Chapter 698: A Piece of Infatuation

"Madame is infatuated with the general, and sews a robe for the general, and the general will be happy when he knows it." Lan quipped with a smile.

But Gu Mingzhu was silent......

"Half a month has passed, and I don't know when the general will come back?" Lan's face sank, and he asked in surprise.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's eyes flashed slightly, her hands trembled, and she accidentally pricked her fingers, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she looked at her white and greasy fingers oozing blood.

"......" Gu Mingzhu sat quietly.

"Ah, sister, why are you so careless that you bleed." With a worried look on his face, Lan Shi hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped Gu Mingzhu's injured fingers.

But Gu Mingzhu dodged away and said softly: "A little injury, it's fine." ”

Seeing this, Qiao'er on the side hurriedly walked over and said worriedly: "Madam, why are you so careless?" ”

Hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped the injured finger.

Seeing this, the Lan clan had no reason to continue to stay, so she said softly: "It's not too early, the concubine will retire." ”

"Hmm." Gu Mingzhu said softly.

"It's just a small injury, don't mind." Gu Mingzhu lowered her eyes to look at Qiao'er's anxious appearance and comforted in a low voice.

"Madame, how can you not take care of your body like this?" Qiao'er frowned, and hurriedly took out an ointment from the inner room and applied it to Ye Hao's fingers.

Looking at Qiao'er's careful appearance, Gu Mingzhu was silent.

She frowned and asked in a low voice, "What time is it?" ”

"It's already afternoon, Mrs. Hui." Qiao'er replied in a low voice.

"It's been half a month, is there any news from the general?" Gu Mingzhu asked in surprise.

After bandaging Gu Mingzhu, Qiao'er shook her head and said, "No." ”

"Even the butler doesn't know anything."

After going out for half a month in a row and never returning home, Chu Jing was far away on the frontier, but there was no news at all, which made Gu Mingzhu worried.

"Don't worry, madam, maybe the general will come back tomorrow." Qiao'er hurriedly whispered comfort.

"This robe, I'm still one sleeve away from being ready for the general."

As he spoke, Gu Mingzhu lowered his eyes and looked at the black robe in his hand, and an insignificant smile appeared on his delicate cheeks.

She thought to herself that when Chu Jing put on her clothes, she must be in high spirits, and the jade tree was in the wind.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingzhu had motivation in her heart, she picked up the needle and thread, and sewed it carefully.

"Madam, you just injured your hand, you better take a break." Qiao'er said worriedly, and hurriedly stopped.

"I don't feel solid until I'm done," Gu Mingzhu said in a low voice with a determined look on his face.

Hearing this, Qiao'er also had a helpless look on her face, so she had to say: "The slave maid is on the side to help Madame." ”

The master and servant sat in front of the curtain, and the afternoon passed.

Before evening, Steward Li hurriedly walked into the courtyard.

"The servant salutes the lady." Steward Li saluted towards Gu Mingzhu.

Seeing this, Gu Mingzhu put down the needle and thread in his hand and asked softly, "Is there any news from the general?" ”

And Steward Li's resolute face had a look of joy, and he bowed his head slightly: "Mrs. Hui, the general has sent a letter." ”

At this time, Steward Li hurriedly took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it respectfully.

Gu Mingzhu took the letter, looked at the font on the letter with beautiful eyes, and couldn't help frowning.

A few large letters on the top of the letter jumped out on the paper.

"General Ben is all right, don't read it!"

"Ugh." The corners of Gu Mingzhu's mouth twitched.

This Chu Jing is inevitably too upright, he didn't even say a word of superfluous nonsense, not even a greeting.

"Madame, what did General say?"

Sensing that Gu Mingzhu's face was wrong, Qiao'er asked curiously.

"Nothing." Gu Mingzhu hurriedly folded the envelope in his hand and put it in his sleeve, "You can stand down." ”

"Yes." Steward Li respectfully retreated.

"It must be the general who is whispering to Madame, and behold, Madame is happy." Qiao'er said with a happy face.

However, Gu Mingzhu was white-eyed, and said coquettishly: "You don't make fun of me." ”

Madame's eyes straightened when she looked at the letter. Qiao'er joked with a smile.

"You slave is getting sharper and sharper." Gu Mingzhu showed a look of displeasure on his face, and said angrily.

"Slaves and maids all learn from the young lady."

But Qiao'er playfully stuck out her tongue at Gu Mingzhu.

"When the general comes back, he will punish you well." Gu Mingzhu said angrily, "You still dare to make fun of me? ”

Hearing this, Qiao'er immediately said in a second: "Please forgive Madame, the slave and maid don't dare anymore." ”

"Don't step down yet, don't disturb Mrs. Ben's bad mood." Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and glanced at Qiao'er, and said casually.

"Yes." Qiao'er turned around and retreated playfully.

There was silence in the large wing.

Gu Mingzhu took out the letter in her sleeve again, she lowered her eyes and glanced at it a few times, staring at the letter in a daze.

It made her feel a little depressed, and instead she threw the letter in her hand aside and got up from the bed.

She looked at the robe that she was about to finish, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes, and she was still thinking about making a robe for Chu Jing.

But this man didn't even have a word of greeting.

Thinking of this, a look of disdain flashed on Gu Mingzhu's delicate cheeks, and she muttered unhappily and said, "What a boring person." ”

After wandering around the side room for a while, Gu Mingzhu sat on the bed again.

This black robe was still a few stitches away from being completed, so she thought that even if she didn't like Chu Jing, it would not be too much to make a dress for the sake of husband and wife.

She picked up the needle and thread, and sewed the black robe carefully, with a relieved expression on her delicate cheeks, and her beautiful eyes looked at the robe in her hand.

I don't know how long it has been, Qiao'er knocked on the door a few times outside the wing, but she didn't hear Gu Mingzhu's movement.

She simply pushed the door in, walked in, and saw Gu Mingzhu concentrating on embroidering her robe, she persuaded in a low voice: "It's not too early, madam, you have to go to bed quickly." ”

"Wait a little longer." Gu Mingzhu said softly.

"Then the slave will light a few more candles for Madame."

Qiao'er took out a few candles and lit them and placed them around Gu Mingzhu.

"You stand down first, Miss Ben will call you." Gu Mingzhu ordered without looking back.

"Yes."

In desperation, Qiao'er had no choice but to nod and turn away.

The wind outside the window was blowing the curtains, mixed with the rustling of leaves, Gu Mingzhu sat in front of the bed, completely unaware.

I don't know how long it took, Gu Mingzhu sewed the last stitch on the corner, and she let out a long breath.

Then she put the black robe in her hand in front of her eyes and examined it carefully, a slight smile on her delicate cheeks.

Now she can sleep well with peace of mind, Gu Mingzhu's eyelids can't be raised, she folded the black ink robe completely, put it aside, she lay on the small table, her eyes slightly closed.
