Chapter 19: Misfortune

Xu is still remembering her motion sickness, on the way back, Gu Yunli could clearly feel that the carriage was moving very slowly, and wanted to say that she was not so inferior, and the motion sickness before was just because of poor physical condition. I was also afraid that I would miss the itinerary, and wanted Yan Qing to travel faster, but when I thought that the distance between several cities was not very far, and according to the current footsteps, I would definitely be able to enter the city after dark, so I took back what I said.

In her life with her mother-in-law, she has always been the one at the helm, looking for the direction to move forward, and more importantly, she must beware of the risks that may arise at any time in the reef, and she has already developed a thoughtful character.

Gu Yunli looked at the person sitting on the side who was standing still, and her side face looked even more cold, but it also made people feel inexplicably relieved. She was willing to try to rely on him if she could.

But now is not the time, she has not yet become a woman who can match him, and she doesn't know his persistence, and he ยทยทยทยทยทยท Not yet willing to let her rely on.

On the way back, there was no novelty when he came, after the business was discussed, and there was no anxiety about the unknown, Gu Yunli seemed particularly relaxed, sleeping when she was sleepy in the carriage, and reading a book and looking at the scenery when she woke up, time passed quickly.

Still rested in Lianyun Town for a night, set off early on the second day, and entered the crescent moon city in the evening with the afterglow of the sunset, although it has lost the amazement when it first appeared, but it is undeniable that the crescent city is still very beautiful. It fits some of Gu Yunli's imagination of Jincheng, the southern flower capital, peaceful and soothing.

Originally thought that at this speed, they would be able to return to Gudao City in another day, thinking of this, Gu Yunli was still a little excited, she hated the cold wind of Gudao City, disgusted with the wind and sand of Gudao City, but she missed her mother-in-law who was waiting for her to go home.

As soon as Gu Yunli lay down on the bed and was about to rest, he heard someone knocking on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw Ji Qingcheng in green clothes, and Yan Qing was waiting on the side.

"I have an urgent matter that needs to be diverted to Qingzhou, so I can't go back with you, but you don't need to worry, Yan Qing will escort you back."

"When are you leaving?"

"The situation is urgent, so I'll leave tonight. Before leaving, I will tell you, if you have something, just tell Yan Qing. โ€

"Yan Qing, take it away. He's something you're used to, and there's no doubt about his ability. If he and I are a little overkill. If it is convenient, please find someone to drive for me, and if it is inconvenient, I can also go to the city tomorrow to find a driver, which is not difficult for me. โ€

"Nope." Ji Qingcheng's brows furrowed.

"I didn't help at all when I came out on this trip, and if I want to hold you back when I come, then I'm too cheeky." After Gu Yunli finished speaking, he turned around and closed the door with a "snap", and said through the door: "If there is a suitable groom, let him wait for me downstairs tomorrow morning, and if I can't see anyone, I will hire a car myself." โ€

The journey from Crescent City to Gudao City is not far, and if you take the official road, it is considered peaceful, seeing her resolute attitude, Ji Qingcheng didn't say anything more, and only asked Yan Qing to arrange someone else to escort her back. Before leaving, he deliberately left a bag of silver for her.

Gu Yunli woke up on the second day, and as soon as she went downstairs, she saw two sturdy men saluting her respectfully, guessing that this should be the person Ji Qingcheng arranged to send her back.

It's just that this is one for two, and Gu Yunli suddenly doubts whether her persistence last night is meaningful.

After taking the heavy bag of silver, Gu Yunli couldn't help but be speechless, he was really generous enough, and he was not afraid that she would abscond with the money.

Shaking his head secretly, he ordered the two to set off in the car.

I don't know if Ji Qingcheng had an order or what, the carriage was still moving slowly, but it just returned to Gudao City at the beginning of twilight, not too early or too late, as if it had been specially calculated.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley outside her house and could not enter again, Gu Yunli got out of the carriage and thanked the two of them.

"Thank you for your hard work, thank you. It's not too early now, so the two of you will be sent here, so let's go back and rest early. โ€

"The girl is polite, this is the business of the two of us. But the young master told us that we must send the girl home safely. One of them also got out of the carriage and motioned for Gu Yunli to go first.

Seeing his resolute attitude, Gu Yunli couldn't shirk it anymore, so he had to let him send him to the door.

Gu Yunli thanked him again, saying that he had arrived at the door of the house, so he invited the two of them into the house to drink a cup of hot tea before leaving.

The man only said that he still had a task to do, and he left after a long stay.

A warm light came out of the crack in the dilapidated wooden door, sprinkled on the hand that stretched out and was about to push the door, Gu Yunli shook it before pushing the door open.

"Ahri?" The mother-in-law, who heard the voice, walked out, not quite sure what to say.

In the blink of an eye, it was confirmed that Gu Yunli was back, half surprised and half happy to greet him, "I just said that you have been gone for more than half a month, and you should come back, and you don't want to come back now." I didn't let anyone inform me, so I'm ready to pick you up. โ€

"The girl is back." Ah Ruo, who was following behind her mother-in-law, smiled at Gu Yunli's luggage and took the salute in her hand.

"Are you alone? Didn't you mean to be with the owner of the lodge? The mother-in-law looked out the door, but she didn't see anyone else who was a little confused.

"He had something urgent to do, so he left on the way."

"No matter how this works, no matter how you can't let a little girl come back alone." The mother-in-law frowned.

"It's okay, he has arranged for two big brothers to escort me back. Besides, I'm not one of those weak little girls, and this little road will be fine even if I go back and forth alone. โ€

"Say you're fat, you're still panting. You have a good brain, but how many dangerous things are there on this road, do you really think that you can be safe with a smart brain? As he spoke, he slapped Gu Yunli's arm hard, and just after the slap, he rubbed it for her with a calm expression.

Gu Yunli shook his head with a smile, "I'm just saying it, how could I run out to be a hero for no reason." โ€

"The girl has been traveling all the way, let's go into the house and rest." After Ah Ruo put the luggage away, he kept standing aside and watching the two talk, thinking it was very interesting, but seeing that they had not entered the house for a long time, he reminded them.

"Look at my memory, you go into the house and rest, I'll cook you a few dishes." The mother-in-law pushed Gu Yunli into the house, then turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Ah Ruo brought Gu Yunli a plate of snacks, "You can eat some snacks first, and I'll help my mother-in-law cook." โ€

"Ah Ruo, when did you enter the villa?" Gu Yunli stopped her.

"Into the Lodge? It's been eight or nine years, and it's been too long for me to remember. โ€

"When did you come to serve the owner?"

"At the beginning, the slave maid was still a rough maid, and she couldn't enter the owner's yard, until she was appreciated by the housekeeper three years ago, and then she entered the Luofeng Courtyard to do some work to serve tea and water."

"Last time, the owner of the village was ill, and I heard that it was a recurrence of an old disease, do you know what is going on? What is the old illness of the owner? Gu Yunli asked again.

"Since the slave maid entered the Luofeng Courtyard three years ago, the owner of the village will be seriously ill every six months or so, and the housekeeper and others seem to have been looking for a famous doctor, but they have not been able to find it. The other slaves and maids don't know anything, and if the girl wants to know, she can ask the housekeeper or Ji Wen Ji Xuan. โ€œ

"Okay, I got it."

After Ah Ruo retreated, Gu Yunli pondered for a long time, it seemed that he still had to find Ji Wen Ji Xuan. She didn't care how many secrets he had, she could check them slowly by herself, or she could wait for him to tell herself, only she had to know about this old illness as soon as possible.

Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Yunli woke up and couldn't sleep again, as soon as he closed his eyes, countless things were turning in his mind, his old illness, the things that made him change his route halfway, and his plan.

After getting up and packing up, he prepared to go to the dressing room.

"Why do you get up so early today," the mother-in-law said strangely when she saw her, "I can't afford to call it normally, but I get up so early after a tiring journey, you!" โ€

"Maybe it's a life of toil." Gu Yunli smiled and said that she was going to the dressing room.

"Why did you just come back and go, but what happened?"

"It's okay, it's just that I've been away for most of the month, and now I'm back to take a look, and I don't know if anything has happened recently."

"Go ahead, come back early." Although I felt sorry for her and was about to start running on the second day, I also knew that what she said was right. People's hearts are unpredictable, if she doesn't show up for a long time, maybe something will happen, so she didn't stop her anymore. only sighed secretly in her heart, whether it was good or bad, she had already embarked on this road, and she was bound to go to the end. I just didn't know that I might help her.

Aunt Wu, who was guarding the door, was very surprised when she saw Gu Yunli, and hurriedly opened the door to let her in, and then found a little maid to inform Aunt Lan.

Gu Yunli shook her head, didn't she just appear suddenly, she could even scare her, Aunt Wu's courage was really small, this is not good.

"When did the girl come back?" Gu Yunli stepped into the courtyard with his front foot, and Lan Gu arrived with his back foot.

"I just arrived yesterday evening, so I'll come and have a look when I miss you." Gu Yunli smiled.

"Did you and the owner have a smooth trip?" Lan Gu took the maid behind her, took the teapot in her hand, and poured a cup of tea for Gu Yunli.

Gu Yunli thought about it, although she didn't do anything on this trip, his purpose should have been achieved, so it could be regarded as smooth, "It's quite smooth, eating and drinking all the way is rare and leisurely." โ€

"That's fine, but I'm going to ask the girl for guilt." Lan Gu bowed and said, her face was not very good.

Gu Yunli stretched out her hand to help Aunt Lan up, "But what happened, Aunt Lan said it was okay." โ€

"It's that little hoove, you reminded me to pay more attention, but I was negligent, I didn't expect her to really dare to escape. A few days after you left, she began to shirk her discomfort and wanted to rest, and I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that she was just playing a little temper, so I just let her rest. It wasn't until three days ago that I found that the building had already been emptied, and I couldn't find it. It was my mistake, and I asked the girl to punish it. โ€

"I don't blame you, I didn't expect her to have this courage." Gu Yunli groaned, she and Lan Gu generally thought that it was inevitable that she would run into a wall when she first met each other, but she always thought that she would not be too affectionate in just a few moments, and she would slowly see it after a long time. I don't want her to be so decided, or she doesn't know that this move has forced her to Liangshan, and there is no way back. This life is destined to float like duckweed.

"Then you can ask the villa to come forward and retrieve her. Come to think of it, she is a woman, and she won't go too far. Lan Gu asked.

Gu Yunli shook her head, "No need, the forcibly twisted melon is not sweet, even if you find her back, she will no longer be the stunning green girl in the dressing room." She also has a share of the credit for the rise of the condensation building, and her departure can be regarded as a write-off, and her quality in the future has nothing to do with the condensing building. โ€

Lan Gu nodded yes, she has been in this industry for so many years, she naturally understands this truth. It's just that Gu Yunli spent so much time and energy cultivating Luwu before, and she seemed to look at her differently, Lan Gu thought that she was young and vigorous and inevitably annoyed and angry when she was betrayed for the first time, so she proposed to capture Luwu back.

I don't want Gu Yunli to show half of his face, he is so calm and can see it so thoroughly, it's really rare.
