Chapter 5838 Undeterred

"Hey, I'll go right away."

Shuhua stood up, tucked in the quilt for Gu's mother, and then turned around and left the house.

Before the stick of incense was burned, Father Gu came back.

He didn't walk back by himself, but was carried back by Old Uncle Gen's son. Old Uncle Gen trotted behind him, supporting Father Gu with his hands, because as soon as he let go, the unconscious Father Gu would slide off his back.

Come down.

After entering the courtyard gate, several maids and servants at home exclaimed in surprise and made noisy noises all the way to the backyard.

"My dear Master Ditian, what's going on here? You walked out so well, why do you come back like this?"

Gu's mother heard the noise and was helped out of the house by Shuhua. She happened to see Uncle Gen's son carrying Gu's father into the house next door.

Father Gu was lying on his back, his eyes tightly closed. His face was as yellow as the yellow paper, without any trace of human color.

Gu's mother screamed and staggered into the house after her.

Father Gu was lying on the bed. Although he was awake, his whole soul was gone.

He stared straight at the ceiling of the tent, unable to even pour in the brown sugar water.

No matter how much Gu's mother cried or shouted, Gu's father just ignored her, as if he was stupid.

After asking Uncle Gen and his son, Shuhua found out that the jewelry that Gu's father had brought out, as well as several antique vases he had collected over the years, had been stolen halfway through.

"It's just such a small amount. You have three people and six eyes. Why did you just give it to someone else?" Gu's mother roared hysterically.

Uncle Gen was so frightened that he quickly pulled his son to his knees, buried his head on the ground and knocked hard, "It's because we were useless and didn't keep an eye on..."

On the bed, Father Gu suddenly raised his finger.

"Aunt, uncle has reacted!" Shuhua reminded quickly.

Gu's mother quickly turned around, lying on the bedside and holding Gu's father's hand: "You goddammit, tell me quickly what's going on. Where are the things? Where have they been done?"

Father Gu's eyes turned to Mother Gu's side with difficulty, and the corners of his mouth trembled. Before he could speak, two lines of old tears rolled out.

"...I'm useless, I'm useless. I was greedy and believed the words of a liar..."

As Gu's father told him intermittently, Gu's mother and Shuhua finally understood what was going on.

Father Gu wanted to sell those things at a good price. He thought that the pawnshops and banks on the street that had signs of serious business might have heard about the Gu family and knew that the Gu family was in urgent need of money and deliberately lowered their prices.

.

So Gu's father confirmed his guess after visiting two houses to try.

Suddenly, Father Gu thought of an underground bank on the outskirts of the city. It was said that the man behind the bank was named Xu, and he was a man of both black and white. People on the street called him Brother Mang, and he was a bloody man.

So Gu's father wanted to go to Xu Mang's underground bank to try his luck. But Xu Mang was not there, and the person who received her was a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man claimed that he was the acting shopkeeper there, and brought Gu's father and Uncle Gen's father and son.

Please go to the inner room in the backyard to greet you and look at the goods.

"The man saw my goods and the price was still very low. I didn't want to sell it to him anymore, so I got up, packed my things and left."

"After much thought, I planned to send it to a pawn shop, but when I took it out, all the items inside had been dropped. They were all scraps of copper and iron. The two antiques had not been dropped, but the two old men at the pawn shop

After the master saw it, he said it was a fake. I spent a lot of money to buy a fake and kept it at home like a treasure..."
