Chapter Seventy-Two: Investigation

On the way to the courtyard of the second lady, there were two subordinates, and one of them said: "Brother, you said that the second lady wants to know if the master is not there, just come and ask yourself, let the two brothers investigate here." But brother, do you feel that there are still people in that room, I seem to hear someone talking on the bed? ”

Another older subordinate patted his head with his hand back and said, "How many times have I told you, I want to call Mrs., Mrs., don't be a second lady!" ”

"Then she is obviously the second lady," said the subordinate who was beaten on the head, and was still a little aggrieved.

"Let me ask you, how many ladies are there in this mansion now?"

"The eldest lady is gone, and the second lady is left," the man still didn't understand.

"Who pays you monthly silver?"

"Second lady, isn't the second lady in charge of everything in the house?"

"Stupid, forget it, now the second lady is in charge of the house, you care about her big two anyway, there is only one lady in our house, you call Mrs. right, you will do whatever Mrs. asks you to do, and Mrs. only let us go and see if the master is in the study, and the side didn't say anything, you kid don't talk too much, if the people know more, it's not a good thing" The older man has experience teaching him the way of survival.

"It seems to be such a reason, well, brother, I will listen to you in the future," said the person who was preached as if he was enlightened.

"That's right, just stand and listen to me and my wife talk in a moment," said the older man in a well-fashioned manner.

After a while, the two of them entered the room of the second lady Su Wanru, Su Wanru sat on the embroidered stool in front of the table and watched, hung his head and stood aside waiting for the two subordinates to reply, and asked slowly: "Have you seen the master when you send the couch?" ”

"Back to Mrs., when we went, we didn't see the master"

"You mean to say that the master is not in the study?" Su Wanru suddenly felt something bad in her heart

"No, when we went, the curtain on the bed was lowered, and the old man hadn't gotten up yet," the older man replied.

"Oh? And that's how you came back? Su Wanru's heart was full of doubts, although Guo Jinghai must stay in the study every night on weekdays, but he will not go out of the study all day long in the mansion like this, and he hasn't gone to the flower hall for dinner for two days in a row, should he tell Su Hequn the news? Are you suspicious?

"How can that? We hadn't done what Madame had told us, so how could we come back like this, and about half an hour later we snuck around to the back window of the study to take a look. ”

"And what did you all see?" Su Wanru asked nervously

"By the time we got to the back of the study, the master had already gotten up, and we saw him reading a book in front of the bookshelf," replied the subordinate, as if he was telling a secret.

"Have you ever seen that it's indeed the master?" Su Wanru asked

"This, I only saw that the clothes and hat were indeed the master's, but the master had just stood with his back to us for a while, and then let the money rush to the bed, as if to say that the master was sick."

"Well, I also feel that the master has not been out of the study for the past two days, is it not good for him, so I let you go to explore, okay, you can take this idea and eat it, no one is allowed to make a noise about today's matter" Su Wanru knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he looked at the fruit on the table with his eyes, and sent the two subordinates away.

The two subordinates took the fruit and retreated.

Su Wanru had already gotten the news from Su Hequn that An Lihua had returned with the Dragon Fire Order, and Su Hequn also asked her to pay close attention to the entry and exit of the personnel of the Guo Mansion, as well as Guo Jinghai's movements.

Is Guo Jinghai really in the study? At first, Su Wanru guessed that there was no one in the study, and all this that Laicai did was just a maze, so it seemed that there was really someone in the study. But is this person Guo Jinghai? The more Su Wanru thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she immediately rushed into the study to see if the person in the study was Guo Jinghai, but she also knew that Guo Jinghai's people around the study would definitely not let her in.

Su Wanru thought about it and suddenly had an idea, if Guo Jinghai was really sick, it didn't make sense that his precious son would ignore it, and wasn't there still an old friend monk living in the house? Su Wanru thought to herself: I want to see if what is hidden in the study is a human or a ghost.

At this time, Guo Yuanzhi had already gone to the academy, and Su Wanru waited patiently until dinner and came to the flower hall. After a while, Guo Yuanzhi and the master of dust cessation both entered the flower hall, Guo Yuanzhi waited for a long time and didn't see Guo Jinghai come out, so he said: "Since Daddy is not here, there is no need to pretend here" and said that he was about to leave.

"Don't go, who said that your father is not here, your father has been bedridden in the study for almost two days, and you didn't even say that you went to visit, how did you become a son of man?" Su Wanru suddenly changed her previous gentleness and asked aggressively.

Guo Yuanzhi will only return home in the evening, he only thought that Guo Jinghai could not come back early because of something, and he never thought that his father was sick. After hearing Su Wanru's words, he immediately wanted to get up and go to Guo Jinghai's study to visit.

"Wait a minute, your father's study is like a cage and no one is allowed to enter, you don't know, I have made ginseng soup stew in the kitchen, let's go together in a while." Su Wanru put on a gentle face again and said resentfully.

When Guo Yuanzhi heard that his father was sick, he only blamed himself for being careless, and he hadn't seen his father for two days, and he hadn't even thought about it here. Guo Yuanzhi sat down obediently, picked up the bowl and ate indiscriminately, not fighting against Su Wanru for the first time.

"Old man, why don't you go over and take a look at Huang Qi's technique for a while?" Jiechen didn't really care about Guo Jinghai that much, but Guo Jinghai sent someone to inform him that there was news of Fuhu, so that although he waited in the house, he didn't see Fuhu's shadow all day.

Guo Jinghai knew Fu Hu's life experience, and when he thought of this, he was very worried about what happened to Fu Hu, after all, he thought that so many people wanted Fu Hu to die back then, and it was he and his senior brother who secretly hid Fu Hu in the temple to raise him to such a big age.

The three of them hastily finished dinner and walked towards Guo Jinghai's study. Before I got to the study, I was stopped.

"Bastard, I'm going to see Daddy, why are you holding me back? Put away your broken rules, those rules are for outsiders, I'm my father's son! If you dare to stop it again, be careful to let your father sell you all," Guo Yuanzhi scolded unhappily.

Except for the money, everyone didn't know that Guo Jinghai was not in the study, and after listening to Guo Yuanzhi's words, they didn't dare to really stop him, for fear that Guo Yuanzhi would really sell him to his father. I had to say: "If the old man blames it"

"If the master is to blame, isn't there still us?" Su Wanru had long heard that Guo Yuanzhi was talking about herself to insiders and outsiders, but as long as she could go to the study, she couldn't take care of it so much.

Laicai saw Guo Yuanzhi arguing with his subordinates at the door of the study, and as soon as the subordinates got out of the way, he hurriedly entered the study and said: "Oh no, no, the second lady is here with the little boy and the dust master."
