Chapter 106: Walking towards Yuguan
It is said that this Nan Yue arrived at Guo's mansion and served Guo Xiaoxiao very carefully. Guo Xiaoxiao also loves this girl very much, and within a few days, Nan Yue became the number one female envoy in Guo Xiaoxiao's yard.
After what happened last time, Guo Xiaoxiao relieved himself and picked up the letter of resignation written by Yuan Shaocheng himself to read it carefully. I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it. It turns out that this is not a divorce, but a divorce.
Guo Xiaoxiao's fingers trembled, but he didn't expect it to be a book! Guo Xiaoxiao said in his heart, it turned out that even if he reached the last moment, he still couldn't bear to kill them all, and still hoped that she could have a good home.
Yuan Shaocheng fulfilled her like this, it really made her hate, and neither did love. She scolded secretly, why don't you do it harder? This feeling of being entangled between love and hate is the most painful.
Guo Xiaoxiao remembered that he was in a hurry to leave the Yuan Mansion, and he didn't take anything with him, including the pendant sent by Jiang Zhiyuan. When he got married, Guo Xiaoxiao took it with him and pressed it in the dowry box......
Not good! Guo Xiaoxiao exclaimed, what if Yuan Shaocheng saw it? Guo Xiaoxiao was so anxious that he rushed out of the room, but after only a few steps, Guo Xiaoxiao stopped again.
What if you see it? Not to mention that Yuan Shaocheng didn't know what it was at all, even if he knew, what did it matter now? She is no longer a member of the Yuan family, and she has nothing to do with Yuan Shaocheng.
However, Guo Xiaoxiao thought again that if Yuan Shaocheng thought that she had made friends with Jiang Zhiyuan first, and then had the idea of making peace with Yuan Shaocheng, the situation would be different.
Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly ordered Nanyue to take his family to Yuan's mansion to get the dowry. The janitor of the Yuan Mansion said that Guo Xiaoxiao is no longer from the Yuan family, so none of the things in the Yuan Mansion belong to Guo Xiaoxiao.
Nan Yue took out the letter of reconciliation written by Yuan Shaocheng, indicating that this was a divorce and not a divorce, and according to custom, the husband's family should return all the dowry.
The little girl refused to agree, and blasted Nan Yue and a few people out of the door, but Nan Yue finally succeeded in getting back the dowry.
Back at Guo's mansion, Guo Xiaoxiao asked carefully: "How are things?" ”
Nan Yue replied: "The slaves and maids have encountered the little maids who are in the way. ”
"Have you seen the young master of the Yuan family?"
"I haven't seen it. The slaves and maids were entangled with the little maid for a long time, and there was a lot of commotion, which alarmed the master inside, and then someone came to open the door. ”
"Who's coming?"
"It's the second lady of the Yuan family. The slave and maid argued with reason, and took out the handwritten book written by the young master of the Yuan family, and they were willing to let us in to get things. ”
There were seven or eight boxes back, and Guo Xiaoxiao carefully checked the number, and there were a lot of them. Guo Xiaoxiao didn't know which one it was, and he was worried that his subordinates would be rude, so he personally opened them one by one to find them.
Nan Yue saw Guo Xiaoxiao rummaging through the box in a hurry, so she asked, "What is the eldest lady looking for?" ”
"Find something very important."
"Is there anything the slave can help?" Nan Yue will try her best to solve problems for Guo Xiaoxiao.
Guo Xiaoxiao crossed his waist with his hands and panted: "There is a Nanmu box with a silver pendant in it, you can help me find it, I'm really tired." ”
"Yes." Nan Yue agreed.
Nan Yue didn't call anyone to help together, she stepped forward and searched carefully, box after box, not busy or chaotic. Nan Yue took out the things one by one, and then put them in again. About half an hour later, Nan Yue took a sandalwood box and handed it to Guo Xiaoxiao and said, "Miss, is this it?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao quickly took it, opened the box, and smiled in surprise: "That's it, why didn't I find it after looking for so long just now?" ”
"It's not uncommon for you to be bold, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and being anxious, and not finding them."
"Yes." Guo Xiaoxiao looked at Nan Yue and said with a smile, "You are really a careful girl, if it weren't for you today, I'm afraid I would have to wait a few more days." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao said as he walked to the round table and sat down, took out the silver pendant in the sandalwood box and wiped it with a handkerchief.
Nan Yue said: "Miss, then take these alleys to the warehouse?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao turned his head and said, "Take it, take it." ”
"Yes." Nan Yue called the little maid and carried everything away.
Seeing Guo Xiaoxiao's love for the silver pendant so much, Nan Yue said: "It seems that the eldest lady loves this silver pendant very much. ”
"Silver pendants aren't a rarity." Guo Xiaoxiao blew on the silver pendant, "But it's different when it's given meaning." ”
"That's what the eldest lady said."
Guo Xiaoxiao has never lacked these jewels. But there are thousands of rivers and mountains, but this one is different. This is Jiang Zhiyuan went to the jewelry store to ask someone to order, naturally there is something new.
Now that the silver pendant is back in his hand, Guo Xiaoxiao is finally relieved. After a while, Nan Yue received the letter.
Nan Yue saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly received the letter and sent it to Guo Xiaoxiao. Guo Xiaoxiao opened it and looked at it, and then asked, "Just arrived?" ”
"I just arrived, and Jiang Feng hasn't been gone for long."
"Hmm." Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "Go prepare the carriage, let's go to Changliju." ”
It turned out that in the letter, Jiang Zhiyuan asked Guo Xiaoxiao to meet in Changliju. Changliju is a famous house in Yangzhou City, there are many literati and scholars, and of course, there are also many wine and meat children.
Guo Xiaoxiao wore a white gauze hat, walked in under the cover of Nan Yue, and then walked through the corridor to a side room. I saw Jiang Zhiyuan with his back to Guo Xiaoxiao, Guo Xiaoxiao lifted the veil and said, "Why did you find such a place?" ”
Jiang Zhiyuan looked back and smiled: "The more lively the place, the more it can hide people's eyes." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao inspected this room everywhere and saw the bead curtain mural and the green screen, so he said: "Are there all such decorations in the hook column?" ”
"What, don't you like it?" Jiang Zhiyuan asked rhetorically.
"No, the scenery is really elegant, but every one of them is like this, so it's nothing special." Guo Xiaoxiao took off the white gauze hat.
Jiang Zhiyuan took her white gauze hat and put it on the hanger on the side, and said, "Miss Guo has high requirements, and ordinary Vashe can't meet them. ”
"Don't you know what I'm like? As for teasing me like this. ”
"I only know that Miss Guo likes calligraphy and painting, and occasionally asks for some gadgets to play at home, if the next one is too vulgar, she is not even worthy of being Miss Guo's companion."
When Guo Xiaoxiao saw the peeled peanuts on the table, he picked up one and threw it towards Jiang Zhiyuan, scolding: "I haven't seen you for a few years, you have become so insignificant, and you will bully me more and more." ”
Jiang Zhiyuan reacted quickly, dodged in a second, walked up to Guo Xiaoxiao and said, "Where do I dare to bully you!" It's just you bullying me. ”
"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, and you just made fun of me." Guo Xiaoxiao turned around.
"It's just a childhood sweetheart, and the two are just joking." Jiang Zhiyuan walked up to her, "Are you really angry?" ”
"Don't talk about anything else." Guo Xiaoxiao looked at him with a raised face, "Let me ask you, what is going on with the Yuan family's case?" ”
"Now that things are settled, what are you worried about?" Jiang Zhiyuan sat down on the stool next to her, looking light and breezy.
"There are a lot of discussions among the people outside, you must have an explanation."
"What do you want to explain to the people?" Jiang Zhiyuan grabbed a few peanuts and put them in his mouth, "The government has already submitted an official document to the top, as long as there is no objection from the top, this matter is over." Moreover, the announcement in front of the yamen has been written very clearly, and if anyone has an opinion, he can go to the yamen again to beat the drum. ”
"Why didn't you make it clear in the hall that day?"
Jiang Zhiyuan explained: "I personally conducted an autopsy with him, and Zheng Xianggong did die unexpectedly. As long as it is confirmed that this matter was not done by Yuan Shaocheng, won't your purpose be achieved? ”
"I ask you why you don't make it clear in the hall?" What Guo Xiaoxiao wants is that the people are convinced.
What kind of notice is it to post a notice in the yamen!
"Yuan Shaocheng's father, Yuan Weisheng, committed a crime more than ten years ago, and Yuan Weisheng committed suicide before the case was investigated, but there was no evidence of his death, and the people thought that Yuan Weisheng had killed someone. What the truth is, no one knows except the real murderer. ”
"Then it's over in a mess?" Guo Xiaoxiao stood up and said.
"If you check it again, you have to dig out Yuan Weisheng's old account. The human and physical evidence back then has long been unclear, how do you want me to check? Jiang Zhiyuan patiently persuaded, "As long as it is confirmed that Yuan Shaocheng did not kill anyone, won't the trouble end if it doesn't provoke him?" ”
"This ......"
"Don't do it here or there. Are you not satisfied that I have given you what you want now? Jiang Zhiyuan pulled her into his arms, let her sit on his lap, and comforted, "This matter is my father's decision, and if I interfere too much, it will make him suspicious." When the time comes, it may backfire. ”
Guo Xiaoxiao bit his lip and didn't say anything more.
"After the New Year, I'm going to clean up the group of thieves in Desolate Mountain." Jiang Zhiyuan touched her face, "When the time comes, maybe your life will hang by a thread, you wait for me to come back in Yangzhou." ”
"How long are you going?"
"This is not clear, it may not be a few days, or it may not be half a month."
"Is it dangerous?" Guo Xiaoxiao looked into his eyes.
Jiang Zhiyuan smiled: "It's not dangerous." I'm brave and good at fighting, and what thief can hurt me! ”
Guo Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that four years ago, on the night of the storm, she scratched her head in front of the Jiangfu and was very anxious. It wasn't until the golden gun carried Jiang Zhiyuan, who was covered in blood, returned from the rain that the stone in Guo Xiaoxiao's heart fell to the ground.
"But weren't you hurt last time?" Guo Xiaoxiao's voice was as low as a mosquito.
"When?" Jiang Zhiyuan can't remember clearly.
"It was when I first came to Yangzhou for a few months."
"Really?" Jiang Zhiyuan smiled, "Do you remember? ”
"Of course. You were hit by an arrow and you bled a lot, and I was terrified......"
"Even if you're afraid, aren't you just as calm?" Jiang Zhiyuan put his arm around her waist, "You are a courageous and intelligent person, if it weren't for you that time, I might have died." ”
"No, it won't." Guo Xiaoxiao held his face with both hands and said word by word, "I won't let you die." ”
"Thank you for your care and gratitude."
"That's what I should have said." Guo Xiaoxiao's hand slid towards his neck, "You have helped me a lot, and I have never forgotten how good you were to me." ”
