My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 388: The Confinement Coffin

Seeing this, the Seventh Old Master actually looked at Du Jingyi seriously.

In the past, he saw her as a kind and smiling person, and thought that Shaoyu's daughter-in-law was just a woman who was easy to bear, but today it seemed a little different.

So, he didn't bother much, and said directly to Gu Shaoyu.

"In that case, let's talk about it quickly. After we have made it clear, we will go back and not delay Shaoyu from fulfilling his filial piety."

Du Jingyi has also seen some top-notch relatives, such as the Du Si family in her family, and the third and fifth rooms in the Duke's Mansion, but those people are just for more money, so they are easy to deal with.

But the Seventh Old Master in front of him is not short of money or power, so he never talks too much when confronting them. After seeing that Du Jingyi's twists and turns are difficult to explain, he immediately went around and talked about other things.

Such a skill, Du Jingyi dare not underestimate.

So she didn't say any more nonsense, and sat next to Gu Shaoyu, looking at these uncles, guessing their intentions.

"What does the seventh uncle want to discuss with me? Just say it directly."

Gu Shaoyu is also a person who doesn't like to talk nonsense. Instead of arguing with them here, he might as well go back to guard the spirit, or see the children.

Seeing him speak, the third old master jumped out. Although he was a little bit of an elder, he still understood the rules and asked.

"It is said that the eldest sister-in-law is gone, and this should be buried with the eldest brother, but when we asked someone to calculate the auspicious time for the burial of the eldest sister-in-law two days ago, the person said that the eldest brother's grave can no longer be opened, otherwise the feng shui of the Gu family will be ruined, so we chose another one next to him. Shaoyu will take a look at the drawings first. If it is suitable, we will rush to have someone dig it out in the next two days. Don't worry, the regulations will not change!"

The third old master is kind and considers the welfare of the whole family.

But this was not so pleasant to Gu Shaoyu's ears. What does it mean that they cannot be buried together?

So before he took the blueprint from the third old man, he glanced at it with a cold look and then spoke.

"When my grandmother was still alive, she said that she would be buried with my grandfather after a hundred years, and all the arrangements at home were in place. But now my third uncle has believed in some bullshit gentleman and is shouting that they cannot be buried together. Isn't this a slap in my face?"

"Shaoyu said this. Am I not thinking about the future of the descendants of the Gu family? At that time, the grave of my eldest brother was calculated by this gentleman. Look, isn't this branch thriving again now? Now he says that the grave of my eldest brother cannot be opened. Isn't it for your good?"

When the third old man said this, his eyes were full of sincerity. If you didn't know, you would think he was really such a kind person.

Instead, Du Jingyi, who was standing aside, asked a question when he saw this.

"Where is this gentleman? I want to ask him, since he was the one who chose the grave site of my grandfather, why didn't he say that the coffin cannot be opened again when it was put into the grave? Everyone knows that my grandparents had a deep love for each other, so they should be buried together after a hundred years. They didn't say it then, and now it's not allowed? What kind of rule is this?"

"I can't explain it to you, a woman, but Shaoyu, you are the head of the Gu family now, and you have the final say before Brother Tai grows up. If anything inappropriate happens because of this matter, don't say that your third uncle didn't warn you!"

The third old man said it, and even threatened.

Unfortunately, Gu Shaoyu didn't like this the most, and then he said

"I'm sorry to have caused you, Third Uncle, to worry about this. Grandfather and grandmother must be buried together in the same coffin. So no matter which gentleman says that it's not allowed, it's useless to me. The descendants of the Gu family must also remember that if it can be done, it's because of their own ability. If it can't be done, it's useless even if the ancestors are buried in the gold vein!"

This sentence made the Third Old Master speechless, and he could only leave a sentence in exasperation.

"Believe it or not, it's not my problem if something goes wrong!"

After saying this, he left. He was still a little worried when he came, but he became angry when he left, so that the servants of the Gu family didn't dare to say a word.

Seeing that the Third Old Master, one of the two backbones, had left, the others looked at the Seventh Old Master unconsciously.

But the Seventh Old Master was not as aggressive as the Third Old Master. Seeing that Young Master Gu's attitude was harder than stone, he didn't say anything more, and got up and left.

When he left, he didn't say a word, obviously he didn't want to argue with the couple.

The backbone left, and the others naturally dispersed.

After they left in a hurry, Gu Shaoyu asked.

"When you chose the auspicious time, did you hear that gentleman say that you can't bury them together?"

"No, everything is normal, so I don't know what this third uncle is doing?"

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu fell silent.

If they were determined and had something to hide, they should have persuaded them in various ways. Why did they leave after a few words?

But if this matter was dispensable, why did they have to wait so long and refused to leave?

Therefore, the actions of these old guys made the couple a little confused, but they were not people who would entangle. Now the most important thing is to bury their grandmother smoothly, and talk about other things later.

When the two returned to the mourning hall, the carriages outside the door also moved.

After the Seventh Old Master got on the carriage, he saw someone else inside, that was his eldest son Gu Yanguang, who looked at his father with a slightly complicated expression and asked.

"Father, does Shaoyu agree?"

The Seventh Old Master shook his head, much calmer than his son next to him.

"Then when the coffin is opened, if Shaoyu finds something fishy, ​​won't he investigate those things thoroughly? If we are implicated, won't it be troublesome?"

Gu Yanguang's words fell into the ears of the Seventh Old Master. Of course, he understood what his son was worried about, but only by not making a sound when facing a collapse of the mountain can one be invincible, and this obviously was not done by the eldest son.

So, he said with a serious face.

"Why are you panicking? He may not be able to detect it. Even if he detects it, he can't find out for a while. We have been operating in Jinling City for so many years. If we can't even deal with him, what big business can we plan? You too, you are so anxious about a little thing. How can your father hand over the burden of the family to you in the future?"

A few words made Gu Yanguang sober up a lot.

After taking a few deep breaths, he said to his father.
