Tao Yao frowned lightly and glanced at her with a scrutinizing gaze.

Zhong Ling in front of him, and Fang Cai in the room, judged the two of them, as if Fang Cai had not thought about Lu Jiuyuan.

"Okay, sister-in-law?" Zhong Ling shook her arm, looking innocent.

Tao Yao paused, but without waiting for her to speak, Dong'er, who was following her today, had already stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhong, my wife is a little dizzy, I'm afraid I can't entertain you, Miss Zhong is also tired, it's better to stay in the guest house and rest." ”

Zhong Ling's brows furrowed, and he glanced at her, "The senior sister-in-law hasn't spoken yet, you can represent the master as a subordinate?" ”

Tao Yao glanced at her, brushed her hand away, and said lightly: "Miss Zhong, I am indeed a little dizzy, I really can't entertain you today, please take care of yourself." ”

When Dong'er heard this, she immediately held her hand.

Tao Yao didn't look at Zhong Ling again, and with Dong'er's support, he left the guest house.

Zhong Ling stood in place for a while, and after seeing the two of them out, the corners of his mouth twitched, "What's the big deal?" ”

Out of the guest house, Tao Yao gave Dong'er a thumbs up, "Very clever." ”

Dong'er smiled and couldn't help but remind: "But the slave maid looks at that girl Zhong, it's not a fuel-efficient lamp, I'm afraid she won't give up." ”

"Hmm." Tao Yao nodded, even Dong'er could see Zhong Ling's thoughts about Lu Jiuyuan.

However, she believes in Lu Jiuyuan's character, even if Zhong Ling has thoughts about Lu Jiuyuan, what can she do?

She wasn't worried.

Thinking of this, she was in a better mood again, and on the way back to Tingfangyuan, she and Dong'er went to the garden for a stroll.

Guest house.

The conversation between Lu Jiuyuan and Guo Daru has ended.

However, although he told Guo Daru about the situation of the emperor and Wan Jieyu, he still needed to discuss with the prince about entering the palace for diagnosis and treatment.

So after coming out of the guest house, he went to the palace.

Zhong Ling couldn't help but feel a little lost when he saw him coming and going in a hurry.

"Teacher, why did my brother leave again?" She asked as she entered the room.

"He's got something important to do." Guo Daru said.

"What did Senior Brother Fang Cai say to you?" Zhong Ling asked curiously.

Guo Daru gave her a burst, "Don't ask." ”

"Can't I even say that?" Zhong Ling frowned, a little dissatisfied.

Guo Daru said: "If you can say it, I will naturally tell you." ”

Seeing this, Zhong Ling closed his mouth.

She understands the teacher's temperament, don't look at him usually spoils her, but when it comes to important things, he is very measured, and he doesn't want to say what she doesn't want to say, no matter how she asks, he won't say it.

"I didn't expect my senior brother to be so good-looking." She digressed the subject, "I thought he was an old man." ”

"Nonsense, your senior brother is only thirty this year, how can he become an old man?" Guo Daru was displeased.

Zhong Ling said stupidly: "I haven't seen Senior Brother again, isn't this speculation?" ”

Guo Daru glanced at her and reminded: "Your senior brother has already married a wife, and your sister-in-law is also pregnant now, you should be calm and don't think anything crooked." ”

When Zhong Ling heard this, he said dissatisfiedly: "Why does the teacher say this about me? ”

"When you were relatively young, I picked you up and raised you to such a big age, what thoughts do you have in your heart, I won't be able to see it?" Guo Daru said with a serious face.

Hearing this, Zhong Ling simply said: "Senior brother is the dragon and phoenix among people, everyone will yearn for it, besides, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"

Even if I don't think about it, won't others move? Also, I don't believe that my senior brother will not take concubines all his life, but only guard his sister-in-law. ”

Guo Daru was so angry with her, "You really have a bad heart for your senior brother, it's really shameless." Three wives and four concubines? Could it be that you still want to be a concubine for him, do you want to be ashamed? ”

Zhong Ling was so crying by him, "I'll just talk about it casually, what are you doing so seriously?" Am I really willing to fall into the trap of being a concubine? The teacher is so annoying! With that, she ran out.

Seeing this, Guo Daru was anxious and angry, but he thought that he was not wrong, this girl just had thoughts about Jiuyuan that she shouldn't have.

But what he didn't expect was that after Zhong Ling ran out of the guest house, he went directly out of the Guogong Mansion.

When it was dark, Guo Daru went to find Zhong Ling for dinner, only to find that she was not in the house, so he immediately called someone to look for her.

It's a pity that I searched all over the mansion, but I didn't find Zhong Ling.

Tao Yao was in Tingfang Courtyard, and after learning the news, he had to rush to the guest house again.

"Sir, hasn't Miss Zhong come back yet?"

"Nope." Guo Daru shook his head.

"What's the matter, why did Miss Zhong run out all of a sudden?" Tao Yao was puzzled.

Guo Daru sighed and said: "That girl made me spoiled, she did something wrong, I counted her a few words, maybe I spoke too much, she couldn't accept it for a while." ”

When Tao Yao heard this, he vaguely understood something in his heart, looking at the old man's hair and beard, and the worry that could not be concealed between his eyebrows, he said with relief: "Don't worry too much, Sir, Miss Zhong is not a child anymore, and she will come back in a while." ”

"That girl came to the capital for the first time, and she is not familiar with the place...... Guo Daru frowned, not without worry.

"I'll send more people out to find it, and I'll definitely be able to get Miss Zhong back." Tao Yao said.

"I'm sorry for your trouble." Guo Daru was very ashamed.

"Sir, don't say such unpleasant things." Tao Yao shook his head.

However, she was about to send someone out to look for it, so Uncle Chen hurriedly walked in, "Miss Zhong is back." ”

"It's good to be back." Tao Yao nodded, looked at Guo Daru and said, "Sir, you can rest assured." ”

Guo Daru was indeed relieved, but scolded in his mouth: "What a stinky girl!" ”

Tao Yao was just about to ask Uncle Chen where the person was, when he saw Lu Jiuyuan walking in outside the door, and the person behind him was Zhong Ling.

Seeing this, Tao Yao was stunned, "Husband, did you come back with Miss Zhong?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "I ran into her halfway." ”

"You stinky girl, do you still know to come back?" Guo Daru scolded.

Zhong Ling flattened his mouth and did not speak.

When Guo Daru saw her like this, his heart softened, and he said: "Next time, don't be so ignorant, make everyone worry about you and look for you." ”

When Zhong Ling heard this, he immediately apologized to Tao Yao, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I've caused you trouble." ”

Tao Yao shook his head, "You don't have to apologize to me, I didn't do anything, but sir, I'm so worried about you, Miss Zhong is going out next time, but you must tell Mr. first." ”

Zhong Ling lowered his head, "Got it." Thinking of something, he looked at Lu Jiuyuan again, "Thank you Senior Brother this time, if I hadn't met Senior Brother, I might not have been able to come back." ”

When Guo Daru heard this, he looked at Lu Jiuyuan, "What's the matter?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan said truthfully: "On the way back, I met Miss Zhong who was bullied by the ruffians. ”
