Chapter 462 The Female Supporting Character Who Was Reborn as a Female Cannon Fodder 7
Glass Garden.
Gu Yuexi hadn't said a word since he came back from the old lady, as if he had suffered a huge blow. Now he sat quietly on the bed, not feeling sleepy at all.
She clutched the quilt tightly, her dignified and beautiful face turned grim, and her mind was filled with the pain of her past life.
No! Something will happen to her grandparents in the future. She doesn’t know what happened. Now she can only hold on to Pei Jin’s thigh. She must leave the house.
She made up her mind.
"Qiongzhi, find me a set of clean maid clothes."
-
The next day.
As soon as Sheng Huan woke up, he heard news from Puhua that Gu Yuexi had left the house disguised as a maid at dawn.
This is very bold and very heroine-like. She is really not afraid of encountering danger.
However, since Gu Yuexi dared to leave the house alone, Sheng Huan decided to give her a big gift.
It's impossible to let her conceal the truth without the old lady knowing, and then blame Gu after something goes wrong.
Ji Le didn't know what her young lady was thinking. She was adding charcoal to the charcoal stove. When she heard a slight movement coming from the bed, she knew that Sheng Huan had woken up and hurried over.
"Miss, you are awake. I just added charcoal to the fire. Please warm yourself up in the quilt first. I will ask someone to get some hot water."
Sheng Huan nodded and sat up with the quilt in his arms: "The room is warm enough so I don't feel cold. It's snowing outside today. I've been lying in the house for a few days and I feel a little bored."
As Sheng Huan was talking, he began to cough lightly and looked very weak.
"It snowed a little this morning." Ji Le came over quickly to support Sheng Huan, put the pillow behind her, patted her back skillfully, and said, "I know you are bored staying alone, but your health is the most important thing. It's still more than a month before the New Year, and the weather is getting colder. I was freezing when I went out for a while just now."
Ji Le continued to nag: "Madam has also told you that Miss can't stand the cold any longer."
Sheng Huan took out the almost cooled hot water bottle and handed it to her. He smiled helplessly, and his weak voice became lively: "I dare not disobey my mother's words."
"Our Tang'er is so mischievous. When mother came here, she heard you making up stories about her in private."
A smiling voice sounded from outside, and then Gu walked in and let the maid help her take off her fox fur cloak.
Sheng Huan looked at her and spoke softly, with a little girl's coquettishness: "How dare a daughter make up stories about mother? It's obvious that she doesn't want to make mother worry."
"Mother, why did you come so early today? Why didn't you take a rest?"
"I just sent your father to court this morning and there was nothing else to do, so I came to see you."
As soon as Gu came over, she held her daughter's hand and rubbed it up and down, frowning slightly: "Why is it still so cold? Did you sleep well tonight?"
Gu is 32 years old this year. Although she is already the mother of three children, she still can't hide her beauty. Her face is like a silver basin, her temperament is dignified, and she has the bearing of a lady from a wealthy family.
"Don't worry, mother. Your daughter is sleeping well."
Sheng Huan did sleep very well. Her cold hands and feet did not affect her sleep quality. She also found that the body temperature of this body seemed to be lower than that of ordinary people.
Gu didn't quite believe it. She looked at Sheng Huan lovingly and said, "Don't even think about going out these few days. Stay at home and take good care of yourself. In a few days, your mother will take you to the farm outside Beijing to soak in the hot springs."
"Take a hot spring bath?" Sheng Huan was a little confused.
"Yes, hot springs." Gu explained: "Your father asked the imperial physician yesterday, and he said that hot springs can drive away the cold."
"Mother loves me." Sheng Huan nodded and rubbed against Mother Gu's arms. She pretended to be casual: "If mother takes me, my two sisters must be taken out of the house to play together. It's boring to stay at home in the winter."
Gu lowered her head and tapped her daughter's forehead: "Don't worry about them. It doesn't mean they want to go to the hot springs. They won't disturb you from recuperating. Just stay at home."
That farm was her dowry, and she didn't want to take anyone else with her.
"Okay then." Sheng Huan's eyes turned slightly, as if he saw something, and suddenly said: "By the way, my elder sister asked me for the show a few days ago, but I forgot to give it to her. Ji Le, take the show and send it to Liuliyuan later."
Upon hearing this, Gu said directly: "Jile wants to serve you personally. It's cold outside, how can you bring the air conditioner in? Mother will be back soon, just ask Mother Xu to send her over on the way. It's no big deal."
Sheng Huan originally wanted Ji Le to find out the clues, but after hearing what Gu said, he felt that Mother Xu was more suitable.
She looked at Mother Xu: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Mother Xu."
-
Gu didn't stay in Yuhuayuan for long. After all, the New Year was approaching and she had a lot of things to do, including preparing New Year gifts. After leaving Yuhuayuan, she told Mother Xu something.
"Go to Liuli Garden and watch carefully later."
Girls who fall in love are sometimes too irrational, and Gu was also afraid that Gu Yuexi would cause trouble.
"Yes, ma'am."
Glass Garden.
When Mother Xu came over, she found that something was wrong with the maid serving in the inner room, and she was not allowed to go in.
As a favorite of the mistress of the Shangshu Mansion, there was almost no reason for her to be refused a meeting. The eldest lady had never refused to meet her before, and Mother Xu was puzzled.
Qiongzhi's palms were sweating, and she suppressed her guilt and anxiety and calmed herself down: "Mother Xu, is there something wrong? Our young lady was copying scriptures too late last night and hasn't woken up yet."
Mother Xu found it even more strange. Except for being irrational towards Wang Yeling, the eldest daughter of their family was very strict with herself in other aspects. In particular, she never slept in. No matter how late she slept that day, she would get up on time the next day. For this, the old lady praised her for being the most knowledgeable about etiquette and having the demeanor of a lady of the royal family.
Mother Xu said calmly, "The eldest lady asked for the third lady's sample before, and the Madam asked me to send it over."
Qiongzhi was afraid of saying more and making more mistakes, so she didn't dare to look at Mother Xu at all, and just said, "Thank you, Mother Xu."
Mother Xu shook her head: "The things have been delivered. Madam has something else to do, so I will leave first."
"Take care, Madam Xu."
Qiongzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, Mother Xu suddenly turned around at this moment.
-
As for Gu Yuexi, she had no idea what was going on in the mansion when she left. She just felt her eyelids twitching and had a bad premonition.
After she left the house, she spent money to hire some people and told them to notify her if anyone fainted.
She has made some preparations.
Afterwards, after thinking about it, Gu Yuexi went to her grandparents' house and attended the snow-viewing banquet with her cousins.
At the snow-viewing banquet, everyone was brewing tea, appreciating the snow, reciting poems and painting. Gu Yuexi did not join in, hiding behind the crowd as a little transparent. She had been waiting for the time in her previous life, her mind tense.
"Miss Gu."
As she was walking around distracted, a handsome young man came towards her.
When Gu Yuexi saw him, his heart was filled with hatred, his eyes changed, and he wanted to rush up and kill him on the spot.
She clenched her palms tightly and smelled blood in her mouth. She was afraid that she would lose control, so she turned and left.
"Miss Gu." Wang Yeling was puzzled. He felt that Gu Yuexi was not as enthusiastic as usual today, but he did not take it to heart. He walked over quickly and asked.
"Miss Gu, are you alone? Why don't you see your sisters?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuexi's murderous intent became even stronger. Wang Yeling wanted to ask Gu Yuetang, right? In her previous life, she was really blind and could not see that he always asked about Gu Yuetang without leaving any trace.
Seeing that the time was almost up, she ignored Wang Yeling and walked away.
Wang Yeling looked at the figure walking away quickly, feeling very surprised by Gu Yuexi's behavior, even unhappy.
Gu Yuexi had no idea that Wang Yeling was unhappy.
The carriage was moving slowly on the road, and the cousins' voices were chattering with concern, but Gu Yuexi didn't listen carefully and kept her eyes on the outside. If she wasn't afraid of disrupting their first encounter and making this life-saving grace meaningless, she wouldn't have repeated her third sister's experience.
There is a difference between providing timely assistance and adding icing on the cake.
Gu Yuexi sat in the carriage and waited until the carriage was running smoothly without encountering the unconscious person outside the carriage. She couldn't help but tremble.
How could it be, how could Pei Jin not show up? !
Clearly, she did everything according to the trajectory of her third sister's previous life. She even left from the snow-viewing banquet. Every step was unchanged.
"Yuexi, are you feeling unwell?" The second young lady from the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion looked at her cousin worriedly.
Gu Yuexi was in a daze, as if she didn't hear anything. She didn't know where she was on the road when her carriage was stopped.
Outside the carriage, the butler of the Shangshu Mansion bowed and said, "I am the butler of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice. I have no intention of stopping the carriage. I just heard that the eldest daughter of the mansion is in the carriage. I am here to take her home on the orders of the old lady and the lady."
When she was taken back, Gu Yuexi didn't even wait for the person she hired to deliver the message.
