Mysterious Lord Gu’s Palm Treasure
Chapter 218 218 Good intentions
In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve is here. At the end of every year, the city begins to become prosperous and lively. People who go out to make a living return home, and people who have been busy working for a year also stop and enjoy the longest holiday of the year. Enjoy time with your family.
Every street in Haicheng is hung with red banners and silks to welcome the New Year, and jubilant red lanterns fill all the tree trunks on the street. The people walking on the street have also changed from white-collar workers in a hurry to peaceful ones. A happy family.
Although it is a freezing winter, it feels extraordinarily warm. Everyone has a smile on their face as they reunite with their families. This is the charm of the end of the year.
All schools have gone on winter vacation. Bai Xun got the grades of her classmates from Professor Xiao. They all did pretty well in the exams and he also had some insights into her prescription.
When she saw these results, she also felt a sense of teacher's relief.
Gu's house has been busy since a few days ago. Sweeping and dusting are the most essential tasks of the year. The hostess of the Gu family was originally responsible for taking care of these tasks with the servants, but this year Bai Xun became pregnant.
The old man felt sorry for her, so he didn't let her do anything. He was still busy with the housekeeper and his people. Anyway, he had been doing this for so many years and he was already familiar with it.
"Madam, the old man is looking for you." Yan Yi stood not far away and said.
Bai Xun nodded and put down the hot tea in his hand. Gu Jiu Sheng walked out of the room with a light-colored shawl in his hand.
"Are you done?" Bai Chun still let him cover his body with the shawl.
"Well, I'll go with you."
It shouldn't be an important matter for the old lady to find her at this time. He must also be asking about the New Year.
In the front hall of the house, the old man had a lot of melon seed snacks on hand. He didn't like eating them very much, but taking care of Bai Xun's pregnancy, she had a good appetite during this period. These were all things Bai Xun liked to eat.
The whole Gu residence is like this.
Along the way, red lanterns with the word "Fu" were hung under the corridor, which was full of festive feeling. The atmosphere of the New Year is highlighted by this color.
Gu Jiu Sheng walked over with Bai Xun in her arms, and the servants passing by said hello.
Seeing the two people coming over, the old man showed a beaming smile. When the housekeeper saw the old man like this, he also smiled.
Ever since he found out that Bai Xun was pregnant, the old man's mood has gotten better and better. Every time he sees Bai Xun, he always has a very happy smile on his face.
"Grandpa, are you looking for me?" Bai Chun looked at him and sat opposite the old man.
"Today is New Year's Eve. I forgot to ask you yesterday. I invited your mother over so that our family can have a good New Year." The old man said.
The old man originally planned to spend this New Year together. Since Bai Xun married Gu Jiu Sheng, they are a family. Then the Gu family should protect not only Bai Xun, but also the entire family including Bai Shanyuan. Bai family.
"Jiusheng has called her mother, but she is traveling abroad now and does not plan to come back for the New Year, so we don't have to worry about her," Bai Xun said.
Uncle Gan will also take some old guys from the company to have New Year's Eve dinner together today. They will not come to Gu's house anyway, so they will have to celebrate the New Year alone.
"That's it. Then you have to call her to wish her a happy new year. She is quite lonely abroad." The old man nodded.
"I know Grandpa."
Bai Shanyuan may have never gotten over the past, but Bai Xun is very happy to be able to live like this now. No matter what happened in the past, at least she is still willing to take a good look at the world now.
"There has been a lot of trouble within the company during this period. It's the end of the year. I don't need to say more about the rewards that should be given. However, some of them are also old people in the company after all, so don't be too harsh." The old man Looking at Gu Jiu Sheng said.
Some time ago, because Gu Jiu Sheng was injured and fell into a coma in country M, there was a lot of trouble within the company, and there were many people who wanted to take advantage of Gu Jiu Sheng's accident.
When Gu Qingjun came to the headquarters, he didn't just sit there, but he just wanted to see how these clowns performed in the mood of watching a good show.
Now that Gu Jiu Sheng has regained consciousness, those who harbor disloyal intentions have naturally been dealt with.
The man was busy warming tea for Bai Xun beside him. He looked up at the old man and said, "I will take care of it, don't worry."
As people grow older, they will always think of the past. No matter how domineering and majestic a person is, they will always become softer after the passage of time. If you are used to seeing big winds and waves, you hope that the people around you can take good care of yourself. of.
"Alas" the old man sighed. Ever since he handed over the Gu family to Gu Jiu Sheng, he knew exactly what his grandson was capable of.
"You are the head of the Gu family now. I can't say much about what you want to do, but you must remember one thing. Bai Xun is pregnant now. If you do more good deeds and turn violence into peace in everything, you will accumulate virtue for your child. ." The old man opened his mouth and said.
Bai Xun lowered her head and glanced at her still flat belly. She also deeply understood what the old man said.
In order to pray for Yanxi and ensure that the frail and sick child could survive, the Quan family would go to the temple every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to eat, pray, chant and copy Buddhist scriptures. In the eyes of some people who didn't understand, they were even ridiculed.
But that is indeed the most they can do for that child. Doing good deeds with an open heart will naturally bring good luck to the people around you. Even if these are just nothing, as elders, they will be willing to do it for their children.
Bai Xun now understands their feelings, especially after losing her first child and becoming pregnant again, she also understands better the feeling of being dedicated to the child.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to them." Gu Jiusheng rubbed her face.
"I understand." She smiled and nodded.
Even for her, Gu Jiu Sheng would not go too far, but after all, he had to manage the entire Gu family. No matter how he dealt with it, Bai Xun believed that he would handle it well.
The snake came from a distance. She had been wandering around for the past two days. It was the first time she could walk openly in the sun, so she stayed there for a longer time.
"Old Master, Ninth Master, Young Madam." Hui called out respectfully in Xiang Wen's tone.
Bai Xun saw her radiant face during this period. After staying at Gu's house for a few days, she went out and never came back. If it hadn't been for her contact last night, I'm afraid she wouldn't have come back.
"You are willing to come back, you girl." He snorted to the housekeeper.
He stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm sorry."
She had never realized that the world was so beautiful, so she came back a little late.
"Go, you don't mean to go out, come back early." The old man drove the three children away.
Hui followed Bai Xun to the gate. She had indeed played a little too much these days and did not give Bai Xun a message. She was indeed a little embarrassed when she received Bai Xun's call last night.
"Miss Bai, where are you taking me?" she asked curiously.
Bai Xun turned his head and glanced at her, "I'll take you to meet someone."
A person she had to meet, Bai Xun didn't know why she wanted to take Hui there with her. Maybe she had seen too much and wanted to stop something from the root cause.
Hui didn't ask any questions along the way. After all, she knew Master Jiu's temperament. It wasn't until they got into the car separately that she breathed a sigh of relief.
It is true that Master Jiu doesn't like women other than Bai Xun appearing in his own space. Otherwise, if she really stayed in the same space as Master Jiu, she would probably suffocate to death.
"Where have you been these days?" Chen Yi asked sitting in front of her.
For now, they can be considered acquaintances.
"Go out for a walk. This world is really dazzling. Why didn't I realize that this world is so bad before?" He squinted his chin and looked at the scenery passing by outside the window.
No wonder the elves who left their hometown never came back in the end. This is such a nostalgic place. How can people who have seen the prosperity be willing to return to silence.
"Don't be too selfless and forget your original promise." Chen Yi raised his eyebrows and reminded.
If Bai Xun hadn't made those promises, she wouldn't have helped Fei possess Xiang Wen's body, but she seemed to be becoming more and more out of line recently.
But she will never be an evildoer.
"Do you know who Miss Bai is taking me to see?" Hui looked at Chen Yi in confusion.
Chen Yi turned around and said nothing. He looked at the car that continued to move forward. He was almost going back. The future of Gu Jiu Sheng and Bai Xun was determined. He originally came here to bring Bai Xun back.
But now it seems that this matter is beyond the scope of his efforts.
The car quickly arrived at its destination. Gu Jiusheng helped Bai Xun get out of the car. Looking at the house in front of him, Hui became more and more confused.
"here it is?"
"My home." Bai Chun glanced at the servant who came to open the door.
At this time, the couplets on the door have also been replaced with new ones. The bright red color is very eye-catching. I am afraid that the last wave of servants will go home to celebrate the New Year after cleaning.
"Miss." The servant who opened the door was a little surprised.
Yesterday, Uncle Gan said that Bai Xun would celebrate the New Year at Guzhai today. If he wasn't coming back, why did he suddenly come out?
"What's wrong?" Bai Xun asked, looking at the servant whose eyes were a little evasive.
The servant sighed, "Master Bai Xu is back. He also brought Miss Lu with him. He said he was coming back for a visit. He is sitting in the living room now. I was planning to call you."
After all, Bai Xu's request still needs to be approved by his wife. However, Bai Shanyuan made several calls but couldn't get through. She must have gone to a place where the signal is not very good.
Just as she was worrying about how to solve the problem, Bai Xun came back.
Bai Xun glanced at Gu Jiu Sheng beside him. Today was New Year's Eve. Bai Xu came back, probably to meet Nian Wenying who was locked up in the back house.
"I understand. After you pack up, you can go home to celebrate the New Year." Bai Xun ordered.
Confused, Hui followed a few people through the door. Although she didn't know what Bai Xun was going to do, she could faintly feel that there seemed to be a power similar to hers in this place.
Bai Xu and Lu Nian were sitting in the living room. He looked around the place. He used to live in a newly built villa. He had never taken a good look at this abandoned back house. It turned out that this was what it looked like when it was sorted out.
There are no flashy decorative chandeliers, nor is there anything overly gorgeous. It seems that living in such a place is worthy of the name of a medical family.
It's funny that he didn't notice it before.
"Bai Xu, what are you thinking about?" Lu Nian looked at him curiously.
"It's nothing." Bai Xu shook his head with a forced smile on his lips.
Originally, Bai Xu didn't plan to bring her here today. If she hadn't been so persistent in getting here in advance, Bai Xu wouldn't have sat here waiting with her.
I heard that Nian Wenying was not handed over to the police station by Bai Shanyuan. Her health was getting worse and worse, and she was paralyzed in bed unable to move. Bai Jianhe paid the price, and Nian Wenying was also left in the Bai family. The place where I have lived for half my life.
Before she came, her mother also advised her whether she really wanted to come.
She didn't want Bai Xu to face it alone, and always wanted to be able to accompany him, at least when he felt sad, there would be someone beside him to rely on.
"Bai Xu."
Seeing the group of people walking in, Bai Xu stood up, with mixed feelings in his heart. When he returned to this place again, things had changed.
"Master Jiu." Bai Xu nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Xun, and said hello.
When Lu Nian saw Bai Xun, he resisted the urge to rush over and sat calmly on the sofa.
"Don't be so restrained, sit down." Bai Chun stretched out his hand.
Gu Jiu Sheng sat aside with Bai Xun on her arm and glanced at Bai Xu. He had a calmer aura than before.
He is no longer as arrogant and unruly as a young man.
"I want to meet her." Bai Xu looked at Bai Xun and put forward the purpose of his trip.
"I thought you wouldn't care anymore." Bai Xun whispered.
There was a wry smile on Bai Xu's lips. How could he not care? After all, she was the one who raised him and truly loved him. No matter what wrong things she had done, her sincerity towards him was never fake.
Bai Xun turned his head and looked at Gu Jiu Sheng, "Wait for me here. Don't you have work to deal with?"
Knowing what she meant, the man did not object and sat down obediently to wait.
"Be good." Bai Chun touched his face.
The man raised his eyebrows, held her fingertips and kissed her, "Yeah."
"You also stay." Bai Xu said to Lu Nian.
The little girl glanced at the man sitting opposite and shook her head hastily, "No, I want to follow you."
It would be too scary for her to be in the same room with Gu Jiu Sheng. If she didn't want it, she would be scared to death, okay?
"Be obedient." Bai Xu patted her hand.
Knowing that he was determined not to take her there, Lu Nian lowered his head and sat still, trying hard to reduce his presence.
Nian Wenying was imprisoned in the basement of the old house. She lived a good life and never lacked three meals a day. However, her hands and feet were tied and she was not allowed to come out for life. She lost her freedom, but she was still alive.
"go in."
Through a transparent glass, Bai Xun saw Nian Wenying sitting on a recliner in the dim room. She had white hair and looked as if she had aged by dozens of years.
She also looked a little stupid. Maybe the death of her son was a big blow to her.
Bai Xu slowly walked in and opened the door, bringing a ray of light from the corridor that dazzled her eyes. The old man squinted before he could see the person who came in clearly.
"Xuxu'er?" Her voice was hoarse.
Bai Xu stood at the door with his head drooped, trying hard to suppress a smile from his face, but he still couldn't. He still remembers the old man who held him tenderly and cared for him, but he didn't expect that behind the kind mask , hiding a hideous face.
"Xu'er. Xu'er." As she pounced towards him, Bai Xu discovered the chain wrapped around her feet.
He took two steps forward and supported Nian Wenying who rushed over, "Grandma."
This was the first time he saw Nian Wenying since Bai Jianhe's funeral. He didn't expect that she would have aged so much.
"Grandson, my grandson is you who came to see grandma, right?" Nian Wenying caressed his face, and tears fell one by one from his old face, "Grandma can still see you. ,very nice."
It was a heartwarming scene of the reunion between the grandson and the grandson. Separated by a piece of glass, Hui and Bai Chun had different expressions.
"Is she the person you said you wanted me to see?"
From the moment she stepped into this place, she felt the vague power, which, like her, did not belong to this place.
Bai Xun looked at Nian Wenying who was hugging Bai Xu. It turned out that no matter how sinful a person was, he still had a trace of tenderness for his own blood, but gave all his cruelty to others.
"Yes, she is Bai Xu's grandma. You should have collected some information about us after arriving in Haicheng. You should also know more about the Bai family."
Hui nodded. The story of Bai Shanyuan and Bai Jianhe is no secret in the entire Haicheng. Especially after Bai Xun married Gu Jiu Sheng, this information became even more unreserved and anyone can check it anytime and anywhere. .
"Is she also a mountain elf?" Hui asked his doubts.
The person Bai Xun wanted her to meet was Nian Wenying.
"Yes, she was once an elf just like you, but she was blinded by profit and did all the things you saw." Bai Xun spoke in a shallow tone, telling other people's stories.
Even if Nian Wenying was different from the snake from the beginning, she was an evil spirit that had been contaminated by the darkness of the world. When she got here, she violated these laws and hurt so many people.
This is a warning to today's tigers.
"You want to tell me not to be like her?" Hui revealed Bai Chun's purpose.
"I don't know if this is unnecessary. I am the one who sent you here. What is different from the people here is the purity in your heart. But this world is too flashy. I don't know how many people have been changed by these things. She is an example of the original intention. I hope that in the future you can retain the same original intention as now."
Hui lowered his head, it was indeed Bai Xun's help that allowed her to stay in this world. She saw clearly the tragedy of the Bai family, and what Nian Wenying had done to the entire Bai family for her own selfish gain.
Bai Shanyuan, Bai Xun, and even the late Mr. Bai, none of the Bai family members have been tortured.
Especially the person involved, Bai Xun, probably has vivid memories of those painful experiences, so he doesn't want a second tragedy to happen.
"It's not that I don't trust you, but compared to these ordinary people, you have a more pure mind, but it's also very easy to be dyed into other colors."
"Is it my true intention?" Hui murmured in a low voice.
Her original intention was Mr. Ning, but now, she herself was a little unsure.
"No matter how good your intentions are, I don't want you to build on other people's pain."
She had seen what kind of things Hui had done to protect Ning Yu. She would go to such lengths to protect the person she wanted to protect. This kind of courage was commendable, but it could not be an excuse for her to hurt others.
Hui thought of her attack on Bai Xun when she was in country M. Maybe it was from that incident that Bai Xun vaguely saw something different.
This is an advice to her and a responsibility to herself.
"I understand, and I will take this as a warning in the future. No matter how many years I wander in this world, I will never be blinded by resentment, nor will I do anything to hurt others."
This was her original choice and she will not regret it.
Bai Xun looked at the two people inside. Bai Xu felt at least no more comfortable than before.
"Let's go." She turned around and left the basement with Hui.
Bai Xu stood in front of Nian Wenying, looking at the old lady sitting on the recliner with disbelief.
"what did you say?"
There really isn't anything wrong with his ears.
He heard clearly what Wenying said just now, but he still didn't want to believe it.
"You and that girl from the Lu family are your best chance. As long as you can successfully become the son-in-law of the Lu family, once Lu Jinxiao dies, the entire Lu family will be yours. My child, this is your chance to stand up, and it is also the only one that can save me. Opportunity." Nian Wenying was almost crazy.
"Bai Xun locked me up with this chain. I can't use any strength. Like ordinary old people, I can only wait for death in this dark place. Can you bear to see grandma like this?" Nian Wenying said over and over again. He said, "I live a long life, longer than them. Grandma will definitely be alive until you take me out. By then, that dead girl Bai Shanyuan will definitely die!"
She can no longer stay in this dark place. God will not kill her. Even if her son dies, she will still have her grandson. As long as Bai Xu is still there, she will still have hope.
Besides, the Lu family, this is an opportunity given by God, and it is destined to make her stand up.
"Grandma, haven't you regretted it yet? Don't you regret it at all?"
Bai Xu turned around. On the top of the wall behind him were photos of Bai Yuanpei and Bai Jianhe. The people on them still smiled kindly, but they would never come back.
Bai Shanyuan posted this because she wanted her to repent in front of these two photos day and night, but it seemed that she had no remorse.
"Regret? People who don't do it for themselves will be punished by heaven and earth. Those who lost in my hands are because they are stupid and have no ability. What do you blame me for!" Nian Wenying said fiercely.
"If they were smarter, they wouldn't be like this. Whether it was Bai Yuanpei or Bai Shanyuan, they were both stupid. If it weren't for Bai Xun, nothing would have changed. She owed me! After all, I have to Give me the words!!”
Her mind was twisted beyond recovery.
Bai Xu suddenly felt that he might have come in the wrong place this time, but seeing the elder who had loved him since childhood become like this, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Grandma, I am different from my father. I will not obey you against my will and hurt the people I love." Bai Xu clenched his fists.
In fact, he thought that if Bai Jianhe had not obeyed Nian Wenying so unconditionally, maybe everything would have changed, and he and Bai Shanyuan might have been able to have a happier life.
All the past that has been staggered can also have a happy ending.
"Grandma, you are wrong, you have been wrong from the beginning." Bai Xu cried and laughed in a low voice, "Maybe Mr. Bai really liked you, and you abandoned that relationship. Do you really have no regrets? ?”
Nian Wenying was stunned for a moment, as if she was trapped in past emotions.
"Forget it, I guess you don't want to understand. Since you can't be happy like this and it will make you suffer even more if I look away, just keep hating me like this."
Bai Xu walked to the door, "Today is New Year's Eve, and tomorrow is a new year, a new beginning. In the coming year, I hope you can."
Those words of blessing seemed to be impossible to say.
After Bai Xu closed the door, he heard the screams coming from inside the house, which were heartbreaking and filled with heart-wrenching despair.
Gu Jiu Sheng and Bai Xun were waiting at the door. When Bai Xu came out, he saw Lu Nian who was talking to Bai Xun. As soon as the little girl saw him coming out, she jumped over and threw herself into his arms.
God knows that when she was sitting with Gu Jiu Sheng just now, she almost suffocated and forgot.
"I haven't had time to congratulate you on your pregnancy." Bai Xu led Lu Nian and spoke.
"Thank you." Bai Xun took out a red invitation from his bag, "I hope you can attend our wedding."
Bai Xu looked at the gold-plated wedding invitation and reached out to take it, "I will go. Today is the last day of the year. I wish you a happy New Year."
"Happy New Year." Bai Xun nodded.
Bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, this year has finally passed.
At twelve o'clock at night, the entire sea city burst into brilliant fireworks, rendering the dark night sky faintly glowing.
Bai Xun lit the fireworks placed in the middle of the yard, and was protected by Gu Jiusheng and hid under the corridor. She looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky. She looked up at the rising fireworks. Xiaobai squatted behind them. Sitting on the cushioned chair, he glanced lazily into the air.
The man stood behind her, holding her hands and covering her ears. Looking up, Bai Xun saw the gorgeous light and shadow flashing on his handsome face, softening the ends of his eyes.
The old man and Butler Xiang looked at the lively courtyard happily. The Gu family had not been so lively for a long time. Last year, listening to the sound of fireworks exploding, the old man just played a game of chess with Gu Jiu Sheng in the yard.
Maybe next year, there will be a spitting and screaming baby in this yard.
Chen Yi and Jia Yan sat on the roof side by side with their knees bent. Time passed so fast. Before they knew it, such a long time had passed.
Time flies so fast, these two days have come to an end.
