455: Chapter 465: Preparing to Expose Lei Qianqian 455: Chapter 465: Preparing to Expose Lei Qianqian “Your answer is that everyone should be responsible for their own actions, and an endless cycle of revenge will never resolve the conflict.
Since the enemy has already t their retribution, we certainly shouldn’t continue to involve their family.
Otherwise, the hatred will pass down through generations without end!”
“This…” Gu Youyou stiffened.
She and Jin Zijin seed to have had such a conversation, but she thought his question was about his own affairs with Jin Ziyuan.
“So this is your own belief!” Jin Zijin said righteously.
Gu Youyou: “…” Okay then.
“Do you think they will turn themselves in?”
“They will!” Jin Zijin said.
“What makes you so sure?” Gu Youyou asked.
“Because of the Lin Family, they’re not afraid of Gu Youyou, they’re afraid that Gu Youyou, in a mont of desperation, might bring the Lin Family into this, and New Year’s is coming too.”
“Heh…” Gu Youyou suddenly laughed.
Yes, New Year’s is coming again, and the Lin Family will have visitors again.
…
Early in the morning, Jin Zijin and Gu Youyou went to buy incense and offerings to worship at the graves of Gu Feng and the elder Mrs.
Huang.
Both their graves were built together, and it was no longer clear which ca first; both were overgrown with weeds.
“Zijin, I want to speak alone with Grandpa and Grandma for a while.”
Jin Zijin nodded and withdrew to the hollow below.
Gu Youyou burned joss paper and spoke softly.
“Grandpa, will you be mad at for not visiting you sooner?
Heh, I know you were always partial to , and you surely won’t be.
You only wished for to live well.
Don’t worry, I’m doing very well.
My return this ti, first, is to offer you incense for peace, and second, I plan to send Uncle into prison as well.
I don’t know if you’d bla .”
Unable to receive a response, Gu Youyou could only give a bitter smile.
Looking at the grave next to her, Gu Youyou said, “Grandma, I know you didn’t like , but I’ll still avenge you.”
That was the only sentence she said to her.
As Jin Zijin had predicted, the next day Gu Youyou’s second uncle indeed went to confess, taking on all the responsibility very publicly.
He voluntarily admitted to the local authority that he had planned to sell Gu Youyou off, and then two n from the village took him bound to the Governor’s Office.
But he took all the bla alone, quickly exonerating Huang Xiangwen.
That was good in a way; it wouldn’t be fun without Huang Xiangwen.
Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin swaggered to the Gu Family ho, and Huang Xiangwen invited them inside, but she refused, simply sitting down in the courtyard of the Gu Family house instead.
The villagers were clinging to the wall outside the Gu Family courtyard, peering in through the cracks with one eye shut.
“What are they going to do?”
“Do you think Youyou was really taken by a human trafficker?”
“Of course not.
Didn’t you hear what Shunzi said?
She’s just been back to her old ho with Jin Zijin for over a year, and she often wrote letters asking the doctor at Jisheng Hall to take care of Shunzi and Erya.”
“Ah, then why didn’t they co back sooner?
It’s been so long before they returned.”
“Who knows, it’s other people’s business.”
Huang Xiangwen watched the two sitting in the courtyard with trembling fear.
Jin Zijin seed increasingly inscrutable.
Looking at the man before her, she couldn’t reconcile him with the scruffy hunter of the past.
Knowing that Gu Youyou was going to make trouble today, Huang Xiangwen had discussed with Gu Youyou’s second uncle the day before sending the children to her parental ho first.
Howbeit, as Gu Dabao was already grown, he wasn’t easily persuaded and refused to go.
With Dabao unwilling to leave, Lei Qianqian, too, stayed, taking the children with her, so in the end only Erbao and Sanya were sent away.
In the courtyard, Huang Xiangwen stood opposite Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin.
A little further back stood Gu Dabao, with a pained expression.
