Gu Hao leaned against the screens in the inner and outer rooms, waiting for someone to move, the length of the replaced candle head should be about the same as the length of the candle that is burning now.

Sure enough, when the candle was about to burn, the candle shook obviously, and the light quickly dimmed a lot, and then you could hear footsteps outside.

But she was standing in the inner room of Jinbao's room at the moment, and she was afraid that the maid would see it and cause unnecessary misunderstandings, and thought that she coveted other people's little boys in the middle of the night and ran to the house where they were sleeping.

So she simply went a little further inside, hiding behind the screen, and only saw the people coming in through the gap between the screen.

But the person who came in was not the maid on duty at night as Gu Chao imagined, but the charming spring fiber during the day.

Gu Chao didn't expect that she, the so-called sister, would come to change the candle head for her younger brother, which was actually a very small and unnecessary thing.

Maybe it was because it was too late, and the light in the house was dim, even if Gu Chao himself knew that he was hiding behind the screen, there would be a large shadow cast on the screen, but Chunxian still didn't notice the existence of the person behind the screen.

Chunxian quickly threw the candle head aside, inserted a new candle, lit the fire, closed the door lightly and left.

Gu Chao waited for it to close the door completely, and then slowly walked out of the screen, intending to continue to go back to lie down, but suddenly, someone slapped her on the shoulder.

Because she had a nightmare just now, she is very sensitive now, and the coolness that has just fallen behind her instantly surged to the back of her neck tendon, Gu Chao's neck shrank suddenly, and her hand also subconsciously reacted, and punched back.

The punch hit Campbell's shoulder.

"Ouch, are you sick?"

Gu Chao came back to her senses and found that she had actually hammered Jinbao, and then reacted that the person who had just patted her on the shoulder was Jinbao.

"You don't sleep at night, what are you doing here?"

Jinbao rubbed his shoulders and said angrily.

"I haven't asked you yet, what are you doing here?"

Gu Chao straightened his clothes and said.

"Me, can't I wake up in the middle of the night and look around?"

"How did you get to the inner room? You're not trying to kill me, are you? ”

Gu Chao was already sleepy at this time, her eyelids were also heavy, and she didn't have the strength to roll her eyes in the fight, otherwise she would have rolled her eyes a long time ago.

"If I really want to deal with you, do I have to wait until you fall asleep to poison you?"

"Since you're so confident, what do you want to do sneakily behind the screen just now?"

Gu Chao cleared his throat, then looked Jinbao up and down, and found that he was dressed in bedclothes, and he did look like he had just woken up from bed.

"I ask you, what are you doing in this room with candles lit all night? When you fall asleep yourself, light a candle to whom? ”

Jinbao said naturally.

"Of course I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night and see a dark house, so I asked my father to tell his subordinates to come in and change when they see the candles in the house are burned out, is there anything to say?"

"Your father ordered someone to change it? So you know, who is the girl who changed the candle for you? ”

Jinbao said very carelessly.

"How do I know who those girls are? It's nothing more than Qingliu, Xiaowen's those who are asleep outside, today you snatched their bed, they don't know which miscellaneous room to detour into, change the candle head, I'm afraid they want to kick you to death? You're not going to be kicked awake by them, are you? ”

Gu Chao listened to his words, and wanted to come to this outside to sleep in the maid, in addition to keeping vigil, I am afraid that there is really a job to change candles, she just saw Chun Xian come in with her own eyes, tiptoeing, that kind of familiarity, it is definitely impossible that it is a whim, and it is the first time she came here to change the candle head.

"What do you say if I say I just saw your sister?"

Jinbao said impatiently at first.

"I've already said that she's not my sister, so don't call her my sister anymore."

Then he asked.

"What have you done about me? She didn't sleep in the middle of the night, what did she do in my room? Unless she doesn't like me anymore and wants to end me as soon as possible so that she can inherit my father's family business! ”

"Are you perverted? Why is everyone trying to harm you? ”

"Then what do you mean when you say you don't sleep in the middle of the night, run to my screen and hide, and say you saw that woman?"

Gu Chao pointed to the candle heads that had been replaced.

"When you run out of candles, you replace them, right?"

"Knowingly asked."

"I just had a dream, I woke up in the middle of the night and found that the candles in your house were still on, and there were many replaced candle heads next to them, so I was curious and wanted to see which maid was so diligent, and after waiting for a while, I found out that it was your sister...... Oh no, it was Chun Xian who came in, and after she changed the candles for you with her own hands, she went out again. ”

Jinbao looked surprised.

"Impossible, she and I are quite harmonious in front of my father on the surface, but there is no communication in private, and it is impossible for her to do these things for me."

"Why do you keep keeping candles on? Are you afraid of the dark? ”

Gu Chao's question directly turned the menacing little boy into a slightly red face.

"You, you take care of me, my father is the village chief, my family has money, I am willing to order, what's the matter?"

"It seems that I am really afraid of the dark."

Gu Chao tilted his head, as if he was confident.

"I advise you not to make such an expression, you sleep in that outer room, there is a candle, you just thank God, otherwise I don't know where a mouse will run out, or a poisonous snake will run out of it and bite you, it will not be our business."

"If there are rats and poisonous snakes outside, why do you still let the maid lie there? The bed was so low from the ground, cloudy and damp, where was the place where people slept? ”

Gu Chao slept for most of the night, and his back hurt and he couldn't help complaining.

"A group of people who do hard labor for my family, are there still good food and drink to serve? If you don't work in my house, you will lift them up by sleeping in the cowshed. ”

After saying two normal words, Jinbao revealed this kind of young master who cares about people's lives as a send, but he is not a young master, just a stupid son of a landlord in the countryside.

Gu Chao was really sleepy, and she didn't want to discuss this matter with Jinbao anymore, in short, she felt that everything in the village chief's house was weird, and the relationship between the situation was also very complicated, and now in the middle of the night, she couldn't think clearly for a while, and she couldn't understand.

As long as she waits for tomorrow and leaves here tomorrow, these things are no longer her concern, Ling Zhuo is really right sometimes, she really shouldn't think so much, care about so many things, these things have nothing to do with her.

It's just this dream tonight...... Could it be about your past?

When Gu Chao thought of this, she felt a wave of excitement in her heart, in the past ten years, she didn't even have a single memory of her past, every time she looked at the jade lock on her neck and stroked the lines on her head, she couldn't think of anything.

But today, in this strange place where she came for the first time, she still slept on such a simple bed, she could actually dream of hazy people who seemed to be very familiar, and she firmly believed that those two people must not be simple, just passers-by in dreams.
