Chapter 573: Boss Gu is Seriously Ill
Hearing Gu Yunxi's words, the wet nurse who was taking care of the eldest son, Hong Ge'er, was startled and almost fell to her knees.
The wet nurse who took care of the second son Kai'er and the wet nurse who took care of the third son Jun'er were also listening, but their reactions were completely different.
The two were filled with joy and said hurriedly: "Oh, thank you, Madam. Madam is so kind and has been so good to us!"
Taking care of the young master is their responsibility. The young mistress has already given them monthly wages. One month's wages is enough for a family in their village to earn a whole year.
Now, they have saved more than ten taels of silver following the Lu family. By the time the young master turns one year old, they will be able to save twenty or thirty taels of silver.
The young lady actually promised today that she would give them an extra sum of money after sending them back. This is such a great joy!
Gu Yunxi smiled and pretended not to notice the strange reaction of the wet nurse who was taking care of the eldest son. He held Hong Ge'er and continued to tease him for a while before putting him down.
"As long as you take good care of the young masters, you will naturally get some benefits. But at the same time, if you fail to take good care of them and something happens to them, you will have to pay with your heads."
When these words were spoken, the three wet nurses were frightened.
The wet nurse who was taking care of the third child, Jun Ge'er, thought to herself, since they came to the Lu family, Madam Lu had never spoken to them like this before. So why is she doing this now?
Gu Yunxi glanced around again and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, as long as you take good care of it, everything will be fine."
"I have heard some noises in the mansion recently. I think they are not coming from here. The nurses are from villages near Xijiang Village. They are all honest people. We have seen them do things reliably over the past few months."
After some knocking, Gu Yunxi took Xiao Cui out of the room.
After coming out, Gu Yunxi instructed Xiao Cui: "Xiao Cui, you should pay close attention to taking care of the nurses these days, especially Hong Ge'er's nurse."
Xiao Cui knew what the young lady was worried about, and nodded immediately: "Don't worry, young lady, I have asked someone to keep a close eye on our young master, and we will not let anything happen to him."
Gu Yunxi was quite satisfied. He turned his head to look at Xiao Cui and said with a smile, "Xiao Cui, you have made a lot of progress recently!"
Watching Gu Yunxi walk away, Xiao Cui touched her head, her face full of confusion.
Could it be that she was very stupid before? That's why the young lady praised her like this?
When Xiao Cui thought of this possibility, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Shaking her head, Xiao Cui quickly followed Gu Yunxi's pace, but when they reached the outside of the yard, Xiao Cui bowed and walked away from Gu Yunxi.
There are some things in the inner courtyard that cannot be resolved, so she wants to talk to Mo San and let him make some arrangements.
Mo San was sitting outside. When he saw Xiao Cui coming over, he smiled and said, "I was just looking for you. It's just in time that you're here!"
Xiao Cui looked confused: "You're looking for me? What's wrong?"
"Here, this is a letter sent from my hometown in Xijiang Village." Mo San picked up a letter from the table and handed it to Xiao Cui.
"This letter was written by the village chief of Xijiang Village to the young lady. He said that there was something important and wanted the young lady to read the letter with her own eyes."
Xiao Cui was even more confused and reached out to take it: "I'll give it to the young lady later."
"There are some things in the inner courtyard. Let me tell you first..."
Xiao Cui talked to Mo San for a long time and finally finished telling him about what happened in the inner courtyard.
Mo San nodded: "Well, I will arrange someone to deal with it later, you go back first."
Mo San has always been reliable in his work. As long as he promises to do something, there is almost nothing he cannot do.
Xiao Cui had been dealing with him for a long time and was already very clear about Mo San's ability to get things done. She felt relieved, smiled at Mo San, and turned to leave the back seat.
Back in the inner courtyard, Xiao Cui personally handed the letter to Gu Yunxi.
"Madam, this is what Mo San asked me to give you. He said it was sent by the village chief of Xijiang Village."
Gu Yunxi had just returned to the room and was about to take a nap when he saw Xiao Cui handing him a letter, so he reached out to take it.
After opening the package, Gu Yunxi's face became more and more ugly. Xiao Cui was waiting on the side, she was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
"Young Madam, but, but if there is anything important, please tell me to do it if necessary!" Xiao Cui spoke tentatively.
Gu Yunxi held the letter, read it again, lowered his head and said, "No, you go down first."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui nodded and walked out.
Gu Yunxi was alone in the room, thinking over and over again, and finally decided to go find He Feng and Gu Yunle.
Holding the letter in her hand, she went to Gu Yunle's room first.
Gu Yunle was originally embroidering. When she saw Gu Yunxi coming over, she smiled and said, "Sister, why are you here?"
Her sister rarely comes to her room, and they always talk about things outside. Why does she come here now? It seems like something is wrong?
Looking at the expression on her sister's face, it seemed... a little solemn?
"Sister, what happened? Don't scare me!" Gu Yunle hurriedly put down the embroidery needle and put the embroidery aside.
Gu Yunxi forced a smile, sat down next to Gu Yunle, and then handed the letter in his hand to her.
Although Gu Yunle was illiterate since childhood, she later learned embroidery. In order to help her develop better in the future, Gu Yunxi often taught her to read in his spare time.
Therefore, Gu Yunle also knows some simple words.
She took the letter handed to her by Gu Yunxi and began to read it word by word, stumbling over it, as if she were recognizing a word.
"Dongpo Village, the old Gu family... Is the eldest brother Gu seriously ill?"
"Ah? Gu, Boss Gu? Our father?" Gu Yunle was frightened by the words he read out and looked at Gu Yunxi for help.
"Sister, am I reading this correctly?"
Their father, Gu Lao Da, is only a few years old. He works in the fields all day and is strong and healthy. How could he be seriously ill?
Therefore, Gu Yunle suspected that he was illiterate and had recognized the wrong words.
However, Gu Yunxi nodded slowly: "You read it right, he is seriously ill."
"This letter was written by the village chief uncle of Xijiang Village. The letter said that he is now terminally ill and incurable. He wants to see us one last time."
Gu Yunle's eyes widened, not daring to believe what he heard.
"But, but Dad is only a few years old, how could he suddenly fall ill... Hey, sister, is this another time that Grandpa and Grandma deliberately lied to us?"
When stepmother Fang was still alive, she had lied to them about Boss Gu being seriously ill.
Maybe, now grandparents are using the same lame excuse to get them to return from the capital, and then have other plans?
The more Gu Yunle thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
However, Gu Yunxi shook his head: "Impossible, the village chief uncle went to see dad in person, the situation is true."
The village chief is a reliable person. If there is something uncertain, he would not be so anxious to write a letter to himself.
