Chapter 45: The Arrogant Maniac is Confused
Xu Dong lowered his head slightly, pushed open the door and went out, only to see Zhu Qi anxiously turning back and forth not far away. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Hall Master!" Zhu Qi saw Xu Dong coming out, and immediately walked up to him, asking with a concerned face, "...... How's it going?"
Xu Dong nodded, looking unwavering: "The Blood Returning Pill will work." She should be out of danger. ”
After Zhu Qi heard this, he looked obviously relieved: "That's good......"
Just as Xu Dong nodded, Zhu Qigang's relaxed mood became tense again, and his hanging heart once again reached his throat, and he asked with great concern: "Hall Master...... How should I explain this matter to the old hall master?"
Xu Dong looked into the distance with scattered eyes, raised his head and said casually, "It's okay." ”
====================
Sure enough, after about three hours, Gu Wanyan finally woke up gradually.
Xu Dong had been sitting at the head of her bed reading quietly, and when he heard the movement, he turned his head and saw her slowly open her eyes. Then Xu Dong smiled softly without surprise: "Finally woke up, have you slept enough?"
Gu Wanyan only felt dizzy in her head, and her whole body was as tired and heavy as if she had gone to another world. She slowly stretched out a hand from the quilt and gently rubbed her eyebrows, and said weakly, "I'm not dead......"
Xu Dong laughed when he heard this: "You, it's not so easy to die." ”
Gu Wanyan was still lying flat, closed her eyes vigorously, and said weakly: "My head hurts." ”
Xu Dong said helplessly: "It's normal to have a headache, just rest for a few days - you know, you are indeed almost dying." ”
Gu Wanyan nodded weakly, and then was silent for a long time before asking Xu Dong: "What about Gu Mo?
Xu Dong's expression changed, and he said lightly: "He's fine." ”
Gu Wanyan noticed a trace of displeasure hidden in Xu Dong's eyes, and quickly reacted, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Xu Dong sighed softly and said, "Where did you get so much courage to help him block the knife?"
Gu Wanyan turned her head to the other side, deliberately not looking at Xu Dong, and remained silent.
Xu Dong didn't ask anymore, but said: "That's it, Gu Mo has nothing to do with him, and he is not in Dongcheng now." ”
Gu Wanyan turned her head back silently, paused and said a little lost, "Did he go to Luoshui?"
Xu Dong nodded.
Gu Wanyan stopped talking, and quietly looked at the top of the bed as if thoughtful.
Xu Dong closed the book in his hand with both hands, then stood up and said to her, "You can't get out of bed and walk around now, I'm afraid you'll have to stay in Yunjitang these days." ”
Gu Wanyan smiled: "Then I'm causing you trouble again." ”
Xu Dong glanced at her angrily: "What kind of official language is this talking about?" ”
===============
The next day, an uninvited guest came to Yunjitang.
Of course, it was Xu Dong who treated him as an uninvited guest.
Su Qiu walked back and forth at the door of Yunji Hall early in the morning, saying that she wanted to take a look at Gu Wanyan. Her standing attracted the attention of all the patients who came and went.
Xu Dong knew what Su Qiu had done to Gu Wanyan for revenge, and he was wary of this girl in his heart, so he said that he would not let her visit Gu Wanyan. However, Su Qiu stood unremittingly at the door of Yunjitang for more than an hour, and Xu Dong, helpless, waved his sleeves and decided to go out to find out for himself.
It was already close to noon, and I saw Su Qiu standing under the sun, without the slightest intention of leaving.
Xu Dong walked towards her and looked at the teenage girl with fierce eyes.
Su Qiu saw Xu Dong, lowered his head and said timidly, "Hall Master Xu Dong." ”
Xu Dong raised his eyebrows, and his tone was quite polite: "Is there anything you have to do here?"
Su Qiu quietly twisted the corners of his clothes and asked cautiously, "I...... I'd like to come and see the second wife. ”
Xu Dong smiled: "Oh, didn't I let someone tell you just now? ”
Su Qiu bit her lip and hesitated: "...... But, but I know that the second wife is awake......"
Xu Dong looked away speechlessly, and said coldly for a while: "You come with me." ”
Su Qiu was overjoyed and nodded frequently.
Walking to the room where Gu Wanyan was resting, Xu Dong said outside the door: "Wanyan, I'm in." ”
There was a faint sound of Gu Wanyan's "good" from inside, Xu Dong looked back at Su Qiu who was following him, and then pushed open the door and stepped in.
Su Qiu followed Xu Dong's footsteps a little timidly.
Gu Wanyan sat on the bed, her face was pale, the quilt was tightly covered, and she was holding a book in her hand and reading.
She put down the book and turned her head, first saw Xu Dong, and then saw Su Qiu behind Xu Dong, and asked strangely, "Su Qiu, why are you here?"
Su Qiu didn't speak with a complicated expression, but Xu Dong said coldly: "You see your second wife, can you go?"
Su Qiu saw that Xu Dong had given an eviction order, and opened his mouth in embarrassment and surprise, and stopped talking.
Gu Wanyan frowned slightly, and shouted Xu Dong's name dissatisfied: "Xu Dong." ”
Xu Dong looked at her seriously, and said with some anger: "You are soft-hearted again, aren't you? Your soft-hearted problem will kill you sooner or later." ”
Gu Wanyan pursed her lips helplessly, still without much energy, and her voice was not loud: "She is still a child." ”
Xu Dong was angry for a while, and glared at Gu Wanyan angrily for a long time without speaking, and then brushed his sleeves away. Before leaving, he turned his back to Gu Wanyan and said, "Call me if there is any situation, I'm outside." ”
When Gu Wanyan heard this, she couldn't help but smile gently, and her eyes bent into crescent moons: "Okay." ”
After the door was closed by Xu Dong, Su Qiu dared to walk slowly to Gu Wanyan's side and whispered, "Second wife...... How are you?"
Gu Wanyan smiled and shook her head: "It's okay anymore." ”
Su Qiu looked back cautiously, and then whispered, "Second wife, I have done as you say, and I have won the trust of the eldest wife." ”
Gu Wanyan thought for a while and said, "That's good—you must not tell others about this matter, the more people who know about it, the more dangerous it will be." ”
Su Qiu nodded seriously: "I know." ”
Gu Wanyan changed her words and asked, "Dongxue...... Is it buried?"
Su Qiu's gaze dimmed suddenly: "It's already buried, buried in my hometown." ”
Gu Wanyan sighed: "The festival mourns and changes." ”
Su Qiu nodded silently, and then said firmly and resentfully: "The murderer must be brought to justice...... Big lady, she's going to get the punishment she deserves, right?"
When Gu Wanyan heard this, she looked away unnaturally, and didn't look at Su Qiu's eyes with a little weakness, and only replied quietly: "It will definitely be." ”
After the Dongxue accident, Su Qiu cried and went to Gu Wanyan to say that Liu Fengxian was a murderer. Just when Gu Wanyan was still confused, Su Qiu told Gu Wanyan everything without concealment.
This can be traced back to when Liu Fengxian had a miscarriage and framed Gu Wanyan.
Su Qiu's family is poor, and Dongxue is the adopted daughter of Su Qiu's family since she was a child. These two girls, who grew up together and entered the Gu Mansion together, have a deep sisterhood, beyond the intimacy and dependence of blood relations. In order to let Su Qiu and Dong Xue help her perjury to frame Gu Wanyan, Liu Fengxian thought of a way to kidnap Su Qiu's own brother.
Su Qiu and Dong Xue both love their younger brothers, and they are forced to be anxious for a while - the poor family has no choice but to let people eat in the face of this kind of thing. In desperation, Su Qiu and Dongxue were forced to sell their conscience and help Liu Fengxian commit perjury in order to protect their younger brother's integrity.
Later, Gu Wanyan was released from prison safe and sound, and Su Qiu naturally couldn't continue to follow her, but she couldn't lose her job in the Gu Mansion, otherwise their family would starve to death sooner or later - so Su Qiu had to follow Liu Fengxian to do things.
After Gu Wanyan heard the truth of the incident at that time, it was impossible not to be shocked—shocked, and sympathetic to Su Qiu.
But Gu Wanyan turned her head, and she had a plan in her heart, and she had a conscience, and she didn't tell Su Qiu that the murderer was not Liu Fengxian, but turned to say: "I know that the murderer is the eldest wife, but we have no evidence." ”
At this point, Gu Wanyan and Su Qiu secretly made a plan together, in order to restrain Liu Fengxian, who didn't know what he was planning.
Withdrawing from her thoughts, Gu Wanyan suddenly remembered something, turned her head and asked Su Qiu, "Second son...... Has he returned?"
Su Qiu thought for a while and said, "It seems that I haven't come back." ‘
Gu Wanyan sighed melancholy.
She originally thought that after she woke up, the first person she saw would be Gu Mo. But Gu Mo was not only not by her side, but she didn't know where she went, and she didn't show up for a few days.
Oh, by the way, it's time to go to Luoshui.
Luoshui's matter is important, but Gu Wanyan still can't help but think a little selfishly, why can't he let go of those things for his own sake?
She thought that Gu Mo could do it.
Su Qiu added: "Second wife, you don't know, there have been some very unpleasant things in the house these days. ”
"What's the matter?"
Su Qiu said: "I don't know the specifics, but I know that there is a big problem with the accounts of the main store. The old man was very angry, and after a thorough investigation, he knew that the problem was at the level of the eldest son, and now he is thoroughly investigating the eldest prince. ”
Gu Wanyan listened, and her eyes rolled. Gu Ran has a cowardly personality and is honest, so he will never dare to steal money in the family business. That-if the problem is Gu Ran, it is better to say that the problem may be Liu Fengxian.
She pretended to be calm and said, "Okay, I got it." If there is anything else going on in the house these days, you have to come and tell me every day. ”
Su Qiu said, "Okay...... But Xu Dong Hall master him, he ......"
Gu Wanyan smiled: "It's okay, I'll explain it to him clearly." ”
As soon as Su Qiu heard that Gu Wanyan was going to tell Xu Dong about this, she was anxious: "Ah....."
Gu Wanyan saw through her careful thoughts and comforted: "You put ten thousand hearts, Xu Dong is your own person." ”
Su Qiu thought about it, it was true that the second wife and the hall master Xu Dong had always had a good relationship and were like brothers. Then, without thinking about it, she somehow blurted out: "Second wife...... Compared with the second son, who is more of his own person?"
When Gu Wanyan heard this question, she was stunned for a moment, and she didn't know how to answer.
Su Qiu realized that she had said the wrong thing, panicked, and hurriedly explained: "I, I didn't mean that..... I'm stupid, Su Qiu damn it!"
As usual, Gu Wanyan would definitely smile at her and say, it's okay.
But this time, Gu Wanyan fell into deep thought.
Gu Mo, once you approached me step by step, I think I can sometimes see you through.
But now, as I approach you step by step, why can't I understand you?
