"And then? Did Xiao Qiu find Enzi?" Gu Xin was also quite curious about what Gu Enzi had seen, but she believed that Bai Er was telling the truth. She knew that even if she asked Bai Er, he wouldn't know either, so she couldn't help but ask other questions.
She felt that the process was somewhat thrilling!
If she were Gu En, her heart would probably jump out of her chest in fright!
"No. We hid quite well. About 15 minutes later, that Constable Liu even led Miss Zheng on a walk around the entire alley. He even told Miss Zheng to keep her weapon on her person and to shout if she sensed anything amiss. Only after he was sure no one would come out did the Fourth Young Master come to call his men. He then took his men to a noodle stall for some noodles," Bai Er said.
"So are you saying that Enzi has already discovered that Xiaoqiu is a girl?" Gu Xin asked again.
“Yes, that’s right, Third Miss. The Fourth Young Master asked me about Miss Zheng last night. You said that if he asked, I should answer him without hiding anything, so I told him everything I knew.” Bai Er paused, then added, “I also told him how the Third Miss treated Miss Zheng. I think the Fourth Young Master should understand the Third Miss’s intentions and won’t help Miss Zheng without careful consideration.”
"Oh, that's good then." Gu Xin nodded.
She was afraid that if Gu En found out the truth, and if he really liked Xiao Qiu, he might do something to help Xiao Qiu.
Since Bai Er said so, then she doesn't need to worry.
"Bai Er, Bai Er, what do you think my fourth brother's expression was like after he found out that Xiao Qiu was a girl? Was he particularly excited? Or did he mutter to himself about what he wanted to do to Xiao Qiu?" Gu Si was particularly interested in this.
"Fifth Miss, after Fourth Young Master received confirmation of the truth from me, he wasn't excited; he was rather angry. He thought you were deliberately keeping it from him to make a fool of yourself. He didn't say anything about doing anything to Miss Zheng. Anyway, everything seemed normal. He only became angry when he heard me mention the old stories of the Yong'an Marquis's mansion and wanted to immediately go there to deal with the people. However, after I told him what Miss Zheng had said to Third Miss and how Third Miss had treated Miss Zheng, Fourth Young Master calmed down. After that, he remained quite normal," Bai Er said.
"Ah? Fourth Brother actually put up with his little grumbling! It's true what they say, 'A scholar who has been away for three hours has changed his appearance'!" Gu Si silently gave a thumbs up.
She often saw her brother muttering to himself, just like Bai Er described. Logically speaking, her brother should have been muttering to himself.
But everything was normal, which was very puzzling.
"The way you use those words, be careful my dad hears you and makes you copy them," Gu Xin said with a helpless smile.
"That's right! Third Sister, we were looking forward to seeing what Fourth Brother would think when he found out Xiao Qiu was a girl. It's such a pity we didn't get to see it. What a shame." Gu Si sighed with great regret.
"Isn't that right? If we had known Enzi was going out last night, we should have gone with her! Only Bai Er saw him discover the truth; none of us had a chance to see it. I bet Enzi would have acted perfectly normal in a moment. Sigh, what a pity, what a pity, it's such a pity!" Gu Xin sighed repeatedly.
Bai Er stood to the side, unsure how to persuade the two young ladies.
