Chapter 573: All of Them Were Gluttons (3)

Both elderly’s work was going smoothly. They were more energetic after their social status changed.

The weather was getting colder gradually. Gu Qingyao had been staying in the capital for one month.

It would be Chinese New Year in two months’ time.

Was it time for her to head back home?

She would take half a month to travel. There would not be much time left for Chinese New Year after she reached home.

Time really flew.

She was going to turn eighteen next year.

Gu Qingyao looked at the letter in her hand and smiled.

Mo Beihan wrote in the letter to ask her when she was going to head back. He emphasised many times in the letter that he missed her.

He definitely wanted her to head home as early as possible to prepare for the wedding next year. He had been waiting for that day all this time.

Gu Qingyao had no reason to hesitate. She was going to be eighteen and also looked forward to marrying Mo Beihan. She had no reason not to go back when Chinese New Year was approaching.

Her teacher’s job was stable now. They were respected by others for their skills. With Mo Beihan’s presence, the Mo family would definitely take care of her teacher secretly.

Gu Qingyao decided to head back home and started to pack her luggage.

But she was not going to rush in one or two days. She needed to bid farewell to some of her old friends.

She definitely needed to tell the three elderly from the black market. The three gluttons would be depressed once she left.

Then it would be Grandma Mo.

She always came over to find her. She would use all kinds of reasons to visit her frequently, but all her excuses were very unconvincing.

First, Gu Qingyao went to find the three elderly in the black market. She packed all the cooked food and went over at night.

The three of them all needed to work during the day, and there were too many people in the day. Gu Qingyao usually went over at night and brought them dinner.

She still went to Elder Yang’s family. He seemed to be the leader among the three.

He was the one with the highest social status in the past. His family was very wealthy, and he had many connections.

Though his family, wealth and social status were gone, and he needed to clean the toilet here, his connections were still present.

That was the reason why he was safe over the years. Though his living condition was poor and he had to clean the toilet, he was not disturbed by others over the years. It was rare that someone would come and find him trouble.

He lived peacefully with the help of the black market. He exchanged for food and drinks with his treasures.

It was difficult to live such a life for him.

He was a landlord and a capitalist in the past. He even went overseas. In other people’s opinion, he was an extremely terrible person.

All the three elderly had some connections. They had helped each other all these years and survived till today. All of them were very cunning.

When Gu Qingyao arrived, the three of them were together. But they did not seem to be very happy.

She could tell the rage from Elder Yang’s face.

Gu Qingyao was stunned, “Grandpa Yang, what happened?”

Did something happen to them?

Elder Yang took a glimpse at his house and pursed his lips.

Gu Qingyao looked towards the old house and a head peeked out. It was another elderly. He was skinny and was not as tall and strong as the other three.

That’s right, tall and strong.

Relatively.

But this elderly looked very educated. He appeared to be weak, but she could tell the difference between him and the other three elderly.

But the way he looked at his basket was the same as the rest.

When Gu Qingyao looked over, he smiled at her, trying to please her.

Gu Qingyao: “…”
