Daughter-in-law of the Marquis Family - Chapter 283
Because Gu Heng came back, the funeral finally had a “backbone” figure. Below the Marquis, he was the most legitimate heir and the only filial son in front of him, presiding over all affairs.
And Gu Guan never appeared in front of the spirit again.
When she didn’t go, Xie Jingxi had no need to go. She thought that rather than stay here and be sad, she might as well let their mother and son go back to Guangdong first.
“Guan’er, Gu Yun and I can’t go back for the time being. It’s good for you to go back. Once Sheng Luan sends troops to Luzon, it’s always bad for no one at home to take care of him. What do you say?”
Gu Guan supported his head and sighed, “you’re right, but since you’re here, wait for the funeral, but it’s only a day or two.” Gu Guan turned his head and looked at her, “is it the meaning of the king of Jin to stay with your eldest brother, to serve the waiting house… Will there be any more?”
Even Gu Guan figured out the key. He knew that the king of Jin was incompatible with Anfeng Houfu. If Gu Yun stayed in the capital, it would be difficult for him to inherit the Houfu. If Gu Yun inherited the Houfu, the Houfu would be changed. The fate of others might not be very good.
“Yes, I don’t want to stay at all.” Xie Jingxi didn’t hide it from her, “but there must be an end. Even if your eldest brother doesn’t want Hou’s house, Hou’s house won’t come to any good end. I’m afraid it will be worse.”
“Forget it, sooner or later, I don’t want to ask. I’ll clean up later and take Sheng last first. The child seems to dislike Hou’s house. He runs out when he’s free. Alas! Speaking of this boy, I haven’t seen him for a long time. Where have you been?”
“Don’t worry. I’ll ask Fang Dai to find him back. You should go back and clean up.”
Xie Jingxi got up and went to the yard. Without the shadow of Fang Dai, he went out of the yard to find Sheng last. Sheng last was used to following Sheng Jinye since childhood. He played with the dolls in the street all day and didn’t care about his identity. But in the capital, especially in the circle of nobles, most of them paid attention to identity tutoring and rarely let their brothers and sisters go out to play. The dolls didn’t know anything, It’s not good to pull other people’s brothers and sisters around.
In particular, the Marquis house has a funeral these days. There are many dignitaries and it’s hard to talk. Therefore, Xie Jingxi didn’t look at anyone, so she was worried that Sheng last would run away and couldn’t find it back.
After two rounds of searching, I couldn’t find it. I was wondering whether to go back to Fang Dai and them for help, but suddenly I saw a figure passing in front of me. In the blink of an eye, I entered the corner of the alley. It looked like a child. Xie Jingxi didn’t think much, so she walked with me.
However, when she turned around, she didn’t see anyone. She went out from this alley and passed two blocks to the market entrance. It was more lively there. Whether Sheng last would go to the market by herself to see the excitement. Xie Jingxi couldn’t help worrying. Although she wasn’t sure whether Sheng last was what she saw just now, she still followed. In case it was Sheng last, she would go home, It must be far away. It’s hard to find.
Xie Jingxi unconsciously quickened her pace. The child’s foot was slow. She took a few steps and saw the figure just around the corner. It was really Sheng last.
The child seemed to be attracted by something. He walked very fast and did not hesitate. He was unfamiliar here and was unlikely to run there without hesitation. Hou’s house was not close to the market. When she first came, she still couldn’t walk clearly, not to mention Sheng last.
No, there must be something.
Xie Jingxi had a bad feeling in her heart. Did someone see through Sheng last’s identity and go to the Sheng family? It was her carelessness. The funeral of Hou house is easy to have an accident in chaos. Someone should look after Sheng last.
“Sheng last!” Xie Jingxi shouted. She didn’t know whether he heard it or not. Anyway, she didn’t return. She quickly ran to the market entrance and was stunned for a moment.
At a glance, she saw Gu Qing smiling at her in the crowd.
He came back unexpectedly. There must have been some premeditation when Zeng died. She didn’t believe that he came back for Zeng. He was like a judge from hell. As long as he appeared, there would be no good. He took Sheng last and smiled at her provocatively.
Xie Jingxi scolded in a low voice and followed up without hesitation. She didn’t doubt his cruel means at all. If he lost it, Sheng last might never be found again. He was full of hatred for Gu Guan. How could he be kind to Sheng last.
At the same time, Fang Dai also found something wrong, because Xie Jingxi never left for so long for no reason, at least for half an hour. damn! She just left for a while. How could it be so coincidence that her wife went wrong at this time. The only purpose of her existence is to follow her wife and lose her. How can she explain to Gu Yun.
Gu Guan heard the news, threw down the things in her hand and ran out to meet Fang Dai. “She must have run away with Sheng last, but Jing Xi has always been cautious and won’t run away without notifying us. There must be an accident. I’ll find it with you.”
Fang Dai began to get flustered. He looked for Zhao Zhang and decided not to inform Gu Yun for the time being. This was ordered by his wife before. He couldn’t directly tell Gu Yun about her bad news. Once he was anxious to attack his heart, he would probably kill him directly.
Zhao Zhang said, “let’s look in two ways. There are only two directions when we go out from our yard. Fang Dai, you and the three girls look for the direction of the market. I went to the other side and found the code.”
Zhao Zhang estimated that if someone took Sheng last away, he would certainly go to the suburbs with few people, so he would choose to go to the suburbs himself, but in fact, on the contrary, Gu Qing took Sheng last to the downtown and turned to the backyard of a gambling house. This unexpected place undoubtedly increased the difficulty of finding.
In any case, they can’t find a place like gambling house at the first time unless someone guides them.
Xie Jingxi followed her without hesitation, but when she arrived, she was in despair. Her strength alone was too limited. She didn’t know what cards Gu Qing wanted to play and how to deal with it.
“Sister-in-law, you’re all here. If you don’t come in and have a look, you won’t be reconciled.” Gu Qing suddenly appeared, looked at her like a winner, and made an invitation gesture to her. “If it weren’t for the sake of sister-in-law coming alone, I wouldn’t let you in. After all, sister-in-law is different from them, I still appreciate it.”
“Gu Qing, don’t be angry with the child. Let him go. I’ll go in with you.”
“Eh? Is sister-in-law talking to me about terms? It’s not very good. Sister-in-law and my little nephew don’t represent the same account and can’t be confused. But don’t worry, my little nephew looks like me. How can I be willing to move him? At most… Send him away.”
Gu Qing smiled meaningfully and turned into the yard. Xie Jingxi resisted the impulse to peel his skin and followed him in. Gu Qing really came back for revenge and sent Sheng last away, just like himself. He left home when he was young and his mother and son were separated.
The yard is bigger than expected, and there are all kinds of plants, trees and rocks. It looks like someone’s backyard. She can’t help remembering that brothel in Huainan is also their nest.
“Gu Qing, why don’t you go back and have a look? Mrs. Hou was looking forward to your return until she died. At least she didn’t apologize to you.”
“Really, ha ha…” Gu Qing smiled, “She doesn’t think about me. If Gu Heng and Gu Guan were sent away, she would probably be the same. A woman who wants to attach herself to the Marquis can’t protect what she wants. Since she can’t protect it, don’t worry about it, because at the moment she was forced to give up, everything is meaningless. She was also abandoned by me. What’s more, go back to see a dead man, do you think Is this necessary? ”
“Then why did you show up at this time?”
“Is sister-in-law telling me what I’m saying, but it doesn’t hurt to tell you. How good it is at this time. One Hou’s house died and three came back, oh, four. What a rare opportunity. There are complaints and accounts. Don’t you think so, sister-in-law?”
Xie Jingxi felt cold for a while. Gu Qing has become a complete pervert. He can watch Zeng die in peace. What else can he do.
“Sister-in-law, what else do you want to ask to delay some time? I’ll try my best to cooperate, but time is limited. In two or three hours, my little nephew will be away from home. You can hurry.”
For two or three hours, up to the evening, how can we save Sheng last? Gu Qing is completely out of control. What he says is tantamount to casting pearls before swine, and it can’t affect him at all.
Xie Jingxi was burning with anxiety.
“Where is Sheng last? I want to see him.”
“Little nephew, he’s fine. He eats, drinks and plays. If he doesn’t like Shu, his sister-in-law should accompany him. After all, when he leaves, he’ll never see him again.”
Sheng last was locked in a room. He was playing hard. When he saw Xie Jingxi coming, he quickly carried the nine links behind him and looked out nervously, “aunt, are you alone?”
“Your mother didn’t come.” Xie Jingxi sat beside him and said patiently, “Sheng last, how can you run here alone? How worried your mother must be.”
As like as two peas, I saw a man who was exactly like my mother. He said he was an uncle. He said my mother was with him and asked me to go with him. Actually, I didn’t dare to come at first and asked him many questions. But he answered correctly, and said there was something funny here, and I couldn’t help it. Was he my uncle?
Xie Jingxi touched his head. “He’s your uncle, but he doesn’t have a good relationship with your mother. He brought you here to lead your mother out.”
“Well, will my mother be all right? What should I do? Aunt, do I do something wrong? I blame my stupidity. How can I go with people I don’t know?” Sheng last was very upset.
Xie Jingxi took him in his arms and comforted him, “don’t be afraid. Your aunt is here. Your mother will find us.”
