Chapter 24: Wake Up Your Mind
Gu Chonglou listened to Gu's arrangement--
Before midnight tonight, hide in the west garden of Tao Mansion.
As soon as the time comes, Tao Jiang will pass through here. At that time, Gu Chonglou only needs to rush out and pull Tao Jiang, and take advantage of the chaos to tear off her sachet or silk handkerchief.
The Gu family will take everyone down from the sky and give Tao Jiang a private accusation - once this rumor spreads, Tao Jiang will have no other choice but to marry Gu Chonglou.
Gu Chonglou, who was haunted by Tao Jiang's dreams and couldn't sleep at night, also felt that this plan was very good!
So, as soon as it was dark, he sneaked into the door of the Tao family with the little girl in the second room, and then hid in the rockery in the west garden.
He has to do something big today, so Gu Chonglou is uneasy in his heart, and he hasn't had the heart to eat a few mouthfuls of soup and rice until now.
Thinking that he could finally meet Tao Jiang's cousin, Gu Chonglou also specially wore a light and elegant crow blue dark pattern pancy pattern robe.
The wind is there, and the freedom is also there, but now that it has entered the third winter, the sky is dark and the cold wind is crossing, blowing Gu Chonglou shivering, and he can't wait to get himself together.
Why didn't you add a big hat to yourself before you went out?
Even a wool cloak is good!
As soon as a person is cold, the hunger will double - Gu Chonglou, who has not eaten all day, has a rumbling stomach at this time, and occasionally his feet are numb and he feels like the world is spinning when he stands up.
In addition, he is now in this eerie and terrifying west garden, and his eyes are full of rockeries or vines, and even the road under his feet is made into a strange water ripple shape, and he can be scared enough if he accidentally lowers his head.
Gu Chonglou cursed Tao Yongjin for not reading a few books and still wanted to learn the tone of a literati, while thinking that in the future, if he married Tao Jiang and seized the Tao family's property, he would definitely push the rockery, tear the vines, and smash all the water rippled floor tiles......
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard a light footsteps in front of him, Gu Chonglou estimated that the time was almost up, and the person who came must be his cousin Tao Jiang, who was thinking about it for a long time, so he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and rushed forward with all his strength:
"Cousin ......"
The sentence "I miss my cousin" was still echoing in the sky above the West Garden, and Gu Chonglou felt a strong blow on his head, and then saw Cousin Tao Jiang, who was close at hand, said with a cold face:
"Where did the little thief come from, he dared to hide in my Tao Mansion and beat me to death!"
Then, a sack fell from the sky, and as soon as Gu Chonglou's eyes were dark, countless punches and kicks hit him.
Tao Jiang knew that the Gu family must have set a trap for herself today, but she didn't expect that she would send her precious nephew to Tao Jiang.
Tao Jiang was very satisfied with Gu's "big gift", so she simply calculated it, and the moment she heard Gu Chonglou's voice, she pressed the charge of "Mao thief" on his head.
The maids behind them didn't see clearly who the person was, but they only heard the eldest lady exclaim, and saw the thief rushing towards the eldest lady with his arms open, wanting to do something indecent, so they immediately greeted him with a stick.
The mothers-in-law took advantage of the night to tie Gu Chonglou in the sack, only to see him burrowing around like maggots, muttering from time to time in the sack:
"I'm a cousin...... Gu, Gu ......"
The mother-in-law was about to become suspicious, but she saw that Citrus kicked at the sack and scolded:
"What Gu, deliberately, right? Deliberately ramming my young lady! ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, she hurriedly made up for it a few times, and the sack was settled.
"Miss, what are we going to do with the people in the sack? Is it to send the official or to be locked up in the firewood room first? ”
As soon as Tao Jiang was about to answer, he saw the lights in the direction of the second room gradually brightening, and a group of people were walking in the direction of the West Garden with great fanfare.
The second aunt is just right at this time!
Tao Jiang was not soft-hearted, and said to his mother-in-law with a cold face:
"Throw me into the pool of wealth, let him wake up his mind!"
"Poof!"
There were countless splashes in the calm and waveless pool, and before the ripples could dissipate, he saw Tao Luo rushing in front of him in a rage:
"Tao Jiang, where's my cousin?"
"Luo'er, stop me!"
Before Tao Jiang could speak, the Gu clan, who came later, quickly stopped Tao Luo.
Tonight's West Garden, Gu Xiaomei was originally not going to let Tao Luo know.
Although her daughter is not dull, she has not spent much of her mind on Gu Chonglou.
Tao Luo originally just felt that his cousin was amorous and a little more handsome than other men, but as soon as he saw Tao Jiang and Gu Chonglou together, he wanted to take him for himself.
For this matter, Gu Xiaomei didn't know how many times she had quarreled with Tao Luo--
Xiaozhi talked about the overall situation of the Gu family with reason, and said that it was powerful with emotion, but Tao Luo just didn't listen to it, and anything related to Gu Chonglou could make her lose her character.
For example, a few days ago, the Gu family asked the little guy to deliver a message to the Gu family, and Tao Luo intercepted the little guy halfway and set out all the layouts.
Knowing that his mother was going to marry Tao Jiang into the Gu family, Tao Luo couldn't wait to smash anything he could smash.
was finally persuaded by the Gu family, and he must follow her to the West Garden tonight, saying that he couldn't let Gu Chonglou suffer the slightest grievance.
As a result, when he arrived here, he didn't know what the situation was, Tao Luo opened his mouth and asked where Gu Chonglou was.
Gu Xiaomei raised his eyes and looked, only to see Tao Jiang's layers of smiles not reaching the bottom of his eyes, and he dragged out his voice and joked:
"Cousin? Fourth sister, why did you look for your cousin in this West Garden in the middle of the night? ”
Tao Luo also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he could only turn his eyes to Gu Xiaomei for help.
Gu stepped forward, although there was a look of reproach on his face, he still dragged Tao Luo behind him without a trace, and opened the topic and said:
"It's Luo'er, what are you doing in this West Garden so late?"
Gu Shi swept around the maid behind Tao Luo, and saw that everyone was panting, as if they had just done something big, and looked around but didn't see Gu Chonglou's figure, and couldn't help but panic in their hearts.
Tao Jiang was not in a hurry, but stared at the Jucai Pond with faint eyes - the water in the pool was calm again, and even the last splash disappeared into the night, Tao Jiang then spoke:
"Recently, there are always wild cats calling spring in the West Garden, which disturbs my mother's night. Just now, the cat barked heartbreakingly, and I couldn't bear it, so I took my mother-in-law out to hunt wild cats. Who knows......"
Tao Jiang looked like he was showing, and deliberately didn't say anything more.
"Who knows? You mean! "The first to lose his breath was Tauro.
"Who knew that the wild cat didn't catch it, but it ran into a small thief, the cat was behind the rockery, and it was estimated that he was going to wait for everyone to sleep out and steal some money......"
Before Tao Jiang finished speaking, Tao Luo rushed to her like crazy and said viciously:
"What about the little thief? Where are the little thieves! ”
On one side was the angry Tao Luo, and on the other side was the Gu family who pretended to be calm, Tao Jiang only felt a big piece in his heart, and only after a while pointed to the lifeless Ju Cai Tan and said:
"Oh, I threw it into the pool!"
