Chapter Thirteen: When things go wrong, there must be a demon
Gu Yunyao didn't rush back to the courtyard and was puzzled.
It had been like this before, and Lu Chuanlin also said that he had wanted to break off the engagement for a long time. It should be easy to break off the marriage.
Why did this scumbag suddenly come to your door again today and say he won't break off the engagement?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
She had promised Shen Munan to watch her break off the engagement, and now this scumbag did it again.
Shen Munan is not someone to be trifled with, and with great power and resources, he might be able to help find a way back.
No matter what, I have to call off the engagement as soon as possible and not get entangled with the scumbag anymore.
She stood behind the Moon Gate and waited for a moment, and sure enough she saw Lu Chuanlin coming out and looking for Gu Qingwen by the familiar route.
Gu Yunyao followed lightly.
Gu Qingwen was reading letters at the table when she heard the maid outside reporting that Lu Chuanlin was here. She quickly put her things away and put some powder on her face in the mirror.
When Lu Chuanlin entered the room, he saw her half-folded letter, the red corners of her eyes and her pale face.
"Wen'er, what's wrong?"
Gu Qingwen wiped her eyes and put on a smile: "It's okay, I..."
Lu Chuanlin couldn't believe it, so he stepped forward and opened the half-folded letter: "Isn't this what I wrote to you?"
"Well," Gu Qingwen lowered her head, like a pitiful and helpless little bird, "I miss Brother Chuanlin, so I took out the letter you wrote and read it to comfort me."
Lu Chuanlin's heart surged and he held her in his arms.
Gu Yunyao almost vomited on the treetops by the back window.
Gu Qingwen raised her head and looked at Lu Chuanlin, her eyes innocent and harmless: "Brother Chuanlin, why are you free today?"
"I..." Lu Chuanlin looked into her eyes, a little speechless.
"What's wrong?"
"Wen'er, today I am..."
Gu Qingwen looked surprised, pushed him away and said sadly: "Are you here to break off the engagement with my second sister?
Brother Chuanlin, I have fallen in love with you, and I made a wish before the Buddha that I would not marry you unless I was you, but...
However, I can't hurt my second sister! If you break off the engagement with her, how should I deal with it?"
Lu Chuanlin sighed and said distressedly: "Wen'er, you are just too kind. You always think about her. Is she worth it? Is she worthy?"
Gu Qingwen shook her head, tears streaming down her face: "She is my sister, and I deserve to sacrifice whatever I want."
Lu Chuanlin shook his hand hard, his eyes full of pain: "Well, I'm not here to break off the engagement today, I'm here to tell her that the engagement remains as before."
Gu Qingwen choked: "Yes...is it?"
"Yes, my mother said that this marriage was originally arranged by General Gu. We cannot break it off at will, otherwise the world will think that we are ungrateful people."
Gu Qingwen twisted the handkerchief hard and her voice trembled: "Yes, Madam is right, it is true..."
She turned around, her shoulders trembling slightly: "Brother Chuanlin, please go back quickly. I'm a little uncomfortable and want to rest."
"Wen'er," Lu Chuanlin took two steps forward and hugged her, "I know this is unfair to you. Don't worry, I will be good to you. My heart has always been with you.
Gu Yunyao is nothing, in my eyes, she is just an object..."
Gu Yunyao heard this clearly, took out a black pill from the Chaos Ring, pointed it at Lu Chuanlin and threw it in through the window.
The pill lightly touched Lu Chuanlin's hem and dispersed quickly.
After a while, the two people hugging each other loosened a little.
Gu Qingwen lightly covered her mouth and nose with her handkerchief.
Lu Chuanlin also rubbed his nose with his fingers as if nothing had happened.
Gu Yunyao snickered outside the window and retreated from the treetops.
She actually made that stinky pill according to the ancient elixir recipe that her grandfather had hidden. It was so smelly that no matter how hard you washed it, it would be useless. It would take at least three days for it to dissipate.
As he walked into the yard, he pondered that Lu Chuanlin's refusal to break off the engagement was definitely not for the reason stated on the surface. He thought he would tell the truth to Gu Qingwen, but he didn't.
This scumbag is quite scheming.
As soon as he passed through a moon gate, he saw the maid in Gu Qingxue's yard leading him to hurry.
The man was carrying a medicine box and must be a doctor.
Thinking of Gu Qingxue's drowned appearance, Gu Yunyao felt much happier.
Gu Qingxue not only fell into the water and caught the cold, but now she also had little red dots all over her body. At first there were just one or two, but after a while they became all over the place, which was frightening.
The second lady quickly ordered someone to call a doctor.
The doctor took his pulse carefully and said: "Madam, the young lady is suffering from the cold and is weak. In addition, the water is not clean, which is why she is like this.
I will prescribe a prescription to dispel the cold, apply some ointment to remove the poison, and take a look before talking."
Gu Qingxue said worriedly: "Doctor, will my face be disfigured?"
"Miss, take medicine on time and apply it on time, and try not to touch or scratch with your hands."
The doctor prescribed the prescription and left the ointment behind, which was sent away by the little maid.
"Mother," Gu Qingxue wanted to grab her, but then put her hand down, "It was all that bitch Gu Yunyao who hurt me. You have to vent your anger on me."
The second lady said while applying medicine to her: "You need to take good care of yourself first."
"Mother," Gu Qingxue refused to accept, "Why are you like this? I have been bullied like this by Gu Yunyao, are you indifferent?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why am I indifferent? Didn't I come to see you as soon as I heard about it?"
"What's the point of coming to see me? What I want is to vent my anger and let Gu Yunyao die!"
The second lady barely suppressed her anger: "I told you not to be anxious, but you just didn't listen.
What do you mean if you push her into the water? You can't kill her. You can't hit her with one blow, so why bother?"
Gu Qingxue's eyes widened: "Mother, are you accusing me? Did I want to push her? It's obviously Liushuang who is beside the eldest sister! She said it."
"Liu Shuang is your eldest sister's confidant, how could she do such a thing?
Besides, she is just a maid, do you just listen to what she says? Xueer, when will you understand something? Share your mother's worries like your sister? "
Gu Qingxue turned away and said, "Since mother thinks that I am not as good as my sister, then I should go see my sister and I will take the medicine myself."
"you……"
There were sounds of footsteps outside the house, and the maid came in and reported: "Second Madam, the eldest lady, please come over."
The second lady put down the ointment and said, "Think carefully for yourself whether you did something wrong."
The second lady turned and left, and Gu Qingxue threw the pillow to the ground.
"Who in the eldest sister's courtyard came to report the letter?"
The maid quickly said: "It's Sister Liushuang."
"I came just in time. I stopped her and said I had something to ask."
Liu Shuang was left behind, but the second lady didn't take it seriously and hurried to see Gu Qingwen.
When Gu Qingxue saw Liu Shuang, she had already washed herself and changed her clothes. Not only did she not catch the cold, but she also didn't have the red spots like her, which made her even more angry.
"Liu Shuang, it was you who suggested to me to push Gu Yunyao into the water when she was not prepared, right?"
