The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 240 Malice (2)
If others say that, Qing Shu may not necessarily listen.But it was Gu Qiang who said it, so Qing Shu went to the front hall to wait for the news, and did not insist on going out of the house.

Not long after, the three people sent by Gu Qiang came back one after another.These three people didn't come back together because Gu Qiang specially confessed that they wanted to find out the news separately.This is Gu Qiang's cautious performance.The three people who came back said that nothing happened in the shop and everything was normal.And they also inquired, there is no news of any shop in the town today, and one of them went to the gate of the yamen to inquire, but there is no news about this in the yamen.

Gu Qiang then summoned Cai Tieniu to the front, questioned the situation in detail in front of Qingshu, and reprimanded Cai Tieniu for not keeping the messenger, not knowing who the messenger was, and where his family was.

Seeing that Cai Tieniu couldn't lift his head up under the training, Qing Shu said seriously, "Butler, it's alright, there was such a sudden news at that time, there was nothing to do if it got messed up. Besides, who would have thought that someone maliciously created something out of nothing?" .”

Only then did Gu Qiang stop reprimanding, "Thank you, Miss!"

Cai Tieniu hurriedly thanked Qing Shu, "Miss Xie is kind enough not to punish you. The villain will always remember the housekeeper's teachings and never dare to make the same mistake again."

Qingshu said, "Go ahead, let's be more careful in the future."

After Cai Tieniu withdrew, Gu Qiang said, "Miss, this matter is strange, and this old slave is very disturbed. Please try not to go out these days, miss and young master. In the village and in the shop, this old slave will tell them to be extra careful."

Qing Shu felt that what the housekeeper said was reasonable, so she said everything to be done by the housekeeper, and went back.She hasn't gone out for nearly ten days, if the housekeeper didn't stop her just now, she would have gone out.Is this someone trying to lure her out of the mansion on purpose?

After a few days of calm, when Cai Tieniu got up early this morning and cleaned the front yard with another servant, he found something stuck under the door of the mansion. He bent down to pick it up and found it was a letter.When he was puzzled, he hurried to find the butler.

The housekeeper looked at the words "Ms. Gu's personal letter" on the letter, and hurriedly asked Mama Su to enter the inner courtyard to see if the lady got up.Mother Su came back soon and told Ms. Gu Qiang that she was about to get up and that she would go to practice directly after washing up.

Gu Qiang took the letter and went to the practice site first.Not long after, I saw Qingyang and Qingshu approaching one after the other.

After teaching Qingshu and Qingyang the basic marksmanship, Gu Qiang basically didn't come here.Seeing him here, Qingshu knew something was wrong, asked Qingyang to practice first, and motioned him to speak beside him.

Going to the side, Gu Qiang explained the situation, instead of handing the letter to Qingshu directly, he asked Qingshu if he could read it first.Qing Shu naturally had no objection to the weirdness of the letter.Gu Qiang took out the letter from the letter cover and unfolded it, but his hand shook, but it was not obvious, and his face was the same.He quickly folded the letter back and pleaded guilty to Qing Shu, "Miss, please forgive me, this is not a letter to Miss, it is an old friend of this old slave who passed by here and left such a letter to this old slave because he was in a hurry to leave. I was also worried that the letter would be thrown away, so I left the words 'Ms. Gu's personal letter'. It is the old slave who disturbed the young lady because of unknown, please punish the young lady."

"It's a big deal, what kind of punishment is it? Since it's a letter to you, you can keep it yourself. I'm going to practice." Qingshu said, smiling and heading towards Qingyang.However, after walking a few steps and looking back, seeing Gu Qiang walking away in a hurry, she greeted Xiaojuan and asked Xiaojuan to follow quietly to see where Gu Qiang was going in such a hurry.

As soon as he turned the corner, Gu Qiang made sure that he was no longer in Miss's sight. Gu Qiang ran up and went directly to Zhou Boyan's place.Zhou Boyan is also used to getting up early, he was walking in the courtyard, seeing Gu Qiang's face was strange and anxious, so he went into the house.The two of them entered the room, Gu Shitou saw that they seemed to have something to say, closed the door and went out.

Gu Qiang handed the letter to Zhou Boyan, and whispered that he got up early and found it stuffed under the gate of the mansion.Zhou Boyan opened it, and saw the dazzling three characters "Gu Qingshu" written in blood, and also crossed the name with blood.

Zhou Boyan's face darkened, "Did she see it?"

Gu Qiang quickly replied, "I didn't show it to the young lady. I thought it was inappropriate, so I opened it in front of the young lady, and lied that it was written to the young lady by an old friend. The young lady didn't suspect it, and she was practicing."

Zhou Boyan's complexion improved a bit, "You don't need to let her know, I will handle this matter myself. Don't let her go out these few days, if there is anything unusual, report it to me directly."

"Thank you, Mr. Yan." Gu Qiang thanked him solemnly, bowing deeply.

Zhou Boyan stepped forward and stopped him, "Not to mention that she will be my person sooner or later, it is the general's affection for my father and me. Uncle Gu is so unreasonable. Uncle Gu calls himself a little one in front of me. Don't say anything, but if Uncle Gu treats me politely and treats me as an outsider, I won't agree."

"Since we have come to this point, even if it is inappropriate, I still have to ask Mr. Yan, do you really want to marry Miss?" Gu Qiang raised his head and looked straight into Zhou Boyan's eyes when he asked the question.

"Yes." Zhou Boyan answered without hesitation.

"Is it to repay the general's kindness?" Gu Qiang asked again.

"Uncle Gu, is Boyan the kind of person who marries a wife in order to repay his kindness?" If it was someone else, he would not pay attention to it, let alone answer.The other party is Gu Qiang, so he is willing to do this.

"Small ones should listen to definite answers, instead of presumptuously speculating on others."

Zhou Boyan didn't speak, but just rolled up his sleeves, revealing the goose-yellow hair band wrapped around his left wrist, "This is something that Boyan cherishes, and I won't give it to you." Put down the sleeves, "She said she won't marry until she is 20 years old. People, ask me if I can afford to wait, I can afford to wait."

Gu Qiang didn't say anything, but left the room respectfully.

On the other side, Xiaojuan went back to report and told Qingshu in a low voice, "Miss, the housekeeper went to Mr. Yan's residence, and when he came out, he was actually smiling. This is the first time the servant girl saw the housekeeper smiling, she was stunned, and almost let the housekeeper find out. "

Qing Shu nodded, indicating that he understood.But I wondered in my heart, could it be that she guessed wrong?Is that letter really weird?She pondered for a while, thinking that if the housekeeper could laugh, it must have happened to something good and happy, so she put the letter behind her and stopped thinking about it.

On the second day, at dawn, the servants began to clean, while Gu Qiang, Cai Tieniu, Ding Jiabao, Gu Yuanhe and other old departments of the ancient mansion quietly inspected the inside and outside of the mansion, and then Cai Tieniu and Ding Jiabao asked Gu Qiang Shaking his head and walking away, Gu Yuanhe nodded to Gu Qiang, took the broom back to his residence, and entered the house.

Not long after, Gu Qiang went to Gu Yuanhe's house, "What did you find?"

Gu Yuanhe's complexion was not very good, he put something into Gu Qiang's hand.Gu Qiang's face turned livid, but he didn't say anything. He hid it in his sleeve and went to Zhou Boyan's yard.

In Zhou Boyan's room, there is a small wooden figure the size of a palm on the table. Qingshu's name is engraved on the back of the small wooden figure, and three needles are stuck in the front chest.
