Du Fuling and Xu Yunchan didn't return for a day, and Sheng Guoer became a little worried.
Sheng Guoer sent someone to find Du Fuling. When his subordinates came back, they told him that Du Fuling had gone to Gaofu and never came out, and that Xu Yunchan had also gone.
"Oops, is it being detained by the Gao Mansion?"
Sheng Guoer frowned and became a little nervous. At this moment, the little koi carp suddenly appeared again. In front of Sheng Guoer, he dipped its tail in water and drew a portrait of a woman on the table. Then, Then disappeared.
Sheng Guoer looked at the portrait painted with water and felt very puzzled.
"Xingzhou!" Guoer called Meng Xingzhou.
"What's wrong, Guo'er?" Meng Xingzhou asked, "What happened?"
Sheng Guoer said: "Du Fuling and Xu Yunchan were detained in Gaofu. When I was at a loss what to do, suddenly the little koi appeared and drew me this portrait of a woman. Can you copy it?"
Meng Xingzhou looked at it carefully, nodded, and said loudly: "Yan Zhi, get the pen and ink!"
Yan Zhi hurriedly got pen, ink, paper and inkstone. After laying them out, Meng Xingzhou splashed ink and drew a portrait of the woman on the table.
When the portrait of this young woman was clearly presented in front of Sheng Guoer and Meng Xingzhou, they suddenly felt a very familiar feeling!
"Xingzhou, why do I feel like this woman looks so familiar?"
Meng Xingzhou frowned, touched his nose and said, "It looks familiar to me too."
At this moment, their pupils dilated sharply at the same time, and then they turned their heads to face each other at the same time, shouting in unison: "It's my mother!"
Sheng Guoer said: "This woman looks so much like my mother-in-law!"
Meng Xingzhou nodded and said, "Yes, she looks so much like my mother when I was a child!"
Sheng Guoer narrowed her eyes, thought carefully, and said while thinking: "You know, the little koi usually doesn't give me hints for no reason. As long as it gives me hints, it must have value and a story. Last time You also know Lu Ban Shu."
Meng Xingzhou took a deep breath and said, "I understand what you mean, I'm going to pick up my mother from Xifeng Village right now!"
Sheng Guoer said: "Okay, remember to bring more money!"
Meng Xingzhou nodded, turned and left.
After a while, Meng Xingzhou picked up his mother, Mrs. Chen.
As soon as Mrs. Chen saw Sheng Guoer, she said with an angry look on her face: "Guoer, why are you so urgent in calling me here in such a hurry?"
Sheng Guoer held Mrs. Chen's hand and said, "Mom, I have something to ask you. Do you know Gao Jingjie?"
Mrs. Chen was stunned and said, "Gao Jingjie, I've never heard of it!"
Sheng Guoer pondered for a moment, thinking that since the little koi carp could draw a portrait of Chen, Chen must be related to this matter or to Gao Jingjie!
If it was this plan, Chen was kept in the dark from beginning to end. Gao Jingjie didn't even figure out what the real purpose of his plan was, let alone Chen.
That is to say, Chen is related to Gao Jingjie!
As soon as Sheng Guoer thought of this, she said, "Xingzhou, please give me a picture of Gao Jingjie!"
Meng Xingzhou nodded in agreement, and then painted Gao Jingjie's appearance with a splash of ink.
When Gao Jingjie's appearance came out, Chen Shizi identified it carefully and suddenly smiled: "Hey, isn't this a tall guy?"
Sheng Guoer and Meng Xingzhou looked at each other and said in unison: "Tall?"
Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "Oh, what Gao Jingjie? Although this guy has aged, his temperament has not changed. I can still recognize him! He is the tall guy in our village!"
The underground emperor Gao Jingjie, who had always been decisive in killing and vicious, now seemed like a lowly person in Chen's eyes, even like an old man squatting at the entrance of the village smoking cigarettes!
This contrasting and cute operation really made Sheng Guoer a little dumbfounded.
Chen continued: "Well, this kid's family is poor, but he is ruthless. He is the best fighter in the village. Later, because he could fight, he joined the army. It seems that he later became a small school in the Iron Blood Alliance. Anyway, I Later, I got married and no longer contacted him!"
Sheng Guoer took the opportunity to ask, "Did you have any contact or entanglement with him when you were young?"
Chen fell into memories and suddenly laughed.
Meng Xingzhou asked: "Mom, why are you laughing?"
Ms. Chen said: "I laughed because I was afraid that if I said it, your father would be jealous if he found out!"
Sheng Guoer's gossip heart was instantly aroused, and she quickly asked: "What's going on?"
Chen said: "He can join the army, which has something to do with me!"
Next, Ms. Chen talked about her "grievances and grudges" with the tall man Gao Jingjie.
At that time, Mrs. Chen was still a well-known beauty from all over the country. Her father was a civil servant. She was from a well-educated family and was engaged in business. Therefore, people who wanted to propose marriage had to cross the threshold.
But Chen was arrogant and arrogant, and most people looked down on him. There was a young man in the village named Gao Jie, nicknamed Tall Man. His family was poor, but he and Chen grew up together and were childhood sweethearts.
Unlike other people in the family, Chen's father sympathized with the poor and did not look down on the Gao family. Instead, he allowed his daughter to play with these families.
In this way, Gao Jie fell in love with Mr. Chen at the age when he was young and ignorant and had his first love.
Chen has a cheerful personality and talks to Gao Jing about everything. Because he is his childhood friend, Chen has always regarded Gao Jie as a brother, so he talked about his troubles in blind dates.
Gao Jie was silent.
The next day, a strange news came from the village. All the matchmakers who proposed marriage to the Chen family were beaten and disabled. The worst thing was that their mouths were sewn shut!
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she immediately thought that Gao Jing had done this, and ran to question Gao Jingjie.
Gao Jie admitted frankly and expressed his love for Chen.
But at that time, Mrs. Chen was young and energetic, and she was very disdainful of Gao Jingjie's cruel behavior, so she angrily rejected him and said many angry words, especially the sentence: "You, a poor boy, are not worthy at all." Me!" This deeply stimulated Gao Jie's fragile heart.
The sad Gao Jie could not do anything to his beloved Chen, so he had to vent his anger on others.
Therefore, Gao Jie became the "bully" in the village during that time!
Later, Gao Jie injured the son of a township official, got into a lawsuit, and wanted to be beheaded.
Mrs. Chen couldn't bear it and went to visit Gao Jingjie before the execution.
Gao Jie was beaten and bruised all over his body at this moment, and he asked Chen if he could wrap him up in mourning and give him a ride.
Chen promised with tears in his eyes. Gao Jie thought Chen liked him, but Chen said he treated him like a brother and gave him a handkerchief embroidered with peach blossoms.
At this time, Mrs. Chen had already fallen in love with Meng Zhengtang, but she didn't tell him just to avoid irritating Gao Jie. She gave him a handkerchief embroidered with peach blossoms just to comfort him.
The disheartened Gao Jie no longer feared life and death, and laughed loudly on the execution ground, looking heroic.
Perhaps it was because he should not have been killed, or perhaps Gao Jie was helped by a noble person. His pride moved a general of the Iron Blood Alliance.
The general pardoned his crime and accepted him as a soldier. And Gao Jie was also renamed Gao Jingjie by the general according to the seniority ranking of the Thirteen Taibao.
Before leaving, Gao Jingjie swore to Mr. Chen: "One day, I will definitely create a niche for Mr. Chen!"
After listening to Chen's story, Sheng Guoer said, "Mom, I didn't expect you to have such a thrilling love story when you were young!"
Mrs. Chen looked a little shy and said, "Hey, these are all scandals from my youth. By the way, why are you asking about these?"
Sheng Guoer smiled and said, "Perhaps you will meet this old friend soon!"
At this moment, in the study room of Gao Mansion, Gao Jingjie stared at the handkerchief embroidered with peach blossoms in his hand with complicated eyes.
With her own hard work and struggle, Gao Jingjie became the leader of the Iron Blood Alliance and the underground emperor of Ping'an Township, but she could not find the old Chen family.
He only knew that Mrs. Chen was married, but after several searches, he could not find Mrs. Chen.
Because at that time, Chen had already had a quarrel with Meng Zhengtang and went to a nunnery to repair.
Gao Jingjie could only hide this longing deeply in his heart.
Over the past twenty years, Gao Jingjie has had countless women, but he only used them as Chen's substitutes.
Therefore, all the ladies in the Gao Mansion who looked very similar to Mrs. Chen, or had similar eyes, similar face shapes, similar personalities, or even similar voices, were all brought into the mansion by Gao Jingjie.
"Xiao Ru, where are you?" Gao Jingjie said silently.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Gao Jingjie returned to reality from her thoughts and said, "Who is it?"
Xiaozhuang's voice sounded at the door: "Mr. Gao, it's me, Xiaozhuang!"
Gao Jingjie responded calmly: "Come in!"
Gao Jingjie knew that Xiaozhuang knew his own rules and would not come to the study to disturb him unless there was something important. Therefore, if he came at this time, there must be something important.
Xiaozhuang walked in softly. Gao Jingjie put away the handkerchief, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiaozhuang reported on Du Fuling and Xu Yunchan's help in sorting out the accounts, and then Xiaozhuang said: "Mr. Gao, I have detained these two people. Do you want to kill them or not?"
Gao Jingjie said: "Keep it for now. If there is any bad behavior, handle it quietly as if they have encountered an accident."
Xiaozhuang nodded, and Gao Jingjie asked, "Has Sheng Guoer done anything strange recently?"
Xiaozhuang shook his head and said, "No, Sheng Guoer has been very quiet and diligent recently."
Gao Jingjie touched his beard and said: "I guess she knows how powerful she is. You did a good job and captured two of her most capable men. She won't have to worry about Sheng Guo'er being frightened!"
Xiaozhuang cupped his hands and said, "Best regards, sir!"
Gao Jingjie waved his hand, and Xiaozhuang retreated.
Looking out the window, Gao Jingjie closed her eyes and continued to miss Xiaoru in her heart.
And his Xiao Ru was currently being pestered by Sheng Guoer and Meng Xingzhou.
"Oh, why should I go to see him? He's gone!" Mrs. Chen didn't want to bring up the past, let alone have anything to do with the past.
"Mom, you have to go. If you don't go, my mother, Xiao Tao, and our shopkeepers Du Fuling and Xu Yunchan will all die!"
Sheng Guoer looked at Chen with tears in her eyes.
Mrs. Chen hurriedly wiped Sheng Guoer's tears and said, "Okay, okay, okay, good boy, let's not cry. Mom will find a way for you. Actually, I don't need to go, I just need to send something over!"
Meng Xingzhou asked curiously: "Mom, what do you want to give to Gao Jingjie?"
Mrs. Chen smiled slightly and took out something from her arms.
