As night falls, the ground in the courtyard is covered with snow-white "ground frost". Spring swallows are perched on the pear trees beside the courtyard. The frost and dew at night silently wet the begonias in the courtyard. It looks like the time has passed peacefully. , but the voice of Qi Qi Ai coming from time to time inevitably ruined the peaceful scene of the years, but no one dared to complain because of this, they only dared to guard the outside of the house cautiously, for fear that something was not done well enough, and accidentally, Here comes another one to add insult to injury...
Biyun shook his head and walked out of the house, and walked to Zang Lan. In his hand, he was holding the bird's nest porridge that Gu Ruosu was unwilling to touch and the plaster that Xie Ruqing had personally delivered, but that Gu Ruosu was unwilling to use.
"Sister Zanglan, what should we do? The madam seems very sad and even refuses to eat."
Zang Lan, who had always been steady, also sighed in embarrassment, turned around and said to Biyun: "Oh, our girl has been raised by the nobles since she was a child, and she was beaten by the lady when she was a naughty child at home. Several times.
Later, when I grew up, I had never experienced anything like this before. I was still looked at by several wives, grandchildren, and servants, and naturally I was very angry. "
"Why is the Duke like this... Hasn't he always claimed that he understands our wife best? Is it possible? I still don't know, our wife is a tough talker, so she saves face..." Biyun heard This, Zhi said with a frown.
"How could the Duke of Guo not know about it? I guess he just wanted to slap our wife and scare her. He didn't want to let these juniors know at all. I guess there is someone in our house. You are being smart...On the contrary, our wife will hold you against you for bringing the Duke into trouble."
"Huh, that's what the Duke deserves. Who wants the Duke to hit our wife's little hand?" Biyun said firmly to Gu Ruosu, but after saying that, he cautiously said to Zanglan:
"However, Sister Zanglan, I think what you said is very reasonable. Our Duke is not such a stupid person, but he has been implicated in the trouble and it is difficult to recover. What do you think...our wife and the Duke can do? Make peace...
Even if there is no reconciliation, is there any way to let our wife eat the food first and take the medicine? "
Zanglan thought for a moment and then said: "Our wife has the most stubborn temper, and things that she takes seriously often end up in trouble. I think if we want to reconcile, I guess the Duke will have to work hard." .
But you can rest assured that no one our wife has wronged will be wronged by herself. Right now, she is just so angry that she refuses to eat or take medicine. When we look back later, when the anger has subsided, she will naturally I won’t wrong myself anymore. "
When Biyun heard this, he felt that what Zanglan said was very reasonable. He nodded and praised Zanglan's intelligence, which made Zanglan blush in embarrassment.
"Okay, stop bragging. If you brag again, I will sew your mouth shut. You can put the porridge back in the kitchen first, and then go and prepare food at all times. I will tell you about the situation here. Tell the prince that the provincial prince is just like our wife and has not slept all night. If the government finds out, there will be an uproar."
"But, Sister Zanglan, you and I are on duty tonight. If we both leave, what will Madam do?"
"It's okay. Madam is just shutting herself in the room at the moment. She doesn't need anything for a while. Besides, there are still people in this outhouse. If Madam is really in need, she will definitely be able to solve it for her as soon as possible. You If you are really worried, you and I should go quickly so that we don’t delay things." Zanglan thought for a moment and said.
When Biyun heard this, he thought it made sense, and he and Zanglan soon went in two different directions. There was no one in front of the huge main house.
And at this moment, Gu Ruosu, who had been hiding behind the door and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people, carefully poked his head out and saw that there was really no one around. Then he was wearing a light gray riding outfit. , and slipped out without any jewelry.
A discerning person will know that Gu Ruosu is going to run away when he sees Gu Ruosu's appearance. But don't misunderstand. Gu Ruosu is not going to go outside the Duke of Yan's mansion. Let's not talk about it. The situation outside is indeed extremely dangerous. Let's just say The three floors of Duke Yan's mansion were so tightly guarded that not even a fly could fly in, and she couldn't escape at all.
However, if others have Zhang Liangji, she will naturally have her own bridge ladder.
Once the incident between her and Xie Ruqing came out, it could be big or small. The big one was the family rules and education of the entire Xie family. The small one was the quarrel between the husband and wife. That is, Xie Ruqing took care of her as a "little one". "child" thing.
But no matter which incident it was, the final outcome was for the couple to surrender to each other. But whether Xie Ruqing surrendered first or asked her to surrender first, to be honest, she couldn't accept it in her heart.
First of all, if Xie Ruqing surrendered first, it was because of Xie Ruqing's feelings for the original owner that Xie Ruqing took the initiative to surrender. But she was a fake and deserved it.
Secondly, if he wanted her to surrender first, she would naturally have to humbly ask Xie Ruqing for forgiveness, which she was originally willing to do. After all, who knew that it was really she who violated the agreement between him and Xie Ruqing?
But when she thought that the entire Xie family, about a hundred or so people, probably knew about her being slapped by Xie Ruqing, she really couldn't bear to face it...
Therefore, the best way is for her to run away before Zanglan can get Xie Ruqing back to her. How many days can she hide? Regardless of whether he can hide on the first day of the first year but not on the fifteenth day, at least, hide first. Let’s talk about it after New Year’s Day!
As for where to go, she had already thought of it for herself. Without leaving the house, she climbed over several walls, drilled through dog holes, and stayed in the yard of the third son of the Xie family, Rushi! Hee hee hee!
This is the safest choice. First of all, Ru's presence in the Xie family is already low. Even if Xie Ruqing finds out that she is missing, his first reaction should definitely be to go to Xie Haoan's Jufuzhai or Xie Haowen's house. Even the house of Xie Haoyuan and her second daughter-in-law who is very noisy, anyway, it will not be Ru's house, the safety index is ten stars!
Secondly, Mrs. Ru gives everyone the impression of a well-educated, courteous, gentle and homely lady. She is simply a typical representative of a good wife and mother in ancient times. Such a filial and virtuous person will definitely not give her the name The mother-in-law who went to bed turned away the door and let it go hahahaha!
In addition, the two children of the Ru family secretly sent her delicious preserves two days ago. Moreover, she also heard that the two children of the Ru family also made some exquisite food. The little mechanism bird is so fun, just a good change of mood! Kill two birds with one stone!
The more Gu Ruosu thought about it, the more she felt that she was too smart. She quietly closed the door of her room and quietly retreated to the wall behind her room.
After digging through the small grass behind his house, a dog hole that was small but big enough for an adult woman to pass through appeared in front of Gu Ruosu. This was a good place that Gu Ruosu discovered a month ago. She originally thought that she could go back and wait for summer. , put some ice cubes around and in the dog hole for cooling purposes, so I didn’t ask anyone to fill them in. Unexpectedly, the temperature hasn’t dropped yet, and I’m using it now~
Gu Ruosu didn't mind that it was a dog hole at all. Instead, she squatted down very neatly and got out of the dog hole directly.
Gu Ruosu patted the dust on his body and looked back at his room, which was still brightly lit. Then he took out the simple map of Duke Yan's Mansion that he had drawn from his arms, and then drew it for a long time. Standing in front of a wall, he took out a bundle of ropes from his sleeves. Relying on his mountain climbing experience in his previous life, he skillfully tied a knot and threw it over the corner of the eaves. After confirming the safety of the rope, he I started my humming journey of climbing the wall~
I don’t know why, but after Gu Ruosu climbed three walls, she never encountered the patrolling guards or the night patrol maids and servants. However, Gu Ruosu didn’t realize that something was wrong here at the moment, but when Gu Ruosu climbed up After the fifth wall, Gu Ruosu finally realized something was wrong...
It stands to reason that even if Gu Ruosu chose a remote road that is the most inaccessible, she clearly remembered that in the Duke of Yan's mansion, even in a remote place, there would be guards and night watchers at scheduled times every night. Servants passed by, and she climbed all five walls, but didn't see anyone. It was a little too weird...
Thinking of this, Gu Ruosu couldn't help but sit on the wall and shuddered.
Gu Ruosu swallowed her saliva and looked around carefully. She did not see anyone suspicious, but she also did not see anyone belonging to the Duke of Yan's mansion. The surroundings were quiet at the moment, and she could only hear. , the sound of the night wind whistling.
Gu Ruosu didn't have the courage to stay and continue to find out what was going on. She just felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time.
What's more, according to her map, as long as she climbs three more walls, she can reach the back door of Ru's courtyard. Once there, she will be safe!
Gu Ruosu rested for a moment, then immediately prepared to climb down the wall and continue on her way, but perhaps she was too eager. As she was climbing down, she accidentally slipped on her soles and was about to fall down!
Gu Ruosu shouted, subconsciously protecting her head, closing her eyes, and preparing to accept the warm greetings from the floor.
But the expected pain did not come. Instead, Gu Ruosu felt that she had fallen into a very warm embrace.
"Gu Gu, be careful." A strange but familiar male voice sounded from Gu Ruosu's ears. Gu Ruosu opened her eyes in surprise, and what came into view was Gao Qi's handsome face with a bohemian smile.
But Gu Ruosu didn't let go of any nymphomaniacs at this moment. Instead, her eyes were filled with tears for the first time. Then, she shouted as if she missed him very much: "Gao Gao, you are here too!"
Gu Ruosu refers to Gao Gao as her best friend in her last life. Gao Qu was her good brother who played in mud with her since childhood, went to school with her, took exams together, went to amusement parks and played games with her.
The two have been family friends since their grandparents' generation. Their parents are both well-known intellectuals, and they are good neighbors living in a unit building. She and Gao Qu have been together since childhood. Although good friends who play together do not secrete any different dopamine for each other like other childhood sweethearts, Gu Ruosu and Gao Qu have a friendship similar to that of a red-haired girl and a bearded man.
Once, Gu Ruosu said with absolute certainty in front of everyone that if she died, then, apart from her parents, the second most sad person in the world would definitely be Gao Qu...
But what she said back then was just a joke by Gu Ruosu. Unexpectedly, one day the words would come true. Gu Ruosu had been thinking about it for a long time. Even if she died, she would not know her parents in that world. How's it going with Gao Qu?
Can they get out of the shadow of her death...
Therefore, when Gao Qi's face exactly like Gao Qu's appeared in front of Gu Ruosu, Gu Ruosu could no longer hold back, her eyes turned red, and she threw herself into Gao Qi's arms and called him "Gao Gao".
And all this fell into Gao Qi's eyes, and he felt extremely sorry for Gu Ruosu. That bastard boy Xie Ruqing was so useless that he dared to touch his baby Gu Gu with a finger and said something about a loving couple. He looked at it. It is not important to establish his authority as a patriarch.
Gao Qi was obviously carried away at this moment and had completely forgotten that he knew the cause and effect of this incident, and that Xie Ruqing had also greeted him at the beginning...
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here, I'm here, no one wants to bully you." Gao Qi patted Gu Ruosu's back and coaxed softly.
Gu Ruosu cried and nestled in Gao Qi's arms without saying a word. She just let Gao Qi coax her. She didn't know whether it was because she was aggrieved or because she missed "Gao Qu" too much.
Gao Qi's sudden arrival naturally disrupted Gu Ruosu's plan to defect to the Ru family. Gao Qi quietly took him away from the Duke of Yan's mansion and placed him in a house on the outskirts of his city. I accidentally "forgot" to notify Xie Ruqing...
Therefore, after Xie Ruqing searched the entire Duke of Yan's residence and failed to find Gu Ruosu, Xie Ruqing's face suddenly turned dark, and she was even more flustered. He knew best how many abilities his own daughter-in-law had. The courtyard can be used, but it is absolutely impossible to dig out the heavily guarded Duke of Yan's mansion...
Therefore, Gu Ruosu definitely did not leave the Duke of Yan's Mansion alone... There must be... someone was secretly helping Gu Ruosu, it could even be said that they were secretly taking Gu Ruosu away...
But who is it... If you have the ability, please reach out to Xie Ruqing's home...
Just when Xie Ruqing thought of this, there was the sound of an ice-cracked cup in Xie Ruqing's hand cracking...
