The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

As she entered this quiet house, the first thing that caught her eye was the children running and playing in the spacious yard.

These children held various toys made of wood in their hands, with extremely happy smiles on their faces, as bright and dazzling as the most beautiful flowers in spring.

At this moment, the children spotted Uncle Fang's figure and rushed over like arrows, shouting:

"Uncle Fang, Uncle Fang, you're here to see us!"

Their voices are clear and melodious, like the sound of yellow orioles singing in the valley, full of childlike innocence and joy.

However, these innocent children had no idea why the adults suddenly asked them to leave the familiar and warm mountain village and follow a group of strangers on a long journey to this completely unfamiliar place.

Fortunately, the environment here is much better than their original home.

Not only are there spacious and tidy houses here with exquisite and elegant interior decoration, but there are also all kinds of novel and interesting toys outside for them to play and entertain.

Perhaps it is because of this that these children have an unimaginably strong ability to adapt to the new environment. After just two days, they have completely accustomed themselves to and integrated into life here.

At this time, there were two simple and unpretentious women in the yard squatting by the well, washing clothes attentively.

When they noticed someone visiting, they hurriedly stopped what they were doing, stood up a little stiffly, and a hint of panic and uneasiness appeared in their eyes.

"Uncle Fang, you're here!"

A crisp greeting was heard, and both of them looked towards the door, welcoming the newcomer with smiles on their faces.

However, their curious eyes were unconsciously attracted to the woman in gorgeous clothes following behind Uncle Fang.

The woman has a graceful figure and a beautiful face, like a fairy from heaven.

Her silky, soft hair gently brushed against her fair skin. Beneath her willow-shaped eyebrows, her eyes were clear and moving, as if filled with endless tenderness and affection.

The country folk had never seen such a beautiful woman before, and they were stunned and at a loss for a moment.

"Are Li Li and Ma Ming available? Our young lady wants to talk to them."

Seeing that everyone was losing their composure, Uncle Fang quickly explained his purpose.

Hearing this, the two people who were originally immersed in the beauty of the woman in gorgeous clothes suddenly woke up, and a trace of worry instantly appeared on their faces. They looked at each other, as if communicating something with their eyes, and then couldn't help but secretly glance at Gu Fanchu standing beside them.

In the end, the two men didn't say anything, but turned around and hurriedly went into the house to look for someone.

Gu Fanchu walked into the yard slowly, sat down in the hall, and waited quietly.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon, the sound of footsteps came from far away.

As soon as Gu Fanchu looked up, he saw Li Li and Ma Ming, whom he had met once in the Marquis' Mansion in his previous life.

In fact, Li Li and Ma Ming are both honest country people, but they are a little clever. They accidentally discovered that there are things in the mountains that can be made into those things, so they studied it themselves. Unexpectedly, they made some amazing things.

In their previous life, the two were taken back to the Marquis' Mansion. Meng Hewan was nice to them at first, but after she learned the skills, she was killed to silence them.

Moreover, the whole family was killed, even the two cute little guys outside were not spared.

"Uncle Fang...Miss..."

The two men had never seen the world, and when they saw the woman's dignified and noble look, they couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"I have no ill will towards you. I sent someone to pick you up this time because you made that thing a while ago. To prevent anyone from plotting something bad, I brought you here with me."

Gu Fanchu spoke lightly.

The two of them looked nervous again and immediately knelt down. "Miss... Your Excellency, we... we know nothing. Please be magnanimous and don't hurt our family."

Now they are scared. That thing is extremely powerful. They originally thought they could control it, but later found that it was out of control.

They didn't know how these noble people knew that they knew these things. Now when they think about it, they just feel regretful.

Gu Fanchu knew the fear in their hearts, but human hearts were unpredictable, and she could not guarantee that the two of them had absolutely no other thoughts. At this time, even if it was a mean act, she had to say that keeping their families by her side was the best thing to do.

"You are smart people. Since I was able to find you and bring you to this capital, I naturally know what you have done."

Gu Fanchu took a sip of the tea brought by Qiutang and said slowly:

"To be honest, I have no ill will towards you, but I may not feel the same way about others. No sooner had my people taken you away than someone came to your village looking for you. What do you think they will do to you?"

This is also a threat. She needs these two people to be absolutely loyal to her.

What these two people accidentally discovered was something with extremely strong lethality. Meng Hewan called it gunpowder in her previous life.

Later, Pei Qing'an placed this thing on the battlefield to resist foreign enemies, and he was invincible.

So, she needed this thing! Whether it was to protect the General's Mansion or to increase her own bargaining chips, she had to master this technology in her own hands.

The two men looked at each other with pale faces, and finally kowtowed repeatedly with fear on their faces.

"Miss, Miss, we are willing to serve you! Please protect my family..."

Ever since they made that thing, they knew they were causing a big disaster and might even bring harm to their families.

It is not a pity for them to die, but they have elderly parents and young children to take care of. If all of them are implicated, both families will be wiped out.

"Okay, you're smart people. I'll have Uncle Fang prepare a safe area for you. Just ask for anything you need. Don't worry, as long as you don't betray me, I will ensure your family has a safe life. However, no one can know what you've done. If the news gets out, I'm afraid even I won't be able to protect you."

Uncle Fang watched the young girl strategizing and applying both kindness and force, and sighed in his heart, she really has the style of the old general!

After clarifying the attitudes of the two, Gu Fanchu left the yard, returned to his residence, and gave instructions to Uncle Fang.

"What these two have made is extremely important. It's a weapon of great destructive power, and we can't let anyone know about it easily. Uncle Fang, find a secluded place and give them a place to make these things. They also need reliable people to guard it. The fewer people who know about this, the better."

If you are not careful, you will only bring about fatal disaster.

Uncle Fang stared at Gu Fanchu's extremely serious face, and his originally gentle eyes now revealed a hint of solemnity.
