"Little master, don't be angry, now that the general is not in the house, you must not offend the general's wife."

The apricot beside her whispered persuasion.

Which is more important, Lan Shi weighed in his heart, and a complicated expression flashed in his eyes.

"I don't know why the general left the mansion in such a hurry?"

Lan said faintly, with a hint of complaint on her delicate cheeks.

"The general is brave and martial, he will definitely be fine." Apricot whispered comfort.

"I hope the general can come back safe and sound."

Although Gu Mingzhu was in charge of the family, it was very unhappy in the Lan family's heart, but this was Chu Jing's order, and no one could resist.

"The little lord's concern, the general will definitely feel it." Xing'er said with a happy face.

At this time, Qiao'er stood under the eaves, looked at the back of Lan's departure, and turned back to the wing.

"Mrs. Hui, the Lan people walked towards the back garden."

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu put down the teacup in his hand and said softly: "You go and prepare the carriage, I want to leave the house." ”

At this time, Qiao'er showed a hesitant look on her face, "But madam, before leaving, the general explained that he would not let Mrs. leave the house." ”

"Do you listen to the general, or Mrs. Ben?" Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao'er, and said coquettishly.

Hearing this, Qiao'er's face changed slightly, and she couldn't say a word.

“……”

Seeing that Qiao'er didn't speak, Gu Mingzhu's face sank, and he asked unhappily: "You have been following Miss Ben since you were a child, how can you listen to the general's words?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Qiao'er immediately became overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Slaves and maids listen to Miss." ”

"Since you obey Miss Ben, you won't go and prepare the carriage." Gu Mingzhu ordered in a deep voice.

"Now that the generals are not in the house, there is turmoil and turmoil outside, so don't go out of the house." Qiao'er frowned and said worriedly.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's delicate cheeks showed a look of displeasure, and he said in a deep voice: "It seems that you don't listen to my words." ”

"Madam, don't be angry, the slave and maid will go down and prepare the horses." Qiao'er frowned and said, and hurriedly retreated.

Gu Mingzhu sat on the seat, raised her eyebrows to look at Qiao'er who was leaving, and put down the teacup in her hand carelessly.

At this time, she got up and walked out of the wing room with broken steps, and walked towards the outside of the house.

Sitting in the carriage, he walked towards the market.

Now that there is civil strife in the capital, this makes Gu Mingzhu a little anxious, she still has a few shops on hand, I don't know if it has been affected?

She sat upright in the carriage, and her whole body looked a little uneasy.

Qiao'er, who was beside her, comforted in a low voice: "Madam, you look uncertain, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It's fine." Gu Mingzhu said that it was fine.

But her frowning brow showed an uneasy look, and she reached out and lifted the curtain of the car, and looked out.

The carriage was about to arrive at the bazaar, but few people were seen passing by on the road.

Seeing officers and soldiers patrolling from a distance, Gu Mingzhu frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

"Little master, the slave maid heard that there are often officers and soldiers patrolling these days, and it seems to be extremely strict, and it is really the case today." Qiao'er frowned and said worriedly.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

Qiao'er is her personal slave and often accompanies her, how do you know this? ”

"The slave and maid also heard about it from the people in the house, and even the housekeeper often went out of the house to buy vegetables, and they all heard about it." Qiao'er said word by word.

Hearing this, the doubts on Gu Mingzhu's face were even worse, and the carriage slowly walked to the market.

She got out of the carriage and walked with Qiao'er towards the shop.

Because there were very few people passing by, there was no business in these shops.

Even in the bazaar, there are few people who stop here, Gu Mingzhu went directly to Yanzi's shop.

In the store where I also saw the swallows, it was also particularly sluggish.

At this moment, Yanzi was peeling beans in the hall, and when she saw Gu Mingzhu coming, she hurriedly got up and greeted, "Zhu'er, why are you here?" ”

"Of course I'm here to visit you." Gu Mingzhu happily sat down beside Yanzi.

"Why don't you eat tofu today?"

She raised her beautiful eyes and looked at the swallow in surprise, and asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Yanzi sighed, and a trace of sorrow appeared on her delicate cheeks, "You don't know, don't say that my shop is in a recession, and even the business of this entire street is extremely bleak." ”

"In the past, this street was extraordinarily prosperous, but now why is that?" Gu Mingzhu frowned and asked worriedly.

This gave Yanzi a surprised look, she shook her head and said, "That's right, but these days the officers and soldiers often patrol, making people panic." ”

"At the moment, everyone is hiding at home and not daring to go out, who will come out to go shopping?"

Yanzi put down the beans in his hand, got up and poured a cup of tea for Gu Mingzhu.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu looked puzzled, "Then why is this?" ”

"I heard that the Huns on the frontier are going to enter the city."

Yanzi said this was a bit exaggerated, and she sent the tea to Gu Mingzhu's hands.

Gu Mingzhu was silent for a while, her eyes rolled, and she asked in a low voice, "What about Uncle Zhao?" ”

"My father went up to the mountain early in the morning to chop wood." Swallow whispered.

"Zhu'er, what are you doing in the General's Mansion?"

In the past, Gu Mingzhu was an idle person who often went out of the house to play, but now Gu Mingzhu often goes out of the house, which makes Yanzi very surprised.

Without waiting for Gu Mingzhu to speak, Qiao'er joked with a smile: "My wife is often grounded by the general, and she is not allowed to leave the house so rudely." ”

"But now it's good, the generals have been out of the house for a few days in a row, this can't suffocate my wife, so I left the house." Qiao'er laughed.

As soon as she heard this, Gu Mingzhu's face was embarrassed, she looked at Qiao'er embarrassedly, and said coquettishly: "You slave don't make fun of Miss Ben here." ”

Seeing this, Qiao'er playfully stuck out her tongue, "The slave is also telling the truth." ”

"You've lost all of Miss Ben's face." Gu Mingzhu's face was ashamed and angry, and he shouted in a deep voice.

Yanzi on the side watched the two bickering, and couldn't help laughing, "I think Qiao'er is loyal to you, but she doesn't have any bad intentions." ”

"I don't have bad intentions, but I have a small mouth and sharp teeth." Gu Mingzhu glanced at Qiao'er and said angrily.

Hearing this, Qiao'er also muttered and retorted: "What the little master said is very true, the slave and maid don't dare anymore." ”

Looking at the two of them, you and I were talking to each other, and Yanzi couldn't help laughing out loud when she sat on the side, "Qiao'er, this slave, I look smart and clever." ”

"Thank you, Sister Swallow, for the compliment." Qiao'er looked happy and bowed slightly towards the swallow.

"General Zhu'er has been out of the house these days?" Swallow asked suspiciously.

But Gu Mingzhu's expression was light, and he bowed slightly: "Well, otherwise, how can I have the opportunity to leave the mansion?" ”

"The Huns on the frontier are making trouble these days, and the general should be more careful." The swallow muttered to herself.

These words made Gu Mingzhu fall into deep thought, and a strange look flashed in his dark eyes, but he refused to speak for a long time.
