Chapter 570: Search for Me

Gu Yuqing shook her head and said, "I still don't know. I didn't dare tell him. Whether by letter or phone call, it's not convenient to discuss this matter. I can't let your father's situation affect your brother's future."

Ding Surong's face looked very ugly: "You think if you don't say it, the matter won't reach the army? What future does my brother have left? Our family is finished."

With a father undergoing labor reform, what good outcome could their children have?

Now it seemed that her mistaken marriage to Liu Jiantong had turned out to be a good thing: "Mom, stop talking for now. Quickly pack up the valuable things in the house and send them away to hide. Since my father has had this happen, I fear those we offended before will kick us when we're down."

Gu Yuqing finally reacted: "Yes, yes, yes, you're right. We can't just sit and wait to be struck."

She turned and walked toward the bedroom she lived in. First, she took a handbag out of the cabinet, then took a wooden box from under the bed and put it inside. After that, she took more than twenty small gold bars from the shelf under the cabinet, along with some jewelry, and packed them all into the handbag: "Surong, this is all our family's assets. Hurry and go to your cousin-uncle's house and put these things there first."

How could Ding Surong agree? "Mom, are you crazy? How can you put such important things at your cousin-uncle's place? It's better to give them to me to keep safe."

Gu Yuqing felt somewhat troubled: "But..."

She had just wanted to refute when Ding Surong interrupted her: "Mom, look at what time it is. If you put these things at your cousin-uncle's, what if they develop evil intentions? You'll regret it later. Rest assured, if you put them with me, it will be absolutely safe."

But as soon as she finished speaking, the main door was slapped with loud cracks: "Open the door."

The mother and daughter were startled. Ding Surong reacted first: "No good. Someone has come to the door. They're probably here for the things in the house."

Gu Yuqing panicked, looking at the handbag on the bed: "What do we do? What do we do with these things?"

Ding Surong said anxiously: "Is there anywhere else in the house to hide things?"

Gu Yuqing shook her head: "No."

Remembering something, she quickly took the gold bars and jewelry she had packed and put them back under the shelf. Then she took the money notes out of the small wooden box, divided them into two parts, and handed one part to Ding Surong: "Quick, pack them up."

After speaking, she tucked her autumn shirt inside her pants. She left only a few money notes in the small wooden box and stuffed the rest into her autumn shirt. She put on an outer jacket over it, then placed the wooden box back in its original spot.

Just as she finished doing this, someone had already climbed over the courtyard wall and entered the yard.

Hearing the sound, Gu Yuqing reacted quickly and hugged Ding Surong: "Daughter, Mom's life is bitter. That ungrateful father of yours actually did such a pig-and-dog-like thing behind my back. How are we supposed to live from now on?"

Ding Surong was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and cooperated: "Mom, don't be like this. You still have your brother and me. We'll just pretend he doesn't exist."

Gu Yuqing cried even harder: "But this matter is too shameful. Ever since this happened, the way the neighbors look at me has changed. It's truly shameful."

"Mom, this isn't your fault. We are all victims. We can only blame my father and that shameless woman. By the way, who is that woman? Just wait until I go to her door and tear her apart."

The people rushing in outside heard these words and felt some sympathy for the mother and daughter.

However, the leader of the group would not let it go like that. He kicked the door open with a kick: "Ding Youwen, that hypocritical scoundrel, confessed that there are many good things in the house. Search it."
