"The slave maid was also a little tired when she looked at the young lady, and the slave and maid retreated first." Qiao'er said slightly.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu waved her hand to signal Qiao'er to step back, and she sat on the chair leisurely alone, with an indifferent look between her eyebrows.

I don't know how long it took, but the sky outside the window gradually got dark.

Qiao'er walked into the wing room and saw Gu Mingzhu asleep, she took out a cloak and put it on Gu Mingzhu's body.

Who knew that Gu Mingzhu had a very small sleep, and she woke up all of a sudden, and when she saw Qiao'er standing in front of her, she asked in a low voice, "What time is this now?" ”

"It's already dark outside Miss Hui." Qiao'er replied in a low voice.

"Hold Miss Ben up." Gu Mingzhu said softly.

"Yes, Miss." Qiao'er replied.

"Go down and make dinner." Gu Mingzhu ordered.

After Qiao'er retreated, Gu Mingzhu also got up, she stepped out of the wing room with broken steps, and walked towards Li Yanpin's courtyard.

At this time, Li Yanpin was sitting on the chaise longue, embroidering tweed in his hands.

"Mother, what are you doing here?" Gu Mingzhu walked into the wing room, saw Li Yanpin's seriousness, and asked in a low voice.

Li Yanpin raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Gu Mingzhu with a kind face, "Mother wants to make more silk handkerchiefs for you and keep them for you to use when you go back to the General's Mansion." ”

"Mother, you don't have good eyes, don't do this." Gu Mingzhu stepped forward and persuaded him, and said with a worried look on his delicate cheeks.

Hearing this, Li Yanping said with a kind smile on her face: "Mother can still see it." She carefully sewed the silk handkerchief in her hand.

"Miss Ben is the general's wife, what do you want? Why bother with your mother doing this? Gu Mingzhu had a look of self-reproach on his face, and stepped forward to persuade him.

At this time, Li Yanpin also paused, she put down the needlework in her hand, and looked at Gu Mingzhu lovingly, "Why should Zhu'er blame herself, her mother didn't do it." ”

She put down the needlework in her hand, and took Gu Mingzhu's hand and motioned for her to sit down.

Sitting down next to Li Yanpin, Gu Mingzhu looked at her with beautiful eyes, and the corners of her mouth hooked up and said, "Mother, Zhu'er has already prepared dinner, please have a meal with mother." ”

"Hmm." Li Yanpin replied softly.

At this moment, a slave walked in from outside the wing room, saluted Li Yan, and said, "Mrs. Hui, the master has returned to the house." ”

"Still not going to set up the meal?" Li Yanpin ordered.

After the slave and maid retreated, Li Yanpin and Gu Mingzhu got up and walked towards the front hall.

"What time has it been? Why did my father come home so late? Gu Mingzhu asked worriedly.

"Your father was a merchant, and he went out early and returned late every day."

At this time, Li Yanpin sighed faintly, with a look of uneasiness on his beautiful face.

When walking in the front hall, Gu Jinkang was still in the future.

Gu Mingzhu helped Li Yanpin to sit down, seeing that the dishes on the table were all ready, and soon Gu Jinkang came.

Seeing Gu Jinkang coming, Gu Mingzhu hurriedly saluted and said, "Zhu'er has asked my father to say goodbye." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jinkang was slightly stunned, and then he asked in a low voice, "Why did you come to the house?" ”

"Zhu'er wants to come to the house to accompany her mother for a few days." Gu Mingzhu said word by word, glancing at her delicate cheeks with a smile.

However, Gu Jinkang looked indifferent, and said in a deep voice: "Get up." ”

Then the family of three simply enjoyed dinner.

After dinner, Gu Jinkang had something to talk to Li Yanpin, so Gu Mingzhu got up and left with interest.

Back in the wing, Gu Mingzhu also fell asleep early in the morning.

Following.

When Gu Mingzhu got up, Li Yanpin hadn't gotten up yet, she finished dressing, walked out of the wing room with broken steps, and walked in Gu's mansion.

At this time, she saw that Gu Jinkang also got up, she stepped forward and saluted, "Zhu'er has seen my father." ”

"Get up." Gu Jinkang glanced at Gu Mingzhu indifferently, and waved his hand to signal her to get up.

"Thank you, father."

Gu Mingzhu stood up slowly, looking at Gu Jinkang dressed neatly, she frowned slightly, and asked in surprise, "Where is my father going in the morning?" ”

"Go out and load the goods." Gu Jinkang's face was solemn, and he ordered the housekeeper to go and prepare the horse.

The butler replied with a possession.

"Recently, the Huns have been making a lot of trouble, and my father should not go out to buy goods these days." Gu Mingzhu said worriedly, with a complicated look on her cheeks.

"What nonsense."

Immediately, Gu Jinkang snorted coldly and said solemnly: "This is an immutable rule for daily purchases, what do you know as a woman?" ”

"My father's teachings are very good."

Gu Mingzhu didn't argue with Gu Jinkang, and nodded in response with a relieved expression.

Then Gu Jinkang's deep eyes swept over Gu Mingzhu, and asked in a deep voice, "I heard that the general is out of the border pass?"

"Yes." Gu Mingzhu replied in a low voice.

"In that case, you will stay in the Gu family for a few days and serve your mother well." Gu Jinkang said word by word.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "How many days will it take for my father to go out of the house to deliver this time?" ”

"I don't know." Gu Jinkang said with a worried face, after all, this time the border Huns made a lot of trouble, and he was afraid that he would have to delay the trip for a few days.

"Then my father must be more careful when he goes this time, and it is more reassuring to bring a domestic servant." Gu Mingzhu had a worried look in his eyes.

Hearing this, Gu Jinkang bowed slightly, he glanced at Gu Mingzhu, and before he could say a word, he turned around and walked down.

"Congratulations to my father." Gu Mingzhu bowed and said.

Seeing Gu Jinkang leave the Gu Mansion, a complicated expression appeared on Gu Mingzhu's delicate cheeks, and she always felt a little unsteady in her heart, so she ordered the Gu family's guards to follow Gu Jinkang.

"Miss, don't worry, the master will be fine." Qiao'er looked at Gu Mingzhu sullenly, and she persuaded softly.

Hearing this, the corners of Gu Mingzhu's mouth hooked a curvature: "It's not early, I ordered the kitchen to prepare some breakfast." ”

"Yes." When Qiao'er heard this, she ordered her slaves and maids.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu was walking in the garden, and about the hour, she stepped forward to Li Yanpin's courtyard.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu coming, the slaves and maids in the courtyard all bowed and said, "The slaves and maids have seen the young lady." ”

"Get up." Gu Mingzhu said indifferently, and walked towards the wing room with broken steps.

At this moment, Li Yanpin was sitting in the wing, grooming and dressing, and when he heard the movement outside the door, he knew that Gu Mingzhu was coming.

"Zhu'er said hello to her mother." Gu Mingzhu said happily and saluted Li Yan.

"Get up." Li Yanping glanced at Gu Mingzhu with a kind face, and motioned for her to get up.

"Mother invites you to tea."

While speaking, Gu Mingzhu held the tea in both hands and sent it to Li Yanpin.

Seeing this, Li Yanpin looked pleased, took the tea, took a sip and said, "Get up." ”

"Thank you, Mother." Only then did Gu Mingzhu get up.
