Seeking Happiness Chapter 122: Suddenly bad news
The next morning, after sending Zhang Hanfang away, there were no other people in the courtyard looking at dislikes. Shu Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and happily picked up her brush, touched back the embroidery needle, and Gu Xi Ran was busy dealing with the aftermath of the fire, and sent someone to review the delivery of the mansion.
Three meals a day, the two of them are hiding in the room and eating each other, there is no extra person beside them, and there is no need to avoid avoiding talking, eating and chatting in a leisurely manner, suddenly there is an illusion of calmness in the years. It seems that the long and light happiness at this moment can continue to last until the gray hair is gray and the earth is gone.
It's really just an illusion.
If you live in modern times, they can enjoy the world of two people as soon as the door is closed. But in this large house with a large population and constant things, even if the door is closed, someone will still knock on it.
Before going to bed at night, Shu Huan had just taken off her hairpin and spread her hair, when she almost jumped up when she was slapped at the door.
Gu Xiran was lying on the bed reading a book. Hearing this sound, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hey, why do you want to say it again
The two looked at each other with helpless eyes.
Huiyun's voice sounded outside the door. It is definitely not a trivial matter to make her anxious.
"Second Lord, Ma, get up quickly, someone in the house came to pass a message, saying that the uncle...he passed away"
Shu Huan's heart jumped and she hurriedly dropped her comb, and stepped forward and opened the door: "What's going on, you can make it clear."
Huiyun shook his head: "I don’t know. Ask the person who sent the message, but he can’t make it clear. He just asked the second master and grandma to go back quickly. The house is in a mess. The master fell ill. Jun cried so much that she almost lost her breath. The **** were dumbfounded. When she talked to her, she just yelled to find the rope..."
When Gu Xiran heard this, she knew that she couldn't ask anything more, so she just said: "Get the car and leave now"
It's a bit weird, but it's serious.
Shu Huan bit her lip and thought for a while, shouting again and again for the maid, and finally hurried over with a beautiful look with a flustered look: "What's the order for milk?"
"Go to Doctor Ji and Master Du and say that we are leaving right away. If they are willing to stay for two more days, they will stay for two days. If they don’t want to live anymore, let the steward prepare the car for them. Master Du now It’s not convenient to follow up in the mansion, so let him stay with Doctor Ji for a few days first, and when things are done, the second master will naturally find him."
The beautiful scenery responded and left.
Shu Huan didn’t have time to pack anything, so she only took the gold and silver jewelry, and then looked for two thick clothes with Gu Xiran, then pulled her hair casually, summoned her to pick up the lantern, and went to the other courtyard. Rush out.
Hurrying all the way, no one had the intention to speak, auntie Shang Yun took Xiangqian to chase after her, also silently.
Walking through the night and being blown by the shivering wind, Shu Huan couldn't help but looked up at the sky, wanting to see if there were any signs of change.
Obviously it is August 10, the fullest time of the moon, but that month is hiding in the clouds, even the stars are not seen, the deep night sky is like a huge black net, blowing towards your face.
She suddenly became nervous, and she felt a sense of wild grass growing wildly.
After traveling for so long, she had never seen Gu Xitian. Naturally, she felt no sorrow for the death of this stranger. She just felt that life was illusory and things were impermanent.
A few days ago, a person who was enthusiastic about going out to do business after the fall, suddenly died. No matter how it made her feel that there was a strong mystery here, and Gu Xitian was important in the Gu family. Sex is doomed to his death and will cause a series of chain reactions in Gu's family. Whether the final change is good or bad for her and Gu Xiran is unknown.
Hurrying to the door, there are already three vehicles there. Naturally, it is impossible for all the people in the other yard to follow them immediately. They only pick up a few important ones and follow them. The others, save their things and return after packing.
Shu Huan walked to the car and found that in a hurry, the steward had forgotten to prepare the pedals. Gu Xiran took an arm and supported her in the car. She was not yet seated, and suddenly saw the other courtyard. A few lanterns in the gate chased them, but Ji Danqing and Du Qiudu's mother also rushed out.
Gu Xiran saw Ji Danqing carrying the medicine box on his back, and frowned slightly: "Doctor Ji, this is..."
Ji Danqing still has a gentle expression, he arched his hands and said: "It is not safe to drive in the middle of the night. I have discussed with Du Qiu for a while. Let's go together. If anything happens, there will be a response on the road. Besides, you all go. Now, it’s boring for us to stay here."
Gu Xiran nodded slightly and raised her voice to ask the manager to prepare the car again, but Zhang Hanfang had already occupied several cars when he was sent away. At the moment of the manager, he could barely pull up another car. Ask Ji Danqing to sit with Du Qiu. , Du Mu went to the front and rode with Aunt Yun.
Just when the maids were panicking to get in the car, Gu Xiran raised his eyes and saw Huiyun. After a moment of thought, he suddenly said to her: "You will stay in the other courtyard for the time being. When will you return? I will send someone to tell you."
Huiyun was stunned, followed by a soreness and pain in her heart. She didn't dare to say anything, but handed the things in her hand to Meijing, and said: "Yes."
This is equal to expulsion and alienation in disguise
She originally thought that if she didn't pick someone to marry, she could always relax for a few days, maybe things would turn around, but she didn't expect that no matter how cautious she was, she would still not be able to stay with Gu Xiran.
Auntie Yun happened to hear this before she got into the car, and her thoughts were also slightly moved. I wonder if she will end up like Huiyun in the future. Suddenly, she felt a sense of regret for not having the original miserable feeling. In this way, you should not have any thoughts, guard your identity, and live a peaceful life.
When everyone got into the car, they listened to the driver's whip and drove the car forward.
It's just dark at night and there is no moon. It only relies on a few wind lights in front of the car to illuminate, the car can't gallop, and the coachman is holding the mule and horse, trotting all the way, looking very hard.
Shu Huan is a little bit overwhelmed~IndoMTL.com~ asked Gu Xiran in a low voice: "Are we too impatient? We can't make much of it like this. It's better to wait until dawn before leaving. It won't take an hour. Catching up this night road also saves these drivers from being so tired."
Gu Xiran sighed slightly and lowered the curtain: "You are right, but I heard the bad news about the starry night and the night when I fell asleep and then got up and rushed on the road. It seems to others that they are two different things."
This is reality, right
Sometimes teaching people have to wear a hypocritical mask, not to gain a good reputation for brotherhood, but to be as comprehensive as possible and reduce unnecessary trouble.
Shu Huan was silent for a long time, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled Gu Xiran's sleeves: "Is there any chili water I prepared last time? Give me some. I'm afraid I won't be able to cry when I'm nervous."
She only experienced the funeral of her grandmother and grandfather when she was a child. It was a close relative by blood. The grief was natural, but Gu Xitian was just a complete stranger to her. She could have sympathy, sigh, sorrow and lightness. Sad, but never to the point where she burst into tears and pierced her heart. She was really afraid that she would be embarrassed if she was caught in a group of crying people.
