So I play chess

Chapter 159 Zheng Bai's Determination

"Miss, what kind of ability does this Wang Laosan have to spend so much time on?"

After returning to the room, Zhixia finally expressed the doubts in her heart.

Wen Gu picked such a person from the Wang family, not on a whim.

Before that day, Li Maowenliang each made preparations in advance. According to Wen Gu's request, they chose a person who had some ability but was not important.

In the end, such a Wang Laosan was selected. Wen Gu first decided on the person secretly, and then picked him out in the Wang's house after holding a banquet at the intersection of the cross street.

It's just that everyone saw Wen Gu's attitude at that time, and felt that the matter was not that important, but it was not difficult but cumbersome.

"We don't have too many great people we can use right now, so we have to be more cumbersome to do things." Wen Gu also felt a little helpless, "His skills are not as effective as his usefulness, and you will know in a while."

Zhixia had no choice but to nod: "I've been running around all day today, I'm going to boil some hot water to bathe the eldest lady to remove the dust?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized what the eldest lady said just now, and asked suspiciously: "Is the matter tonight not over yet?"

Wen Gu said "not necessarily", but he didn't stop Zhixia from boiling the water, he just said it should be done quickly.

Zhixia's hands and feet were quick, and she quickly cleaned up, but before Wen Gu even had time to change his clothes, a maid suddenly came to report that it was Zheng Bai who was begging to see him outside.

"It's so late, and someone is really here?" Zhixia didn't have any emotions, but felt a little pity, "But the water is already boiled."

"You can't waste the firewood and your work." Wen Gu smiled, and then said to the maid, "Just say that I am washing and washing, let him sit for a while first, and I will be there later."

The maid responded and went out to report back.Wen Gu wants Zhixia to continue to take care of her in the bath.

"Really wash?" Zhi Xia only felt that the eldest lady never delays in her daily affairs, and it was abnormal for her not to rush at this time.

Wen Gu said, of course, Zhixia had no choice but to wait on him peacefully.

After bathing and grooming and tidying up, after half an hour, Wen Gu finally asked someone to lead Zheng Bai to the inner hall first.

Wen Gu himself sat in front of the bronze mirror and let Zhixia wipe her hair carefully.

After taking a bath, the person didn't become more awake, but rather sleepy and dazed.

The bronze mirror reflected the face of a young girl who was supposed to be innocent and at a bright age. Wen Gu stared at the bronze mirror for a moment in a daze, feeling that his mind could not match this appearance.

If there were no changes in Liangzhou, when she was old, her father would have arranged for her a marriage with people related to the Liangzhou Army, and with the status of the young lady of the Liangzhou Army as a guarantee, she might be stable in the back house, or she might have some calculations , But life may be worry-free.

However, if that is the case, although I will not be able to exhaust all the tricks like this, and I will not face life and death several times, but I will not have such an opportunity to learn many skills, and I will not be able to see this dangerous world, let alone face it. It's not as vast as the outside of the house.

Of course, the vast world she wants to see is not just Tongcheng.

Wen Gu's random thoughts were interrupted by Zhixia's questioning voice, it turned out that she was asking her if it was already late at night, if she only saw Zheng Bai and didn't need to go out, would it be good to wear a simple bun.

"So be it."

Wen Gu got up, planning to go out with his hair all over.Zhixia didn't stop her even if she wanted to, so she had to let her do her thing.

When Wen Gu walked to the inner hall, Zheng Bai had already been waiting for a while.Seeing the prefect's aunt come out and her unadorned appearance, she was obviously a little stunned.

"I'm really tired today, Mr. Zheng Lang, don't take offense." Wen Gu said, regardless of Zheng Bai's expression, he went straight to the main seat and sat down.

Zhixia was afraid that the eldest lady would be blown by the wind, so she hurriedly ordered someone to close the doors and windows in the inner hall, brought a charcoal basin over, and filled the hand stove that had been put down for a few days before it could be put away, and stuffed it into Wen Gu's hand. inside.

Zheng Bai was just taken aback for a moment, but soon regained his composure.When Zhixia finished the series of things and only the three of them were left in the inner hall, Zheng Bai suddenly stood up, walked to the place facing Wen Gu in the middle of the inner hall, bent his legs, and knelt down down.

"What is Zheng Langjun doing?" Wen Gu was somewhat prepared in his heart, but he didn't expect that he would kneel down as soon as he came up, and quickly got up to help.

But Zhixia went over first, rushing to help him for the young lady.

"Missy said today that she treated me like one of her own, and asked me to take care of my mother. Zheng Bai had never been treated like this before, and he didn't know what kind of ability he had. He deserved to be valued so much by Missy. But since Missy said so, After doing this again, Zheng Bai only wants to be grateful in his heart, and he just wants to serve the eldest lady wholeheartedly." Zheng Bai didn't intend to get up, kneeling on the ground and said seriously.

"Mr. Zheng Lang, don't underestimate yourself. It's cold on the ground. Get up and talk." Wen Gu knew that persuasion was useless, so he didn't even step forward and said standing up.

"Miss, please listen to me." Zheng Bai just shook his head, "Although I think so, but now I am under the control of others, although I haven't been asked to do anything at this time, but after a long time, troubles will definitely arise. I sincerely stay in Bushaju and do things for the eldest lady, so I cannot hide the current situation from the eldest lady."

"Constrained by others?" Wen Gu asked suspiciously, "You mean Zheng Tong?"

When Zheng Bai heard this, he simply fell to the ground: "My mother is now being held by Zheng Tong, I don't know what's going on."

Wen Gu frowned and said: "Since I want you to do things for me, I will definitely not let you have any worries. If you can tell me the truth, I will understand your thoughts. Get up and explain it to me in detail. "

After Wen Gu finished speaking, Zhixia went to help him again, and Zheng Bai was willing to get up.

Wen Gu didn't go back to sit down at the main seat, but sat next to Zheng Bai, and listened to him talk about what happened after returning home today.

It turned out that after Zheng Bai went back with his things, he found that the yard where he had been living before was empty. He thought that Mrs. Tian was out shopping, but after waiting for a while, no one came back, so he had to boldly go to Zheng's house to ask.

Only after this question did I learn that after Zheng Tong went back yesterday, he took Lady Tian back to live in Zheng's house.Zheng Bai wanted to see his mother, but the butler of Zheng's house who was talking to him refused.

Wherever Zheng Bai was willing to give up, he was about to cause trouble in the Zheng family. Zheng Tong then appeared and came out to appease him personally, saying that as long as he was by the prefect's aunt and took good care of him, his mother and son would naturally be able to meet, and even be reunited. Mrs. Tian's wish is for him to be included in the genealogy of the Zheng family.

Zheng Bai didn't know the meaning of his words, but since his mother was in his hands, he didn't dare to tear his face, so he had to turn back.
