It is precisely because Gu Shangqing has deep internal strength and a strong body that he will have non-stop nosebleeds.

This Xiuning is really messed up, and when he saw Gu Shangqing falling into the water, he was in a mess. If Su Jinyao hadn't been here, or if Gu Shangqing had been left alone, it would have been estimated that his nosebleed would have run out, and Yicheng's strength would have been lost.

Su Jinyao pulled out a golden needle in the handrope and stabbed Gu Shangqing a few times in several places (xué). Although the nosebleed was still flowing, at least it stabilized his internal force to scurry around.

Nosebleeds are actually not a bad thing, the blood in the body is too vigorous, and it is good to flow out, and it will also extinguish the fire.

However, Gu Shangqing took too much yīn medicine, which caused the nosebleed to continue to flow, and if the bleeding was not stopped, a lot of internal strength would be lost.

It wasn't until Dongzi brought cold water and soaked Gu Shangqing's feet in it that his nosebleed slowly stopped.

Su Jinyao said to Dongzi: "His feet should be soaked in cold water for an hour, and the water should be changed frequently during this period, and the colder the water, the better." You just work hard, and I'll give you a reward when you get back. ”

Dongzi agreed, and said: "The master's orders, the villain just does it." No tipping is required. ”

Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said, "Maybe I'll consider giving you Xiuning?" ”

Dongzi was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and said, "The master said he laughed." I, I like Xiuning, but I don't want to force her, and I don't want the master to make decisions for me, which goes against her own will. Take your time, if Xiuning doesn't like me all the time, I'll be her brother too. ”

The sentence "I will also be her brother" stunned Su Jinyao when she said it. Then glancing at Gu Shangqing, who was lying unconscious on the chuáng, Su Jinyao glared at Dongzi and said, "Where did you all gossip come from?" He's really my brother. ”

"If it is, it is. But master, someone arranged to take care of the dots along the way, so it would be so convenient. The villain just doesn't understand, why is the master unwilling? After Dongzi finished speaking, he stuck out his tongue and said, "Master, don't blame me for talking too much, I just think that these are trivial things." But what is rare is to follow all the way, all the way, more thoughtful than the next person. That's enough to testify to sincerity. ”

Su Jinyao listened, glanced at Dongzi again, and said, "Okay, if you talk a lot, the reward is gone." ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao walked away quickly. But when she got out of the door, Su Jinyao stopped, thought about it and explained: "When I wiped his face, I also used cold water, and the brazier in the house was also removed." ”

"Yes." Dongzi agreed, and watched Su Jinyao's back go away.

But as soon as Dongzi turned around, he was about to wipe Gu Shangqing's face, but he saw that Gu Shangqing had already opened his eyes.

"Oops, it scared the hell out of me. Gu Gongzi, when did you wake up? Dongzi patted (xiōng) pat the chest, looked at Gu Shangqing, who was full of nosebleeds (shēn) and his face was covered with blood, and hurriedly took a white cloth and wiped the blood on his face for him first.

It's still a little dry and unwiped, but it's still a little better than before.

Gu Shangqing smiled slightly and said, "I've been awake for a while." When Jinyao gave me acupuncture, it hurt. ”

Dongzi let out an "oh", a little disapproving. Then he threw the white cloth that had wiped the blood stains on Gu Shangqing into the basin on the ground, squatted down (shēn) and began to wash the white cloth.

After washing off the blood stains on it, Dongzi wrung the cloth towel into the water, stood up and handed the cloth towel to Gu Shangqing, and said, "Gu Gongzi, wipe your face." The blood stains are not stained with water and cannot be wiped clean. ”

Gu Shangqing stared at a pair of peach blossom eyes, stared at the cloth in Dongzi's hand, touched his teeth, and asked, "You washed the cloth towel in the basin where I soaked my feet, and then wrung water to wipe my face?" ”

"Ah, there's no extra basin left. Besides, do you still dislike your own feet? Dongzi said yes, and handed the cloth towel to Gu Shangqing a few points.

Gu Shangqing (shēn) moved, opened the cloth towel soaked in foot soaking water, and said, "Dongzi, what kind of master has what kind of slave, I'll ask your master later, does she also like to wash her face with foot soaking water?" ”

Dongzi shook his head and said, "Then you ask." But I know that my master must have washed his face with bath water. I don't dislike bath water, but I don't like foot soaking water? ”

With Brother Sa, (jiāo)

Dongzi's words choked Gu Shangqing and rolled his eyes. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Then you take it, I won't wipe it." After soaking for a while, I went out to wash myself. ”

"Alas, what a noble son, there are so many problems." Dongzi even disliked Gu Shangqing. Then he fished Gu Shangqing's feet out and said, "The master has instructed, let the cold water for soaking your feet be changed frequently, I will go to change the new water now, and when I come back, I will wipe your face first, and then soak your feet, this is always okay, right?" ”

Gu Shangqing's mouth pursed, and he was still very unacceptable in his heart.

As a result, Dongzi said again: "Gu Gongzi, if you want me to say that you shouldn't dislike this or that." If you really dislike it, why do you come out? Think about it, how many guests in this inn have stayed in this house all year round? If you can't have a guest, just change a cup (tào), and if you leave a guest, you can change a new copper basin, right? So, the things in this room, like the cup, must have been used by many, many people. As for this basin, it's not just Gu Gongzi that you have washed your feet alone. In other words, if you use it as a basin, maybe the night before they would not only soak their feet, but also use it as a urinal. ”

"Poof" Gu Shangqing completely collapsed. Thinking that he was a dignified grandson of an ancient family, the eldest young master, he actually used a basin used by others...... There could also be a urinal.

Dongzi looked at Gu Shangqing's green and white face, went out with a basin of water, and didn't forget to hum a little song happily.

That's right, he just felt a little sour in his heart, and he was also upset for Xiuning.

This Gu Gongzi just looks so eyesore, and if he doesn't say a few words disgusting to him, Dongzi will feel uncomfortable.

This is like what Gu Shangqing said before: what kind of master, what kind of slave. Dongzi's (xìng) son is a bit like Su Jinyao's.

However, when Dongzi went out with the basin, he saw Su Jinyao standing not far from the door with her hands behind her back, looking at her fingernails while looking at Gu Shangqing.

Dongzi immediately became like a tanuki, quickly ran to change the basin of cold water, and came back to soak Gu Shangqing's feet. Then he went to ask for a new basin and came back, and said to Gu Shangqing: "Gu Gongzi, this is the new basin I asked for with my buddy, this is pouring water for you to wipe your face, it's okay, right?" ”

Gu Shangqing breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

An hour later, Gu Shangqing's nosebleed stopped and changed to runny nose. After soaking in cold water, I had a fever, and then I kept soaking my feet in cold water, and I couldn't say that I didn't catch a cold.

Su Jinyao was squatting in the kitchen, looking at the big carp swimming around in the big wooden basin in a daze.

She didn't expect that Gu Shangqing would really catch a big carp for her and come back. However, she really just wanted to get him on board.

"Master?" Xiuning came to the kitchen to give Qi Niang lunch, and called Su Jinyao softly.

Su Jinyao agreed "um", then pointed to the fish in the basin and said, "Slaughter, stew fish soup." A bowl of Qi Niang, a bowl of Gu Shangqing. ”

"Yes." Xiuning agreed, but looked at the fish swimming in the basin, then looked at Su Jinyao, and asked, "Master, should I send it to Gu Gongzi, or ......?"

"I'll send it myself, stew it." After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she turned her head and walked away without looking back.

Gu Shangqing pressed his nose vigorously with a handkerchief, and as soon as he let go of his hand, a big sneeze came out, and the snot began to flow down again.

Su Jinyao entered the door with a bowl of steaming fish soup, and saw Gu Shangqing with a kneaded red nose and tears.

When you have a cold, you have a sore nose, swollen eyes, a runny nose and tears, which is completely uncontrollable.

Looking at Gu Shangqing's appearance, Su Jinyao's heart was a little twisted, sour and sour, (tǐng) uncomfortable.

As soon as Gu Shangqing looked up and saw Su Jinyao, she also saw the fish soup she was holding in her hand. Immediately he stood up (shēn) and walked over and stretched out his hand to take it.

As soon as his hand was stretched out, another sneeze came out, and he hurriedly covered his mouth and nose again.

Su Jinyao glanced at him, put down the fish soup, and said, "Sit down, give you a needle." ”

Gu Shangqing said "thank you" and sat down.

Su Jinyao took out the silver needle and made two strokes on Gu Shangqing's face, and saw that Gu Shangqing's watch (qíng) was peaceful and waveless, as if it was not him who wanted to pierce him.

Su Jinyao withdrew her hand, held the needle, and asked, "You don't want to ask me what I do with the needle?" Are you not afraid of me or retaliate against you, and your mouth is crooked and your eyes are slanted? ”

Gu Shangqing pursed his lips and smiled, "Then prick it." Anyway, I know where I went wrong, and you'll just clean it up. ”

"Are you wrong?" Su Jinyao looked surprised and said, "Didn't you say that you were just for my good?" Since you are a good heart, I am kind as a donkey's liver and lungs. It's that I don't know what to do, why do you still have to swallow your anger and admit your mistakes and accept punishment? ”

Gu Shangqing sneezed again, then pressed his nose with a handkerchief, with a very nasal voice, and said: "Actually, in my opinion, you have never been angry with me, you are just sprinkling (jiāo) to your brother." ”

"Sa" (jiāo)?" Su Jinyao couldn't help laughing. Shaking his head, he said mockingly: "I have lived so long, I have never known what sa (jiāo) is." In my impression, I can't eat it as a meal, nor can I give me a good (rì) son, and I can only live what I want by constantly climbing forward and upward. ”

Su Jinyao is actually not talking about herself, but she is also herself. She is talking about the killer Su Jinyao in her previous life, a cold-blooded killer who was trained by the organization.

With no relatives, no partner, and in the end, she didn't even have her life, and she never knew what a sa (jiāo) was.

But Gu Shangqing smiled after hearing this, rubbed his nose again and said, "The stronger you are, the more it proves that you need these things." My brother spoils you, that is, he wants to make up for the things you are missing. So you got angry with me, beat me, and tricked me into the water, and I didn't complain or get angry at all. On the contrary, I will try my best to bring you what you want. ”

Su Jinyao's tense heartstrings were inexplicably broken. Although it was only a thin one, she could clearly hear the slight sound of the heartstrings breaking.

"Silly girl, no one loved you and spoiled you before, it doesn't mean that you are not worthy of spoiling, but the person who can spoil you has not yet appeared." After Gu Shangqing finished speaking, he stretched out his slender and white hand, gently tapped the back of Su Jinyao's hand with his fingertips, pointed to the silver needle in her hand, and said, "It's okay, if you are angry, just prick it." ”

"No gas." Su Jinyao suddenly said: "I, I am just sa (jiāo)." ”

"Huh?" This time, Gu Shangqing was stunned for a moment, looked at Su Jinyao with round peach blossom eyes, and asked, "Jinyao, what did you say?" ”

Thorough sister control

Su Jinyao pinched the silver needle in her hand, lowered her head and said, "Actually, in my heart, because of this trip to the capital, it has become very contradictory. ”

Gu Shangqing nodded and said, "So, because my repeated appearances have disturbed you even more, so you lose your temper with me?" How good is this, (shēn) is the elder brother, and it is the responsibility to make the younger sister happy. ”

Su Jinyao looked at Gu Shangqing, and then said seriously: "It's not that there is no one who spoils me, it's just that he knows better what I want and what I don't want." He will never be like you, begging for nothing, and he will impose his spoiling on me. He would respect my ideas and discuss with me how to go step by step. It's not that he doesn't have opinions, it's just that he cares about my feelings. ”

"So you're going to find him?" Gu Shangqing asked, "Do you know what he is facing now?" ”

"I know, but I don't know." Su Jinyao said, sat down, looked at Gu Shangqing, and said, "So I need a strong helper." But I don't want you to think I'm taking advantage of you. ”

"Jinyao, you mean, you have also considered it, and you want me to help you?" Gu Shangqing's heart was overjoyed. He seemed to understand where Su Jinyao's contradiction was.

Su Jinyao has no backup and backing, but the people she can really trust are in the same dangerous situation as her.

The only ally, Helian Ruo, has also become the biggest uncertainty because of whether Helian Tianqi can become the emperor's eldest grandson.

Su Jinyao nodded silently, but sighed again. said: "I have a ...... for you An inexplicable sense of trust. From the first time I met you, not this meeting, but a few months ago, before I went to the capital, you suddenly came to Jasmine Garden, and I had an indescribable feeling for you. It seems to be close, and it seems to be trust and understanding without any reason. ”

Taking a deep breath, Su Jinyao twisted the silver needle in her hand and continued: "But I don't want to be involved with you when I know your (shēn) share, and what you said later about my relationship with the Gu family. In other words, I just want to treat you as a friend, but I never want to recognize the people of the Gu family, and I don't want to admit that I am the granddaughter of the Gu family. ”

In fact, recently, Su Jinyao has been thinking a lot about this matter. She suddenly understood why when she arrived at Feihongfang, she felt very kind when she saw the old man of the ancient family.

And the old man of the Gu family was actually friendly and kind to Su Jinyao, and even decided to help Su Jinyao sell books unconditionally.

It can be said that without the encounter in Feihongfang and the help of the old man of the ancient family, it would have been a little difficult for Su Jinyao to get to where she is today.

In other words, there are many factors that have made Su Jinyao successful, and there is no lack of Su Jinyao's own efforts and wisdom.

However, by chance, Su Jinyao created a shortcut to success. And among them, the old man of the Gu family can be regarded as one.

After truly understanding her own (shēn) share, Su Jinyao began to wonder if the "old man at first sight" with the old man was the so-called kinship (qíng) and blood relationship that was difficult to give up and very keen?

Gu Shangqing listened to Su Jinyao's words, frowned, and put on a serious face, and said, "Jinyao, I also tell you, if you treat me as a friend and want to get my help, it can't be done." ”

Su Jinyao nodded when she heard this, and said, "I understand that there is no free lunch in the world. So, I'll give you acupuncture, and when you're well, please leave. I don't want to get too involved with you. ”

Gu Shangqing suddenly suppressed Su Jinyao's hand that was about to give him acupuncture, and said, "Silly girl, I haven't finished my words yet." You are so smart, how can you listen to half of the words? Taken out of context, it is not allowed. ”

Su Jinyao said calmly: "Okay, you say." But I'm sure I'm not going back to the Gu family, I don't need the Gu family's (shēn) share, so it will be easier for me to get things done. ”

Gu Shangqing was a little anxious, pressed Su Jinyao's hand slightly, and said, "Let you listen to me now and listen to me." ”

This time, Su Jinyao did not interrupt, but nodded and made a listening appearance.

Gu Shangqing said directly: "I can tell you, Jinyao, in my brother's place, there is not only a free lunch, but also a free dinner and supper. I said, I can give you all the pampering, and of course I will tolerate your rebellion. ”

After speaking, Gu Shangqing stretched out his hand and tentatively touched Su Jinyao's brain.

Seeing that Su Jinyao didn't dodge, he gently touched Su Jinyao's hair with his big hand, and then said: "Brother just wants to tell you that it's okay not to recognize the Gu family, after all, the Gu family didn't give birth to you, didn't raise you, and let you wander away for so many years." If it were me, I wouldn't be going back. However, my brother has not slacked off for a day, and I have been trying to find you and your mother. For the sake of more than ten years of looking for me so sincerely, you call me 'brother', and (shēn) is an older brother, willing to do anything for my sister (qíng). I don't come forward on behalf of the Gu family, I am Gu Shangqing. ”

After listening to this, Su Jinyao's mind was a little unable to turn around. But there is one thought that is completely certain, and that is...... Gu Shangqing is a thorough "sister control".

As long as it is said by my sister, you can pick stars in the sky and catch dragons in the sea; For the sake of my sister, anything is possible.

Su Jinyao suddenly felt that God had found that he really owed herself more than 20 years in his previous life, and not only gave her the best (ài) person in this life, but also compensated her for a perfect brother?

Is this acceptance, or acceptance? Forget it, take it.

But Su Jinyao was a little embarrassed, the sound of "brother" choked in her throat, as if she was plugged by a ball of cotton, and she couldn't spit out a word.
