A person dressed as a small servant next to him walked over, glanced at Gu Zhirong's parked carriage, and said impatiently: "What are you doing, you haven't stopped for so long and haven't left?

Cai's mother couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and her face fell. After all, she is an elderly person, from the capital to this village, the road is not smooth, the carriage is so upturned that her waist is about to break, and now it seems that she has found the wrong person, and if she goes around a few more times, does she want her old life?

Gu Zhirong saw Cai's mother's thoughts, opened the curtain on the car, and said to the little guy: "Dare to ask the little brother, is this the home of Dr. Wu Yang and Wu?"

When the little guy heard this, he was stunned for a moment: "You are here to find the master?"

This is indeed Dr. Wu's home, and Cai's mother immediately came to life again, and said busily: "This is really Dr. Wu's home, thank God, I finally didn't run in vain." That's right, we are from the Yuanning Marquis Mansion in the capital, and Dr. Hu greeted your master a few days ago and asked us to come and see a doctor. ”

The little maid glanced at them suspiciously, and said, "Since it was introduced by Imperial Doctor Hu, then please come with me." ”

Li Quanfu's family took off the low stool and helped Cai's mother to get out of the car, and then, Gu Zhirong and Cai Qing also got out of the carriage one after another. The little servant entered through a side door next to him, and through a long hallway, he came to a large courtyard.

The little servant asked Gu Zhirong and his party to wait outside, and went straight inside to report.

"This Doctor Wu has such a big posture!" Cai's mother is used to being powerful on weekdays, but in the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, no one dares to let her stand and wait. Now that I have arrived at the house of such a country doctor, I have to wait. She still had to stand and wait, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable. The previous arrogance came up.

Gu Zhirong said with a smile: "Mother Cai, don't worry, if you have sore feet standing up, you can go to the stone bench on the side and sit down." In my opinion, this Dr. Wu must be afraid of guilt, since we have a request for others, it is better not to embarrass him. ”

Cai's mother said curiously: "Fifth Miss, how do you see that this Doctor Wu is afraid of guilt?"

Gu Zhirong pointed to the front yard and said with a smile: "This Dr. Wu is good at incurable diseases, and he must be well-known among his neighbors. Otherwise, how could Imperial Doctor Hu get acquainted with him and introduce us to him? Since he is a doctor with some fame, he should have a good place to see a doctor and open his door to do business, so that he can be worthy of the status of a famous doctor, right? What is it if it's not guilty?"

After saying this, Cai's mother nodded yes.

Gu Zhirong said again: "Moreover, I think that Mrs. Wu must be good at gambling, so she opened such a casino." ”

Cai's mother's face was a little unnatural: "Miss Fifth is right. His eyes involuntarily glanced towards the front yard.

Soon there were footsteps. Gu Zhirong looked up and saw a middle-aged man with a beard and about forty years old walking over with a shy belly.

The man walked up to Gu Zhirong and the others. The attitude was very respectful: "May I ask how many of you are from the Yuanning Marquis Mansion?"

Cai's mother preemptively said: "You are Dr. Wu, right? I see that your business here is quite prosperous." ”

Dr. Wu's face turned a little red, and he said, "This is opened by Neizi." It's not about the old man, it's not about the old man. "Wiped the sweat. Hurriedly invited Cai's mother, Gu Zhirong and others to enter.

Dr. Wu asked Cai Qing to help Gu Zhirong to see a doctor in the back, and Cai's mother sat alone in the main hall, drinking tea while listening to the cheers coming from time to time in the front yard, and became more and more distracted.

The little guy who greeted them at the door walked in, glanced at Cai's mother, rolled his eyes, and said, "This mother, the villain heard my master say that he received a letter from Imperial Doctor Hu a few days ago, talking about Miss Guifu's illness. After reading the letter, my lord called it tricky. The villain thinks that Miss Guifu's illness will take more time to see a doctor before she can diagnose it correctly and prescribe the right medicine. Mom is bored sitting here, why don't you go to the front yard with the villain to see the excitement?"

Cai's mother is a good gambler, and she has good luck recently, and she can hear the unique shouting of the casino coming from the front yard, and her hands have long been itchy. However, thinking about the purpose of his trip, he forcibly held back, shook his head and said: "The old body is still not going, my young lady is still inside, if there is anything, if the young lady calls me and I am not there, it will be difficult to explain to my wife." ”

The little girl was not reluctant, looked at her and said: "You don't need to go through the corner door to the front yard here, just pass through the small door next to it, which is very convenient." ”

After saying that, the little guy took care of himself and left.

There was no one in the hall, and Cai's mother was a little like pins and needles, took the teacup, and put it down. After all, he stood up and walked towards the small door that the little guy had said.

"Doctor Wu", who had been watching the movement outside in the inner room, suddenly became excited, and winked at Gu Zhirong by the window: "Fifth Miss, we can go." ”

Since Gu Zhirong entered the inner room, he went straight to the window, looking at the small river outside the window and motionless. Hearing the words of "Dr. Wu", she was not surprised at all, and asked, "Are you going to inspect the goods?"

Cai Qing looked at the two of them in shock, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle they were playing.

"Doctor Wu" chuckled, the laughter was very young, it sounded like the voice of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from Miss Gu." ”

As he spoke, he straightened up and tore off the beard that was sticking to his chin with his own hands. Cai Qing was dumbfounded, they looked like a teenager, where was there still half a middle-aged man who was shy just now?

Qin Lu looked at Gu Zhirong and said, "Miss Gu, our son-in-law has been waiting at the dock for a long time. ”

Gu Zhirong didn't talk nonsense, and looked around: "It's impossible for us to go out through the front door, the goal is too big, there should be a secret passage here, right?"

Qin Lu's eyes once again showed surprise and appreciation, and he had to admit that the young Miss Gu Wu in front of him was indeed extraordinary.

He nodded and said, "Miss Gu is absolutely right, there is a secret passage here, let's go out from here." ”

As he spoke, he walked to a row of bookcases, pressed his hand on a protruding object, and turned it slightly, only to hear a "squeak" sound, and the bookcase retreated backwards, revealing a small door.

Cai Qing was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth: "Miss, there is really a secret way." ”

Gu Zhirong pulled Cai Qing into the secret and said, "Let's go quickly, time is running out." ”

Qin Lu also dodged in, and then slapped on a mechanism on the inside, and the cabinet door slowly closed again, matching the wall perfectly, and outsiders couldn't tell that this was actually the entrance to the secret passage.

Qin Lu took the fire fold, and under his guidance, Gu Zhirong and the others walked down the stone steps one by one, and walked for about half an hour, and the slightest light came in from the outside, obviously reaching the entrance of the cave. (To be continued......)
