Chapter 402: Encircling the Paddy Field

"Father, you mean the three thousand acres of paddy fields outside Qingshui Town?"

"Otherwise? Just watch, this is the next thing that Gu Shaoyu will be shocked by."

"How can I see it?"

Gu Yanguang asked stupidly, and the seventh old man also frowned slightly, looked at him with a bit of disgust in his eyes, and then spoke.

"Don't your people want to insert someone into Qingshui Town? Luo Yuan, the capable lieutenant beside Gu Shaoyu, has been wandering around Qingshui Town for more than ten days. Haven't you received any news yet?"

When he heard this, Gu Yanguang felt a little embarrassed.

Although Qingshui Town is also under his jurisdiction, his focus has always been on Jinling City, so naturally he will not think too much about it, so he still really doesn't know about it.

But when it comes to this, he naturally has to take a stand.

"Father, don't worry, my son will make arrangements tomorrow. The affairs of the third uncle's family have nothing to do with us. Those paddy fields are occupied by people in their family, and they also beat the other party to death. At most, we can help cover it up. So even if it really makes a fuss, I guess it’s just that.”

After hearing this, the seventh old man's expression did not get much better.

His life's ambitions, if given the right opportunity, I'm afraid his status today would not be any lower than that of Marshal Gu. But there is only one chance, and if you don't seize it, you don't seize it.

There are other ways he can go now, but his life is not long enough.

Otherwise, he would really not feel at ease if he was asked to let go and hand over the entire family to his three sons. He could not learn his calculations, his meticulousness, his fearlessness, or his intentions behind his back.

The three sons are like him, but not completely like him.

At least now, he hasn't seen anyone who is better than the old, let alone those grandchildren. They were all raised in Fugui Township and can't achieve anything big.

He thought Gu Shaoyu was good, but what he was doing now was destined to be in opposition to Gu Shaoyu for the rest of his life, so he wouldn't think about it any more.

"Okay, let's make arrangements."

"Yes, father."

After the eldest son of the Gu family exited the study, the seventh old man sighed, if only he was only thirty or forty years old now, then he must have a share of the world's soup!

After thinking of this, I could only feel deeply regretful. Not long after, I wrote a secret letter, and then gave the news to a hidden guard and quietly sent it to Sui'an City.

On New Year's Day, horses are galloping around, and the surroundings are lonely. Only the sound of the rattling sound echoes on the official road.

The hidden guard was extremely fast and very careful.

But no matter how careful he is, he is still not as good as Liu Xun, who has been trained for many years and can even plant spies in enemy countries.

Liu Xun was not only fast, but also very skilled. He followed him neither too close nor too far away, but never let him go.

He couldn't find the bones of Marshal Gu for a while, but it was easy to track an individual, and he saw that he was going to Sui'an City on this road. He wanted to see who the immortal behind these seven houses was?

A ray of dawn broke through the darkness.

When the sun filled Qiwu Courtyard, Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi gradually woke up. They hugged each other and welcomed the twenty-eighth year of Xiande together.

The first emperor passed away after only fourteen years in the throne. However, the current emperor was very lucky. He had lived in peace for twenty-eight years, which was twice as long as the first emperor.

Therefore, both of them were in a good mood early in the morning.

"What should you eat first for breakfast?"

"Let's steam the dumplings. I see that the general didn't use much last night. You might as well have some steamed dumplings of your choice."

Gu Shaoyu smiled, and then called someone in to help him wash up.

On the first day of the New Year, if they were in Sui'an City, they would naturally go to the Duke's Mansion to meet their father, Shang Yukuan. But now, they only need to take care of themselves and take the children to meet their father later. An aunt and uncle, that is.

Cherry brought water, and Du Jingyi went to wash up, and then put on an ice purple Baoxiang pattern long skirt, paired with a heron-colored bra, which matched the new year.

Gu Shaoyu cooperated with her and also wore a dark purple robe and brocade clothes.

After the two of them got dressed, they sat down and had breakfast.

What I ate was the steamed dumplings named by Du Jingyi, and the Danruo was not inferior at all. It was served in four small drawers, and the taste was different. There was mutton stuffing that Gu Shaoyu liked to eat, and shrimp stuffing that Du Jingyi liked to eat. The tastes of both of them were taken into consideration.

During the meal, the two of them had a rare moment of silence, but soon the voices of the children came from outside, especially the leader Tai Geer, who screamed happily.

This kid is smiling all day long, and I don’t know how happy he is.

"Let the wet nurse bring the children in."

"Yes, ma'am."

Starting today, Du Jingyi's title has been changed from Young Madam to Madam. After all, she is now the one who is in charge of the Gu family, just like the rule that after the new emperor ascends the throne, the title of the country must be changed in the second year.

Therefore, when Du Jingyi heard this title, he was not too surprised.

After turning over the New Year, Brother Tai will be one year older.

Although he still couldn't speak clearly, he walked much more steadily, and would even jog from time to time, and he basically never fell. Seeing his condition, his aunt and the others also praised him.

But Gu Shaoyu had already told Du Jingyi privately that when the spring weather got warmer, he would take Tai Ge'er to do some activities within his ability. As for what, Du Jingyi was not very clear, but he thought that he was the child's father after all, and he would not harm him.

Therefore, he agreed.

As soon as Tai Ge'er came in, he was very sweet and called out.

"Kiss."

As for whether he was calling his father or mother, it was unknown. In short, although he was young, he was a master of keeping things balanced. After pulling his parents and kissing each of them, he pointed to the three children behind and said.

"Brother, brother."

Seeing this, Du Jingyi smiled and kissed him and said.

"Does Tai Ge'er want to say that you and your brother came to pay our respects to us?"

Although Tai Ge'er could not speak clearly, he understood the meaning, so after seeing Du Jingyi's explanation, he smiled and nodded.

Du Jingyi touched his little head lovingly and said with relief.

"Our Tai Ge'er is really great."

Tai Ge'er seemed to know that he was great, and there was a little more pride on his chubby face.

As for the triplets' brothers, they are now half a year old. They opened their mouths and babbled, and followed their brother's dancing. The urgency of the movements almost made the wet nurses unable to hold them.

The third update is here. I came back late today, so I'm only posting the third update now. There will be a fourth update later. If possible, I will try to write more, so that everyone can see more content tomorrow morning~

Or I can quickly return to the time rhythm of updating in the early morning! Without further ado, I will continue to write~~
