Chapter 61 Secret Investigation of Background
"Doctor Sun had some matters at home, so he went home these few days."
Zhou Chunyu was explaining things to the managers and replied casually.
Jin Kui cried so hard: "Young Madam had a miscarriage and needs to take medicine to recuperate."
Zhou Chunyu buried his head in the account and said, "Okay, I understand. You can go back and I'll call a doctor from outside to check it out."
Jin Kui wiped her tears, stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Manager Zhou, may I ask...how is Yinzhi?"
Zhou Chunyu then raised his head: "What else can I do?"
Jin Kui's heart collapsed and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Everyone in the yard looked at her, but no one showed any sympathy.
Zhou Zhilan happened to come over and frowned when she saw this: "What are you doing? Hurry up and drag Jin Kui down, so as not to affect Manager Zhou's work."
An elderly mother nearby came over to pull Jinkui.
Jin Kui had no choice but to return to Jinxiu Pavilion crying.
Seeing this, Gu Wanru, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, was so angry that she cursed: "Are you crying? Is your mother dead or your father dead? You are crying and bringing bad luck."
Jin Kui quickly stopped crying and said, "Miss, Doctor Sun has to go back home for some business, and Steward Zhou said he will get a doctor for you."
"What! He dares..." Gu Wanru was so angry that she wanted to sit up, but her lower abdomen was cramping with pain, so she had to lie back down. It hurt so much that tears were streaming down my face.
Why, why do these lowly servants treat her like this?
She was the young lady who was carried in through the main gate in a dignified manner.
After crying for a long time, she felt that crying was useless and glared at the stupid Jin Kui angrily.
"Find a way to get Aunt Pei to come into the mansion."
At this time, only her mother can help her.
She couldn't just give in like that.
"You are still under house arrest, Aunt Pei can't come in." Jin Kui said in a muffled voice.
"Think of a solution, you pig-brain!" Gu Wanru roared, and her stomach began to ache again.
He held his stomach, groaned and cursed.
Jin Kui said "oh" and turned away.
Gu Wanru was so angry that she almost exploded.
…
"The old lady's birthday is in two days. In the past, the mansion would prepare some delicious dishes for her. Now that the master is back, do you want to hold a big party for her?"
Zhou Chunyu stood in front of the desk, looking at his energetic master, and couldn't help feeling curious.
Is it so magical?
Will a man become more youthful after having a woman?
Mu Junyan put down the pen in his hand and said, "I just came back to celebrate my mother's birthday. But it doesn't have to be a big deal, just one table for my family will do."
"Then... do the second and third rooms need to send invitations?"
Mu Junyan thought for a moment and said, "Just send it off. Tell me, if you want to come, then come. If you don't want to come, it's okay."
Zhou Chunyu became even more curious.
The second and third branches of the Mu family had a quarrel over separation the year their master inherited the title. They hated their master's cruelty and ruthlessness, so he drove them out of the Duke's Mansion and they rarely had any contact with each other since then.
The master has changed his personality and become gentler.
"Tell someone to send this to Shopkeeper Qiu of Linlang Tower, using the best warm jade."
Zhou Chunyu took what Mu Junyan had just drawn and took a look at it.
It turned out to be a hairpin with white magnolia flowers.
Oh my God, my lord actually draws hairpins for women.
Miss Gu Huan is very lucky.
Zhou Chunyu carefully put away the painting and walked away with a mysterious look on his face.
Along the way, my mind was full of thoughts: should I quietly prepare the materials for the wedding?
…
Gu Huan woke up, her eyes full of tears.
Donghua and Dongqing were also happy when they saw this.
After serving her lunch, Zhou Zhilan came and brought a tall and handsome man with her.
Gu Huan was lying down, squinting her eyes and sunbathing her back. When she heard the sound, she raised her body and saw a strange man standing outside the yard. She was so frightened that she quickly got up, her whole body twitched and she grimaced in pain.
I drank ginseng soup last night and didn’t feel anything, but after a good sleep I felt like my whole body was falling apart.
Gu Huan secretly blamed Mu Junyan in her heart.
Zhou Zhilan looked at her and laughed. Gu Huan blushed and glared at her, saying, "What are you looking at?"
"You're getting more and more beautiful." Zhou Zhilan sat down next to her.
Gu Huan's ears turned red.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. The master asked me to bring Chiyan here, and told you to just tell him if you have anything to say."
Gu Huan looked at the man outside the window and asked in a low voice, "Is he the guard beside the Duke?"
"Yes, but he is often not in the mansion. You can't see him usually. He is mainly out on business."
Zhou Zhilan smiled mysteriously and whispered in his ear: "The master values you. He is the master's most capable person."
Gu Huan's face turned red again, and she quickly stood up and went out to greet the people in person.
Zhou Zhilan stopped him and said, "I told him to go to the main hall. You are the master."
Gu Huan felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Is she the master?
In her own home, she had never been respected as the master, but in the Duke's Mansion she became the master.
"Your name is Chi Yan?" Gu Huan looked up at the man who was about the same height as Mu Junyan, trying to bring out a little of the aura of a master.
If such a person does not obey her from the bottom of his heart, he will not do his best.
"Yes, please."
Chi Yan looked at the ground and replied in a deep voice.
Gu Huan looked at Zhou Zhilan and she immediately said, "I have something else to do, you guys chat."
Gu Huan's eyes were slightly warm, and she personally sent Zhou Zhilan to the door.
Zhou Zhilan whispered, "Don't be afraid, just tell him, he will do his best."
"Um."
Gu Huan took a deep breath, straightened her chest and head, turned back to the house, and gestured to the man, "Please sit down."
Chi Yan bowed and said, "I dare not. Please give me your orders, young lady."
Gu Huan did not force it. She silently organized her words and said, "I have a secret matter that I want to investigate. Please help me investigate it secretly."
Chi Yan didn't say anything and waited for her to continue.
It was also the first time for Gu Huan to use such a powerful person, and she felt a little scared.
The hand holding the handkerchief was shaking a little. I took several deep breaths and tried to calm myself down.
"I... suspect that I was switched with my aunt when I was young. My biological mother should be the mistress of the Gu Mansion."
Chi Yan had been listening with his head down, and when he heard the little girl's trembling voice with a crying tone, he couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly.
The little girl lowered her head slightly, but you could see that the corners of her eyes were red, and she really looked like she was about to cry.
The pitiful appearance made Chi Yan feel very uncomfortable.
He seldom dealt with women. When his master asked him to come over, he knew her identity, but he did not expect her to be such a delicate and pitiful little girl.
How could a girl like this live to the age of seventeen in the hands of evil people?
He couldn't help but blurt out: "I know about this."
Gu Huan looked up suddenly upon hearing this, and was so surprised that she almost stood up: "You, you know? Why do you know?"
Chi Yan: “…”
Did he say that the master sent him to investigate her background?
Gu Huan saw that he didn't say anything for a long time and muttered to herself, she had never told anyone about this.
But his mouth seemed to be sewn shut, and it seemed like she had no ability to pry it open.
After thinking about it, I decided to forget it. Anyway, if I asked him to help me check, he would definitely know the information.
Since he knew it, he must have found out something.
Gu Huan was a little excited: "Did you find out anything?"
"Gu Wanru's wet nurse..."
Gu Huan stood up suddenly, her tone changing with excitement: "Have you seen her?"
"yes."
Gu Huan didn't care to be shy and stepped forward quickly, standing in front of Chi Yan: "Can you tell me what you found out? I...I..."
A beautiful face suddenly appeared before his eyes, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw those watery eyes.
Take two steps back quickly.
No wonder Akabane said she was a fairy, she could captivate people at first sight.
Gu Huan was anxious and was about to catch up when she saw a tall figure walking quickly towards the door and suddenly standing between her and Chi Yan.
"My Lord, why are you here?"
Gu Huan was frightened by the dark face and stuttered.
Mu Junyan turned around and looked at Chi Yan coldly.
A dark cloud floated across Chi Yan’s forehead.
He... didn't seem to do anything.
The little girl took two steps back when she approached him.
Mu Junyan reached out and took Gu Huan's hand, led her to the soft couch, sat down himself, and pulled her who was in a daze.
Gu Huan sat down quickly.
His eyes glanced at him and then at Chi Yan.
I feel like I've done something wrong.
Gu Huan knew that she had behaved impolitely just now and was afraid that the Duke would misunderstand Chi Yan, so she quickly stood up and bent her knees.
"I was too impatient."
Since the Duke is here, he really wants to help her and there is nothing to hide.
"What I want to ask the Duke to help me investigate is related to my life experience."
In an instant, she thought of how to explain why she knew about the replacement.
