Chapter 212: Night Detective
That is to say, when the words are done, a little maid will come.
Mrs. Gan may have heard the movement outside the door and hurriedly called Gan Peilin over.
"I came here so recklessly, did I disturb my grandmother's cultivation?" Gan Peilin just entered the door and asked tightly. Then he stepped forward and saluted: "Grandmother, Pei Lin is really worried about you, so he can't take care of this." Please also forgive your sins. ”
"Silly girl, come over here and show your grandmother." Mrs. Gan couldn't help but worry: "A few days ago, you were sick, and your father often wrote to say that you were much better. But my grandmother was worried in her heart, afraid that he would report good news and not bad news. Thanks to seeing you today, looking at the spirits, my grandmother is relieved. ”
Gan Peilin stepped forward and snuggled up to her knee, and could see the smell of sandalwood on her clothes.
I have to say that the smell is a little strong, and it seems to have been smoked for several hours. In other words, my grandmother has really been in this room all the time.
"Rest assured, grandmother, I'm all right." Gan Peilin asked Yanzi to present the things he brought: "Grandmother, I brought you a wintering fox fur, silver charcoal, and a thick quilt. I also brought a lot of strong fitness supplements, and you asked Ju Ruo to make soup every day to nourish and recuperate, and you can't slack off. Also, I remember my grandmother's favorite dragon well before the Ming Dynasty, although this season Longjing has been put on hold for more than half a year, and the new tea has not come down, but it is always the best, more delicious, and I can only ask my grandmother to drink it. ”
"You girl, you're stupid." Mrs. Gan couldn't help but have a sour nose, she had been out of the house several times, but no one had ever braved the wind and snow to give her something like Gan Peilin. Everything was thought of for her. Thinking about it this way, she herself has a little affection for this granddaughter. "I'm out of the house to cultivate, and I'm not here to enjoy happiness. How everything is prepared. ”
"Grandmother is sincere and pure, and her piety is unparalleled, and the Buddha naturally knows it." Gan Peilin said with a smile: "These are just a little bit of my granddaughter's heart." ”
"Okay, I'll take it all." Mrs. Gan took her hand and gently closed it in her palm. "It's just...... Are there any other reasons why you are so filial to your grandmother? ”
This tentative question made Gan Peilin feel a little uneasy. She also deliberately revealed such uneasiness.
"What? Is there really one? Mrs. Gan looked at her suspiciously: "Then you can sit here and talk to your grandmother." ”
"Grandmother, the cousin Chu Xue who was raised by the Mo family in our house disappeared a while ago." Gan Peilin looked worried: "I was sick at the time, I couldn't get out of bed at all, my mother came to Xinglou to ask about it, and I was truthful." But just a few days ago, the old lady of Mofu also came, and I had to say that I hid my cousin Chuxue, and ...... I also want to teach my mother a lesson. ”
"What?" Mrs. Gan's eyes suddenly tightened: "The old lady of Mofu came to trouble you?" What did your father say? ”
"At that time, my father had already gone to court." Gan Peilin sighed faintly: "When my father came back, the old lady of Mofu had been sent back to Mofu because of illness. At that time, because my granddaughter was sick, I heard that the people of Mofu were still looking for trouble outside the mansion, but they were blocked by the housekeeper. ”
"Then I'm curious, how did you send her away?" Mrs. Mo looked at Gan Peilin with empty eyes.
Gan Peilin shook his head lightly: "It was the Governor of Dadu who suddenly came to save his granddaughter." ”
"You mean, the Metropolitan Governor stopped the Mo family's mother and daughter...... Kill you? Mrs. Gan gasped.
"Yes." Gan Peilin's eyes were hot at this time, and tears fell, obviously aggrieved: "Grandmother, granddaughter really hasn't done such a thing." But they wouldn't believe me. ”
"Silly girl, it's okay." Mrs. Gan gently wiped the tears from her face with her fingers: "Didn't the Metropolitan Governor already seek justice for you!" Now that justice is coming back, what else do you have to be wronged about. The mother and daughter of the Mo family will have retribution sooner or later. ”
"But mother, she's sick now." Gan Peilin said deliberately: "It is said that it is a palpitation attack." The daughter was stopped when she went to Yonghua Garden, and she didn't know what the situation was. ”
"She's sick, your father knows it." Mrs. Gan showed a rather numb look towards Mo Yanqing. And don't care, and don't want to pay attention. "It's you, next time there is such a thing, don't be too soft, and don't be cowardly. The more you let them, the more they will get in. ”
No one had ever told her these things except her mother. And she will understand that it is because she has experienced too many things to grow wiser. Pei Lin remembered.
Gan Peilin held Mrs. Gan's hand and exerted himself slightly: "It's good that my grandmother cares about me so much, otherwise Peilin would really be very aggrieved." His father was busy with government affairs all day long, and Pei Lin didn't dare to bother his father with these things. ”
"You're doing the right thing." Mrs. Gan's eyes flashed with approval: "The Governor of the Metropolitan has made another meritorious service." Although the West is only suing for peace, it can also be peaceful for a while. Your father and Ganfu have chosen to rely on him, and the future is bright. It's just that this future is also dangerous, so take your time. ”
She spoke to herself, not caring about Gan Peilin's thoughts at all.
It is also strange to say that Gan Peilin actually found a cocoon in the palm of his grandmother's hand. This cocoon is not too thick, and it should not have been ground out over the years. It's like a new birth. But in this meditation room, the most you can do is to pluck the beads, knock on the wooden fish or something, how can you grind out the cocoon?
There are too many doubts about my grandmother.
Gan Peilin didn't know why he was fascinated by these unreadable mysteries.
"Are you going to stay here for one night and then go down the mountain, or are you going back right away?" Mrs. Gan asked gently: "If you leave immediately, you will definitely be able to go down the mountain before dark." If you want to stay for one night, I'll ask the little maid to clean up a meditation room for you. ”
"My granddaughter wants to stay one night and spend more time with her grandmother." Gan Peilin said against his will.
"Okay." Mrs. Gan glanced at Ju Ruo.
Ju Ruo hurriedly retreated.
"Wait a minute, you can also taste the food in this nunnery, they are all excellent. The taste is not lost to Fuchu at all. Mrs. Gan talked to Gan Peilin without a match, and it was time to eat in a blink of an eye.
After eating the food and drinking tea, Mrs. Gan said that there were still some Buddhist scriptures that had not been recited, so she came back to the wing room alone.
Gan Peilin was also placed in another wing, three rooms away from his grandmother's wing.
"Did you look around when I was talking to my grandmother?" Gan Peilin always felt that something was wrong: "But did you find anything?" ”
"Ma'am, I've looked around." Yanzi said solemnly: "Except for the people around the old lady, who can see that they know some kung fu, I really haven't seen the rest." And the people in this nunnery are all in order, nothing special. ”
"Gan's mansion is a gate, and it's not uncommon for there to be a handmaid in the house who knows kung fu." Although Gan Peilin didn't know that the people around his grandmother understood this, it made sense. "Could it be that I've been thinking about deviation all along? But what about the calluses on grandmother's hands? She never does rough work, let alone wields a sword, and always feels that there is something else that we ignore. ”
"If you want to know, Madame, just give it a try tonight." Swallow has an idea.
"It's fine." Gan Peilin saw that she stopped talking, so he didn't ask much. "I just used it in my grandmother's room, and it tasted good. If you are hungry, go find something to eat. ”
"Okay." Swallow nodded.
"I'm a little sleepy, maybe I woke up too early and got up too early, so I got some sleep first." Gan Peilin stretched his waist and collapsed on the small wooden bed. Although the wooden bed was not very big, it was covered with a very soft bed, and she fell asleep after not lying down for a while.
She slept soundly this night, and woke up because someone kept patting the back of her hand.
"Madame, Madam, wake up, Madame......"
Gan Peilin opened her eyes in a daze, there was no electric light in the room, but she recognized the voice of the swallow.
"It's so late? What did you think of? She sat up, but the swallow made a silent jewelry: "Don't go out in the room, wait and see what happens." ”
"Huh?" Before Gan Peilin could react, the swallow jumped out of the window lattice with a light body.
"Yan ......" could only swallow the words that came to her mouth, and Gan Peilin was also woken up by her, so she simply got out of bed and walked to the window lattice.
Only then did she notice that Yanzi was actually wearing a man's clothes and was walking around this courtyard.
Gan Peilin's heart tightened, what did she want. This is the nunnery, and the appearance of men in the middle of the night may not sound good. Just as he was trying to push the window lattice open and let her come back quickly, she heard someone scream.
"Who?"
Gan Peilin's heart also trembled, and he hurriedly put down the window lattice, hiding aside and listening quietly.
"Someone, there's an assassin ......"
In the middle of the night, someone shouted like this, which was enough to alarm half of the people in the meditation room.
Sure enough, the lights in several meditation rooms turned on next, and Gan Peilin hurriedly looked out through the gap, and there was no swallow in sight at this time.
"Come on, someone, there's an assassin ......" The woman's voice came and went, and it didn't stop, and soon someone pushed open the door and ran out.
Gan Peilin had an idea, and like them, he deliberately ran out in a panic.
"What assassin? Where are the assassins? She walked quickly with the men.
"I'm sorry to alarm the donor." The little nun who first saw the swallow turned blue with fright: "I just came back and before I entered the wing, I saw a man swaying over there. At such a late hour, how could there be a man in the nunnery, it must be an assassin. ”
"Isn't it, if not an assassin, an uninvited guest. Hurry up and find him. The older nuns were apprehensive.
At this time, Gan Peilin found that there was no movement in the wing room on his grandmother's side. Isn't grandmother in the room?
She pretended to be panicked and went inside: "I have to go see my grandmother, but don't scare her." ”
