Chapter 114

Gu Yuyao stared at Gu Qingzhu for a long time, and she was so angry that she didn't say anything. Gu Qingzhu waited for her for a while and shrugged indifferently: "If you have nothing to say, forget it, the things are delivered and the words are brought. Hongqu and I will leave. You are very busy."

After saying this, Gu Qingzhu was about to turn around, and Gu Yuyao quickly called her: "Wait."

Gu Qingzhu stopped but did not look back. Gu Yuyao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Since you are here, sit for a while. I haven't asked you yet, what's going on with my mother? Where is she now?"

Gu Yuyao had heard about what Qin did. On the day of her wedding, Qin came to the He family to ask for half of Wan's dowry from the He family, which completely angered the He family. He Rongzhang called her father over and asked her father to take her back to the house for treatment. Gu Yuyao also hated her mother for disregarding her, which made her disliked by the He family. If it weren't for this, even if He Pingzhou got drunk at night and ran to the main courtyard to complain, the He family would not have treated her like this. Not only did she send all the people she brought from the Gu family to serve, but she also found a nanny from the palace to teach her etiquette, saying that it was etiquette, but in fact it was tormenting her.

Poor that she is more than three months pregnant now, and she is quite weak and has to endure the teaching of the nanny every day, which is extremely painful. She cried to He Pingzhou, and He Pingzhou was also extremely impatient, saying that because her mother completely aroused the respect of the Hou, nothing else said now is useless. The Hou asked the Hou's wife to find someone to discipline her. Gu Yuyao could not say anything and could only bear it.

"Your mother is now Baiyun Temple. I heard that she has become a monk. I don't know anything else." Gu Qingzhu told Gu Yuyao everything she knew about Qin, thinking that Gu Yuyao was worried about Qin, but she turned around and didn't find any sad expression on Gu Yuyao's face, so she knew that she was afraid that she still hated Qin in her heart.

"Is there anything else?" Gu Qingzhu asked again.

Gu Yuyao lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, glanced at Hongqu twice, and glanced at Hongqu for no reason. Gu Yuyao pointed at Hongqu: "The people around me have been sent back to Gu's family. The people in the He family are uncomfortable serving me. Hongqu is very clever. You go and tell me the Marquis for me, let Hongqu stay and serve me. You can pick a few of my people who send back to Gu's family to serve me."

As soon as Gu Qingzhu said this, before Hongqu could react, he knelt down in surprise: "Second Young Master Madam, don't joke with me. I have been serving the Second Miss since I was a child. How could I stay to serve the Second Miss?"

Gu Yuyao was a little impatient: "Anyway, it's the one who serves, who is not the one who serves? Is it your turn to pick on?"

Hongqu was speechless when she said that, and looked at Gu Qingzhu. Gu Qingzhu snorted coldly, not even happy to pay attention to Gu Yuyao, and shouted to Hongqu: "We have come a lot of time and have to go back."

After saying this, Hongqu was relieved. He got up from the ground and ran towards Gu Qingzhu. Gu Yuyao didn't even catch her. She was anxious to jump behind: "Gu Qingzhu, come back!"

Hongqu had already opened the curtain of the door. Gu Qingzhu stopped by the door and looked at Gu Yuyao patiently. Seeing her arrogant face, she was bored and reminded her in advance: "Work your brain before speaking. Don't you know what your situation is? Be smarter and be serious about the actual things you can get."

Although Gu Qingzhu has a bad attitude, the content of his speech is for Gu Yuyao's good. It doesn't matter if he encounters a person's bad luck. He doesn't have any temper, but at least he must see the situation clearly, seize opportunities that may help him, and blindly mention those requirements that are impossible to achieve. There is no meaning, and it will make the opportunity missing.

Gu Yuyao suppressed her anger and gasped for several consecutive times before reaching out to Gu Qingzhu:

"Then give me more money."

Gu Qingzhu turned around and looked at Gu Yuyao, slowly approached, pulled off the purse on his waist, threw it to Gu Yuyao, and whispered:

"Save it a little bit."

Gu Yuyao opened the purse, took out the several silver notes with a denomination of 500 yuan, and counted them. There were six in total. Gu Qingzhu gave her three thousand taels of silver notes. Gu Yuyao pouted, folded the silver notes, stuffed them into the bag brought by Chen Shirang, and hid the bag in the wardrobe behind the screen.

*******

Gu Qingzhu and Hongqu left the He family and sat in the carriage returning home. Hongqu was still scared:

"Miss, I was scared to death just now. I'm so afraid that you will leave me at the He family."

Gu Qingzhu picked up the curtain and looked out, and replied casually: "How is it possible? You are much more important to me than her."

After hearing what his lady said, Hongqu immediately smiled and grabbed Gu Qingzhu's arm to show his loyalty: "Miss, you are so good. I will follow you all my life, and I will follow you when you get married."

Hongqu’s sudden attentiveness made Gu Qingzhu look back at her, put down the curtain of the car, and pulled his arm out of Hongqu’s hand: “Who said I want to bring you with me? Just stay in the Gu family. Follow the old lady, the old lady is here for me and I have to arrange a leisurely job for you.”

Gu Qingzhu stared at Hongqu and said this on purpose. Hongqu's mouth became higher and higher. Gu Qingzhu saw it in his eyes and reached out to flick her forehead:

"I just knew you were not honest! You were not going to marry with me. It was obvious that you just wanted to find someone."

Last time, when Master Zhou Liu left Ren'en Hall, Hongqu and him said something for a long time outside. The little girl must have known Master Zhou Liu was doing business for Qi Xuan now, so she was so loyal to follow her.

Hongqu was exposed by Gu Qingzhu, and he felt a little embarrassed: "Miss, seeing through but not talking about it is also a kind of cultivation. Besides, I have served you since I was a child, saying that I am a slave, but to me, you are my family. Wherever you go and where I go, it has nothing to do with others."

Seeing her eager to express her sincerity, Gu Qingzhu couldn't help laughing. Hongqu thought she didn't believe it, so he raised his right hand high and prepared to swear. Before he could speak, the driving carriage suddenly stopped. The coachman Lao Liu shouted outside: "Who are you, what are you doing when you block the road?"

Hongqu lifted the curtain of the car and asked Lao Liu: "What's wrong?" This alley is quiet and has no people, but it is the only way to look back at home.

"I don't know, a group of people stopped the carriage, you go in and protect the lady, they look wrong."

After Lao Liu finished speaking, he jumped out of the carriage and pointed at the five or six people who suddenly leaned over to the carriage with a horse whip: "What are you doing? Get out of here quickly."

As he spoke, Lao Liu punched someone, five or six people surrounded the carriage, and Hongqu shouted: "Ah, Miss, what should I do? These people... These people..."

It looked like a group of hooligans. What if the lady fell into their hands?

Hongqu was so anxious that he mustered up the courage to say to Gu Qingzhu: "Miss, I'll go and lead them away. You will run in the opposite direction later."

After saying that, Hongqu rushed out, and Gu Qingzhu followed him out of the carriage. Five or six people were already surrounding the carriage. Hongqu couldn't walk at all. He grabbed another whip hanging by the door and waved them: "Get out! We are from the official family. You have offended us, be careful not to get rid of it."

The leader was in the air and looked up and down the red channel: "I know you are from the official family. Someone asked us to arrest you. I didn't expect that even a girl would be so famous. Brothers...ah!"

Before the man finished speaking, a thing was smashed from a high place, and his eyes were bleeding. He hugged his head and retreated to the back and wailed. When the others looked up, a tall figure jumped off the wall, calmly subdued the people in three punches and two kicks.

Hongqu almost showed stars in his eyes, jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the man: "Sixth Master, it's you."

Master Zhou Liu was covered in black and gray, and his hair was tied behind his head. He was very energetic, with a short beard on his face and a gray beard, which added to his calm momentum. Master Zhou Liu felt a headache for the shouts like a snob in the red canal. He had told this girl many times, but she just couldn't listen.

At his age, it is actually quite fatal to get involved in a girl of this age. He can't beat or scold him, and he has to coax him everywhere.

Master Zhou Liu held all the hands of the gangsters together. As soon as he exerted force, all six people were wailing. He asked in a deep voice: "Who asked you to come?"

"Oh, oh, the hero, spare your life, spare your life." The six people wailed.

"Say!" Master Zhou Liu added more strength to his hands.

"I said, I said, it was a man named Wang Fu. We asked us to stop the carriage here and arrest the lady in the carriage outside the city. We didn't know what he was going to do. We just collected the money and did things for others. The hero spared our lives and his hands were going to be ruined!"

Master Zhou Liu turned around and all the six people's shoulders were taken off, curled up on the ground and rolled in pain. His face turned pale. Old Liu took two bundles of ropes from the back of the car, tied up all the six people.

Gu Qingzhu looked at these people, Master Zhou Liu came over and asked, "Sir, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Gu Qingzhu looked at Master Zhou Liu and asked, "Fortunately, I'll meet Master Liu, otherwise it would be difficult for me to deal with them."

Gu Qingzhu has another skill in pointing acupoints. He has some chance of winning against such ordinary gangsters, but they have a lot of people, so it is a bit troublesome to deal with them.

Master Zhou Liu smiled heartily: "It's not a meeting. As long as you go out, I will follow you." After saying that, he suddenly remembered something. Master Zhou Liu teamed up with Gu Qingzhu and added another sentence: "The prince gave the order. By the way, I have sent a signal before that the prince is patrolling the city and will arrive in a while."

As he was talking, a team of patrol officers and soldiers came from the alley. Who would the leader be Qi Xuan? Gu Qingzhu had a headache when he saw him and didn't want to communicate more. He explained to Master Zhou Liu:

"These people are troubled by Master Liu to ask the origin. Someone else must be instructed behind the scenes. I will get in the car and go home first."
