Jixiang subconsciously wiped her forehead, noticing there was no sweat, and then looked at Gu Nian in horror.
Gu Nian crossed her arms and smiled meaningfully.
Zhou Yuan has a problem, absolutely a problem.
Approaching their house was definitely purposeful; this servant did a good job!
"Miss Gu, why are you joking with me like this!" Jixiang said aggrievedly, but she became wary in her heart.
This Miss Gu is trying to trick him into revealing information!
They seem particularly interested in his son; I mustn't let anything slip!
"Hehe, Jixiang, how about we play another joke?" Gu Nian chuckled and asked.
"No, no, no, I don't joke with girls." Jixiang thought the pretty girl in front of him looked like a ferocious beast when she laughed, how scary!
"Jixiang, is Zhou Yuan the grandson of Master Zhou, the young master of the Lu family?" Gu Nian asked with a smile.
"Niannian, go get a knife and a rope, I forgot to bring them." At this moment, Gu Laosi drove over in his oxcart and shouted before he even got close.
Gu Nian silently rolled her eyes.
Uncle Si, you're so impatient. Couldn't you have waited until we got there to say something?
I was so close, just a tiny bit more, and I could have seen the servant's expression. His eyes were clearly different just now, but he was drawn to your voice.
Gu Nian was so angry!
“Okay, Fourth Uncle!” Gu Nian replied, then looked at Ji Xiang, “So, Brother Ji Xiang, was my guess right?”
“Miss Gu has quite the imagination. I’ll have to tell this joke to my young master later,” Jixiang said with a smile.
"Is that so?" Gu Nian gave him a half-smile, then turned and went inside to get her things.
"Phew!" Jixiang patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief, but before she could finish exhaling, Gu Nian, who had walked to the door, suddenly turned around, and Jixiang froze.
Gu Nian glanced at it, said nothing, and went inside.
The people inside had finished talking, and when they heard Gu Laosi's voice outside, they all planned to go out and help.
At the entrance to the main room, Lu Zheng said he needed to go to the outhouse, and Cai Xiaolian pointed him in the right direction, so he went there.
Gu Nian was getting something from the kitchen when she saw Lu Zheng walk past the kitchen without looking to either side. She glanced at Gu Xin, her eyes darting around, and she made a decision.
She ran out with a knife and rope, handed them to Cai Xiaolian, whispered a few words in her ear, and then ran out the door.
Everyone was preparing to lift the wild boar, and apart from Gu Shouxin and Grandma Gu, no one else paid any attention to her.
Gu Nian ran from the front gate around the courtyard wall to the soil above the back ditch, then easily and nimbly jumped down and quietly entered through the back door of the kitchen.
At that moment, Gu Xin was at the front door of the kitchen, and Lu Zheng happened to be passing by the front door after using the outhouse.
Gu Xin kept in mind Gu Nian's words and stayed away from strange people, so she stood still at the door with her head down, wanting Lu Zheng to leave first.
"Xin, Xin Xin, were you scared just now?" Lu Zheng's voice was very gentle, soft and gentle, as if afraid of scaring away the little white rabbit. He wanted to call Xin'er again, but thinking of his loss of control just now, he decided not to.
"No." Gu Xin hesitated for a moment before answering.
"That's good," Lu Zheng said, then looked at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin felt very uncomfortable being stared at like that, and pursed her lips, saying, "Young Master Zhou, you're blocking my way."
"Xin Xin, how are you? Have you been wronged?" Lu Zheng asked the question he had wanted to ask most since his rebirth.
As soon as he finished asking the question, Lu Zheng was hit on the head by a small stone.
