Chapter 153: Gu Family's Youngest Daughter is a Suspected Time Traveler
Lu Yu was not angry. She herself was not a saint, so naturally she would not ask others to be saints.
Old Madam Gu said that she was not involved, but she knew that if there was a crime to be committed, it would be the crime of knowing about the incident and not reporting it.
She is a family-oriented person. She chooses to remain silent when her own interests are not affected. Although it is immoral, it is understandable because most people would make this choice.
Human beings are very selfish. People like Madam Gu are everywhere. They are not just a few, but the most ordinary group of people.
You can't kill such people with one blow, so you can only protect your own interests.
When what the person is hiding has nothing to do with themselves, most people will just watch the fun, say a few words of condemnation, and not do anything big.
However, there are some people with an overwhelming sense of justice who will stand up and even sacrifice their own relatives for the sake of justice, but such people are very rare.
The temperament of land fish is at two extremes, with no middle ground.
Either hate or love, nothing else matters.
As for what Madam Gu did, she didn't take it to heart, because compared to the malice in her previous life, what she did really didn't arouse any hatred in her, nor would she have any good feelings towards her either.
Being able to sit down and talk is just a matter of mutual exploitation.
"Madam, can you tell me why you want to go against the Gu family?"
Lu Yu was very curious. This old lady Gu had been protecting Wuwang and the Gu family for decades, but now she was suddenly going against the Gu family. Something must have happened.
When this issue was mentioned, both Madam Gu and Gu Hong looked sad.
The atmosphere became quiet. Lu Yu did not urge anyone and took a sip of the boiled water without a single tea leaf in it.
After a while, Madam Gu spoke hoarsely, "I have an old daughter who is as cute as ice and snow. When my other sons are too busy to even talk to me, she stays with me every day."
"She was well-behaved, obedient, and kind-hearted. She used her New Year's money to help the poor."
"She also teaches the young children in the servants' homes to read. She treats everyone equally."
"But her actions also caused dissatisfaction among some people in the Gu family. They thought she was willing to be lowly and actually associated with lowly slaves."
"She was punished by her grandmother to kneel in the ancestral hall, scolded by her father, treated coldly by her eldest brother, looked down upon by her eldest sister-in-law, and ignored by her second brother."
"Even after being treated like this, she still hasn't changed at all."
"She often said that everyone should be equal, no matter if they are rich, powerful, slaves, or commoners, they all bleed red blood, so where does the distinction between high and low come from?"
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, thinking that the youngest daughter of the Gu family was probably a time traveler.
Madam Gu continued, "At first glance, her words sound extremely treasonous, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense."
"But no matter how reasonable it is, in this world where aristocratic families are rampant and the powerful are in power, such words are provocative and belittle those who think they are noble."
"Among these noble people are her father, grandmother, eldest brother, second brother and eldest sister-in-law."
“So when Wuwang said he needed luck and praised his youngest daughter for her good luck, these beasts offered her up without hesitation.”
As she spoke, she began to sob, and Gu Hong's eyes also turned red.
A guess crossed Lu Yu's mind. She looked at the list in her hand again. Could it be possible...
Are all these people whose luck has been taken away time travelers or reborn people?
After all, if Wuwang really wanted good luck, there were plenty of people like him in this world, but he just took away the luck of the girl from the Gu family.
Aren’t you afraid that the Gu family will turn against you?
Although Old Madam Gu said that it was her family who offered her daughter away, if Wuwang had not deliberately said that she was lucky, even if the Gu family hated that girl, they would not have done such a cruel thing!
The sky outside was bright, the sun broke through the clouds, and the heat was rising.
The sound of suppressed crying was heard in the house at first, then it turned into wailing, and finally slowly turned into sobbing.
Madam Gu wiped her tears and looked at Lu Yu with swollen eyes, "Miss Lu, I have an irreconcilable feud with Wuwang. Please believe me, Miss Lu."
"My only wish in this life is to watch Wuwang die with my own eyes."
Lu Yu nodded, stood up and walked out, "Madam, please clean up!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Gu's face lit up with joy and she immediately went into the room to clean up.
Lu Yu came out of the door and looked at the sky, feeling a little uneasy. Why hasn’t Ba Ge come back yet?
Ba Ge, who was worried about by Lu Yu, was now hiding in the corner and shivering.
The monk had set up a huge trap in the entire palace, and no one could enter but could leave.
That’s fine, at most you just have to wait a little longer and follow others when they go out.
But the problem was that the incessant screams scared Ba Ge's little heart so much that it almost stopped beating.
The devil Wuwang actually sucked away the luck of everyone in the palace who was not one of his own.
It is said to make up for the lost national fortune.
Everyone whose luck was extracted died tragically on the spot, emitting shrill screams.
"Don't arrest me, please let me go."
A palace maid who was hiding was found and dragged out.
The pigeon shrank its body and buried its head in its wings. It was no longer afraid because no one could see it.
Here, Lu Yu brought Gu Hong, Old Madam Gu and a secret guard into the valley.
As soon as she entered the valley, she was greeted by her subordinates' whispered reminder, "Miss, the Duke knew you were out and was very angry."
Lu Yu nodded to show that he understood.
She brought the mother and son from the Gu family to see Lu Jingmo. Seeing that there were outsiders present, Lu Jingmo did not embarrass Lu Yu. He talked with Old Madam Gu for a while and then asked someone to take them away to settle down first.
then……
Lu Yu lowered his head and listened obediently.
"We all know that Wuwang's strength is unfathomable. If you run away like this, how will you escape if you run into him?"
Lu Jingmo's injuries had not yet healed. He leaned on the makeshift bed, without even looking at Lu Yu, and spoke with a serious expression.
"Xiao Yu'er, think twice before you do anything. You are not alone now. You still have Hou Qiancheng."
"If something happens to you, what do you think will happen to Houqian City?"
Lu Yu said nothing, just looked down at his toes.
"Without the city master's control, Houqian City will become a mess, and eventually chaos will break out, followed by disintegration. After that, the inside and outside will unite and be completely divided up."
He turned his gaze to Lu Yu, "Do you want this to happen?"
Lu Yu shook her head. In fact, she was not too worried. The current manager of Houqian City was Lin Rufeng. Because it was Lin Rufeng, all the members of the Lin family were also helping to maintain order.
The Lin family are gangsters with a certain status, and other gangsters follow their lead.
