Chapter 159 If I jump down, will my mother forgive me?
The warm sun shines on the courtyard of the marquis's mansion, and the fine light and shadow pass through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
Chu Ruohan looked at Xuan Ge'er in the cradle. The little guy was full and sleeping soundly, with a healthy blush on his pink face.
It seems that the new wet nurse is very competent.
Brother Xuan was able to eat and sleep well, and he recovered quickly and no longer had a fever.
"How is Brother Yun?" Chu Ruohan turned her head and asked Yuling beside her softly.
Yuling thought of Gu Yun's appearance just now and smiled, "The young master has become much more obedient. He came several times but was turned away by this servant."
Chu Ruohan nodded slightly. It was time to teach this little guy a lesson and let him understand the importance of trust.
At the same time, on the other side of Hongmeng Courtyard, Gu Yun lay on his bed, looking listless like a frost-bitten eggplant.
His usually lively eyes had lost their luster and his whole body looked listless.
His mother was really angry and didn't even want to see him. He ran over several times but was turned back every time.
This made him feel both aggrieved and anxious.
He also couldn't tell his mother that it was his brother's men who killed the bad guys.
My royal brother said that I must not reveal my identity, and I will come back to pick him up after everything is done.
On one side is his elder brother, the emperor, and on the other side is his loving mother. It’s so difficult!
My dear brother, when will you come to pick me up?
This way I don't have to hide it from my mother...
At this time, Haitang came in with a plate of snacks and looked at the little man on the bed. "Young Master, the kitchen has made lotus seed soup. It's sweet and delicious."
Gu Yun didn't even raise his eyelids, and replied weakly: "If you don't want to eat, eat it yourself!"
His little face was still drooping, and he had no appetite for food.
Fortunately, Daddy wasn't angry and continued to teach him calligraphy every day...
However, Gu Yun's mind was not on practicing calligraphy at the moment. His pen moved randomly across the paper, and the words he wrote were crooked and out of place, completely lacking his usual serious demeanor.
Haitang said: Women need to be coaxed, how should he coax his mother?
Not only him, Gu Junze also felt uncomfortable these two days.
Chu Ruohan finally kicked Yun Ge'er out and let him sleep alone.
It's not easy to get a chance to be alone, but another one comes.
The meat is right next to my mouth, but I can’t eat it.
The whole person is unsatisfied.
Gu Junze lowered his head and looked at the words written by Gu Yun. His brows gradually furrowed and his face became darker and darker. "Focus."
Gu Yun was startled by the sudden voice.
She raised her head and looked at her father's serious face. Her eyes instantly turned red and she cried, "Daddy, will mommy abandon me?"
Tears welled up in the little guy's eyes and were about to fall.
Gu Junze's heart softened, and he reached out to hold him on his lap, looking directly into the little guy's eyes with gentle yet firm eyes, "No, you will always be your parents' child."
The little guy was so touched that he hugged Gu Junze's neck tightly and rubbed his neck.
The warm touch on his neck made Gu Junze's heart soften.
This was his first time being a father to someone, and he didn't know how to be one.
He only remembered that when he was young, Marquis Anyang treated Gu Chengan and Gu Chengyan with great care and would protect them even when they made mistakes.
But when it comes to myself, there is only endless alienation. That feeling is fake and cold.
Gu Junze gently stroked the little fellow's back and said in a gentle voice, "If you don't want to talk, you don't have to. But you have to stay in the mansion. If you want to go out, you can tell Daddy..."
He planned to select one person from the shadow guards to protect Yun Ge'er closely.
He was alone before and could do anything, but now that he has a wife and a child, he should build up some power of his own and put it in the mansion...
"Then mother, when will you see me? Daddy will go and beg for mercy!" Gu Yun began to act coquettishly, pulling Gu Junze's sleeve with her little hand and shaking it gently.
Gu Junze smiled helplessly. This little guy would use this trick again.
He knew in his heart that begging was useless, as Chu Ruohan was determined to leave him alone for a few days.
It is just to make him understand that he should not hide things from his family and should not distrust them.
After a few days, when Chu Ruohan's anger has subsided, she will naturally meet him.
Gu Junze sighed softly, "Brother Xuan is sick and is being taken care of in our house. Your mother needs to take care of him, so don't disturb her for now..."
Gu Yun couldn't listen to the rest of the words, his mind was full of thoughts about whether Brother Xuan was sick?
Seeing that he was absent-minded, Gu Junze thought that one shouldn't be impatient when practicing calligraphy, so he let him go...
Gu Yun and Haitang were walking on the way back. The little guy's mind was full of Xuan Ge'er's illness and his mother was busy taking care of him.
If I get sick too, will my mother feel distressed and stop being angry with him?
But how can one get sick?
He was thinking to himself when his eyes inadvertently fell on the lotus pond not far away.
It was early winter now, and the lotus flowers in the pond had long since withered, leaving only the broken lotus leaves shivering in the cold wind.
He would definitely get sick if he jumped.
Gu Yun made up his mind and started to think of ways to get Haitang away.
He rolled his eyes, pretended to be surprised, pointed to a place not far away and shouted, "Sister Haitang, look, there's a little rabbit over there!"
Haitang looked in the direction he pointed, and saw only a patch of withered flowers, with no trace of the rabbit.
Puzzled, she parted the dry branches and leaves, searching carefully, muttering, "Young Master, where is the rabbit?"
Just as Haitang was concentrating on finding the rabbit, Gu Yun gritted his teeth and ran towards the lotus pond without any hesitation.
With a "splash", he jumped into the freezing cold pool water.
Haitang heard the sound and turned around suddenly. Seeing Gu Yun struggling in the water, she turned pale with fright.
"Someone come, something bad has happened, the young master has fallen into the water."
Ying Qing jumped into the water and picked him up. The little guy lay on his shoulder and cried loudly, "Why is the water so deep?"
He remembered that when the servants were digging lotus roots, the water was only up to their waists!
Drowned him!
At this moment, Gu Yun was soaked to the skin, his lips turning purple from the cold. He shivered constantly, mumbling incoherently, "It's cold, so cold... Mother."
Ying Qing hugged the trembling Gu Yun and ran into the room.
Doctor Qian was also urgently summoned. He carried his medicine box and walked into the house in a hurry.
As soon as he saw Gu Yun's pale face and purple lips, Doctor Qian immediately put down the medicine box and quickly walked to the bedside.
While reaching out and touching Gu Yun's forehead, he anxiously ordered: "Go and prepare hot water, quickly! Soak well and drive away the cold, don't let the root of the disease develop!"
Haitang was already frightened out of her wits. Doctor Qian frowned, "Don't just stand there. Go make some ginger soup."
"Oh, okay." Haitang came to her senses after hearing the order, responded in a panic, turned around and ran out.
After a while, several maids came in carrying a steaming bathtub.
