I want to make progress

Chapter 31 Good Mother-in-Law

"Hey! That's not right. How did you know I was almost robbed?" Suddenly, she paused and looked up at him. "You saw me before! Then why didn't you come out!"

His eyes were filled with resentment. Could this person be so cruel?

"You ran away before I even showed up. Do you think I would have shown up in time if I hadn't been chasing you?"

Glancing at her, Gu Changting helped her stand up expressionlessly, "Anyway, let's go back first. You've been out for a long time. If you don't go back, you'll be criticized."

"Where are those bad guys? Have they been caught? They knew my identity and said I was from the Duke of England's mansion and that I was skilled in martial arts. They are definitely not ordinary thugs. They came after me. There must be someone behind them directing them."

Grabbing Gu Changting's wrist, Shu Yunfu suddenly thought of those bad guys. She had to go back, but she wanted to know who wanted to harm her more.

She had just arrived in the capital and it was only the second day. Who would want to harm her?

"I just arrived in the capital, and I haven't offended anyone..." After meeting the man's eyes, she looked away with a guilty conscience, "Even if I did, it was just a quarrel. It wouldn't be necessary to take my life like this. This is the capital after all. Killing someone in broad daylight, how arrogant is that."

Looking at the man with bulging eyes, whether it was Aunt Qin, or his wife the Duke and his two concubines, it seemed that none of them possessed such ruthlessness, decisiveness and confidence.

"That's really strange. We need to interrogate them." His eyebrows were furrowed into a "川" shape. He could think of what Shu Yunfu could think of. "Qixian has already brought them back to the mansion. They can't run away. If we want to interrogate them, we have to go back first."

"and many more!"

Shu Yunfu stopped and touched his swollen and numb face, "Give me a mirror."

Although I didn't see it, I still felt it. Are you sure you want to go back home like this?

"There are no mirrors in the clinic. Besides, do you think you can hide such a big thing from the people in the mansion? Your injuries will not heal in ten days or half a month."

"I'm just a concubine of the second house. Who would notice me? But the scar on my face is so obvious that I can't cover it up even if I want to. Besides, it's too ugly!"

If possible, she didn't want anyone to know what happened today. Not only was it embarrassing, but more importantly, she was afraid that it would cause trouble and Gu Changheng would restrict her from coming in and out. She couldn't be trapped in the backyard of the Duke of England's mansion.

Those damn bastards, don’t they know that you shouldn’t hit someone in the face?
"It is indeed somewhat obvious, but I have asked the doctor to give you the best medicine. I also have the best snow lotus ointment. Applying it will reduce the swelling and no one will notice it."

"Really? My face seems to be seriously ill. What kind of snow lotus cream can be effective?"

"It was presented by the Qiang Kingdom. It is made from snow lotus from the snowy mountains. It has miraculous effects in regenerating skin and removing scars. It is extremely precious. Since snow lotus is rare, the Qiang Kingdom did not present many. Even the ladies in the harem are drooling over it. I only have two boxes. I gave one to my mother and kept one for myself. If you don't like it, then..."

"No, no, no! I like it! I like it!"

Shu Yunfu quickly grabbed his hand, "Oh my god! What a good thing!"

Although she has the grass of life, who can have too many good things? If the snow lotus cream is really a good thing, plus the life dew... it makes her excited just thinking about it, how can she not like it!
"Let's go! Let's go back now!"

She was in such a hurry that she didn't even care about the pain all over her body. She picked up the veil beside her and put it on herself. This time she was really willing to do it.

"Oh, yes! Your book! You haven't got your book yet!"

Holding Gu Changting's arm, she ran for two steps and then hurriedly stopped to go back. She remembered that the man was reading a book just now. "No need!" He stopped the man who was about to run back, met her puzzled gaze, and said helplessly: "That is the medical book of the clinic, not mine, there is no need to take it."

"Ah?" Shu Yunfu was extremely surprised, her eyes full of doubt, "Do you understand?"

He can not only thrive in the court, but can also understand those obscure medical books. Isn't he too capable?

Looking at this chattering and energetic young girl, Gu Changting sighed, and amid her exclamations, he picked her up and walked out.

"Wow! What are you doing!"

"Take you back!"

"What if someone sees us?"

“No one will see it.”

He held the person he was waiting for tightly in his arms and walked out with big strides.

She was clearly covered in wounds and had fainted, which scared him. As a result, he was worried for a long time, but this little girl was jumping around like a little monkey. She really doesn't know how to take care of herself!

She hooked her hands around the man's neck, leaned against his arms tenderly, raised the corners of her lips, and kicked her feet playfully, hehe!

Shu Yunfu returned to the mansion quietly. For the first time, she thanked the custom of wearing a veil when going out. It perfectly covered her swollen face and the fact that she was injured.

Fortunately, she came back in time. She and Yuyan bought a lot of things on the street and had them delivered to them. However, she only paid the deposit and has not paid the balance yet.

After such a delay, the goods were delivered, but the person who paid did not come back.

If it was just a few things and a little silver, it wouldn't attract attention. But this time she went out just to sweep the streets. So many people came and gave so many things, which alarmed many masters in the mansion. But unfortunately, they all came to watch the joke and no one wanted to pay.

If she doesn't come back, she might become famous in the capital!
"She's back! Aunt Shu is back!"

After getting off the carriage, Shu Yunfu's face under the veil was twisted with pain. Fortunately, she didn't have to endure the pain because of the veil. But before she landed on the ground, she was frightened by the loud voice of the doorman and servant and almost sprained her ankle and fell off the carriage.

Then he was taken to a side hall by servants to settle the balance issue. After he took out a stack of banknotes, he was almost laughed at.

But to her surprise, when she was leaving, she met people around her cheap mother-in-law, and they actually came to pay her bill.

This really surprised her. Although she knew that this cheap mother-in-law did not have any ill intentions, she did not expect that she would be so kind as to clean up her mess.

This mother-in-law is really good at dealing with people. This Gu Changheng is not that great, but in this respect, he is really better than anyone else in Beijing... No, no, no! He is better than almost all the men in Darong!

Shocked, Shu Yunfu hurried back to her Yizhuxuan, just wanting to have a good rest, but she didn't know that the other masters in the mansion were also surprised at this moment.

It’s not for anything else, it’s because Shu Yunfu is so generous!
