Chapter 23 Washing the Marrow and Cutting the Tendons
Gu Qingyun sat alone on the kang and read a book leisurely. She seemed serious but was actually very upset. She knew that she was getting married in two days. She didn't want to marry someone who was so indifferent and insidious about her life.
Villain, so she must find a way to stop this gifted marriage.
When she thought of this, the picture of Gu Qingyun's helplessness and struggle before her death flashed in her mind. At that moment, she didn't have to die because of Prince Bai's indifference, and Gu Qingyun was the one who allowed her to die.
Such infatuation with him, but in exchange for such a tragic end, she would be worse off marrying such a sinister villain than marrying a dog.
The roar in her heart was like a torrent rolling over the embankment, and her eyes shot out sharp dagger-like gazes, as if piercing the heart of the enemy. She had no idea that she had torn the book in her hand to pieces.
At this time, a joking voice rang out, "Miss, is it possible that this book has a deep hatred for you, and you have to crush it to ashes?" As she spoke, Xuelan had already placed a large package on the table, and stood rubbing her hands.
By Gu Qingyun's side.
When Gu Qingyun came back to her senses, she realized that the book in her hand was no longer in shape. Seeing Xue Lan frozen like a ripe red apple, she couldn't help but smile, "Look at how frozen you are, why don't you get on the bed quickly?"
Warm, warm.”
"Okay!" Xuelan jumped onto the kang without any courtesy, squinting her eyes and looking like she was enjoying herself, "This is where people should stay."
Gu Qingyun looked sideways at the large bag full of things on the table, looking at Xuelan's muddy clothes, and said curiously, "What are you doing? You look at your clothes and they are so sloppy."
Xuelan poured a glass of hot water and took a sip to moisten her throat, then said, "Miss, you don't know that I even drilled dog holes in order to bring this thing back quietly. Look at this dress.
It lasted for the dog hole."
Gu Qingyun covered her mouth and chuckled, "Dog hole, why did you get in through the dog hole when you left the good back door open?"
"Except for you and me, Miss Xianghanju, the other maids are all the bastards of that old witch Shi's. If I really go in and out through the back door, she won't know about it, and something will happen again, so I'm smart and leave decisively."
The road not taken will come and go without leaving a trace. Miss, am I great?" Xuelan also put on her best expression.
Gu Qingyun was stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly filled with a thin mist, and she said softly, "Lan'er, it's really hard for you."
Xuelan waved her hands quickly, "Miss, don't say that. It's too late for Xuelan to be happy that she can do something for miss. Besides, Xuelan is already familiar with that dog hole."
Xuelan opened the package and took out a beautifully made quilt and placed it on the kang, "Miss slave saw that you didn't have many clothes in your closet, so she took the initiative and bought a quilt to keep warm."
Gu Qingyun held the fabric, which should be made of silk, and felt warm in her heart, "Isn't it cheap? You bought it for me, what about you?"
Xuelan whispered softly, "I spent all the extra money to buy this jacket. I am not afraid of the cold, so there is no need to add more clothes. My body is too thin to catch cold."
Gu Qingyun held Chu Zi tightly, and said warmly in her heart, "Thank you Lan'er."
Xuelan waved her hand quickly, "Miss, you have offended my slave. It is your duty to serve the lady."
Gu Qingyun smiled sincerely at Xuelan, "Get some hot water and I'll wash your marrow and cut your tendons."
It wasn't until late at night that Gu Qingyun helped the pale Xuelan to sleep on her couch and covered her with a quilt. However, she changed into a pair of night clothes, locked the door inside, and glanced at the sleeping figure.
Xuelan climbed out of the window and slid into the night as light as a baby swallow.
