Dressed like a loser and went to raise a baby

Chapter 667
"Why did Gillian come back with so many gold bars?"

"Where did she get it?"

"Could it be that it was stolen from bandits?" Xie Erlang's mind was in turmoil.

Xie Dalang frowned, "They probably took it from the bandits." He felt that it was not good to use the word "steal" with Gillian.

I don’t know how Gillian got it out, but only those bandits who have been running rampant in Laohu Mountain for many years have so many gold bars.

"Gillian definitely wants to take these gold bars back home so that our whole family can live a prosperous life together." Xie Laosan said with red eyes. Unfortunately, they still let Gillian down in the end.

"What are we going to do with these gold bars?" Mrs. Sun swallowed dryly.

Mrs. Liu paid attention to the expressions of her father-in-law, her husband, and her brother-in-law, and said loudly: "Since Gillian is taking these gold bars home to allow us as a family to live a prosperous and good life, we should not let her down." Just do what you want."

"Yes..." Mrs. Sun also nodded in agreement.

With so many gold bars, they don't know how much silver they would need to exchange for. They can buy a three-seater courtyard so that their family can live comfortably. In the future, when their husbands are admitted to Jinshi and become officials, this residence will look more decent.

And with so many gold bars, when the officials are arranging positions in the future, they can also give the husband a few tips, so that he can take up a post in Kyoto.

These words were very harsh in the ears of Xie Laosan, Xie Dalang, and Xie Erlang. If they wanted to use the gold, they said they wanted to use the gold to make a raft with Gillian?
They felt sorry for Gillian, and they really had no shame in using the gold that Gillian brought back.

But being shameless doesn't mean they don't like gold. They are not moved when they see so much gold. When they see so much gold, they are panicked, puzzled, and secretly happy.

Seeing that the three men were silent, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Sun looked at each other and shut their mouths.

"Dong dong dong."

"Is anyone home?"

The sudden knock on the door made all five members of the Xie family tremble, like frightened birds.

Xie Dalang reacted quickly, wrapped the gold bar with the cloth underneath it, ran into the inner room with it, hid the gold bar in the bottom of the cupboard, and covered it with his clothes.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath and walked out.

Then he gave the others a look that said, "The gold bars have been hidden and you can open the door now."

Xie Laosan opened the closed door. Mrs. Liu took a deep breath and controlled her expression, "Who is it? Here it is."

Hearing the answer from someone in the room, Fengming took back his hand to knock on the door.

"Who..." Ms. Liu opened the door and was startled when she saw four men standing outside.

None of these four men was known to her, but the leader was dressed in rich clothes, very handsome, and looked very noble.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?" Ms. Liu asked stammering.

Yu Houhuai cupped his hands and introduced to Mrs. Liu: "This is His Royal Highness King Jue. We are here today to ask about Miss Xie."

The ultimate king?Isn't that their prince from Yuanzhou?Why did the prince come to their house?
Mrs. Liu's pupils dilated because she was so shocked, her knees softened and she knelt on the ground.

Her ears were ringing, and she didn't hear what the man in the long gown said behind her.

Although Yuanzhou is a fiefdom of Fengcheng Jue, not all the people in Yuanzhou have seen him.

Mrs. Liu had never seen it before, and she never expected to meet the noble prince face to face.

"People, people and women pay their respects to the prince." Ms. Liu stuttered even more.

When Zhao Dalang and others saw Mrs. Liu kneeling down, their hearts were lifted and they were panicked.She was even more shocked when she heard that she was meeting the prince. Why did the prince come to their house?
So they hurriedly ran to the door and knelt on the ground.

"Caomin pays homage to the prince."

"The woman pays homage to the prince."

Feng Chengjue raised his hand and said, "No courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Xie family expressed their thanks and stood up. Mr. Liu's legs were so weak that he couldn't get up, so Xie Dalang helped him.

Xie Dalang is a businessman, and he is quite brave. He bent sideways and made an invitation, "Your Majesty, please come in."

Xie Laosan quickly stepped aside to make way.

Feng Chengjue nodded and walked in. Xie Dalang led the people all the way into the main room.

The rest of the Xie family followed Feng Qing and Feng Ming, and when they reached the door, Xie Erlang stopped Liu and Sun, indicating that they did not need to go in, and then pointed in the direction of the kitchen with his chin.

The two of them replied, nodded repeatedly, and the two sisters hurriedly went to the kitchen at the back.

"I don't know that Your Majesty is here, but I am not welcome from afar. Please don't be surprised, Your Majesty." Xie Dalang seemed to be calm when he arrived with his hands folded, but in fact, he was so nervous that a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

Xie Laosan nodded along with Da Lang, opening his mouth and not knowing what to say. This was the first time he saw such a noble person.

Feng Chengjue shook his head, "I am here this time to ask about Miss Xie's return home."

Xie Dalang and Xie Erlang also guessed that the reason why King Jue came to their home today was because of Gillian, because except for Gillian, they could not imagine why King Jue would suddenly arrive.

Xie Erlang said with a sad expression: "My little sister Gillian has passed away."

"I know, and you should express my condolences." Fengcheng Jue said, "I came here to ask, did Miss Xie say anything to you after she returned home?"

Xie Dalang said: "Gillian only told us that she escaped, was injured and was rescued, and returned home after recovering from her injuries. She didn't say anything else. Because she heard our conversation in the middle of the night, and knew that we all knew about her. He was lying and secretly hanged himself at night."

"My poor sister, in fact, no matter what she has gone through, we will only feel sorry for her and regret not protecting her. We will not mind those things and will take care of her for the rest of her life."

But she didn't understand and secretly hanged herself. "Tears fell from Xie Dalang's eyes, and he raised his hands to wipe away the tears with his sleeves.

Although he told some lies, his sadness was true. After all, he really loved this girl and watched her grow from a little girl to a beautiful girl.

Feng Ming and Feng Qing looked at Xie Dalang with a bit of sympathy in their eyes, feeling that he really felt sorry for his sister, who would not despise her after going through such a thing, and would take care of her for the rest of her life.

In many families, when a woman has experienced something like that, her family members will feel ashamed and wish they could die outside and never come back.

Feng Chengjue's eyebrows wrinkled almost invisible, while a hint of ridicule flashed in Yu Houhuai's eyes.

They didn't ask the girl Gillian why she hanged herself. He just told her the reason for hanging herself. What he said next made it seem like there was no 300 taels of silver in this place.

Whether his poor sister hanged herself after hearing that they knew she was lying and felt ashamed to see others, or whether she hung herself after hearing them say something else, only they knew best.

"I also heard that after Miss Xie passed away, someone came to express condolences, saying that he was the one who sent Miss Xie back?"

Xie Erlang said: "It is true."

"Then do you know who those people are? How they met your sister and sent her home." Feng Chengjue continued to ask.
