Chapter 33: Kidnapping
"I was familiar with the name Gu Chong, and it turned out that our neighbors in Suzhou were good friends."
She didn't know that Qiao Yuan and Gu Zhong were embarrassed before, and there was only relief on her face.
"Gu Zhong heard that I was here, so I came to visit, but I have a heart."
Gu Chong's eyes were bright, as if he didn't have the slightest mustard, and nodded at Qiao Yuan.
Qiao Yuan had no choice but to return the salute.
Seeing that they were so unfamiliar, Qiao's mother was a little emotional.
"In the past, when you were young, you were as good as a person, and Ah Yuan was arguing all day long to play with Brother Gu. When we were recalled to Beijing, Qiao Yuan was still crying and reluctant to let you go? “
That was a long time ago.
Qiao Yuan bowed his head.
Qiao's mother has suffered a big change in her life recently, and her mood has also changed, and she has a lot of feelings, and she pulls them to talk for a while.
Gu Zhong did not show any impatience, and replied from time to time.
When the two of them came out of Qiao's mother's room, Qiao Yuan looked at Gu Zhong and didn't know what to say.
Gu Zhong hesitated: "I heard that the plum blossoms on the top of the mountain are blooming, do you want Sister Ayuan to go and see it?" “
Qiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and was about to say no.
Qiao's mother in the room walked out and said, "Let's go and see, it's not easy to meet friends when I was a child, and I haven't seen my handkerchief for a few years." ”
At the end, Qiao's mother had some tears on her face, and she couldn't help but feel sad.
Qiao Yuan had no choice but to accept it.
The temperature on the mountain is low, and a batch of early plums blooms.
Qiao Yuan walked among the glamorous but not delicate plum blossoms, his red lips exhaled white breath slightly, and his eyebrows and eyes were amazing, as if plum blossoms had become fine.
Gu Zhong saw that she was wearing a big hat, and quipped: "You are still so afraid of the cold." “
His tone was familiar.
Qiao Yuan looked up at him slightly.
Gu Zhong looked back calmly.
After Qiao's father went to Suzhou to be an official, he met a famous prostitute in Suzhou, that is, Qiao Jia's mother, and later Aunt Wei.
During that time, it was the most ridiculous time for Qiao's father.
He was obsessed with Aunt Wei's beauty, and bought a property outside, and even Qiao's mother and Qiao Yuan were put aside.
In the first winter in Suzhou, the money sent from Shangjing was still on the way, Qiao's family was not enough, Qiao's father's money was thrown into the outer room, and he didn't step into Qiao's mansion for ten days and half a month.
Qiao's mother gritted her teeth, and in order to ensure normal expenses, she asked her subordinates not to buy warm carbon fires.
Suzhou was wet and cold, and that winter, little Qiao Yuan barely got out of bed.
Her current fear of the cold was at that time.
Gu Zhong smiled: "Do you remember the first time we met?" “
It seems strange to ask, how can anyone remember the first meeting of a child.
Qiao Yuan blinked.
She does remember because she was impressed.
During a Shangsi Festival, Qiao Yuan followed Qiao's mother out of the city to step into the spring, and she fell into the river by herself.
There was no one around at the time, and Qiao Yuan still remembers the feeling of water flooding into his throat and nose.
In a feeling of suffocation, a teenager jumped into the river and rescued her.
Qiao Yuan looked at him seriously and said softly, "Remember, you saved me." “
If it weren't for this, she would have seen Gu Chong turn around and leave just now, where would she still talk like this.
Gu Zhong smiled slightly, tilted his head, and hid his expression.
No one knew that Qiao Yuan was not saved by him.
At that time, he saw a little girl lying wet by the river, and recognized that this was the daughter of Qiao's house.
The prominence of the Qiao family is known to everyone.
Although he is now being sent out to Suzhou, he knows that he will return to Beijing sooner or later.
The Gu family has been rooted in Suzhou for several generations, and they are worried that they have no connections in Shangjing.
Gu Zhong knew that the family was trying to catch up with Qiao's family.
He waited where he was for a while, but the rescuer still didn't come back.
Maybe he just saved it casually, and he didn't know how much value it would bring to saving the eldest lady of the Qiao family.
Gu Zhong heard little Qiao Yuan's muttering and opened his ignorant eyes.
Even though she almost died just now, her eyes were still innocent and clean, without a trace of shadow.
She innocently asked, "Big brother, did you save me?" “
Gu Zhong heard his own voice, "Yes." “
As a result, the Qiao family thanked Gu Zhong for saving his life, and the two mansions began to move around.
In the years that followed, the Gu family also successfully expanded its power by virtue of the Qiao family's relationship and entered a higher circle.
Qiao Yuan relies on Gu Zhong, her brothers and sisters are all in Beijing, and the only one who can play with her is this neighbor brother.
At that time, people in both prefectures joked that they were childhood sweethearts.
Gu Chong's expression was in a trance.
There was once a cute little girl in Yuxue who bit the sugar gourd he brought over in her mouth, and vaguely said that she would marry Brother Gu as his wife in the future.
The banquet of the total horn, smiling and smiling
Why did you make a promise and now abandon me?
A hint of madness flashed in Gu Chong's eyes.
……
Qi Cun was satisfied with the two overlapping figures on the paper, dried the ink, and put them in an envelope, ready to be sent to them tomorrow.
Maybe the previous letter was too subtle, and the daughter-in-law may not have understood what he meant.
This time it should be straightforward enough.
Brother Ting was held by the nurse, and he was still holding a rattle in his hand.
Qi Cun stretched out his hand to take his son, checked it, and found that it was heavy again.
The little cub pointed to the portrait in front of him and stumbled: "Mother......"
In the portrait, Qiao Yuan is half-lying on a soft couch, with his skirt swaying to the ground, his long hair is like a waterfall, and he has a hairpin on his head, and his delicate face is half-covered and half-hidden.
What a picture of a begonia sleeping in spring.
The hazy light veil seems to be tempting people to take a step closer, a little closer, and it is best to bring the beauty's soft and boneless body into her arms, so that her whole body is dyed with her own breath.
If Qiao Yuan is here, he will find this scene familiar.
There was a knock on the study door.
A letter was placed in front of Qi Cun.
It was already three o'clock, and Mrs. and Gu Zhong made an appointment with Merlin and returned at noon.
Qi Cun's face sank, snatched his son's rattle, and ignored the cub's dissatisfied protest.
"Son, do you want to be a mother?"
The little cub bit his finger: "Mother......"
"Okay."
Qi Cun's face did not ease at all, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows became deeper and deeper, "We'll go to my mother tomorrow." “
I don't know why, Qi Cun's heart was beating hard, as if something was out of control.
Qi Cun pondered for a moment, then opened his mouth and called out to the secret guard: "Someone." ”
A man silently crept in through the window.
"Look at that little girl."
Qi Cun faintly felt that Xiaoyu couldn't get out of it, and actually passed the information about Qiao Yuan's trip to Gu Zhong under his nose.
……
When Qiao Yuan opened his eyes, he felt that the top of his head was dangling, and his mind was a mess.
After a while, my consciousness became clearer, and I realized that it was not the top of my head, but the bottom of my body.
She's on a boat.
The ornaments are exquisite, and the brocade under her body is soft, and it is obvious that the person who robbed her is well prepared.
"You're awake."
Gu Zhong walked in with food.
It was as if nothing had happened, and Qingjun still had a gentle smile on his face.
Qiao Yuan sat up slowly, looking at his surroundings.
The temple is built on a mountain, and a river in the middle of the mountain leads to the bottom of the mountain, which is called the Jingsui River.
They should be on the still water river right now.
