After Gu Qingyuan returned home, he was really invited by Mrs. Gu to Jingrong Courtyard, and An Li was with Dong Qing and others.

When he heard the news, Gu Mingxiu was drinking medicine.

Mu Lan brought a small bowl of candied fruit over, and after carefully arranging it, she placed the medicine bowl brought by the servant on the table, tested the temperature and said, "Girl, it's still hot now, wait and drink it later." ”

Mo Zhu opened the curtain and said softly, "Girl, that Mrs. An has come to see you." ”

Gu Mingxiu had earlier instructed that if the Xu family came, they could be released, but Mo Zhu was not too deliberate and obvious, and invited someone to the door to come in first to report, and then the Xu family led a little girl into the room.

The little girl was carved in pink and jade, and she was very cute. She took Xu's hand, and walked towards Gu Mingxiu curiously step by step with innocent and ignorant eyes.

Memories overlap with previous lives in an instant.

She was still such a gentle woman, even though she was wearing a white prison robe, her face still did not carry a trace of resentment. She lowered her eyes, gently stroked her abdomen, and said softly: "On the Huangquan Road, your father and mother are with you, don't be afraid." ”

calmly closed his eyes, and the corpse was in a different place in an instant.

Gu Mingxiu unconsciously lost her mind, and her heart was torn apart in an instant. She raised her hand and slammed it over the table, her fingertips clenching the spilled tea. The girl's whole body was bent down, half-lying on the table, her breathing was short, and big drops of tears fell on the table.

Everyone was startled when they saw this, Miao Lan hurriedly brushed the teacup away, and Mo Zhu had already hurriedly helped Gu Mingxiu up: "Miao Lan, Miao Lan, take the medicine!" ”

Agarwood was waiting outside, and the moment he heard the movement, he rushed in, and walked quickly to the inside and took a small porcelain vase out. Xu Shi had already walked to Gu Mingxiu's side at this moment, reached out and took the medicine in Agarwood's hand, poured out one and fed it to Gu Mingxiu's mouth, and helped Mozhu feed her water.

Mu Lan, who was left aside, was puzzled, thinking that the Xu family was just kind-hearted. Seeing that Gu Mingxiu had swallowed the medicine, she was relieved, and simply took out a piece of candied fruit and coaxed the little girl to play on the small table on the side.

patted the girl's back again and again, and seeing that her breathing gradually stabilized, Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She frowned and said softly, "Why is your body so weak?" ”

The tone is a little reproachful, but it is not offensive, but it seems to treat the juniors who don't take good care of themselves.

Mo Zhu saw that she had just helped serve Gu Mingxiu to take medicine, and he felt a little good and sad about her. Even others can care about their own young lady like this, but these people in the house with the names of their relatives are all jackals, tigers and leopards dressed in sheep, and they all want to profit from the girl, except for a few people, no one cares about her.

She sighed and replied for Gu Mingxiu: "When the lady was pregnant with the girl, she ran around with the master, but she was weak, and she was extremely weak even with the girl in her mother's womb. ”

Raising his eyes to meet Xu's worried gaze, Gu Mingxiu smiled softly: "I just saw my wife walking with my sister, and I remembered when my mother accompanied me when I was a child, I was a little excited for a while, and I scared my wife..... I am very sorry." ”

"It's okay, I'm going to feel guilty that I took the liberty to scare you when you were like this." Xu Shi laughed when she heard this, she looked at Gu Mingxiu, and her tone was very gentle, "Your body is so weak, why do you say that you are not close to him?" Could it be that he didn't take good care of you? ”

Gu Mingxiu's eyes lightened when she heard this, and she lowered her head slightly: "I was raised in Chongming Temple when I was a child, and now I have been back in Yangzhou for less than two months, and I have only met my father a few times. ”

Xu Shi frowned, and immediately calmed down: "Ah Wei was also prone to illness when she was young, and I often took her to the Buddhist temple to live for a while. Her father was always very busy on weekdays, but Ah Wei would come over to take a look after staying for a long time. When I became a father, I always looked like this, but I didn't know how to say it clearly. ”

This time, without waiting for Gu Mingxiu to speak, Mu Lan, who was playing with her young daughter Ah Wei, couldn't help it: "This lady is not talking about my master." She remembered everything she had experienced in the mansion in the past few days, and she couldn't help but feel a little indignant in her heart, "My girl has been raised in the temple for eleven years, but the master has never seen it once, and he has never sent anyone to ask." Not only the master, but the entire Gu Mansion is like this..... where to treat the girl as the person in the mansion. ”

Mu Lan looked at Gu Mingxiu's weak appearance, and felt even more sad, and couldn't help but continue: "The girl is always not allowed to mention it, for fear of causing more trouble." But in this house, the girl will be bullied by others if she doesn't provoke others, and the lord favors the second lady everywhere, where has she ever looked at the girl? ”

"Muran!" Mo Zhu frowned and shouted in a low voice, "Don't say it." ”

Xu is an outsider in the end, and now he has told her so much that he is afraid that he will leave a handle in the future. Moreover, in the past eleven years, Gu Mingxiu has been wandering between life and death, and he has been very frightened, and he has gradually become sad because he has not seen the sisters in the house to play with him every time, and now he is afraid that mentioning Mozhu will make Gu Mingxiu sad.

"I just looked, they are very concerned about your appearance...."Xu Shi smiled slightly, as if he didn't care about Mu Lan's words and attitude, and the smile on his face did not change in the slightest, "You are so young, you must have been very sad at that time." ”

Xu sighed as he spoke, reached out and gently stroked the top of Gu Mingxiu's hair.

Gu Mingxiu pursed her lips and said softly: "I was very sad, but every time I was tortured by illness, I always saw my mother washing her face with tears, so I just thought that I could live a few more days and accompany my mother, so I was not so sad." She turned her head and looked at Ah Wei, who was having a lot of fun on the small table, and there was a bit of nostalgia in her eyes.

I only heard the girl sigh softly: "I just wish I could be with my family well....."

She lowered her head, with a shallow smile on her lips, and a few strands of sideburns fluttered down to cover her eyes, looking very lonely. Xu couldn't bear it, and was about to say something, when he was interrupted by a voice with a hint of impatience: "Where?" ”

Everyone in the room turned their heads to look, but saw the middle-aged man striding over, with a bit of sternness between his eyebrows.

Seeing the person, Gu Mingxiu got up slowly, and she quietly saluted the person: "Father." ”

Gu Qingyuan's face sank and he strode forward. An Li and Dong Qing were walking into the room, and they clearly saw the next scene. Before almost everyone could react, Gu Qingyuan raised his hand and slapped Gu Mingxiu fiercely: "Evil girl!" ”

"What are you doing!?" Although the Xu family is married to a military general, he does not know martial arts, so he has never reacted even if he stands beside Gu Mingxiu. Gu Mingxiu was slapped back, Xu quickly got up and hugged Gu Mingxiu, who was unsteady on his feet, and said with a cold face.

An Li was stunned for two seconds, then rushed over and grabbed Gu Qingyuan's hand that was still in the air, and said in disbelief: "Master, what are you doing-"

Gu Qingyuan was a scholar back then, and he was powerless, but now he is not. An Li's physical strength has been lost too much for Gu Qingyuan over the years, and he is no longer a heroic general. Gu Qingyuan shook his hand casually, and An Li was taken two steps unsteadily. She glanced at Gu Qingyuan with a complicated meaning, and turned her head to look at Gu Mingxiu in Xu's arms: "Xiu'er!" ”

This slap was expected by Gu Mingxiu. Old Madam Gu must have taught Gu Qingyuan a lesson, hoping that he would come to apologize and rebuild the relationship between father and daughter. It's just that in Gu Qingyuan's ears, those words are what she robbed Gu Changge, reputation, status....Old Madam Gu will inevitably mention cultivating the two together, which is to point out another way to Gu Qingyuan in disguise.

As long as Gu Mingxiu is dead, no one will stop Gu Changge.

Just now, she quietly took a small step back, and deliberately tilted her head when Gu Qingyuan made a move, but in fact, the force that fell on her face was not as serious as that that was seen by others. At this moment, she can't fall yet, and she has to finish this play.

Lying in Xu's arms, Gu Mingxiu's voice was weak: "... Why? ”

An Li looked at the crimson half of her cheeks, tears gathered in her eyes, and turned her head and asked, "Why?!" ”

Gu Qingyuan didn't feel the slightest guilt, but there was a little disgust in her eyes: "As a younger sister, she doesn't know how to respect her eldest sister at all, but she is tired of Changge being implicated in vain!" ”

When Gu Changge heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down: "Father! Maybe this matter is just a misunderstanding, how can you treat the fourth sister like this? She just went to the ghost gate. ”

"Yes, sir, this matter is completely our fault, we already know that it is a misunderstanding, this Wenhui matter... It must also be a misunderstanding, Siniang is so weak, how can you ..... in front of Madame, master?" Dong Qing stepped forward and knelt beside Gu Changge, with unbearability and panic on his face, as well as a trace of pain.

Different from his attitude towards Gu Mingxiu, Gu Qingyuan was full of anger, but when he turned his head to look at the mother and daughter, he softened his tone: "It's not your fault for this, don't plead for such a shameless person like this!" He bent down to help the two of them, not even bothering to give An Li and the two of them a look, "An Li, take care of your daughter!" Don't let her provoke Changge again, if she makes trouble with her mother again..."

Half of the words were left behind, with a faint threat.

This is something that An Li taught Gu Qingyuan in the officialdom, but he is using it here at the moment.

Mo Zhu's eyes changed slightly, and Miao Lan coaxed the frightened little girl to suppress the indignation in her eyes. Xu Shi helped Gu Mingxiu without speaking, but he could clearly feel that the aura around her was a little angry.

Gu Mingxiu clearly felt that the fingers holding his cheeks stiffened slightly, and even standing in place with this person lost the courage to move. Raising her hand weakly, she put it into An Li's palm with difficulty, and Gu Mingxiu closed her fingers to hold her hand.

An Li came back to his senses, his always peaceful eyes rippled, desolate, mocking, helpless..... all kinds of emotions flashed, and finally he was just frozen in a dead silence, with a bitter smile on his lips, and tears falling all over his hands without realizing it.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
