, you will encounter similar things in the future and you will have regulations.”
“Jin’er knows, grandma, don’t worry.”
“Well, good boy.”
The eldest aunt looked at the granddaughter in front of her with a smile, just as the setting sun in the afternoon shone on her, the warmth was not dazzling, but made her radiant.
I couldn’t help but think of a lot of things that happened when I was young, and I just hoped that she would live a happy life in the future.
The news about Xiong Kuang's two families was secretly and quickly sent to Qiuhua Mountain.
The distance between the two places is not very far, so it was the morning of the next day when Liu Xun sent the message.
“Where is the general? I have something to report.”
Standing in front of Liu Xun was Zheng Deli. He was responsible for staying here to guard, just in case anything happened, he would go to respond. Therefore, when he saw Liu Xun coming, he wiped his beard and said.
"What's the matter? The general and the fourth lady went into the mountain yesterday and haven't come out since."
"so long?"
"Well, the general agreed with me that if there is no news about them within five days, I will go into the mountains to look for them."
Everyone has the ability to survive in the jungle, so five days is not too much.
The most powerful among them is Ni Yang. He once lived alone in the woods for more than a month without any serious problems, so Liu Xun and Zheng Deli were not worried.
“Madam was afraid that the Xiong Kuang family would do something evil, so she asked me to send a message so that the general could be prepared.”
"The Xiong Kuang family? Bah, they still have the nerve to do something dirty? If the uncle and the second uncle hadn't been merciful back then, they would have died long ago. If they really dared to come here, I, Lao Zheng, would be the first to kill them!"
Although Liu Xun didn't say anything, his meaning was the same as Zheng Deli's.
“Then I’ll go back and talk to my wife first, while you watch here.”
“Don’t take a break?”
“Where can I rest?”
After saying this, Liu Xun jumped onto his horse and galloped away. Zheng Deli couldn't help but shake his head and muttered.
"I'm not asking you, I'm asking if the horse needs a rest!" As soon as these words came out, they disappeared in the wind. The place where they camped was as calm as ever.
It’s another month when the sun sets and the sun rises.
This is already the third day that Gu Shaoyu and the others have entered the mountain, but their search has still yielded no results.
The fourth aunt's face didn't look very good either. The little bit of hope she had originally had no trace at this moment.
"Shao Yu, why don't we go back? Keep searching like this is not an option. The mountain is so big. We have searched for it before and after but still can't find it. Maybe I saw it wrong, or maybe the man is dead a long time ago." .”
The news she sent to Gu Shaoyu was that some broken armor from the Gu family army was found in a cave in Qiuhua Mountain.
The place where the Gu family died in the battle was ten miles away from here. Those who could run to this mountain from there might also survive.
So, even if the hope is slim, Gu Shaoyu still wants to look for it again, just in case...
Marquis Dingping would not say that for no reason, but after so many years, they had not thought about it in this direction at first, so even if there was any personal or physical evidence, it was long gone. It was not easy for them to survive at that time. For the soldiers who came down, Gu Shaoyu would not give up until he found them.
So, after taking a deep breath, he said to the fourth old lady.
"Fourth Aunt, please take the people out first, take a rest, and Zheng Deli and the others will come in. The same time limit is five days. We will continue to search. If we still can't find it, we will go back and bring in more people. That's it. Dig, and dig out the person who left the armor..."
"Confused, that armor looks like that of an ordinary soldier. Even if he is alive, he may not know much about what happened back then. If I had known you were so obsessed with it, I shouldn't have told you this news!"
The fourth aunt cursed angrily in her desperation, but Gu Shaoyu did not give up and spoke solemnly.
"More than twenty years have passed since this happened, but I have never forgotten it in my heart. Isn't it the same with my fourth aunt? If my grandfather and uncle were really killed by someone, how could I not avenge such a grudge? That's it. I will pursue this result throughout my life. If I die, then Brother Tai will continue to search until he finds out the truth!"
Looking at his determined expression, the fourth aunt felt very worried.
Of course she couldn't let it go, but what she was more afraid of was that Dingpinghou said this deliberately, just to trap Shaoyu's life. Finally, they could live a peaceful life. If they put their minds on this misty matter, , isn’t it desolate?
But it was useless to dissuade him now. After seeing him leave, the fourth aunt had nothing to say.
Ni Yang stepped forward, handed a spirit dog in his hand to the fourth old lady, and then said.
“Old madam, please go back first and ask Lao Zheng to come in and help you find it. Since the general has determined this matter, he will definitely not look back. We will definitely find it!”
"You're crazy, you're crazy. If I had known I would have never sent you this news. Why didn't you two listen to your advice?"
After saying that, he stamped his feet fiercely, feeling very anxious.
Seeing this, Li Zhu walked up to her, gave her a hand, and then said comfortingly.
"Master, let me send you back to rest first. You are getting old. This forest is very humid, so you don't want to stay long."
The fourth old lady is already in her fifties and almost sixty years old.
It's just that because of years of exercise, her body is healthy and strong, and she looks similar to a woman in her forties. But after all, her age is there, and the humidity is really unfriendly to her. So after hearing this, she I had no choice but to turn back.
"I can't control your affairs anymore. If he still refuses to give up in five days at most, you will knock him unconscious and bring him back. When the time comes, he will be tied up, and I will tie him back too!"
