Chapter 65: The Mysterious Guest
When she saw the empty porcelain basin on the side, she couldn't help but feel moved. Two days ago, she burned a letter there.
If it was that person, would he help her?
Thinking of Yu Qin, she thought of a better candidate. Perhaps, it would be more reliable to count on him, but the most important point is, does he have manpower? Even if he had the right staff, would he be willing to help?
Anyway, try it first.
So that night, the Miss's Courtyard once again released a Kong Ming lantern.
However, she waited in vain all night this night, and Zhang Shujun did not come.
Didn't come the next day. Day 3...... Still not coming. He should have left Runan already, and he didn't see the lamp she put on.
And Gu Ming couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that the time for reconciliation was approaching, she had to make a decision immediately.
She picked up her pen again and wrote a letter, and the envelope was the same as last time, still writing the words "Erlang received".
She still handed the letter to Jin Ju, but when she sent the letter, she thought about it, and picked up a few water chestnuts from the pond in the yard, picked a few that were already ripe, washed them, and let Jin Ju send them. These water chestnuts were the last time she went out to play, Gu Rui insisted that she pick them up, but after they were fished ashore, she didn't want them again.
Gu Ming remembered that the pond in the young lady's courtyard had nothing but a few koi fish. I simply brought these water chestnuts back with the plant ~ one ~ book ~ read ~ novel ybdu strain, and threw them into the pool when I came back.
What I didn't expect was that they survived, and they seemed to be alive quite well. Maybe there will be more next year.
I wonder if he will be willing to help? Gu Ming was still a little worried. But now she is seriously understaffed, so she can only give it a try.
She was sleeping in a daze at night, and she suddenly had a strong sense of crisis, as if someone was staring at her in front of the bed. She jerked over and sat up, seeing the dark, blurry figure in front of the bed.
"Who?" Gu Ming wrapped herself tightly in a thin quilt and said in a low voice.
The figure came out of the darkness and stepped out into the moonlight, looking at her quietly.
Seeing the person coming clearly, Gu Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, lifted the quilt and walked down to the bed, and complained in a low voice: "Why did you come?" I've been waiting for you for days! ”
"Miss Gu seems to be what kind of person she will be? How did I not know that I had such an intimate relationship with you? Unexpectedly, the person who came said sarcastically, "If you recruit it, you will come, and if you wave it, you will go...... Do we have that relationship? ”
Gu Ming got up calmly, picked up the kettle on the table in the room, and poured herself a glass of water. Just as he was about to drink it, he heard his strange words, and couldn't help but be stunned, put down the cup, turned around, and looked at him fixedly.
"What do you have to do with me? Of course, you and I have nothing to do with it, so I don't understand, why are you here......" Gu Ming found a chair and sat down, looked at Zhang Shujun, and said coldly, "But, is it really okay?" ”
"Who told you that? I know you're looking for me to help you. But if you don't tell me what you know, I'm not going to help you anymore. Zhang Shujun also found a chair, dragged him to Gu Ming, sat down, stared at her, and said coldly.
Even if she is that person's daughter, she is also surnamed Gu. In his previous plans, he hadn't thought about helping her.
What to do with her, he hasn't gotten along with him yet. It's ridiculous that she just thought he was someone, and she actually instructed him.
You're welcome.
"I know that a lot of people now say that you come from a mysterious background...... But I know that you are from Yiliu Village. I'm not wrong, am I? Gu Ming looked at him squarely and said.
Zhang Shujun stared at her coldly, but an unknown light flashed in his pupils.
"Your aunt told you?" He asked.
Gu Ming said lazily: "You should have known that my biological mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me. I hadn't seen her, and she didn't leave a word...... In fact, she didn't even know that you were a Taoist. ”
"And how do you know?" Zhang Shujun leaned forward, like a devouring beast, staring at her tightly, like staring at a delicious prey.
Gu Ming was not worried at all. She smiled coldly and replied, "How did I find out?" Naturally, I have my way. Want me to tell you? You help me first. ”
Zhang Shujun looked at her with heavy eyes and didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, Gu Ming thought he was going to refuse, so he said, "How can I help?" ”
Gu Ming smiled slightly. Today is a test of Zhang Shujun, wanting to see where his bottom line is.
And the experiment is not successful, and his bottom line is far from being explored.
"Do you really want to destroy the Gu family?" Gu Ming suddenly asked.
Zhang Shujun was startled, stared at her with blazing eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to say?" ”
"If you're willing to help me, then I'm willing to help you." Gu Ming relaxed and said with a smile, "You must be looking for a helper...... Although the Gu family has fallen, it is not so easy to destroy a century-old family. You definitely need a helper. And what kind of helper is more suitable than me, who was born and raised in this family? ”
"You're a woman, and you're going to get married in a few years." Zhang Shujun was unmoved.
Gu Ming shook her head: "I'm only 9 years old this year, and I have at least 6 years left before I get married...... If the marriage doesn't go well, it can take seven or eight years, or even longer. Isn't this long enough time for you to get revenge? ”
"Then why are you helping me? The Gu family is your home. Zhang Shujun was not so easily persuaded.
Gu Ming answered this question more easily: "I think we should be for the same person...... Celestial Master, you should understand what I mean. ”
During this period of time, she has repeatedly recalled and scrutinized many details of her previous life, and she has slowly become busy. For example, why did the Gu family fall so completely in just a few years in the previous life?
Why did Lin Enzhi's career go so smoothly?
Why did he suddenly attack himself?
If she remembered correctly, she remembered that it was because, one of them had fallen...... So in less than half a month, her life has undergone earth-shaking changes. The man hadn't said it, but he had been guarding her.
She was like this in her previous life, so what will happen if she asks for it in this life?
She made bold assumptions and carefully verified. And today's performance of Zhang Tianshi told her that her guess was correct.
If he really needed to find someone to join forces to destroy the Gu family, then what kind of candidate would be more suitable than her? It just so happened that she also wanted to destroy the Gu family and avenge her last life and her Bao.
Thinking of Ah Bao, her heart hurt sharply as if it had been pricked by a needle.
"Okay, I agree...... But I'm coming to you today to say goodbye to you, I've been away from Kyoto for too long to be able to delay any longer. But I'll leave you with a hand...... With this, you can find him and ask him to do anything for you. Zhang Shujun said, took out a small black token from his arms, and handed it to her.
Gu Ming checked it, it was quite heavy, it should be made of black iron.
