Chapter 256 Not a Fuel-Efficient Lamp
Tao Yao frowned slightly, and looked at her carefully.

Zhong Ling in front of her was completely different from the way she was in the room just now, as if she hadn't thought about Lu Jiuyuan just now.

"Okay, sister-in-law?" Zhong Ling shook her arm with an innocent expression.

Tao Yao paused, but before she could speak, Dong'er, who followed her today, took a step forward and said, "Miss Zhong, my wife is a little dizzy, I'm afraid I can't entertain you, and Miss Zhong is tired, so I'd better stay here." It’s better to have a good rest in the guest house.”

Hearing this, Zhong Ling frowned, looked at her, and muttered: "The sister-in-law hasn't spoken yet, you are a servant, and you can represent the master?"

She seemed to be muttering, but her voice was not small.

Dong'er heard it, but she was not angry. She glanced at Tao Yao, and then said nothing.

Tao Yao naturally also heard what Zhong Ling said, and after taking a look at her, she brushed her hand away, and said in a calm tone: "Miss Zhong, my servant girl is right, I am really dizzy, I really can't entertain you today Now, please do yourself a favor."

Dong'er heard this and immediately held her hand.

Tao Yao didn't look at Zhong Ling again, and with Dong'er's support, she left the guest house.

Zhong Ling stood there for a while, watched the two go out, and twitched the corner of his mouth, "What's the big deal?"

After leaving the guest house, Tao Yao gave Dong'er a thumbs up, "Very clever."

Dong'er smiled, but when she thought of something, she held back her smile and reminded: "However, the slave girl sees that Miss Zhong is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she probably won't give up."

"En." Tao Yao nodded, even Dong'er could see Zhong Ling's thoughts on Lu Jiuyuan.

But she believed in Lu Jiuyuan's character, even if Zhong Ling had feelings for Lu Jiuyuan, so what?

She is not worried.

After figuring this out, she felt better again, and on the way back to Tingfangyuan, she went for a walk in the garden with Dong'er.

guest house.

The conversation between Lu Jiuyuan and Guo Dalu was over.

However, although he told Guo Daru about the situation of the emperor and Wan Jieyu, he still needed to discuss with the crown prince about entering the palace for diagnosis and treatment.

So after coming out of the guest house, he went to the palace.

Seeing him coming and going in a hurry, Zhong Ling couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"Teacher, why did senior brother leave again?" She entered the room and asked.

"He has important things to do." Guo Daru said.

"What did Senior Brother Cai tell you?" Zhong Ling asked curiously.

Guo Daru gave her a slap, "Don't ask."

"Can't I even say it?" Zhong Ling frowned, a little dissatisfied.

Guo Daru said seriously: "If you can say it, I will tell you of course."

Seeing this, Zhong Ling closed his mouth.

She understands the teacher's temperament, although he usually dotes on her, but when it comes to important matters, he is very measured, and no matter how much she asks, he won't say anything he doesn't want to say.

"I didn't expect senior brother to be so good-looking." She changed the subject, "I thought he was an old man."

"Nonsense, your brother is only [-] this year, how come you are an old man?" Guo Daru was displeased.

Zhong Ling resentfully said: "I haven't seen my senior brother, isn't this a guess?"

Guo Daru glanced at her, and warned: "Your senior brother has already married a wife, and your senior sister-in-law is also pregnant now, please be quiet and don't have any wrong thoughts."

Zhong Ling heard this and said dissatisfiedly, "Why did the teacher say that about me?"

"I picked you up when you were still relatively young, and raised you to such an age. I can't see what's going on in your heart?" Guo Daru said with a serious face.

Hearing this, Zhong Ling simply said: "Brother is a dragon and phoenix among people, everyone will yearn for it, besides, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?

Even if I don't move my mind, don't others?Also, I don't believe that the senior brother never takes concubines all his life, and only guards his senior sister-in-law. "

Guo Daru was so angry with her, "You really have no shame for your senior brother. You still have three wives and four concubines? Could it be that you still want to be his concubine? Are you shameless?"

Zhong Ling was on the verge of tears at what he said, "I'm just talking casually, what are you so serious about? Am I really willing to degenerate and become a concubine for others? The teacher is so annoying!" After finishing speaking, she ran away out.

Seeing this, Guo Daru was anxious and angry, but he believed that he was not wrong, this girl was just thinking about Jiu Yuan that she shouldn't have.

But what he didn't expect was that after Zhong Ling ran out of the guest courtyard, he went straight out of the Duke's mansion.

It was getting dark, Guo Daru went to find Zhong Ling for dinner, only to find that she was not in the house, and immediately asked someone to look for her.

It's a pity that they searched all over the house, but they couldn't find Zhong Ling.

Tao Yao was in the Tingfang Courtyard, after hearing the news, she had no choice but to rush to the Guest Courtyard again.

"Sir, Miss Zhong hasn't come back yet?"

"No." Guo Daru shook his head.

"What's going on, why did Miss Zhong run out suddenly?" Tao Yao was puzzled.

Guo Daru sighed and said: "That girl was spoiled by me, she did something wrong, I reprimanded her a few words, maybe I spoke too harshly, she couldn't accept it for a while, so she ran out."

When Tao Yao heard this, she vaguely understood something in her heart. Looking at the old man with white hair and beard, she couldn't hide the worry between her brows, and said in relief, "Sir, don't worry too much, Ms. Zhong is not a child anymore, she might be back soon." gone."

"That girl came to the capital for the first time, and she is not familiar with the place..." Guo Daru frowned, not without worry.

"I'll send more people to look for it right now, and I'm sure we can find Miss Zhong back." Tao Yao said.

"I have caused you trouble." Guo Daru was very ashamed.

"Sir, don't say such outrageous things." Tao Yao shook her head.

However, she just wanted to send someone out to look for it, so Uncle Chen hurried in, "Miss Zhong is back."

"It's good to be back." Tao Yao nodded, looked at Guo Daru and said, "You can rest assured, sir."

Guo Daru was indeed relieved, but he cursed: "What a stinking girl!"

Just as Tao Yao was about to ask Uncle Chen where he was, she saw Lu Jiuyuan walking in outside the door, followed by Zhong Ling.

Seeing this, Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, "Husband, did you come back with Miss Zhong?"

Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "I ran into her on the way."

"You stinky girl, you still know how to come back?" Guo Daru scolded with an ugly expression.

Zhong Ling pursed her lips and did not speak.

Seeing her like this, Guo Daru softened his heart and changed his tone, "Don't be so ignorant next time, making everyone worry about you and looking for you."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Ling immediately apologized to Tao Yao, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, for causing you trouble."

Tao Yao shook her head, "You don't have to apologize to me, I didn't do anything, but sir, I'm so worried about you, next time Miss Zhong wants to go out, she must tell her husband first."

Zhong Ling lowered his head, "Got it." Thinking of something, he looked at Lu Jiuyuan again, "Thank you brother this time, if I hadn't met brother, I might not be able to come back." Between the words, she was quite excited.

Tao Yao paused, and was relieved to see that Lu Jiuyuan ignored her.

After hearing this, Guo Daru looked at Lu Jiuyuan and asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Jiuyuan said truthfully: "On the way back, I happened to meet Miss Zhong being bullied by local hooligans, so I brought her back."
