Chapter 97

Jinglan Court.

"Miss San, please go in, the old lady is waiting for you inside."

Lin Qingqian entered the house, the old lady looked tired, it should be because the servants came back from Jingxin Temple.

She blessed her body, "Grandmother."

"Hey, come here and let grandma see."

The old lady pulled Lin Qingqian to her side, looking at the wound on her forehead with distress.

"I went back to the mansion this morning, and I heard from Steward Fu that Yuan'er is getting more and more outrageous. He doesn't look like a brother at all, but he hurt you. Don't worry, grandma will wait for him to heal. Punish him severely and let him apologize to you."

Lin Qingqian shook her head, and said: "Qingqian's injury is a minor injury, it's fine, grandma doesn't need to worry, but Brother Chang Geng's injury..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old lady.

"I also know about this."

The old lady said earnestly and earnestly: "Qingqian, I know that you are a kind-hearted child, thinking that Gu Changgeng saved your life, but don't forget, he is an outsider after all, and Yuan'er is your brother who is connected by blood. No matter how wrong my son is, Gu Changgeng has no right to criticize him, let alone take action, your mother is right to punish him."

Lin Qingqian's heart tightened suddenly, disappointment, disbelief and other emotions were intertwined.

Here, there is no such thing as fairness at all, only power and status.

Lin Qingqian pursed her lips, restrained her thoughts, and said, "Yes, grandma, Qingqian understands."

"For the wound on your forehead, I'll ask Nanny Zhang to take the good gel cream and bring it back for you. After your wound is better, I will apply it again. There will be no scars."

"Qingqian is fine, grandma doesn't need to worry about it. Grandma must be tired after returning from the Jingxin Temple after a long journey. Qingqian will not disturb grandma's rest. I will retire today and come back to pay my respects to grandma another day."

The old lady frowned slightly, and said, "Well, you should go back first."

"Retire lightly."

Lin Qingqian left, Zhang Nanny saw the old lady's complex expression, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Old lady, Miss San doesn't seem very happy."

The old lady sighed, and said: "It's not my fault that she's unhappy, this child is pure-hearted, he must think that Gu Changgeng is helping her and shouldn't be punished, plus he was hurt by Yuan'er, it's normal to have a little temper. In two days, you'll be fine."

As she said that, the old lady couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "Yuan'er is really... oh, see if I don't teach him well after a while..."

……

Hedge garden.

Gu Changgeng could sense that since Lin Qingqian came here, she was not in a good mood, and her brows were still frowning.

"But what happened?"

Lin Qingqian smiled, "It's okay, Brother Chang Geng, don't think about it, your wound hasn't been treated yet, I'll help you apply it."

Gu Changgeng's pale face showed a faint blush, he coughed, and said, "No need, just let Gu Bo come to apply the medicine for me."

"Brother Chang Geng is shy?"

"No, you are a girl's family, and you are afraid that the wound will scare you, so just let Uncle Gu come in." Gu Changgeng said with twinkling eyes.

Lin Qingqian secretly laughed in her heart, if she told Gu Changgeng that she took care of the wound that day and she saw him from the bottom of his buttocks, what would happen to him?Will you be annoyed?

But her conscience was still there, and she didn't offend Gu Changgeng who was hurt, she nodded and said, "Listen to brother Changgeng, I'll let Uncle Gu come in."

After Lin Qingqian went out, Gu Changgeng was visibly relieved, lying on the couch, his handsome brows were slightly frowned, and a distressed expression appeared on his face.

She has always been not strict about the relationship between men and women, should he have a good talk with her in the future?

After all, he is the elder brother.

……

Gu Bo finished administering the medicine for Gu Changgeng. Seeing that Lin Qingqian's expression was not very good, he wanted to let her go back to the room to rest, but she refused and insisted on staying here with him, even pretending to take a book and walk to the bed.

"Brother Chang Geng, don't worry, I will read a book with you for a while, and I will definitely not disturb you."

Gu Changgeng had no choice but to let her go.

There was no time for half a stick of incense, and Lin Qingqian, who had been physically and mentally exhausted for the past two days, took a nap, and soon fell asleep lying on the bed.

Chun Xia came in and saw it, and was about to wake Lin Qingqian up.

Gu Changgeng lowered his voice and said: "Don't wake her up, let her rest on the couch for a while, there is a quilt next to her, you cover her up, it's raining outside, be careful not to catch a cold."

Chun Xia hesitated.

After all, it was inappropriate for the young lady to rest in Mr. Gu's room, but after thinking about it, the young lady was worried about Mr. Gu for the past few days, and she never had a good rest, and she was reluctant to wake her up.

After a while, Chun Xia said: "Yes, Mr. Gu."

Gently covering Lin Qingqian with the quilt, Chun Xia blessed Gu Changgeng's body, turned around and left.

The room was quiet, Gu Changgeng couldn't help but look at Lin Qingqian's delicate face.

In the past six months, she has grown taller, and her appearance has also grown a little, and she has become more and more beautiful.

Gu Changgeng never noticed that when he looked at Lin Qingqian, his eyes were as gentle as water.

……

Two days later, Gu Changgeng's injuries were fortunately not infected, and he was able to stay in the bed and walk around.

Lin Qingqian stewed the soup and brought it to Liyuan for him. As always, she walked towards Gu Changgeng's bedroom, but she heard a dog barking in the yard. She turned her head and looked, the corners of her mouth twitched. She recognized this thin black dog at once. dog.

Wasn't it the dog that Gu Changgeng poured the tonic soup she gave him back in the past!

"Go away, go away! Why is your dog here again!" Uncle Gu drove the black dog away with a stick, and said embarrassedly to Lin Qingqian: "Miss San, I'm sorry, are you not scared? This dog is It’s been a long time since the wild dog ran in, but I didn’t expect it to come in again today.”

"Oh, I'm fine."

Lin Qingqian narrowed her eyes, her eyes flickered, and asked, "Uncle Gu, you said this wild dog came in from outside? Where did he come in from?"

"There is a hole under the corner of the wall in the corner of the yard, just big enough for the wild dog to get in, and that's how it came in."

Lin Qingqian said thoughtfully, "Oh, so that's the case..."

"Miss San, what's wrong?"

Lin Qingqian said softly: "It's okay, brother Chang Geng is up yet? I'll bring the soup to his room for him."

"The young master is already up, Miss San, please go over quickly."

After accompanying Gu Changgeng for breakfast, Lin Qingqian found an excuse to go around the yard and found what Gu Bo said was a hole under the corner of the wall.

She knelt down and looked at the entrance of the cave for a while, then went to find Uncle Gu and asked, "Does Uncle Gu know where it is outside the wall on the west side of the yard?"

"It's a wasteland with no one to live in."

Lin Qingqian's eyes lit up, and she asked Uncle Gu to find a shovel, and she dug along the hole.

Chun Xia looked at Lin Qingqian with a sad face, and said, "Miss, what exactly are you going to dig? How about slaves and servants to help?"

Lin Qingqian wiped the sweat from her forehead and said out of breath, "No, I'll do it myself."

Nonsense, she wants to dig a hole to make it easier for her to enter and leave the prime minister's mansion, can the servant come to help?Isn't this a waste of time.

Gu Changgeng heard the commotion, walked to the courtyard, looked at Lin Qingqian in puzzlement, and asked, "What are you digging here?"
