Halfway through, when passing by the Hanging Ji Temple, Gu Zhirong suddenly saw a carriage in front of him stuck in the mud, and the driver who was driving the carriage was pushing the carriage out of the mud, and at the same time, the people in the carriage also got down, and a young lady with a maid ring stood aside and watched.

Lu Shui's eyes were sharp, and he saw it at once, and said to Gu Zhirong: "Miss, look, the person standing in front of you seems to be the second lady of our house." ”

Gu Zhirong lifted the curtain and looked around, and sure enough, he saw a girl wearing a red and dark flower gauze shirt standing not far in front of her, standing in the drizzle, in the surrounding greenery, she was like a wild rose wet by rain and mist, beautiful and fragrant.

"Green water, you see how beautiful my second sister is. Gu Zhirong said sincerely.

Lu Shui said disapprerovingly: "Miss, you didn't find it, in fact, you yourself are very beautiful." The slave often hears the people below say that the young lady is getting more and more beautiful, and if it takes another two years, I am afraid that the second young lady will be compared to you!"

Gu Zhirong scolded lightly: "What are you talking about?" she suddenly remembered something and said, "Lushui, Mingyue, you guys are waiting here, I'm looking for the second lady to have something to say." ”

Lu Shui and Mingyue hurriedly helped Gu Zhirong out of the carriage, and then stood aside.

Gu Zhirong walked over and whispered behind the second lady Gu Yuanfang: "Second sister." ”

Gu Yuanfang looked back and was slightly surprised: "Fifth sister, why are you here?"

Gu Zhirong looked at the carriage: "Second sister, what's wrong with your car?"

Gu Yuanfang held back his anger and said, "I've fallen into the mud." During this time, I was really unlucky, and I thought of going to Hangji Temple to pray for the old lady. I never thought that I would encounter such a thing on the way back! Fifth sister, you say, what kind of bad luck has fallen in our house recently, and this kind of thing is happening!"

Gu Zhirong said: "Second sister." You don't have to worry, I went to see the old lady yesterday. The old lady's condition has stabilized, but the epidemic has come suddenly, and the old lady is very old, so she needs a period of recuperation to recover. ”

Gu Yuanfang's face showed a happy smile: "That's really good, my heart has been hanging for the past two days." I'm afraid that something will happen to the old lady. ”

Gu Zhirong said with a smile: "Early this morning, the second sister rushed to the Hanging Ji Temple to offer incense and pray to the old lady despite the light rain. If the old lady knew, she would definitely say that she didn't hurt you in vain. ”

Gu Yuanfang sighed: "I hope the old lady can really get better, so that I can feel at ease." At this point, she looked away. There was a hint of melancholy and worry in his eyes.

Gu Zhirong didn't see her abnormality. She was still worried about the old lady's body, and comforted: "Second sister, you really don't have to worry, the old lady will definitely get better." ”

Gu Yuanfang didn't seem to hear what Gu Zhirong said, and was stroking the pendant on his hand for a while.

Gu Zhirong lowered her head inadvertently, her eyes fell on the pendant in her hand, and she was stunned: "Second sister, this pendant ......"

Gu Yuanfang was taken aback. Looking at the pendant in her hand, even she didn't know it. When did I take this thing out? She hurriedly covered up: "Oh, this pendant...... Fifth sister, this is the pendant on my piano, I, I like it very much, so I always carry it with me. ”

Gu Zhirong didn't speak.

Gu Yuanfang became embarrassed all of a sudden, hurriedly hid the pendant behind him, and said, "Fifth sister, where are you going this early in the morning?"

Gu Zhirong didn't answer her directly, but looked around and said in a low voice, "Second sister, I have something to tell you." ”

The second lady was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Zhirong's unkind face, and "Geden" in her heart, looked around, and said, "Fifth sister, there is a small forest over there, it is very quiet, let's go there to talk." Then, she called Shen Gui and told her to watch here and not to follow.

Walking to the edge of the grove, Gu Yuanfang turned around, looked at Gu Zhirong and said, "Fifth sister, there is no one else here, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Gu Zhirong didn't talk nonsense, looked at Gu Yuanfang's eyes, and said straight to the point: "Second sister, where did the pendant in your hand come from?"

Gu Yuanfang was taken aback, his face suddenly turned snow-white, he involuntarily clenched the pendant in his hand, and muttered, "Fifth sister, are you...... What the hell are you talking about?"

Seeing Gu Zhirong looking at him with scrutinizing eyes, Gu Yuanfang said with a weak heart: "Fifth sister, didn't I say it, this pendant ...... This pendant was given to me by my second brother...... Well, it was sent by the second brother. ”

Gu Zhirong smiled, suddenly turned behind Gu Yuanfang, broke her hand, and snatched the pendant in her hand.

Gu Yuanfang was in a trance, where did he think that Gu Zhirong actually came to this hand, he couldn't help but be surprised, seeing that the pendant in his hand was taken away, he was busy grabbing it, and said urgently: "You hurry up and return the pendant to me." ”

Gu Zhirong quickly spread out the pendant in his palm, only glanced at it, and laughed: "Second sister, this pendant is so special, there is a 'star' word engraved in the middle." ”

She thought for a moment, then looked at Gu Yuanfang: "Second sister, since this is the pendant that the second brother gave you, then the one engraved on it must be your nickname." It's just, why haven't I heard that your nickname has a star in it?"

Gu Yuanfang was anxious and embarrassed, and said with a straight face: "Fifth sister, you didn't hear what I said, did you?

Gu Zhirong glanced at the pendant in his hand again, tilted his head sideways and thought again: "Is there this word in the prince's name, why haven't I heard of it?"

Gu Yuanfang saw the opportunity, snatched the pendant away, and protected it tightly on his chest: "You don't have to worry about my affairs!" After speaking, he turned around and left.

Gu Zhirong couldn't help but be angry, and shouted, "Second sister, you stop for me!"

Gu Yuanfang turned around and said coldly: "Fifth sister, I really don't have to worry about my affairs, you go away, don't worry about other people's affairs!"

Gu Zhirong couldn't help but say angrily: "Second sister, are you dizzy? When are you going to hide it from me, do you want to wait until the emperor is angry and sentences us of the Yuanning Marquis Mansion for a crime of bullying the monarch, will you tell me?"

Gu Yuanfang gritted his teeth, turned around and left.

Gu Zhirong said: "Second sister, I really help you, you have to believe me." ”

Gu Yuanfang stopped.

Gu Zhirong continued: "Second sister, I know you don't like the prince, you haven't liked it all the time, but the old lady and the eldest aunt are forcing you, so you are very bitter in your heart, I understand this." ”

Gu Yuanfang gritted her teeth, turned around, looked at Gu Zhirong and said, "I don't need your sympathy. ”

Gu Zhirong shook his head: "Second sister, I'm really not sympathizing with you. I know how you feel. However, since I already know about this matter, I will not fail to help you. “

Gu Yuanfang turned around suddenly, looked at Gu Zhirong with some surprise, and said, "Will you help me?"

Gu Zhirong walked over with a smile, pulled Gu Yuanfang up, patted her hand and said, "Okay, don't forget, we are sisters, if you have anything, I will definitely stand on your side and help you." But why would you rather keep things in your heart than tell me? ”

Gu Yuanfang looked at Gu Zhirong in a daze, tears finally welled up in her eyes, hugged Gu Zhirong tightly, and said in a low voice: "Good sister." (To be continued.) )
