"Taiping, don't be rude."
As soon as Liu Chengping finished speaking, Fang Qing walked out of the kitchen. She scolded and said, "Come over and eat quickly. After you finish eating, ask your brother to take you to school. You have to take the exam today."
"Exam, exam, when will the exam end!" Liu Chengping sighed, his shoulders suddenly slumped, and he looked hopeless.
These days, final exams are taking place in high school. As a senior in high school, Liu Chengping feels that he is going to die on the exam paper.
Gu Yao pursed his lips and smiled: "It will be over in half a year. Go and eat quickly, we will take you to school in a while."
"——Ah, so annoying!"
Liu Chengping scratched his head irritably, walked to the dining room, and buried his head in his rice bowl resignedly.
After breakfast, Gu Yao found a set of unworn clothes for Mu Tongguang to put on, and made him less unconventional, and the old man and the young man went out.
Gu Chuqing sent Liu Chengping to school first, and then sent Mu Tongguang to a barber shop.
Although Mu Tongguang is an ancient man, he is not pedantic. The idea that his body, hair, and skin are influenced by his parents is not very strong in him. I heard from Gu Chuqing that he is a bit out of place with long hair, which will attract other people's attention, and his toilet is clean.
He cut his hair neatly. But the barber who cut his hair sighed with regret.
Mu Tongguang, who has a cropped haircut, looks a bit colder and tougher than when he had long hair. He has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a straight back, and a steady and steady walk, giving him an inexplicable tough-guy temperament.
After leaving the barber shop, Gu Chuqing hurriedly took Mu Tongguang to the optical shop and bought ten pairs of contact lenses for Mu Tongguang in one go.
There are so many middle school boys these days. Although Mu Tongguang’s red eyes are strange, everyone has seen them before. A few days ago, there was an animation cosplay at the Animation City in Jie City. A group of boys and girls dressed like monsters.
It seems that everyone is not surprised when he walks through the market with a swagger.
Therefore, when Mu Tongguang walked into the optical shop with a pair of eyes that everyone in the Yin and Yang world was afraid of, he didn't attract many strange looks.
...
After leaving the optical shop, Mu Tongguang looked brand new from head to toe. As long as he didn't seek death by approaching his peers at close range, no one would be suspicious of him.
After disguising their ancestors, Gu Chuqing and Gu Yao started looking for a house near the city center.
In big cities, it is not difficult to rent a house. As long as you have money, you can rent any kind of house. That is to say, the brother and sister are both students now, and money is a bit tight. Otherwise, according to Gu Yao's previous plan, he would have to rent a house.
Buying a house in Qiu City.
After all, he is the adopted son of the Liu family. Even if he is in poor health and needs Fang Qing to take care of him nearby, he cannot live in the Liu family forever. When he gets better, he will move out of the Liu family.
Although the Gu brothers and sisters were not rich, they still had enough money to rent a house. After being introduced by an agency, the two rented a single apartment not far from Gu Yao's home and temporarily accommodated Mu Tongguang.
Mu Tongguang saw the brother and sister's money flowing out for him... Gu Chuqing would even bargain with others for dozens of dollars, a look of sadness flashed in his eyes.
A hundred years ago, when did the Gu family worry about money? But a hundred years later...
These two little ones had no elders to protect them, so they had to rely on themselves for everything. I don’t know how they grew up.
A trace of sadness flashed across Mu Tongguang's eyes.
He is the only elder left in the Gu family now. He cannot hand over his life casually. He has to find a way to improve the lives of their brothers and sisters. Not to mention how much, at least let them get married and start a business, and live a worry-free life.
....In this way, even if he dies one day, he will be able to leave peacefully.
The single apartment was fully furnished and you could move in with your bag. There was nothing to pack. After paying three months' rent and getting the key, Gu Chuqing took Gu Yao and Mu Tongguang and rushed to Uncle Fan's house.
After getting in the car, Mu Tongguang sat quietly in the passenger seat, wondering what he was thinking.
When he was about to reach Hongyang Road, he took something off his chest and said in a deep voice: "Chu Qing, take this and sell it."
Hearing this, Gu Chuqing turned her head and looked at the things in Mu Tongguang's hand: "Sell? Why sell?"
Mu Tongguang twitched the corners of his slightly stiff mouth: "This is something I have always worn before. It is considered an antique and should be worth some money. You can sell it to make your money easier."
This jade was a health-preserving jade given to him by his adoptive father when he first entered the Gu family more than three hundred years ago. He has always cherished it, and later even became a zombie and was reluctant to take it off. This jade was left to him by his adoptive father.
My only thought was that my adoptive father also wanted to cultivate himself, but in the end he failed and entered reincarnation.
Gu Chuqing blinked: "......Ancestor, I am not short of money."
Ancient jade!
The ancestor is still a rich man!
"Take it, you are a girl, put more of it on yourself to be prepared." Mu Tongguang did not give the jade to Gu Yao, but gave it to Gu Chuqing.
The Gu family had never raised girls, but Mu Tongguang had seen how other families raised girls. Those wealthy families began to accumulate property for their girls when they were just born, so that they could have family property with them.
His daughter from the Gu family is no worse than other families. Even if she is in decline, she still has him as an elder, so he has to save for her...
As for Gu Yao, the head of the family, no matter how incompetent he is, he will not starve to death.
Gu Chuqing couldn't laugh or cry: "...I'm really not short of money."
She can make money on her own, and her life is really not tight. How did the ancestors figure out that she was short of money and spent it.
Gu Yao turned his head and said with a smile: "You can accept my ancestor's wishes."
Gu Chuqing: "......Okay then, I'll keep it safe for my ancestor first."
Mu Tongguang: "Sell it for money."
"....!!!" Gu Chuqing said: "Okay, I will sell it when I have time later."
Hearing Gu Chuqing's promise, Mu Tongguang nodded with satisfaction: "I'll get something for you later. You can save it and exchange it when you're short of money."
Antiques in prosperous times are gold in troubled times. This sentence is applicable no matter which dynasty. Now that the world is at peace, it can be said to be the most prosperous and prosperous age since ancient times. Antiques must be valuable... take out a few things, and my own
With two little ones, they won't have such a hard life.
...Well, Patriarch Mu is also very defensive and very thoughtful.
During the conversation, the car drove into the community where Uncle Fan lived. Gu Chuqing parked the car in the garage, and as soon as she got out of the car, the phone rang.
The caller was Ji Hongxiu: "Hey, where are you? Tian Hao asked for your address and said he would send the car to you."
Ji's house is bustling now. Tian Hao and a group of young people visited Ji's house and asked curious questions.
After what happened at Baozhushan Cemetery that night, the story of Ji Er's ghost sighting had spread in the circle. Everyone was surprised and scared. So, they made an appointment and went to Ji's house to see the strange thing.
In particular, Tian Hao also said that Mr. Ji's Plants vs. Zombies actually defeated the zombies in the end. A group of people was even more surprised. They all wanted to ask Mr. Ji what the zombies looked like.
Gu Chuqing was a little confused: "What car?"
Ji Hongxiu: "The car I won in the gambling that night, plus five million."
Liu Bi was frightened that night and was completely embarrassed in the circle. Tian Hao made a fuss and went to Liu Bi's gold selling den the next day to ask for a bet.
Liu Bi was a coward and didn't dare to deny his credit, so he could only bear the pain and let Tian Hao drag his "beloved wife" away.
After winning the bet, Hao couldn't find Gu Chuqing, so he had to find Ji Hongxiu.
Gu Chuqing was surprised: "It's just a joke, but it's serious..."
"Once the gambling starts, of course you have to take it seriously. If you don't take it seriously, who the hell is going to play with him!" Ji Hongxiu blew out a smoke ring: "Give me your address, and Tian Hao will send you a car later."
After speaking, Ji Hongxiu asked again: "How do you want to arrange the five million? Do you want Tian Hao to handle it directly, or do you handle it yourself?"
Having spent some time with Gu Chuqing, Ji Hongxiu knew that Gu Chuqing didn't accept money, and he didn't know if she wanted to win the bet.
Gu Chuqing didn't hesitate at all: "Let him handle it and donate it wherever it is needed."
Ji Hongxiu shrugged: "Okay, I'll tell him. Where's the address..."
Hearing this, Gu Chuqing thought about it and said, "Let him take the car to Jiachen Apartment in the city center tonight. When he arrives, just ask him to call me."
It just so happened that Gu Yao still needed a car. When he got better and took the driver's license exam, he would have a ready-made car to drive.
Ji Hongxiu said "hmm" to indicate that he understood.
After getting down to business, Ji Hongxiu lazily leaned back on the sofa and asked casually: "My friend wants to ask you how many talismans you want. Can you give them to me?"
He said this on behalf of the group of people in the family who were asking questions. Most of them came here today because they wanted Gu Chuqing's talisman.
But as far as he knew, Gu Chuqing did not give talismans to others at will.
He and Tian Hao were able to get the talisman from her because they encountered evil. Gu Chuqing, an ordinary person, would not give talismans. He had stayed in Guyu Town for half a month, and none of his neighbors in the town had talismans from the Gu family.
Gu Chuqing did not refuse, but she also did not agree: "Let's talk about it later, I'm not free recently."
Talismans can only have a bonus effect, such as sleeping talismans...
People who wear sleeping charms may not be able to sleep, but as long as they fall asleep, the quality of sleep will be better than without wearing it.
The same goes for the Peace Talisman.
Wearing the Peace Talisman does not necessarily mean you will be safe. But when encountering any major disaster, the Peace Talisman can help the wearer to alleviate it a little. Heaven has its own laws. Although the Peace Talisman can provide refuge for people, it can only be avoided once.
But it cannot be avoided in this life. Even if the big disaster disappears, small disasters will also happen.
Therefore, it is better to pay more attention to yourself when using talismans to avoid mistakes.
Ji Hongxiu shrugged, stood up from the sofa, and stretched his muscles.
He glanced over, and out of the corner of his eye fell on another old man who was making tea with Mr. Ji in the garden. As if he thought of something, he narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice and said, "Chu Qing, please be careful these days."
The old man's surname was Zhou, and he came from the capital. And he was able to find the ancient family because he knew about it from his mouth.
This week, the Taoist priest came to Ji's house yesterday evening. He said he was here to take care of some things. He stopped by Ji's house to see if he could still see ghosts in his eyes.
Gu Chuqing looked slightly stunned: "What happened?"
