Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 249
Looking back at Gu Zhong, Gu Yong couldn't even speak at all, "Knife? Why is he carrying a knife?!"

At that time, he remembered that the lowly maid was accompanied by a man, but with a knife?

These days, not everyone can go out with guards with knives, and if they are too flamboyant, they will be investigated by the government.Why did that lowly maid dare to come to the door with a knife?

This—is a made up mind, he will not give up until he is forced to death!
Shivering, listening to Gu Zhong say that the two guards with knives looked very imposing, it felt like the sky was getting dark.

Stopping his steps, he was a little out of breath, "Go and tell them, just say that I'm not at home, and let them come back another day."

Gu Zhong blinked his eyes and thought to himself, did his family's senior officials offend those two distinguished guests?Why don't we see each other!
Although he felt strange, he didn't dare to ask more questions, Gu Zhong ran to the front in a hurry, said with a smile that his family's senior officials were not at home, and asked the distinguished guest to come back another day.

Su Jingchun just smiled, but Gu Sixiao looked at Gu Zhong, "Is your senior official not at home? Where did he go? Academy or somewhere else? At this moment, there isn't any brothel open in the county, right? I think it's not that he's not at home, but he's huddled in the Muchun Courtyard, right? You go and tell your senior officials that he won't come today, and I won't leave. If he doesn't come out again, I'll go straight in. It is also possible to find him in the backyard."

Wow!Is this a noble guest or a villain?Want to go into the backyard?
Gu Zhong still wanted to speak, but unexpectedly, Su Zhu snorted coldly outside, the nine-ring sword in his hand trembled twice, the steel ring jingled, and Gu Zhong's feet went limp all of a sudden.

Not having the guts to say anything else to Gu Sixiao, Gu Zhong turned around and ran back to the backyard with a smile.

Back at Muchun Courtyard, seeing Gu Yong who was fidgeting, Gu Zhong said cautiously: "Officer, I don't think those two people are easy to mess with, and that little lady said that if you don't go out to see her today, she won't leave." ——She knows you are in Muchun Courtyard!"

"How does she know?" Gu Yong realized just after he yelled halfway.

That's right, that dead girl was a girl of his family before, so she naturally knew what he was like.

It's really troublesome, was that lowly maid in the past also so insidious and ruthless?

After thinking about it, it's still the same as after being frightened in Beijing. I can only think of the baby's biological mother, when that girl Caiyi died, and that girl shouted loudly in the yard, "My aunt is dead".

Later, he sent that girl to Mr. Su, which can be regarded as finding a good way out for her. Why is that girl so kind and revengeful?
If it wasn't for him, would she have followed Mr. Su to become a master?I really don't know what that girl was thinking, he was kind to her, but she didn't want to reciprocate, instead she said that she was a member of Fan Wang Gu's family and wanted to seek justice.I'm really out of my mind, after learning how to make a fan with that old man for a few days, I became that Gu family member? !
Damn!Still bullying the door!

As soon as his eyes rolled, Gu Yong suddenly had an idea, "You tell them to wait, I'll see how long they can wait, if they really wait for a long time, when I come back from the high officials, they will suffer a lot!"

With a flick of his sleeves, Gu Yong turned around and left. Gu Zhong was stunned for a long time before he turned to the front yard helplessly, but this time, he could do as much as he could, and finally returned to the hall suddenly, two quarters had passed .

It's a pity that he didn't get what he wanted even though he tried hard, the two villains were still sitting leisurely in the living room, drinking tea and gossiping.

Carefully said that the senior officials were really not at home, Gu Zhongsheng was afraid that he would be beaten, but he did not expect the little lady to laugh, "It doesn't matter if your senior officials are not there, your wife is always here! Anyway, this matter , your wife also needs to know."

Gu Zhong made a bitter face, "My mistress is ill and has been bedridden for more than ten days. I'm really sorry, little lady, there really is no master to greet you two."

"You don't need to say hello! Since your mistress is ill, I should go to see you."

Gu Sixiao stood up, smiled and said, "I'll go to the backyard to see your mistress."

"This is impossible..." Gu Zhong wanted to stop him.

But Gu Sixiao shouted in a low voice: "Shantian! You open the way ahead, I want to see who dares to stop me!"

Gu Zhong really didn't dare to stop a nine-ringed broadsword to clear the way.

He ran out of the hall in a flash, and he went to greet the staff.Gu Sixiao ignored it and walked straight to the backyard.

She is familiar with the old house of the Gu family, even if no one leads the way, she can find it.

The Gu family is really deserted now, the second door is only ajar, and there is not even a woman who looks after the door.

When he got to the backyard, Gu Sixiao felt even more defeated.

Although it is late autumn, there are many fallen leaves. In the past, no matter how many fallen leaves there were, some servants would have swept them clean, but now, along the way, there are many dead leaves rolling on the ground with the breeze, and the branches are also covered. It was full of broken branches and leaves, if Gu Sixiao didn't know that there were people living here, Gu Sixiao would have thought it was an abandoned garden!

When approaching the main courtyard, Gu Zhong finally rushed over with a few remnants and weak generals, but these few were not enough to see.

With a loud shout, Su Zhu slashed out heavily with the nine-ring broadsword in his hand, chopping down a willow tree the size of a bowl.

The few servants who were still whistling to come forward immediately retreated. If Gu Zhong hadn't suppressed the formation, they might have run away.

Gu Sixiao smiled, and said loudly: "Gu Zhong, go and tell your mistress that I have a deed written by Gu Yong in my hand. He has already sold this house to me. I am here today. Take over the house!"

Hearing this for a moment, Gu Zhong blinked and couldn't believe it.

"You go and say it now, if this is the case, and your mistress still refuses to see me, then I will start to drive people out one by one!"

Startled, Gu Zhong scrambled and ran towards the main courtyard, not paying attention to what was behind him. Those old family members backed down one after another, allowing Gu Sixiao and others to follow him all the way to the main courtyard.

He stumbled and almost fell at the door, Gu Zhong shouted at the top of his voice, "Ma'am, it's not good, someone is here to take over the house."

"Ahem..." There was a coughing sound from the inner room, but there was no answer.

A girl turned around and stared at Gu Zhong with a frown, "Gu Guanshi, what are you talking about? What are you taking over the house? Alright, who will take over the house?"

"Sister Wanrou, you don't know. There are two vicious guests with knives. They say they want to take over the house. Ah, what kind of deed did we high officials write to sell the house to her?"

Wanrou was also startled when she heard that, she turned around and hurried into the inner room, after a while, a woman with a benign look came out.

"The officials sold this house? Did you see the deed? Where is he now?"

Three questions in a row were asked clearly, but Gu Zhong didn't quite understand the answers, and just kept pointing out.

The woman lifted her foot to go out, and before she could go down the steps, she saw someone walking into the yard.

Startled, she hurriedly turned around and said in a low voice, "Why did you let the outsider in?"

Gu Zhong groaned in his heart, and said in his heart that I didn't let him in, this person has a knife, who dares to block it?

After entering the courtyard, Gu Sixiao was also slightly startled when he saw the woman coming out of the main room.

"Aunt Feng," why is she here?

After hearing Gu Sixiao's greeting, Aunt Feng was also surprised, she looked at Gu Sixiao intently, she was a little strange, but she didn't know who this young lady was.

She looks a bit kind, but she doesn't know such a well-dressed little lady.

Aunt Feng was thinking about it, but she suddenly heard someone screaming beside her: "Hua'er?! Is that you? Hua'er!"

Looking away, Gu Sixiao looked at Wanrou who was walking behind Aunt Feng, and smiled, "Sister Wanrou, long time no see."

Although she heard Gu Sixiao's words, Wanrou's eyes widened, she couldn't believe that this was really a painting.

That painting that was given away by a high official? !She turned into such a magnificent little lady, dressed so beautifully, so good-looking, she had never seen any little lady dressed so luxuriously, and the lady of the Gu family couldn't even compare.

Swallowing, she subconsciously pulled down the corner of her clothes, she was a little uneasy, "Hua'er, it's really you! You, come to see my lady?"

"That's right," Gu Sixiao smiled, "I'm here to collect the house besides looking at the lady. I also ask the lady to come out to see her and show the house deed, so that we can go to the Yamen to get the red deed."

Her eyes widened, Wanrou was stunned for a long time before she understood what Gu Sixiao said.

"You are the one who took over the house?"

She was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say, and after a while, she turned and went back into the room.

Aunt Feng was also surprised by this accident, she looked at Gu Sixiao for a long time before saying: "It turns out that you are the one next to Aunt Caiyi..."

Gu Sixiao nodded, still having a good impression of this honest woman.

"Is Aunt Feng taking care of Mrs. Zhang? I didn't expect..."

Everyone knows why Aunt Feng's child is gone.

In this way, he can come to take care of Mrs. Zhang, and it is really rare to repay a grudge with kindness.

Hearing what Gu Sixiao said, Aunt Feng didn't speak, but for some reason, she lowered her head and remained silent.

Wanrou turned around, looked at Gu Sixiao nervously, and said in a low voice: "My lady, please come in."

Gu Sixiao nodded, looked back at Su Jingchun, and said, "Shantian and Su Zhu stay at the door."

Only bringing Qiao'er into the room, Gu Sixiao stopped at the door, took the opportunity to glance at the furnishings in the room, but frowned lightly.

Her guess seemed to be correct, not to mention the garden outside, even in Mrs. Zhang's house, many of the decorations she remembered were gone.

I don't know whether it is not good-looking, or it is simply taken out and sold.

The Gu family is in charge of the family business, and now that the Gu family has fallen like this, it seems that Zhang is really seriously ill.

Raising her head, she looked at the thin woman leaning on the couch, and for a moment she didn't recognize that it was Mrs. Zhang.

Although Mrs. Zhang is not very fat, she is still plump. How could she be so thin?
Gu Sixiao just found it strange, but Su Jingchun raised his eyebrows.

Leaning his face away, he whispered in Gu Sixiao's ear: "It's not a disease, it's a poison!"
