2683 Chapter 2682-fortune and misfortune
Gu Xin knew that the Wang family loved this son of theirs, otherwise, they wouldn’t have raised fatty Wang to be like this.
However, the person who loved her the most in this world was gone overnight. This was a devastating blow to anyone.
Fatty Wang was already married and had a son, but he still hadn’t learned how to take on responsibility, how to be an adult, because there would always be someone above him to support him, someone to shelter him from the wind and rain.
Gu Xin had once heard her grandparents talk about a person’s growth.
The luckiest thing was to grow up normally, doing whatever one was at any age, without experiencing any ups and downs, without experiencing any storms, and living an ordinary life until death.
The most unfortunate ones were people like fatty Wang, who had lived a smooth life for 20 years. Fate played a joke on him, making him lose everything that sheltered him from the wind and rain overnight, leaving him to bear it all alone.
There was also another kind that made people’s hearts ache. That was, at a young age, they understood the world, knew how to read people’s eyes, knew how to get along with people, knew how to restrain their temper, and lived with a mask on since young.
Grandpa and Grandma Gu had said that in the Gu family, if Gu shouxin didn’t turn back, no one knew what would happen to the second branch.
However, in the Gu family now, everyone grew up very normally and did the right things at the right age.
When he was young, he had his family to shelter him from the wind and rain. He grew up without any worries. In the process of growing up, he learned to take responsibility.
The two elders even said that even if the heavens wanted them to go to heaven and leave this world, they had nothing to worry about.
“This poor monk played chess with Lord Wang the entire afternoon. At night, Lord Wang went to the front hall to copy the Scriptures. Only at the hour of the morning did Sir Wang leave the front hall and return to the courtyard. They had planned to leave today and had even instructed their little disciple to call them if they did not make a move at dawn this morning. This morning at five o ‘clock, the little disciple went to knock on the door without even lighting up the lights in their courtyard. In the end, no one answered. The young disciple informed the disciple in charge of the visitors. When he came over to take a look, he discovered the tragedy. He immediately reported it to this penniless monk. After this poor monk came to take a look, I immediately had the martial monks of the temple ride down the mountain to inform Lord Xu. After that, he told the disciples not to run around and closed the temple.” The abbot continued, and then he looked at Lord Xu.
“When master Yuan He came, it was already seven o ‘clock in the morning, and this official just happened to wake up. I heard that something had happened to Lord Wang, so this official put on my clothes and went to see master Yuan He. After listening to the general idea, I remembered that the person guarding the city was working for you, Your Highness. So I made the decision to let Constable Jin rush to the capital immediately. After Constable Jin left, I called the Yamen’s bailiffs to come to Hongyuan temple. I’ve looked around and found that the monks in the temple didn’t move anything. Everything was normal. Thus, this official decided to have the bailiffs simply clean up Sir Wang and the others “bodies, and wait for them to return from guarding the city and come over with the princess.” Lord Xu said.
“In this period of time, has Lord Xu investigated the whereabouts of the people in the temple from last night after the Wang clan fell asleep to this morning before the incident?” Gu Xin asked.
“Princess, this official has investigated this. He had already ordered people to sort out the locations of everyone in the temple and had already recorded them. Princess, do you want to read it?” Lord Xu replied.
