Rudonghai

Chapter 129 Revealed
Thinking that there is Xianghe Garden just across the wall, Ji Jiaqian also took a trip to try her luck.

But Gu Yunxiao went to bed early, probably without knowing it: "Did you hear any strange noises, or did you meet outsiders?"

Liu Xu shook her head and replied: "The servant has been guarding outside the room, waiting for the girl to wake up to take care of her. She didn't dare to take a step away. She didn't see anyone else, but she listened to the commotion next door, for fear that they would wake up the girl."

This maid is loyal, and every word and every word is imagined for Gu Yunxiao, Ji Jiaqian comforted her: "I'll go and control them, what's it like to be noisy? If you meet someone later, just call the maid who runs errands outside." Let me know."

Hearing Liu Xu's answer, Ji Jiaqian glanced at the inner room again, it was quiet inside, but it was so noisy outside, Gu Yunxiao didn't wake up, she was obviously really tired, and rarely fell asleep.

"Take good care of your girl, so you don't have to bother her with what happened just now."

Only then did Ji Jiaqian take the maids and women away, and Gu Yunxiao was greatly relieved when he heard that there was no movement outside.

Liu Xu was also vigilant, Ji Jiaqian and her group left without a trace, but she didn't dare to get into the inner room immediately.

After waiting and waiting, the noise in the yard next door gradually quieted down, and she realized that her palms were covered with sweat.

The composure and calmness towards Ji Jiaqian just now is completely gone now. Instead, her legs are weak and she almost falls to the ground.

Fortunately, Ji Jiaqian didn't notice it, otherwise it would be troublesome.

Seeing two or three maids poking around outside, Liu Xu calmed down and went forward, with a curious look on her face: "What are you all doing here, who is the distinguished guest staying next door, and why did Mrs. Lao come to look for it herself? "

The little maid was deliberately left behind by Liusu's care.Seeing Liu Xu seemed to be completely ignorant and ignorant, she pretended to be mysterious and said: "Sister, you don't know, the master Taifu came, and the wine spilled while pouring the wine, and the servant sent the adult to the wing room to change." Clothes. Who would have thought that the boy would go to ask the mother-in-law to bring hot water, and he would disappear in a blink of an eye."

Liu Xu blinked: "A living person, could it be possible to disappear out of thin air?"

"It just disappeared out of thin air. Madam sent us to search everywhere, but we couldn't find it." The little maid also didn't understand, she wrinkled her small face, where did such a big living person go?
Liu Xu grabbed the copper coin and gave it to the little maid, who happily shared it with the other two, and then left Xianghe Garden.

When she went back, she was cautious, seeing that there were no maidservants around, she dared to go in, closed the door, and said in a low voice: "Girl, everyone outside has left, fortunately, servant girl is careful..."

Liu Xu raised her head and saw Gu Yunxiao on the couch holding Xiao Xilin in her arms, she couldn't help being dumbfounded: "Girl, my lord, this is..."

Gu Yunxiao also had a headache, and said helplessly: "He said he had a severe headache, and he didn't know if he drank too much alcohol. I was rubbing his forehead for him, hoping to ease it."

Only then did Liu Xu see Gu Yunxiao's hands gently rubbing Xiao Xilin's forehead, and the latter's head was resting on his young lady's shoulders, and he squinted his black eyes comfortably, as if he was rubbed comfortably.

She turned her face away in embarrassment, feeling that she should see no evil, and continued: "Madam is looking for Mr. Xiao everywhere in the mansion, it's not good for the girl to keep him here."

If it was discovered, wouldn't Xiao Xilin lose her girl's reputation?
Gu Yunxiao naturally understood this truth, and only wanted to quickly restore Xiao Xilin's usual sobriety before leaving on her own.

Now seeing Xiao Xilin resting lazily on her neck, still not looking sober, she couldn't help feeling depressed.

If it drags on, even if Xiao Xilin wants to leave later, it won't be so easy not to be discovered.

"How can this be good..."

Before Gu Yunxiao could come up with a solution, Liu Xu looked out and her face turned pale: "Miss, Master Ji is here."

Gu Yunxiao couldn't help but support his forehead, Xiao Xilin hadn't invited him out from the yard yet, why did Ji Keran come to join in the fun again?

"He came here just now, how long before and after, why did he come again?"

Liu Xu whispered: "Could it be that you suspect that Mrs. Xiao is in the house, Madam doesn't want to come in and disturb the girl, and Mrs. Ji intends to do it for you?"

If so, that would be bad!

Gu Yunxiao looked at Xiao Xilin who had been rubbed drowsily by her, and sighed softly: "Master Ji dare not come in, so I can hide a thing or two for the time being."

I'm afraid that Ji Keran will play cards unreasonably and force his way in, then he will be in big trouble!
"Miss San, I'm coming down to bother you."

As Ji Keran spoke loudly, Liu Xu had to bite the bullet and go out to deal with it: "Master Ji, my girl hasn't woken up yet..."

"It's okay, this is the Dahongpao sent by Zhuangzi below. I think the third girl loves tea, so she will definitely like it. Moreover, this tea has the effect of calming the mind, and it can also make the girl sleep better at night."

Liu Xu managed to force a smile: "Thank you, my lord, this servant will take it for the girl, and we will soak it when the girl wakes up..."

"This tea is delicate. If the technique is wrong, the tea it makes will not taste good." Ji Keran sat down at the stone table in the front yard, and smiled softly: "The girl hasn't woken up yet. Just wait here."

Liu Xu had a bitter face, and Ji Keran was sitting outside, she couldn't just throw people here and neglect her.

She could only plead guilty softly, and went in to see if Gu Yunxiao was awake.

Ji Keran watched Liu Xu go in with a smile, and Shi Shiran glanced at the tea set on the table and the small bag of tea in his bosom, with a look of certainty in his eyes.

Hearing that Ji Keran was sitting outside and not leaving, Gu Yunxiao's small face was wrinkled.

What is going on with this man, I can't drive him away like a cowhide sticker.

She looked down at the drowsy Xiao Xilin who was pillowed on her lap, and felt even more headache.

One outside the house, one inside the house, what should I do?
If you don't go out to deal with Ji Keran, I'm afraid that man won't leave.Rather than this person running in and finding Xiao Xilin, it's better to go out for a walk by yourself.

Gu Yunxiao helped Xiao Xilin slightly, and coaxed in a low voice: "My lord, rest here for a while, and I will send Master Ji away."

Otherwise, how would Xiao Xilin leave Xianghe Garden without being discovered?

But Xiao Xilin turned around, grabbed her arm, squinted her eyes as if she hadn't woken up, got up and rested on Gu Yunxiao's shoulder and did not move.

Gu Yunxiao froze and didn't dare to move.

Xiao Xilin's breath was right next to her ears, warm and ambiguous, which made her a little at a loss.

Unexpectedly, Master Tai Tuo, who is like a banished immortal, would be so clingy and childish when drunk.

Gu Yunxiao sighed, it seemed that she didn't want to get up and go out to send Ji Keran away, so she turned her head to the stunned Liu Xu and said, "Just say that I'm not feeling well, it's inconvenient, please Master Ji go back. If he refuses, Just bring in the tea, I guess he has no reason to stay after drinking the tea."

Liu Xu responded, and went out to relay her words. Ji Keran said regretfully, "I thought I could let the third girl see my tea ceremony, but I didn't think I was reckless. It's okay, this tea is not easy to come by, and it has been kept for a long time. It loses its original taste, so please drink it while it's hot."

He made tea with his hands flowing like clouds and flowing water, and this gesture alone was pleasing to the eye.

Liu Xu looked in admiration, and after Ji Keran poured the tea, a vague fragrance wafted over, which made people feel refreshed, and then thought that the tea was really extraordinary.

She went in with the teacup carefully, and Gu Yunxiao also smelled the fragrance of the tea, narrowed her eyes and said, "It's good tea, I don't know how it tastes."

After finishing speaking, Gu Yunxiao raised his hand to take the cup of tea, but a big white and slender hand suddenly stretched out and stopped the cup of tea.

She froze for a moment, then turned her head to see Xiao Xilin who didn't know when she woke up, holding the teacup with one hand and lowering her head to sniff, then handed the tea to Liu Xu in a blink of an eye: "Pour it out."

Liu Xu took the teacup in a daze, a little stunned.Good tea, why should I pour it out?

Gu Yunxiao figured it out quickly, and asked hesitantly: "My lord, is there anything wrong with this tea?"

"The tea is fine, but this teacup...is not usable." Xiao Xilin answered vaguely, then squinted her eyes next to her, as if about to fall asleep again.

Gu Yunxiao really couldn't laugh or cry, and he didn't know whether Xiao Xilin was awake or half-drunk.

On the contrary, she had to listen to his words. Since she felt that there was something wrong with the teacup, she naturally did not dare to touch it: "Then listen to your lord and throw it away."

Liu Xu poured the tea on the ground outside the window in distress, but she also knew that Ji Keran's move was going to harm her own girl, so she moved very quickly and deftly.

No matter how good something is, if it harms people, it can't be touched.

"You went back to Mrs. Ji, and you said the tea was good tea, but I drank it and couldn't taste it." Gu Yunxiao thought for a moment, she didn't drink tea, and whatever she said might arouse Ji Keran's attention. It is better not to say anything.

Suddenly, she made up her mind and whispered something in Liu Xu's ear.

Ji Keran was not annoyed when Liu Xu relayed Gu Yunxiao's words, and said with a smile, "It's not in vain to come here if you can get the third girl's praise for the good tea."

Liu Xu personally escorted him to the gate of the courtyard, taking advantage of no one around, said in a low voice, "Thank you, Mrs. Ji, for the good tea. It's inconvenient for the girl to come out to thank you. It's just that I'm very bored in the room, and I plan to come out for a walk later."

Her voice became lower and lower, as if she was talking to herself: "There is a small door in the backyard of Xianghe Garden, which directly leads to the west wing next door. I don't know when it was left..."

After finishing speaking, Liu Xu paused suddenly, did not continue, and said apologetically: "Look at the mouth of this servant, sometimes I can't stop talking nonsense, I respectfully send you off to Master Ji."

Ji Keran frowned, smiled and said: "It's okay, take good care of your girl, I think we will meet each other by fate."

Liu Xu came back and told Gu Yunxiao, especially Ji Keran's vague emotion at the end.

Gu Yunxiao snorted coldly: "It seems that Dad didn't tell the Ji family clearly about his plan."

Maybe Ji Jiaqian felt too ashamed, so she didn't get involved directly, and kept a hand, so she could easily pick herself out in the future.
