Chapter Eighty-Nine: Qunfang Building
It was night, and there was a sudden light snowfall.
Cheng Yi waited outside Gu Wanning's door all night, and when Gu Wanning went out the next day, he found Cheng Yi squatting on the side.
"Master Cheng?" Gu Wanning said in surprise, "Why are you here?" ”
Cheng Yi hurriedly got up and patted the snow on his body.
"I came to look for you yesterday, but it happened that the regent was inside, and it was inconvenient for me to go in, so I waited outside for a while, and accidentally fell asleep."
Cheng Yi has always been a strict person, and it seems that it is impossible to fall asleep suddenly outside the door of others.
In fact, he tossed and turned yesterday, restless, and always felt that he would miss something forever when he left, so he sat here in a daze, and sat all night.
Cheng Yi asked again, "When did the regent leave?" ”
Gu Wanning invited Cheng Yi in, and asked Zhang's mother to help make some ginger tea, and said, "It was just a little dark last night, and the prince left." ”
With just this sentence, Cheng Yi knew that he was tricked by the regent.
He was holding ginger tea, a little helpless.
"Is Aning familiar with the regent?" Cheng Yi felt like a hundred claws scratching his heart, and asked very uneasily, "I grew up with you since I was a child, but I don't know when you met the regent. ”
Gu Wanning then said: "I only found out last night, it turns out that I met the regent six years ago. ”
"Well, you also recognize it, do you remember the little beggar I picked up six years ago?"
Cheng Yi had a touch of loneliness on his face, "That little beggar, I remember." ”
The young Gu Wanning often picked up some cats and dogs outside and returned home, and suddenly once, she actually picked up a person.
She was originally very enthusiastic, and when she saw that little beggar was pitiful, she spent a lot of thought on him.
Even then, she didn't have much time to spare.
But Cheng Yi knew that she was kind-hearted, but she didn't take it to heart at that time, and she never thought that the little beggar would have such a fate with A-Ning.
"Does A-Ning like the Regent very much?" Cheng Yi smiled reluctantly.
Gu Wanning tilted her head and thought for a while, "The regent is an excellent person. ”
Cheng Yi nodded, "I also think that the regent is an excellent person, A-Ning, what about me." ”
Gu Wanning obviously didn't expect Cheng Yi to ask like this, she was stunned for a moment, "Of course Master Cheng is also a very good person. ”
"Since I don't have anything wrong, then why did I come back this time, you and I are so estranged, you actually call me 'Master Cheng', Ah Ning, are our previous friendships just 'Lord Cheng'?"
Gu Wanning was stunned by the question, and she subconsciously denied: "Of course not." ”
I just thought that last night the regent said that he would be jealous if he called "Brother Cheng Yi", so he changed his words.
But I never thought that Cheng Yi would mind this.
"Cheng Yi," Gu Wanning explained helplessly: "You left Yingchuan for five years, and in these five years, I will marry and have a daughter. ”
"For me, getting married is a watershed, and after that, it is naturally impossible for me and you to return to the time when we were so close."
"But I remember you, we grew up together, you are no different from the third brother in my heart, it's just a title, if you don't like it, I won't call it."
She's still as empathetic as ever.
This explanation makes people can't find anything wrong, but Cheng Yi just doesn't feel very comfortable in his heart.
It's changed.
"Aning, I don't blame you." He has always had a good temperament, and even if he is sad, he will not show it.
After a while, she woke up softly, walked out in a daze, and saw a stranger beside her mother, and glanced at Cheng Yi very curiously.
Cheng Yi's heart skipped a beat, "This is your daughter, exactly the same as when you were a child." ”
Gu Wanning nodded, and beckoned to Softsoft, "Soft, this is your Uncle Cheng, a good friend of your mother." ”
When she saw Cheng Yi for the first time, she was a little scared, walked up to her mother, and called out timidly, "Uncle Cheng." ”
"Hey." Cheng Yi responded, he looked at Su Ruansoft, as if looking at Gu Wanning in the past.
He felt that the child was really a very magical thing, and he seemed to be able to see Gu Wanning's shadow from the soft body, and his heart was sour.
If he could turn back time, he would like to go back to his youth.
Childhood sweethearts, two little guesses, carefree.
Cheng Yi beckoned to Soft, Softly hesitated, but walked up to Cheng Yi.
"What's your name?" Cheng Yi asked.
Soft said: "My name is 'Gu Soft', and Uncle Cheng calls me 'Soft'." ”
More than a month ago, Gu Wanning asked her daughter to follow her surname "Gu".
and her mother have a surname, the little girl is very happy, and when she meets people, she says that she has changed her name, called "Gu Ruansoft".
"Squish, you're so cute, well, as cute as your mother when she was a child." Cheng Yi took out a small jade bell from his arms and shook it towards the softness, making a crisp sound.
"Do you like it?" Cheng Yi asked.
Squishy nodded.
Cheng Yi then tied the small bell around his soft waist, and made an uninterrupted sound as the soft walked away.
Squishy felt very magical and walked several steps around the house.
"That way, your mother can easily find you." Cheng Yi said.
When she heard this, she was very happy, and looked up at her mother, "I also want my mother to tie a bell, so that I can find my mother at any time." ”
Gu Wanning softened, "Well, I'll ask someone to make a bell in a while, and I'll tie it too." ”
Seeing that the mother and daughter were very happy, Cheng Yi felt much more comfortable.
Cheng Yi was not an idle person after all, but after staying for a while, he went to the yamen.
After Gu Wanning had breakfast that day, Qiu He, the maidservant next to Miss Gu Wu, suddenly hurriedly came over.
Qiu He looked like she was about to cry, "Lady, save the five girls in my family." ”
Gu Wanning hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Xi'er, you say it slowly." ”
Qiuhe said: "My girl was kidnapped last night, and the man asked me to find you, saying that you should go to a place alone, if you don't go, he will kill the five girls." ”
From Qiu He's words, Gu Wanning knew that this person was coming for him.
She didn't make many enemies in Yingchuan, most of the Su family were dead, and even if they weren't dead, they were just fledgling kids, so where could they have the ability to sneak into the Su family and take people away quietly.
This person is only afraid of being unusual, if she is alone, I am afraid that if people are not rescued, they will catch themselves.
She felt that this was unusual, and subconsciously wanted to report to the official.
Qiu He said: "That man said that he will keep watching you in the dark, and if he finds that you want to report to the official, or tell your family about it, he will immediately tear up the ticket." ”
Well, the road is blocked.
Gu Wanning then asked, "Then where does this person want me to go?" ”
Qiu He said: "He asked you to walk to Qunfang Building." ”
