Mrs. Liu introduced the people with a sad expression, and several colleagues were startled when they saw Gu Yuheng.

I haven't seen him for a few days, Gu Yuheng seems to have sunken cheeks, yellow eyes, and yellow face.

Gu Yuheng lay on the bed and said weakly: "The doctor said that I can't work hard because of my illness, and I have to recuperate for a few years." ”

"I plan to resign from this official position and go back to my hometown to recuperate."

It's hard for everyone to say anything, after all, Gu Yuheng is very sick at first glance, and no matter how important he is as an official, his life is not important.

Everyone comforted them, left some tonic gifts, and left.

After a few more days, Gu Yuheng really submitted his resignation, and the boss had already heard about Gu Yuheng's situation, and felt sorry for it, so he approved Gu Yuheng's resignation and asked people to send the resignation to the ministry.

The resignation of a small member of the Wupin Ministry of Labor did not make much of a splash.

Gu Yuheng also sent letters to a few people in the same year, informing him of his return to his hometown.

Mrs. Liu stepped up to sell the house and sent everyone away.

Early this morning, two carriages came out of Huaihua Lane, and soon arrived at Shili Pavilion after leaving the city gate.

Today happened to be resting, and Gu Yuheng's several years of the same year, he made an appointment to send him off, and prepared drinks in Shili Pavilion to wait for Gu Yuheng.

The carriage slowly stopped after passing the pavilion, and Mrs. Liu got down from the carriage and said to everyone deeply, "Thank you for coming to see you off, but my husband is seriously ill and can't even get up to say goodbye to you." ”

Mrs. Liu lifted the curtain of the car as she spoke, and everyone looked in from the window, Gu Yuheng's face was yellow and thin, and he was lying in the car and nodded slightly at them.

Everyone sighed, looking at Gu Yuheng's appearance, they couldn't even drink a glass of wine to see them off.

One of the same year asked: "Brother Gu is so sick, is it okay to go on the road like this?" ”

Mrs. Liu replied respectfully: "I asked the doctor, and said that although this disease looks serious, it is not hindered in life, as long as you take medicine well and recuperate for two or three years, you will be fine." ”

The same year nodded, "That's good." ”

"Wait for two or three years, if Brother Chen wants to recover again, if we can help, we will definitely help."

Mrs. Liu was deeply blessed, and Gu Yuheng in the carriage also cheered up and thanked her.

Everyone asked Gu Yuheng at the window to say a few words and waved goodbye.

The carriage was back on the road.

There were only four people in the two carriages, one with Mrs. Liu and Gu Yuheng in it, and the other with Mrs. Liu's personal maid and her son.

This maid has followed Mrs. Liu since she was a child and has been loyal to her, because Mrs. Liu has sold her to no one.

The official road where the carriage walked, and the people and cars came and went along the way.

By the next day, there were fewer people and cars on the official road than near the capital.

On this day, due to Gu Yuheng's illness, the decoction at noon was delayed for some time, and it was dark before he arrived at the inn.

Both coachmen were a little anxious, and only wanted to hurry to the inn, they were used to this road, and they knew in their hearts where to rest.

Moreover, even on the official road, there are no lights at night, and it is not safe to be dark.

A coachman was mentally calculating how far he was from the inn, when he suddenly noticed a horse-drawn carriage not far in front of him blocking the way in the middle of the road.

Fortunately, there was a lantern hanging on the carriage, otherwise it would have almost crashed.

Two carriages had to stop.

The two coachmen are experienced, and at this time they began to beat drums in their hearts, and the carriage didn't look like it was broken, so it could be that someone wanted to block the road and rob it.
