"Tell me, if an adoptive mother has two children, who does she prefer?" Gu Mingmou turned over and asked lazily.
"It should be the eldest master, right?" Xiuyue said hesitantly.
"Wrong, it should be her own son." Gu Mingmou shook her index finger.
"But the master didn't treat their family badly. It's better to release them from the house than to be servants in the Gu family, right?" Xiuyue was a little puzzled. Originally, her adoptive mother's son Gu Xing was also the steward of the eldest master. Later, his adoptive mother was After he was released from the mansion, he left. After leaving, the master even arranged a position for him in the Yamen. Although it was not high, it was considered an official position. This is probably the best outcome for the family.
"So what did the second uncle do during this period?"
"The second master found a wife for him. The second master's family really likes to be matchmakers." Xiuyue murmured and continued, "Well... That Gu Xing seems to be addicted to gambling, but he is very measured in his actions and does not owe any money. debt."
"Are you sure he doesn't have any gambling debts?"
"This..." Xiuyue was not sure. She turned around and took out a stack of papers on the table. She picked out the last few and looked at them. She couldn't help but shake her head. "The most outrageous thing he owed was three thousand a few years ago. Two, but it was paid back only two days later, and it was the second master who paid it back for him. "
Seeing Xiuyue almost jumping with excitement, Gu Mingmou couldn't help but laugh. He picked up the brown sugar water at hand and took a few sips. His throat was burning due to the taste of ginger, and he almost shed tears. After a while, he sighed quietly, "My second uncle hasn't been promoted in so many years. It's really a disgrace to his abilities."
The second master, who has almost no presence in the Gu family, is indeed a real person and can easily plot against his own eldest brother. It seemed like she was going to investigate further. What on earth did this second master, who had always kept a low profile, want to do
"Girl, you said that the second master has had no heirs for so many years, and in the end he had to adopt the second girl. If it is true as Hong Tucha found, Aunt Zhang gave birth to Gu Jingxing behind the master's back. Why has he always refused to recognize her? go back?"
"I'm weird too, but compared to me, I'm afraid there are some people who are weirder." Gu Mingmou curled his lips.
, among the information Hongtu gave her, all aspects were investigated in detail according to her requirements, but when it came to her second uncle, it seemed vague, and her second aunt was almost not mentioned.
If it wasn't that Hong Tu didn't investigate, or someone didn't want her to know, it was self-evident as to who that person was.
It seemed that her second uncle was in trouble. Thinking of Uncle Zhongyong's family who had his whole family destroyed after the new emperor ascended the throne in his previous life, Gu Mingmou hugged Mrs. Tang tightly in her arms and decided to pretend that she didn't know anything.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and a warm breeze was blowing outside the window. After eating and drinking, Gu Mingmu, whose stomach finally stopped hurting, fell asleep listening to the chirping of birds outside the window.
Suddenly the door creaked, and she opened her eyes in a daze and saw someone who shouldn't be here.
She blinked, thinking that she might be having a nightmare, she shrank back, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
Prince Heng, who broke into the girl's boudoir without permission, walked towards the soft couch with a calm expression. Xiuyue stiffened, looked at the girl who was sleeping in a daze, and then at Prince Heng, who was full of imposing aura, and finally had to Back away.
Gu Mingmou slept very well this time. In her dream, she felt like she was floating on the sea. The sea water was warm and carried her around.
She moved her body, and a wave of heat in her lower body woke her up from her trance. The cool touch gave her a bad omen, so she subconsciously touched her lower body.
Sure enough, under the candlelight, he met a pair of eyes as cold and emotionless as a wild beast. She froze at first, and when she realized that she was lying in Shen Guiye's arms, she suddenly felt bad.
"Don't fuck." The man's voice was low and smiling. He just said it verbally, but did not really stop her.
"You... why are you here?" Oops, I've already touched it. She didn't forget why she woke up. When she thought about Shen Guiye knowing that she was covered in blood, she was worried that she would be killed and silenced.
"You didn't come to see me, so I had no choice but to come to see you." Prince Heng pinched her cheek affectionately, and the soft and fragrant feeling within his reach made his movements even more wanton.
Gu Mingmou didn't have time to care about where her hands were pinching at this time. She wished she could put this matter to bed immediately.
Pass over.
Unfortunately, it backfired.
"The smell of blood?" Prince Heng's hand movements paused, and he looked down at Gu Mingmou with strange eyes.
Gu Mingmou obediently climbed up from him and sat upright on his lap. She blinked her eyes and looked at him innocently, "I didn't mean it."
"..." Shen Guiye lowered his head. The moon-white brocade robe embroidered with silver dragon patterns was stained with a touch of dark red, apparently from... his eyes fell on her gracefully curved... hips.
In this case, is it better to strangle her to death first, or let her change clothes first? Shen Guiye was a little irritable, but also a little secretly happy.
The little girl had her first period and soiled his clothes again.
Gu Mingmou felt more and more that his eyes were dangerous, so she tried to remedy the situation. She tugged on his sleeves, turned to him and said softly, "You insisted on holding me to sleep." She didn't pursue the idea that she was being raped in her sleep. It's already good to have an advantage inexplicably.
How innocent she is, sleeping in her own room and having to worry about her sleeping position.
"So it's all my fault?"
"I was wrong." Paji lowered his head with a good attitude of admitting his mistake. But the whole body exudes the aura of "I've done it anyway, if you can, just kill me."
This makes Shen Guiye feel that he is a little unreasonable
"Let's go change some clothes first."
"What about you?" Gu Mingmou looked expectant. Anyway, the clothes are dirty, so why not go home and change into another one? Don't just hang out at other people's houses late at night.
Shen Guiye suddenly smiled at her. Caught off guard, his heartbeat seemed to skip a few beats. Although this man is dangerous and moody, he does have a knack for confusing people.
"You reminded me that I should prepare a few sets of clothes for you next time."
Gu Mingmou laughed dryly, "No need, you sit down first, I'll come back when I go." After saying that, he trotted all the way behind the screen. After a while, he stuck his head out and asked flatteringly, "Have you eaten?"
"No." Shen Guiye looked at her deeply.
Gu Mingmou seemed not to notice and continued to ask: "What do you want to eat?"
"Have a bowl of bird's nest porridge."
"Oh, Xiuyue, go get two bowls of noodles."
