Chapter Seventy-Nine, Shot
Shen Qingqing's post was at the beginning of the month, and to her surprise, she was not the only one who was invited, but the entire noble circle of Yangzhou, inviting all the young ladies and sons to a flower hall in Yilan Garden to taste tea. Gu Mingxiu received the post, which also means that this post is for the entire General's Mansion.
When Shen Qingqing was asked, the other party was cutting the flower branches, and said indifferently: "It's not that your cousin didn't know anyone when she first entered Yangzhou, so she chose a name for tea tasting for her to meet." Shen Qingqing put down the scissors and looked at her with a smile, "Your cousin is also very powerful, and she caused trouble in Yilan Garden as soon as she returned to Yangzhou." β
Gu Mingxiu casually played with the flower branches that had been cut off, and said lightly: "Don't worry, my cousin has never cared much about this." She looked at An Ting, who was pulling Gu Liyi around the female dependents in the garden, and shook her head, "It's just that you have wasted your thoughts, she has never liked to know those official ladies." β
Telling the maid to take out the flower pot, Shen Qingqing glanced at it casually, and pulled her up with a faint "um". Bypassing the corridor, Shen Qingqing said: "That's it, I won't go around in circles with you." It's fake to ask them, it's true to ask you. β
Gu Mingxiu followed her forward, and said "oh" quietly: "If you invite me, why use these troublesome methods?" β
"Fei'er....Fei'er's eldest brother ..... that day because of the horse farm" Shen Qingqing paused, frowned, and said, "Although I don't like that person, after all, Fei'er's eldest brother." Fei'er has been depressed for many days, although Miss Liu has been offended, but she is sad in the end, I am anxious, I want to see if you have any way. β
Shen Qingqing sighed and looked back at her: "I told Fei'er that you cleaned up Miss Liu." The two walked to the door at this moment, but Shen Qingqing pulled her to pause, and she sighed softly, "I attach great importance to Fei'er as a friend, and I am also very close to you, I just hope that the two of you can get along well." β
She knocked on the door and said softly, "You can talk to Fei'er first." β
Shen Qingqing pushed open the door, glanced inside without saying a word, and then looked back at Gu Mingxiu, then turned around and walked towards the same way, with the usual coldness on his face.
Gu Mingxiu stood at the door for a moment, and then slowly walked in. Bypassing the wide screen, I saw the thin girl sitting in a daze. The beautiful woman with her back to her was wearing a long white dress, hanging her head slightly, and she called out extremely tired after hearing the movement: "Qingqing? β
"Miss Ning." Gu Mingxiu paused, "Don't come unharmed." β
Hearing her voice, Ning Fei was slightly stunned, and then immediately turned around and looked at her in surprise. After a moment of silence, she lowered her eyes and replied softly with some helplessness: "Don't come to harm....Miss Gu." Reaching out and tucking his sideburns, Ning Fei looked away, "I heard that you have returned to the General's Mansion now, and you want to come... It's a lot better than it used to be. β
Gu Mingxiu didn't answer, just stood beside her and raised her eyes to look at the surrounding scenery.
They both were silent for a moment.
Coughing lightly, Ning Fei clenched his fingers into a fist to his lips, and hooked a weak smile: "I heard....It was Miss Gu who helped me and solved Miss Liu." She smiled wryly, "I... I really don't know how to thank you. β
With her long hair moving, Gu Mingxiu reached out and pulled her sideburns, and said lightly: "Thank you?" You don't hate me. β
Ning Fei chuckled: "I know what you mean. She closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, then sighed lightly, "What happened to the racecourse that day, my brother was wrong first, he... He was instructed to calculate your little brother, and he should be guilty. It's just that he's my big brother after all..."
Tears burst out of her eyes in an instant, Ning Fei hurriedly lowered his head and wiped his tears, turned his head and said, "I.. I can't say I don't hate you, I don't mean anything about you. If you weren't there that day, I'm afraid it would be Young Master Gu who had an accident, so there was nothing wrong with what you did that day... Besides, it was my brother who said the wrong thing and caused trouble, which provoked His Royal Highness King Xiaoβ"
Ning Fei smiled bitterly: "I can't wait to die in those days, my good godbrother is not lonely on the Nai He Bridge, in the end, Qingqing has always been with me." She found out the truth of the matter for me, and told me that you counted Miss Liu in the prison, and I heard that she died a few days ago..."
The girl's voice was choked with a few hints of choking.
Gu Mingxiu casually turned his head to look.
The girl in white leaned against the wooden door, her long clothes were blown by the wind, her sideburns brushed her cheeks, her long eyelashes were half drooping, and a few drops of crystal fell on her eyelashes. She lowered her eyes, bit her lip with her teeth, and looked sideways at the pitiful Chu Chu and the lovely, as beautiful as a hibiscus out of the water.
Gu Mingxiu laughed softly: "The wicked have their own retribution, it's not that they don't report it, it's just that the time has not come." She blinked, very gentle, "Miss Ning, have you ever heard....Heavenly Dao is good for reincarnation?" β
Her tone was soft and light, as if a little cold and fleeting.
Ning Fei looked back at her gaze and couldn't help but be stunned. Indescribable feelings filled her heart, she couldn't help but tighten her sleeves, and barely showed a gentle smile: "So....." β
Gu Mingxiu looked at her gently: "Yes, those who do evil things will inevitably have retribution, whether it is a user or a person with bad intentions." She cleaned up her gaze, got up, and smiled slightly, "I think Miss Ning has already thought about it, so don't stay here for long, be careful of the wind and cold." β
"It's very noisy down there, I'll go find them first."
Gu Mingxiu smiled at her as if soothingly, and walked out with a step.
"Ming embroidery." Ning Fei's voice was blown away in the wind, and the girl looked back at her, her eyes showing a little nervousness and uneasiness, "We... Can you continue to be friends, if I invite you out, will you come...? β
Gu Ming embroidered his head: "Yes." β
She walked out.
Ning Fei behind him showed a gentle smile, as if relieved: "That....it's great." β
Shen Qingqing didn't wait outside. Gu Mingxiu walked back to the place where she was pruning the flower branches just now, and she didn't see Shen Qingqing and other people she knew, so she went downstairs. Mo Zhu was waiting at the staircase, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she came down: "The eldest lady has been clamoring to see the weapon, so the fifth lady took her there, leaving the slave to talk to the girl." β
"yes, I see." Gu Mingxiu nodded.
She walked out of the attic and stopped: "Are you waiting for me here," Gu Mingxiu bent out a casual and somewhat mocking smile, fleeting, "Second sister." β
After a pause, Gu Mingxiu laughed lightly: "My mother has already reconciled, and it would be a bit unruly to call your second sister again....isn't it, Second Miss Gu?" β
Gu Changge clenched the handkerchief under his sleeve, and a reproachful smile appeared on his face: "Fourth sister, what are you talking about?" We are a family, even if ...... After all, it's the second sister, and I hope the fourth sister won't worry about me. She stepped forward to save Gu Mingxiu, and said half-truthfully, "Could it be that you really don't recognize me as a second sister?" β
But it was Mo Zhu who stepped forward and stopped in front of Gu Changge.
The purple-shirted girl raised her eyes and looked at her coldly. A little light emotion was fleeting, and the girl sighed lightly, not hesitating at all: "I only have one sister in Yiyi, where is the second sister." Your father's surname is Gu, but your mother's surname is Dong, what does it have to do with me? β
Gu Mingxiu looked at her with a smile: "After all, there is no one else here, why don't the second sister get straight to the point?" β
Her eyes cooled inch by inch: "If it is for my aunt and Gu Xuan, I will advise you not to waste your time, Gu Qingyuan can't save them, and I won't save them." She curled her lips, utterly cold, "After all....they're doing it themselves." β
"You!" Gu Changge's face sank suddenly when he heard this, and the anger in his eyes couldn't be hidden. She flicked her sleeves and glared at Gu Mingxiu angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "You don't have to think... Don't think I don't know! You are not Gu Mingxiu at all! I don't know what you did that day, but you just-"
She glanced around in a panic, and said in a low voice: "As long as you help me go to General An and rescue my mother and eldest brother, I won't tell others about this!" At that time, you do your Gu Mingxiu well, and I won't provoke you again! How is it?! β
Mo Zhu still stopped Gu Changge, and his expression did not change in the slightest when he heard this.
Gu Mingxiu chuckled, bypassed Mozhu and stepped forward to stand in front of Gu Changge. Her demeanor was gentle, and her words were shallow and faint: "Second sister, you are really not half an aunt's smart." That's just an illusion I made to coax you, just to let you think of slandering your mother. β
"You see, neither you nor your aunt have failed me, and the time is very good, so you did it in front of my grandfather." Gu Mingxiu lowered his head, his expression was gentle, and his tone was calm and indifferent, "I already knew your plan, but it was just a plan." I won't help you plead, no matter what you say, Gu Qingyuan has come to beg me for hundreds of years.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said softly: "After all, Gu Xuan and Dong Qing were sent in by me." β
As soon as the words fell, a nameless fire rushed straight to the bottom of my heart. Gu Changge glared at her in disbelief, his hand holding the handkerchief trembling slightly. She stared at Gu Mingxiu, and suddenly screamed: "You slut!" After that, he raised his hand and slapped Gu Mingxiu's face fiercely-
"Girl!" Mo Zhu screamed and hurriedly pounced.
At the same time, a figure flew over, accompanied by an angry female voice: "Who told you to hit my cousin?!" β
With a "snap", a long whip flung over, brushed Gu Changge's cheek, and hit her falling wrist with great accuracy. The crimson whip marks instantly showed traces, and blood quickly oozed out.
Gu Changge screamed, covered his cheeks and took a few steps back, knelt on the ground in embarrassment, and kept screaming: "My face!" My face! My face hurts! β
The person holding the whip quickly passed the person on the ground, hurriedly ran to Gu Mingxiu's side, and asked her angrily: "Xiu'er, where was you beaten?" Does it hurt? She glared viciously at the man on the ground, "Which hand did you say she hit you?" And I took it off! β
It is Anting.
