Working part-time as a wife is too busy

Chapter 22 Meeting Zhang Xiao Again
"It's okay, take your time!" Gu Xiaoya didn't blame Xuemei, and it wasn't her fault. Although Xuemei had a good heart, she was not good at housekeeping. It seemed that she would have to find an expert in this field in the future.

After breakfast the next day, Gu Xiaoya planned to go to the farm and the shop, but Mr. Rong hurriedly stopped her, for no other reason. He had just received a letter that something serious happened to the Guan family. Pin your hopes on her.

"Old man, what do you want me to do with you at the Guan family?" Could it be that the old man Rong is in a hurry to borrow money from the Guan family because of the military pay?But Gu Xiaoya doesn't look like her no matter what.

"Go save people, I'll tell you in detail on the way!" Gu Xiaoya had already told herself that she was good at medicine, and the old man thought that maybe she was the only one who could save his old friend's life now.

Gu Xiaoya used to be a soldier who defended her home and country. She knew very well that a general who can be a general like Mr. Rong has a very scheming strategy, and she won't trust others easily, but why does he trust herself so much? ability without questioning whether you have ulterior motives?
Is it because she was confused by old man Rong's kindness that she couldn't see the essence clearly, or is it that old man Rong is just such a hot-tempered, straightforward and straightforward old man?Gu Xiaoya who was sitting in the carriage was also confused.

The residence of Duke Huguo is about half a street away from the Rong family of the Grand General's residence in the imperial capital, and the carriage will arrive in half an hour at a fast speed.

However, after Mr. Rong and Gu Xiaoya got off the carriage, they found that the Duke Huguo's mansion was surrounded by guards from nowhere.The most astonishing thing was that the servants of the Duke Protector's Mansion started to hang a white funeral cloth at the gate.

The old man Rong was startled, he took two quick steps and said to himself: "Could it be that something happened to old man Guan?"

I was about to enter the mansion in a hurry, but was stopped by the guards: "The prison department is arresting the repeat criminals, no one else is allowed to enter!"

"Presumptuous, this old man is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Even the emperor's imperial guards dare not stop this old man. What kind of onion are you? Get out of the way!" Mr. Rong was even more annoyed when he was stopped by the guards rudely. shouted.

The guard at the gate froze. As we all know, there was only one commander-in-chief of the Great Qin Dynasty who went out without a guard, and that was Mr. Rong, who was too poor. I heard that he returned to the emperor's capital to recuperate years ago. Could it be the one in front of him?
Thinking of this, the guard's face became terrified, and he didn't dare to stop him. Deputy Envoy Zhang was certainly terrifying, but the old man of the Rong family was even more to be offended.

The old man Rong only brought Gu Xiaoya with him when he went out this time. He was born in the general family, and the Rong family never cared about the red tape and the rules of the famous family.

"What's going on here?" Old Master Rong strode into the open front door of Duke Protector's Mansion, and the faces of the servants who hung white cloths were all mournful.

"Reporting to old general Rong, the wife of my eldest son died of dystocia, and the servants are setting up a mourning hall." A servant of Duke Huguo's mansion said with red eyes.

Mr. Rong quickened his pace and walked towards the main courtyard, only to find that Zhang Xiao, the Deputy Envoy of the Prison Division, was confronting the guards of the Duke of the Protectorate's Mansion with his people. Ms. Guan Jiayao is the direct granddaughter of Grandpa Laoguo.

"Zhang Xiao, you broke into my Duke Huguo's mansion today and humiliated my Guan family so much. I will definitely ask you to pay back with blood!" Those who are not pleasing to the eye, Zhang Xiao led troops into the mansion today when the Guan family is so sad, it is really deceiving.

Zhang Xiao snorted coldly, he is not a person who does not know the importance, although his official position is not high, but he is the favorite minister in front of the emperor, not to mention that he is holding a jade card given by the emperor himself, let alone the Duke of the Protectorate, He can go in and search even the inner courtyard of the palace.

"Miss Guan, this officer is ordered by the emperor to capture the rebels. Get out of the way quickly, and don't interfere with my work!" Zhang Xiao has already explained clearly to the people in the Duke Huguo's mansion. He has received accurate information. The traitor ran into the Duke Protector's Mansion, and it was his duty to capture the imperial court's criminals. He only hoped that the people in the Duke Protector's Mansion would cooperate with the search.

It's just that he came at a very unlucky time, just at the time when the wife of the eldest son of the Huguo Gongfu had a dystocia and died, but he was also responsible, so he could only bite the bullet and complete the task assigned by the emperor.

"Get out of the way!" Mr. Rong was already in good health, his angry roar made Zhang Xiao and the guards take two or three steps back in fright, even the less timid ones couldn't hold the knife steadily.

Guan Jiayao and the guards behind her were also taken aback. No one expected that Mr. Rong would come to the Huguogong Mansion at this time, and at this time the eldest son of the Huguogong Mansion was personally carrying his wife with a few servants in white clothes. The coffin, with a haggard and sad face, came to the main hall of the mourning hall.

"Old General, please, my master is waiting for you in the backyard." The old housekeeper of the Duke Huguo Mansion trotted to the front yard as soon as he heard that Mr. Rong had arrived. After standing still, he said coldly to Zhang Xiao and the others, "My lord Zhang, the Duke Huguo's Mansion is saddened by the loss of his wife and the unborn young master. If you are determined to bring bad luck to the Duke Huguo's Mansion here today, don't blame the Duke Huguo's Mansion for being merciless."

After finishing speaking, the old butler led Mr. Rong and Gu Xiaoya to the backyard, but no one noticed that when Gu Xiaoya left, she carefully looked at the fine nanmu coffin.

When they arrived in the backyard, Gu Xiaoya heard a lot of weeping, and then she and Mr. Rong were led into a wing room. The old man, old lady, and Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Guo were all sitting in the room in grief. middle.

"Old man Guan, why did this happen? Sigh, you are so sad!" Few people knew that Mr. Rong and Mr. Guan had a life-threatening friendship.

Seeing that old man Rong rushed over non-stop after receiving his letter, old man Guan felt extremely relieved, and now this old brother is the only one he can confide in.

"Brother, you came a step too late. You didn't see Wan girl and my unborn great-grandson for the last time. Sin... Sin!" Mr. Guan could hold back his grief in front of his old wife, son, and daughter-in-law. , Seeing Mr. Rong, I couldn't bear the pain in my heart.

"Guan old man, alas, the world is impermanent, Wan girl's life is bitter, and I see that boy Qi is also heartbroken, you have to hold on!" Mr. Rong walked directly in front of Mr. Guan, and the two old men held each other tightly. Together, it seems to comfort each other.
