Chapter 1008: Chapter 2955: Simple, Direct, and Effective!
The commotion caused by Beibei and Bao Bao’s silk ball tossing to recruit a husband was tremendous, and now the appearance of Gu Changsheng and Xuanyuan Mu interrupted the process. The people below the pavilion were already filled with righteous indignation!
"What’s going on? Is the silk ball being tossed or not?"
"What about the recruiting of a husband that was promised? Who are these people? How dare they interrupt the process?"
"Is this some kind of underhanded operation? Is this an underhanded operation?"
"Old Master Sun, don’t you give an explanation!"
"Recruiting a husband! Tossing the silk ball! Tossing the silk ball!"
"Recruiting a husband! Tossing the silk ball! Tossing the silk ball!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
Everyone below the pavilion had come for the silk ball tossing event to recruit a husband. Now that this event was nipped in the bud, how could they bear it?
Among them were those who had traveled from other cities, journeying thousands of miles just for the chance to become a noble retainer and avoid struggling for forty years!
So, seeing Gu Changsheng and Xuanyuan Mu’s arrival bringing the silk ball tossing to a halt, everyone started to complain...
"Are you two... Bao Bao and Beibei’s parents?" Old Master Sun, Sun Su, seeing the situation getting out of hand, finally mustered up the courage to speak...
Asked why he needed courage...
It was because the aura of this couple before him was overwhelming, standing beside them, Sun Su dared not speak at all, don’t you know?
"...Yes!" Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, glanced at Xuanyuan Mu, then nodded to Sun Su, thought for a moment, gathered his robes and bowed, saying, "I trouble the Family Head of the Sun family to take care of my daughters. Changsheng is grateful here..."
Gu Changsheng rarely bows to people...
However, regardless of whether the Sun family head indulged his daughters too much, Bao Bao and Beibei had been able to live so comfortably thanks to them. This point, Gu Changsheng was capable of distinguishing right from wrong...
"I wouldn’t dare! Madam is too polite. In fact, Bao Bao and Beibei are the ones taking care of the Sun family. It’s I, Sun, who should thank Madam for raising such wonderful daughters!" Sun Su didn’t dare to accept Gu Changsheng’s bow, quickly moving aside and speaking anxiously.
In fact, Bao Bao and Beibei indeed took great care of the Sun family...
Bao Bao and Beibei were sold to the Sun family by slave traders. Seeing that the two were pretty, Sun Su placed them in his legitimate son’s room. However, that only disciple was weak and ill, with not much time left. Thinking of this, Sun Su gazed at Gu Changsheng with even more gratitude...
Even Sun Su didn’t expect that his legitimate son, with the help of Bao Bao and Beibei, miraculously stood up. Not only that, but his body quickly returned to normal, which greatly shocked Sun Su. Upon inquiry, he found out it was Bao Bao and Beibei’s doing, and was instantly grateful, insisting on adopting the two children as goddaughters...
It’s just...
As for becoming goddaughters, Bao Bao and Beibei always said they’d only decide after consulting their parents...
However, Sun Su was thick-skinned, determined that Bao Bao and Beibei were not ordinary people, and thus shamelessly took it upon himself to claim the title of godfather to Bao Bao and Beibei...
"Nonetheless, Bao Bao and Beibei are doing well in the Sun family. Changsheng should thank the Family Head of the Sun family!" Seeing Sun Su’s reaction, Gu Changsheng chuckled lightly and, with a wave of his hand, a brocade box appeared in his palm. "This is a Yunyuan Pill, containing the cultivation level of a 60-year cycle. I observed the cultivation level of the Sun family head isn’t very deep, this pill can help you soar..."
A 60-year cycle?!!
"!!!" The head of the Sun family, upon hearing this, was instantly stunned and expressionless...
Don’t blame him for being expressionless...
Because...
Goodness, a 60-year cycle is 120 years!
Who is so extravagant to condense 120 years of cultivation into one pill?
years...
That really is...
Longevity!
"..." Gu Changsheng, seeing the head of the Sun family, Sun Su, expressionless, couldn’t help but blink an eye...
Could it be...
The gift was too light?
Thinking of it, it might be possible!
After all, to Gu Changsheng, this Yunyuan Pill wasn’t valuable at all. She had pockets full of them, and using it as a gift might indeed be a bit light...
"...And these as well!" Looking down at her daughters, who had evidently grown a little chubbier, Gu Changsheng raised her hand again. Several books appeared in her hand, and she said solemnly, "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. These are a few Cultivation Secret Manuals, and I’ll give them to the Sun family. If your family understands restraint and discretion, surely there will be a place for your family in the City in the Sky soon!"
If the Sun family doesn’t even understand discretion and arouses envy from others...
Then Gu Changsheng wouldn’t know what to say!
But looking at the family head of the Sun family, he’s smart and should understand the implication of her words. After all, possessing virtue is not a crime, is it?
City in the Sky?!!!
The Sun family head, upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, immediately fell to his knees with a thud...
City in the Sky!
As people of the Middle Realm, who wouldn’t know of the City in the Sky?
But knowing the City in the Sky doesn’t mean one has ever dared to aspire to it!
In fact, even as the family head of the Sun family in a medium-level city of the Middle Realm, Sun Su had never been to the City in the Sky because he had no eligibility, let alone dream of leading his family to have a place there...
To Patriarch Sun, this was simply fantastical!
"Ahem ahem!" Gu Changsheng saw that Patriarch Sun was kneeling so thoroughly, and couldn’t help but let out a fake cough, giving Xuanyuan Mu a slightly embarrassed look...
So...
Just now, he wasn’t actually disdainful of the lightness of the gift?
He was just scared silly, right?
Look at him...
Kneeling on the ground, with a wooden expression, no reaction at all...
As for why Patriarch Sun was expressionless...
God knows...
He was already so frightened that he didn’t know what expression to use to describe his current mood!
"Snap out of it, Old Master Sun!" Baby couldn’t stand it anymore, releasing his mother’s hand, he walked over and shook Sun Su’s arm, saying, "Look at you, just this little bit of courage, and you still want to be the godfather of me and Beibei? Hurry up, my mom is giving you something, aren’t you going to take it?"
As for the value of the gift...
Sorry...
That was never within Baby’s consideration!
Because, from a young age, Baby had seen countless treasures. The gift his mother was giving now was just ordinary in the eyes of Baby and Beibei...
"Ah? Oh..." Sun Su was brought back to his senses by Baby’s shaking, then hurriedly shook his head, saying, "No, no, this gift is too valuable, I can’t take it. I didn’t take care of you originally, instead, you helped our Sun family a lot. How can I shamelessly accept your thank you gift..."
Although Sun Su was a person who hadn’t been to the City in the Sky and hadn’t seen much of the world, at least he had principles, so...
Gu Changsheng’s extremely valuable thank you gift really scared Sun Su!
"You talk too much, since my mom gave it to you, just take it!" Baby rolled his eyes upon hearing this, snatched the Yunyuan Pill and martial arts secrets from his mother’s hand, stuffed them into Sun Su’s arms, and said, "Go back and tell your son that this is our farewell gift to him. Tell him to practice well, don’t always be sickly, and we’ll come back to visit him when we can!"
"Ah? Oh..." Sun Su nodded instinctively at this, but then felt something was off, "You’re leaving?"
Farewell gift!
Farewell gifts are naturally for farewells!
So...
Baby and Beibei, are they leaving?
Oh God!
If his precious son knew about this, he wouldn’t know how heartbroken he’d be...
"Yes, my mom and Uncle Wood have come, so naturally we’re leaving, we still have important matters to attend to!" Baby and Beibei nodded upon hearing this and said.
"Ah..." Patriarch Sun, holding the box of Yunyuan Pill and the secret manual, stood there dumbfounded...
"Can Patriarch Sun handle the aftermath of the scene below?" Gu Changsheng thought for a moment, then glanced at the scene under the pavilion and asked Patriarch Sun.
"Of course..." This time, Sun Su’s reaction was quick.
It’s just a recruitment problem that didn’t go through?
If Sun Su couldn’t handle such a small scene, he wouldn’t be fit to be the family head!
"That’s good!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng nodded, then slightly bowed to Patriarch Sun for farewell, "Then let us part ways here, there’s no need for Patriarch Sun to see us off..."
"Mmm mmm..." Sun Su nodded instinctively...
Then...
Then Sun Su saw Gu Changsheng and Xuanyuan Mu each holding a child by the hand, the four of them side by side, just rose into the air like that...
"!!!" Seeing this, the corner of Sun Su’s mouth twitched...
This...
Still talking about not sending them off...
Even if he wanted to send them off, he wouldn’t have the ability, would he?
"Go! Bring two boxes of silver ingots here!"
Wiping his face, Sun Su indicated that today he had broadened his horizons, witnessing someone like Gu Changsheng, who was born with Yunyuan Pills every sixty years cycle, and had manuals that could elevate people to the City in the Sky. After receiving such generous gifts from them, the aftermath work must be done well, right?
Far away, Gu Changsheng heard Sun Su’s words, and immediately a smile curved on his lips...
"Mom, why is Old Master Sun having people carry silver ingots?" Baby asked, baffled...
"To become The Spendthrift!" Gu Changsheng replied.
"The Spendthrift?" Baby was even more puzzled.
"Below the pavilion, it’s already chaotic. When he gives away his wealth, naturally things will become even more chaotic, and people will forget why they were causing the chaos in the first place, won’t they?" Gu Changsheng laughed lightly and said, "This kind of method, though simple and crude, is most effective!"
"Ah... I didn’t think Old Master Sun was so wasteful..." Baby marveled at this.
"Not as wasteful as you!" Hearing his daughter call someone else wasteful, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but interject...
If there’s any skill at being wasteful, Baby and Beibei would undoubtedly take the prize, wouldn’t they?
Of course, now wasn’t the time to talk about this, Gu Changsheng straightened his face, "Where did Gu Tianyao tell you to find Little Monk Bu Jie?"
