“For so many years, you and your brother have treated Madam Gu as your biological grandmother… Sigh, I was also deceived by her. In the past, I always thought that she was very loving to Ah Ce and you siblings.”

The patriarch looked at Gu Yanfei almost breathlessly with a reserved expression.

Gu Yanfei smiled and looked at the patriarch with a very “simple” and “innocent” gaze. “Great-uncle, I’m young and don’t know this. As for what to do with this matter, I still have to rely on you to come up with a plan.”

She gently pushed this matter to the patriarch, to solve a big issue with little effort.

“…” The patriarch’s expression stiffened again, and thin cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.

He felt as if his heart was being squeezed in Gu Yanfei’s palm. He almost couldn’t look into her clear eyes.

The girl had a beautiful face and a smile like a flower. She was even more beautiful than the pink peaches that bloomed outside the window. Her eyes were extremely clear and bright, shining with a sharp light like the edge of a sword.

The patriarch’s heart suddenly constricted. Through the girl’s eyes, he couldn’t help but think of Gu Ce.

The patriarch was stunned for a long time before returning to his senses. He composed himself and hurriedly agreed. “Yanfei, tell your brother that I’ll definitely do this properly. Don’t worry.”

He comforted himself in his heart. At this point, the clan could only cut off their tails and survive. Madam Gu and Gu Jian had brought this upon themselves.

Gu Jian was crippled and hopeless, but Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei had a good future. It was obvious how to choose something beneficial to the clan.

“What are you saying, great-uncle? Why shouldn’t I worry?” Gu Yanfei tilted her little face and smiled innocently.

Only then did the patriarch realize that he had said something wrong. He hurriedly said, “I was clumsy with my words, I messed up. It’s been so many years. I should have fixed it long ago!”

Gu Yanfei smiled happily. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, great-uncle.”

Since it was over, Gu Yanfei directly served tea and sent the guests away.

The patriarch tactfully bade farewell and was sent out of the hall by Juan Bi.

The sun had almost set outside, and only the west sky still had a faint red glow. The sky was dark and yellow, and the crescent moon was a faint white as it looked down at all living beings.

After walking straight for hundreds of feet, the patriarch couldn’t help but wipe the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve. His back was long drenched in sweat.

He stopped under a locust tree and turned around to look in the direction of the hall with lingering fears.

The girl in the hall was drinking tea elegantly. Her slender figure looked especially weak under the contrast of the high-back chair, looking relaxed.

Recalling his conversation with Gu Yanfei just now, the patriarch was even more shocked. He was in his sixties, but he was completely led by the nose by a little girl who had just become an adult. All his worries were under the other party’s control.

From the beginning to the end, she never threatened or said bad words. She clearly wanted Madam Gu and Gu Jian to be expelled from the clan, but in the end, she made him take the initiative to take charge of this matter with a few words. He had to be grateful that she had come up with this idea for the clan.

Sigh!

The patriarch sighed in his heart and told himself that he had to make a decision. For the sake of his race, he had to settle this matter.

The patriarch turned around, gritted his teeth secretly, and left the Gu residence in a hurry.

It was already late today. The patriarch returned to the residence first. The next morning, he brought his eldest son, Gu Chou, to visit a few respected elders in the family one by one. Some of them lived in the capital, while others lived in the suburbs. The father and son spent an entire day walking around these families and were extremely tired.

At dawn the next day, he and his eldest son brought the elders of the clan to the Gu residence again. The patriarch took the initiative to correct the situation and reprimand Little Qi for occupying the magpie’s nest. Gu Jian wasn’t a member of the Gu family at all. The second branch should be removed from the Gu family register and become a proper family.

In just an hour, the patriarch presided over the modification of the family tree and removed the names of Madam Gu, Gu Jian, and Gu Yunrong from the family tree.

When the modified family tree was sealed in the ancestral hall again, the patriarch was relieved, and most of the huge rock in his heart fell.

After the elders surrounded Gu Yanfei and said a few intimate and friendly words, they bid farewell first. The patriarch and his son stayed until the end. When they were in the carriage outside the door, the patriarch consciously made a promise:

“Yanfei, I’ll go to the Northern Town Bureau later and see if I can meet Madam Gu and Gu Jian and tell them about this.”

Initially, the patriarch didn’t want to go to an unlucky place like the imperial prison, nor was he confident that he could definitely enter. However, he had to end this matter quickly and let Gu Yuan and his sister see the sincerity of the clan.

When Gu Yuan returned that afternoon, everything was set in stone..
