Chapter 333 Counterattack (two more)
Lao Houye didn’t let Gu Yan check out after all. He took out the purse, took out a silver naked boy from it, and handed it to Xiao Er. However, he might have taken it too quickly and brought out a red string pipa knot.
Gu Yan quickly picked up the pipa knot with his eyes and hands. This pipa knot looked a few years old, faded and fringed.
It is hard to imagine a strong man with such a thing in his purse.
”Did you give it to your confidante?” Gu Yan asked.
At first glance, it was given by a woman, but it will not be the old lady in the house. He and Mrs. Gu are close together, so he will not wear the things she gave.
”Ah, no, don't talk nonsense.” Old Houye put the pipa knot back into the purse.
Gu Yan didn’t believe it. He asked curiously, “I can’t tell, you still have a confidante, where is she now?”
Definitely not in the house, the old aunt in the house has been cleaned up by Mrs. Gu a long time ago.
Lord Houye has never mentioned his feelings to others in these years, so much bitterness is held in the bottom of my heart, and to be honest, there is indeed a bit of desire to pour out.
He hesitated for a moment, and said, ”It's a friend of mine. He has fallen with me. I'm planning to return it to him.”
my friend?
What a familiar beginning!
Gu Yan, who read all the Fengyue Storybooks of Old Jijiu, said that he understands, he understands!
He raised his handsome little brow: ”Then where is your friend's confidante now?”
Lord Hou sighed in surprise: ”She... has become a monk.”
”Why a monk?” Gu Yan asked.
”My husband has passed away, I can't help myself. But...” Speaking of this, the old man paused, ”Maybe it is to be able to see my friend again in his lifetime.”
Can’t tell, the old man is so attractive to women.
Gu Yan didn’t ask for the reason why he couldn’t help himself. His focus was on the latter sentence, and he thoughtfully said: “So it seems that this confidant has a deep affection for your friend.”
Lord Hou looked down at the concentric knot in his hand, and said: ”It's a pity that we met too late. I wish we could meet when we were not married.”
Gu Yan said: ”But isn't her father-in-law dead already? And she has also lost her hair for your friend. Do you think her mind...cough, I mean, can't your friend really see it? ?”
Lord Hou frowned: ”You mean—”
Gu Yan said: ”I mean, she may have been waiting for your friend to take her away.”
”Take her... to leave?” Old Master Hou was shocked. This child is really shocking and dying!
Gu Yan nodded: ”Yes. I ask you, why does your friend think she made a monk to meet him? Did she say this personally, right? Or, she made your friend feel her friendship for your friend. ”
”...Hmm.” Old Houye nodded and admitted.
Gu Yan slapped the table on the table: ”That's all right! She is a woman, and it's her limit to show a little friendship. She can't just elope you with me and talk about it. This kind of thing has to be done. We men take the initiative!”
Old Houye was shocked by Gu Yan's words, and he forgot to say that you were only fifteen, and the smelly smell was not dry, so you can't be regarded as a real man.
”This, this is too rebellious!”
How did this kid grow up, he is bolder than his three brothers!
Gu Yan: ”What's wrong? Go for it if you like it.”
Old Houye hesitated: ”In case she doesn't want to—”
”Unwilling, it means that she doesn't have your... friend in her heart!” Gu Yan patted her grandfather on the shoulder, and analyzed for him based on the senior experience of reading the Fengyue storybook. ”She is a monk, and yet What can't you do? If she doesn't want to elope, then there is only one truth-she doesn't like your friend, but has been using your friend's feelings for her!”

Gu Jiao was busy in the medical hall all morning, and finally got a little free in the afternoon. It was rare for her to lie down on the wicker chair under the big tree for a while to cool off without having to touch the black powder.
Li Wanwan, separated by a wall, is practicing piano.
She is used to coming here every day to practice the piano for Gu Jiao at this hour, but she doesn't know if Gu Jiao is there every time.
Her piano skills have greatly improved compared to years ago, but today she doesn’t know if there is something on her mind and she plays absent-mindedly.
”You made a mistake again.” Gu Jiao said flatly.
”Ah.” Li Wanwan paled, she didn't expect the girl to be here today, after all, the girl hadn't listened to her practice for several days.
She was very busy and looked straight and said: ”I, I will play it again.”
The result is still not satisfactory.
She was so nervous that sweat came out of her palms.
Very strange, the other party is obviously not her master, but she is even more nervous than in front of the master.
”Sorry, I should be more attentive...” She bit her lip, and whispered, ”I might not be able to come next month...I...I'm going to get married...”
She is actually not very old, only sixteen. This dynasty is no better than the previous dynasty, and a woman who gets married at the age of eighteen or ninety will not be criticized.
It's just that it depends on the specific market. The big family can afford to spend their money, and she must marry out early.
I heard that the girls in the country got married earlier. Thinking about it this way, I was lucky enough to end up at sixteen. I had a good time to go to women’s school for half a year. I also met girls because of women’s school, and got so many girls. Guidance.
Gu Jiao: ”Oh.”
No one will play the piano for himself in the future.
When did Xiao Jiangli learn the piano?
”I have been wanting to say goodbye to the girl these few days, and want to say thank you to the girl. The biggest thing I learned in women's school is that I met the girl. My family had to drop me out of school after the first year. The girl changed the song for me. I was favored by Master Xie, and with his repeated insistence, my family’s talents allowed me to study for another half a year.”
Li Wanwan said, her cheeks reddened slightly, “Speaking of which, this marriage is also thanks to the girl. I played the piano well, and was heard by a prince of the family, he came to my father to beg my father.”
Gu Jiao didn't see her look, but it was not difficult to hear her longing for marriage in her words. It seemed that she also liked the young man.
”Girl, I... can I give you something? You taught me so much. If I just leave like this, I will feel sorry for myself. Please be sure to accept my thank you gift. It's not a valuable thing, a small medicine Bag, please accept the girl.”
”Yeah.” Gu Jiao replied lightly.
Li Wanwan was happy, and took out the medicine bag that had been rusted for several nights from her wide sleeves, so as not to throw it too lightly, she put a few dates in it.
”Girl, go on!”
She threw the medicine bag across the courtyard wall.
Gu Jiao caught it with one hand: ”Thank you.”
Li Wanwan smiled brightly: ”It should be! Then, I will leave! In the last few days, I will try to play a few more songs for the girl. If I don’t come one day, then... I won’t come again.”
At the end, she felt a little lost in her heart.
I can't bear the girl.
I don’t know if I can meet such a teacher and friend in the future.
She installed the guqin, picked up the case and left.
Snapped!
A small kit fell impartially on her piano case.
She was startled slightly: ”Girl?”
”New wedding gift.” Gu Jiao said.
Li Wanwan smiled happily, smiling like a child.
”Miss Gu, Ms. Gu! Someone wants to ask the doctor for a visit, saying that the situation is critical!” The little third son ran over in a hurry.
”How critical is it?” Gu Jiao asked.
The little third son said in fear: ”The hand... the hand is broken! It was cut off! It's a woodworking craftsman!”
This is a major operation, Gu Jiao has to go there in person.
”Okay, I'll go.” Gu Jiao carried the small basket on her back, and the third son drove the car to the mansion on Qingliu Street that the little servant said.
Walking, the little third son felt something was wrong: ”Hey? This is not the way to Qingliu Street!”
Xiaosuo rode ahead on horseback, did not look back, and said, “When I came, we were building roads over there. We have to go around here.”
”What's wrong? Is the road wrong?” Gu Jiao asked lightly.
”Go around a little bit.” The little third son muttered.
Gu Jiao opened the curtain and looked at the scene along the street.
Beijing is not every street bustling and lively, and some remote places are very desolate.
This is an old street, there are not many pedestrians, and there are not many paved areas, and then there is an official road with wheat fields on both sides.
Yes, there are also fields in the capital, but they are all in relatively remote areas.
”What a good place to ambush...”
This is the instinct that was developed when he was a killer in the previous life. When he sees the location, he will always subconsciously judge the suitability of the case.
However, as soon as this thought flashed through her mind, she stopped.
There is something wrong with .
Very wrong.
is the intuition of the killer.
Gu Jiao lowered the curtains and opened the front roller blind. She shot a silver needle and slammed the small servant leading the way.
