Chapter 244 Worrying

Author: Wen Jiutao

Jiuli left Xianxia Temple, took her horse, got on it, and ran towards Qingqian Villa.

Mrs. Hou and Aunt Chun were already standing at the door of Qingqian Villa, looking around. Mrs. Hou's face was full of embarrassment, and she kept saying, "Will Miss Jiuli blame us?"

Ah Chun quickly consoled her, "Madam, who is Miss Jiuli? She has a broad mind and won't be so fussy. She is just like Mr. Hou."

"Like Mr. Hou?" Mrs. Hou was startled for a moment, as if she thought of something, and continued, "You can't let Mr. Hou listen to these words. He will be angry. He always says that his poems look like him, and his appearance

It’s also similar, and the temper is also similar.”

When Aunt Chun heard this, she seemed very unhappy. But she still held Mrs. Hou's arm tightly.

Mrs. Hou turned to look at her and said in a low voice, "Ah Chun, don't tell Miss Jiuli about Shopkeeper Liu's affairs, for fear of affecting her mood."

"Of course." When Mother Chun said this, she nodded vigorously and said, "I won't mention it to her for the time being."

In fact, when she left Qingqian Villa last night, Mrs. Hou and Aunt Chun stayed up all night. They kept talking about Jiuli.

Before dawn, I stood at the door waiting for Jiuli.

They were afraid that Jiuli wouldn't come, but they were somewhat comforted by the thought that shopkeeper Liu and Xiaoqi were there. They looked around here and waited anxiously.

A fiery red horse gallops from the east bathed in sunshine. The thin figure of the person on the horse is bathed in thousands of rays of light, as if a god has descended.

"Madam, look, isn't that the horse that Miss Jiuli rode away yesterday?" Aunt Chun pointed at the horse and shouted.

Mrs. Hou looked at Jiuli who was getting closer and closer, her tired face suddenly gained color, and her eyes were filled with brilliance.

Jiuli approached on horseback and saw them getting off the horse. She said apologetically, "Did you make Madam worried?"

"Miss Jiuli, where have you been? Madam didn't sleep all night because she was worried."

"I was very anxious about something, so I didn't have time to tell Madam." After Jiuli finished speaking, she bowed to Madam Hou again.

A guard came over and took the horse from Jiuli's hand. Jiuli patted the horse's neck gratefully and kissed it again.

The horse was led away, and Jiu Li watched it go far away.

When the three of them walked into the courtyard, Jiu Li leaned closely against Mrs. Hou. The boys or guards walking on the road stared at Jiu Li with strange eyes, and then hurried away.

So we walked for a while.

On a garden path,

Shopkeeper Liu walked towards him. When he saw Jiuli, he stopped. The moment Jiuli's eyes rested on him, he suddenly turned around and turned a corner.

Jiuli blinked and watched him walking the other way, feeling doubtful. She then said, "Mrs. Hou, isn't that shopkeeper Liu's? He seems to be in a bad mood. I'll go over and have a look."

At that moment, Jiuli's face changed when she saw Mrs. Hou. She turned red at first, then turned pale, and then became a little pale.

"Mrs. Hou, are you feeling unwell?" Jiuli took her hand and put her hand on her pulse. Her pulse jumped very fast, and she was very nervous, as if something was wrong.

Mrs. Hou's eyes always wandered here and there, and she seemed to hesitate to speak.
