Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 57

God, it's cold.

In the dim light, Luluo's face had a strange green light, although she knew it was candlelight, but Gu Sixiao still shivered cleverly.

Nearly the end of the new year, the medical hall was very quiet, the people in the Hongxiao Pavilion had already withdrawn, even the coachman sent by the Shang Brothers left first.

She was the only one who stood by Luluo's side, listening to her painful moaning and suppressed crying, she felt hairy in her heart, but the palpitations made her feel more flustered than the dead silence now.

After drinking the medicine, Lu Luo fell into a deep sleep, if it wasn't for the occasional sob or two, just looking at her pale face, Gu Sixiao wondered whether Lu Luo just died like this several times.

Wang Fu died, Chunhua went crazy, and even Luluo's child died. In the past, everyone in the Gu family watched the excitement of these three people, and thought that the entanglement was absurd and laughable.

But now, what would those people think if they knew the result?Mei Xiang knew, what kind of expression would it be?
It was really strange, she was clearly flustered, but on this quiet and cold winter night, she could still think of so many useful and useless things.

In the past life and present life, those scenes that she thought she had forgotten a long time ago suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and even, she always remembered the appearance of Chunhua in the previous life when she was still by her side to serve her.

Chunhua's smile, Chunhua's pungentness, Chunhua's stubbornness, and her complacency and arrogance when relying on her power are really strange. When she thinks about it this way, she no longer hates her as much as she did at the beginning.

With a loud "bang", Gu Sixiao jumped up in shock and was stunned, only to realize that it was firecrackers being set off outside.

I don't know which urchin fired the firecrackers, probably in the alley, it was so loud and urgent that the ears were numb.

Lu Luo on the bed was a little frightened, tossing and turning, murmuring in a daze, but couldn't make out what she was calling.

Gu Sixiao went over to listen carefully, only to hear her calling "Mom, I hurt..."

Looking at the teardrops seeping from the corner of her eyes, Gu Sixiao felt pity, raised her hand and wiped her cold sweaty forehead with a handkerchief, and then patted her hand lightly.

When she was a child, she always called out like this when she was hurt and in pain. Obviously, her mother died young, and she couldn't even remember her appearance, but she knew that as long as she called out like that, her father and elder brother would I feel sorry for her, and feel sorry for her even more.

Look, she also knew how to play tricks back then, but she never had the chance like this...

With a wry smile, Gu Sixiao turned her head, and after hearing the sound of footsteps outside, she suppressed the smile on her lips.

"Girl," Chu Mengsheng opened the curtain, and Chu Mengsheng saw the girl sitting on the edge of the bed.

Under the dim light, the girl's face was dim, as if she was surrounded by a shadow.

His heart twitched, but he still didn't call out that name, he just smiled and said, "Girl, are you scared?"

Although he knew that this girl was also called Hua'er, but he really couldn't say it.

Shaking her head, Gu Sixiao stood up, "Doctor Chu, please take a look at her, she has been sweating since just now."

Chu Mengsheng nodded, and stepped forward to visit, "It seems that I have a fever, and I will prescribe another prescription later—girl, it is already late at night, look..."

Knowing that it is inconvenient to keep people in the medical clinic, especially since the New Year is coming soon, Chu Mengsheng's willingness to accept the patient Luluo is considered very good.

"Doctor Chu, my brother will be here soon." Gu Sixiao said in a low voice, and then said: "Is the money left by those few just now enough to pay for the consultation?"

Although Madam Bai was tough, she was quite knowledgeable, and just now she asked someone to take money for medical treatment, thinking she was afraid that Luluo would really die.

Hearing what Gu Sixiao meant, Chu Mengsheng nodded, "I also know that this lady has nowhere to go now, but I'm going to accompany my father back to the hometown to visit relatives in two days, so I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of this lady. Why don't I The medicine was prescribed, how about you take the medicine back home and take it on time?"

Is this evasion?

Gu Sixiao raised her head with a smile, and glanced at Chu Mengsheng's gentle face, with a hint of mockery in her eyes.

In the past, she only thought that her elder brother Meng Sheng was gentle and thoughtful, but now she knew that his thoughtfulness was just thinking too much about herself, and she was afraid of causing trouble.

Facing Gu Sixiao's gaze, Chu Mengsheng turned his head awkwardly.

It was obvious that the girl was smiling all the time and her eyes were gentle, but he just felt a little weird, as if she was peeping into his heart through his skin.It was because he saw him clearly that there was such a mockery in his eyes.

"Doctor Chu is right. It's New Year's Eve, and you shouldn't be disturbed." The gentle voice came to his ears, with a hint of apology, and Chu Mengsheng wondered for a moment whether he had read it wrong.

"She should wake up soon, right? When she wakes up, we'll leave." Gu Sixiao said in a low voice, and suddenly said: "It's just that she was sent to the Chu's Medical Center just now, anyone who knows Too many, I'm afraid that the police will come to ask questions later, but at that time, I have to trouble Dr. Chu to let me know where I am going."

Frowning, Chu Mengsheng secretly resented.

If it wasn't for the reputation of the Chu Family Medical Clinic, he really didn't want to take care of the miscarriage woman. Well, he was involved in the life lawsuit like this.

"It's okay, girl, don't be in a hurry. Stay overnight, maybe tomorrow, the police will come to the door for questioning - I won't leave until the day after tomorrow."

These words were spoken kindly, but Gu Sixiao could hear the meaning of reluctance.Pursing her lips and smiling, she didn't thank her either, she just sat aside blankly and looked at Lu Luo.

As soon as she stopped talking, the room immediately fell silent again. The deathly silence made Chu Mengsheng a little embarrassed.

Standing up, he was about to speak when he heard a knock on the door from outside.

"Ah, maybe the messenger is here." He stood up, somewhat relieved.

After questioning, he can get rid of this trouble no matter whether he takes the woman away or not.

Looking at Chu Mengsheng's back, Gu Sixiao hesitated for a while before following up. In this way, he was already a few steps behind.

When she left the back hall of the hospital, Chu Mengsheng had already greeted several men into the hospital.

The sound of firecrackers continued, one after another, and the voices of several people were a little vague.

Gu Sixiao only vaguely heard words like "things are not good", "the bad luck of the Chinese New Year", and "he committed suicide in fear of crime".

When her feet were weak, she stroked the table beside her so that she didn't fall.

"Who? Who's dead?!" When she called out, she realized how sharp her voice was.

The policeman who led in turned his head to look over, with some doubts.Behind him, a man stepped forward and said something in a low voice.

"Oh," the policeman's eyes lit up, he strode over, and asked in a deep voice, "It's you, did you talk to that prisoner before? Mama Bai also said, you two are old acquaintances!"

Straightening up, Gu Sixiao looked back at him without any fear, "Brother Cha is talking about Chunhua? Yes, I talked to her, but at that time, she was already crazy, so many people watched her , she doesn't even recognize who I am."

After a pause, Gu Sixiao said calmly: "I'm a girl from the Gu family. That Chunhua used to work in the Gu family, but she didn't do it for some reason. I also accidentally saw her, and then I realized that she had become a girl. Brothel girls, and others, I don't know."

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Although there is no way to deny that she knew Chunhua at this time, it is always right to say a few words less.

"Brother Cha, I don't know that Chunhua—" her voice tightened a little, Gu Sixiao had vaguely guessed it in her heart, but there was still a trace of luck left.

Squinting at her, the rough-eyed, rather upright policeman said in a deep voice, "That Chunhua has hanged herself!"

Although she was prepared, Gu Sixiao still felt a shock in her heart. She closed her eyes and turned her face away, only to feel the astringent taste on the tip of her tongue.

"Where is the woman who said she had a miscarriage?" The messenger frowned, thought about it and said, "And you, come with me to the yamen."

"Big brother, I was just passing by, and I didn't do anything bad." Gu Sixiao frowned, naturally unwilling, "It is said that if you are born, you can't enter the public school, and if you die, you can't go to hell, I'm a little girl , and didn’t do anything bad, what kind of government office did you go to!”

"That's not what I said. Since it is a witness, I have to go back and make it clear."

"There were quite a few people present at the time, did the elder brother send everyone back to the yamen for questioning?"

Choked by Gu Sixiao, the poor brother couldn't help frowning.

Naturally, it is impossible to bring everyone back to the Yamen for questioning, especially if there are a few nobles among them, let alone a small servant like him who can catch them.It's just that such a thing, being exposed by such a little girl, really makes people panic.

"You little lady, you are so rude. If you are told to go, you will go. Where is there so much nonsense? Could it be that you have some secret that you don't want others to know?" Said in a deep voice, and the messenger came over to pull Gu Si dawn.

Gu Sixiao hid, but didn't dodge, and was secretly annoyed that the policeman was hateful, when someone yelled urgently: "Second Senior Brother!"

When the messenger turned his head, he couldn't help being stunned, "Tiancang, why are you here?"

Striding in, Sun Tiancang walked over quickly, and first went to grab the hand that the messenger was holding Gu Sixiao.

"Second Senior Brother, this is my sister."

Sun Tiancang grabbed his hand, but the policeman was not annoyed, "Your sister? The girl who sold herself to raise money to send you to the martial arts school?"

"Exactly," Sun Tiancang smiled, turning his face away to avoid Gu Sixiao's gaze, "Huaer, call someone, this is my second senior brother Zhang Wu."

This person, what do people say about her?Selling himself to raise money for him?

Gu Sixiao was secretly amused, felt blessed, and said softly: "Second Senior Brother."

"Don't be too polite, little sister, I was rude just now." Zhang Wu smiled apologetically, looking at Gu Sixiao with gentle eyes, completely unable to see the vicious look just now.

"Really, if I knew it was my younger sister, I should be gentler." Touching his head, Zhang Wu smiled honestly, "I've heard Tian Cang say that he is lucky to have a girl like you."

"No, it's my blessing to have a brother like him."

Looking at Sun Tiancang, she smiled softly.

Their eyes met, but Sun Tiancang's face became hot and he turned his head away.

Looking at the two of them, Zhang Wu laughed out loud, but with a hint of envy.

"Since it's my own person, it's easy to talk about anything. Of course I can trust my little sister. Speaking of which, it's also your bad luck. You finally went out shopping with Tiancang, and this kind of thing happened to you. Alas, didn't you See, that Chunhua died so badly, her tongue was so strangled..."

Seeing Gu Sixiao's ugly face, he patted his head hastily, "I'm talking too much, I scared my little girl."
