Chapter 164 When can I stop acting?
Gu Yunyao fell into a deep sleep.
I woke up around noon the next day.
This time, as soon as I woke up, I could feel that my body had regained its strength and I was full of energy.
I lay comfortably with my eyes closed for a while, listening to the sound of wind outside sweeping through the fallen leaves and rustling them.
She suddenly felt that when her mind calmed down, even her senses seemed to be more sensitive.
My mind moved slightly, and my consciousness entered the Chaos Ring. It was much more stable here, and even the library could be opened!
This is an unexpected surprise.
The library of the villa is larger than an ordinary library and has a rich variety of ancient books, classics, anecdotes, and historical legends.
It was accumulated slowly by successive generations of villa owners, and of course, Gu Yunyao and Uncle Er De also contributed.
Gu Yunyao thought that she had to send a message to Uncle Er De. The reason why Song Xinghe went to the princess mansion so quickly to find her was probably related to Uncle Er De.
She picked out a few books that Uncle Erde liked to read before, and gave them to him when she had the chance.
After getting her things ready, she felt someone approaching gently. She exited the Chaos Ring and opened her eyes.
When Yang saw her waking up, she was surprised and said, "Ayao, you're awake! Do you feel better? Are you hungry?"
Gu Yunyao felt warm in her heart and took the hand she extended: "I'm much better, I'm just sleepy. I'll be fine if I get enough sleep."
"Yes, Amu said that too," Yang nodded, "He said you would wake up, and he also said that when you wake up, he would give you a little bird to play with."
"Amu? Little bird?" Gu Yunyao was confused.
She was still wearing Shen Munan's clothes. She got up, changed and freshened up, and went to the corridor to look. Sure enough, she saw a birdcage hanging.
There was a beautiful white homing pigeon in the cage with a red beak and red claws. When Gu Yunyao came out, his small black bean-like eyes glanced over.
Gu Yunyao fell in love at first sight, thinking that Shen Munan should be the one sending her to deliver the news.
While I was feeding the pigeons with pigeon food, the pigeons suddenly stopped and turned around to look.
Gu Yunyao also followed it and turned to look, and saw Meimei raising her chin high, squinting her eyes, and walking slowly towards her with small steps.
From her beautiful eyes, she could vaguely read a sense of... contempt and displeasure.
The pigeon's black eyes moved as it moved, not taking its eyes off it.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Gu Yunyao hurriedly said: "Meimei, this is a new member of our family and a good bird. I named it Xiaobai. What do you think? Say hello."
Meimei jumped up to the window sill, wrapped her big tail around her paws from behind, and squinted at Xiaobai.
Xiaobai shook his wings and stretched out his claws, as if to say: "If you don't accept it, let's fight!"
Gu Yunyao took out the dried meat and gave it to Meimei, and gave Xiaobai some food: "Goodbye, we are all one family."
Meimei lowered her head to look at the dried meat, paused for a moment, lowered her head, raised her chin and walked away.
Xiaobai flapped his wings and continued to eat pigeon food.
Everything is wonderful.
But Gu Yunyao felt that this matter was not over yet.
After eating something and feeling refreshed, and walking with the boss for a few rounds, Gu Yunyao was in high spirits and felt like she had been reborn.
Sitting under the tree, she set out some snacks and tea.
Some things need to be explained clearly.
"Aunt Gu, who has been to our yard while I was away?"
The headmaster thought for a moment: "The old lady sent someone here once to ask if you had returned from the Yamen, but I didn't let you into the hospital."
"Any more?"
"No," the headmaster shook his head, "What?"
"When I was in Jingzhao Mansion, the second lady once took a piece of my bloody clothes to testify that the clothes were mine.
I suspect someone stole the clothes and gave them to her."
The headmaster slapped the table: "That's unreasonable! I'll ask her."
Gu Yunyao quickly stopped her: "Don't worry, Aunt Gu, don't scare the snake. If you are someone from the house, you won't be able to escape."
The headmaster suddenly remembered the strange noise he heard that night and frowned slightly: "I'm afraid it's not someone from the mansion."
"how?"
"One night, I heard a strange noise. It was very light and very fast. When I came out to see it, it was gone. I thought it was a master."
"Master? Then if he comes to steal something, you won't be able to find it?"
"That's not possible," the boss said firmly.
"So, people from the mansion should be the ones who can get my clothes."
Mrs. Yang came over with a plate of snacks, as if offering a treasure: "Ayao, try this."
Gu Yunyao took a look and saw that the snack was already a little damp and was by no means fresh.
"Mom, where did this come from? What a beautiful snack."
"Yeah, it's not only beautiful, but also delicious. I ate one, gave one to Gu Gu, and I hid the rest quietly for you."
She always called the boss "Gu Gu", but somehow she got the name right.
The boss didn't care, and looked down at the plate of snacks: "The snacks were brought to you when you were taken to the lobby that day.
My sister-in-law said she wanted to eat honey, and I remembered that there was a beehive in the garden, so I went to make honey for her.
When she came back, she gave me a snack, that's it, but I didn't think much about it at the time."
She raised her eyes, her eyes filled with coolness: "Could it be..."
Gu Yunyao remained calm, twisting a piece and eating it slowly: "It's very delicious, mother, who gave this to you?"
Yang smiled and said, "It was sent by the new helper from the kitchen."
Gu Yunyao and the headmaster looked at each other.
At this time, voices came from the door of the courtyard.
"Is the second sister here?"
The headmaster frowned: "I'll blast her away."
"No," Gu Yunyao flexed her wrist, "Let her come in. You brought her to the door yourself. Don't blame me."
"OK."
Gu Qingwen was still carrying a food box in her hand. When she saw the snacks placed on Gu Yunyao's small table, she said with a smile, "We sisters really have a good understanding of each other.
I thought about bringing the new snacks made in the kitchen to you to try, but I didn’t expect you to put them here too.”
She put the food box on the table, but before taking out the contents, Gu Yunyao asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I'll bring you some snacks."
"Okay, Gu Qingwen, there's no one else here, so stop pretending. Wearing a mask all day, aren't you tired?" Gu Yunyao glanced at her food box, "Let the maid frame me in the front, and bring snacks in the back.
Do you really think that the head of this county has lost his mind and has forgotten what happened in the past?"
Gu Yunyao went straight to the point, and Gu Qingwen said with all her might: "Ayao, I'm also very guilty about Liu Sang..."
"Call the county boss," Gu Yunyao lowered her eyes and looked at her hands, "If you call me the wrong one again, I'll give you a slap in the face."
"Also, what do you feel guilty about about Liu Sang? You should just be happy secretly, right?
Although you didn’t frame me to death, you were perfectly acquitted, clean and uncontaminated, and you could even carry a food box to the cell to see Liu Sang from time to time.”
"Pretend to be a generous master, Gu Qingwen, when can you stop acting?"
Gu Qingwen bit her lip slightly: "Ah... County Master, that's not the case. You really misunderstood me."
Gu Yunyao picked up a piece of snack, slapped it on her face.
