Mrs. Gu is a squeamish

Chapter 678: Peace and Prosperity

I spent three days in Kyoto and met people from various families.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Qiao Yuxian, Gu Yanjing and the Qiao family returned to Yuecheng.

When Qiao Huaisong and Xi Wanqing were around, Qiao Yu's family always returned to Yuecheng to celebrate the New Year.

Qiao Cheng's family will also come.

But after the two of them left, Qiao Yu never came back for the New Year.

When I came back before, my parents were there and the Qiao residence was home.

Now that I’m back, the Qiao residence is just a house.

Sadly, he dared not step inside.

This is the first time that Qiao Huaisong and Xi Wanqing have returned to celebrate the New Year since they left.

Early in the morning on New Year’s Eve, the family went to sweep the graves.

Only Qiao Weizhou went to Qiao Cheng's house.

After returning from the cemetery, Qiao Weizhou did not go to Qiao's house, but went home.

Because Qiao Shuning was gone, Qiao Cheng's family did not go to the Qiao residence.

Qiao Yu took his family to his house and sat for a while.

Qiao Cheng fell down when he went out a few days ago, sprained his waist, and is recovering from his injury.

Zheng Xiuzhu was ill some time ago and has just recovered a little, but she is still very weak.

Qiao Weizhou did not go out to work during this period. He has been taking care of the two of them at home and also managing the Qiao family's company.

He also explained it clearly to Qiao Cheng and Zheng Xiuzhu.

Now the two of them are very polite to Qiao Yuxian and the others.

After not staying in his house for long, Qiao Yu and his family returned to Qiao's house.

After returning to the Qiao residence, Chen Hui, Uncle Quan and Aunt Zhao began to prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner.

Qiao Lechu took Qiao Zhiang to paste couplets with the word "Fu" in them.

The Qiao residence is very big and has many rooms.

Qiao Yu was responsible for writing couplets and the word "Fu".

And Gu Shao is responsible for grinding ink
Qiao Yuxian played everywhere.

Sometimes I help out in the kitchen, sometimes I help to paste the word "Fu", and sometimes I help to write two words.

But because his writing was too ugly, he was driven away by Qiao Yu.

Then he took two extremely ugly Chinese characters for "Fu" that he had written himself and pasted them on the door of his room.

Gu Yanjing went to her room to get a brush twice.

Seeing the two words "Fu" over and over again made my eyes go dark.

But even so, he still boasted about it.

Qiao Yu told him to go to the hospital for emergency ophthalmology. Then he was scolded by Chen Hui.

"Zhiang, come here and show your sister why your little face is so scratched." Qiao Zhiang stood on tiptoe to help Qiao Lechu hold the couplet. Qiao Yuxian came over and suddenly called him over.

Qiao Lechu looked down at his little face and said, "Go ahead, let me take a look."

Qiao Zhiang ran to Qiao Yuxian, looked up at her and said, "Maybe the ink wasn't dry yet and rubbed on it. I thought I was very careful."

"Maybe." Qiao Yuxuan wiped his little face with his fingers, first wiping the left side and then the right side.

"Is it impossible to wipe it off?" Qiao Zhiang's big eyes blinked.

Qiao Yuxian said: "Well, it's a little hard to wipe. I'll take you to the bathroom to wash it."

"Okay." Qiao Zhiang went to the bathroom with her.

As a result, as soon as the brother and sister arrived at the bathroom, Qiao Zhiang burst into a shocking shout.

The child's voice was so high and clear that it startled everyone.

Everyone quickly looked towards the bathroom and saw Qiao Yuxian running out with a smile. After a few seconds, Qiao Zhiang chased out with a clown face.

"Sister!" The small voice was very angry.

The others stared at him in shock for a moment, then all burst out laughing.

Qiao Lechu and Chen Hui laughed the loudest.

"How beautiful it is." Qiao Yuxian said as he ran, "I have used fifty years of painting skills."

"Ah! I don't want it! You are bullying a child!" Qiao Zhiang chased her around the yard.

Finally he caught up with him, but Qiao Yuxian held him down and took several photos of him.

In the end, Qiao Yuxian washed his face and promised to attend the next parent-teacher meeting. Only then did Xiao Zhiang feel happy again.

After eating the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, Qiao Yu, Chen Hui, Uncle Quan and Aunt Zhao sat in the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Qiao Lechu and Qiao Zhiang curled up on the sofa and played games with Lin Huaishu and Lin Huaishu's assistant.

Qiao Yuxian took Gu Yanjing to the Buddhist temple in the west wing.

When they arrived at the Buddhist temple, as soon as they entered, Gu Yanjing looked at the statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva enshrined inside.

Qiao Yuxian closed the door, walked forward, took three incense sticks, lit them and bowed.

Gu Yanjing stood behind her, and after a few seconds, he also took the incense and bowed.

Qiao Yuxian knelt down and he followed suit.

Then he followed Qiao Yuxian to the back of the Buddha statue and opened the secret room.

The floor behind the Buddha statue opened and Qiao Yuxian turned on the light inside.

Gu Yanjing looked at the countless steps going down.

The two of them went in together and walked down a distance. Qiao Yuxian knocked on the wall twice and the floor above closed.

Gu Yanjing looked up, then followed her down a long distance before reaching the end of the stairs.

Qiao Yuxian took him a few steps forward, and after turning right, he saw the tablets inside. As they walked forward, the tablets became clearer and clearer.

When he got there and stopped, he could clearly see the name, number, and date on it.

From high to low, rows and rows, countless.

He had seen many names, numbers, and codes.

Last year, Mr. Gu went to Lingshan Temple and wrote many names of the places here.

Gu Yanjing looked up at the three big words "Yaoshan Island" above, and then looked at all the tablets from high to low.

All the way to the bottom, Qiao Huaisong and Xi Wanqing's.

Qiao Yuxian also looked at all the tablets, then took three incense sticks and gave them to Gu Yanjing.

Gu Yanjing took it.

They lit the incense, bowed together, and placed it in the incense burner.

Qiao Yuxian said: "Grandpa, grandma, seniors, this is Gu Yanjing. Grandpa Gu's grandson."

Gu Yanjing looked at them, and after a moment, he nodded and bowed respectfully.

"Qu Qingkong has been killed, and his son and grandson have also been arrested. They will all be sentenced soon. They did not get the map of Yaoshan Island. Qu Qingkong's laboratories were also completely destroyed, and his research was handed over to the research institute." Qiao Yuxian reported, "Some of the people they captured have been rescued. As for some test subjects, they are currently researching antidotes."

Qiao Yuxian reported everything that had happened during this period, and then said, "Grandpa and grandma, we have completed what you asked us to do. No one will be persecuted by Qu Qingkong anymore."

"Everyone. Rest in peace."

Qiao Yuxian bowed.

Gu Yanjing looked at the countless tablets. They all died because of Qu Qingkong. They all sacrificed their lives to prevent the potion from leaking out and harming people.

He risked his life to stop Qu Qingkong.

Gu Yanjing also bowed and kowtowed again.

Qiao Yuxian tilted his head to look at him, and after a while he said, "What do you think they would say if they saw you?"

Gu Yanjing thought for a moment and said, "This little bastard is quite good."

Qiao Yuxian laughed: "You are quite good at guessing."

Gu Yanjing also laughed.

The two stayed here for a long time, and Qiao Yuxian told him a lot of things that Xi Wanqing had told her before.

I also told them a lot about what they had experienced.

Qiao Yuxian praised Gu Yanjing.

The two of them didn't come out until she felt a little cold inside.

After coming out of the secret room, he bowed to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva again before leaving the Buddhist hall.

As I reached the corridor outside, the sky suddenly lit up.

The two looked up at the same time and saw fireworks exploding in the sky, which was extremely dazzling.

Then firecrackers rang out near and far, and fireworks bloomed everywhere in the sky.

The colors interweave in the sky.

"It's midnight." Qiao Yuxian looked at Gu Yanjing and said, "Hubby, Happy New Year!"

Gu Yanjing smiled and lowered his head to kiss her: "Happy New Year."

Qiao Yuxian smiled and looked up at the fireworks in the sky. After watching for a while, she said, "They are so beautiful, it should be effective if I make a wish."

Gu Yanjing also looked up and said, "Xuan one?"

"Together." Qiao Yuxian said, "Don't say it out loud, it won't work if you say it out loud."

"Ah."

Gu Yanjing watched Qiao Yuxian close his eyes. After a few seconds, he also looked up at the sky and closed his eyes.

May the country be peaceful and the people be safe. May the people I love be safe, healthy, happy and free from worries.

May the seas be peaceful and rivers be clear, and everything be prosperous. May my wife be happy and worry-free, and live in peace every year.

Flower full moon stay

Okay, it's over.

Um.
I don't know what to say.

This book took too long to write because I went through too much.

In the past, after I finished writing a book, I would read it myself.

I dare not read this one because it contains many quotes from writers, which are the reasons why I asked for leave from everyone.

I dare not recall every time.

Thank you very much for sticking with me even in this situation.

Well, thank you all very much.

It was you who helped me. Every time I read your messages, I think there are still people waiting for me.

Otherwise I don’t know what would happen.

Thank you all for your support, and thank you all for your love for Gu Shao and Qiao Yuxian.
