Chapter 481: Doing Good Deeds
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan noticed an interesting phenomenon regarding the owners of these invitations; most of them were unfamiliar to her.
Upon a moment’s thought, the reason became clear.
Those who were familiar with her or, more accurately, those who associated with the original Gu Lingxue, often engaged in ridiculing her. Naturally, they didn’t dare to come to her doorstep and seek trouble.
Therefore, the owners of the invitations, despite coming from prestigious families, were relatively unfamiliar to her.
Given her lack of leisure and familiarity, she politely declined their invitations.
While these individuals felt disappointed at being turned down, not a single one dared to voice any complaints.
They may have been disheartened, but upon hearing that other invitations had also been declined, they found a semblance of balance in their hearts.
In this context, Tang Shijun appeared rather exceptional.
Only she could casually enter the gates of the Jun residence.
This attracted the envy of many young men and women from noble families.
At this moment, Tang Shijun was sitting in the garden of the Jun residence, eating spiritual fruits while conversing with Gu Qingluan.
Tang Shijun was well aware of the expressions and attitudes of those noble families. She had her own group of sisters, and some of them had specifically sought her out to ask her to help them make connections.
Tang Shijun refused not because she feared that Gu Qingluan would be stolen away, but because when she had initially formed a relationship with Gu Qingluan, her sisters had disapproved, leading to some alienation. Now, seeing Gu Qingluan’s exceptional status, they wanted to build connections. She found their actions quite absurd.
She ran to Gu Qingluan to inform her of these people’s intentions.
If those people were trying to establish a connection with Qingluan in her name, there was no need to pay them any attention.
Gu Qingluan chuckled. “Did you come here just to tell me this?”
“Erm, not just that.” Tang Shijun had already eaten plenty of spiritual fruits, and her stomach was full, but her hand couldn’t stop reaching for more. When she saw Gu Qingluan’s meaningful gaze, her cheeks immediately turned red. “These spiritual fruits are just too delicious. I haven’t had them for several days, and I’ve been craving them.”
“If you like them, I’ll have someone pick more for you to take home later.”
The spiritual fruits had been planted by Gu Qingluan in the Jun family’s backyard when she returned.
The spiritual energy there was denser than in other places, and after setting up a few gathering arrays, the spiritual energy became even more concentrated.
Later, with the assistance of the rescued women from the Fifth Prince’s residence, the spiritual fruits thrived even better.
Now, the spiritual fruits had fully grown, possessed an exquisite taste, were plump with moisture, and brimming with spiritual energy. Once someone tasted them, they couldn’t stop.
Tang Shijun smiled radiantly. “How can I refuse such a kind offer? Since it’s your sincere gesture, I wouldn’t want to decline.”
“Hahaha!” Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but laugh.
Tang Shijun coughed lightly, trying to conceal her laughter, and then glanced around, “Why don’t I see Xiaonan and Yuanxi?”
“They are currently involved in something significant.”
“Something significant? What could it be?” Tang Shijun asked curiously.
Gu Qingluan proceeded to tell her about what Xiaonan and Yuanxi were preparing.
Tang Shijun was amazed when she finished listening, “Xiaonan and Yuanxi are truly remarkable! Of course, Qingluan, you’re even more remarkable for raising two intelligent and kind-hearted sons.”
A gentle smile touched the corners of Gu Qingluan’s lips.
In this lifetime, having Xiaonan and Yuanxi as her sons was her greatest fortune.
“They are doing good deeds. Can I join them?”
Gu Qingluan replied, “You’ll have to ask them about it. I believe they probably won’t refuse.”
“Where are they? I’ll go find them right now!” Tang Shijun exclaimed eagerly.
Gu Qingluan provided her with the location, and Tang Shijun hurriedly made her way there.
Gu Xiaonan was conducting a free medical consultation, while Yuanxi was distributing congee to help the needy.
Their plans had been well thought out in advance, and with Gu Qingluan’s resources and connections, they were able to put their plans into action.
With Tang Shijun joining in, both Gu Xiaonan and Yuanxi readily agreed.
With one more person, they could provide even more help to those in need.
They set up their operation outside the gates of the Jun residence.
After two days of preparation, they finally began their “business.”
Word had spread two days prior, so on this day, a large number of people arrived, drawn by their reputation..
