Chapter 9: Disguise

There are many stone paths in the back garden, which are hidden in the greenery, quiet and chic. In the distance www.biquge.info there was a burst of talking, the sound was small, but the footsteps were noisy.

"Miss, we're all back, do we want to go out again?"

"Of course, what did I come back for, just to go out again."

"But ......"

"It's nothing."

"But Madame said......"

"I said when did you become such a mother-in-law, if you don't want to go with me, then you can stay at home, and you won't have to ...... again"

"I'll go, I'll go."

Tang Guxi was wearing a scarlet skirt, with his hands behind his back, his eyes were like a crescent moon, his eyebrows were like green willows, and the green silk like a waterfall fell on his shoulders, and there was only a moon-blue hosta on his head. Behind him was a nervous Yuming.

"Shhh Tang Guxi put his hand to his lips and motioned for Yuming to stop sighing.

The two walked through the bamboo forest, walked out of the back garden, and came to the wing. Tang Guxi pushed open the door, pulled Yu Ming in, turned his head and looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one in the garden, he hurriedly closed the door.

When the door was closed, she turned around and rummaged through the cabinets, looking around for the two robes that she hadn't worn for half a year. Although Yuming said that she did not dare to disobey Madame's words, she knew the temperament of the young lady very well, and once she made a decision, it would be the same. Now that such a heinous thing has happened again, it is impossible to stop the young lady now. Thinking like this, she simply let it go, and carefully looked for the two clothes.

"Hey, miss, did you put it in the storage room? I remember that Madame was very angry and wanted to take her clothes away, but after a little fuss, Madame gave up. In the end, it seems to be ...... Lost in that storage room. Yuming crawled out from under the bed, her head and face dusty, and asked Tang Guxi with big eyes.

Tang Guxi thought back for a moment, suddenly clapped his hands, and said excitedly: "That's right, it's in the storage room!" Yuming, you have done me a great favor, but I didn't hurt you in vain! With that, he slipped out of the door and ran to the storage room next door.

"Miss, you...... Pull me out first! Yuming cried out with a sad face.

In less than a stick of incense, the two had already changed their clothes. In the brass mirror, a woman wearing a cyan Luo shirt and white cloth robe, with jade pendant and hair tied up around her waist, smiled lightly, her eyes were like stars, and her teeth were like snow. The original delicate light makeup was wiped off, and the plain makeup was matched with this long gown, showing the heroic style.

Next to her, there is also a woman wearing a moon-white man's dress, compared to Tang Guxi, this body is a little simple, and Yu Ming is short and thin, this robe always looks fat on the body, and it really doesn't fit. But there is no way to do it, it's okay if she doesn't laugh, but this jade tea will show her stuffing with a mouth, so she firmly remembered it - whenever she goes out in disguise in a crowded place, she can't talk without talking, and try not to cause trouble for the young lady.

"Alright, let's go!"

"Miss." Yuming stopped her.

"What's wrong again?" Tang Guxi walked to the door, turned around and looked impatient.

Yu Ming cautiously pointed to the wall, Tang Guxi turned her head over, and her eyes fell on a long dusty whip, which had been given to her by her master Zou Li a long time ago, in order to defend herself. But when it came to Gu Xi's hands, the role of self-defense was not much demonstrated, and the key was to teach all the bad guys in her eyes.

The corners of her mouth curled, she walked over and took off the long whip, took the handkerchief handed by Yu Ming and wiped the whip clean, and stared at it from beginning to end before she put it away with satisfaction and held it in her hand.

"If one day I don't have you by my side, I really don't know how many mistakes I will make." The two stepped out the door, looked left and right again, and cautiously walked towards the back garden.

"Miss, what do you say, I won't leave you. Anyway, I'm not married, and in this life, I'll be where you are, so you won't worry about making mistakes! Yuming followed her, lowering her voice.

Tang Guxi chuckled, "Don't marry? You said that if you don't marry, you won't marry? Madame doesn't think so, when the time comes, I'll beg my mother to find you a good family......"

"Miss!" Yuming's cheeks were hot for a while, and she was ashamed and anxious.

Seeing her appearance, Tang Guxi couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh for a while, and then comforted: "Okay, okay, I'm really angry when I laugh with you." Only then did Yuming regain her joy.

The two of them stotted through the bamboo forest to the edge of the fence.

The Gongsun Hou family in the front hall was sitting at a table full of feasts, laughing and drinking and eating with Tang Yuanwai, Tang Yuanwai paid a lot of money for this hospitality, and the wine and food on this table were all the best he tried his best to come over, and his daughter's birthday did not necessarily have such pomp.

All these preparations are not only because of the noble status of the Hou Ye and the grand reputation of the national ceremony, but also for a very important personal reason, which is what the two are discussing at the wine table.

Although Hou Ye and Tang Yuanwai met for the first time, the two actually communicated a lot at all, mainly through the people below. The two of them knew that they were joining forces to transport the goods to the person sitting across the table, but they behaved politely and as if they were alive.

What they discussed was nothing more than the operation of property and private goods, each of which exerted its ability and benefited both. It is not surprising that the collusion of the interests of local officials and businessmen from all walks of life has always existed, especially those who were born in Vanity Fair. For example, Gongsun Han sat on the side and quietly listened to the words exchanged between his father and Uncle Tang, and did not forget to pour wine for his father.

But Gongsun Rong didn't have the heart to sit down anymore, he didn't know about this matter, he didn't know about the profits and losses in his family, even if he didn't care about it, he knew a little bit about it. And now that he was allowed to sit here and listen generously to the business and goods business, he was not interested at all, so he simply took his leave, and walked out of the room to find something to shirk.

The scenery in this garden is so beautiful, why don't I come and enjoy it, and listen to some unbounded gossip there?

With this in mind, he paced through the lobby, through the quiet and winding corridor, and came to the bamboo forest where he stopped.

The swallows chirped around the cornices overhead, hovering and chirping towards the bamboo forest, their wings fluttering the bamboo leaves, and the sound of birds and bamboo leaves swaying rustled, forming a melodious song of its own.

Gongsun Rong's face was gone, and a smile gradually appeared. I couldn't help but admire Uncle Tang's daughter, who regarded it as the pearl of her palm, a little girl in the boudoir, who actually dressed up this ordinary garden like a peach fairyland.

"Miss, slow down, I'm about to fall."

"I said why are you so stupid, it's not the first time, and you're so clumsy......"

"I, I forgot."

"Don't talk about it, ...... it quickly"

Gongsun Rong held his breath and contemplated, and after noticing that someone was whispering in the depths of the bamboo forest, he hurriedly walked over with curiosity and vigilance.
