Snap!
The cup in Mu Qianchen's hand shattered. He didn't say anything, but the rise and fall of his chest showed his anger, and the broken porcelain pieces slowly turned into powder.
He pushed Gu Yunran out of the door with a sudden push, and then with a bang, the door was slammed shut.
Gu Yunran staggered and almost fell down.
Qianli instinctively reached out to help, then retracted his hand, "Miss Gu, are you okay?"
Gu Yunran was a little confused for a moment. When she reacted, she realized that she had been kicked out by Mu Qianchen. She shook her head awkwardly: "It's okay."
But his face looked very pale.
"I send you."
Gu Yunran was about to refuse, but Qianli insisted on sending her off, so she had to agree.
"Thank you, Guard Qianli!"
"You're welcome."
Qianli sent Gu Yunran out. Taohua saw that her face was not good, and hurriedly asked with concern: "Madam, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Gu Yunran smiled bitterly.
"Let's go."
Qianli opened the curtain and let Gu Yunran go up first. Taohua looked at him in a daze for a while and asked, "Hey, why don't you leave?"
Qianli rubbed his nose and put on a smile: "Shengjing has been uneasy lately." He approached Taohua and whispered in her ear, "The Northern Barbarian spies are active everywhere and have killed many people. My master is worried and asked me to take you back."
He said the last sentence in a loud voice and Gu Yunran heard it clearly.
Taohua said: "Then thank you for your help!"
After saying that, she got on the carriage and sat next to Gu Yunran.
The street was ten miles long, with the Shogunate on the east side and the Lu Mansion on the west side. It didn't take long before they arrived at the gate of the Lu Mansion.
"Miss Gu, we're here."
Gu Yunran closed her eyes and rested in the carriage. When she heard Qianli's words, she slowly opened her eyes and Taohua helped her get off the carriage.
Taohua said indifferently, "Thank you, Guard Qianli!"
Qianli scratched his head and chuckled: "See you later."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared into the night.
Taohua helped Gu Yunran into the yard through the side door, but just as they left, a figure emerged from the dark corner.
Fan Meiniang looked at Gu Yunran's back, and she actually felt that she had a woman's charm. Then she recalled that a man had just sent her back at the door...
"Gu Yunran secretly met with a man in the middle of the night?" Fan Meiniang was shocked by her own guess. Suddenly, she felt excited and happy.
If the old lady and the fourth brother knew about this, Fan Meiniang could imagine how miserable Gu Yunran's end would be.
"God is helping me."
With this handle, she will definitely be able to pull Gu Yunran down from the position of mistress, but the evidence is insufficient at the moment, so she cannot act rashly.
Fan Meiniang returned to Nianmei Pavilion and lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, thinking all night about how to catch Gu Yunran in bed.
Thinking of this, she almost forgot about Zhenzhu not coming home all night. She fell into a dazed sleep at dawn. Before Lu Qingzhou went on duty, he came to see her. Seeing that her eyes were black, he asked distressedly, "Are you feeling unwell? Why are your eyes black?"
Fan Meiniang lay in Lu Qingzhou's arms. "I had a stomachache last night, so I asked Zhenzhu to go find a doctor. But she hasn't come back yet. I'm worried about her."
Lu Qingzhou tucked the hair by her ear behind her ear and flicked her forehead with his bent finger. "She's just a servant, what are you worried about? I'm afraid she might have gotten lost."
"No, Fourth Brother, Pearl is not my maid, she is my sister."
"Can you please send someone to look for him?" She pulled Lu Qingzhou's sleeve and begged.
What if Zhenzhu fails to accomplish her mission and runs away? Wouldn't she be worried all day long?
"You are so kind." Lu Qingzhou kissed Fan Meiniang on the forehead and said, "I will send someone to look for her right away."
"Fourth brother, that's great."
Fan Meiniang snuggled in Lu Qingzhou's arms like a little bird, making Lu Qingzhou feel that he was a real man at this moment.
Suddenly, Fan Meiniang cried out, "Hey, Fourth Brother, what happened to your face?"
"That bitch Gu Yunran beat me."
"She's so bold! A husband is a woman's heaven, how dare she?" Fan Meiniang looked at Lu Qingzhou's red and swollen face and cried distressedly: "I can't bear to scold you, how could Gu Yunran do this to you?"
Lu Qingzhou hugged Fan Meiniang and said, "Gu Yunran is so ungrateful. I will make her regret it!"
Not long after, the servant sent by Lu Qingzhou came back and said that Zhenzhu had died accidentally in the moat in front of the doctor's house.
The doctor's house caught fire unexpectedly, and someone from the mansion has gone to claim Zhenzhu's body.
The stone in Fan Meiniang's heart finally fell, but she still pretended to cry very sadly. Lu Qingzhou had to coax her for a while before going to work.
Gu Yunran sneezed as soon as he got up in the morning.
"Madam, the weather has suddenly changed. It's a bit chilly today."
Taohua took a cloak and put it on Gu Yunran's shoulders, "Be careful not to catch a cold."
Zhuye dressed her up.
After getting dressed, Gu Yunran said to Zhuye, "Let's go and pay our respects to the old lady."
"Yes, ma'am."
Zhuye said this, turned around and went into the house, holding the account book, and followed Gu Yunran to Baomo Hall.
As soon as he reached the gate of Mobaotang courtyard, Gu Yunran saw an old man wearing a white robe and with white hair standing in the hall.
His white beard was a foot long, and his wrinkled face was so thin that only skin and bones were visible.
He counted on his fingers and it seemed to be true. He kept chattering about something, which made the old lady laugh.
