Thinking of the two of them breaking up on bad terms two years ago, Gu Yu paused and said, "Let him wait a moment, I'll go out right away."
Gu Yu dried her hair bit by bit and tied it up. When she went out, Lengliu had already drank three cups of tea.
Seeing Gu Yu, he smiled slightly, and the dimples on his cheeks made him look non-aggressive.
After not seeing each other for two years, Gu Yu didn't know what to say for a moment and said: "Doctor Xiao Leng, have your biological parents been found?"
Lengliu shook his head and said, "I didn't find it."
It was an excuse to go out to find his biological parents. Since his parents abandoned him, he would naturally not go back to look for them.
Gu Yu refused to open any pot and asked, "Then do you still want to go out and look for it?"
Leng Liu put away his smile and looked at Gu Yu with some hurt, his eyes covered with a hazy spring river mist, and said: "Gu Yu, do you want to drive me out of the Duke's Mansion again?"
Gu Yu instantly surrendered and said: "How could it be possible? I still say what I said. You have lived in the Duke's Mansion since you were a child. This is your home. I will welcome you back anytime."
Gu Yu said this two years ago.
At that time, the cold-blooded young man had a heart full of love and secretly expressed his admiration for Gu Yu many times, but Gu Yu's heart was as solid as a rock and she cruelly refused every time.
Until the eldest lady once called Gu Yu into the room and told her that there were more and more people who wanted to marry the Zhenguo Duke, and they had to find a way to deal with it.
At the same time, the eldest lady also mentioned the inheritance of the Guogong Mansion.
Gu Qiong was raised by Aunt Su, and she was familiar with the virtues and virtues. She was also engaged to Dong Changmao, so this heavy responsibility fell on Gu Yu.
In the opinion of the eldest lady, the most suitable candidate for the father of the child is Dr. Xiao Leng, who knows everything about it.
The eldest lady thought that Gu Yu and Leng Liu had grown up together and would not be too resistant.
Regardless of what the First Lady and Doctor Leng tried to persuade the clinker, Gu Yu just said: "I haven't entered the court yet, so this matter is not urgent."
How could you not be in a hurry? After entering the court, Gu Yuruo's pregnancy would not be as easy to hide as it is now.
What they don't know is that Gu Yu is a modern person and she is well aware of the dangers of childbirth for women in this era.
She was only 17 years old at that time, and she cherished her life. She felt that she had to wait until she was at least 25 years old, her body had matured, and she had a certain say in the court.
In the end, the eldest lady relented and said she could wait, but she hoped she would try to develop a relationship with Dr. Xiao Leng.
Gu Yu sternly refused, saying: "Anyone can be the father of the child, but not him."
The eldest lady, Doctor Leng, and Lengliu don't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Gu Yu didn't want to explain too much.
Her ideas are too forward-thinking and would scare them if she spoke out.
Gu Yu had no room for negotiation, so she disobeyed her aunt for the first time and walked out.
I bumped into Leng Liu who was eavesdropping outside.
The 17-year-old Lengliu still had a childish look on his face. He had understood the eldest lady's hint beforehand and came over with high hopes, but he heard Gu Yu's merciless rejection.
The corners of his eyes were slightly red, and he grabbed Gu Yu's sleeves at a loss and asked, "Why can anyone do it, but not me?"
Gu Yu left without saying a word.
The young doctor Xiao Leng was not willing to give up just like that, nor was he willing to watch his beloved woman give birth to a child for someone else, so he still expressed his love silently.
He thought that Gu Yu was still a woman at heart and longed for beautiful women's dresses, so he wanted to give Gu Yu a dress on her birthday.
So I picked up an embroidery needle with the hand I used to grab the medicine, and secretly learned how to make clothes from the embroiderer in the house. After a lot of effort, I finished the clothes.
It was a fairy dress with blue clouds and cloud patterns intertwined in green and yellow. On the inside of the sleeves, he secretly embroidered the words "jade" and "liu".
His secret little thoughts made him afraid that Gu Yu would find out, and he also expected Gu Yu to find out.
He hoped that he was the first and only person to see Gu Yu wearing women's clothing.
He imagined countless times that Gu Yu would look like a hibiscus in clear water or an orchid in an empty valley when she put on this dress.
But at the same time, rumors arose in the mansion that Dr. Xiao Leng was in love with Miss Gu San. The reason was that the only girl of the right age in the mansion was Miss Gu San.
Making clothes and skirts as personal gifts to girls is not in line with the ethics. Moreover, he is living in the Duke's Mansion as Doctor Leng's apprentice, so it is difficult to hear the rumors as he comes and goes.
Gu Qiong could only cry in fear when something happened. It was not convenient for him to be a man living in the Duke's mansion, and now he was making such gossip again.
Gu Yu is naturally indifferent emotionally, and only regards his family members as more important than his own life.
As soon as this incident came out, she first dealt with a group of gossiping servants vigorously, and then found out the culprit.
When I saw the unformed clothes in the medicine house, they were indiscriminate, so I took the scissors and started cutting them.
He stopped Gu Yu and explained the truth. The dress was not made for sister Gu, but for her.
He thought Gu Yu would be slightly moved after hearing this, but when he looked up again, what he saw was Gu Yu's even colder eyes.
Like the snow on a cold day, like the ice on the cliff that has not melted for many years.
"Do you have to make it clear? I don't like you, and everything you do will only bother me and cause me more trouble."
He let go of his hand in a daze, allowing Gu Yu to twist the dress that he had spent countless nights making into pieces. The young man's passionate heart was also shattered with the dress.
Gu Yu didn't even take a look at the dress, which turned into a pile of rags and threads.
Lengliu mustered up the courage for the last time and told Gu Yu that he really liked her and it had never changed since he was a child.
Leng Liu's confession made Gu Yu reflect on whether his words were not harsh enough, so he turned his words into a knife again and plunged into Leng Liu's heart alive.
"Doctor Xiao Leng has been in Yaolu for a long time. He has never seen the moon in Guanshan, the snow in the north of the Great Wall, the yellow sand in the desert, or the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. That's why he thinks I am good. Why not go out more often and you will find the most lovely women in the world.
There are many, but I am just the most boring one among them, and I am not worthy of Dr. Xiao Leng’s devotion.”
"Are you driving me away?"
"You can think so."
"Did you drive me away because my existence caused sister Gu to cause rumors, or did you drive me away because you didn't want to obey the eldest lady's orders?"
Gu Yu responded in silence.
Lengliu smiled bitterly. In fact, what difference does it make?
In his life, there were only two people, Doctor Leng and Gu Yu, and he tried his best to keep Gu Yu.
But in Gu Yu's life, there are also the eldest lady, Aunt Su, and older sisters. He is the most insignificant person.
The nearly twenty years of getting along is nothing compared to a few tears from Sister Gu, nor a few words of urging from the eldest lady.
Gu Yu didn't want her sister Gu to get involved in irrelevant rumors, and she didn't want the eldest lady's idea to fail, so she had no choice but to drive him away.
It turns out that his wishful thinking is so cheap.
Young people's sincerity is easy to bear, but their arrogance cannot be blown away so easily.
He immediately packed up his things and set out overnight.
