"What?" The mother shouted loudly, and then lost consciousness and hurriedly covered her mouth: "There is still this matter?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Aunt Yang nodded, and continued to whisper: "I heard that every day after school, he goes to the haunted reeds of the Rouge River to wander around, someone has already seen it, it seems that he is still alone, I don't know what to say, sometimes, I don't go home when it's dark, my little third son also said that Mr. always yawns in class!" Aren't you fascinated by foxes? ”

The mother said in a low voice: "Then what about Old Lady Gu?" ”

Aunt Yang shook her head: "Mrs. Gu happened to go to live at the rich second daughter's house recently, but I don't know yet!" Speaking of which, these two daughters have helped their mother's family! But if you live your own life, you can't carry your mother's family like a snail! The second son-in-law is also affectionate and righteous, and he has said goodbye to Gu Sheng, but none of them succeeded, and his heart is cold. ”

The mother nodded and said, "Yes, this fox is obsessed with such a Gu Sheng, what a sin!" ”

Mother and Aunt Yang continued to tell some side anecdotes, but I couldn't listen to them, and thought, could it be that the young lady Gu Sheng took a fancy to was not the sister of Yanyu Pavilion, but the female ghost who was looking for a stand-in as Xiao Sanzi said? Or is it really a fox?

I went to deliver supper at night and came back around the Rouge River trail, and sure enough, I saw that Gu Sheng was still waiting in the place where he fell asleep last time, I hurriedly approached to say hello, Gu Sheng still remembered me, nodded with a smile, and roughly heard that people who were fascinated by ghost foxes were not all pale and haggard, and were they fascinated? I don't want to be stiff, my eyes are blazing, my face is ruddy, but I am more energetic than a few days ago.

I was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, have you been here every night these days?" ”

Gu Sheng nodded: "I have an appointment with someone, so I came to wait." ”

I was even more puzzled, and asked, "Who does the gentleman have an appointment with?" ”

Gu Sheng smiled shyly: "I won't tell you, it's the young lady who was swinging in the reeds on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I waited every day, I didn't want to really meet her, so I exchanged names, became confidants, and made an appointment to meet at the ugly time, my mother is not at home, and I am the same at home, so I will wait first." ”

This is strange, if it is the sister of the Yanyu Pavilion, no matter how light the business is, it is also a time to entertain guests when it is ugly, and she must not go out to play.

I hurriedly asked, "Sir's young lady, is it someone from the Smoke and Rain Pavilion?" ”

Gu Sheng nodded: "Although she is a Qinglou woman, she has a unique style, and she is not a lover of money." A slight smile appeared on his face, as if he had a sweet memory.

I asked again: "Mei Cai is familiar with those girls, but I don't know which sister?" ”

Gu Sheng frowned and said: "She is very ashamed of her identity, although she has a friendship, she has never told me her name." ”

I wondered in my heart, which sister is it?

Thinking that the third son said that this place would be haunted when it was ugly, he asked Gu Sheng again: "Sir, there is an unlucky legend here when it is ugly!" Isn't you afraid, sir? ”

Gu Sheng laughed loudly: "Zi Bu is strange and confused, how can there be so many gods and ghosts in the world, and besides, Yi people are on the side, even if there are ghosts?" Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. ”

"Then the gentleman has come to see you every time in the past few days, but what's unusual?" I asked.

Gu Sheng thought for a while and said, "No."

I asked again, "When the young lady came, the light was blind, how do you know that she is the young lady?"

Gu Sheng said with a smile: "Miss came with a maid carrying a green lantern, otherwise it will be dark and the road will be slippery, how can Miss's three-inch golden lotus be endured?"

Although I'm not big, I have never heard the legend of the ghost fox, no matter how I hear it, it looks like the legendary fox fairy! It's strange that those people rumored that Gu Sheng was fascinated by the fox, which really made some sense.

But seeing him like this, he may not listen to persuasion, I hope that there is really such a young lady, and it is good to say that my sister has come to make friends with him.

In the next few days, there were more and more rumors about Gu Sheng, and some people said that the fox had been attached to him, but I didn't know anything else, but occasionally I walked that road, and I could always see him waiting stupidly.

On this day, I went to the street to buy dates, and I happened to see Aunt Yang carrying a basket to bargain for eggs, I was busy stepping forward to salute, and Aunt Yang was so happy that she held my face and smiled: "No need, or we know the most etiquette in plum vegetables." Bian asked in a low voice: "In the past few days and nights to deliver food, can you walk the road by the Rouge River?"

I shook my head and said I hadn't left.

Aunt Yang hurriedly said: "That's right, Aunt Yang told you, don't take that road, that road is haunted, it's not Aunt Yang who scares you, but there are charming foxes!"

I asked, "Do you mean Mr. Gu?"

Aunt Yang hurriedly clapped her hands and said, "So you also heard about it!" Exactly! Now that Gu Sheng has been fascinated by the fox, his second sister knows, and is busy sending his mother, Mrs. Gu, to take care of him, not teaching him to go out to wander at night, Gu Sheng is filial, Mrs. Gu is sobbing, he doesn't dare to go again, but his face is getting thinner and thinner day by day, my little third son also said that Mr. is in a trance all day long, and the book is also taught, and several children don't teach their children to study with him. You say it's not pitiful, if he has three long and two short, his old mother will really cry to death! ”

Listening to Aunt Yang's words, probably Gu Shengzi really made a mess for that girl, but between men and women, don't they all say anything about life and death? I don't know what the hell is going on with that girl?

When I came out of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion at night, it was very cool, and I walked humming a song, but in the darkness a hand on my shoulder, which shocked me.

Looking back, it turned out to be Gu Sheng!

I saw that his eye sockets were deep-set, his face was even more pale in the moonlight, although he was still wearing the old cyan gown, but he also became loose, but he didn't see him for a few days, and he became like this, could it be that his young lady was really a monster, and he was like this?

I hurriedly asked, "Mr. Gu, what's wrong with you?" How did you get like this?"

Gu Sheng smiled sadly: "I don't see you every day, that's what it looks like."

I don't understand, but I can't get rid of that girl.

Gu Sheng took it out of his arms with his skinny hand, took out a letter, and said, "The girl goes in and out of the Yanyu Pavilion every day, can you help me bring this letter to my confidant?"

Well? Isn't it really a monster, just a sister?

I hurriedly said, "Naturally, dare to ask that girl's name?"

Gu Sheng shook his head weakly: "That day in a hurry, my mother came home, and she didn't let me go out to see each other, my husband promised a thousand dollars, but I couldn't go to the appointment, I was just afraid that she would mistakenly think that I was treacherous, so I had to leave a letter to make my mind clear, but unfortunately I didn't ask her name, only listened to her call her maid before."

There is a maid named Rong Rong in the Smoke and Rain Pavilion? How did I not know? Is it afraid of revealing his whereabouts and calling a fake name? Or is it that maid and girl, who are not from Yanyu Pavilion in the first place?

I promised to help him find it, and Gu Sheng thanked him for it.

To whom will this letter be delivered? It's better to ask Mr. Mo.

The next day, I went to the Yanyu Pavilion to ask Mr. Mo about Rong Rong, and Mr. Mo shook his head and said that he didn't know.

Who are these young ladies and maids, and why did they deceive Gu Sheng in the name of their sisters? Is it really a fox?

Taking a step back, it's not a fox, it's not a monster, but a girl from an ordinary family, why should she come out to see each other when she is ugly? It's full of unusual places, and now where is this letter delivered?

Yanyu Pavilion sometimes has a letter from the entruster, it is inconvenient during the day, there is an unwritten rule for a long time, it will always be put in a bamboo basket in the Huang Bo's room, every day there are literate maids to come to see if there is a love letter from their own girl, I will also look at the letter with the words "Miss Pu Jia personally opened", I thought in my heart, it is better to try my luck here. Huang Bo is here every day, and he can't lose it.

After delivering supper in the evening, I stopped by Huang Bo to take a look, I didn't want to have a pale green envelope, which was particularly eye-catching in the basket.

I picked it up and saw that it was indeed "Gu Sheng's own enlightenment", I couldn't help but be surprised and happy, isn't it a sister with a pseudonym! Where did the fox come from? I happily took it home, and saw that the lights of the little third son's house were still on, and the courtyard door was not closed, so I quickly knocked on the inner door so as not to send the little third son to school early on the second day.

Aunt Yang opened the door, saw that it was me, and asked with a smile: "But did you just finish delivering supper?" ”

I hurriedly said: "Yes, there is a trust for my third brother to give away, I wonder if he sleeps?" ”

Aunt Yang said: "No! I'm still studying, and I've grown a lot in the past few days. And he led me upstairs.

The little third son was lying on the desk reading a book with a soybean oil lamp, and when he saw that it was me, he couldn't help but smile and said, "How did my sister come to be?" It's so late, I'm afraid I'm afraid that I'm afraid halfway through, and I beg the third brother to send you? ”

I smiled and said, "Mei Cai's guts are so small, the third brother will go to school tomorrow, and hand over this letter to Mr. Gu!" ”

So he took out the letter.

Xiao Sanzi hurriedly took it and said with a smile: "But that Yiren? ”

I laughed: "The third brother is a smart man. ”

The third son was triumphant: "Look at the fact that you sent it, it must be the sister of Yanyu Pavilion, everyone is talking about it and saying that it is a fox, it is not ridiculous." ”

I hurriedly said: "But isn't it, then there is the third brother Lao." So he quit Aunt Yang's family and went home.

I didn't want to do it the next day, but the third son returned the letter to me with a sad face.

I hurriedly asked what was wrong.

The little third son sighed and said, "You don't know, sir。。。。。 Lost, gone. ”

"What?" What a big living person, lost?

Xiao Sanzi nodded: "It's true, when I arrived at the school today, Mr. hasn't come yet, I waited for an hour, and someone from the Gu family said that Mr. Gu left home by himself and never came back!"

I was taken aback, that Gu Sheng, didn't you go to the Yanyu Pavilion to find that Miss Pujia?

With full of suspicions, I went to Uncle Huang first, Uncle Huang was closing his eyes to recuperate, I stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Uncle Huang, which maid came to get the letter yesterday?"

Huang Bo tightened impatiently, half-opened one eye and said, "There were so many people who came yesterday, how do I know which ones?"

I came out with a pout, thinking, it seems that Huang Bo can't ask anything here.

was coming out, but I saw Luan'er running over with her little feet struggling, so I hurriedly called her: "Sister Luan'er, where are you going in this hurry?"
