Chapter 193 Something strange

Shi Yamei glanced at Li Tao angrily, turned around and returned to the carriage, asking: "Xiaoyu, did you hear Mr. Liu say this? Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?"

When Gu Huayu heard the woman's words, her heart felt like it was hit by a heavy object. She felt a dull pain. Her limbs were so weak that she had no strength at all. Her chest was tight and she was a little breathless. Her eyes were staring blankly ahead.

Hearing Shi Yanmei's voice, Gu Huayu came back to her senses and waved her hands with a pale face, "Nothing, I had a stomach bug just now and I feel a little uncomfortable."

Shi Yamei held Gu Huayu's hand and said, "Xiaoyu, your hands are so cold and your face is so pale. Is that okay? Otherwise, let's go back."

Gu Huayu covered her chest with her hands and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Yamei, I'm afraid I can't be with you today."

Shi Yamei said hurriedly: "It's okay. You can go shopping anytime. You are not feeling well. Let's go back first and ask the doctor to come and take a look."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay! Thank you Yamei."

Shi Yamei raised her voice and said to Li Tao: "Li Er, Xiaoyu has a stomachache. Turn around and go back quickly."

As soon as Qingyu heard that Gu Huayu had stomach trouble, he quickly opened the curtain and asked worriedly: "Miss, is it important?"

Li Tao looked over and said, "Look at her face, it's as white as a dead person. Is it okay? Hurry up and drive back."

Qingyu jumped out of the car, led the horse to turn the car around, and raised his voice to beg the people around him to give way.

Gu Huayu felt so sad that she simply closed her eyes.

Shi Yamei saw the dense sweat on Gu Huayu's forehead, wiped it gently with a handkerchief, and said with concern: "Xiaoyu, please be patient for now, we will be home soon."

 After speaking, Shi Yamei said to Li Tao: "Li Er, I will send Xiaoyu back to Wutong Lane first, and you can go and ask the doctor to come over."

Li Tao nodded and said, "Okay, you go back first, and I will bring the doctor over later."

Li Tao jumped out of the car and asked about the medical center.

Qingyu drove back to Wutong Lane. Su Er was about to go out. He stopped and asked, "Qingyu, why are you back? Where is the lady?"

Qingyu said: "Second brother, the young lady is sick. The younger one will send the young lady back."

Su Er asked in panic: "Miss, is she sick? Why is she sick? Hurry open the door and let the car in."

 The concierge hurriedly opened the door, and Qingyu drove the car into the house.

Su Er followed the car into the house and asked, "You were fine when you left home, why are you sick?"

Qingyu replied while parking the car, "The lady said she had a stomachache and her face turned pale in pain."

Su Er raised his voice and said, "Han Shi, go ask the doctor. The lady is sick."

Qingyu hurriedly said: "Second Young Master Li has already gone to ask for the doctor."

When Wang Qin, Shi Niang, and Liu Ma heard the sound, they all put down their work and hurried over.

Wang Qin opened the curtain and jumped into the car, took Gu Huayu from Shi Yamei's hand, and carried her to the backyard.

Liu Ma followed Wang Qin to the backyard.

Shi Niang bent her knees towards Shi Yamei and said, "Thank you Miss Shi today."

Shi Yamei shook his head and said apologetically: "If I hadn't asked Xiaoyu to go shopping, Xiaoyu wouldn't have gone out today. Speaking of which, it's also my fault."

Shi Niang said: "Our lady has been weak since she was a child. Although she has gotten better these years, she still gets sick occasionally. Miss Shi does not need to blame herself. Miss Shi, please come in and have a cup of tea."

 Speaking, Shi Niang led Shi Yamei to the living room.

Shi Yamei looked at the direction Gu Huayu left and followed Shi Niang to the living room.

Just a few steps away, I saw Li Tao and the doctor hurrying into the courtyard and shouted: "Li Er, this way."

Qingyu ran over to help the doctor carry the medical box, leaned forward and said, "Doctor, please come this way."

Qingyu led the doctor to Gu Huayu's small courtyard. Li Tao held his hands and knees and panted. After he recovered, he straightened up and walked towards Shi Yamei and asked, "How's it going?"

Shi Yamei shook his head and said: "Xiaoyu has been sweating on her forehead and shivering, as if she is in severe pain."

Shi Niang bent her knees towards the two of them and said, "You two, please come and sit in the room."

Li Tao nodded and said to Shi Yamei: "Go inside and wait."

Gu Huayu nestled in Wang Qin's arms, tears rolling down her face.

Wang Qin looked down and saw it, her heart tightened, and she said to Liu Ma: "Miss, she didn't have breakfast this morning, so she has a stomachache. Go get a bowl of porridge."

Liu Ma nodded repeatedly and turned to the kitchen.

After leaving Liu Ma, Wang Qin put Gu Huayu on the soft couch and asked softly: "Miss, what's wrong?"

Gu Huayu leaned on the soft couch, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and said, "The doctor is here, let the doctor come in."

Wang Qin stood up. Su Er, Qing Yu led the doctor in.

The doctor checked Gu Huayu's pulse, asked some questions about daily life, and prescribed a prescription. Su Er asked Qing Yu to send the doctor out and grab the medicine.

After the doctor left, Gu Huayu opened her eyes and said to Su Er: "Go tell Miss Shi and Li Tao that I didn't have breakfast this morning and I have a stomach problem.

 The doctor has already taken a look at her, and there is no serious problem, so she told them not to worry. Treat me some other time and apologize to you two. "

Su Er nodded in agreement, bowed and stepped back.

Gu Huayu looked at Wang Qin and begged: "Aunt Wang, don't ask anything, okay?"

Wang Qin nodded, "Okay, don't ask me anything. Miss, I promise, you have to be nice!"

Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay, you go outside and guard, don't let anyone come in, I want to be alone."

Wang Qin leaned down and said, "Okay, I'll be outside. If you have any orders, Miss, just call me."

Wang Qin retreated to the outside. Soon, Su Er came over and looked at Wang Qin in surprise. Want to ask questions.

Wang Qin put her hand up to her mouth to signal him to silence, and then whispered: "The lady said she wanted to be quiet."

Su Er glanced at the room, sat down opposite Wang Qin, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you have a stomachache, Miss?"

Wang Qin nodded, pointed at her eyes with her fingers, and said softly: "Miss cried just now, she looked very sad."

Su Er was stunned and looked at Wang Qin with wide eyes. In the years he has been with the young lady, he has never seen her cry.

Wang Qin continued: "We have never seen Miss cry before. Something must have happened today. Ren Dong went out with Miss. You go and ask Li Dong."

Su Er understood, got up and walked out.

 In the room, Gu Huayu was nestled on the soft couch, thinking silently in her heart, Lu Ziqin, I give you one day, you'd better give me an explanation.

 Gu Huayu waited from day to night, but didn't see Lu Ziqin's figure, or even said a word.

Gu Huayu sighed, I'll give you one more night.

In the study room in the outer courtyard, Hua Da asked, "Do you know why the lady is sick?"

Qing Yu nodded, "The young man drove to the intersection of Zhuquemen Street and met the team of the British Duke delivering betrothal gifts to the Prime Minister's Palace. It was said that the Sixth Master of the British Duke's Palace wanted to marry the Third Lady of the Prime Minister's Palace, and the decision was made today. "

Hua Da and Su Er looked at each other and said, "I know, you can go down. Keep your mouth shut. If anyone asks, just say that the lady has a stomach problem."

Qingyu bowed and said, "I understand, little one."

After Qing Yu retreated, Su Er asked: "What should we do next? Catch Lu Liu and beat him up?"

Hua Da said, "Don't be rash. Wait and listen to the lady."

Su Er stopped talking.

Gu Huayu opened her eyes and focused on the outside of the wall, carefully identifying the sounds of passing footsteps.

"Miss, you haven't eaten for a long time. Mother Liu has cooked porridge and brought it in for you? How much can you eat?" Wang Qin asked outside the door.

Gu Huayu didn't want everyone to worry, so she nodded and said, "Okay!"

Wang Qin brought the porridge in, and Gu Huayu ate most of the bowl of porridge. Said: "Okay, let's go down."

Wang Qin put the bowl on the tray without any intention of leaving.

 Gu Huayu raised her head and looked at her. Wang Qin said: "Miss, Master Lu Liu..."

“Aunt Wang, I don’t want to talk today, so you don’t have to worry about me. I promise, I’ll be fine after tonight. You’ve been out all day, go back and rest.”

Wang Qin sighed, "Okay, I won't bother you, Miss."

Wang Qin exited the house and walked to the corridor. Hua Da asked, "How was it?"

Wang Qin shook her head, "Miss doesn't want to say more, so we don't have to worry about her. Give her one more night and she will be fine tomorrow."

Hua Da sighed and said, "Listen to Miss, go back and have a rest."

Wang Qin shook his head, "I can't sleep even when I go back, so I'll stay here to watch. You have a lot of things to do tomorrow, so go and have a rest."

Hua Da thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "Thank you for your hard work!"

Gu Huayu leaned on the soft couch and murmured: "Lu Ziqin, I'll give you one more night, don't let me down!"

 In the following time, Gu Huayu waited expectantly for the footsteps to approach, and then listened to the footsteps leaving with disappointment.

  I sat there until dawn and didn’t wait for that person to show up.

Gu Huayu walked out of the house and saw Wang Qin leaning on a chair and taking a nap. She felt guilty in her heart and whispered: "Aunt Wang!"

Wang Qin heard the shouting and opened his eyes and looked over. Seeing Gu Huayu standing in front of her, she immediately stood up from her chair.

“Miss, is it dawn? I’m sorry, I fell asleep.”

Gu Huayu said: "You haven't slept all night, have you? Go back and sleep for an hour, and then we will go to Zhuangzi. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and we will go to Zhuangzi to celebrate the festival with my father and mother."

Seeing that Gu Hua said nothing, Wang Qin breathed a sigh of relief, cupped her hands and said, "Okay, I understand."

Gu Huayu watched Wang Qin leave, then turned back to the house to catch up on her sleep.

An hour later, several cars drove out of Wutong Lane one after another, heading straight to Mingyue Villa outside the city.

 At the Duke Chengguo's Mansion, Mrs. Ye was spinning around anxiously in the room.

Mrs. Qin said: "Shan'er, sit down, you are making me dizzy."

Mrs. Ye sat down under Mrs. Qin and asked, "Auntie, tell me, why did they suddenly propose a marriage to Zi Qin? And they chose the third lady of the Prime Minister's Palace."

 The Duke of Chengguo has been living in seclusion these years, and his servants never go out for anything.

Just in time for the Dragon Boat Festival, Ye Cheng, Ye Minghao and Ye Mingqin were all in the house. I don't know much about the information from the outside at all.

 The Chengguo Palace was completely unaware of the matter that spread a lot in the capital yesterday.

 To this day, when the buyer went to buy something early in the morning, the shopkeeper congratulated him.

After careful questioning of the purchaser, he found out what happened yesterday, and brought Xin'er back to Chengguo Duke's Mansion.

Mrs. Qin sipped her tea and said, "Ordinarily, Ziqin should tell us about such a big matter. Ziqin didn't come back yesterday... This matter is not simple."

 Ye Shan stood up and said, "Mom, I have to go back and take a look."

Mrs. Qin looked at her daughter and said calmly: "Everything has been settled. What's the point of going back in such a hurry? Sit down first."

 Ye Shan sat down again.

Mrs. Qin turned around and said to Aunt Feng: "Let someone call Cheng'er and Minghao come over."

Mother Feng bent her knees and turned around to do the instructions.

 Ye Cheng and Ye Minghao happened to come to greet Mrs. Qin, and they had already arrived at the gate of Qingfang Hall.

 The two of them listened to the servant's words and hurried to the main room.

Mrs. Qin saw the two people coming in and waved her hand: "Come and sit down. I have something to discuss with you."

 When Ye Cheng and Ye Minghao sat down, Mrs. Qin told what she had heard, and then asked, "What do you think about this?"

Ye Cheng thought for a while and said: "The third wife of the Prime Minister Wang's Mansion, this is a good match..."

Madam Ye asked anxiously: "What's good? Will the old woman hope that Zi Qin is good? If it's a good thing, will Zi Qin come to the government to say something? My heart is twisted into balls."

Ye Minghao nodded, "Auntie is right. With Ziqin's temperament, he would definitely inform his family about such a big matter as discussing marriage. Even if he is too busy to come, he will ask Ru'an and the others to come over and report it. This matter is a bit strange. ”

Mrs. Qian took over and said, "This matter is very strange.

 Zi Qin’s marriage was supposed to be decided by Sister Shan.

The British government not only did not inform Sister Shan, but also made a decision together with the proposal of marriage yesterday, and directly omitted the three steps and six etiquettes to two steps. They are all from high-ranking families. This approach is extremely unusual. "

Ye Minghao blurted out: "So, Ziqin was forced? It would be better for my aunt to go back and take a look."

 Mrs. Ye stood up and walked out.

Mrs. Qin said hurriedly: "I'm going to change my clothes."

The maid hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Qin.

Ye Cheng was worried about his mother and sister, so he said, "Let someone prepare a car, and we can all go over and take a look."

 Half an hour later, the car from the Chengguo Duke's Mansion came to the gate of the British Duke's Mansion.

Mrs. Yang received the report from her servant and said: "I have caught the wind and cold and can't see the wind, so I won't go to accompany the guests. Let Mr. Ye entertain the guests well."

Ms. Li asked: "Mother, do you want your daughter-in-law to go over to receive her? Wouldn't it be bad if she didn't go?"

Mrs. Yang said: "Am I not sick? You are taking care of your illness, how can you get out to receive guests?"

Li Shi smiled and leaned over and said, "Mom still has the idea."

In Wenyuan Pavilion, Du Bin reported to the British Duke: "My lord, the family of Duke Chengguo has come over, but the old lady did not come out to receive them because she was sick. What should we do next?"

The British gentleman pressed his hand on his temple and said: "Let the guests be welcomed into the living room, and I will go there to receive them."

 Du Bin bowed his head and stepped down.

Mrs. Qin and her entourage went to the living room, and the British duke came out. After the two parties greeted each other, the British duke said with a smile: "I was just planning to come to visit you, but I didn't expect Sister Yu to come here first.

  The day before yesterday was very busy and I was not able to have a good talk with Sister Yu. Come, come, invite me to the house and serve tea. "

 Everyone was seated separately.

Mrs. Qin did not mince words and said bluntly: "Master Guo, I came to visit today because I wanted to ask about Ziqin's marriage.

As Ziqin’s grandmother, I don’t know anything about such a big matter. The Duke of the country should give an explanation for this. "

The British duke smiled and said, "Sister Yu, don't be upset for now. I wanted to come and talk to you about this today, but I didn't want you to come here first."
