Chapter 439 Gu Hui's Sudden Improvement

The eldest lady was very surprised, and the hand that was holding the hairpin from the bun couldn't help but stop, looking at Mama Pang's face from the bronze mirror.

"Who did it? A thief? Doesn't stealing make murder?"

"On the surface, it's true. Everyone in the house is saying that it's fortunate that Bai Kou's purse saved the disaster."

"but?"

"But the dagger pierced through the front of the leather bag, piercing through the notepad and the money bag, and the tip of the blade pierced through the back of the leather bag, scratching the flesh of Bai Kou's abdomen and not hurting the internal organs. Ma'am, it is used by ordinary thieves. Where is the dagger so sharp?"

"This is not theft, this is assassination!" The lady suddenly became angry, "Since you came to kill Bai Kou, either Brother Yun offended someone outside, or Bai Kou offended someone himself. Brother Yun only follows the identity Quite a lot of people come and go, and if they offend someone, others will only settle accounts with him. If it is Bai Kou who offended someone, the most likely thing to attract revenge is that she saved the emperor's grandson. My prince and child, hum!"

"Now that the other side's assassination has failed, I don't know what will happen next."

"The failure of the assassination is to scare the snake away. I don't think he will try to kill again in the short term. Isn't Bai Kou accompanied by guards? Do they have any clues?"

"Bai Kou was buying colored yarn at a woolen stall. There were a group of girls and daughters-in-law there. How could the guards follow so closely? When they heard the movement, Bai Kou had already fallen to the ground and the murderer was gone. Bai Kou fought hard and got another serious injury, but the murderer didn't let the murder weapon away, it's still stuck in the purse, and I'll show them when Master and Master come back at night."

"When you are suddenly attacked, you can think of leaving physical evidence. Bai Kou is really bold and careful."

"It's been about a year since the young master asked her to practice martial arts. It's normal to have this reaction."

"How is she doing now?"

"Flesh wounds are nothing serious. After a day or two of scabbing, she will be fine. It's just that she was slapped on the shoulder by the murderer in order to grab the murder weapon. Although she didn't hurt her muscles and bones, she still had to rest for ten and a half months. , Now the unanimous statement to the outside world is that Bai Kou will stay in bed for a few days and hang his arms for a month, and Songnan Hall has already taken care of it, and no one will talk nonsense."

"I'm afraid that the purpose at the beginning was to create the false impression that the thief would not be able to steal and kill. After he failed, he just ignored it in a hurry. It's not so easy to assassinate the servants of my Lord Ye's mansion in the street in broad daylight. Forget it!" The eldest lady had an angry look on her face.

"Madam, calm down, the situation is reversed now, and the initiative is in our hands. You can rest for a while, and wait for the master and the young master to come back to discuss and discuss."

"It's not good to have a scar on the little girl's body. You remember to give her a box of muscle-creating ointment. It can be used after the wound scabs over."

"Yes, ma'am."

Mama Pang helped the lady take off her make-up, and helped her take a nap. After she was asleep, she went to find the birth muscle ointment and sent someone to deliver it to Bai Kou.

Bai Kou also had guests, and the news had already spread on the street. Bai Rui brought the child over to visit in a panic. Bai Kou even lied to the eldest sister, lying on the bed and talking weakly. Seeing her like this, Bai Rui thought she was It was really badly hurt, and I sat on the edge of the bed crying and wet half a handkerchief.

"Sister, don't worry about crying for now, remember what I ordered, and go back to the shopkeeper in a while and tell the shopkeeper to prepare the money, double refund."

"I remember, you should take good care of your wounds, the shopkeeper and the cashier will definitely settle the money overnight."

"After it's done, I'll send it to the mansion, and the names and addresses of the guests. I'll ask the girls in the courtyard to deliver them. They are familiar with those ladies and can speak clearly. If someone else comes to the door, it's still a refund. Don’t think something happened to the women’s tea room.”

"Okay, okay, I'll remember it all, you can rest assured, don't think so much, you have to believe that your subordinates will handle things well, not to mention there is still the son, he is the boss, maybe he has more Good idea."

After hearing what the elder sister said, Bai Kou smiled and said nothing more.

After sitting with her for a while, Bai Rui calmed down, said goodbye to her sister, and left with her daughter.

Xiao Ye Zi, who had been waiting in the living room, came in with muscle-promoting ointment, told Bai Kou, and put it in her medicine box.

Bai Kou rustled and wanted to sit up, she was tired after lying down for a long time, Xiao Zi Zi was about to help her, when she heard Aunt Rong's voice outside the door, Gu Hui came to see Bai Kou.

Before she had time to think about how Gu Hui would come, Bai Kou quickly lay down again, and Xiao Yezi went out to welcome their three master and servant in.

Aunt Rong and Shui Zhen led Gu Tu in from left to right, and led her to the bed.

"Look, Bai Kou is alright, right? She's fine." Aunt Rong smiled lovingly.

"Thank you Miss Hui for coming to visit the maid." Bai Kou thanked in a low voice pretending to be weak.

Gu Hui stared straight at Bai Kou on the bed, and suddenly broke away from the support of Shui Zhen and Aunt Rong. In the astonishment of everyone, Gu Hui slowly bent down, took the initiative to hold Bai Kou's hand, There was a gurgling sound in the throat, and two vague sounds came out after a while.

"Coffee..."

Aunt Rong felt a loud noise in her head, her body went limp, she shook a few times, and was supported by Shuizhen and Xiao Yezi in time, took her to a chair by the window and sat down, watching Gu Hui's performance excitedly.

Bai Kou also opened her mouth wide, looking dumbfounded.

Gu Hui actually spoke! ?
"Coffee..."

Gu Tu pulled Bai Kou's hand, and her pronunciation became clearer.

"Hui...Miss Hui..." Bai Kou licked her lips and found her voice.

"Hui...Hui...Hui...Hui..." Gu Hui continued to pull Bai Kou's hand, the other hand was still pointing at his chest, and kept repeating single-chapter sounds.

"Huihui?" Bai Kou called out tentatively.

"...Huhui..." Gu Hui immediately followed suit.

Bai Kou smiled happily, "Okay, from now on you will call me Kou Zi, and I will call you Tu Hui."

Aunt Rong's tears burst out of her eyes no longer, and she and Shuizhen hugged each other and cried, while Xiao Yezi stood beside her and kept wiping her eyes with a handkerchief.

Bai Kou clenched Gu Hui's hand, but opened her mouth to call Shui Zhen.

"Shui Zhen?"

"Hey, what's the order from Manager Bai?" Shui Zhen asked with a sob in her voice, wiping away her tears.

"In the future, you should serve more roughly, don't be too meticulous."

"...for...why?"

"If it's too detailed, Huihui won't talk. Be rough and let Huihui ask for something by herself. Don't take the initiative to give her. For example, drink water, you can ask her if she drinks tea, boiled water, soda, or what Other water. Understand?"

"Understood!" Before Shuizhen could speak, Aunt Rong took the lead, "It's like teaching a child how to speak. Since we, sister Hui, have spoken now, we must stimulate her to speak more."

"Yes, Aunt Rong is right." Bai Kou smiled slightly.

"Okay, I've made a note, and I'll be rougher in the future." Shuizhen nodded vigorously.

Aunt Rong took out her handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face, suppressed her excitement and slowly got up, walking to Gu Hui's side.

"Sister Hui, it's time for us to go back. Let Bai Kou recover from his injuries. You can play with her after a few days when she is able to go to the ground, okay?"

Gu Hui ignored Aunt Rong, wondering if she heard her mother's words, she just took Bai Kou's hand again, "Kou Zi."

"Be good, Huihui, go back first, and come see me at this time tomorrow, okay?"

"Tomorrow." Gu Hui bluntly imitated Bai Kou.

"Well, tomorrow."

Gu Hui blinked lightly and let go of her hand.

Aunt Rong and Shui Zhen had a sore nose and almost cried again. They hurriedly said goodbye to Bai Kou and took Gu Hui away.
