Chapter 67 I Don’t Want to Stay in Pei’s House for Even a Day
Li Mumu stared at Xie Xun guiltily, "Brother Xie, why are you here?"
Xie Xun was slightly stunned. He didn't expect her to call him that. After all, she was the young lady of the general's mansion and was quite approachable. After two days of getting along with her, he didn't see any arrogance in her.
"You think a few bees can trap me?"
Li Mumu looked at him. He probably didn't know that he was the one who released the bees. That would be a big deal.
"What are you doing at the prefect's mansion? Won't your cousin come to the post station to see you?" Xie Xun asked suspiciously.
Now that she has been caught, Li Mumu has nothing to hide. She has to go into the prefectural mansion today no matter what.
"If my cousin was going to come, she would have come a long time ago, but she hasn't come for so long. I was afraid she didn't know." Li Mumu said half-truthfully.
Xie Xun took a deep breath, his beautiful eyes darkening a little. Then he suddenly looked at Li Mumu and nodded. "You are young, but you are very smart. It's a pity that your father and his family still call you a fool."
Li Mumu said proudly, "This is called great wisdom appearing foolish."
Xie Xun's face was serious, which was not suitable for someone of his age, but Li Mumu made him laugh. "But if, as you said, Miss Gu doesn't know, then there's no way I can pass on the news."
Li Mumu secretly praised the boy for being quite smart and his analysis was very insightful, but she didn't plan to ask anyone to notify him.
"The news can't get in, but I can get in!"
Li Mumu smiled and pointed at the high wall. The sky was getting darker and darker. As the saying goes, a dark and windy night is the time for murder and robbery.
She didn't kill anyone, she went to save people and make some money by the way. That's not too much, right?
Xie Xun instantly understood what the little girl meant. He looked at her chubby little body, estimated its weight, then touched his own wound with an embarrassed look on his face.
This was the first time that Li Mumu was so blatantly despised by someone. She had baby fat and had lost weight after being exiled for so many days.
"It shouldn't be difficult."
After Xie Xun finished speaking, he took Li Mumu's hand and told her to take good care of herself. Then he gritted his teeth, jumped up and jumped into the wall.
Li Mumu didn't have time to exclaim, that's not what she meant.
She wanted to crawl in. There was a rope in her space, one end of which was hung on the wall. Couldn't she just crawl in?
However, Xie Xun's trick was more convenient. However, after the two of them landed, she heard a muffled groan from him behind her.
Li Mumu looked at him with concern. Before she could ask, she heard the hurried footsteps of several maids and servants, "Hurry up and call the old lady. The eldest young lady is angry and wants to hit someone."
The eldest young lady?
Isn’t that my cousin Gu Lan?
Li Mumu walked in the direction they came from, hiding all the way. Because of her small stature and high vigilance, she avoided the servants and night watchmen.
However, he found the wrong room at first, and Xie Xun didn't expect that there was a live sex show going on on the roof where he was lying.
Li Mumu's eyes widened. She swore she just wanted to see who that person was, not to observe him. But she didn't expect a pair of cold hands to cover her eyes, "Don't look."
Li Mumu rolled her eyes, "Xie Gege, what are they doing?"
"They...they...are...playing." Xie Xun was so nervous that he couldn't speak clearly.
Li Mumu didn't want to bully the boy from a decent family, and she didn't want to delay her business either. However, she still heard the woman's soft voice calling the man's name, "Yuan Qing!"
Pei Yuanqing!
Her cousin's husband's name.
Li Mumu took a deep breath, feeling mixed emotions. She felt powerless in this era. Her eldest cousin was also a top-notch person in the capital. She was both talented in literature and martial arts, but she ended up like this.
Li Mumu searched several courtyards and finally found her cousin, but she got angry when she saw the scene in front of her.
There was no one in the whole yard who was scary, except for my eldest cousin who was locked in the house and shouting angrily.
"Let me out! Even if I marry into your Pei family, I'm still a daughter of the Gu family. As a child, there's no reason for me not to see my parents. Pei Yuanqing, come out!"
Li Mumu's eyes became sore as she listened to her hoarse voice.
Xie Xun glanced at her and motioned her to go in first, while he would keep watch for her.
"Pei Yuanqing, your Pei family is so heartless and ungrateful. I, Gu Lan, am truly blind. Do you think a mere door can hold me back?"
At this time, a woman's voice came from outside, "Wife Yuanqing, you are still pregnant, don't get too excited. We are doing this for your own good. The Gu family is already in trouble, why bother to get into trouble? If not for yourself, you have to think about the Pei family, Yuanqing, and the child in your belly."
The woman's voice was indifferent. "Don't make a fuss. They will leave after today. If you really provoke Yuan Qing, I won't be able to stop him from turning against you."
"You're turning against me, so you turn against me. Do you think I, Gu Lan, am afraid of you?" Gu Lan shouted, followed by a painful gasp.
Li Mumu felt that something was wrong and was afraid that the fetus might be disturbed.
"Now that I have said this, you should think about it carefully." After saying this, the woman left with her servants.
Li Mumu saw that Gu Lan had picked up the Qingmang sword, holding his abdomen with one hand, and was about to chop open the door lock that was preventing her from leaving.
Li Mumu quickly lifted the tiles from the roof and jumped down. Gu Lan was startled and pointed his sword at Li Mumu who was falling from the sky, "Who is it?"
However, when she saw it was a little baby, she froze, "Twilight?"
Gu Lan had been married for less than a year. Although the little girl had changed a lot in that year, she still recognized her little cousin at a glance. She was surprised and happy, worried and scared.
"Mumu, why... did you come from here?" Gu Lan cried out in pain again after saying this, "Ah... it hurts!"
Li Mumu hurried to feel her pulse. Gu Lan looked at her little cousin in astonishment, and for a moment wondered if she was just someone who looked like her little cousin.
"Cousin, did you take abortion pills?"
The word "cousin" brought Gu Lan back to reality. Enduring the pain, she shook her head, "Why would I eat that? You mean..."
Fortunately, Li Mumu was well prepared. She pretended to take out the pregnancy-preserving pills that she had prepared from her arms, but actually took out the pregnancy-preserving pills from the space and handed them to Gu Lan.
Gu Lan took it without a second thought, "Mumu, how did you become a doctor?"
"Cousin, I'm going to tell you later that someone in the Pei family wants to harm you and the baby in your belly."
Gu Lan nodded. "I understand without you saying anything. The Pei family is really a piece of shit. How are my family? I... I'm really useless. I can't help you and I can't go out to see you. The Pei family... I really don't want to stay there for even a day."
Gu Lan was desperate, so desperate that she would rather go into exile with her family than be the eldest lady in the prefect's mansion.
Li Mumu's eyes lit up. This cousin was much more straightforward than her mother. Of course, this also meant that her scumbag father was more resourceful.
"Cousin, Mumu will take you away, but... you can't get away like this." Li Mumu pointed at her belly and said.
