Chapter 266 - Chapter 266 Chapter 266 Are You Sure Those Things Were Taken

Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Are You Sure Those Things Were Taken by My Grandfather? Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Are You Sure Those Things Were Taken by My Grandfather? At this point, Gu Qingfeng’s eyes showed pain, sorrow, and also disappointment and helplessness. He paused for a moment, then continued, “During the turmoil, my elder nephew, in an act to demonstrate his resolve to eliminate the ‘Four Olds,’ led the burning of Yubao Square in Jinling City. Afterward, he denounced me and severed all ties, never to interact with us again. After the chaos ended, I never saw them…”

Gu Qiaoqiao was momentarily stunned.

So, such things had happened.

No wonder, the Old Patriarch would rather destroy the gemstones in the Treasure Room than give them to other members of the Gu Family.

“But there are quite a few branches of the Gu Family, with some in the Jade Carving Workshop and others in the Jade Mine. I will tell you more about them later.”

“Okay,” Gu Qiaoqiao nodded in response.

Then, she helped Old Patriarch Gu walk out of the small study.

When Uncle Gu outside saw the two emerge, he rose from the wicker chair and happily said to Gu Qingfeng, “Old Patriarch, Old Grand Master Qin just called, saying he wants to find a time to have a meal with your in-law.”

Have a meal?

This old fellow, he’s actually become an in-law with me.

But then again, it must be fate.

To rekindle relations with an old friend in such a manner.

At that moment, Gu Qingfeng was no longer brooding over long-past grievances.

His brother, with whom he had not communicated for over twenty years, I wonder how they are living now.

Speaking of which, my brother seems to be seventy-five this year.

Now, as relatives return, Gu Qingfeng felt some of his thoughts had suddenly changed.

He nodded, “Uncle Gu, tell that old fellow I’m up for a meal, but we’ll have to wait until I return from Stone Town.”

Just as Uncle Gu was about to leave, Old Patriarch Gu instructed again, “Tell your wife to have the cook prepare a few signature dishes for lunch today.”

Uncle Gu nodded with a grin and cheerfully walked out.

Gu Qiaoqiao assisted Old Patriarch Gu back to the living room and once seated, the Old Patriarch earnestly inquired about Grandma Yu’s appearance and condition.

Gu Qiaoqiao reported everything she knew in detail.

Gu Qingfeng pondered for a moment but still couldn’t imagine Lady Yu with white hair and a face full of wrinkles.

When they parted, Lady Yu was just in her thirties, but very young-looking, as though she were just past twenty.

He forced himself not to think about it anymore.

After all, one would know upon seeing the person.

He didn’t pursue the matter further, instead, he took Gu Qiaoqiao to Gu Kun’s room.

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t expect her grandfather’s room to look as if it had been recently lived in, apparently being cleaned and aired out every day.

Spacious and bright, with an antique charm, each item in the room was very valuable.

She saw her grandfather’s study, the carving room, and an old Republic of China era bicycle her grandfather had placed in the hallway.

Her grandfather’s living conditions back then were truly good.

A typical wealthy young master.

She also learned from Gu Qingfeng that when her grandfather and Great Grandma left the Gu Family, they had with them quite a lot of the then-circulating paper money, as well as many gold bars and gemstones…

Gu Qiaoqiao casually picked up the inkstone that her grandfather had used, which he had carved himself, bearing the inscription “Mountain Man.”

Her grandfather, too, must have missed home.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen the name Gu Dashan for himself.

However, regarding her grandfather taking the gold bars and such, Gu Qiaoqiao remained skeptical. She looked at Gu Qingfeng, “Are you sure it was my grandfather who took those things?”

Gu Qingfeng was taken aback, “Of course, it was Kunkun who took them; only he and his mother knew where the gold bars were kept.”
