Chapter 72: Surprise
Xiaoman was in a dilemma all of a sudden, she was a little hesitant, from childhood to adulthood, as long as Gu Yu's brother asked her to do something, she never resisted, no matter how difficult things were, she could solve them one by one, but now this matter made it difficult for her to choose.
Raising his eyes and looking at Gu Yu's disappointed face, Xiao Man couldn't bear it, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Gu Yu, I'll help you." β
Gu Yu's eyes lit up and confirmed, "Are you sure you want to help me?" Will it make you embarrassed? β
Xiao Man shook his head, "Well, sure, it's my duty to save people anyway, and only I can do this." "Since Brother Gu Yu has begged her to take action, it seems that the person in the palace should be very sick, and she doesn't want Brother Gu Yu to be embarrassed, it just so happens that she will go back to meet the people in the Sun Mansion and find out who prevented her mother from entering the ancestral hall of the Sun family.
Thinking of this, Xiao Man's heart suddenly refreshed a lot, and his eyes brightened.
Gu Yu also relieved his heart, it seems that the matter has been resolved.
"But Brother Gu Yu, what kind of big man is the person in the palace you are talking about, it can't be the emperor." If you can move that person, your status must be very high, Xiao Man guessed.
Gu Yu smiled silently, looking at her quietly, when he knew who that person was, Xiao Man's eyes widened in surprise, and he sighed in his heart, it turned out to be such a big person......
When Xiao Man walked out of the study, he was no longer the same as before he went in, Ling Xiaoxiao stepped forward, first circled around her, and saw that there was nothing unusual, before he asked, "Nothing happened, right-"
Xiao Man's eyes were firm, "I'm going to go out in a while, don't worry." β
Xiao Man, who was still resisting going out before, seemed to be impatient at the moment, Ling Xiaoxiao was curious, what kind of dishes Gu Yu told her made her change so quickly.
"Is it the pavilion master who coerced you, Xiaoman, don't be afraid, I'm definitely on your side-" Ling Xiaoxiao asked, but as soon as the words fell, he saw a slender figure walking out of the study.
"Pavilion Masterβ" Xiao Man shouted, holding his forehead, and had been glancing at her just now, but she hadn't noticed.
Ling Xiaoxiao on the side was already in a sluggish state, how she hoped that there was a hole in the ground now, and she could get into it.
"What do you want?" Raising his eyebrows, Gu Yu said lightly.
Ling Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly, and began to justify herself: "Pavilion Master, you must have heard it wrong, I saw Xiao Man's eyes red, and I thought that someone was bullying her, but I thought about it again, how could Xiao Man be bullied when the Pavilion Master was present, right, Xiao Man." β
After speaking, he winked vigorously at Xiao Man, Xiao Man nodded, "That's right." β
staged such an obvious action in front of his eyes, Gu Yu didn't say anything, "Xiaoman, you hurry back to the room to clean up, and send someone to send you out later." "That matter in the palace can't be delayed, it's better to finish it early, so that he can rest assured.
"Yes, Pavilion Master." Not as strong as the previous resistance, Xiao Man responded.
Ling Xiaoxiao on the side was a little anxious, "Go out?" Where are you going? β
Xiao Man smiled, "Just go out to do something and come back soon." β
"But......" Ling Xiaoxiao, who was obviously crying so hard just now, how could he suddenly get better, and he wanted to say something more swept in front of the two in front of him, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a barrier between him and them, an untouchable barrier.
A lonely look flashed on her face, Ling Xiaoxiao lowered her head silently, Xiaoman thought she was worried about her, so she grabbed Ling Xiaoxiao's hands and comforted: "Xiaoxiao, I'm really fine, I'll come back as soon as the matter is done, and besides, I don't want to stay in that place for a long time." β
Ling Xiaoxiao raised her head, a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth, "Really?" That's good. She felt that she was in a very strange mood now, obviously something she was used to, why did she feel so depressed, as if she didn't want them to see anything, she pulled out a reason, "Oh, I just remembered that Aunt Liu asked me to help with the work just now, and I won't accompany you, Xiaoman." β
After that, without waiting for Xiao Man to respond, she turned around and left, Xiao Man said a little strangely: "Wasn't Aunt Liu in the front hall just now?" How did Xiaoxiao go in the direction of the backyard. Scratching his head, thinking that there was still something to do, he didn't dwell too much.
Gu Yu on the side, staring at Ling Xiaoxiao's back as he left, looked a little distracted......
Ling Xiaoxiao walked for a while before she found that it was in the direction of the backyard, looked back and saw that there was no one behind her, so she turned a corner and went back to the room.
Poured a cup of tea from the table, drank two large cups in a row, and calmed down, thinking about it, she originally entered the Fengxian Pavilion because of debts, although she had been here for a while, but for her, the Fengxian Pavilion was still a strange place, except for a few people who were closer to her.
But even if it is Moying Xiaoman, there are some things she can't ask, let alone Gu Yu, she used to feel that she went with the flow, and she didn't pay attention to it at all, but today she is a little strange, looking at the place between Gu Yu and Xiaoman that she can't accommodate, she feels astringent in her heart, and she panics, this is something that has never happened before, she thought, maybe she really hasn't had a good rest recently, so she has so many strange thoughts.
patted his cheeks, paced to the bed, plunged into the quilt, forced himself to rest, there was no sleep, but with his eyes closed, he fell asleep after a while, and he slept until evening.
When she woke up, it was getting dark outside, and she touched her stomach, but fortunately she had eaten a big bowl of noodles on the street today, so she was not very hungry.
Suddenly thinking of Xiaoman's matter, Ling Xiaoxiao hurriedly opened the door and rushed out, and after a while, he came to Xiaoman's room, the door was closed, and there was no one in the room.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, he saw a maid approaching.
"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here?" The maid asked, holding the gift box in her hand.
"I'm looking for Xiaoman." Ling Xiaoxiao explained the meaning.
The maid was surprised, "Miss Xiaoman just went out, and it was sent by the pavilion master himself, don't you know?" "I haven't usually seen Miss Xiaoman so close to anyone, Miss Xiaoman went out, she didn't know.
Sure enough, she didn't expect that she just rested, and slept for so long, catching a glimpse of the delicate box in the maid's hand, Ling Xiaoxiao asked, "What is this?" β
The maid replied: "This was just given to Miss Xiaoman, and it just so happened that Miss Xiaoman was not there, so I put it in the house for her." β
Ling Xiaoxiao nodded, and when he saw that the person was not there, he also planned to go back to the room: "Then I'll go first, you can continue to be busy." β
The maid opened the door and placed the gift box on the dresser, but what she didn't notice was that she almost knocked over to the ground, after Ling Xiaoxiao heard the movement, she glanced at the house, saw the maid's movements, chuckled, and left, the maid hurriedly rearranged the gift box, revealing a hairpin from the corner of the box, and the golden phoenix tail was shining-
