Chapter 67 - Land
Chapter 67: Land
Carriages rarely came into the village of San Cha Kou. When the Zhou family’s carriage came in, it attracted a lot of people to watch.
Many people in the surrounding villages of the Zhou family town recognized the Zhou family’s carriage. The Master of the Zhou family had his own land in almost every village.
The coachman driving the carriage was lucky. He asked for directions and said that he was going to the Gu family.
The villagers showed him the direction.
In fact, Lu Zheng had already asked once when he rode his horse the last time he came, but he did not mention to his grandfather that he had been to San Cha Kou Village.
Therefore, Lucky and the housekeeper sitting with Lu Zheng in the carriage did not know that their young master knew the way.
To go from the village to Gu Xin’s house, one had to pass through the Gu family’s old house. Coincidentally, the villagers referred to the old house.
The villagers all felt that with Gu Shouxin’s personality as a gambler and drunkard, the Master of the Zhou family would not specially send people to look for him unless it was to collect debts.
“Young Master, we have arrived at the Gu family!” Lucky stopped the car at the entrance of the old house and happened to see Gu Shouli who was leaving. He asked and then turned around to call for people.
Gu Shouli did not leave immediately. He looked at the horse carriage in confusion.
He also knew the Zhou family’s carriage.
The second butler came out first. Lu Zheng followed behind.
“May I ask this…”
“I’m the Zhou Residence’s second butler. My surname is He. This is our Young Master.”
Butler He introduced.
“Why are the two of you here at my home?” Gu Shouli asked.
“We want to look for Gu Shouxin,” Butler He said.
“My second brother? May I know why Butler He and Young Master Zhou are looking for my second brother?” Gu Shouli was shocked. Could it be that his second brother had offended the Zhou family?
“There is something. We need to talk about it in person.” Butler He saw that Lu Zheng did not intend to speak, so he could only speak.
“In person! Then I’m sorry. My second brother is not at home. He went out,” Gu Shouli said.
“What about the rest of your second brother’s family?” Lu Zheng asked.
Gu Shouli looked at Lu Zheng, pursed his lips, and did not speak because he was not sure if it was because his second brother had offended this Young Master of the Zhou family and he had come to find trouble.
The Master of the Zhou family was good, but who knew what the younger generation was like?
The people in the courtyard heard the commotion outside and Gu Xianglan walked out.
“What’s the situation?” Gu Xianglan glanced at Lu Zheng and Butler He before asking her son.
“Mother, they are the Young Master and housekeeper of the Zhou family. They are here to look for Second Brother. I’ve already told them that Second Brother has gone out,” Gu Shouli said.
“Young Master Zhou, Butler He, my second son’s family has gone out. If you have any urgent matters, you can tell me. If you are not willing, you can come back the next day!” Gu Xianglan said.
“It’s not an urgent matter. It’s just that my grandfather wants to use the land under Gu Shouxin’s name to talk to him,” Lu Zheng said.
“Land? Master Zhou still lacks land?” Gu Xianglan asked in puzzlement.
“Yes.” Lu Zheng did not explain too much.
“Then I’m sorry. Although our Gu family has divided the second branch, this land has not been divided. Gu Shouxin still doesn’t have land,” Gu Xianglan said expressionlessly.
Lu Zheng’s eyes flashed.
Gu Xianglan had a hunch that this Young Master was not here to talk about land.
“Oh, then sorry to bother you!” Lu Zheng cupped his hands and turned to get into the carriage.
Butler He and Lucky did not understand what their Young Master was doing, so they could only follow.
“Mother, what are they doing? Even if Second Brother divided up the land, he could only get five or six mu. The Zhou family still lacks five or six mu of land?” Gu Shouli asked in confusion..
