Gu Erbai's Pastoral Life

Chapter 155
"no!"

Before Gu Erbai could answer, the old lady vetoed it, and her tone became sullen, "Why Qinger? Is it so difficult for me to let you stay with me?"

Gu Yiqing turned his face and squinted at his jealous old lady, just about to speak, but was interrupted by Gu Erbai.

"I can't, I can't. I can't stay up late. If I stay up late, I will be useless the next day, let alone stay up all night."

The old lady let out a faint 'tch~', very delicate.

Xiao Taozi pursed her lips from behind, come on, old lady, they will let you go down the steps.

Hearing this, Gu Yiqing seemed to be probing the truth of this sentence, and finally looked at her with a slightly cruel look, "After that, you will be miserable."

"?" Gu Erbai raised his eyebrows slightly, how could it be miserable.

Gu Yiqing suddenly leaned over and moved to her ear, rubbing her thin lips lightly against her fair and delicate earlobe, and said in a warm voice, "From now on, Yan Hao will definitely stay until the middle of the night."

"..."

Gu Erbai's dog's head suddenly became red like a boiled shrimp.

Uncle Qing, how can you turn off the car for a while?You're not tired, your wheels are about to blow out.

"Cough~" Seeing the two whispering in front of her face, the old lady felt so depressed, she coughed heavily, took his hand and walked towards the stage, "Qing'er, you will accompany me as your mother tonight." Let’s watch the whole civet cat for the prince.”

"Pfft-"

Gu Erbai pushed away his reluctant hand, and waved a goodbye gesture, "Let's go and see the civet cat for the prince, it's very interesting, really."

When I was a child, my grandmother dragged me to watch a play, and it happened to be a civet cat in exchange for the prince. That "beautiful memory" is still in my dream.

"Taozi, take your wife to live in the Waterside Garden." Gu Yiqing frowned and was pulled away, turned his head and confessed, his eyes were fixed on a certain little woman.

Gu Erbai frowns funnyly, is he so hypocritical, Uncle Qing?

"It's time to order~"

Hearing this, Xiao Taozi hurriedly ran to Gu Erbai's side.

The Waterside Garden is a place for the old lady to prepare for the future mistress of Gu's mansion. I heard that it is full of exotic flowers and plants, and rare treasures are hidden everywhere. It's just that Housekeeper Liu keeps a close watch on weekdays and does not allow idlers to come in and out at will.

Now that she has a master, she can follow suit.

"Let's go?"

Gu Erbai looked at Xiao Taozi's eyes shining outwards, and raised his eyebrows as a signal to the outside.

"Yeah!" Xiao Taozi squinted her eyes excitedly, followed her up and down and asked, "Ma'am, what's the name of that dance you just danced? Xiao Taozi also wants to learn, if I have a chance Show it to Ah Shen..."

inside the field.

When Gu Yiqing was forcibly abducted by his old mother to the front of the stage, he sighed slightly, and turned to his little daughter-in-law...Where is the little daughter-in-law?
Seeing the empty venue so soon, Gu Yiqing's expression changed. It seemed that it would not be possible until the middle of the night.

The old lady glanced at her absent-minded son, and stared at the lively stage with resentful eyes.

On the stage, a young girl in a complicated robe wears pearl flowers on her head and a court lady's costume, playing the role of Kou Zhu. She drifted to the riverside with a sad face, wandering in a dilemma, and babbling after a while. sang.

"It should be said that during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, the whole palace celebrated the Lantern Festival, and the two concubines Li and Liu conceived the prince together. Zhenzong was eager to seek a son, and promised that whoever gave birth to the prince first would be named queen~ Who would have thought that Concubine Li would give birth suddenly? Concubine Liu is so angry, in order to win the palace, Concubine Liu replaced the crown prince with a civet cat and handed it to my court lady Kou Zhu to throw it into Yuhe..."

A wonderful civet cat for the prince is in full swing.

"Qing'er~"

Although the old lady was concentrating on watching the play, she was afraid that the unfilial son next to her would suddenly run away, and chatted with him from time to time.

Gu Yiqing just listened, but didn't reply, and sent someone to bring over the account books of the water town terraces.

If you don't bring something to divert your attention, you may be immersed in fantasies about a certain little woman all night.

"Qing'er?"

The old lady turned her face in panic, thinking that he had run away.

Gu Yiqing glanced at her, and asked with a calm expression, "Mother, what do you want to ask?"

The old lady pursed her lips in An Xin, and could hear some dissatisfaction in his voice, probably because she blamed herself for getting a foot in the middle of his little daughter-in-law.

"Where were you whispering to Erbai just now, but were you talking bad about my mother?"

Gu Yiqing frowned, raised his eyes and unintentionally glanced at the stage, the court lady Kou Zhu was holding the prince in her arms, the prince was fat and white, with a naive smile, very lovable.

If the young daughter-in-law should have been like this when she was young, a smile gradually formed on his lips as he thought about it.

"My son told your daughter-in-law, let her go back to sleep early and take care of her body so that she can give birth to a big fat boy."

"real?!"

Hearing this, the old lady was so excited that she couldn't hold back the faint light of joy in her eyes.

Then, as if she remembered something, she coughed softly, "Don't coax me, is it possible that you really want to do a fake show?"

Fake play?

Gu Yiqing held a smirk, and his long eyelashes drooped slightly, as if he was thinking about something, his clear face was full of a profound sense of control.

On the side, Butler Liu came in from outside the venue and brought someone with him to bring the account book for the water town terraces.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the old lady shook her head tastelessly.

"Let's just look at your account books. I think you've been in a volatile mood for a while, and you have to worry about everything for your mother."

Steward Liu scratched his nose, as if... the host has been worrying about you.

……

Waterside Garden Promenade.

Xiao Taozi bouncingly followed behind Gu Erbai, holding a large cluster of fresh flowers and plants that had just been picked from the garden in her hands, full of joy, chattering non-stop, just like a lark out of the cage.

Gu Erbai walked in front and sneezed coldly.

"It seems a little cold."

"That's why the host is thinking about you~" Xiao Taozi pursed her lips, her apricot eyes vaguely filled with spring.

Gu Erbai raised his eyebrows, little girl, you can talk.

Around, there are tired birds returning to their nests, knowing the summer, a hundred flowers are budding, lively and lively, but there is no trace of people. Compared with the other gardens in Gu's residence, it is almost quiet and eerie.

Gu Erbai stopped suddenly while walking.

"what happened?"

Xiao Taozi was about to say something, but she suddenly stopped, and was taken aback.

Gu Erbai looked around with an expression on his face, "Don't you... think this place is too desolate?"

In this garden, she can hear the echo when she speaks, it's too creepy.
