Chapter 62 - 62 That's Right
62 That’s Right
After Gu Yanfei left Cai Ling Courtyard, she brought Juan Bi to the west storeroom in the inner courtyard.
Granny Shi, who was guarding the storeroom, saw that Gu Yanfei only had the key in her hand and did not read the cards. She was shocked and wanted to stop her, but she could not stop Juan Bi, who was born to be extremely strong.

Gu Yanfei instructed Juan Bi to unlock the door to the west storeroom.
When he pushed open the door, he was greeted by a pungent musty smell. The storeroom was extremely cold.
Juan Bi led the way in with the lanterns. She quickly lit seven or eight lanterns, illuminating the two-room western storeroom.
The storeroom was filled with old wooden boxes and rows of shelves.
Gu Yanfei did not know where exactly the things she was looking for were placed. She looked at the boxes one by one and matched the items in the booklet.
She instructed Juan Bi to make the corresponding marks on some of the checked boxes and asked her to move all the jewelry out of the west storeroom.
Heavy old boxes were placed on the stone brick floor outside the storeroom one after another with all the lids opened.
The gold and silver jewels glittered in the candlelight of the lantern.
Gu Yanfei reported the names in the booklet and asked Juan Bi to find and check them one by one from these boxes.
When she was halfway through, there was a noisy commotion outside the nearby archway and many people seemed to be heading their way.
“Madam, the Second Lady is inside!” The cold wind brought Granny Shi’s anxious voice.
Juan Bi looked in the direction of the voice and saw two old women walking over with a palanquin on their shoulders. Madam Gu was sitting on the palanquin, wearing a thick rust-colored cloak and still looking haggard with the black embroidered cloth on her forehead.
“Gu Yanfei!” Madam Gu shouted word by word. Her voice was still a little hoarse and filled with surging anger.
“Bang!”
The sound of a wooden clapper came from afar, its sound extremely penetrating in the quiet night.
Only then did Gu Yanfei casually look up from the booklet and look at Madam Gu, who was four or five steps away.
The golden light shone on an exquisite and beautiful face.
In the night wind, the girl in thin clothes did not seem to feel the cold at all. Her clothes fluttered and her eyes shone.
The palanquin stopped 10 feet away. Madam Gu, who was sitting on it, looked down at Gu Yanfei and questioned in an unfriendly tone, “Where did you get the key from? Did you cause trouble with Rong’er?”
Madam Gu actually already had an answer in her heart and her heart had already begun aching for Rong’er.
Rong’er was so outstanding and had been pampered since she was young. However, because of Gu Yanfei’s appearance, she had lost everything overnight.
Rong’er was a blessed and magnanimous child.
Compared to her future glory, she did not care about these external things at all. However, she had still called them her parents for so many years, so how could she leave their relationship behind just like that without leaving some memories?
After the old women placed the palanquin on the ground, Madam Gu stood up from the palanquin and glared at Gu Yanfei with a threatening gaze. She said coldly, “Hand over the key to the storeroom!”
“Key?”
Gu Yanfei took out a copper key from her sleeve pocket and shook it in her hand. A faint smile appeared on her lips.
“Give it to me quickly!” Madam Gu’s burning gaze was immediately glued to the key.
Gu Yanfei moved and slowly took a few steps closer to Madam Gu. The key in her hand approached Madam Gu’s palm…
Madam Gu’s eyes lit up even more, and her right palm reached forward eagerly.
When the key was in Madam Gu’s palm, Gu Yanfei stopped. The copper key stopped only an inch away from Madam Gu.
Gu Yanfei calmly met Madam Gu’s eyes. Her eyes were as clear as water, and her thin dress fluttered in the night breeze, like a night cloud blooming under the moon.
She smiled and suddenly said, “I’ve found the jade pendant that the British Duchess wants.”
What?! Madam Gu’s pupils constricted uncontrollably, and the corners of her eyes trembled slightly. She could not control the subtle changes in her expression at all.
Gu Yanfei understood Madam Gu’s expression and took another step closer to her, stopping only two feet away from her face.
She smiled, her eyes bright and alert. Her elegant and otherworldly temperament was difficult to look at. She was calm and confident, as if she knew everything.
She flicked her sleeve, and her wide cuffs floated like clouds.
In the next moment, a muffled thunder suddenly exploded in the sky, shocking everyone with its loud rumble.
Madam Gu staggered and fell onto the palanquin behind her in a slightly sorry state. She was instantly shorter than Gu Yanfei and her aura had mostly disappeared.
The muffled thunder came too suddenly. Madam Gu and the others subconsciously looked up at the night sky and saw the moon in the sky.
The cold and clear winter night seemed to have the smell of sand in the air that made it difficult to breathe.
Madam Gu felt her heart constrict violently, and she was still in shock.
It was so quiet that she could hear her slightly heavy breathing.
Gu Yanfei looked down at Madam Gu, who had fallen onto the chair. A little talisman ash floated out of her sleeve.
The night wind swept up the talisman ash and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After a few breaths of silence, Gu Yanfei sighed and said, “Although the Gu family never raised me, now that I’m back, I’m tied together with the Gu family.”
The girl’s slow voice seemed to come from the clouds above the nine heavens, sounding calm, detached, and indifferent. There was an extreme rationality and inexplicable dignity in her words.
“…” Madam Gu was stunned for a moment. She was uneasy and her mind was in a mess.
“My surname is Gu, and my brother’s surname is also Gu.” Gu Yanfei softened her tone, making one’s thoughts be drawn to her.
Madam Gu did not speak for a long time, her heartstrings swaying from side to side.
Yes, Gu Yanfei was right. Benefits were the best rope to tie each other up…
The swaying trees above cast shadows on her pale face, making her old eyes look extinguished.
“What do you think, Madam?” Gu Yanfei asked softly. Her voice was soft and clear, like a clear spring flowing into Madam Gu’s heart.
In the cold wind, the sleeves of a young girl in plain clothes fluttered, as if she was in an ethereal mountain and was as pure as an immortal.
Madam Gu could not help but nod in response to her question.
That’s right. If the Gu family was good, Gu Yanfei would be good.
It was for the good of the Gu family, and also for her own good!
After Gu Yanfei left Cai Ling Courtyard, she brought Juan Bi to the west storeroom in the inner courtyard.
Granny Shi, who was guarding the storeroom, saw that Gu Yanfei only had the key in her hand and did not read the cards. She was shocked and wanted to stop her, but she could not stop Juan Bi, who was born to be extremely strong.
