The Epic Revenge Chapter 166: New house

When Gu Qingzhou arrived at the Overseer's Mansion, it was completely dark.

When she got out of the car, one foot was deep and the other was shallow.

The night wind in October was cold and cold, blowing in from the green sleeves. Gu Qingzhou's forearm was tucked into the coat, and she was unwilling to stretch it out. She felt cold, whether it was cold in her heart or cold in her body.

She is timid.

Since meeting Si Xingpei, Gu Qingzhou felt that his situation was embarrassing.

"If the commander-in-chief knew about me and Si Xingpei, in order to prevent the scandal from spreading, would he kill me?" Gu Qingzhou thought.

The future is even more bleak.

She froze for a moment.

The street lights are on, the tall kapok trees are dropping their leaves, the leaves cover the streets, and the orange street lights are like veils lingering.

The gate is guarded tightly, with guards carrying live ammunition within five steps.

Gu Qingzhou stepped on the fallen leaves with light steps, and entered the tall and majestic gate.

From a distance, you can smell the fragrance of the food in the restaurant, but Gu Qingzhou wants to vomit, the shadow of the soup from the last time is still floating.

What Si Xingpei brings to Gu Qingzhou is always more pain than joy.

She endured the discomfort and moved on.

The crystal lamp of the restaurant shines through the transparent glass window, dyeing a peach tree in the courtyard into a crystal clear.

"Ms. Gu." The maid saw her first and opened the door for her.

Gu Qingzhou looked around the house and found that there was no Si Xingpei, but the commander-in-chief was smiling, chatting and laughing with Mrs. Si and Si Qiongzhi.

Simus is also there.

It seems that today is not a bad thing, it's just a meal, which has nothing to do with Si Xingpei.

She thought: "Did the Overseer invite me to dinner to persuade me to treat Sim?"

It wasn't a settlement, Gu Qingzhou felt a little more relaxed and stepped into the restaurant.

"Abba, Sister Gu is here." Si Qiongzhi reminded the commander-in-chief.

She no longer calls her sister-in-law, but her sister.

This may be a signal that Mrs. Si may have persuaded the commander-in-chief to retire.

"Could it be that he proposed to retire his relatives?" Gu Qingzhou was still guessing. She was actually a little worried about quitting now.

Because she had no excuse to escape from Si Xingpei after she quit her relatives, she fell into his hands completely.

A good impression of Si Xingpei, and because the pot of human head soup was swept away, Gu Qingzhou remembered that he was both terrified and nauseated.

"Qingzhou." The commander-in-chief waved to Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou walked over to the commander-in-chief.

The seat beside him is empty, reserved for Gu Qingzhou.

"Overseer, you look very good, have you been happy recently?" Gu Qingzhou said.

"I don't have much to be happy about. My health is better than before." The commander-in-chief joked. He was in a happy mood. It was estimated that he was a group from Nanjing and had a lot to gain.

Then he asked Gu Qingzhou, "I heard you fell and got hurt?"

"It's ready, Overseer." Gu Qingzhou said.

"I'm losing weight." The governor looked at her, "I haven't invited you to dinner for a few days, so the family should get together more often."

Gu Qingzhou lowered his brows and eyes, thinking about what happened today.

The commander-in-chief didn't seem to be looking for trouble. Instead, he was kind and pleasant. Even Si Qiongzhi and Mrs. Si put away their arrogance and had a gentle attitude.

Si Mu sat next to Gu Qingzhou, his eyes were empty, neither looking at Qingzhou nor other people, as if he was out of the way.

The servant brought the dish, and Mrs. Si asked the servant to serve soup to Gu Qingzhou, and Gu Qingzhou's face changed greatly.

She can't really see the soup...

"What's the matter, isn't this soup right?" Mrs. Si saw Gu Qingzhou's expression and thought she was too pretentious, so she couldn't help asking.

This comes with a bit of scrutiny.

Gu Qingzhou is embarrassed: "No, I don't like soup very much."

"Try it, this is the pheasant hunted by the Overseer himself. It tastes good." Mrs. Si insisted, as if Gu Qingzhou had to drink it.

Gu Qingzhou's face turned pale.

Suddenly, a hand reached out and took Gu Qingzhou's soup bowl firmly.

It's Sim.

Simus picked up the bowl of soup and drank it all in one breath.

"You kid, what are you talking about!" Mrs. Si was annoyed and glanced at her son.

She set the rules for Gu Qingzhou, but she didn't expect her son to be so blind!

Okay, what is he doing with the soup in Gu Qingzhou's bowl!

Could it be that he fell in love with Gu Qingzhou?

Mrs. Si's face suddenly became very bad.

The commander-in-chief laughed and said, "They are young people who are more fragrant in other people's bowls."

These words are just to intercede for Simu, but Gu Qingzhou is guilty of a thief, and he can hear the overtones.

She thought, if she wasn't Si Mu's fiancee, maybe Si Xingpei would not be interested in her.

For Si Xingpei, Gu Qingzhou is also soup in someone else's bowl.

She's in a trance.

This meal, Gu Qingzhou ate more cautiously, trying to figure out the purpose of the governor's treat for a while, and thinking of Si Xingpei for a while, but he didn't eat a few bites.

The governor and Mrs. Si only felt that she ate less, and did not think about other aspects.

After the meal, the commander-in-chief called Gu Qingzhou to the study alone and told her something.

"Qingzhou, which house do you like?" The commander-in-chief sat firmly on the sofa, with a high bearing and the tenderness of a loving father, and asked Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou was puzzled and wondered if the commander-in-chief also knew about Si Xingpei's garden house?

No, Si Xingpei's place is quite secret.

"...I'm not very familiar with Yuecheng." Gu Qingzhou said truthfully.

The chief inspector smiled, as expected: "I plan to discuss with your father this year for the Chinese New Year. In July and August next year, the marriage between you and Mu'er will be done, and the new house will also be prepared.

Mu'er has always been indifferent, it doesn't matter where he lives. It's you, Qingzhou. In the future, you will be in charge of Mu'er's house. If you have something you like, tell Mu'er and let him tell me. "

Gu Qingzhou squinted and said nothing.

The governor thought she was shy, and smiled: "Marriage is a big deal, Qingzhou. Old-fashioned people, parents prepare everything, but you and Mu'er are fashionistas, and your own opinions are also very important. "

In the new house, Gu Qingzhou and Simu will live in the future for the rest of their lives, and the commander-in-chief wants to ask her for her opinion.

Gu Qingzhou's heart is astringent, her eyes drooping dimly, stirring the thick fringe of her shawl.

Is her marriage to Simu really on the agenda?

This means that it's time to retire.

She had promised Mrs. Si that when she really wanted to get married, she would quit her relatives and take over all the responsibilities herself.

"Qingzhou, I know that Madam has a little prejudice against you." The commander said suddenly.

Gu Qingzhou was stunned and couldn't help but raised his eyes and glanced at the commander-in-chief.

The commander-in-chief's voice was low, as if he had a secret, and said to Gu Qingzhou: "The reason for the marriage between the two families of Si and Gu was not your parents, but your grandfather. He has a kindness for me to recreate."

Gu Qingzhou didn't quite understand, and looked at the commander in doubt.

Obviously, the commander-in-chief does not intend to explain the grace of this reconstruction in detail for the time being.

"Madam, she is a woman, and women are inherently harsh towards other women, I understand that." The commander said.

Just as his mother doesn't like his wife, Mrs. Si doesn't like Gu Qingzhou, which makes sense.

"Don't worry, you will definitely be the daughter-in-law of the Si family. I have prepared a big gift for you, and everyone will know that it is a great blessing for the Si family to marry you." The governor said.

Gu Qingzhou immediately refused: "Overseer, I don't want it. I won't be rewarded without merit."

"Who said you didn't do anything? When you cured the old lady, you saved my mother's life; when you cured Mrs. Yan, you saved the family of the chief of staff for me. These are all great contributions." The governor said, "Besides, I will also count on you for Mu'er's illness in the future."

The commander-in-chief said that he prepared a big gift for Gu Qingzhou, but he didn't say what it was. He just told Gu Qingzhou that although he was ready to get married, Mrs. Si's objection was useless.

He is so confident, but Gu Qingzhou is at a loss.

Gu Qingzhou is also thinking about how to explain to the governor that she doesn't want to marry Simu.

She just wants the people who take care of her family to receive retribution. She gets her grandfather's property, and leaves Yuecheng far away from Si Xingpei's control.

Of course, nothing can be said now.

Gu Qingzhou's smile is soft and soft, but his heart is very tormented.

The two of them were talking, and the commander was in good spirits. He probably had the idea of ​​marrying a daughter-in-law when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in," said the commander.

A subtle fragrance blew through the door, and the fragrance of hot cocoa wafted in.

A tall and slender woman, wearing a moon-white plain cheongsam, her hair in a low bun, her youthful face clean and her skin white and clear.

"Overseer." The woman said softly, putting down a cup of tea and a cup of hot cocoa, "Please drink tea."

Then, she brought hot cocoa to Gu Qingzhou, her hands were slender and white, her wrists were snowy, and she pushed it over.

Gu Qingzhou catches it.

"This is the fifth concubine." The commander-in-chief introduced.

The fifth concubine of the commander-in-chief is called Hua Yan. She is only 25 years old this year. She has been with the commander-in-chief for more than five years and has no children. Although not as graceful as Mrs. Si, Hua Yan's appearance is charming and festive, and a round face is very pleasing.

The fifth concubine's eyes are deep and bright, like autumn water, and they look very clean.

"Overseer, I heard that Miss Gu is good at medicine?"

Hana Yan sat next to the commander and asked.

The commander-in-chief nodded his head: "Yes, Qingzhou's medical skills are superb."

"Overseer, I've had abdominal pain since mid-March, and now it's still happening every now and then." Hua Yan said.

The commander-in-chief was taken aback.

Obviously, Hua Yan didn't tell the governor.

"Didn't go to the doctor?" The commander frowned, "You can't bear it when you're sick."

"I went to see it." Hua Yan said gently, "Every time I take the medicine, it's fine, but I relapse after a while, and I can't get rid of the root. I heard that Miss Gu is very good at medicine, and I want to ask Miss Gu to help me take a look."

Gu Qingzhou is responsible for seeing a doctor, and she doesn't mind. It is Gu Qingzhou's responsibility to study medicine to be able to solve the spiritual sufferings in the world. She has sworn this way since she was a child.

"Auntie, are you still in pain?" Gu Qingzhou asked.

"It doesn't hurt, but it happened three days ago. I don't know when it will happen next time." Hua Yan smiled.

She has a sweet smile, drooping eyes and lashes like two small fans.

The commander-in-chief glanced at Gu Qingzhou and then at Hanayan, and suddenly felt that the expressions of the two were a bit similar, and he couldn't help laughing.

Gu Qingzhou said: "Since it's not a sudden illness, can I come see you tomorrow? It's so late today..."
