marriage gentleman

Chapter 57

The matter of Yu Qiguang leaving without saying goodbye, Yun Zhen was deeply brooding.In the dead of night, Su Chengyu was already sound asleep, but Yun Zhen was still tossing and turning on the couch.He silently opened his eyes, staring at the pitch-black void in a daze.

After a while, he sat up silently from the couch again, staring at Su Chengyu in a daze.

He cursed secretly in his heart that the fox is a bastard!
After scolding, he felt a lot more at ease.However, at this moment, there was a very low, very low cry. Listening carefully, there was still a bit of resentment, like a female ghost who was wronged to death hiding in a corner and screaming sternly—— Pay me back.

Yun Zhen shivered, her face turned pale with fright.

He hurriedly hid in the bed, but the crying still continued.Yun Zhen felt her legs were trembling, even if she wanted to lift the quilt to wake Su Chengyu up.Suddenly, in addition to the shrill cry, there was also the sound of footsteps reaching Yun Zhen's ears, which was so loud in the quiet night that it seemed to be beating a drum in his heart.

Boom, boom, boom.

Yun Zhen closed her eyes, and kept murmuring: "I haven't met my brother yet, don't come to me, don't come to me."

The quilt was suddenly lifted.

Yun Zhen exclaimed in shock.

This sound frightened Su Chengyu, he asked, "What's your name?"

Only then did Yun Zhen realize that he breathed a sigh of relief, quickly grabbed Su Chengyu's arm, and said, "I was scared to death, I thought it was a female ghost." ghost?"

Yun Zhen said: "No, there are! You fell asleep just now, so you didn't hear the female ghost crying."

Su Chengyu said helplessly: "It's not a female ghost, I also heard the crying." He slightly lowered his voice and said, "It came from the next door."

After hearing what Su Chengyu said, Yun Zhen also gradually calmed down.

Speaking of which, when he knocked on the wrong door today, a woman did come out with red eyes. Although she was fierce, he remembered the tears on her face very clearly.

He said, "Do you want to go and have a look?"

Su Chengyu said: "Don't meddle in your own business."

Yun Zhen had no choice but to give up.But after a while, the woman's cry came again, intermittently, very miserable.Yun Zhen covered her ears, but she could still hear clearly.He sat up from the couch again and called out, "Brother Su!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Su Chengyu!"

It was Song Mei's voice.

Su Chengyu rubbed the center of his eyebrows, knowing that he was destined not to sleep tonight.He kicked off his shoes and opened the door for Song Mei.I saw Song Mei's body was wrapped in a thick quilt, only her white face the size of a palm was exposed.

She pursed her lips and said, "There is a female ghost! Su Chengyu, did you hear that? There is a woman crying, crying so miserably."

Su Chengyu sighed: "It's not a female ghost, it's really not a female ghost." He patiently explained: "There's a woman living next door, and she's crying." Seeing Song Mei's pale face from fright, he immediately felt overwhelmed. I can't bear it anymore.

He laughed and said, "I never thought that you, who are not afraid of anything, are afraid of this..."

Yun Zhen also came forward at this time and said, "...I didn't expect that either, haha."

Su Chengyu glanced at him.

Yun Zhen kept silent.

Su Chengyu said: "Okay, you two stay in the room, I'll go and ask what happened." Otherwise, he really won't be able to sleep tonight.

Song Mei and Yun Zhen looked at each other and said in unison: "I'll go too." Su Chengyu knocked on the door.

After a while, the woman in the room opened the door belatedly. She looked at the three people in front of the room vigilantly, especially Song Mei who was dressed strangely, and the woman looked at them for a quarter of an hour.

Song Mei coughed lightly, and quickly let go of the quilt.

Su Chengyu said: "We live in the wing next to yours. We heard your crying in the middle of the night, so we came to have a look." He looked at the woman's clothes, and quickly judged that the woman in front of him was not an ordinary woman. People, it seems that the family is quite good.He said again: "Madam, if you have any difficulties, maybe we can help you."

The woman looked at Su Chengyu and said coldly: "No, I don't have any difficulties."

With that said, she was about to close the door.

With previous experience, Yun Zhen reached out and stopped him.The woman said fiercely again: "What do you want to do!"

Yun Zhen said: "Madam, from your accent, you are also from Wei, right?"

The woman was startled, and then slowly looked at Yun Zhen.

Yun Zhen immediately said with a big Wei accent: "Madam, I am also from Wei." As soon as the words fell, the woman's tears fell, as if meeting an old friend in a foreign country, her fierce appearance disappeared immediately.The woman pulled Yun Zhen into the room excitedly and happily.

Seeing this, Su Chengyu and Song Mei walked in together.

The woman said: "Great, I finally met a Wei man. The Zhou people are so vicious all the way here, it's really scary. You must help me, you must help me." Saying that, the woman Wiping away tears, she said: "My son is missing, you must help me find him. I only have one son left, how will I live without him in the future. God, how could you have the heart to treat me like this! God unfair!"

Yun Zhen was at a loss when he saw someone crying, he quickly looked at Su Chengyu.

Su Chengyu said: "Madam, please don't cry. Where did your son lose you? What does he look like? What's his name? You tell us first, so we can help you find him."

The woman said intermittently: "My surname is Zhang. I came from Wei Mingyang to look for my husband. When I passed by Hedu, my son lost me. I asked people along the way, but they didn't want to tell when they heard that it was from Wei." Me. Later, someone said that he had seen my son in Ronghua Town, so I came all the way. But after searching all over, I still can’t find my son.”

The woman, Mrs. Zhang, began to wipe her tears again. She said, "My son is twenty-three this year, and he was... born about the same height as you..." Mrs. Zhang pointed to Su Chengyu, and said, "The complexion is dark, and the eyes are big. , with a slightly collapsed nose, a mole on the right eyelid, and a black robe."

Su Chengyu wrote down one by one, and then asked: "What's his name?"

Mrs. Zhang wiped away her tears and said, "His surname is Lu, and his name is Li."

Yun Zhen was stunned for a moment, and asked: "The way to help each other when you see injustice? Li Li Yuan Shang Cao Li?"

Mrs. Zhang asked in surprise: "Have you seen my son?"

Yun Zhen shook her head and said, "I just happen to know someone with the same name." The age and appearance are not the same, so it must not be Lu Fox.

Su Chengyu also said: "It should be just a coincidence." He pondered for a moment, and said to Mrs. Zhang: "Madam, don't worry, since you didn't find your son in Ronghua Town, and your son was separated from you in Hedu, And your son is already in his twenties, so he should stay in Hedu."

Yun Zhen said pleasantly: "Brother Su, let's go to Hedu tomorrow."

Su Chengyu looked at Song Mei.

Song Mei said: "It's been delayed for so long anyway, and it's okay to delay for a while. But after going to Hedu, you must come back to Xiangjun with me."

"Okay." When Qi Guang and Lu Li arrived in Hedu, the night was already dark.Fortunately, the mansion has already been prepared, and everything inside is all new.Qi Guang, who had been riding in the carriage for a long time, was also a little tired. She yawned and said, "I want to take a rest."

Lu Li supported her, and asked, "Do you want to eat something first? The plum cake made by the cook is more delicious than the one I brought you in the inn last time."

Qi Guang yawned again.

She said, "No, I'll eat after I wake up."

Ming Qing stepped forward to salute, and said: "Ming Qing has seen the young master and his wife." Lu Li said: "Ming Qing is the manager of this mansion, you can order him anything in the future."

Qi Guang waved his hand and said, "Where is my wing?"

Ming Qing turned sideways and said, "Ma'am, this way please."

Lu Li said, "I'll accompany you there."

After finishing speaking, he wrapped his arms around Qi Guang's waist and supported her to walk slowly to the east.When passing through the bamboo forest, Qi Guang stopped in his footsteps.Lu Li said, "This is the bamboo forest I mentioned to you earlier."

At this time, the sky was dark, there was still light snow on the ground, and the moonlight was shining white.White snow and silver moon, green bamboos are faint, quite artistic.Suddenly a black figure stepped out, holding the broom clumsily in his hand.

Ming Qing said: "Your Madam, this is Alu, the little servant who is in charge of cleaning. Alu, why don't you come over to see the Young Master and Madam."

Seeing Alu approaching gradually, he seemed a little shy, and bowed cautiously.

Lu Li looked at Alu.

His complexion is slightly dark, his nose is slightly sunken, but maybe because of the mole on his right eyelid, his eyes look big and small.Lu Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "Where did you find Alu?"

He noticed that his hands did not look like those of a poor family.

Ming Qing said: "If you go back to the son, you bought it from Ren Yazi. His family background is clean. He used to make a living by teaching people to read and write. Later, because of the drastic changes in his family, he had to sell himself as a slave. What the son ordered, even a servant is the best. You also need to be able to read and write. So I chose Alu."
