Rebirth of a prosperous doctor girl
Chapter 141
Chapter 141
"Jiulang!" Gu Chongyang chased after him, and the two stood still under a pine tree: "I really don't understand, you should tell me, otherwise I won't be able to eat and sleep well."
She was telling the truth, and she felt that Wang Jiulang must have had a deep meaning in doing this, and he was not a nosy person.
Her voice was delicate and soft, her big eyes were watery, and she was cuter than the velvet he raised. He resisted the thought of rubbing her head, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
This little girl is too beautiful, too beautiful to refuse.
Picking the corner of his lips lightly, Wang Jiulang said lightly, "It's because of you."
"What?" Gu Chongyang's face turned red all of a sudden, it was so hot that she felt a burning sensation, and she suddenly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Her heart was pounding like thunder, did she hear it wrong?It was because of her that Wang Jiulang helped his uncle's family.This... What does this mean? Is it what she thinks?Could this be true?
She stood there blankly, feeling her whole body was hot, and after a long time she said, "Jiulang, you..."
Wang Jiulang had already walked away, but his indifferent and cold voice reached her ears clearly: "The construction of the public temple has been completed, and the great sacrifice has been successfully completed. In a few days, I will return to the capital. I will leave you alone." In the Wang family, besides letting you be her disciple, there are other purposes, don't you forget our previous agreement?"
What he said was the truth, but she felt as if someone had poured cold water on her head, extinguishing the hot fantasy in her heart.
Gu Chongyang couldn't help but smiled wryly, yes, who is Wang Jiulang, how could he have any thoughts about her, she is really whimsical.
This fact made her slightly depressed, but she quickly regained her composure. They were not from the same world. Her mission was to help Wang Jiulang find out the person who had an affair with Mrs. Baozhen. Wang Jiulang spared her life , she must complete the task, this is her price.
"I haven't forgotten." Gu Chongyang took a deep breath, suppressed all the messy thoughts in his mind, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Jiulang, I will do what I say, and I will definitely fulfill the agreement."
"You care about the Shen family very much, even to the point where you are trembling with fear. I helped the Shen family solve the crisis, so that you will have no worries when you return to the capital, and you will be able to complete the task better." Wang Jiulang turned around suddenly She turned around and looked at her with burning eyes: "Tell me, what are you worried about?"
At this moment, his gaze was very sharp, with deep probing, as if he wanted to see through the thoughts in her heart, which was very different from the calm and breezy before.
She was worried that the Shen family would get on King Rong's boat in a daze, and worried that after Wang Jiulang forced King Rong to commit suicide, the Shen family would become a false emperor and be beheaded by all the officials.
But how could she say this?
In the past, she was so anxious that she never said it, but now that her uncle has solved the crisis, there is no possibility of getting involved with King Rong, let alone her.
Gu Chongyang lowered his head and did not speak.
Her silence made Wang Jiulang slightly annoyed, he glanced at her, turned and left.
Seeing his back as he went away, Gu Chongyang felt very blocked. He is the savior of the Shen family. She can give his life to him, but there are some secrets that she cannot tell.
She is a person who died and was born again. She said, who would believe it?
At the beginning of September, Wang Jiulang and his party set off for the capital, and Gu Chongyang accompanied them.
Wang Jiulang was always low-key and didn't like excessive noise, and he didn't inform Nanjing officials of the date of going north. Therefore, only the members of the Shen family, Xiao Shitou, his grandfather, and a few monks from Jiming Temple came to see him off.
I don't know when we will be able to meet each other this time, Gu Chongyang is grateful for his uncle's kindness in protecting him in his previous life, regardless of the obstruction, he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Shen Yucheng and Mrs. Shen.
Shen Yucheng's eyes were red, her voice was choked with sobs and her hands helped her up. She wanted to say something but didn't know where to start. Finally, she just said: "Go to the capital and be well, and burn incense in front of your mother's grave for me. Remember to give it to your uncle often." write a letter."
He wanted to keep her by his side, but Wang Jiulang's words made him see the truth clearly, if not for Chongyang's wisdom and Wang Jiulang's help, the Shen family might have been in disaster.Chongyang is so beautiful, it is really difficult for Shen's family to protect her well, maybe even implicate her.
This niece is pure gold and beautiful jade. Since she has become Mrs. Baozhen's disciple, Wang Jiulang also promised to protect her, and returning to the capital is the best choice.
Gu Chongyang also cried: "Uncle, don't worry, I will be fine."
Shen Suying came up to hug Gu Chongyang, and said angrily: "You are going to leave me again and go to the capital to have fun by yourself. It is not enough sisterhood. When you arrive in the capital, you must write to me. If you have delicious food and fun, you must entrust the store. Give me a little. If you forget me, I will never talk to you again. "
I cried at the end too.
Gu Chongyang nodded heavily: "Don't worry, no one will forget you if I forget."
Patting Xiaoshitou's head, Gu Chongyang wiped his tears and said, "Little Shitou will not cry, I will wait for you to grow into a man and come to the capital to play with me."
Finally, he bowed to everyone, Gu Chongyang and Dan Xin turned around and boarded the boat together.
Everything on the shore ran back quickly, and the person seeing off gradually turned into a black spot, and gradually, even the Nanjing ferry was no longer visible.
When she came here, she thought she would live in Nanjing for three to five years, but she didn't expect that she would go back in just nine months.
She felt that time passed quickly, but Danxin was not the same as she thought at all, and Danxin was very excited about returning to the capital: "It's been more than nine months since we left, and I don't know what's going on in the capital?"
Seeing her so happy, the reluctance in Gu Chongyang's heart gradually dissipated, and he said with a smile: "What else can I do, it's probably not much different from when we left, and we will arrive in the capital in ten days or so."
Dan Xin's tone was full of longing: "Yes, I really want to go back to the capital in one step."
Gu Chongyang looked at her happy face, a thought flashed through his mind, and finally he didn't speak.
This is a big three-story ship. The sailors and boatmen live on the lower floor, the kitchen is on the middle floor, and the servants live on the middle floor.There are seven or eight rooms on the top floor, Wang Jiulang lives in the bow, Madam Baozhen lives in the middle, Gu Chongyang lives in the room at the stern, the other rooms are empty and very clean.
The room is clean and tidy, and the decoration is very beautiful and elegant, even better than ordinary houses of big families.
While laying things down, Dan Xin said with a smile: "Miss, the boat of Duke Wen's mansion is indeed extraordinary. I thought the boat of the Huashang Calligrapher's family was already very big and luxurious, but I didn't expect the boat of the Wang family to be bigger than the boat of the Hua family. It’s more than doubled, and the layout inside is much more luxurious.”
Yes, after all, it is the boat of Wang Jiulang and Mrs. Baozhen, so it must be very different from ordinary officials.
The two broke up unhappy that day, and met several times later, but each time it was just to say hello, Wang Jiulang was still so indifferent, but Gu Chongyang could feel his displeasure.
Mrs. Baozhen called Gu Chongyang to talk: "Except for you and Jiulang, the rest are servants, and the three of us don't need to share meals. I want to eat three meals a day together, what do you think?"
She looked at Gu Chongyang with a smile on the corner of her mouth, gentle and beautiful, with hope in her eyes.
Sir, she is looking for a chance to get along with Kuro!
Gu Chongyang thought of Mrs. Baozhen's excitement every time she saw Wang Jiulang, and Wang Jiulang's indifference, and said: "It's natural, it's all up to the master's arrangement."
Mrs. Baozhen was very happy, her brows and eyes crooked with a smile: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll let someone ask Jiulang."
When Nanny Yu got the order, she went to ask Wang Jiulang immediately, and she came back after a while.
Mrs. Baozhen looked at her nervously: "How about it, did Jiulang agree?"
Nanny Yu bowed: "Master Jiu is talking to the steward, and he will come over when he is done."
"Oh." Mrs. Baozhen nodded, her disappointment was hard to hide.Every time he would use such an excuse to reject her.
She was so desperate for Shu, it was unprecedented for him to be willing to walk with her, she couldn't ask him anymore, otherwise it would just be counterproductive, forcing him to go further and further away.After all, he was willing to talk to her, she should cherish it.
Gu Chongyang hurriedly said: "This tea is very fragrant, did you boil it with the dew on the lotus leaves? Why does it smell like there are other fragrances?"
"It's indeed the dew on the lotus leaves, but the tea leaves are planted under the plum tree, so they are infused with the fragrance of plum blossoms." Mrs. Baozhen smiled slightly: "You have such a nimble nose that you can tell the difference."
"I can't do anything else. I'm good at eating, drinking and having fun. I'm especially good at eating. I rely on my dexterous nose and picky tongue." Gu Chongyang deliberately coaxed Madam Zhen to be happy: "I drank such a good tea today, and I'm surprised by Mr. Wouldn't it be a pity if you can't drink such good tea after you have cultivated the taste?"
Mrs. Baozhen and Nanny Yu looked at each other and smiled: "If you want to drink tea, just come to me. Good tea and good water will keep you close, and I will never wrong your mouth. Just don't belittle yourself and say that you can't do anything else." , I see that you are very good, and your medical skills are even more exquisite."
"I'm a disciple of my husband, so you naturally think that I'm good in everything, but outsiders don't necessarily think so."
"Nonsense!" Mrs. Baozhen said: "I say you are good, you are good, who dares to say that you are not, I will be the first to disobey her!"
After getting along for a few months, Gu Chongyang also knows a lot about Mrs. Baozhen than at the beginning.Mrs. Baozhen is beautiful, proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, has a delicate life, and is good at maintenance, but her heart is very simple. She is not like a woman in her 30s. Her thoughts are often more like those raised in a deep boudoir. little girl.
She loves to be beautiful, to be lively, to be full of flowers, but also to be sad about spring and autumn. Her psychological thoughts are much more childish than Gu Chongyang, sometimes similar to that of Shen Suying.
Gu Chongyang was happy to be loved by Mrs. Baozhen so much, but at the same time felt a little guilty. If Mrs. Baozhen knew that the purpose of approaching her was not pure, she would be very disappointed.
As she thought about it, she heard Madam Yu report: "Master Jiu is here."
Mrs. Baozhen was startled, and immediately stood up. She thought that Wang Jiulang would not come if he refused her like before, but she didn't expect him to come, and she was at a loss for a while, she just stood there and said, "You come here gone."
As soon as Wang Jiulang turned his eyes around the room, he saw Gu Chongyang. She blessed him, and then stood aside.
Seeing her so alienated, Wang Jiulang felt a little bored.
What does she mean by this.He asked her about the Shen family's affairs, but he just wanted to help her. She didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't force it.He wasn't angry with her, but she showed him some face.It's really unreasonable!
Wang Jiulang nodded at Mrs. Baozhen, his face was as usual, but his voice was a little cold: "What's the matter?"
Hearing her son's faint voice, Mrs. Baozhen said a little nervously: "Most of the people on the boat are servants, and the three of us are the masters. I wanted to have dinner together, but I was afraid that you would be too busy. If you are busy, Just keep busy with you, Chongyang and I will be fine, and I will let people use your meals in your room."
"It doesn't need to be so troublesome." Wang Jiulang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Just eat in one place, and there is nothing to be busy on the boat."
When he was talking, his eyes kept falling on Gu Chongyang. Gu Chongyang felt that his gaze was as sharp as a knife, and he was even more reluctant to look up.
Mrs. Baozhen was overjoyed, and excitedly said incoherently: "What you said is that we will have dinner together, and you can tell the kitchen what you want to eat. I remember that you used to like sweet and sour fish the most, and you wanted to eat it without picking thorns." , it gets stuck every time, it's still your father..."
Speaking of this, the conversation stopped abruptly, and the atmosphere was as cold as ice for an instant.
Mrs. Baozhen's face turned pale, her eyes dodged, like a child who has done something wrong, she dared not look into Wang Jiulang's eyes.
Wang Jiulang's face was uglier than hers, he pursed his lips, turned and left without saying anything.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Baozhen cried: "It's all my fault. Let's talk about the past. I was sorry for him in the past, so he treated me better. I poked his wound again. Why did he die? , I would rather be the one who died! If I was the one who died back then, Jiulang wouldn't be so sad. Why didn't I die, why didn't I die?"
Mrs. Baozhen cried sadly, and what she said made Gu Chongyang secretly startled. Wang Jiulang's character is so cold, it was definitely not cultivated in a day. What happened back then?The fact that their mother and son have come to this point is obviously more related to that incident, and could Wang Jiulang's illness also be contracted at that time?
It's really indecent for Mrs. Baozhen to cry like this, but she may have suppressed it for a long time, and it might be a good thing to be able to cry, so she went back to her room.
When Jin Wuxi fell, Madam Yu invited Gu Chongyang to have dinner, Mrs. Baozhen's emotions had already calmed down, but her eyes were red and swollen, but they were not ugly, on the contrary they made her look a little more pitiful.
She really deserves to be a beauty.
I thought that Wang Jiulang would not come because of the unpleasant incident, but he still showed up before dinner, but Wang Jiulang and Mrs. Baozhen ate very little, and the atmosphere was very depressing. After a little meal, I hurried back to my room.
At night, the river beat against the hull, and the sound of wind and water came one after another, which was so clear to my ears.
I don't know if it was because of leaving Nanjing suddenly, Gu Chongyang couldn't fall asleep that night, he just tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep.
Suddenly there was a burst of mysterious vicissitudes of music outside the window, Gu Chongyang listened attentively, and it turned out to be Xun playing the famous song Xinghua Tianying.
At that time, most people liked the zither. I didn't expect that there would be someone on this boat who could play the xun so well.
He couldn't sleep anyway, and the weather wasn't cold, so Gu Chongyang simply put on his clothes and pushed open the door to the boat deck.
The new moon hung in the twilight sky, and Wang Jiulang stood facing the river in white clothes, and the exciting music came out slowly from the xun in his hand.
The sky and the earth are empty, only one person is left in January.
The night wind blew his robe, as if he would go away at any moment.
Gu Chongyang stared blankly for a moment, he was so lonely.
The royal family has been noble for generations, and Jiulang is a single descendant of Wen Guogong. There are not many people who want to get close to him, but she just feels that Jiulang is very lonely, so lonely that no one can walk into his heart.
It's better for her not to disturb him, Gu Chongyang turned around and was about to go back, when the sound of xun suddenly stopped, Wang Jiulang had already seen her.
The four eyes met, and she left immediately if she was not good, so she smiled apologetically: "I wanted to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect to disturb Jiulang Yaxing."
"It doesn't matter." Wang Jiulang said coldly, "Maybe my Xun sound disturbed your lucid dream."
"No." Gu Chongyang immediately said: "The sound of the xun is very nice, and it makes people linger intoxicated. Listening to Jiulang's playing will only make people fall into dreams faster, so why bother talking about dreams."
Wang Jiulang raised his eyebrows: "So, my Xun sound is too boring, it makes people feel drowsy?"
"No, no..." Gu Chongyang wanted to explain in a panic, but found that Wang Jiulang was looking at her with a slight smile on his face. Her gloomy mood suddenly became lighter and her courage became much stronger. He gave Wang Jiulang a look: "You clearly know that I don't mean that, but deliberately misinterpreted me!"
As soon as the words came out, she couldn't help but froze for a moment.This tone of voice is clearly coquettish.I don't know if Wang Jiulang would think her frivolous after hearing this.
The smile on Wang Jiulang's face deepened: "You are much smarter than before."
If someone else said this, Gu Chongyang might be angry.But it was quite different if Wang Jiulang said this, even though Gu Chongyang knew that he was deliberately making fun of her.
She smiled complacently and raised her eyebrows: "Of course, I am also a disciple of my husband after all. I have been studying with my husband for so long, and I have been influenced by my ears and eyes. Naturally, I am getting smarter."
She was like a child who was praised, and Wang Jiulang couldn't help laughing.
When he smiled, the faint gloom between his brows dissipated, and his shining eyes were even brighter and more dazzling than the stars in the sky.
It would be great if Kuro was so happy every day.
In the past few days, he has been keeping a straight face, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Gu Chongyang took a deep breath and decided to have a good talk with Wang Jiulang: "Jiulang, I know that it is for my own good that you asked me about the Shen family. In my eyes. I am not an ungrateful person. You saved the Shen family, which is equivalent to saving me, and I am even more grateful than saving me. Don't say that you asked me a question, you just want my life. I don't even bat an eye."
"It's just that everyone has secrets that they don't want to be known by others. You and I are no exception. Jiulang, you have a physical illness, but you don't want others to know. I have secrets that are hard to tell just like you. Many things, I don't say it's not me I don't want to, but because I can't say it, I believe you can understand Jiulang, if you talk about trust, besides my mother and uncle, the person I trust the most in this world is Jiulang."
Wang Jiulang didn't expect her to say such a thing.
Her mother has passed away, and her uncle is far away in Nanjing. The only one she can trust in the future is him!
His breathing became heavy uncontrollably, his heart beat a few times faster, and his heart softened into a ball.
He admired her, and felt that her character of persevering and self-defense was very rare, so he came up with the idea of taking care of her. This was just in his heart, and he never told her.
He always thought that she must not know his intentions, that she must think that he kept her because of the original agreement.Unexpectedly, this girl was so smart and sensitive, she could feel his intentions, and she trusted him so much.
This little girl always surprises him, hitting the softest part of his heart when he is caught off guard.Let his emotions get out of control repeatedly, so that he can't deal with it indifferently.
Although he tried his best to control it, the sore feeling in his heart and the spurt in his blood were still clamoring.
This kind of emotion is so strange and so wonderful, it makes him feel a little flustered while being happy.
That's right, since his father passed away, his frozen heart felt flustered for the first time.
Wang Jiulang didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, his eyes as cold as the moon carried many emotions that she couldn't see clearly.
She was sure that he would not be angry this time, but she suddenly took two steps forward, getting closer to him.I don't know if it's because people's six senses are more sensitive at night, she once again smelled the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus on his body, which calmed down her nervous mood.
"Kurang, I don't want to find out what's wrong with you, so don't ask me my secret, okay? Maybe one day, I'll figure it out, and I'll tell you the secret. But before that, please respect me and don't ask me, okay?" ?” Gu Chongyang’s soft voice contained a bit of pleading: “I also believe that one day you will understand it, and you will be willing to let me treat your illness. It’s the same.”
She negotiated terms with him and sent him into the army, which sounds ridiculous.
When did he need to tell her his secret?
He instinctively wanted to sneer, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything. Instead, under her earnest eyes, he nodded slowly: "Okay, I promise you."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was very annoyed and regretted that he lost his concentration in front of a little girl.
"Thank you Jiulang!" Gu Chongyang smiled, his eyes shining brightly: "I knew that Jiulang was reasonable and understanding, and would never force others to make things difficult."
Reasonable and understanding?Is this about him?
Did he think he didn't know she was complimenting him?She really likes to coax people with sweet words?Shen Yucheng was coaxed by her to get whatever she wanted, so he wouldn't be as unprincipled as Shen Yucheng.
He thought so in his heart, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.It's actually pretty good to keep her by your side and be amusing as a kitten or puppy.
(End of this chapter)
"Jiulang!" Gu Chongyang chased after him, and the two stood still under a pine tree: "I really don't understand, you should tell me, otherwise I won't be able to eat and sleep well."
She was telling the truth, and she felt that Wang Jiulang must have had a deep meaning in doing this, and he was not a nosy person.
Her voice was delicate and soft, her big eyes were watery, and she was cuter than the velvet he raised. He resisted the thought of rubbing her head, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
This little girl is too beautiful, too beautiful to refuse.
Picking the corner of his lips lightly, Wang Jiulang said lightly, "It's because of you."
"What?" Gu Chongyang's face turned red all of a sudden, it was so hot that she felt a burning sensation, and she suddenly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Her heart was pounding like thunder, did she hear it wrong?It was because of her that Wang Jiulang helped his uncle's family.This... What does this mean? Is it what she thinks?Could this be true?
She stood there blankly, feeling her whole body was hot, and after a long time she said, "Jiulang, you..."
Wang Jiulang had already walked away, but his indifferent and cold voice reached her ears clearly: "The construction of the public temple has been completed, and the great sacrifice has been successfully completed. In a few days, I will return to the capital. I will leave you alone." In the Wang family, besides letting you be her disciple, there are other purposes, don't you forget our previous agreement?"
What he said was the truth, but she felt as if someone had poured cold water on her head, extinguishing the hot fantasy in her heart.
Gu Chongyang couldn't help but smiled wryly, yes, who is Wang Jiulang, how could he have any thoughts about her, she is really whimsical.
This fact made her slightly depressed, but she quickly regained her composure. They were not from the same world. Her mission was to help Wang Jiulang find out the person who had an affair with Mrs. Baozhen. Wang Jiulang spared her life , she must complete the task, this is her price.
"I haven't forgotten." Gu Chongyang took a deep breath, suppressed all the messy thoughts in his mind, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Jiulang, I will do what I say, and I will definitely fulfill the agreement."
"You care about the Shen family very much, even to the point where you are trembling with fear.

At this moment, his gaze was very sharp, with deep probing, as if he wanted to see through the thoughts in her heart, which was very different from the calm and breezy before.
She was worried that the Shen family would get on King Rong's boat in a daze, and worried that after Wang Jiulang forced King Rong to commit suicide, the Shen family would become a false emperor and be beheaded by all the officials.
But how could she say this?
In the past, she was so anxious that she never said it, but now that her uncle has solved the crisis, there is no possibility of getting involved with King Rong, let alone her.
Gu Chongyang lowered his head and did not speak.

Finally, he bowed to everyone, Gu Chongyang and Dan Xin turned around and boarded the boat together.
Everything on the shore ran back quickly, and the person seeing off gradually turned into a black spot, and gradually, even the Nanjing ferry was no longer visible.

Gu Chongyang looked at her happy face, a thought flashed through his mind, and finally he didn't speak.
This is a big three-story ship. The sailors and boatmen live on the lower floor, the kitchen is on the middle floor, and the servants live on the middle floor.There are seven or eight rooms on the top floor, Wang Jiulang lives in the bow, Madam Baozhen lives in the middle, Gu Chongyang lives in the room at the stern, the other rooms are empty and very clean.
The room is clean and tidy, and the decoration is very beautiful and elegant, even better than ordinary houses of big families.

Yes, after all, it is the boat of Wang Jiulang and Mrs. Baozhen, so it must be very different from ordinary officials.

Gu Chongyang deliberately coaxed Madam Zhen to be happy: "I drank such a good tea today, and I'm surprised by Mr. Wouldn't it be a pity if you can't drink such good tea after you have cultivated the taste?"
Mrs. Baozhen and Nanny Yu looked at each other and smiled: "If you want to drink tea, just come to me. Good tea and good water will keep you close, and I will never wrong your mouth. Just don't belittle yourself and say that you can't do anything else." , I see that you are very good, and your medical skills are even more exquisite."
"I'm a disciple of my husband, so you naturally think that I'm good in everything, but outsiders don't necessarily think so."
"Nonsense!" Mrs. Baozhen said: "I say you are good, you are good, who dares to say that you are not, I will be the first to disobey her!"
After getting along for a few months, Gu Chongyang also knows a lot about Mrs. Baozhen than at the beginning.Mrs. Baozhen is beautiful, proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, has a delicate life, and is good at maintenance, but her heart is very simple. She is not like a woman in her 30s. Her thoughts are often more like those raised in a deep boudoir. little girl.
She loves to be beautiful, to be lively, to be full of flowers, but also to be sad about spring and autumn. Her psychological thoughts are much more childish than Gu Chongyang, sometimes similar to that of Shen Suying.
Gu Chongyang was happy to be loved by Mrs. Baozhen so much, but at the same time felt a little guilty. If Mrs. Baozhen knew that the purpose of approaching her was not pure, she would be very disappointed.
As she thought about it, she heard Madam Yu report: "Master Jiu is here."
Mrs. Baozhen was startled, and immediately stood up. She thought that Wang Jiulang would not come if he refused her like before, but she didn't expect him to come, and she was at a loss for a while, she just stood there and said, "You come here gone."
As soon as Wang Jiulang turned his eyes around the room, he saw Gu Chongyang. She blessed him, and then stood aside.
Seeing her so alienated, Wang Jiulang felt a little bored.
What does she mean by this.He asked her about the Shen family's affairs, but he just wanted to help her. She didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't force it.He wasn't angry with her, but she showed him some face.It's really unreasonable!
Wang Jiulang nodded at Mrs. Baozhen, his face was as usual, but his voice was a little cold: "What's the matter?"
Hearing her son's faint voice, Mrs. Baozhen said a little nervously: "Most of the people on the boat are servants, and the three of us are the masters. I wanted to have dinner together, but I was afraid that you would be too busy. If you are busy, Just keep busy with you, Chongyang and I will be fine, and I will let people use your meals in your room."
"It doesn't need to be so troublesome." Wang Jiulang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Just eat in one place, and there is nothing to be busy on the boat."
When he was talking, his eyes kept falling on Gu Chongyang. Gu Chongyang felt that his gaze was as sharp as a knife, and he was even more reluctant to look up.
Mrs. Baozhen was overjoyed, and excitedly said incoherently: "What you said is that we will have dinner together, and you can tell the kitchen what you want to eat. I remember that you used to like sweet and sour fish the most, and you wanted to eat it without picking thorns." , it gets stuck every time, it's still your father..."
Speaking of this, the conversation stopped abruptly, and the atmosphere was as cold as ice for an instant.
Mrs. Baozhen's face turned pale, her eyes dodged, like a child who has done something wrong, she dared not look into Wang Jiulang's eyes.
Wang Jiulang's face was uglier than hers, he pursed his lips, turned and left without saying anything.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Baozhen cried: "It's all my fault. Let's talk about the past. I was sorry for him in the past, so he treated me better. I poked his wound again. Why did he die? , I would rather be the one who died! If I was the one who died back then, Jiulang wouldn't be so sad. Why didn't I die, why didn't I die?"
Mrs. Baozhen cried sadly, and what she said made Gu Chongyang secretly startled. Wang Jiulang's character is so cold, it was definitely not cultivated in a day. What happened back then?The fact that their mother and son have come to this point is obviously more related to that incident, and could Wang Jiulang's illness also be contracted at that time?
It's really indecent for Mrs. Baozhen to cry like this, but she may have suppressed it for a long time, and it might be a good thing to be able to cry, so she went back to her room.
When Jin Wuxi fell, Madam Yu invited Gu Chongyang to have dinner, Mrs. Baozhen's emotions had already calmed down, but her eyes were red and swollen, but they were not ugly, on the contrary they made her look a little more pitiful.
She really deserves to be a beauty.
I thought that Wang Jiulang would not come because of the unpleasant incident, but he still showed up before dinner, but Wang Jiulang and Mrs. Baozhen ate very little, and the atmosphere was very depressing. After a little meal, I hurried back to my room.
At night, the river beat against the hull, and the sound of wind and water came one after another, which was so clear to my ears.
I don't know if it was because of leaving Nanjing suddenly, Gu Chongyang couldn't fall asleep that night, he just tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep.
Suddenly there was a burst of mysterious vicissitudes of music outside the window, Gu Chongyang listened attentively, and it turned out to be Xun playing the famous song Xinghua Tianying.
At that time, most people liked the zither. I didn't expect that there would be someone on this boat who could play the xun so well.
He couldn't sleep anyway, and the weather wasn't cold, so Gu Chongyang simply put on his clothes and pushed open the door to the boat deck.
The new moon hung in the twilight sky, and Wang Jiulang stood facing the river in white clothes, and the exciting music came out slowly from the xun in his hand.
The sky and the earth are empty, only one person is left in January.
The night wind blew his robe, as if he would go away at any moment.
Gu Chongyang stared blankly for a moment, he was so lonely.
The royal family has been noble for generations, and Jiulang is a single descendant of Wen Guogong. There are not many people who want to get close to him, but she just feels that Jiulang is very lonely, so lonely that no one can walk into his heart.
It's better for her not to disturb him, Gu Chongyang turned around and was about to go back, when the sound of xun suddenly stopped, Wang Jiulang had already seen her.
The four eyes met, and she left immediately if she was not good, so she smiled apologetically: "I wanted to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect to disturb Jiulang Yaxing."
"It doesn't matter." Wang Jiulang said coldly, "Maybe my Xun sound disturbed your lucid dream."
"No." Gu Chongyang immediately said: "The sound of the xun is very nice, and it makes people linger intoxicated. Listening to Jiulang's playing will only make people fall into dreams faster, so why bother talking about dreams."
Wang Jiulang raised his eyebrows: "So, my Xun sound is too boring, it makes people feel drowsy?"
"No, no..." Gu Chongyang wanted to explain in a panic, but found that Wang Jiulang was looking at her with a slight smile on his face. Her gloomy mood suddenly became lighter and her courage became much stronger. He gave Wang Jiulang a look: "You clearly know that I don't mean that, but deliberately misinterpreted me!"
As soon as the words came out, she couldn't help but froze for a moment.This tone of voice is clearly coquettish.I don't know if Wang Jiulang would think her frivolous after hearing this.
The smile on Wang Jiulang's face deepened: "You are much smarter than before."
If someone else said this, Gu Chongyang might be angry.But it was quite different if Wang Jiulang said this, even though Gu Chongyang knew that he was deliberately making fun of her.
She smiled complacently and raised her eyebrows: "Of course, I am also a disciple of my husband after all. I have been studying with my husband for so long, and I have been influenced by my ears and eyes. Naturally, I am getting smarter."
She was like a child who was praised, and Wang Jiulang couldn't help laughing.
When he smiled, the faint gloom between his brows dissipated, and his shining eyes were even brighter and more dazzling than the stars in the sky.
It would be great if Kuro was so happy every day.
In the past few days, he has been keeping a straight face, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Gu Chongyang took a deep breath and decided to have a good talk with Wang Jiulang: "Jiulang, I know that it is for my own good that you asked me about the Shen family. In my eyes. I am not an ungrateful person. You saved the Shen family, which is equivalent to saving me, and I am even more grateful than saving me. Don't say that you asked me a question, you just want my life. I don't even bat an eye."
"It's just that everyone has secrets that they don't want to be known by others. You and I are no exception. Jiulang, you have a physical illness, but you don't want others to know. I have secrets that are hard to tell just like you. Many things, I don't say it's not me I don't want to, but because I can't say it, I believe you can understand Jiulang, if you talk about trust, besides my mother and uncle, the person I trust the most in this world is Jiulang."
Wang Jiulang didn't expect her to say such a thing.
Her mother has passed away, and her uncle is far away in Nanjing. The only one she can trust in the future is him!
His breathing became heavy uncontrollably, his heart beat a few times faster, and his heart softened into a ball.
He admired her, and felt that her character of persevering and self-defense was very rare, so he came up with the idea of taking care of her. This was just in his heart, and he never told her.
He always thought that she must not know his intentions, that she must think that he kept her because of the original agreement.Unexpectedly, this girl was so smart and sensitive, she could feel his intentions, and she trusted him so much.
This little girl always surprises him, hitting the softest part of his heart when he is caught off guard.Let his emotions get out of control repeatedly, so that he can't deal with it indifferently.
Although he tried his best to control it, the sore feeling in his heart and the spurt in his blood were still clamoring.
This kind of emotion is so strange and so wonderful, it makes him feel a little flustered while being happy.
That's right, since his father passed away, his frozen heart felt flustered for the first time.
Wang Jiulang didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, his eyes as cold as the moon carried many emotions that she couldn't see clearly.
She was sure that he would not be angry this time, but she suddenly took two steps forward, getting closer to him.I don't know if it's because people's six senses are more sensitive at night, she once again smelled the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus on his body, which calmed down her nervous mood.
"Kurang, I don't want to find out what's wrong with you, so don't ask me my secret, okay? Maybe one day, I'll figure it out, and I'll tell you the secret. But before that, please respect me and don't ask me, okay?" ?” Gu Chongyang’s soft voice contained a bit of pleading: “I also believe that one day you will understand it, and you will be willing to let me treat your illness. It’s the same.”
She negotiated terms with him and sent him into the army, which sounds ridiculous.
When did he need to tell her his secret?
He instinctively wanted to sneer, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything. Instead, under her earnest eyes, he nodded slowly: "Okay, I promise you."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was very annoyed and regretted that he lost his concentration in front of a little girl.
"Thank you Jiulang!" Gu Chongyang smiled, his eyes shining brightly: "I knew that Jiulang was reasonable and understanding, and would never force others to make things difficult."
Reasonable and understanding?Is this about him?
Did he think he didn't know she was complimenting him?She really likes to coax people with sweet words?Shen Yucheng was coaxed by her to get whatever she wanted, so he wouldn't be as unprincipled as Shen Yucheng.
He thought so in his heart, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.It's actually pretty good to keep her by your side and be amusing as a kitten or puppy.
