Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 231

Walking out of Dali Temple, Gu Sixiao looked at Yue Mudan and couldn't help asking: "Mrs. Mu, does Master Mu know you're coming?"

In fact, even if she didn't ask about this, she also knew that, judging from Mr. Mu's usual attitude, it was impossible for him to agree to Mrs. Mu's going to Dali Temple to file a complaint.

Especially now that Yue Mudan is alone, there is no one to pick her up.

In the hall just now, it could be said that it is not easy for servants to enter, but now outside, he is still alone like this, which can already explain the problem.

Yue Mudan, who was dressed in white, looked back at Gu Sixiao.

Although they were together in class just now, they felt that there was some sympathy for each other, but they obviously didn't want to talk more about it with Gu Sixiao.

"Miss Gu, I'll take my leave first..."

"Madam," shouted anxiously, Gu Sixiao hesitated, and still invited: "My car is parked nearby, let me give Madam a ride!"

Yue Mudan's eyes flickered, but she still nodded with a smile.

In the car, she opened the curtains, her eyes swept left and right, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "I'm afraid that the two of you and I are already famous in Beijing."

There was a hint of mockery between her eyebrows and eyes, Yue Mudan's appearance at this time was quite different from the appearance of the noble lady Gu Sixiao met in the palace before.Although a little undignified, it is more lively.

Seeing Yue Mudan like this, Gu Sixiao couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Ma'am, don't you regret it?!"

"What do you regret?" Yue Mudan raised her eyebrows, looked at Gu Sixiao, and asked back: "Miss Gu, do you regret it?! There must be many people watching this journey in Dali Temple. Maybe at this moment, you It is already a thorn in the side of many people, get rid of it quickly. In this way, you are not afraid? Do you not regret it?!"

"No regrets, there are always things to do." Gu Sixiao said in a low voice, and Yue Mudan also laughed out loud.

"Isn't that the truth. My late husband died wrongly, and my daughter didn't deserve wrongly. In the past, I couldn't appeal for injustice or bitter complaints. I finally got this opportunity to avenge them. How could I shrink back from others? , keep silent?!"

"Master Mu will be angry, right? Also, your beloved daughter..."

Facing Shangyue Peony's gaze, Gu Sixiao couldn't continue talking.

"Little lady is thoughtful of me."

Pursing the corners of her lips, Gu Sixiao said in a low voice: "Madam may not know, but I'm from Jinan."

"Jinan?! Isn't the lady from Songjiang Prefecture? You also have that accent..."

Somewhat surprised, looking at Gu Sixiao, Yue Mudan sighed softly: "Jinan! I am also from Jinan."

Turning her head, she half-closed her eyes, as if she remembered something, with a reminiscence expression on her face.

"Little lady, do you know about Xue's Golden House?! It's a time-honored brand in Jinan. I have a lot of jewelry, all from Xue's..."

After hesitating for a while, Gu Sixiao still said: "That's my own business. Mr. Xue is my father."

"Your father?! Isn't your surname Gu?" Yue Mudan raised her eyebrows strangely, looked at Gu Sixiao carefully, and couldn't believe that she was the daughter of the Xue family.

"If you look closely, it looks familiar, but..."

Yue Mudan frowned, as if she was not sure if Gu Sixiao was like Xue Wen.

After many years, maybe Yue Mudan can't remember Xue Wen's appearance clearly?
"I follow my mother's appearance, maybe Madam has seen my mother before."

Hearing what Gu Sixiao said, Yue Mudan seemed to be relieved, "Let me just say, you don't look very much like Brother Xue, but I think you are very familiar, and I feel kind when I see you. That night in the palace, it was really too hasty, otherwise, I still want to talk to you..."

At that time, Mu Zihua was probably terrified, how could he let Yue Mudan come to talk to her.

Gu Sixiao smiled, but didn't say such a thing, but said softly: "Madam, I understand the pain in your heart, but the matter is over, you'd better look at what's in front of you."

"This should be said to you." Yue Mudan smiled slightly, looked at Gu Sixiao, and said softly: "I heard just now, it seems that the Gu family is kind to you, right? Now, you can be regarded as repaying Thanks to them, you must not be so reckless in the future."

Yue Mudan didn't know what else she had done, if she knew, she might be shocked.

Gu Sixiao thought so in her heart, but she didn't say anything in front of Yue Mudan, she just nodded with a smile and agreed.

"Little lady, I'm at Lord Mu's residence."

Su Mei yelled from outside, and said, "Master Mu came out to greet her in person."

Hearing this, Yue Mudan didn't care to speak any more, and got out of the car without waiting for Su Mei to put the footstool on.

It was Gu Sixiao who was quick, jumped out of the car and reached out to help Yue Mudan.

In fact, Mu Zihua didn't come out to greet him on purpose. From what he looked like, he should be rushing somewhere.Just seeing Yue Mudan, he immediately jumped off the horse and ran over quickly.

"Ma'am, where have you been?!" Looking up and down Yue Mudan's plain clothes, his face changed slightly, and then turned to look at Gu Sixiao who was at the side, his face really sank.

"It's you! You encouraged her to go to Dali Temple, right?! What do you want to do? Knowing that going to Dali Temple is dangerous at this time, why do you still do it? Do you have to watch your mother be killed by you? You are willing!?"

After being scolded directly, Gu Sixiao's face darkened, but before she could refute, she was shocked by Mu Zihua's last sentence.

Mu Zihua, how angry and anxious are you, that you can't choose your words like this.

After cursing a sentence, Mu Zihua also came back to his senses and hurriedly stopped speaking, but Yue Mudan had already heard what he said.

"Officer, what did you just say?" She asked a little confusedly, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at Gu Sixiao.

"Who is she? You just said—mother?! You, who are you?!"

"Madam forgot, I'm Gu Sixiao, Xue Wen's daughter." Gu Sixiao replied calmly, with a faint smile on her face all the time.

But her calmness did not deceive Yue Mudan. She stared at Gu Sixiao and recalled: "I remember that Brother Xue is Dusheng's daughter——I married into the General's Mansion and was never pregnant. When his family had three I’m only pregnant with a daughter—you said you’re Xue Wen’s daughter, so you’re the youngest? Why isn’t your surname Xue, but Gu?”

"Ma'am, I am the daughter of my father who was born abroad, so I follow my mother's surname."

This is nonsense, anyway, Yue Mudan didn't know about it.

But Yue Mudan still stared at her closely, "You have a Songjiang accent, so you grew up in Songjiang?"

Turning around abruptly, she stared at Mu Zihua who was trying to hold her hand.

"What did you mean by that just now? Officer, don't lie to me, I can hear you clearly. You did say the word mother!"

"lady……"

"Tell me!" Yue Mudan snapped, "You know my temper, if you lie to me..."

Although Yue Mudan didn't continue, Mu Zihua seemed to be frightened.

Turning his head to look at Gu Sixiao, he said shyly, "She, she is that child..."

After saying a word, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Yue Mudan.

At this time, Yue Mudan didn't look at him at all, but turned around and looked at Gu Sixiao fixedly.

"You, are you that child? My daughter?!" Asking in a low voice, she took a step closer, raised her hand, and wanted to touch Gu Sixiao's face, but she seemed too timid to touch her.

"Ma'am..." Gu Sixiao didn't know what to say.

Obviously Mu Zihua didn't want her to recognize Yue Mudan, but he was the last one to tell the story.

It can only be said that good fortune tricks people, and Mu Zihua cares about chaos, so he said this out of desperation.

After closing his eyes, Gu Sixiao took out the fan pendant from his purse.

As soon as she took out the fan pendant, Yue Mudan's gaze stuck to her fingers.

Taking the fan pendant slightly, she carefully looked at it again and again, and finally burst into tears.

"My poor daughter—"

She cried and rushed forward, hugging Gu Sixiao.

"Daughter, my daughter, mother finally saw you again..."

Being hugged by Yue Mudan and crying bitterly, Gu Sixiao also felt his nose sore.

It's just that he is not as forgetful as Yue Mudan, turning his head to look at Mu Zihua with an embarrassed expression, and then at the servants in front of the door who are staring in a daze.

She couldn't help sighing in a low voice, and patted Yue Mudan's back lightly, "Madam, let's go in and talk about it!"

Yue Mudan had been crying for a long time, and it was Mu Zihua who hurriedly responded: "Yes, we will talk about it when we enter the mansion, and we will talk about it after we enter the mansion."

As he was talking, he came to help Yue Mudan, but Yue Mudan ignored him at all, and just held Gu Sixiao tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in front of her eyes the next moment.

In desperation, Gu Sixiao had no choice but to coax Yue Mudan in a low voice, half-supporting and half-supporting Yue Mudan into the Mu Mansion.

When she was about to leave, she turned her head and gave Su Mei a wink. Su Mei understood, and after Gu Sixiao entered the house, she turned around and went back to Su's house to report the letter, regardless of Mu's housekeeper's concession.

Entering the hall of Mu Mansion, Mu Zihua still wanted to divide the guests and hosts into seats, but Yue Mudan never left Gu Sixiao's side at all, just staring at her closely.

Helpless, Mu Zihua had no choice but to follow Yue Mudan, and he sat on the main seat by himself, while Yue Mudan and Gu Sixiao, who were the masters, sat together.

Holding Gu Sixiao's hand, Yue Mudan felt more cordial the more she looked at it.

She thought Gu Sixiao looked familiar before, but now she can see it.

"Aren't these eyes and mouth like me? However, these eyebrows are like your father, black and bright..."

"Cough..." Mu Zihua coughed lightly, somewhat awkwardly.

Although he didn't mind that his wife remarried, he still didn't want too many people to know about it, so as not to have a bad influence on him.

It's just that right now, he doesn't like Yue Mudan mentioning her ex-husband, so he can't say anything else.

Even if he said it, Yue Mudan would not pay attention to him.

Reaching out to touch Gu Sixiao's cheek, Yue Mudan's tears fell again.

"Yun'er, you must have suffered a lot..."

Seeing Gu Sixiao raising her eyebrows, she hurriedly said: "You may not remember, Yun'er is the name your mother gave you. Yun'er, you have suffered all these years--in the end, how did you live these years?! "
