Chapter 784: Father, You Don’t Understand
Editor: Henyee Translations
The smile on Gu Yundong’s face froze. “What’s wrong? What’s going to happen tomorrow?”
Lu Sheng nodded. “The entire city will be under martial law tomorrow.”
This time, not only Gu Yundong, but even Gu Dajiang stopped. “Why?”
“Tomorrow, a group of prisoners will be paraded on the streets and dragged to the entrance of the market to be executed. Master and Miss came back at the right time. If you come tomorrow, I’m afraid you wouldn’t even be able to enter the city tomorrow.”
This was the first time Gu Yundong had encountered such a thing. If the culprits were to be executed, she could not walk around.
Lu Sheng continued, “Although they won’t pass by the entrances of the two shops, there are too many people and it’s rather chaotic.”
Gu Yundong looked at Yunshu and Yuanzhi. They were still young.
In fact, she did not object to bringing the children to watch the parade. After all, they were already literate in school and would probably have to take an official career in the future. There was nothing to avoid.
However, she was afraid that the scene would be too chaotic and someone would take the opportunity to steal the children.
In particular, who knew if someone would try to rescue the prisoners? If there were too many people, it was easy to get injured from stepping.
Hmm, so let’s wait for them to grow up a little.
When the two of them heard that they could not go out on the streets, they were immediately disappointed. After all, their vacation was not long anymore. Every day counted.
However, they also knew that they would definitely add trouble tomorrow.
Therefore, they could only nod obediently. However, the excitement from before had already disappeared, and they were a little tired.
Lu Sheng was a little vexed. He felt that he had done something wrong. He should not have brought it up at this time.
But Gu Yundong stepped forward and put her arm around their shoulders. “It’s nothing serious. Even if we can’t go out on the streets tomorrow, we can still walk around this area, right? This area is not far from Tianhai Academy. The people living nearby are all scholars. You can meet one every two steps you take. There are also many students around your age. Perhaps you can make friends.”
When the two of them heard this, they were instantly interested. “Can we play nearby?”
“Sure. There’s a child next door. Keke knows him. I’ll get Keke to bring you guys there tomorrow.”
The little girl immediately nodded and patted her chest hard. “Yes, follow me and you’ll have food to eat.”
Gu Yundong knocked her on the head. “Who did you learn these words from?”
Ah Gou, who was standing at the back, shrunk his head silently. You can’t see me, you can’t see me, you can’t see me.
Yunshu and Yuanzhi finally became happy again. The two of them surrounded Keke and asked questions.
Gu Yundong and Gu Dajiang looked at each other before shrugging and going to eat.
After all, they were tired from sitting in the carriage all day. After dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest. Shao Qingyuan brought Ah Mao and the others back to the shop he had bought.
The next morning, Gu Yundong put on her clothes and prepared to go out. Unexpectedly, when she opened the door, Gu Dajiang was already standing outside.
Gu Yundong was speechless.
She laughed dryly. “Good morning, Father.”
Gu Dajiang snorted. “It’s rare for you to wake up so early. It looks like you don’t want to wake anyone up. Why? Where are you going?”
Gu Yundong saw his understanding expression and decided not to beat around the bush. “I just want to see the streets.” Beheading.
“What’s there to see?”
Gu Yundong sighed slightly. “Father, you don’t understand.”
