Chapter 206: Disappointment

Gu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm worried too much? Not a bad person? Then why did he fabricate his identity? When he got married, since he said he was Qian Xiangzhen's son, why didn't you meet Qian Xiangzhen and go to the Lord of Yancheng's Mansion to verify, and then marry the third sister to him?"

Guang Haiying couldn't tell that Gu Xiu was dissatisfied with his parents, so she was not angry. Speaking of which, she regretted this matter very much.

"At that time, we saw that he was sincerely begging each other and had the jade tablet of the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion. Your third sister agreed, so she was not careful..."

Gu Hua also said: "Xu'er, this is already like this. It's useless to say more. As for Shu'er, it depends on her own luck."

"Mom thinks so too?" Gu Xiu stared at Guang Haiying.

Guang Haiying sighed, "If this is not the case, what can you do? Maybe in a few years, your third sister will come back by herself."

Gu Xiu touched the storage bag, where there was the pill she brought back for Guang Haiying, healing and practicing. Another pill was the Mai Hua Dan she prepared for Gu Shu. Because of Gu Shu's disappearance, this Mai Hua Dan would not be used in a short period of time. She originally thought it was for Guang Haiying. Although with her current situation, there was little chance of successfully transforming the pulse, after taking Mai Hua Dan, after practicing in the future, it can reduce the frequency of using the Transformation Pill.

But now, she suddenly didn't want to give it to her.

Gu Xiu decided to obey her wishes. She took out several jade bottles from the storage bag and said to Guang Haiying: "These bottles are the Gasing Pill, the Replenishing Pill, the Yuhuan Pill, and the Ten Complete Pills, all of which are medium-grade elixirs."

After giving the pill to Guang Haiying, Gu Xiu did not look at Guang Haiying's excited and complicated expression. She stood up and said, "Dad, mom, I'll go back to the yard first."

I originally wanted to ask Gu Xu why he was much older, but he was not in the mood at this moment.

When I returned to the yard, the maid served in the yard was no longer Xiaoying. The new maid was named Caihe, who was fourteen or fifteen years old.

She didn't know Gu Xiu, but the whole family knew about Miss Gu Liu and Miss Gu Ba's return home today.

Seeing Gu Xiu, Caihe came up carefully, "Miss Eight, I have cleaned your house. Do you want to go in and take a break?"

Gu Xiu nodded and did not rush back to the house, but went to Gu Shu's house first.

Gu Shu's room was empty, with nothing but tables, chairs, benches, and there was a layer of gray on the tables, chairs, benches, and a golden red sunlight came in along the half-open door. Small dust rolled and suspended in the golden light, showing a sense of dilapidated and old.

Cai He explained nervously: "Since the third lady got married, the eldest lady closed the room and said she didn't need to clean it. When will the third lady come back, it will not be too late to clean it temporarily, so..."

Gu Xiu raised his hand and signaled that he would not explain.

"Where is Xiaoying?" Gu Xiu asked.

"Ah?" Caihe was stunned.

Gu Xiu frowned slightly, "It's the maid in front of you, her name is Xiaoying. Where is she going now? Are she still in the Gu family?"

"Sister Xiaoying got married. Her husband was a servant from the second master and the other. After getting married, the couple was sent to the medicine garden."

“Where is the medicine garden?”

Gu Xiu knew that the Gu family had several medicine gardens outside the city, and they were planted with medicinal materials to treat mortal diseases.

"I heard it is the medicine garden in Ming Town." Cai He said.

"When did you come to this yard to serve?"

"Two years ago." Cai He said.

"So, Xiaoying went to the Medicine Garden in Mingzhen two years ago?" Gu Xiu asked again.

Cai He was stunned and shook his head, "No, Sister Xiaoying was no longer in the mansion when I was very young?"

Gu Xiu looked at Caihe and said, "Tell me clearly, when did Xiaoying go to Ming Town?"

Caihe was startled by her sudden stern gaze and hurriedly said, "I don't remember it very clearly. When I was **, Sister Xiaoying got married, and my mother took me to Sister Xiaoying's wedding.

After getting married, Sister Xiaoying went to Ming Town. Before I was assigned to the eldest lady's yard, Sister Hongshan was serving here. Two years ago, Sister Hongshan suddenly fell ill. Although the eldest lady found a good doctor for her and bought expensive medicines, it was said that she used Shenxi to treat her illness, but she only allowed her to live for half a year, and finally went there.

After Sister Hongshan went, I was assigned to the eldest lady's yard, and it has been until now."

"How old are you this year?" Gu Xiu asked.

Caihe said: "Fifteen years old."

"When you were ** years old, six or seven years ago, when Xiaoying left the mansion, were you eight or nine years old?"

Cai He thought for a while, "It was the year when the third lady got married. I still remember when Sister Xiaoying got married. My mother also said that the third lady and Xiaoying got married together. This year in the yard must have been filled with joy."

Gu Xiu was shocked, she had guessed something before, and Cai He's answer seemed to have added another bargaining chip to the authenticity of her guess.

But these are not enough.

"Which year did the young lady succeed in transforming her pulse?"

"I know this, seven years ago, a few months after the third lady got married, the eldest lady successfully transformed her pulse, and everyone in the house knew about it."

Gu Xiu nodded and asked, "Did the eldest lady make a temporary decision this time in seclusion, or is it a good thing before?"

Caihe shook her head, "I don't know, it was about ten days ago that the eldest lady told me that she was going to retreat and had prepared a fasting pill to let me take a good look at the yard."

Only Caihe could know this news. Gu Xiu was about to go into the house to practice. After Gu Xuan finished talking to her grandfather, grandparents and parents, she would go to find her.

Gu Xuan did not wait for Gu Xiu to find her, but came to her own night.

Gu Xiu had just had supper at that time.

Gu Hua and Guang Haiying called her to go to Chengxiaoyuan for dinner, but she refused on the grounds that she was tired from traveling.

This reason is perfunctory, but she is too lazy to think of other reasons to deal with it.

"I'm going to find you tomorrow, but you're here first."

Gu Xiu welcomed Gu Xuan into the house and said with a smile.

Gu Xuan said: "I have something to talk to you."

It may be because of the friendship between the two, or because they are now both monks from the Lord of Shangcheng City Mansion, or based on their previous recognition of Gu Xiu's ability, Gu Xuan had something or had some doubts in her mind, and the first person she thought of was Gu Xiu.

"Eighth sister, do you know why my grandfather became like this now?" Gu Xuan looked a little ugly.

Gu Xiu shook his head, "Has the second uncle made a mistake in his practice?"

She originally wanted to ask Gu Hua and Guang Haiying, but judging by their attitude towards Gu Shu's disappearance, she really wasn't in the mood to say more to them.

"No." Gu Xuan shook her head, "My grandfather was assassinated."

It turned out that not long after they left the Lord of Xianshui City and set out for Shangcheng, Gu Xu received a message from a friend that his friend was traveling outside and traveling to Fengshan City, and saw Gu Jun.
