Chapter 107: Distressed
The envelope was handed to Jin Nian, and the plum blossom characters on the silk show were indeed Aunt Rong's handwriting.
Jin Nian took it, weighed it twice in his hand, and threw it into the charcoal basin next to the bed, the charcoal fire was burning vigorously, and it only took a moment to bring up a wisp of green smoke.
Gu Yanyi laughed silently, and he asked Jin Nian, "Aren't you curious about what is written in it?" ”
He suddenly felt that he was a little naïve, and wanted to amuse her with the failures of those she hated, but seeing that she was not in a high mood, he suddenly wanted to find a topic to talk to her.
Jin Nian shook his head: "Fourth Brother Gu didn't open the letter, but didn't it all deal with it properly?" This letter is the same whether you look at it or not, anyway, Aunt Rong's methods in the back house are nothing more than trying to ruin my reputation, and she wants to pretend to be a good person in front of my father and grandmother and care about me......"
This is the first time she has said other people's things in front of herself, without anger or ridicule, but her calm tone made Gu Yanyi feel distressed, a pure and kind woman like her should not live in the calculations of those people.
His slender hand clenched unconsciously, and he no longer mentioned the matter of faith: "...... What I mean, you can recuperate in this mountain, and then go back to Suzhou City. ”
Although she has woken up now, she looks at her and has no energy, and if she catches the wind and cold again, she is afraid that it will aggravate her condition.
Jin Nian frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Father got the message you asked the post station to pass on, I'm afraid that he will rush to Suzhou to find me, and if he can't see anyone, he will be in a hurry......"
Gu Yanyi lowered her eyes to look at her, her usual bright eyes were a little dim, and her face was even more undisguised.
He sighed in his heart, casually pulled a small stool and sat next to the brazier next to her bed, and said with a smile: "Aren't you still worried about my errands?" I have already arranged for someone to wait for Uncle Shi in Suzhou City, and if Uncle Shi really comes from Huai'an, I will have someone bring him here to see you. ”
Afraid that she didn't want to stay in this mountain for a long time, after all, she was used to eating and drinking, so he said, "Don't worry, we won't stay here for a long time." We have to go out of the mountain before Xiaohan arrives, otherwise it will be snowed again later. ”
Jin Nian was silent, he was the future minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was the one who gave advice to the emperor, how could he not think of this?
After saying what he had to say, silence returned to the room, and since he woke up, Jin Nian was in a trance, remembering the dream from time to time.
When the cuckoo came in, he saw Gu Yanyi sitting on the edge of the bed and roasting the fire, his own lady leaning on the head of the bed, neither of them spoke, and occasionally there was a charcoal explosion of "beepping", there was no extra furniture in the house, a simple wooden bed, and a stool with missing legs, but the scene was strangely quiet and warm.
Du Juan was stunned, when did his own young lady not give Gu Gongzi a cold face? It's only been three days apart, but what happened in the middle of it that she didn't know?
She looked at Jin Nian, but saw that her young lady was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking. She opened her mouth and wanted to ask Mademoiselle what she wanted for dinner. Gu Cheng brought many dishes.
When she was hesitating to ask, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Gu Yanyi looking sideways at her, her eyes a little cold.
The cuckoo's heart shrank and quietly withdrew.
At noon on the fourth day, the cabin ushered in Su Youhua, and Xie Qian came with him, who was led by Gu Cheng.
Compared with the previous few days, the weather was much warmer at this time, the snow outside had almost melted, the rugged mountain road was steep and slippery, Jin Nian saw that his father and Xie Qian's robes were wet, and the soles of their boots were stained with a lot of mud.
has been seriously ill, and in the past few days, although accompanied by the cuckoo, Gu Yanyi occasionally comes to her room to talk, but she has not been in a high mood. First, the illness has not yet healed, and second, I have been thinking about that dream in my heart.
She even had a guess that something like that might have happened in her previous life.
Therefore, when she sees her close relatives, she can't stop crying.
Su Youhua panicked, thinking that she was afraid after suffering all the grievances in the past few days, he stretched out his hand to wipe her tears and comforted: "...... After the incident, before entering the house, your fourth brother Gu simply told me, your brother who is not angry, how can he leave his sister alone and only care about running away, I will punish him well when I go back, and Aunt Rong is getting more and more ridiculous......"
He was distressed and blamed himself, if he had let Jinnian go back to Yangzhou earlier, where would so many things have happened later?
Jin Nian just cried out the worries, fears and confusion of the past few days, and when he saw his father guilty, he choked up a few times before gradually receiving his tears: "It's all because I'm not angry, and I still have to leave my father's cold weather, and I have to leave my official duties to see me in the mountains......"
Su Youhua looked at his daughter and child carefully, although she had lost some weight, her complexion had returned to her paleness, and when she heard this, she feigned anger and said, "If it weren't for your fourth brother Gu, would you plan to hide the encounter with the homeless and not report it to me?" ”
Jin Nian smiled and didn't speak.
Su Youhua sighed: "This time, thanks to your fourth brother Gu, our family owes him a great favor, how can we pay it back in the future......
On the second day after receiving the letter from the post station, before dawn, he and Xie Qian set off for Suzhou, and when they arrived in Suzhou, they learned that their girl was bumped into by the homeless people and hid in the mountains to Orion's house.
Gu Cheng is also a good person, since he guessed his son-in-law's thoughts, he tried his best to talk about the danger of the day, and the difficult environment when Jin Nian was ill, and mentioned a few words of Gu Yanyi's efforts without a trace.
Therefore, before seeing her daughter, Su Youhua's gratitude to Gu Yanyi suddenly went straight to the top.
Jin Nian was silent, in her previous life, even if Gu Yanyi abandoned herself when she was in a desperate situation, he paid it off several times in this life. What's more, since ancient times, no man can tolerate a fiancée who has lost his innocence.
After all, in this life, she really owes Gu Yanyi many favors!
After thinking about it, she suddenly couldn't wait to find the murderer as soon as possible, and wanted to confirm the mastermind behind the scenes.
She blinked and said to her father, "Daddy, you see, I'm seven or eight minutes better now, let me go back to Suzhou City with you and my cousin this afternoon!" ”
Afraid that her father would not agree, she continued to complain: "Look here, there is nothing, there is a lack of medical treatment, and there is no good food, my mouth has been very light these days......
Su Youhua raised her eyebrows to see her coquettish, and that coquettish posture made his heart soft, and he couldn't cry or laugh.
However, he still refused with a straight face: "...... Don't think I don't know, you Fourth Brother Gu rushed to the night to tie Lang Zhong to see you for a doctor, these days, the chicken and fish transported to the mountains have not been broken, but you can't eat too much greasy now, you Fourth Brother Gu asked Aunt Cheng to prepare a light meal to ...... with you"
Jin Nian was stunned, a few days ago, Aunt Cheng also told her, "I don't know what method Gu Gongzi used to invite Langzhong?" ”。
Unexpectedly, it was tied up, his elegant person, she couldn't imagine what it would be like when he was ruthless.
Seeing that her eyes were stunned, Xie Qian on the side felt a lot of bad feelings.
