Gu Erbai's Pastoral Life

Chapter 364

Chu Weiyu defaulted, "More or less."

"Heh~ No wonder my sister Su Jinxi, the number one beauty, came to seduce people with gorgeous flowers at that time, and the owner didn't even look at it, so relieved, really relieved! Sister Xiaobai has avenged me, and when I go back, I will follow her. She said that only a natural, pure and unaffected little sister Xiaobai can break the ice rink owner's heart that has been sealed for many years, and she has no chance."

"Madam Gu's temperament is indeed pure, which is the exact opposite of Concubine Ai."

"..." Lin Yan looked at her sadly, "Just wait, I am impure, I decided to sleep with the pure little white sister tonight."

"Aifei, are you serious?"

Lin Yan blinked her bewitching eyes, "Naturally."

Chu Weiyu chuckled, "Okay, let's talk about Aifei after she can get off the sedan chair."

After the words fell, a wailing came from the sedan chair, "Chu Weiyu, you are a beast and inhumane!"

"It's midnight~ Watch out for candles..."

Accompanied by a high-pitched and resonant voice, the Night Walker knocked three times, which seemed extraordinarily clear in this quiet night.

There are dogs barking in Chaimen, the sound of sheep and cattle turning in the pen, rustling leaves on the Populus euphratica trees and the wailing of autumn cicadas. In the fields, there are only piles of straw that the farmers have not transported away, lifeless. lying down.

The bleakness of autumn is completely different from the heat of summer, and the depression seems to indicate something, it's over, everything should be over.

On such a night, Jiacheng Guzhen, there are two places that are destined not to be peaceful.

The quiet and dark Gu Mansion, and the brightly lit Wanjia Yizhuang.

People in the room were tossing and turning, not sure if they were asleep or not, a layer of sweat was forming on their foreheads.

Outside Gan Yi Zhai, there was a rustling of footsteps, from far to near, with a sense of haste.

"Butler Liu."

The maid who was on guard at night leaned towards the visitor slightly, making very little movement, as if she was afraid of disturbing the people inside.

Steward Liu lowered his voice and asked the servant girl, "What did you say?"

"Never."

"Did you sleep well?"

The maid gradually raised her head, and shook her head at him solemnly under the moonlight, "I don't know if I'm asleep or not, I keep turning over."

Upon hearing this, Butler Liu frowned slightly anxiously. It's already the third watch and he hasn't slept yet.

Could it be that the owner lost his temper with his wife today?

"The host is not coming back tonight, why didn't he take his wife to the Waterside Garden?"

"The slaves have told Madam, and Madam insists on coming to Gan Yi Zhai."

"Why?"

"I don't know, but the maidservant saw... there were tears on Madam's face, and she was quite depressed."

Tears?

Steward Liu was silent for a while, realizing that this matter was serious, he sent his maid to the Medicine Pavilion to make a cup of calming soup, and then walked towards Changgong Garden.

Lin Yan was weakly hugged by Chu Weiyu from the carriage, half-closed her eyes, and was inevitably tossed again when she arrived in Changgong Garden, and she had no strength at all in the middle of the night.

In the middle of the night, when she was about to go to bed, she could vaguely hear the noise of people outside, occasionally mixed with words like "Niang Niang" and "Madam", she forcefully opened her eyes.

His dizzy head seemed to be thinking about something.

Chu Weiyu stretched out his long arms, pulled the quilt to tuck her tightly, and a magnetic hoarse voice was close to his ears, "Go to sleep."

Lin Yan was also really sleepy and didn't want to talk to her, but she opened her eyes again as soon as she closed them.

"I can't sleep. It's Steward Liu's voice. Butler Liu has always done things properly. He came to see me in the middle of the night, and the host is not here. Something must have happened to Sister Xiaobai."

After finishing speaking, she stood up swiftly, shook her head, drove away the sleepy bugs, put on her clothes and was about to go out.

Chu Weiyu put his hands behind his head, looked at her with a calm face, and said in a cool tone, "It seems that Aifei still has a lot of strength."

Lin Yan gave him a helpless smile and got off the bed to put on her shoes.

"It's hard for a clean official to cut off housework."

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, and said something different about Sister Xiaobai, so she put on a casual dress and leaned over to give him a sweet kiss, "I'll go back as soon as I go."

Chu Weiyu had nothing to do with her, so he grabbed her, got up and put on his robe, "I will accompany you."

Outside the door, Steward Liu saw that the emperor and queen had come out, and saluted again and again, "The old slave disturbed the emperor and queen to rest, but the lady in the mansion couldn't sleep at night, the old slave was really worried, so I came here to ask the queen what happened in the daytime gone?"

Lin Yan glanced at Chu Weiyu, and said strangely, "I will go to pray for the heir with the emperor in the afternoon, so I don't know what will happen afterwards."

"This..." Butler Liu was even more confused. The owner of the venue is not in the mansion right now, so if something happens to Madam, how should he explain it.

Lin Yan was suspicious, "Take me there to have a look."

"it is good."

……

Wanjia clothing store.

Xuan Jingtang.

From noon to midnight, Gu Yiqing sat on the red sandalwood inlaid marble chair for a full four or five hours without moving.

On both sides of the rectangular ebony table with flowers in the hall, there are two people sitting respectively. The old lady is talking with the former master of the Gu family.

From the calmness of the two at the beginning, to the emotional breakdown and swearing at the end, the old lady of the Gu family no longer had a bit of her usual extravagance, and the former master of the Gu family did not appear humble at all.

There were two people kneeling on the ground, Wan Rui, the owner of Wanjia Yizhuang, and Wan Jun, the housekeeper.

The atmosphere in the hall was warm and gloomy, treacherous and cruel.

Except for the two couples who used to be very loving but now turned against each other, they were blinded by hatred. Everyone knew that maybe in just a moment, the host got impatient and killed them all.

Everyone was terrified.

On both sides of the Lixin case table, the two people were tired of cursing, and they dropped their sleeves and sat back on their seats. The air was so quiet that only the rapid and intense gasps of the two could be heard, as if they were not to be outdone, and neither of them was willing to compromise first .

"Mother, it's time to go home."

At this moment, the man on the back of the chair suddenly spoke, his quiet voice could not detect any emotion, like a very ordinary sentence.

"Qing'er, if you're tired, you should go back to rest early, it's not good to let my dear daughter-in-law stay alone in the mansion, so go back first."

The old lady turned her face, her face flushed with anger hadn't faded away, but her harsh tone was much calmer, with some earnest reassurance.

"Qing'er, are you married?"

At this time, the thin old man opposite the desk suddenly raised his head, looking at the child on the back of the chair who was in full bloom, his eyes were shining with unconcealable light.

"What does it have to do with you!"

The old lady stood up against the table, blocking his sight, her tone changed in an instant, that distorted and reddened kind face reflected in the eyes of the old man was simply abominable.

"You deserve to be called Qing'er? Your child is here!"

She continued to point her fingers at Wan Jun on the ground, her fingertips trembling with anger.
