Gu Yuheng waved his hand, "You can’t be blad for this."
He and his second and third brothers were half-brothers, sharing the sa father but different mothers. Although his stepmother never abused him, she wasn’t particularly kind to him either, so there was so estrangent between the brothers.
However, his two younger brothers were very upright. After he disappeared, they never thought of seizing his land and houses. If any issues arose, they would help as long as the children ntioned it.
After experiencing so much, Gu Yuheng, now older, increasingly valued family affection.
His second uncle added, "Jiao Jiao gave the keys to your courtyard back then. When I had ti, I’d go over and take a look. Just the other day, I cleaned up the weeds in the courtyard."
"It’s just that with the house being uninhabited for several years, it looks rather rundown."
Gu Yuheng stood up, "Let’s go take a look. I plan to stay at ho for a night and see if it can be tidied up."
His second and third uncles accompanied him out, and his second aunt said with a smile, "My sister-in-law and I won’t go over. It’s getting late, and we need to hurry and prepare the als."
When Gu Yuheng and his group left, his second and third aunts looked at the room full of gift boxes, smiling from ear to ear.
The two quickly sorted out the things briefly without taking a closer look and rushed to the kitchen to cook.
Returning ho, he saw that the courtyard was indeed neat and tidy, with not a single weed in sight, indicating his second uncle’s genuine efforts.
His second uncle unlocked the door, revealing a thick layer of dust inside.
His third uncle hastily said, "Big brother, there’s no bedding here, and cleaning would be a hassle. If it’s just for one night, it might be better to make do at our place."
Gu Yuheng looked to Yun Jiao, waiting for her decision.
Yun Jiao thought for a mont, "With so many people, we can’t all fit."
"Let’s have lunch first, then we’ll head to the inn in the city."
Gu Yuheng nodded, took a tour around, reflected for a while, and then ca out.
Outside, he said to his second uncle, "I guess Xiao Chuan won’t be coming back to live here."
"Now that my nephew is married, I see your house is a bit cramped. If my nephew doesn’t mind, let him have this house."
Before his second uncle could respond, Gu Yun Jiao’s cousin, Gu Tang, happily said, "Thank you, Uncle."
The group returned to the second uncle’s house, whereupon the second uncle asked, "Where are you living now, big brother? Give an address so we can stay in touch if needed."
Both the second and third uncles were literate, so they brought over pen and ink, and Gu Yuheng wrote down Renxin Hall, Xiang City.
The third uncle exclaid, "Renxin Hall?"
"A few years ago, Renxin Hall was famous. Even here, we heard that there was a Divine Doctor Gu with excellent dical skills, who could even revive the dead."
"Is that Divine Doctor Gu you? But I heard Divine Doctor Gu is a woman!"
Gu Yuheng chuckled, "Divine Doctor Gu is Jiao Jiao. Now, my son-in-law has bought back the shop, and I’m managing it there."
Both his second and third uncles and several of Yun Jiao’s cousins looked at Yun Jiao in surprise. The second uncle said, "Who would’ve thought, the n in our family aren’t capable, but Jiao Jiao made a na for herself outside, achieving this great reputation."
"Our ancestors would be torn between tears and laughter if they knew from the heavens."
Gu Yuheng cleared his throat lightly, as that remark included him as well.
The second uncle laughed, "After all, Jiao Jiao is still a Gu. When people speak of Divine Doctor Gu, it’s still a source of pride for our Gu family."
"By the way, did Jiao Jiao also marry into Xiang City?"
"Earlier, I heard she went to the Capital City. Which family did she end up marrying into?"
