Chapter 065 Can’t Go to Zhuzhou
"Huh?" Gu Yu opened his mouth wide, as if he didn't understand. Li Yunjue pushed him aside, "Go quickly."
"Oh, oh, oh." Gu Yu grabbed his hair as he walked, and then muttered to himself, "This is really strange. I tried to persuade him in a nice way, but he didn't listen. My little cousin was so fierce, but he actually listened to her?"
So, Fatty Gu concluded that kind people are often bullied, so he would have to be a little more aggressive in the future.
That night, Xie Xun never refused the food given by the Gu family again. After all, they had spent money on it, so he felt more at ease.
He also had a general understanding of the current relationship between the Gu and Li families, which was much more serious than he had imagined.
Every night is the most nervous time for Lin Siyan. She is always worried that Zhang Xiang’s claws will reach her. Seeing her frightened look as if she wants to bury herself in the ground, Li Mumu is happy.
This is why, even though Zhang Xiang is so hateful, she still spared his life.
With him around, Lin Siyan would live in fear every day without her having to do anything.
Lin Siyan was clinging to Li Yuan like a pendant at this moment, and she wanted to follow him even to the toilet.
Zhang Xiang stroked his mustache, with his big belly, and walked towards Lin Siyan step by step.
Lin Siyan's face turned pale with fear, and she hid behind Li Yuan as hard as she could.
"Don't be nervous, my little beauty. I won't touch you tonight. When we get to Zhuzhou tomorrow, I'll take good care of you."
Lin Siyan snuggled into Li Yuan's arm, her eyes trembling as she suddenly thought of something. "Master, I... I'm pregnant, and I'm afraid I'll spoil your fun. Why don't I wait... wait until I give birth to the baby? I'll definitely take good care of you. If you... if you really need someone, then... the women of the Gu family are all daughters of famous families. They... will definitely be better at serving people."
Is it Zhang Xiang who doesn't want to?
He doesn't dare.
Apart from anything else, he had witnessed at this moment that Gu Mingjing could break free from the shackles in minutes. If he dared to set his sights on the women of the Gu family, he would lose his life.
On the contrary, the Li family can play freely.
"Shut up, it's your blessing that I let you serve me."
"Brother Yuan!" Lin Siyan said in a soft voice, shaking like a sieve with fear.
Li Yuan is very concerned about his reputation. Even if he doesn't like Lin Siyan that much at the moment, Lin Siyan is his woman after all. He can't let his woman serve another man at the moment.
"Sir, she's from the countryside and doesn't know the rules. Please don't hold it against her for the mistakes she made before." Li Yuan said, "There are countless beautiful women in Zhuzhou. She's just a country girl, so please don't make things difficult for her."
"Zhuzhou?" Zhang Yi, who had just been packing up his tent, poked his head out. "Are we going to Zhuzhou tomorrow?"
"That's right. If we move faster tomorrow, we can rest in Zhuzhou."
"We can't go to Zhuzhou!" Zhang Yi said excitedly, "Sir, can we take a detour tomorrow? Even taking more mountain roads wouldn't be a problem."
The Gu family members were busy setting up the tent, but they stopped what they were doing after hearing the word Zhuzhou.
Li Mumu held her cheek and saw her aunt was so excited, so she wondered what was going on in Zhuzhou.
She really thought of it.
Gu Mingyu and Zhang Yi's only daughter, Gu Lan, who was also her eldest cousin, married into Zhuzhou and became the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhuzhou prefect.
Although the crime is not as serious as that of a married woman, my aunt probably doesn't want to embarrass my cousin.
Although Li Gulan was not affected, the wife of the governor of Zhuzhou was his second wife and was a vicious person. She took the opportunity to deprive her cousin of her power as housekeeper and also bullied her everywhere.
At this time, the exile team arrived in Zhuzhou. My cousin wanted to take care of her family, but was ridiculed and placed under house arrest. My cousin was also a strong-willed woman. She insisted on seeing her family despite the obstruction. As a result, she had a miscarriage during the fight and the three-month-old fetus was lost.
Then her mother-in-law stuffed several concubines into her cousin's husband's room, and whispered in the ear of the governor of Zhuzhou, causing the governor to make things difficult for the Gu family.
My cousin died as soon as the exile team left after a series of attacks.
It didn't say how she died, but after reading the description, Li Mumu always felt that there was something wrong with her death.
Thinking of this, Li Mumu felt that her cousin must be having a hard time right now. Although her aunt had good intentions, her cousin was in urgent need of help.
"Speak of mercy?" Zhang Xiang sneered. "Don't think that just because I'm being nice to you, you're such a piece of cake. Now you dare to order me around. This detour around each state will add at least a hundred miles. Who's responsible for the lost time?"
"Please, count it on me. I beg you not to go to Zhuzhou." Zhang Yi cried.
How could the Gu family not know what she was thinking? Zhang Yi thought about how his daughter had just written a letter home and was already two months pregnant. Now she was only three months pregnant. Not to mention the fetus, what would happen if she got excited and hurt the child when she saw them like this?
"No? How could your old lover be in Zhuzhou?" Zhang Xiang said with a wicked smile, "Wouldn't that be a good opportunity to meet him?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Mingyu protected his wife and glared at Zhang Xiang.
Li Mumu smiled coldly. She didn't want Zhang Xiang's life now, but she didn't say that she wouldn't deal with him.
"Hiss... what is that?" Zhang Xiang felt as if something had stared at his face. Then his face went numb and his tongue became swollen. "Oh... what's wrong with me?"
No one knew what Li Mumu did, and it was so secretive that it was hard not to think of ghosts and gods in the dark night.
Zhang Xiang looked around and felt as if he was being stared at. He felt uncomfortable and rubbed his shoulders. "Meng Tian, I'm going to Zhuzhou!"
Zhang Yi burst into tears after hearing this. "Husband, what should we do? We can't let Lan'er see us like this. She's pregnant and can't stand this kind of shock."
"Mom, please think of a solution."
Old Madam Gu sighed. She understood her daughter-in-law's feelings, but what could she do?
Seeing her nearly collapsed aunt, Li Mumu said in a baby voice, "Aunt, wouldn't your cousin be even more worried if she couldn't see you? Mumu would be very sad if she couldn't see her mother."
Zhang Yi understood this principle, but she was worried that her daughter would be disliked by her in-laws if she came to see them.
Li Mumu didn't say whether to meet him or not. Gu Lan was already looked down upon by her in-laws. Maybe meeting him once could help save the baby in her belly.
"Mumu, you're still young, you don't know... Alas..."
"Okay, what Mumu said makes sense. She is also worried about you. I'm afraid she must feel guilty about not being able to see you." said Mrs. Gu. She understood her granddaughter's temperament.
"Mother, my Lan'er!"
Madam Gu patted Zhang Yi on the back and said, "In our Gu family, even the women are not cowards. She can make it through this."
It was this sentence that further confirmed Li Mumu's guess that her cousin would definitely not die of depression, and there was another hidden story behind her death.
