Chapter 215 Cuckold Crisis
When Gu Xingtao found Chang Ningchen, she immediately took out a book and said to him, "Aunt, my father is teaching me my lessons."
Chang Ningchen put the things on the table and asked curiously: "Ah? Oh, why are you guys so nice all of a sudden?"
Gu Xingtao immediately ran to Chang Ningchen's arms and said coquettishly: "In fact, my father is handsome, knowledgeable, and Gu Cheng's marshal. He is the best among Gu Cheng's men!"
Chang Ningchen frowned and looked at Gu Xingtao. Did Dongfang He get some medicine from the system for him to take? Why did he start praising Dongfang He today?
Dongfang He immediately came over and said with a smile: "Taotao is very smart. She is the most well-behaved and sensible child I have ever met."
"you sure?"
After hearing what the man said, Chang Ningchen couldn't help but think of the kick Gu Xingtao gave Dongfang He the day before yesterday, and the bite Gu Xingtao gave Dongfang He the day before yesterday, and also the time yesterday when Gu Xingtao got angry at Dongfang He for hugging him and suddenly rushed over and hit the man in the stomach.
Sigh... Why does it feel so magical when these words come out of Dongfang He's mouth?! Chang Ningchen couldn't help but look at the two people in front of him.
Dongfang He quickly reached out and touched Gu Xingtao's head, expressing his love for Gu Xingtao in front of Chang Ningchen.
Gu Xingtao didn't like others touching his head, but as an ally he still endured it!
During dinner, both of them picked up food for Chang Ningchen, and then picked up food for each other. The old housekeeper was so moved by seeing this scene that he was in tears. It had been a long time since the Gu family had seen such a heartwarming scene.
Then, while everyone was happy, he said, "Master, the two young ladies from the third house are also old enough to choose a husband. The second and third masters are still in prison, and the third wife is sick again..."
Dongfang He thought of what Gu Gaoxiang and Gu Shijie had done, and he disliked his two cousins very much. Since they were of age, they could choose a decent husband's family to marry into and live in peace.
Chang Ningchen thought about it and realized that the second wife had only one son, Gu Wuyue, who was not very old. The third wife had two daughters, Gu Furong and Gu Ziyi, one was born to the third wife and the other was born to Gu Shijie's concubine.
It seems that the two girls are not very old, but I didn’t expect that they would be found husbands so soon. Girls can’t be careless when getting married, as it is a lifelong thing.
Seeing Dongfang He looking like he was about to do something bad, Chang Ningchen coughed and said, "I'm in charge of the Gu family's internal affairs now. Since Third Aunt is sick, I'll help with the two young ladies' weddings!"
Seeing that Dong Er was going to take over, the housekeeper was both happy and a little worried. He always felt that the look in Master Gu's eyes just now was not very kind. But although Master Dong Er's wife was friendly, Master Gu San almost buried the second young lady alive before, so he might not arrange the marriage of the two young ladies carefully.
But having an arrangement is better than having no arrangement at all. The old butler handed some lists to Chang Ningchen. After all, he had no say in the young ladies' marriages.
Dongfang He asked curiously, "You were almost harmed by the people from the third house before, so why are you taking on this hard work now?"
Gu Xingtao stood on his father's side this time. His aunt was usually very busy, and now she had to take care of the affairs of his two aunts. Wouldn't she have even less time to accompany him?
"One thing is one thing, and these two girls have never hurt me. If they are in trouble, it is not difficult for me to lend a hand within my ability."
Chang Ningchen looked through the list. Most of the names on the list were from Gu Cheng's merchant families, some were local tyrants and some were big families. He found that he had come into contact with many of the young masters' fathers, so he began to classify them.
Gu Xingtao watched curiously as Chang Ningchen divided the list into four parts. He asked, "What are you dividing, Aunt?"
Chang Ningchen replied: "I am distinguishing between character, family background and wealth."
During the contact process, those with good character are divided into one group, those with good family background are divided into one group, those with a lot of wealth are divided into one group, and those with bad character, poor family background, and those who are strong on the outside but weak on the inside are put into one group. This group of bad people are the first batch to be screened out.
Dongfang He casually picked up a book and looked at it and said, "Doesn't this Qian Hengduo seem quite handsome? It's just that his family has fallen on hard times. Maybe he can still seize the opportunity to make a name for himself."
Chang Ningchen shook his head and said, "His father is a well-known playboy. Like father, like son."
Gu Xingtao looked at Gu Jiuhe and immediately became distrustful of him. It seemed that his father was planning to marry his aunt before divorcing his mother! Isn't this a complete fickle thing?
Dongfang He saw Gu Xingtao looking at him, and he quickly said, "Like father, like son. For example, Li Dafu's son is very good. He is down-to-earth and has become a commander under me."
Chang Ningchen frowned and said, "Doesn't that mean he gave up business and joined the army?"
Dongfang He said: "Businessmen cannot save the current flower growers. Only by devoting our limited lives to the revolution can we save the country, just like what Mr. Sun did. Healing people is not as good as healing the country."
Chang Ningchen nodded. Dongfang He's words made sense, but he only knew how to do business now. Was this guy saying he was useless? Chang Ningchen was unhappy that Dongfang He denied his efforts and angrily pushed the door open and left.
Dongfang He saw that he had pissed off his wife, so he quickly chased after her to appease her. Gu Xingtao looked at Gu Jiuhe with bright eyes. He had never imagined that his father's ambition was so great. His purpose in becoming a marshal was to save the country!
An angry Chang Ningchen went to the backyard, and then saw someone trying to climb over the wall. This was where the ladies in the backyard lived, and if someone with bad intentions came here, it would be troublesome!
Chang Ningchen shouted: "Who is it?!"
"boom!"
Then there was the sound of something falling to the ground, but the person ran away quickly, and Gu Furong walked out trembling from the bushes.
"Hello, second sister-in-law."
Ah! Ah! There's something strange! Chang Ningchen looked at Gu Furong, who was looking around and didn't dare to look at him. He asked, "What are you doing?"
Gu Furong stammered, "I'm... I'm taking a walk."
Chang Ningchen had a look on his face that said, "You and your sister are about to get married. Don't do anything bad. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to get married, but your sister will also be implicated by you."
Gu Furong immediately nodded and ran away quickly. Chang Ningchen looked at the girl who was running so fast. He suspected that Gu Furong might be having a secret meeting with another man.
Although it is the Republic of China now, it is still a serious matter for a girl to secretly meet other men before she gets married. If it is just a simple friendship, Chang Ningchen will turn a blind eye, but if they are in a relationship, others will definitely say something bad about her.
Before, he thought that the girls in the compound were all quiet and introverted, but now it seems that the girls in the compound are also quite lively.
When they get back, Chang Ningchen will ask Dongfang He to strengthen the security of the Gu Mansion, otherwise if something gets out or someone gets pregnant, it will be all over!
After all, there would definitely be cuckolds in this kind of story. His intuition told him that it was definitely not just Gu Jiuhe's wife who had this problem. Who knows, some cuckolds might be on their way...
