Dai Shi and Gu Chi were both startled, and looked up towards the corridor.

At the corner of the corridor outside the house stood a woman in gray clothes. Even though she was dressed plainly, she could not conceal her aura and peerless face.

She was just standing there, but it felt like she was in a dream, which was very unreal.

She is elegant and beautiful.

When they touched the figure, their hearts trembled.

Dai Shi felt that she was hallucinating. The sunlight shining on her body seemed to be coated with a layer of light. It was too unreal.

Gu Chi held Dai Shi's hand tightly.

"grandmother."

Ye Qianning called out again and stepped forward step by step.

It wasn't until the other party spoke that Dai Shi suddenly woke up. His eyes were filled with disbelief and uncertainty, and he stumbled forward in panic while holding on to his hand.

"Second Aunt, please slow down." Gu Chi also came to his senses and held on tightly with both hands.

Ye Qianning came over in a few steps, getting closer and closer, and his appearance became clearer and clearer in the other person's eyes.

Her skin was as smooth as cream, without applying makeup, and she looked like a fairy walking out of a painting.

Gu Chi raised his head and was slightly absent-minded.

"You...you..." Dai Shi was too nervous to speak.

"Grandma, I am, I am Ye Qianning."

Ye Qianning walked up to him, his eyes were red, and his eyes were as bright as stars, and there was a mist of water gathering in them.

Dai Shi broke away from Gu Chi's hand and looked at the person in front of her. His trembling hand slowly touched her face. The warmth on her face made her realize that it was not a dream.

"You are Qian Ning, are you really Qian Ning?"

I can't believe it, I can't admit it...

Ye Qianning raised her hand and covered Dai Shi's hand: "Grandma, it's me, I'm back."

At this moment, Dai Shi couldn't bear it any longer, and she cried muffledly while hugging Ye Qianning. She didn't even have time to hug her back then, and she wouldn't have time to talk to her properly in the future...

Her granddaughter, her only granddaughter...

Ye Qianning hugged her back, with mist flowing from the corners of her eyes, and gently patted her back with her fingers. She didn't understand the meaning of family before, but only after she recognized her father did she fully understand.

Gu Chi looked blankly at the people hugging and crying in front of him, and for some reason his eyes were moist.

Ye Qianning, is she really the fat little girl back then?

Can not believe it……

Dai Shi cried for a while, then slowly stopped, withdrew from Ye Qianning's arms, raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes: "Look at me, I lost my composure for a moment."

She was an elder, and she cried on her granddaughter like this. What did the little girl think?

Ye Qianning didn't even wipe her tears, and got into Dai Shi's arms again, resting her head on her shoulder: "Grandma, I miss you very much."

Dai Shi was stunned and wanted to cry again. She hugged the little girl and said, "Grandma misses you too. She misses you so much."

"I should have come back earlier, and my great-grandfather wouldn't have ended up like this." The person Ye Qianning felt most sorry for was Mr. Gu, because she hadn't had time to let him enjoy his happiness.

She should have rushed back when she recovered from her illness, but she felt annoyed in her heart.

Dai Shi let go of her and saw the regret in her eyes. He raised his hand to pluck the hair from her temples and tied it behind her ears. He said in a soft voice, "Silly boy, don't say that. Your grandpa is too old."

She still dared not think about her injuries back then, when the sword pierced her chest. How could such a serious injury be healed in three to five years?

Ye Qianning sniffed and said nothing.

"Second Aunt... don't stand outside, go inside and talk." Gu Chi wanted to call her, but for a moment he didn't know what to call.

He has never understood the relationship between Ye Qianning and the Gu family.

Dai Shi reacted immediately and pulled Ye Qianning: "Look at me, I've forgotten. It's too hot outside. Let's go inside and drink some tea to relieve the heat."

Ye Qianning was pulled into the room, which was cool and cool.

The three of them sat down and Gu Chi poured tea for Dai Shi and Ye Qianning.

"Are you...really Ye Qianning?" Gu Chi couldn't help but ask.

Ye Qianning picked up the cup and smiled at him: "It's true."

Gu Chi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then chuckled and said: "It seems that his temperament is the same as when he was a child. His appearance has changed so much. If he were walking on the road, I wouldn't dare to recognize him to death."

Fortunately, he was in the Gu family. If he were outside, even if she said she was Ye Qianning, he wouldn't believe her.

"She was so young back then, and her facial features were not open. Now that she has grown up, it is natural that she cannot be recognized." Dai Shi said something, looked at her and said: "Her smile is still somewhat similar to that of her childhood."

"My father Gu said my nose looks like his when he was a child." Ye Qianning took a sip of tea.

Dai laughed out loud when he heard this: "His nose almost collapsed when he was a child, but he still has the nerve to say he looks like him."

"Oh? My dad's nose isn't flat now either."

"At that time, your great-grandfather got a folk remedy from somewhere. He used his hands to squeeze it every day. I don't know if it was the effect of the squeeze. It made him erect as he grew older."

Ye Qianning found it interesting that a person as fickle as Mr. Gu was really capable of doing things. Thinking back then...

I don’t know if there will be another opportunity to chat and laugh with him.

"Speaking of which, I've heard about this too. I remember one year when shopkeeper Song's grandson was one month old, my grandfather and I went to drink full moon wine together. After my grandfather met the child, before he left, he pulled shopkeeper Song and said that his grandson's nose was Damn, I also reminded you to pinch it more." Gu Chi also remembered this interesting thing.

Ye Qianning: "Shopkeeper Song's grandson's nose is also straightened?"

"I don't know if it's good or not. Shopkeeper Song moved his family south within two years."

"My great-great-grandfather always listens to the wind and rains. My father is naturally handsome, just like grandma." This folk remedy for children, nose pinching, is unreliable and depends on one's own genes!
Dai Shi felt more relaxed: "I'm just sweet-talking. Are your father and the others okay now?"

"In Sifang Town."

"What happened at the city gate yesterday...do you really want to leave?" Dai Shi was worried.

"We can't leave. The Fourth Prince went to Sifang Town early this morning."

Dai Shi was a little panicked when he heard this: "What should I do? If I had known, you would not have entered Beili. Now that the city is in such chaos, I am afraid that the Holy One will not let you go."

She had been feeling uneasy since the city gate yesterday. Early in the morning, there was a rumor that the imperial edict in the city had been reproduced, causing a stir. If the three and four bedrooms had not blocked the door early in the morning, she would have sent people out of the city to find out the news.

"Grandma, don't worry. The fourth prince just went to summon dad and master to the city, but dad refused." Ye Qianning met the fourth prince when he went downstairs.

"Yes, it's best not to enter the city, but you still have to act according to the situation in Beili."

"We can't leave anyway, but it's impossible to let dad and master enter the city just by relying on the imperial edict. When we entered Beili, we decided to come back only after reading the edict. The fifth princess's statement yesterday was false, and the royal family must give an explanation. That’s all.”

Do you want to give an explanation to the royal family?

Gu Chi had never heard of anyone daring to challenge the royal family like this. The moment he threw down the imperial edict to Marquis Ming yesterday, he had to admit that he was really bloody.

If Beili had not treated Xiang Minghou like that, Beili would not be at the bottom of the Four Kingdoms now. In the past five years, Beili had ceded more than a dozen cities to Dongsi...

Dai Shi was shocked when she heard this, but she was not afraid: "If there is any grandma who can help me, just ask. Although the Gu family is not as good as before, many powerful people in the capital also recognize her, so she can be helped to some extent."

"Grandma doesn't need to do anything. Dad and the others are safe in Sifang Mountain, but they may have to live there for ten and a half days. I can't wait to see Grandpa sneak in first." There is no way that Emperor Beili would let them out. If they want to take action on Sifang Mountain, it will be even more of a headache. They have time to waste, and it depends on whether Emperor Beili can afford it.

"How dare you yourself to make the city such a mess, and your father can rest assured." Dai Shi stared at her angelically beautiful granddaughter with worry, what if the bad guys were interested in her.

"There is someone with me, but I just asked him to do something on the way here. Besides, I brought this with me when I entered the city." Ye Qianning took out the human skin mask from his arms.

Dai Shi was confused: "This is it."

Ye Qianning smiled, lowered her head and covered her face with the mask. After a moment, she looked up again and she became a little girl with a dark appearance.

"This... is so good, so good." In troubled times, this is the way to go unnoticed.

Gu Chi gained insight: "Is it the legendary human skin mask?"

"Uncle knows?" Ye Qianning asked.

Uncle?

Gu Chi was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.

"Xiaochi." Dai called.

Gu Chi came back to his senses, slightly embarrassed, and coughed lightly: "I've heard of it, but I've never seen it."

He never understood the relationship between Ye Qianning and the Gu family. At that time, he only knew that his grandfather struggled for a long time to recognize Ye Qianning as his great-granddaughter. Later, he heard that Gu Shuo seemed to be closer to her.

In the end, the old man got his wish. After what happened in Sifang Mountain, my grandfather was sad and my second aunt looked very sad too.

He had never seen his second aunt and Ye Qianning come into contact with each other, so how could they establish such a deep friendship?

Some time ago, I heard some business talk, saying that in Dayu City, Gu Shuo handed over everything in Xianhai Tower to Ye Qianning. He didn't know whether it was true or not. Even if it was true, it didn't have much to do with him. He was just curious. .

Now even more curious.

"If my cousin is interested, I will give one to my cousin someday." Ye Qianning called warmly.

Gu Chi felt inexplicably pleasant and comfortable when he heard it: "No, I don't need it either."

"Are human skin masks torn off from human faces?" Dai Shi was also a little curious.

"There is such a thing, but this is not mine. It is a simulation made of some special materials. After being soaked, polished and carved, it looks like human skin."

"So that's the case."

It would be too scary if it were taken from a person's face.

"Ma'am, ma'am."

Rosin hurried in with medicine in hand.

Dai Shi raised his head: "Why are you so panicked?"

"The uncle, the second master, the third master, and the fourth master are all coming this way. They don't look good, and they are afraid they are going to make trouble." Song Xiang said anxiously.

Dai stood up and said, "Xiaochi, please help us drive them out first."

"Okay, I'll take care of it." Gu Chi frowned and stood up.

"Wait a moment."

Ye Qianning stopped him.

Dai Shi and Gu Chi turned around.

Only then did Rosin notice that there was a dark girl in the room.

"I heard your argument in the hall just now."

Ye Qianning just listened outside the door. She didn't know the specific conditions of the third and fourth rooms, but they seemed to be anxious to divide the house since they couldn't see Gu Shuo.

Dai Shi was a little embarrassed when she heard this. She never expected that she would bump into the messy Gu family.

"Don't get involved in the Gu family's affairs. Grandma has many ideas. We are finally reunited today, so don't let them disturb our mood."

Dai is in a good mood today and doesn't want to tear them apart now.

"Grandma, if they want to share the money, just sell the house and let them share it."

Dai Shi was stunned: "No, this house belongs to your great-grandfather and no one can touch it."

Gu Chi also nodded.

Song Xiang looked confused and felt that the dark and thin girl in front of her spoke too boldly.

"They won't give up if they don't get the money. It's better to sell it and let them stop thinking about it." If you don't get the money, you will always think about it. It's hard to guard against villains.

"They can have anything they want, except this house." Dai made up his mind to fight with them: "Even if your great-grandfather does something good in the future, the house will not change hands if it is empty."

"Qian Ning, this house means a lot to grandpa, so we can't sell it." Gu Chi himself didn't agree.

"Grandma, cousin, the house is not being sold to others, but to me. Wouldn't Grandma agree if it was sold to me?" Ye Qianning just wanted to change hands.

"you?"

"Well, grandma, cousin, do you agree?"

Dai Shi saw her serious look and sighed, "Do you agree?"
If the old man were here, he would probably put his hands in front of her.

"it is good."

If it were anyone else, she would never let go, but she could trust her own granddaughter.

Gu Chi seemed to have reacted, understood what she meant, and didn't refute, but...

"If they find out the clues, they will definitely think that Gu Shuo sent someone to set up a trap. With the shameless appearance of the fourth uncle, they will definitely not give up." The third uncle and the fourth uncle gathered here just to get some benefits from Gu Shuo. .

Ye Qianning smiled and said, "That doesn't matter. The seller will let them find it themselves."

"Look for it yourself?" Gu Chi was puzzled.

Dai Shi also looked puzzled.

"My uncle's family still has many shops in the capital, right?" Ye Qianning asked.

"There are some."

"Recently, a nouveau riche has come to the capital. He is buying Zhuangzi everywhere and buying up all the expensive shops. He is rich and arrogant. Does your uncle know?"

"I know, he is a rich man named Fu. He has bought a lot of things at the Gu family's jewelry store before, and the amount each time was more than ten thousand taels. He also frequents the store under the name of Huangshang, and he usually gives rewards. For dozens of times, some of the officials in charge of the imperial merchants now regard him as their ancestor." Speaking of this man, Gu Chi was deeply impressed, he was extravagant.

"I've also heard from people in the mansion. I heard that he hired the immortal drunk on the fourth floor. He also likes to listen to auspicious words. One auspicious word costs ten taels of silver, which makes many people start to learn auspicious words. It seems that the third-bedroom can even get it. There are 50 taels of silver."

Dai knew this person without leaving home, he was too ostentatious.

Ye Qianning knew about Fu Cheng's stay in the capital before he arrived in Beili.

Dai Shi and Gu Chi said it more euphemistically. Fu Cheng really knows how to enjoy it. He has a beautiful woman in his arms, singing and singing every night. What he orders is the top of the flower house in the capital. Are the dancers and the musicians all the top of the show? Ten thousand a day. gold.

His food is more luxurious than the royal meal. There are more than 80 dishes in a meal, which is comparable to a running water banquet.

Every day, I put my hands on my clothes and open my mouth. The entertainment program consists of listening to music, watching dances, throwing money, spending money, and playing with paper money or paper airplanes!

This guy definitely lets himself go without spending his own money!
