Chapter Seventy-Three: It Can Be Encountered
Where is this?
Gu Mandong sat up and looked at the completely unfamiliar room in front of him, puzzled.
His neck moved slightly, and he couldn't help but gasp.
I really don't know who did it, it's so ruthless that her neck feels like it's about to break.
Finally relieving himself, Gu Mandong got up, only to find that the coarse cloth clothes he had put on his body had now been changed into a silk skirt with broken flowers on a white background, and a pair of peach blossom satin cloth shoes were placed on the side of the bed.
Where the hell is this?
Gu Mandong put on his shoes and got out of bed, but when he opened the door, he was nowhere to be seen.
"Anyone?" said Kumandon, standing on the edge of the hallway, trying to shout.
A moment later, I heard footsteps, and only then did two women in dark blue dresses hurry up.
Gu Mandong looked at the two slightly petite women who came over, and couldn't help but have a thought, could it be that she had already left the White Sand Country? If it weren't for that, how could she see such a petite and good-looking maid coming.
"The slave Jing'er (Jie'er) has seen the girl. The two maids blessed their bodies and saluted, and signed up for themselves.
"Where is this, how could I be here?" asked Kumandon, putting away the look of surprise and asking in a deep voice.
"Returning to the girl, this is Taoyuan, the girl is a distinguished guest brought back by the master, the slave and the maid are specially serving the girl, and the girl needs to be instructed. I just hope that the girl will not leave the peach orchard, unless the master agrees, the slaves and maids will be responsible, and please forgive the girl. ”
Taoyuan? I haven't heard of it. However, the girl named Jing'er mentioned that their master brought her back. This means that the other party purposefully knocked her unconscious and robbed her.
However, she did not remember who she had offended. Let the other person treat her like this.
Besides, even if you really offend people, is this treatment too good?
The dress on her body alone is worth a lot of money, and in this hot day, she doesn't feel hot, which shows its value.
At least Gu Mandong had never worn such good clothes, neither in this life nor in previous lives.
"Your master is ......"
"Girl, forgive me. The identity of the master needs to be told to the girl by the master, and it is inconvenient for the slave and maid to talk more. Jie'er responded, and the two girls respectfully maintained the sense of distance they should have.
Look at the two of them like this. Gu Mandong knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he simply asked where the owner was in the other party's mouth?
As a result, she still didn't know what to ask, so she didn't have the idea of continuing to ask.
Gu Mandong was asked to stay in the peach orchard and not go out, and the outside door was also locked. Even the walls are higher than the homes of ordinary people. It is more than three meters high, and it is impossible to climb the wall.
It can be said that in the entire Nuoda peach orchard, there are only three of them, although the scenery of the peach orchard is good, in Gu Mandong's eyes, it is just a cage with a better environment.
Gu Mandong is really not in a good mood at the moment.
Finally, when it got dark, the door of the peach orchard opened, but it was just a sumptuous dinner, and the people waited for the future after the things were delivered. When Kumandong finished eating, the other party took the things down. The door was closed again.
Gu Mandong waited and waited, and when it was time, the master of this garden came.
"It's you. Gu Mandong looked at the man in front of him and frowned.
"Are you satisfied with this?" said the other party who sat down opposite Gu Mandon, waved off the two maids, and said.
"What do you mean by that, knocking me unconscious, that's how you should treat your life-saver, can I say you're revenge?" said Kumandon with a cold voice and a tiger face.
That's right, sitting opposite Gu Mandong and sending someone to knock her unconscious and kidnap her, the person who was placed under house arrest here is none other than the man he rescued in the blue ice lake that day.
Knowing that the price of saving people is house arrest, Gu Mandong would never cause trouble for himself.
At that time, there were other ships in the distance, and I knew that I should not have caused trouble for myself if I had handed them over to someone else at that time.
"I just wanted to repay you for saving your life, but the people below were a little rude, so I accidentally knocked you unconscious and sent you here. I've already punished the other person, if you have anger in your heart, I can call someone in, and then you decide how to get angry, how?"
"Come less. I don't mind being knocked unconscious, but why are you putting me under house arrest? Is house arrest your way of repaying me?"
"This ...... As a last resort, I didn't let you leave because I didn't want to cause you trouble, so I told my subordinates not to let you out of Taoyuan. If you don't like to leave, please stay for two days and we will see you off. Believe me, I just want to repay the favor, not seek revenge. ”
Gu Mandong pursed his lips, he was angry before because it was very inexplicable, but now the other party also apologized, and Gu Mandong could also see that the other party had a hard time.
What's more, the people are also the celebrities next to the lord of Baisha Country, and they are also people with status.
It's not easy to apologize like this, but if she cares about it, it's too childish.
"I hope Your Excellency will be the talker. After two days, please send me away. ”
"It's nature. ”
With the other party's promise, Kumandong also relaxed.
Although the two didn't talk much, at least the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
And Gu Mandong also learned that this person's name was secret, saying that it was called Mu Dan, as for whether this is the other party's real name, anyway, he didn't plan to have a deep relationship, so he didn't have to worry too much.
Mu Dan explained that Jing'er and Jie'er, the two maids, were good to serve, and left by themselves.
The next morning, Gu Mandong was still eating breakfast, but the gate of the peach orchard opened, and a group of people swarmed in, carrying three large boxes, six people each holding a tray, the contents of the plate were covered with red cloth, and three other people were holding a solid wooden box and following behind, and a mighty group of people came to Gu Mandong like this.
"Girl, this is the master's heart. A tall woman in her early thirties had a faint smile on her face, and after saluting Kumandon, she waved her hand to reveal a pile of things behind her.
Seeing her wave of her hand, a maid immediately stepped forward and opened the red cloth of the tray and the lid of the large and small wooden boxes in front of her.
I saw that all these big and small things were in front of me.
Three large boxes of clothes. The pearl agate jade of the three wooden boxes, as well as six sets of graceful and luxurious delicate head and face suits, were placed in front of Gu Mandong so brightly. She was amazed.
So much stuff, how much should it be worth?
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, maybe it is more than that.
With such a large pile of valuable things in front of him, Gu Mandong was a little frightened.
Nothing to offer courtesy, either treachery or theft, even if it is a life-saving grace, the things that this Mu Dan sent are too much.
There are so many things that even rival the value of all the belongings of a small and large-scale family.
This Mu Dan is even a celebrity around the lord of the White Sand Country. That's too rich, isn't it?
Gu Mandong didn't think it was something that someone else had given her.
Looking at these valuable items, Gu Mandong couldn't help but be a little curious, what is the identity of this Mu Dan.
No matter how much the White Sands Kingdom attaches importance to psychicists. Even if the psychic master is made the national teacher, it is impossible for the national teacher to have such a lot of property that is squandered at will.
"It's too valuable, I can't take it, please take it back. Tell your master a word on your behalf. The effort of raising hands is not enough to worry about teeth, such a reward, it is over. ”
Gu Mandong withdrew his gaze and said this after a moment.
Turning his mouth to refuse such a large fortune, Gu Mandong couldn't help but admire his courage.
"Girl, the master has commanded, these are only things outside the body, not enough to worry about. Compared to the girl's kindness. It's hard to reach 1 in 10,000. The master sent these to ask for peace of mind, hoping that the girl would not refuse. ”
"If it's just the mind. I can take this string of agate jewelry, and please take back the rest. Gu Mandong said as he pointed to a set of jewelry in six trays that was completely polished with red agate.
Compared with other gorgeous items, this set of head jewelry made entirely of red agate is low-key and acceptable, while others are too gorgeous, but they are flashy and undesirable, and they are too ostentatious.
"This ......"
"I'll explain the rest to your master, and please take it back. Gu Mandong spoke again, and after the other party hesitated for a moment, he bowed and saluted, leaving only the red agate head jewelry and left.
Jing'er and Jie'er couldn't understand why Gu Mandong refused, but they weren't stupid enough to ask.
That night, this Mu Dan reappeared in Taoyuan.
"Why refuse?" Mu Dan asked about the gift as soon as they met.
"If you don't use it, you naturally have to refuse. Gu Mandong replied lightly, and it was the truth.
Mu Dan didn't seem to expect such a reason, but he still didn't say anything and left again.
It's really in a hurry, and it's in a hurry.
In the dead of night, just after the hour, Gu Mandong was awakened from a nightmare and was scared into a cold sweat.
"How could you suddenly have such a dream?" said Gu Mandon, sitting on the edge of the bed, wiping his sweat and muttering to himself.
Since the night she left the dungeon last time, she had this dream, and almost two months have passed, and she has not had a similar dream again.
Unexpectedly, tonight, I suddenly dreamed of being almost killed by a black slave, the despair, the instant feeling of imminent death, as clear as if it had just happened.
At this moment, Gu Mandong was no longer sleepy, walked from the house to the door, and looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and his mood was a little better.
Now unable to sleep, Gu Mandong walked around, but before he knew it, he had reached the position in front of the courtyard wall.
Looking at the high wall, she has more than enough heart but not enough strength, and now she is really like a caged bird, she can't fly out if she wants to.
Sighing involuntarily, Gu Mandong was about to go back, but suddenly a voice from the wind made her slightly stunned and stood in place.
"Young master, it's late at night, it's time to rest. ”
Separated by a wall, Gu Mandong never expected to hear Jiang Hang's voice appear there.
If it hadn't been confirmed a long time ago, this place was still in the White Sand Country, and in a trance, she thought she had returned to the Moon Spirit Country.
"I wonder what happened to her now?" Jiang Tianluo said lightly, and a sigh sounded faintly.
"Young Master, now that the entire Qi County knows that the young lady has passed away, this coffin has been put into the ground, so people can't find flaws, why do you still care about the young lady, it's not worth it. Jiang Hang's words were faintly dissatisfied with Gu Mandon.
A man like his own young master, why should he be treated like this, he really feels unworthy for his young master.
"Don't blame her, it's my fault. If I hadn't snubbed her in the first place, maybe it would have been different. Her departure is also related to me. It's my own fault. It's just that even if she leaves, she shouldn't say goodbye. I'm not one of those who can make it difficult. ”
"Hmph, giving up the young master is the loss of the young lady, now the young master you have been ordered to send an envoy to the Baisha country to discuss the matter of an envoy to the Tianhai Empire, with the young master's appearance and talent, he has a better woman to match, maybe he has the opportunity to marry the princess of a country, and then let the young lady regret it." ”
Jiang Hang spoke angrily, but Jiang Tianluo did not answer, clearly not wanting to continue the topic.
Jiang Hang could only stop the topic and persuade him to go back to rest.
Outside the wall, the two left, but Gu Mandong stood in the corner with a strange expression, listening to the words of the two.
She really didn't mean to listen to the corner, but she listened accidentally.
Gu Mandong really didn't expect to meet Jiang Tianluo here, let alone that he was summoned to Yujing by the emperor of the Moon Spirit Kingdom for the sake of an envoy.
If she hadn't overheard this today, wouldn't she have run into Jiang Tianluo without psychological preparation when Zhang Youbao had solved the problem of the envoys and let her go with her.
How embarrassing it must have been.
Especially when she asked You Jinzhen for help, and after she was finalized as a 'dead wife', when she met Jiang Tianluo, the titular husband, again, that scene, thinking about it, there was a messy feeling in the wind.
Kumandon went back to his room to rest, and did not sleep well all night.
All she was thinking about was how she would react if she met Jiang Tianluo.
Thinking about it like this, when it was dawn, I was directly on top of a pair of panda eyes, and my eyes were bloodshot, which was a bit scary.
Finally took a nap at noon, but when he opened his eyes, it was the face of Shangmu Dan who suddenly came over, Gu Mandong was so frightened that he sat up, and then the cup was set.
got up too suddenly, and hit Mu Dan directly in the face, her forehead hit the other party's chin, and Gu Mandong covered his head in pain and gasped several times.
Mu Dan was also hit very lightly because of the sudden impact, and the lower lip flap was directly hit and bleeding, and he also covered his mouth in pain.
"It hurts. Kumandon whispered, holding his head and sitting cross-legged on the bed.
"Hiss......"
"Are you alright? After a little relief, Gu Mandong couldn't help asking, looking at the cracked corners of his lips, he felt pain.
Mu Dan glanced at Gu Mandong angrily.
"I've also seen a lot of girls from the Moon Spirit Country, all of them are gentle and skillful, slow and methodical in doing things, giving people a quiet feeling, why are you so frizzy when it's your turn?"
"What kind of frizz? I'm also my daughter's house, and when I suddenly woke up and opened my eyes, a man's face appeared, still close at hand, can I not have a normal reaction? But you, don't you say you're very busy? Why do you come to me in broad daylight, are you very idle?" Gu Mandong replied not to be outdone, but his hand did not stop, rubbing the corner of his forehead that was hurt. (To be continued.) )
