When Gu Chengyu heard Qi Yao ask, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he was still here when he should have come. After pondering for a long time, he looked directly into Qi Yao's eyes, and met a pair of bright eyes, confident, intelligent, and aura...

Yes, this woman is not like any other woman, she is very bold and intelligent, and telling the truth will make both of them feel at ease. ’

"Actually, I'm not dead."

Qi Yao, "......" isn't nonsense, who can't see it.

Gu Chengyu looked at Qi Yao's darkened face, touched his nose weakly, and then spoke, "I didn't die on the battlefield, my real 'death' was because I was plotted and framed. ”

"Then who have you offended, in such a dangerous place on the battlefield, there are people who dare to plot against you!" Qi Yao hurriedly asked, if this Gu Chengyu has an enemy and Gu Chengyu dies, then she and the child will also be hunted down and killed in the future.

Gu Chengyu didn't think about it so much, and when he heard Qi Yao asking, he thought that Qi Yao cared about his safety, and his heart was warm and coaxing at the moment. "I don't know who the thief is, I was poisoned and thrown into battle, he planned to let me die under the enemy's knife, but I was lucky that someone saved me."

After a pause and a mouthful of saliva, Gu Chengyu continued, "Because I was too seriously injured when I rescued me, and my face was covered with soldiers' blood, I didn't recognize me, and I was counted when the number of people killed in the battle was counted." ”

"And then, how did you end up here?" Qi Yao's questions were one after another, and the questions were a little urgent, and her face was flushed.

Gu Chengyu saw that Qi Yao was uncomfortable, so he hurriedly helped her to sit on the stone, and when he saw Qi Yao looking at him with a longing face, he couldn't help but reach out and flick Qi Yao's forehead.

"Say it quickly." Qi Yao was a little unnatural.

Gu Chengyu smiled dumbly, how could he forget, his little lady didn't like him very much, "Later, I thought to myself, that thief can be unfavorable to me, and naturally he will hurt you and my mother, so I secretly went back to the village to protect your safety all the way." ”

"Are there thieves around us?" Qi Yao is still very concerned about her life.

Gu Chengyu gently stroked Qi Yao's stomach at this time, "I haven't seen it, I think that thief just wants to harm me, but I found out that my sister and brother-in-law want to be unfavorable to you, so I still hide in the dark to protect you." ”

Qi Yao understood the cause and effect, and thanked Gu Chengyu a little, although he didn't know if he was for himself or for the child, but after all, he protected her.

After thinking for a while, Qi Yao said dryly, "Then do you still want to hide?" Now are you going to go back with me to see my mother? ”

Gu Chengyu shook his head, "I can't reveal my identity yet, now the enemy is in the dark, if you expose me to the light, you and your mother don't know what will happen." ”

Hearing this, Qi Yao exhaled slightly, "It's okay that he's not here on weekdays, if he is, wouldn't she want to eat and sleep with him, she can't accept this for a while." ’

Of course, Qi Yao's small movements were noticed by Gu Chengyu, and his heart darkened, it seemed that it was still difficult for his little lady to accept herself for a while.

"Since my name has appeared on the white list, then I am a dead man, and now when I return to the village, I will definitely be exposed and noticed. But lady, I will always protect you in secret, and if you need me, you can tell me. "Since the matter has come to this, Gu Chengyu will try his best to settle Qi Yao.

"yes, okay."

"By the way, don't be so nonsense next time, you have been out for so long now, my mother and they must be in a hurry, I will send you back now." Gu Chengyu scolded Qi Yao gently, this girl is too bold.

Qi Yao also knew that she was at a loss, and with a somewhat flattering smile, Gu Chengyu picked herself up and left.

Although the distance up and down the mountain was far away, Qi Yao was carried up the mountain and carried by people when he went down the mountain, and he was not guilty. But not necessarily in the village.

After Wei Xiaoju got up for lunch break, she instructed Aunt Chen to make a bowl of tonic soup for Qi Yao and bring it over, who knew that she didn't find anyone when she went. At first, I didn't care, but after half an hour, I didn't see Qi Yao return to the room, and several people were in a hurry, and everyone set out to find Qi Yao, and found that she was indeed not there.

"Madame, don't cry." Xiu'er brought Wei Xiaoju a cup of tea and comforted.

When Wei Xiaoju heard this, her tears not stopped, but flowed even more fiercely, "This kid, three days and two heads are in trouble, if something happens to their mother, I can still live!" ”

Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen also looked anxious and walked around the house.

Suddenly, Aunt Chen said to everyone, "Why don't we report to the official, maybe the young lady was kidnapped by thieves." ”

A few people were stunned, this possibility is also there.

"What kind of officer, have we lost something in our house?" Before a few people could react, Qi Yao's voice came.

Looking up again, Qi Yao held her stomach and walked over slowly.

As soon as Wei Xiaoju saw Qi Yao, she hurriedly pounced, "Yaoyao, where have you been?" ”

Seeing Wei Xiaoju like this, Qi Yao also understood in her heart that several people were worried when they found out that she was gone. Suddenly felt a little self-blame in my heart, "Mother, I'm just going to go outside for a walk, and it'll be fine." ”

Seeing this, Aunt Chen, who was on the side, also interjected, "Young lady, you should also be considerate of Madame, you are pregnant, you can't be so playful." ”

"Mm-hmm, I'll tell you next time I go out." Qi Yao had a good attitude of admitting her mistakes, comforting everyone vigorously, and after repeated reassurances, everyone was relieved.

As the days passed, Qi Yao and Gu Chengyu became more and more familiar, and after many days of getting along, Qi Yao found that Gu Chengyu was really good, and he was much less repulsed.

However, since she knew that Gu Chengyu was not dead and had been by her side, she was a little unnatural every time she saw Wei Xiaoju, especially when Wei Xiaoju always held Gu Chengyu's tablet late at night with a sad face, which made her even more uncomfortable.

In addition, Qi Yao has also been running the business of the Gu family's timber shop with her stomach up, and in these days, Wei Xiaoju understands her hard work, and actually stays up late to light the lamp and learn some ways of management. Although there is no way to do carpentry work, he is also a good hand at accounting and operating on weekdays, which has helped Qi Yao a lot.

Qi Yao has also been providing the shop with some fresh gadgets every once in a while, especially the handmade gadgets she carved by herself, and the price is very good. Under her care, the shop did not decay, but flourished day by day, making a lot of money for the family.

As for Gu Qingru and Li Chang, they were arrested for theft, and their little relatives in the yamen had already been disposed of by the county magistrate last time. There was no one to take care of them in the yamen, and the two of them had a hard time, so they were not released from prison until now, so they didn't make trouble for Qi Yao.

In a blink of an eye, eight months have passed, and Qi Yao is about to give birth.

On this day, Qi Yao went to the timber shop to take care of the business accompanied by Wei Xiaoju, and today just arrived a batch of fine timber, Qi Yao wanted to check the quality.

"Young lady, madam, here you are again." As soon as Xiao Jiang saw the sedan chair at the door fall to the ground, revealing Wei Xiaoju's face, he hurriedly went up and shouted.
