The siblings knelt and kowtowed to the memorial tablet. Finally, they inserted the incense pillars in their hands into the three-legged bronze cauldron in front of them.

The atmosphere was solemn.

“Okay!” The patriarch stroked his beard at the side and smiled as if the dust had settled. “Your grandmother is in heaven. Seeing the harmonious relationship between you siblings and Yuan’er’s bright future, she can probably rest in peace.”

The elders echoed one after another and surrounded Gu Yuan to remind him not to let down his ancestors’ expectations. The atmosphere was harmonious.

Gu Yanfei stood in front of the incense table and raised her hand to gently brush past the tablet with the name “Qi Zhaoning” written on it. Her fingers brushed past the white light lingering on the tablet, and she carefully felt the weak soul.

She could imagine that her grandfather must have put in unimaginable effort to keep this soul and find this chance of survival for their biological grandmother.

Originally, her grandfather should have wanted his descendants’ incense to nourish her grandmother’s soul bit by bit. This was a good method, but it would take at least a hundred years for her soul to condense.

And a better way would be to use the “real name”.

The only way was to let the substitute obtain her name and identity. Her name had to appear in the world openly and be recorded in the family tree and tablet so that future generations would remember her name.

Only in this way could the substitute break free from the shackles of the “Substitute Technique” and obtain a true new life.

Like now.

She only needed to nurture her for a few more days, and her grandmother would be able to return to the cycle of reincarnation.

When Gu Yanfei retracted her right hand and turned around, she met Gu Yuan’s smiling eyes not far away. The young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes waved at her from a few steps away. “Sister, let’s go.”

Gu Yanfei smiled sweetly and quickly followed Gu Yuan and the others. Her clothes fluttered as she walked leisurely.

After everyone left the ancestral hall, the sun was already halfway down. The sky was filled with colorful clouds, as if they were woven into brocade.

“It’s really been hard on Uncle and the elders today.” Gu Yuan cupped his hands at the patriarch and the elders. His actions were appropriate and neither servile nor overbearing. “Please stay in the residence and help manage the separation.”

“Now, only my sister and I depend on each other in the eldest branch. We still have to rely on the family for many things.”

Gu Yuan was usually a man of few words, but he wasn’t wooden. He had been in the army for so many years and had seen all kinds of people and experienced all kinds of scenes. How could he not understand the ways of the world? He was just too lazy to do so in the past.

In the eyes of the patriarch and the elders, they only felt that Gu Yuan used to be young and unruly. Now that he had experienced this storm, Gu Yuan had grown up and matured.

The patriarch agreed readily. He sighed a little in his heart, but he admired Gu Yuan more.

Gu Yanfei, who was two steps behind, walked to Gu Yuan’s side and said generously, “Uncle, such a big thing has happened to the Gu family. In the future, the family should be united. Big Brother told me that I’ve been taken care of by the elders in the family since 1 was young. I’ll remember it at all times.”

She first said some dignified and beautiful words before changing the topic. “Big Brother has been nagging me to buy a family plot and build a family school for the family.”

The patriarch and elders were all shocked and overjoyed. They all looked at Gu Yuan eagerly, surprised that he was so considerate.

Gu Yanfei continued, “Although my Gu family started with martial arts, we are generals in troubled times and civil officials in prosperous times. In the future, if His Majesty wants to choose talents, he will definitely promote civil officials.”

“Only if all the branches in the family are good will our Gu family be good.”

Her words made the patriarch’s heart surge and his blood boil. The other elders seemed to have seen the day their children and grandchildren were ranked on the roll of honor. All of them looked forward to it.

Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at his sister even more gently. He continued tacitly, “Uncle, 1 want to take out 10% of my assets to buy these for the family…”

“Good child, you and your brother are both thoughtful children.” The patriarch was overjoyed and interrupted Gu Yuan anxiously. He was full of praise for Gu Yanfei and Gu Yuan and wished he could worship the siblings.

Their Gu family did have a title, but it belonged to Gu Yao and Gu Xuan. The other clansmen were well-fed and worry-free, but not all of them were rich. There was no shortage of children who couldn’t afford to study and orphans who had no one to rely on.

In the future, with the addition of Gu Yuan’s sacrificial fields and family schools, it would be very different. The sacrificial fields could compensate the lonely old and raise orphans, and the family school could nurture the family disciples. It would also prevent those talented and smart Gu family disciples from being buried because their families were too poor to afford books.

The elders also whispered to each other about this matter. Everyone’s eyes were shining brightly, and they were in high spirits. In fact, most of the gloominess of the Gu family being robbed today has been swept away.

Gu Yuan continued, “Uncle, you’re too kind.”

“We’re all from the same family. We’re all bound for prosperity. The prosperity of the family is the long-term way for the family to thrive.”

These words were spoken with righteousness. Every word was for the sake of the family, making the patriarch and elders feel even more pleased.

The patriarch patted Gu Yuan’s shoulder with a gratified expression and promised with a bright smile, “Yuan’er, don’t worry. Do your job well. We will keep an eye on everything else.”

Originally, the patriarch would stay in the residence to keep an eye on the separation of the family so that nothing would go wrong. Now, he was even more concerned and was just short of swearing to the heavens.

The other elders were unwilling to fall behind and agreed.

To them, this indeed involved their own interests.

Today, Gu Yuan personally promised to give 10% of the assets to the family, so the assets Gu Yuan received would definitely affect how much “that io%” was..
