Chapter 73
Because of the death of her beloved daughter, the old lady couldn't bear the blow, so she moved back to her hometown in Yunzhou, where she ate fast and recited Buddha all day long, which is why she didn't celebrate the New Year in Yuecheng.

"Changge, do you know everything now?" Mrs. Gu called Gu Changge to the bed at night and said weakly while holding Gu Changge's hand.

"En." Gu Changge nodded.She didn't understand, since the old lady Gu couldn't accept the death of her beloved daughter, and knew that it was she and her son who had driven their daughter to a dead end, why did Gu Xiuning encounter the same thing, and she and Gu Yuancheng were still so furious and wanted to kill each other?

"Do you know? When I first saw you, I felt that you were somewhat similar to Meng'er."

She stared at Gu Changge steadfastly, as if she had seen through everything, including the soul of Gu Jin who was possessed in this body.

"How can I be like my aunt?"

"It's similar. I can see that you don't like being trapped in this square courtyard, you want to fly out. My Meng'er was like this at the beginning. She said that the Gu family couldn't lock her up, and she was doomed." It's about to fly out. Now you probably know why I like you."

Gu Changge remained silent.

The matter of Gu Xiuning earlier disobeyed her intentions, and then the inn Ruyi came to Churui, the old lady was really tolerant.It turned out that it was only because she was similar to Ms. Meng in character, loving the house and Wu...

"If you want to fly out, fly out. Just don't ever leave the Gu family behind, you have to promise me. You swear that you will dedicate your life to the Gu family, and you will never betray the Gu family." The old lady held Gu's family tightly with her old hand Changge's hand spoke urgently.

She said she could fly out, but she tied a string around her leg, so she couldn't fly far, and she was destined to be under the control of the Gu family.The old lady is really far-sighted!
However, as long as she can fly out of the cage, she is also willing!
"Grandma, I promise you. I will never betray the Gu family."

The old lady finally breathed a sigh of relief, let go of Gu Changge contentedly, and stared at the bed curtain above her head in a daze, with a complex and loving light in her eyes.

"Meng'er, my mother is coming to accompany you."

Gu Changge knew that the old lady was returning to the light at this moment, and he was afraid that she would go west after a long time.She didn't know how to comment on Miss Meng.Right and wrong are not in the scope of her evaluation.

However, she is Gu Changge, she will never follow in the footsteps of that Miss Meng!
Two days later, Mrs. Gu passed away.

Everyone in the room was crying badly, but Gu Changge was the only one who knelt by the bed without saying a word, with no expression on his face.

"Miss Six, I didn't expect that the old lady would go west by crane. I really regret it." Lu Yu came to express his condolences, but what he said was gloating.

"Lord Lu, now that my old lady has passed away, you can let us out of the city and let the old man rest in peace!" Tweety wiped away her tears and came to Lu Yu.When the old lady Gu passed away, Tweety was the one who cried and offended her.

Tweety was picked up by Mrs. Gu on the street in the year Miss Meng passed away, and she has been raising Tweety since then, and she is considered half a daughter.Tweety is also very respectful and filial to the old lady.

"I know that you have difficulties. But you also have to be considerate of this officer's difficulties. How can I just open the city and release people before the thieves are eliminated? Now that the deceased has passed away, it is better to finish the funeral as soon as possible. Don't let the corpse stay longer and send out The stench is coming, let the old man go to the ground earlier, do you think so or not?"

"But the old lady's last wish is to return to her hometown with fallen leaves and roots. If you don't let us go, my lord, how can we transport the old lady back to her hometown and put her in peace?" Tweety asked.

"It's simple. It will take some time for Tongcheng to be in Yunzhou. Why don't you cremate the old lady first, and then take the old lady's ashes back to her hometown for burial when she can travel to the city?"

"Cremation!" Tweety jumped up when she heard cremation. "How can this be!"

Gu Changge knew that the ancients paid the most attention to leaving the whole body after death, so burials were popular, and cremation was undoubtedly no different from destroying bones and ashes, and traditional people like them could not accept this proposal.

"There is no way around this. Miss Six, do you think this method is feasible?" Lu Yu looked at Gu Changge.

"Miss, absolutely not!" Cui'er stepped forward, and Shuangxiu and others followed suit. "Cremation is absolutely not allowed! This is disrespectful to the dead!"

People in the room were chattering non-stop, making Gu Changge upset, while Lu Yu on the side looked like he was watching the show.

"Enough!" Gu Changge sternly shouted to stop everyone. "I've already made up my mind on this matter!" Gu Changge turned to Lu Yu, bowed to Lu Yu, and said indifferently: "Then I will trouble Mr. Lu to rush about my grandma's affairs."

"Miss Six, you're welcome. It's just a matter of asking the servants to prepare firewood. I'll tell them as soon as I go down. Don't worry, Miss Six." After Lu Yu left, everyone gathered around again.

"Miss, how can you cremate the old lady without permission! If the madam and the master find out about this matter, can you bear it?" Tweety asked domineeringly.

"Tweety, remember your current identity! I don't need you to tell me what to do!" Gu Changge retorted unceremoniously. "There is nothing in the first place, so where is the dust? After death, dust returns to ashes, so what does burial and cremation have to do with it? Do you think that letting grandma's body stink and being criticized by others is respect for her?"

"But that Master Lu!"

"The days are still long! Who might have the last laugh, just wait and see!" Gu Changge clenched his fists and said angrily.

Gu Changge is a person with clear grievances and grievances.Lu Yu taught her to suffer this humiliation today, Lu Yu must be given a chance by her, otherwise she will definitely repay her twice.

Mrs. Gu's funeral ended hastily, and was completely burned out in a fire.

Cui'er hugged the old lady's ashes urn and cried badly, Shuangxiu and the others couldn't persuade her no matter how hard she tried.

"Miss, how do you plan to explain this to Mrs. Madam?"

"It's up to you. If my wife and master think that I have done something wrong and should be punished, I will not say a word." Gu Changge believes that anyone will eventually choose to compromise at that time.

Who knows how long Lu Yu interrupted their house arrest?Is it true that the old lady's body is rotten and smelly, and even her own people can't stand it before compromising and cremating her?Rather than being humiliated like this, it would be better to burn it clean and leave the dignity of the dead.

"But this crime is too heavy for you, Miss." Shuangxiu couldn't help feeling troubled.

"You don't have to think too much, we'll talk about it after we leave the city." At this juncture, isn't she the only one who can be charged with this crime?Could it be possible to teach the villain to take responsibility for her?

There are more than a dozen people in their group, and their lives are in her hands. Can she not make compromises?
Counting the time, the Gu family should know that they were detained in Tongcheng, right?Then there should be news in the next few days.Gu Changge didn't believe it, but when Yin Luohan and the county king came forward, he dared not let him go.

While talking, suddenly a group of soldiers rushed into the courtyard and surrounded the courtyard tightly. Lu Yu strode forward in official uniform, with a serious expression on his face.

Gu Changge thought in his heart, wondering if things have turned around?
"Master Lu sent so many people here, why, what crime did Chang Ge commit, so many people need to guard him?"

"Miss Six is ​​worrying too much. Thieves entered Tongcheng yesterday. Miss Six is ​​a distinguished guest in my residence, so I must send some people to protect you."

"Then Changge has to thank Mr. Lu." Gu Changge smiled.

Lu Yu on the opposite side snorted coldly, with a strong hostility on his face.

"Protect Miss Six well. If something goes wrong, I'm the only one to ask you!"

Those soldiers shuddered, and solemnly said in unison:
"Yes!"

"Miss, what's going on here? Why did Lord Lu send so many people to arrest us..." Shuangxiu couldn't help feeling a little flustered.

"Don't worry. Didn't you hear it just now? The thieves have entered Tongcheng, Shuangxiu, and we should be leaving the city soon." Gu Changge said with a smile.

Shuangxiu was taken aback for a moment, and then her face beamed with joy. "real?"

"Of course it's true."

"That's great!"

Seeing Lu Yu's smelly expression, Gu Changge knew that Yin Luohan or the county king must have sent someone to ask for someone.Lu Yu was unwilling to let him go because of his hatred with the Gu family. It can only be said that he was ignorant of current affairs and wanted to die.

But what did Lu Yu mean when he said that there were thieves in Tongcheng?Could it be that someone sneaked in instead of Yin Luohan and others negotiating with him?
Or is it that Yin Luohan's people haven't arrived yet?But someone else sneaked in?

Regardless of its!
Look at Lu Yu's posture, they won't be free for too long!Let's just wait and see!
The people arranged by Lu Yu can be said to have completely surrounded Gu Changge's courtyard, patrolling all day and night to prevent surprise attacks.

It was night, Gu Changge looked out the window, saw the soldiers stationed motionless outside the window, and then closed the window.

Gu Changge was thinking about who would sneak into Tongcheng, and at the same time, he was also listening sideways to the movement outside the house.See how these people are cleaned up.

Since someone has already sneaked in, they will probably come to the rescue tonight?
Gu Changge waited for another two hours, and gradually became sleepy.She dozed off with her head on the bed.There was a sudden noise outside the house, but there was no sound of clashing swords and fighting.Gu Changge felt strange, got up from the bed in a hurry, and opened the door openly, only to see a masked man in black just appearing at the door.

Gu Changge hurriedly took a few steps back to keep a distance from the other party.From the corner of the eye, I saw all the soldiers outside the house lying motionless on the ground.

"Who are you!" Gu Changge asked hurriedly, not daring to be careless.

"Changge, it's me!" The person who came pulled down the scarf, but it was dreamy.

"Meng Shen, why is it you!"

Meng Shen didn't say much, and quickly stepped into the room and closed the door. "Naturally, I came to save you. I have poisoned everyone outside, so hurry up and leave with me!"
