The dark one came back in early February, and when he came back, a layer of snow was spread on the whole person, which startled Gu Yao, and he thought that a snowman had come out of nowhere!

"Miss." As soon as he came back, he went to see Gu Yao, but fortunately, it was in the afternoon, and Gu Yao was playing in the yard with Ma Chengjiang at that time!

When Gu Yao saw Dark One, he was immediately excited, "Dark One, you're back." Then he looked behind him and saw that he didn't see the person he wanted to see.

"Miss." Dark One took out the letter in his hand and handed it to Gu Yao.

Gu Yao opened it excitedly, but after looking at it for a while, the smile on his face retreated, and the hand holding the letter paper trembled slightly.

This, this......

After reading the letter, Gu Yao glanced at Ma Chengjiang with some pity, and then said to the dark one: "You go to the kitchen to find the cook to drink some ginger soup, and then rest for a few days." ”

"Miss, subordinate."

"Don't be reckless, anyway, I'll stay at home during this time, there won't be any danger, you can take care of yourself first." Gu Yao interrupted Dark One's words and said.

He nodded and said, "Yes." And then he went down.

Gu Yao put the letter away, and then continued to play with Ma Chengjiang, as if the dark one had never appeared at all.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Gu Yao and Yi Ranchen talked about the contents of the letter that Dark Yi brought back when he came back this afternoon.

"Yi Ranchen, Dark One is back today." Gu Yao lay flat and nested in Yi Ranchen's arms and said.

"Yes, I saw it." Yi Ranchen said.

Gu Yao was silent for a moment, and then said, "My brother wrote me a reply." ”

"What was written?" Yi Ranchen said.

"Say." Gu Yao couldn't say any more.

Yi Ranchen had already seen that something was wrong with Gu Yao from the dinner at night, but seeing that the other party hadn't spoken, he didn't ask.

Thinking that when the other person wants to say something, he will definitely say, "It's okay, let's talk slowly." ”

Gu Yao took a deep breath and said, "Brother said that the people of the Ma family encountered an accident before they arrived in the capital at all. After a pause, he said, "It was said that they had met a bandit, and all the people of the Ma family were killed by the bandits." ”

"What about the others?" Yi Ranchen asked.

"Others." Gu Yao sneered and said, "The others, except for a few minor injuries, nothing else is fine. "Only, all the dead are the Ma family.

It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous.

At this glance, you can know that it is premeditated, otherwise, why would the thieves just kill the Ma family!

Obviously, as a bandit, isn't the official who wears the clothes of the yacha the most hated and feared?

When did the bandits become so blind!

Yi Ranchen held Gu Yao's hand and comforted her silently, "That little Jiang, will you stay at home in the future?" ”

"Well, the Ma family is gone, all the family property has been confiscated, and the family has cut off relations with Mrs. Ma." Gu Yao said, with a hint of disdain on her face.

'That family' refers to self

However, it refers to Ma Yan's father-in-law's family, and as soon as he heard that something had happened to the Ma family, he immediately severed the father-daughter relationship with Mrs. Ma.

Otherwise, she could have sent Ma Chengjiang to the other party's house.

"Yao'er, people are like this, when there is a benefit, licking a face is all about it, really waiting for the other party to have trouble getting up, it is best to have a distant relationship with the other party, or the kind that never gets along with each other."

Yi Ranchen squeezed Gu Yao's hand and said, "Anyway, our family is not bad for Xiao Jiang's mouthful." ”

Gu Yao rubbed in Yi Ranchen's arms and said, "All things, in the final analysis, are caused by my father, and now the Ma family is being raided, also because of my father's holy decree." ”

"Ugh." Yi Ranchen knew that Gu Yao had drilled the horns of the bull, and comforted: "Yao'er, it was Gu Yuxing's greed at the beginning, and it was not my father's fault. ”

"If it weren't for the rebellion of the ancient royal line, how could it involve the Ma family." Yi Ranchen rubbed Gu Yao's head and said.

Gu Yao sighed, but she didn't know what to say, she only felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she still didn't know how to face Ma Chengjiang.

Although she was not the murderer of the Ma family, she felt that she was the one who indirectly killed the Ma family.

After all, the Ma family went to the capital because of her father's holy decree, and was then killed on the way to the capital.

"Yao'er, we've done what we can." Yi Ranchen said: "The Ma family can't be resurrected after death, what we should do now is how to settle Ma Chengjiang."

Gu Yao raised his head, "Didn't we say that we would take care of him, what, do you want to regret it!" ”

"I didn't mean that, I mean, the death of the Ma family, do we keep hiding it from him?" Yi Ranchen said.

Speaking of Ma Chengjiang, Gu Yao was immediately silent.

Yes, the Ma family is gone, and they can't hide it from each other all the time.

Yi Ranchen saw Gu Yao's irritability, rubbed the other party's head, leaned over to his side, and said, "Okay, let's see if there is anything then!"

"If Xiao Jiang really asks, then we will tell the truth, the long pain is better than the short pain, lest he grow up by then and complain that we don't tell him."

"As for the bodies of the Ma family, I think we still need to bring them back." In the end, they are acquainted, and since they have the ability, bring them back.

In the end, this Ling County is their root, and the fallen leaves return to the roots!

Gu Yao rubbed Yi Ranchen, and then said sullenly: "Okay, listen to you."

The next morning, Gu Yao got up and was a little uncomfortable when she saw Ma Chengjiang in the dining room, but fortunately, the child was still young and didn't notice that something was wrong with Gu Yao.

As in the past, he said hello to Gu Yao, "Sister Yao, morning." ”

Gu Yao nodded, then walked over and rubbed the other party's head, and said, "Is it okay for my sister to take you to Zhuangzi in the afternoon?"

"Okay." Ma Chengjiang's face was tense, and he nodded obediently.

Gu Yao saw that Ma Chengjiang was so well-behaved, his nose was a little sour, such a good child, he actually met such a thing

Thing.

Really, really......

Ma Chengjiang glanced at Gu Yao with doubts in his eyes, did not speak, and continued to eat breakfast hard.

When Yi Mo came over, Gu Yao was about to take Ma Chengjiang out, and immediately asked word by word: "Sister, where are you going?"

Gu Yao hugged Yi Mo with a smile and said, "We're going to Zhuangzi, does Xiao Momo want to go with us?"

"Go, go." Yi Mo nodded his head, glanced at Ma Chengjiang, and then kissed the landlord Gu Yao's neck.

Ma Chengjiang lowered his head and didn't look at Yi Mo, pulled the corner of himself, his mouth flattened, he missed his father, and grandpa, grandma, and grandpa.

Gu Yao put Yi Mo down, held one in one hand, followed by Xiao Xu, and the four of them walked slowly towards Zhuangzi.

Outside, the cold winds of winter are replaced by the warm spring breezes of spring, and the cold temperatures of winter are replaced by the warm temperatures of spring.

The snow and ice melted, the little grass poked out its tender green little heads, the willow branches pulled out more tender green leaves, and the swallows and all kinds of migratory birds flew back, and they liked the world of spring even more.

When walking on the mountain road, Gu Yao picked up Yi Mo, Xiao Xu picked up Ma Chengjiang, and walked slowly towards Zhuangzi.

Fucheng, Li family

"Master, it's not good, something happened to Miss." Steward Li ran in from outside in a panic, his chubby body trembling.

Old man Li was drinking tea in the hall, and when he was shouted by Steward Li, his whole body trembled, and the tea cup in his hand almost fell.

"Lao Li, what are you doing, I was shocked."

Steward Li cried on his chubby cheeks and said, "Miss, Miss is gone."

"What, what did you say?" Old Man Li stood up suddenly, and he didn't know that the teacup in his hand had fallen.

"Miss, Miss, they encountered bandits on the way to Beijing, and they went." Steward Li thought of the young lady who called herself 'Grandpa Li' softly, and suddenly burst into tears.

Old Man Li stumbled under his feet, his eyes were dizzy, and he muttered in his mouth: "How come, how come, didn't you say that it would be fine, no, no."

"Sir." Steward Li looked at the fallen old man Li, his chubby body suddenly became flexible, caught it, and shouted outside: "Come on, come on!"

Gu Yao didn't care about what happened in Fucheng, she now encountered the question of Ma Chengjiang asking her father when she would come back.

Seeing that Gu Yao didn't speak, Ma Chengjiang flattened his mouth, tears began to roll in his eyes, his hands were clenched tightly, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Little ginger." Gu Yao said softly, holding Ma Chengjiang's hand with one hand, rubbing his head with the other, sighed slightly, and continued.

"My sister doesn't know when you separated from your father, but since you asked so, then my sister will tell you."

"Sister." Ma Chengjiang raised his head and looked at Gu Yao, his little face full of anticipation.

Gu Yao touched his little face, he really didn't want to tell him that cruel truth, but what about it, instead of waiting for him

When you know when you are older, it is better to tell him the truth from the beginning.

"Xiao Jiang, my sister was originally going to plan, if you asked, then my sister will tell you, but when the words come to your mouth, it's really difficult to say it." Gu Yao stretched out his hand and hugged Ma Chengjiang in his arms.

Ma Chengjiang sat obediently in Gu Yao's arms and didn't speak quietly.

Gu Yao glanced down at him, and slowly told about Gu Yuxing's rebellion and implication in the Ma family.

She didn't care whether Ma Chengjiang understood it or not, so she told Ma Chengjiang the cause of the incident, the process, and the result.

"Your grandfather said that he would cut off relations with your mother, and after the accident, your father sent you to my sister's side, and my sister thought, since everything has happened, no matter what, my sister will always take care of you."

"When you are older, my sister will send you to the school in the village, learn knowledge from Mr., no matter what you want to do in the future, literacy is the minimum."

"Sister can't guarantee anything else, but as long as you want to read it, my sister will always be there for you." Gu Yao saw that Ma Chengjiang had not spoken, and asked, "Xiao Jiang, are you listening to your sister?"
