Mian Niang

Gu Wenguwu and Yue Yang turned their horses around and followed Gu Xin back to the Gu household.

When he went back, everything in the room had already been cleaned up. Gu Baifu, whose head was wrapped in a white cloth, didn't dare to come over this time, and could only secretly watch Gu Xin and the people behind him from a distance.

Gu Han didn't even look at him and went straight into the room. However, the moment the door closed, he stopped moving, turned his back to the servants, and said, "I want to chase that woman out."

Hearing this, Gu Baifu's body froze, his heart suddenly became afraid to speak up for his niece, and he could only watch as the door closed, then go and ask for Gu Wenguwu's help.

However, Gu Wu only sneered, while Gu Wen snorted coldly, "What are you begging for, it's better to quickly send her away. Otherwise, we might be implicated and punished together.

After thinking about it, he felt that using "Xiao Xiang" here was inappropriate, but he couldn't think of a suitable method to use it, so his expression couldn't help but become even more unsightly.

Gu Baifu secretly cursed in his heart, wasn't his status the same as a normal village woman? So what if she was his niece?

Who had a girl? They didn't think it would be best for them to climb to the top. What they thought was right.

However, he couldn't say these words out loud. He could only listen to others laugh and scold him in his heart.

If he woke up early in the morning and saw a sunny day, he would be in a different mood today.

When Mian Niang finished making the tofu and fetching water, she saw the sun that was gradually rising from the east side. It was a fiery red, and when she looked at it, she felt that she was in a very good mood, without any haze.

Gu Yue didn't come to find him, so yesterday's incident passed peacefully.

Isn't it just a good thing?

Mian Niang carried the water and walked back. When she met the neighbors in the village, they greeted her softly, and were actually no longer introverted like before. It could be seen how relaxed she was right now.

Ye Zichen smiled softly at the dumb guy, who also came to fetch water, and was actually stunned by what he saw.

However, she didn't know this, so she carried the water back home.

Before he even reached the entrance of the house, he saw a person standing at the village entrance.

Her heart skipped a beat and her hands loosened up. The bucket fell to the ground and splashed water all over her feet. She woke up as if she had just woken up from a dream and that person had already walked in front of her.

"Master asked me to deliver a message to you. He wants to meet you today."

Mian Niang muddle-headedly picked up the bucket and returned to the well.

Stupid Mei was still there. She asked worriedly, but she didn't make any sound. It was as if she was scared to death.

Since she couldn't get the answers out, Mei Laozi didn't dare to ask anymore, but he didn't dare to let her fetch the water. He left the wheel at the bottom of the well and went up to two buckets of water, calling them "Sister-in-Law".

He watched as her wooden frame hung up the carrying pole while the bucket was lifted. In the end, he still couldn't feel reassured. He picked up the water and followed far behind. He was reassured when he saw that she had entered his cousin's house.

However, he couldn't recall where he had seen him before, nor why he was standing at the village entrance.

Gu Wu felt bitter in his heart.

He came here to deliver a letter, but this message wasn't just sent. Although his family's Master didn't say it, his expression clearly told him that if he didn't see this person today, then he would definitely be held responsible.

Since that female mother didn't give him a definite answer, he naturally didn't dare to return. At this moment, even though he didn't want to, he could only wait here, waiting for that female mother to give him a definite answer so that he could report back.

He waited for a long time, but no one came out. Instead, he waited for the smoke and fire coming from every household.

Taking in a deep breath, he suddenly felt hunger in his stomach.

The coarse tea light rice also had a fragrance, especially for someone who had not eaten breakfast yet. Oh, I forgot, Master was angry yesterday, he had not eaten lunch or dinner yet.

In a flash, he hadn't eaten anything for three meals.

How could Gu Wu not be hungry?

After waiting for a long time, he finally arrived at the gate of Mei Family and opened it once again. He hurriedly straightened his body and stretched his neck to take a look, but the reality was disappointing.

That old woman had good eyesight. When she saw that he was dressed and leading a horse behind him, she knew that he wasn't an ordinary person. She nodded at him as a form of greeting and then drove the carriage out of the village.

Seeing that she had left, Gu Wu's heart became excited, he immediately walked to her house, before he could do anything, the door was pushed open from the inside.

He was afraid that he would make this female mother fall over, so he quickly explained: "I'm just here to see what you're doing."

Mian Niang did not take his explanation to heart to heart, but she did not make it difficult for him either, and only said: "Tell your clan's Master, I will be waiting for him at the mountain."

Not the inn in town, okay, too far.

If he did not go to the river, his vision would be wide and he would be caught red-handed.

Deep mountains and old forests? No one would be able to see him after he drilled his way in. Gu Wu thought about it too much, and then thought that it was good too. With her identity, he was indeed not suitable to be with the Master in the open.

It is also a good choice to just be a pair of dewy mandarin ducks.

Just into the woods.

Gu Wu was at a loss. He felt that if he really did something like that, it would be detrimental to his identity as the Young Master of the family.

If word were to spread out, their young master would force a female mother, who was already engaged to him, to be his concubine. How could such a thing be known?

No matter what, it was a disgrace. Since his young master wasn't a good person, he could only weigh the pros and cons and make the best plan.

The best plan was to go back first and inform their young master. That was the most important thing.

He turned and rode out of the village, and Mian Niang also turned and entered the courtyard. When he came out again, he carried a shovel on his shoulder.

The Elementary Scholar looked at her through the open window and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to pick up the beans? Why did you pick up the ironwood instead of carrying the hoe?"

But because he hated talking to her, he didn't ask her.

As she watched him leave, a different thought emerged in her mind. "Let's go. If what I say cannot be done, my mother will definitely not let you off lightly."

Mian Niang's heart was heavy, how could she care about what he thought? Carrying the shovel, she climbed up the mountain quickly.

Although this part of the forest had existed for a long time, it was not considered particularly large. Although it was said to be filled with mountains and forests, the wild beasts that roamed about were only hare, pheasant, wild boar and foxes.

It was precisely because there weren't any particularly ferocious beasts that the villagers dared to come up the mountain to chop firewood, or to set up a trap and catch a hare or pheasant. If they were lucky, they would be able to catch a mountain boar, but that was a long time ago.

When Sister Apricot had told her this story as a story, she hadn't paid much attention to it. Today, when she had been forced into a corner, she had been moved.

Since traps could kill wild boars, naturally, they could also fight bullies.

That bully bullies men and women, but he's even more despicable than those wild boars that bring disaster to the crops.

She was already married. It didn't matter what kind of person the Elementary Scholar was, she should always follow the path of a woman. Naturally, she couldn't be a little girl for others. Furthermore, it wasn't as if she hadn't heard others mention it before.

She was just an ordinary girl who wanted to live her life in peace and not be afraid of any hardship. As long as she was not bullied, it would be fine.

That foppish young lord, how could she possibly agree to his request? She had already gone against the rules, but because she was afraid of death, she did not dare to say it out loud. She had been swallowing her anger.

Mian Niang walked all the way into the depths of the forest, and after searching for half a day, she finally found a larger trap, and looking to continue searching, she realized that it might not be too late, so she quickly tied the rope she prepared beforehand onto the nearest tree, and then tied it to it and started to dig.

When Gu Wu returned, Gu Xin was eating breakfast.

When he thought about how he had become stupid for the female mother, drinking, acting rashly, and even not eating anything.

Who was he, the son of the Gu family? He should have been in high spirits, even if it was to come to such a small place to avoid disaster, he should still be doing things happily, not being led around by the nose by a female mother and tormented to such a sorry state. Therefore, when Gu Wu left in the morning, he made the kitchen bring food over.

Gu Xin had been eating.

Gu Wen, who was standing behind him, remained silent. In truth, he had been calculating in his heart that the egg in his Young Master's hand had already eaten for fifteen minutes, and it still hadn't finished yet.

Master was the biggest, he did not want to say anything, but seeing that Gu Wu had entered, he saw his Young Master's shoulder sway, but he did not move.

In fact, he almost thought it was an illusion just because of that slight shake.

He blinked his eyes lightly and looked over to Ye Xiao. His master's expression seemed to be normal.

Seeing Gu Wu walk in, Gu Xin did not immediately ask any further questions, but instead ate the egg before opening his mouth.

"What did she say?"

He did not look at Gu Wu, but instead picked up the rice in front of him. He stuck out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of pork chop.

He was a martial artist and had consumed a lot of physical strength. Thus, he rarely ate porridge or other snacks. Even in the morning, he was used to eating meat and rice steamed buns.

It had only been placed there for so long that the ribs were already a little cold and not so tasty. However, he did not choose and just put it in his mouth.

He was a popinjay, but not a spoiled one. There wasn't much to pay attention to in life.
