Chapter 41: Homecoming
The place where I left gradually became noisy, and it was supposed that the fire had been discovered and gathered around.
"When the fire is extinguished, what will happen if Han Hong is discovered?"
He Xinmu didn't know anything about such a thing, so he asked.
"Report to the official, and then it's over."
Really......
That's the best.
"So where do you go now?"
Xue Mu didn't answer, but put He Shuyun down and said, "Wait here for a while, I'll be back immediately." ”
A dodge is gone.
I don't know what he's going to do, and since he's gone, He Xinmu doesn't promise that he will wait here obediently.
But He Shuyun couldn't pull it, no matter whether she shook or pinched her, she didn't have any reaction.
He Xinmu was discouraged.
can only wait obediently for Xue Mu to come back.
Being controlled by others made her feel a little aggrieved.
After a while, a carriage drove towards this side, and He Xinmu was relieved to see that the driver was Xue Mu from a distance.
Got into the carriage and the carriage drove slowly.
He Xinmu was thinking in the carriage, how to explain where he was going tonight when he went back, and the embarrassment between the two.
Especially her, her face was covered in blood.
I really don't know what to say.
Lifted the curtain and asked, "Do you want to take me back now?" ”
"Yes."
"Is there any other choice?"
"Then I will not guarantee He Shuyun's safety."
"How can I explain this body, just say that I killed someone, and let my father deal with it for me?"
Xue Mu said, "When the time comes, you will know what to say." ”
"And the eldest sister, you stunned her, she didn't have a chance to string words, and she had to be exposed when she asked."
At this time, the carriage arrived in a crowded place, and He Xinmu was inconvenient to probe it and retract back into the carriage.
The carriage stopped and walked sometimes, and occasionally the sound of Xue Mu talking to people could be faintly heard.
It's been a long time.
"Phew." Xue Mu stopped the car and said, "Get down." ”
He Xinmu probed out, but it was just a remote house.
"Where is this?" Didn't you say that you would go back to Hefu?
Out of some kind of trust, although doubtful, I jumped out of the car.
Xue Mu knocked on the door, according to a certain rhythm, some light and some heavy.
The door opened a crack, and an old woman came out and saw that it was Xue Mu, so she opened the door and let them in, ignoring He Xinmu behind her.
He Xinmu was not worried about He Shuyun, and glanced at the carriage.
Xue Mu grabbed her shoulders and pushed her in.
"Don't worry, I'll watch." Xue Mu seemed to see through her thoughts.
instructed the old woman: "Help her clean up, and follow me back to Hefu later." ”
The old woman frowned and looked at He Xinmu.
I don't know whose blood it is stained with, it's quite embarrassing, but the clothes on my body are the best materials, not like the usual girls. He looked at her with inquiring eyes, without a trace of worry or fear about the environment he fell into.
If he is not stupid, he has a lot of trust in Xue Mu.
With a hoarse voice, he guessed, "This is Miss Hefu?" ”
"Yes." Xue Mu chuckled, "She's not an ordinary young lady, time is tight, hurry up." ”
The old woman nodded and motioned for He Xinmu to follow her into the inner room.
Xue Mu is very capable of hooking Miss He Fu, these two people......
The house was very simple, and there was some rotten smell, so the old woman poured a basin of water and put it in front of her, and went up to pull her clothes.
"What for?"
"Give me the clothes, I'll clean them up, you freshen up here first."
"Then how do I explain the change of clothes when I go home, you are pushing me into the fire pit."
He Xinmu still wanted to resist and express his dissatisfaction with Xue Mu.
The old woman said, "Since Xiao Xue asked you to change, then it will be fine." ”
Carry Xue Mu out.
Could it be that He Bingzhen wants to deal with her, and Xue Mu can also stop her?
He Xinmu was disdainful, but the old woman grabbed her clothes and obviously didn't plan to let go.
Change it, Xue Mu said so, if he is questioned, just push it directly on him, see how he responds.
took off all the clothes except for the dirty clothes and handed them over, and the old woman took them out and motioned her to take care of them by herself.
There was a charcoal fire burning in the house, and it was a little cold to wear so little.
He quickly washed his face, combed his slightly sticky hair, and a basin of water had turned into blood.
There was still a pot of water hot on the stove next to him, He Xinmu took it directly and used it, changed the water and washed it again, and then felt refreshed.
But there is nothing that can be done about the redness that also oozes from the obscene clothes.
The old woman walked in with a baggage.
From the bag, she took out a dress that was very similar to her previous color.
He Xinmu's eyes lit up.
Anyway, it's late at night, who will take a closer look at what she's wearing, make do with tonight, and it'll be fine.
I didn't expect them to find clothes similar to hers so quickly.
After changing her clothes, the old woman combed her hair again before going out of the back room.
But Xue Mu was not seen.
The old woman explained: "He is waiting for you outside. ”
He Xinmu said "oh", walked to the door, turned around and said "thank you" to the old woman before going out.
Xue Mu was really waiting for her in the carriage.
He Xinmu ignored Xue Mu, who was waiting for her in the carriage, and climbed straight into the carriage.
Lifted the curtain and was stunned for a moment.
He Shuyun still slept soundly, but there was an extra black cloak on her body, and another one was neatly stacked next to her.
Resisting the urge to turn her head sideways and ask, she found similar clothes, two cloaks are nothing.
Having entered the carriage, the carriage continued to walk.
This time, it didn't take long to arrive at the side gate of Hefu.
Xue Mu asked in a low voice: "You know what to say, but don't get out of the basket." ”
He Xinmu let out a muffled "um".
As long as Han Hong's vignette is omitted, everything will be fine.
Xue Mu knocked on the door, was asked, and answered a few words.
As soon as the people inside heard that it was the two young ladies who had returned, they hurriedly opened the door to let them in, and someone else went to inform the main courtyard.
The carriage can't walk in the mansion, and it can't enter the door at all, but He Shuyun is still asleep, and Xue Mu can't hold it in anymore.
Then he said: "Let's wait for the lady and the young master to come over first, I haven't seen the eldest lady and the third lady, in case I find the wrong person to bring it back, wouldn't it be bad." ”
The gatekeeper thought he was too cautious, and glanced towards the carriage, but there was no movement. I wondered if this man had deceived him, maybe there was no one in the carriage at all.
I think so, but I can't say that.
Instead, his face was full of joy: "Brother, you have made a great contribution, the lady and the eldest young master are still waiting, and your reward will be indispensable when you turn back." ”
Xue Mu was also full of pride, and said with a smile: "I am also acting on the orders of the adults, where did I get any credit, don't make fun of me." ”
The two of you chatted with each other.
When he saw Zhou from afar, he was silent.
Zhou never saw the two girls come back, and he was in a hurry, so he rushed to the side door with his son as soon as he got the report.
When He Xinmu heard Zhou's voice, he lifted the curtain, jumped out of the carriage awkwardly, and saluted: "Mother, eldest brother." ”
Zhou looked at her, He Xinmu was wearing a black cloak, the clothes under the cloak were quite neat, and his face was full of smiles, slightly embarrassed.
can be regarded as a good return, just breathed a sigh of relief, but then I lifted my heart, why is there no He Shuyun?
He Xinmu knew what she wanted to ask, and explained: "I lost my way with my eldest sister, thanks to this little brother who brought us back, but my eldest sister took care of me and was tired, and I caught a cold, and I fell asleep in the car in a daze, and I couldn't wake up no matter how I screamed." Mother, today is not our right, if you want to punish me, you will punish me, and my eldest sister is a drag on me. ”
He Lan stepped forward to check, and He Shuyun was indeed asleep in the car, and there was no response after screaming a few times.
He Xinmu and Qinghuan helped her and helped her to He Lanzhi's back.
