Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside
Chapter 234 Reunion

Chapter 234: Chapter 234 Reunion

This matter all started because of Li Shuangxi.

After Mrs. Li died on the escape route from famine, Old Master Li feared he too would die on the road, so he sexually abused all of the unmarried maids in the Li Family.

Li Shuangxi was able to escape misfortune because of Li Daxi.

After knowing Old Master Li’s intentions, Li Daxi found a fortune-teller among the fleeing refugees, provided him with food and water, and had him tell Old Master Li that Li Shuangxi and he were dragon and phoenix twins with deep blessings, and were celestial children descended from heaven. As long as they remained virgins, they could protect the people around them as well as the Li Family.

The fortune-teller also exaggerated some dangerous incidents that the Li Family encountered on the escape route, adding fuel to the fire: "Old Master Li, your family’s escape from these calamities was all thanks to the efforts of the Li Shuangxi siblings."

The people of Great Chu believe in this, and Old Master Li, being afraid of death, thus did not touch Li Shuangxi.

But after settling down, Old Master Li thought, since Li Shuangxi is a blessed person, wouldn’t the good fortune transfer to him if he slept with her?

Elder Li Si got wind of this and also wanted a share of the good fortune, and father and son were preparing to sleep with Li Shuangxi.

Elder Li Si was an idiot. He thought Li Daxi would be delighted for his sister to serve their father and son, even telling Li Daxi: "Once this is done, my dad will take your sister as a concubine, and your whole family can just wait to enjoy the good fortune."

Enjoy good fortune my ass!

This was precisely what Li Daxi feared and wanted to prevent, but this time he failed. Li Daxi could only fight against Elder Li Si and his father.

However, with the Protector of the Li Family around, Li Daxi was captured and his hand was brutally broken.

Seeing her own brother being caught, Li Shuangxi also became ruthless and cursed Old Master Li and Li Si: "If you father and son dare to touch me, I will kill myself immediately! As a ghost, I’ll curse your Li Family day and night to have no descendants, your wealth scattered, and you father and son unable to live like humans, bedridden for the latter half of your lives!"

Because Li Shuangxi was one of a set of dragon and phoenix twins, the whole Li Family believed she was a person of good fortune, and there was also the matter with the fortune-teller, so Old Master Li feared her curse and did not dare touch her.

But Elder Li Si, being young and vigorous, couldn’t swallow this insult, so he came up with the idea of sending Li Shuangxi to a brothel to suffer: "Hmph, Li Shuangxi, you’re impressive! I won’t touch you; I will send you to a brothel to be ridden by thousands!"

Elder Li Si said and did just that, immediately calling servants to take Li Shuangxi to the brothel to receive guests.

Li Duofu and Gu Daya learned of this matter and hurriedly tried to prevent it, but Elder Li Si was shameless and intended to also send Gu Daya to the brothel.

However, he thoroughly hated Li Daxi, so before sending Gu Daya mother and daughter to the brothel, he first sent Li Daxi, Li Duofu, and Li Anzi to the government office, to have them sent to work in the mines.

Li Anzi had a lame leg, and the government office staff, worried that he would slow down the journey, did not take him. Thus, Li Anzi was sold by the Li Family’s servants to a broker and, by a twist of fate, was bought by Jiang Jiao and sent to the Gu Family.

When Gu Jinli heard about this, she was furious. The Li Family father and son enjoyed provoking, did they? She would give the father and son a stimulating gift—a big surprise!

Afterwards, Gu Jinli began preparing to take revenge on the Li Family father and son, and by the time she was ready, Gu Dashan and the others had also rescued Li Duofu and his son.

Gu Dashan and the others came back the next afternoon, and as soon as they arrived at the Jiang Residence, Gu Dashan took Li Duofu and son to see Gu Daya.

Seeing her man and son, Gu Daya cried tears of joy: "Dad, Daxi, you’ve finally come back."

Li Duofu wept, comforting Gu Daya with his words, "Mother, don’t cry anymore, father and son are well now, it’s Uncle who saved us. That Master Qi also said, he’ll go to the government office and get our household registration done for us. Once we have our household registration, we can settle in Tianfu County. From then on, we’ll be considered law-abiding citizens, and our family will never be separated again."

In Great Chu, household registration was strictly managed, and for a family like Li Duofu’s to acquire one was typically very difficult.

But Master Qi was a Scholar, and his elder brother was a Capital Official. He managed to secure an identity for Li Duofu’s family—that of servants of the Qi Family. Now, with the Qi Family’s mercy, they had been freed, and as long as the head of the household stepped in to assist with the household registration, it could be easily accomplished.

"Really? When can we get the household registration?" All her life, Gu Daya had dreamed of her entire family being restored to their status as law-abiding citizens. As servants, the life and death, honor and disgrace of her family were all at the whims of the head of the household. Her Shuangxi had almost been ruined by father and son of the Li Family, and she never wanted to live that kind of life again.

Li Daxi said, "That Master Qi has already gone to handle it, he said the household registration would be brought here by tomorrow at the latest."

"That’s good, that’s really good." Gu Daya wiped her tears and upon seeing Li Daxi’s hand, her tears fell again: "Daxi, how is your hand?"

Li Daxi replied, "Mother, don’t cry. Uncle Wang has already gone to summon the doctor and the doctor will soon come to treat your son’s injuries."

Then he looked towards his sister, Li Shuangxi, and asked, "Sister... Are you alright?"

Li Shuangxi knew what he wanted to inquire about and replied with a smile, "I’m fine, sister. It was Uncle and Xiao Yu who saved me and mother."

Li Shuangxi recounted the ordeal of herself and her mother being sent to Yingxian Square by Elder Li Si, and Gui Dashan bringing people to rescue them.

Upon hearing this, Li Daxi wished he could devour the flesh of Elder Li Si and his son.

Turning towards Gu Dashan, he knelt down with a thump, "Uncle, you saved our entire family’s lives. For the rest of our lives, our whole family will toil like oxen and horses to repay your great kindness!"

Gu Daya also pulled Li Shuangxi, Li Anzi, and knelt down with Li Duofu, "Big brother, I am incompetent and never wanted to be a burden to you, but I have become an encumbrance to you, I am sorry."

The reason she had fled with Qi Panzi wasn’t just out of fear that Ms. Pan would sell her to an indecent place, but also to avoid being a drag on Gu Dashan.

Her biological mother only left behind her and her older brother. She wanted her big brother to marry and live a good life, not be dragged down by her. Thus, upon finding out that Ms. Pan was seeking to sell her off, she resolutely fled with Qi Panzi.

She didn’t want her big brother to risk his life for her.

He couldn’t beat Ms. Pan, nor could he save her. To lay down his life for her would only end in death!

"We are siblings, and it’s my duty to take care of you. Don’t talk about this anymore, get up," Gu Dashan reached to grab Gu Daya’s hand, trying to pull her up, but Gu Daya stayed kneeling, refusing to rise.

She told Li Daxi and the others, "Kowtow to your uncle, you must all remember your uncle’s grace for your entire lives!"

"Yes, Mother!"

Bang bang bang~

Li Daxi, Li Shuangxi took the lead in kowtowing to Gu Dashan, and seeing this, Li Anzi quickly followed suit. The three siblings solemnly gave Gu Dashan nine kowtows before they stopped.

Gu Daya and Li Duofu also kowtowed to Gu Dashan, and after that, the whole family stood up.

"The doctor is here," announced Wang Yongfu, who had gone with the Jiang Family’s Protector to call upon the doctor. As he spoke, he had already brought the doctor to the outside of the guest room.
