That's the case, but Gu Xuezhou felt that he was not qualified to say who he gave Mu Ge'er to, and he was not Mu Ge'er's own brother, so he was just a passer-by who met in Pingshui. After the abduction gang was cracked down, Mu Ge'er was no longer a servant, but the new household registration was still being applied for, and it did not fall into their family.

Gu Xuezhou went to the silk village and pulled a piece of new cloth with rattan blue iris pattern, and made a new dress for Mu Ge'er. Brother Mu has been raising generals in his hands for two months, he understands medical skills, and changes the medicinal diet every day to give Brother Mu food supplements, replenish qi and blood, and is a rouge shop, and the balsam and snow ointment prepared by his own family are smeared, Brother Mu'er's little face is more and more jade white and delicate, put on new clothes, with his natural delicate style, at a glance, he looks like a rich young master.

Today, he has to send Mu Ge'er to Lu Mansion.

Before leaving, he always felt that he had forgotten something, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't. Recalling the scene when he first met Mu Ge'er, it didn't seem to be a long time ago, but he seemed to have the illusion that he had been with Mu Ge'er for a long time, probably because Mu Ge'er had made him worry too much.

Gu Xuezhou took Brother Mu and didn't walk to the door, Brother Mu pulled his hand, "The bookbag hasn't been put on yet." ”

Gu Xuezhou said: "It's okay, the pen and ink are all available in the Lu Mansion." "The pen and ink he bought are not very good, and they must not be as good as the stationery of other people's masters.

Mu Ge'er didn't agree, and ran back with a click, instead of finding the blue calico bookbag made by Gu Xuezhou and putting it on his back. He cherished the bookbag very much, and it was still new, and he ran back after carrying it, took the initiative to hold Gu Xuezhou's hand, and raised his chin, "Okay, let's go." ”

When he arrived at Lu Mansion, Lu Juren wore a moon-white Hangzhou silk straight jacket, a few green bamboos embroidered on the corners of his clothes, and a double long white jade pendant on his waist, and Mrs. Lu also sat in the hall, her gray hair was meticulously combed, and her round face was very kind, and she wore a makeup gown with dark patterns in a grape purple vase, and a set of ruby heads. Gu Xuezhou's heart suddenly calmed a little, not to mention that the attitude of Lu Juren and his wife was very grand, but also obviously attached great importance to it.

With Gu Xuezhou by his side, Brother Mu is still very well-behaved and submissive, which provoked Mrs. Lu to praise again and again, Brother Mu calmly and calmly pampered and not surprised, not that he is modest, but that he is proud, and he feels that he is fully worthy of these praises, as a matter of course, nothing special.

Gu Xuezhou squatted down, looked at the child at eye level, and reluctantly admonished: "You have to be well-behaved here." ”

Brother Mu frowned, not very impatient. He's not a fool, and the ugly bastard takes the trouble to explain every time, where does he need to say so many times. He simply pretended to be obedient and interrupted Gu Xuezhou's words loudly: "I'm very well-behaved." ”

Gu Xuezhou nodded and stood up, "Then I'll go." ”

Lu Juren silently watched the two of them talk as if they were snuggling on the side, and when Gu Xuezhou was about to leave, he personally sent Gu Xuezhou out. All the way to the door, Gu Xuezhou had to excuse himself and said, "Sir, let's stay, it will be a pain in the junior if you send it again." ”

Lu Juren smiled gently: "I have something I want to say to you." ”

Gu Xuezhou bowed his head, indicating that he was listening.

Lu Judao: "It's better not to be busy with the household formalities first, let the child live with me for a while, and see if he adapts." ”

Gu Xuezhou was stunned for a moment and agreed.

Gu Xuezhou stepped out of the threshold of the Lu family and looked back, with white walls and red doors, rich and magnificent. What does Lu Juren mean? Is it ...... Is there still a sense of picking? Gu Xuezhou couldn't accept it for a while, in his opinion, Brother Mu was at least a rare qualification in a hundred, so it was really ......

Uncle Gu looked at the store today, came back from the store in the afternoon, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and realized after a while that he felt that the yard was too quiet, in the past, at this time, Brother Mu had just gotten out of school, and would be noisy for a while, and his little young master wanted to get some dim sum melons and fruits for the little ancestor to eat, and then care about what he learned in the school.

Oh, Brother Mu was sent away today. Gu Bo remembered that he was gone, no wonder it was so quiet. Then he became satisfied, and walked well, this matter was not something that he and Master Gu were doing behind their backs, and it was finally done, the Lu family is also a good family, and he thinks that he is very worthy of Brother Mu.

Gu Bo paced around the courtyard twice, and the ground under his feet seemed to be a few inches wider than usual. When he turned around, he saw Gu Xuezhou standing quietly in the corner of the courtyard at some point, lost his soul, which startled him.

"What are you doing there?" asked Gu Bo.

Gu Xuezhou's drooping head shook, weakly as if he didn't even have the strength to lift up, he didn't say a word, let out a long sigh, and turned to leave. He panicked in his heart, probably because of what Lu Juren said before leaving, but if he didn't have this sentence, wouldn't he be worried about Brother Mu? Gu Xuezhou didn't know, anyway, he was worried right now, he couldn't eat dinner, and he couldn't sleep.

Gu Xuezhou tossed and turned to the third watch, but he still couldn't sleep, he sat on the edge of the bed, the moonlight was like practice, and the window paper reflected the shadows of the trees in the court, swaying with the wind. He remembered in a trance that one night before, he put the hexagonal lamp on the bed and played with Mu Ge'er, who hooked his fingers to make a bird, waving his wings and flying.

"Brother Mu, ......" Gu Xuezhou muttered to himself softly, not sleepy at all, thinking that he would find an excuse to see Brother Mu in the unknown day.

When he came back to his senses, he seemed to see the shadow of a child outside the window, Gu Xuezhou was stunned, blinked his eyes, there was no figure outside the window, he laughed at himself for thinking too much, and he imagined the shadow of the tree as Brother Mu.

As soon as he thought about it, a familiar voice sounded outside the door, Qingli was immature, and it sounded a little cold at this time, "Gu Xuezhou, you open the door for me." ”

Brother Mu? Am I hallucinating? Gu Xuezhou thought, it's only been a day, is he worried about Brother Mu'er's visual and auditory hallucinations?

The door panel was slammed hard, and it was particularly abrupt and loud in the quiet night, as if it was about to fall, Mu Ge'er slapped the door and shouted while slapping, "Open the door!"

It's true! Gu Xuezhou was even more panicked, put on his coat, pulled his shoes to open the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Mu Ge'er standing at the door, his eyes were as cold as a blade, and at this time, even if the snow fell on him, it would not melt.

Gu Xuezhou was a little weak-hearted, "Why did you come back?"

Mu Ge'er walked into the house between him, a series of mud footprints on the ground that he stepped on, he sat on the bed and took off his shoes by himself, "I got up and climbed over the wall while they were all asleep." ”

Gu Xuezhou thought about the flat and high white wall of the Lu family, and couldn't imagine how Mu Ge'er's small body could climb up, even if he stretched out his hand, he couldn't reach the wall, no, now is not the time to think about this. Gu Xuezhou became anxious, "Why did you come back, they will be worried when they find out that you are gone!"

As soon as Mu Ge'er took off a shoe, he lifted it and threw it hard at Gu Xuezhou, his red eyes were round, and tears were about to flow out, "You lied to me." ”

It hurt to smash people, and Gu Xuezhou's white cloth was dirty, Gu Xuezhou was not angry, walked over, and squatted down in front of him, "I asked if you want to study with Lu Juren, and if you want to find your mother." ”

Mu Ge'er said hatefully: "Strong words. Did you sell me, and how much did you charge?"

"How could it be!" Gu Xuezhou immediately retorted.

Hearing this, Brother Mu felt better, he felt that he was patient enough, if someone else did this to him, he would have taken revenge a long time ago, but he really didn't believe that the ugly monster abandoned him. Even if this kind of thing really happens one day, it should be that he abandoned the ugly monster, how could he be abandoned?!...... In fact, he didn't expect that there would be no one else who could coax him to this job.

Gu Xuezhou looked at his stubborn face and almost said "You hurry up and explain it to me", lowered his head, Mu Ge'er squeezed the little beast and put it on his knees, he held the pair of small hands as cold as stones, and asked him, "Is there anything bad about the Lu family?"

"Not good!" Mu Ge'er said categorically.

Gu Xuezhou covered his little hand a little warmer, "I'm very happy that you're back, but, Brother Mu, you still have to think about it." You kid is sometimes too paranoid, and he will always do things in his anger that he will regret later...... Even if I like you again, I know that you don't like me that much. ”

Alas, he knew that Brother Mu was a child...... is a little cold, no matter whether it is a person or a thing, he will weigh the pros and cons, and choose the one that is most beneficial to him shrewdly and ruthlessly, "Mr. Lu is a very good person, if you had escaped to his car, he would have helped you like me." The Lu family is more suitable for you, you want to study, Lu Juren is more knowledgeable than your previous master, you want to find a mother, he also has the means and conditions than me, not to mention that in the Lu family, you can make slaves and maids. I just told you plainly, do you want to go to the Lu family?"

Mu Ge'er couldn't refute it at once, he didn't know what was wrong with him, he had always lived according to the principle that people did not destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves, if there were two choices, he would definitely choose the best, he wanted to climb up, he wanted to survive, he wanted to live better than anyone else! The Gu family and the Lu family are definitely better than the Lu family, but ...... But the Gu family is ugly, and he said in a muffled voice: "I want to study with Lu Juren...... But I want to be with you too. ”

"I'll see you when I get a chance. Gu Xuezhou said.

Coax a three-year-old child! Mu Ge'er thought angrily and kicked him.

Gu Xuezhou grabbed his foot with only socks, put shoes on him, and picked up Brother Mu'er, "Have you lost your temper enough, I'll send you back." ”

Mu Ge'er looked at him, but he didn't say anything to refute it, even if he was as smart as him, he couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, he was greedy, he was selfish, and he wanted everything.

But when he can only want the same, he should choose the better.

But which is better?

Gu Xuezhou had just gone out with him in his arms, and the people of the Lu family were already in a hurry to find him. Brother Mu was obediently carried away by a maidservant, he looked back, Gu Xuezhou stood alone under the moon and looked at him, and waved at him, Brother Mu didn't want to pay attention to him. He felt that the ugly monster didn't know each other, and he hated that he didn't like him enough, except for his mother, his second favorite in his heart was the ugly monster!

After a false alarm, he settled down again, Mu Ge'er leaned on the handmaid's shoulder in a daze, he smelled the fragrance of the girl, but it was not as good as the ugly smell, which made him irritable. The lanterns illuminated all the way, the Lu family carved the delicate window lattices of flowers, birds and animals, the courtyard with flowers and trees, and then to the bedroom, a big hanging flower pillar corridor pulled out the bed, the silk yarn reflected the soft light and swayed, he lay in, and saw that on the high table, there was a moon in the sweet white porcelain vase of the beauty's neck, and the snow-white petals, only the edge seemed to be smeared with rouge floating with light red, Mrs. Lu gently comforted him a few words, he couldn't listen to a word and was perfunctory at will.

The Lu family's house was so beautiful, the bed was so big and so beautiful, the bedding was soft and warm, and the incense burner on the table was lit with soothing incense, but he still couldn't sleep.

…… Only by holding the ugly monster can he sleep peacefully.
