Chapter 45 Second Master Gu Returns to the Mansion
Gu Yunyao walked to the window and looked into the room.
I saw two people rummaging around the house with their heads down.
If he hadn't recognized one of them as the woman in the old lady's yard, Gu Yunyao would have thought there was a thief.
It seems that the old lady thought she was hiding something secretly and sent someone to search for it.
There was no need to use a knife to deal with these two women. She took out a small flashlight and pointed the beam at her face from bottom to top.
Suddenly there was a light outside the window, and the two women in the room were startled and quickly turned to look.
This is an incredible sight. Just outside the window, in the blinding light, there is a ghostly face that is uncertain in light and dark!
The two people were immediately frightened and screamed: "Ghost! There is a ghost... a ghost!"
Gu Yunyao laughed "haha" under her throat several times, which frightened one woman into fainting, while the other one was trembling all over and couldn't move.
She threw in a pill and it turned into mist, and the other woman also fainted.
Putting away the small flashlight, Gu Yunyao returned to the yard. These two women would not be able to wake up until tomorrow morning.
As for the old lady who is still waiting for news, let her wait!
Returning to the yard, she slept peacefully and had a good sleep.
Early the next morning, Hui'er came later than usual, with two patches of black and blue under her eyes.
Gu Yunyao pretended to be concerned: "Miss Hui'er, didn't you sleep well?"
Hui'er covered her mouth with her hand and yawned: "Last night, the old lady went to bed late, probably because the old lady's memorial day was coming soon. The old lady missed her deeply, so the servants took care of her and slept a little later."
Gu Yunyao secretly laughed in her heart. She was so longing and sad, but she was crazy about money, right? The two women didn't wait.
After breakfast, Gu Yunyao was about to give Yang a massage and acupuncture, when Grandma Tian came again.
"Second Miss, please go to the door of the house."
"Why?"
"The second master returns to the mansion today. Everyone except the old lady will go to the gate to greet him."
Aunt Tian is so arrogant, the second master is coming back, he is the head of the family!
I don’t believe that Gu Yunyao can’t be restrained.
Gu Yunyao blinked: "The second master is going back to Beijing today?"
"That's right, I entered the city early this morning and will be at the door of the house in a short while. Second Miss, you'd better clean up quickly."
Gu Yunyao's eyebrows were slightly curved. She went to the city early this morning. Then who did she see last night?
Gu Shaotai's trick of hiding things from the outside world was really good, and everyone in the house was hid by him.
Fortunately, she hasn't had direct contact with this second uncle yet, so it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to check it out.
"Okay, let's go."
Aunt Tian thought she was going to refuse. Gu Yunyao was very difficult now, so she didn't expect that she would agree so happily.
"Second Miss, why don't you clean it up? It's like this..."
Before she finished speaking, Gu Yunyao glanced at her, and Granny Tian swallowed her words back, snorted, and left first.
Gu Yunyao thought about it, took out a small bottle, put it in the brocade bag, coaxed Yang, and went out slowly.
When she arrived at the door of the house, most of the Gu family had already arrived and were waiting eagerly.
The second lady also dressed up specially, making her even more beautiful than usual.
Gu Qingwen and Gu Qingxue were beside her, whispering something.
Seeing her coming, Gu Qingwen smiled and waved: "Second sister, come quickly."
Gu Yunyao walked over calmly, and Gu Qingwen said: "Father is coming back. He will definitely bring back a lot of things from this trip. Second sister, please don't be polite if you pick a few more items."
Gu Qingxue snorted lightly.
"I heard that Third Sister was ill before. Is she cured now?" Gu Yunyao didn't take Gu Qingwen's words at all and looked at Gu Qingxue with a smile.
When Gu Qingxue heard her mention this, she gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I'm fine, you just wish I wasn't fine, right?"
"That's not true. Even if I ask casually, don't take it seriously."
"you……"
Gu Qingwen said: "Second sister, are you still used to living there? What is missing? If it is missing, just tell me."
"Of course I'm used to living in my own yard. If I need anything, I'll ask my grandmother for it, so don't worry about it. If you say this at the gate, people who don't know would think that you are in charge of the General's Mansion."
The smile on Gu Qingwen's face was almost unbearable.
"Okay, Yunyao, Wen'er also means well," the second lady said.
Gu Yunyao looked at her, smiled and said nothing.
The second lady felt that her smile was a bit malicious, and she couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
"why are you laughing?"
Gu Yunyao said nothing: I won't tell you, just guess.
After waiting for a while, when Gu Yunyao was about to lose his patience, he saw Gu Shaotai's carriage finally appearing at the intersection.
It was the one she saw last night.
The second lady raised her hand to hold the beaded flowers on her head, her joy was beyond words.
When Gu Shaotai got off the car, mother and daughter rushed to greet him.
"Master, master is back."
"Father!"
Gu Shaotai smiled and said: "Okay, okay, you are all here."
Gu Yunyao stood on the steps, smiling but not smiling.
Gu Qingxue turned around and saw her: "Why don't you come here quickly? I've met my father."
"You also said, that's your father, not my father," Gu Yunyao said in a calm tone, "Second uncle's ostentation is big enough, and the whole family came out to greet him. If my father comes back one day, the door of the house will be demolished.
"
Gu Shaotai's smile froze slightly. He had received a letter from home a few days ago, mentioning Gu Yunyao's changes. He thought it was unbelievable, but now that he saw it, it was indeed true.
"Yun Yao, your father is not at home, and I am the head of the family. I neglected to discipline you in the past. This time when I come back, I will teach you the rules."
Gu Qingxue raised her chin proudly.
"Second uncle doesn't know yet, does he?" Gu Yunyao sighed, "Third sister made a private arrangement for life and gave her a bellyband. I don't dare to do such a thing. Why don't you teach her your rules first."
"You're talking nonsense!" Gu Qingxue was furious.
Gu Qingwen looked surprised: "Where did the second sister hear such words? It is about the innocence of the third sister. It is not easy to talk nonsense."
"Nonsense? This happened in the front hall, and we even had a confrontation on the spot."
"Where is the scholar now? Now that my father is back, I can ask him to confront me again."
Gu Yunyao looked at Gu Qingwen's calm expression, and a thought flashed through her mind.
Yu Qingbai was dead. Not only did she know it, but the man in black who also went to assassinate Yu Qingbai also knew it.
Why is Gu Qingwen so calm and determined?
Unless Gu Qingwen also knows.
Could it be that the man in black that night was related to Gu Qingwen?
If so, she really underestimated Gu Qingwen.
Gu Shaotai sneered: "Why do you need to question something that doesn't happen at all? If someone comes to blackmail you in the future, just call him out and report it to the official."
"Father is right," Gu Qingwen said gently.
"It is indeed outrageous," Gu Shaotai glanced at Gu Yunyao, "From today on..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Yunyao took a deep breath: "Is the second uncle going out to do the spice business this time?
There is a... powdery scent on my body, it smells quite good, could you give me a box?"
Gu Shaotai's heart trembled, and he looked calmly at the second lady's slightly suspicious look.
He flicked his sleeves: "What nonsense are you talking about? Where does the scent of powder come from? Come into the house!"
