Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 218 Mother and Daughter
Gu Sixiao also saw the man clearly at this moment, and couldn't help turning her eyes to the woman in plain clothes.

That, is Mu Zihua's wife? !That is, the girl's mother? !

The first thought was that she looked like this.

She looks gentle and elegant, and she is the typical lady of the big family.Just looking at her from a distance, you can feel that she is a very gentle woman.

Perhaps this is why Xue Wen admires her?
Gu Sixiao thought this way in her heart, and suddenly felt that some aspects of Aunt Yun actually resembled the lady in front of her...

Shaking her head, she didn't dare to think anymore.

But before she could turn around and walk away, Mu Zihua had already walked over.

Seeing Mu Zihua approaching, Gu Sixiao was startled, and subconsciously looked into the distance.

Mrs. Mu was looking this way, her eyes met, she nodded with a smile.

Feeling flustered for no reason, Gu Sixiao turned her head, looked at Mu Zihua, and saluted, "Lord Mu..."

Looking at Gu Sixiao with a complicated expression, Mu Zihua hesitated and said: "That is my wife, she——she had a daughter before, so every time it comes to the Ghost Festival, she has to be for her daughter, and... ..."

Having said this, Mu Zihua's words became somewhat vague, and he just said: "Sacrifice and pray for them."

It turned out that the river lantern was set up for General Lin and the girl...

Gu Sixiao turned her head away unconsciously, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

Seeing this, Mu Zihua felt that his guess was right.

Taking a deep breath, he said in a deep voice: "My wife, her name is Peony, so many of her jewelry and accessories have peony patterns, especially jewelry. In her jewelry box, there are many Jewelry carved similar to your fan pendant is carved with peonies..."

After saying this, Mu Zihua seemed to relax.There is nothing to hide, and he said directly: "I saw that fan pendant before, and I doubted it. Later, I found someone to investigate, although I still can't be sure, but I think you should be the one we all thought was dead. That kid!"

Gu Sixiao was silent for a moment, and then said: "Master Mu, you misunderstood, I can't even understand what you are talking about."

"Why don't you understand? The little lady is also a smart person, there is really no need to go around in circles like this..."

"Smart man?" Gu Sixiao turned his head, looked at Mu Zihua, and smiled slightly, "Master Mu, you just said that the dead child was born to my wife and her former husband, right?"

Without speaking, Mu Zihua just remained silent.

Gu Sixiao didn't care too much, and still asked: "Now you and your wife sing together, you are extremely affectionate, and you also have children under your knees. If a child really suddenly appears, what will the adults do? What will outsiders say? How can the lady be herself?" place?"

Three questions in a row made Mu Zihua even more silent.

Naturally, he had thought about these things, and because he had thought about it, he didn't tell his wife about it immediately, but asked someone to investigate, even if the investigation revealed something, he didn't talk about it.

Why didn't you tell your wife about it?He actually knew it very well.

Looking at Mu Zihua's expression, Gu Sixiao knew that he had guessed right.

Mu Zihua looked gentle, but he never thought of recognizing her.

That's right, even if the atmosphere is more open now, widows are not prohibited from remarrying, but if they pass through the door with a bottle of oil, they will inevitably be irritated and made irresponsible remarks.

What's more, she is still an oil bottle who is said to have been dead for many years.

It was easy to recognize her, but the things to be faced afterwards were complicated.

Mu Zihua is not a kind person who has been able to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites all the way. Naturally, he will consider himself and the Mu family first, which is also human nature.

However, Gu Sixiao knew very well in her heart that she was so considerate and considerate only because she never thought about recognizing her own mother.

Only when she has nothing to do with herself can she be neutral. If she is really a girl, she must be very sad at this moment.

Lowering her eyes, Gu Sixiao said lightly: "I think Madam misses her deceased relatives, but she may not be unhappy. If so, why bother to dwell on the past? Lord Mu, let her rest in peace when she dies." ..."

His eyes flickered, Mu Zihua looked at Gu Sixiao, his eyes couldn't hide his surprise.

He really never thought that this little lady would say such a thing.

But that's fine too.

The corner of his mouth curled up, and he said with a faint smile: "Young lady is right, you shouldn't get entangled in the past. Besides, the little lady is very happy now - although she has not changed her surname to Xue, she is still the daughter of the Xue family after all."

Gu Sixiao smiled lightly, but did not answer.

The smile on the corner of his mouth was slightly restrained, and Mu Zihua also felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to leave, but he still smiled and said: "Well, little lady, do you want to meet my wife in the past?"

He raised his head and looked over, just in time to see a fourteen or five year old girl throwing herself into Mrs. Mu's arms with a smile.

She pounced so hard that Madam Mu staggered and almost fell, but she still held the girl tightly with her hands.

She didn't blame her, she just reproached her softly, the girl didn't care, she raised her head, said a few words, and laughed like a silver bell.

Hearing the laughter, Gu Sixiao also smiled, "It's better not to bother Madam, Mrs. Mu, Madam is waiting for you to go back!"

Mu Zihua turned his head, a smile immediately appeared on his face, he turned to look at Gu Sixiao, he hesitated for a while, and said: "If you have any difficulties, you can come to my official, if you can help, I will definitely help. "

"Thank you, Master Mu," Gu Sixiao smiled slightly, gave a salute, and watched Mu Zihua turn back.

Looking at Madam tenderly, he said something in a low voice, and Madam who was a bit disgusted at first, immediately laughed.

The girl even pulled Mu Zihua's sleeve directly, acting coquettishly without any scruples.

Looking at the family of three from a distance, Gu Sixiao slowly turned her head and pressed her chest lightly.

It seems a little sour, but seeing her live so happily is already very good—isn't it?girl!
Although the maid told her to stay by the lake, Gu Sixiao didn't want to stay here when she suddenly met the three members of the Mu family.

Turning around, she walked slowly along the path, and vaguely heard the sound of singing and dancing ahead.

There seemed to be a young man's voice, Gu Sixiao stopped and leaned carefully behind the bushes.

"Don't drink too much. Although His Majesty said that tonight is informal, but after all, it is a sacrificial meeting. What should I do if I get drunk like mud?"

Looking from a distance, it was a flower pavilion with no tables, a few men sat on the ground, holding on to the jug, with a free and easy demeanor, very casual.

"What's the point of drinking some wine? You didn't see Zheng Shizi just now, but just drink and eat Wushi powder..."

"Still talking! Pengzi, if you hadn't mentioned the five-stone powder just now, how could the prince use it in the palace?"

"Hey, talk about me again, why don't you talk about our boss... Okay, okay, it's my fault..."

That one muttered and complained: "Just now the boss gave the son wine!"

"I respect the prince and work hard for the prince wholeheartedly. I am a loyal man."

The young man who had not spoken all this time made a sound, and Gu Sixiao immediately recognized that it was Sun Tiancang.

Why did he get together with Zheng Xuan and toast him?

Frowning, Gu Sixiao thought about it and felt something was wrong.

She wouldn't believe that Sun Tiancang took refuge in Zheng Xuan, that means he also participated in Su Jingchun's plan?

What kind of plan was it to bring Sun Tiancang in?
Pursing her lips tightly, Gu Sixiao didn't dare to listen any more, turned around and left quietly.

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

How to deal with Zheng Xuan in the inner courtyard of the deep palace? !What kind of plan does Su Jingchun have?
His mind was in a mess, Gu Sixiao didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he didn't know where he was.

It's also because there are too many imperial gardens, and there are flowers and trees everywhere. She looked around, but she couldn't tell where she came from.

From a distance, I saw a cornice, although I didn't know where it was, but Gu Sixiao hesitated for a while, and walked there.

The flowers and trees are lush, and an octagonal pavilion can be seen vaguely. Gu Sixiao was about to walk there, but suddenly felt someone approaching behind her, and she was startled.

Before she could react, someone covered her mouth, "Don't call—"

The voice was very familiar, it was Sun Tiancang.

Gu Sixiao's heart relaxed, and she turned her head to look, only to see Sun Tiancang's cold side face.

Blinking, she pushed Sun Tiancang hard, motioning him to let go.

Sun Tiancang did not let go, but covered her mouth even tighter.

Gu Sixiao was a little angry and still struggling, but Sun Tiancang had already dragged her to the back of the bushes.

Because of his actions, Gu Sixiao was a little vigilant, and followed Sun Tiancang's gaze to look in the direction of the Bajiao Pavilion.

No one was seen, but a scream was heard.

It was a woman's scream, screaming miserably, as if she was suffering from great pain.

Gu Sixiao was startled, her eyes widened, she turned her head and stared at Sun Tiancang.

Although he didn't know what happened, Sun Tiancang must have seen something, or knew what happened.

Facing Gu Sixiao's gaze, Sun Tiancang pursed his lips, but did not speak.

Gu Sixiao pushed and hit him silently, motioning for him to let go.Sun Tiancang was completely indifferent.

Very angry, Gu Sixiao turned his head to look, and vaguely saw a figure in a purple gown.

"Bitch! Disobedient! I told you to be disobedient..." A voice distorted and distorted due to excitement yelled loudly.

I don't know what she did again, the woman screamed and howled, making Gu Sixiao's hairs stand on end.

No longer pushing and beating Sun Tiancang, Gu Sixiao shivered all over, feeling cold from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet.

Even though the tone of the voice had changed, she could still hear it.

That's Zheng Xuan!

Just don't know who that woman is.

Zheng Xuan!Five stones scattered!woman!
Suddenly, she knew Su Jingchun's plan.

It turned out that it was like this—it turned out to be like this...

With trembling lips, Gu Sixiao stared fixedly at the octagonal pavilion hidden behind the flowers and trees. Although she couldn't see what was going on inside, she still felt that it was like hell, terrifying and inexplicable.
