Chapter 666: Sabre Rattling
Finally came to the house, Gu Mingzhu naturally didn't want to leave, she hooked her lips and smiled, with a relieved look on her face, and said in a low voice: "You get out of the way, Miss Ben wants to go in and have a look." ”
"But......" The butler hesitated for a moment, then stopped talking, and stepped forward and pushed open the door of the study.
Gu Mingzhu looked relieved, and she walked into the study with broken steps.
Before she could speak, a deep male voice sounded above her head: "Why are you here?" ”
"Back to my father, Zhu'er has said hello to you." Gu Mingzhu bowed slightly.
Seeing Gu Mingzhu coming, the loss on Gu Jinkang's face faded a lot, and his tone softened: "Why did you come here today?" ”
"Jewel wants to tell her father good news." Gu Mingzhu said with a light smile on her delicate cheeks.
The bright smile shook Gu Jinkang's eyes, and he asked in surprise, "What good news?" ”
At the moment, his face was sad, and he couldn't eat for that shipment all day, what good news could there be for him.
"Back to my father, I went back to my house and told the general about it, and the general said that he had already helped my father get the horse back." Gu Mingzhu said confidently with a calm face.
Hearing this, Gu Jinkang's face changed slightly, and he asked happily, "Are you serious?" ”
"Back to my father, what Zhu'er said is true." Gu Mingzhu said word by word, with a relieved look on her delicate cheeks.
This was undoubtedly the best news for Gu Jinkang, and he hurriedly stood up and walked towards Gu Mingzhu.
"Why did you come to tell me now that something so big happened to you?" Gu Jinkang said with a look of ecstasy, stretched out his hand to put Gu Mingzhu's shoulder, and said happily.
"As soon as Zhu'er got the news, she rushed home to inform her father." Gu Mingzhu said happily, and then explained, "This time the Huns robbed and transported goods, but there is not only one father, the court has strictly and thoroughly investigated this matter, please rest assured that my father will definitely give my father justice." ”
These words fell into Gu Jinkang's ears, which made him feel overjoyed, and he hurriedly echoed: "This time, thanks to you, I will come down tonight and have a good meal with my father." ”
"Okay."
It was rare to see Gu Jinkang so happy, and Gu Mingzhu was also happy.
At this moment, Gu Jinkang waved his hand, turned around and walked out of the study with a happy face.
Seeing that Gu Jinkang had been frowning for several days in a row, he didn't expect Gu Mingzhu to come, so he immediately became overjoyed.
Even the housekeeper who was guarding the door of the study looked at Gu Mingzhu with a shocked face, and praised with a smile: "Miss really has you." ”
"Father is really happy today, and you go down and tell the kitchen to prepare some dinner." Gu Mingzhu commanded softly.
When the butler heard this, he nodded and replied, "The slave will go down and command." ”
Then Gu Mingzhu turned around and stepped on broken steps, and then left.
At this time, Qiao'er walked over and saluted her, "Miss Hui is not good, Mrs. Chen is here." ”
Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's face changed slightly, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneering expression: "What is she here for?" ”
No matter what Chen Zhilan does when she comes to the Gu family, it will definitely not be a good thing.
"Miss Hui, the slave doesn't know." Qiao'er bowed with her.
"Since you're here, please come in."
Gu Mingzhu said indifferently, with a thick mocking look on her delicate cheeks.
Hearing this, Qiao'er hurriedly replied, "The slave and maid will go." ”
As soon as the words fell, a yin and yang strange female voice sounded: "Who should I be, wearing flowers and branches, it turned out to be Zhu'er." ”
"Presumptuous, Miss Ben is the general's wife, you should salute when you see me." Gu Mingzhu looked at Chen Zhilan coldly, and shouted in a deep voice.
Suddenly, the smile on Chen Zhilan's face froze, a shrewd look flashed in her eyes, and she pouted and said, "That's not right, I'm still your eldest aunt, you should bow to me even more." ”
"Mrs. Chen, you humiliate my wife like this, beware of making a big disrespect."
Qiao'er on the side said unevenly for Gu Mingzhu.
These words made Chen Zhilan extremely dissatisfied in her heart, she had a cold face with a look of disdain on her face, "I talk to Zhu'er, so you are a cheap maid to interject?" ”
Qiao'er looked aggrieved, stood aside and couldn't say a word in anger.
However, Gu Mingzhu's expression was indifferent, her eyes stared at Chen Zhilan coldly, and a cold light burst out from her eyes: "Today's eldest aunt is really a rare guest, what is the matter when she comes to the house?" ”
On this topic, Chen Zhilan immediately said: "I came to the house today to find your father." ”
"The Gu family has already separated from you, I don't know why the eldest aunt came to find my father?" Gu Mingzhu said sharply, staring at Chen Zhilan coldly.
Those clear eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and they could see at a glance what Chen Zhilan was thinking in his heart1?
Chen Zhilan is a typical person who loves to take advantage of small advantages, and there must be nothing good about coming to Gu Jinkang this time.
Chen Zhilan, who was stared at by Gu Mingzhu and had a cold back, her face changed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "I heard that your father's cargo has been settled?" ”
Hehe!
"I wonder where my aunt got the news?" Gu Mingzhu asked suspiciously, then her eyes sank, and she hooked her lips and sneered, "Don't you know that my father's freight was robbed by the Huns?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhilan's eyes flashed with a hint of emptiness, and she said with a shrewd face: "Your father Ji has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be able to tide over the difficulties if he wants to come." ”
"What's more, your husband is still a general, and he will definitely help your father find the freight."
"The eldest aunt is really ingenious, how would she know that the general must find good goods for my father?" Gu Mingzhu asked suspiciously, she stepped forward and walked up to Chen Zhilan's expression, looking down at her condescendingly.
The cold eyes seemed to be able to see Chen Zhilan through, her body trembled subconsciously, and her eyes were a little evasive: "Zhu'er, what are you talking about?" You are the general's wife, you definitely won't watch your father's freight being robbed by those Huns. ”
These words hit Gu Mingzhu's mind, she would not watch her relatives being hurt indifferently.
Gu Mingzhu was silent, a pair of cold eyes looked at Chen Zhilan's sly expression, she lowered her eyes, and a complicated expression flashed in her eyes.
Seeing that Gu Mingzhu didn't speak, Chen Zhilan was overjoyed in her heart, she knew that there would definitely be a turn for the better in this matter.
So as soon as she heard that Gu Mingzhu had come to Gu's house, she rushed over on purpose.
"Where's your father?" Chen Zhilan asked in a low voice with a shrewd face.
"It's really unfortunate that my aunt is here, my father just left the house." Gu Mingzhu didn't want to deal with Chen Zhilan, a woman who was full of calculations.
Hearing this, Chen Zhilan did not leave immediately, with a smug look on her beautiful face, she turned to say: "Since I came to the house, I came to see your mother." ”
