Chapter 11
Hedge garden.
Gu Changgeng sat in front of his desk, dressed in blue and black hair, with a handsome face, but his picturesque eyebrows and eyes frowned slightly.
Uncle Gu put the tea aside and said, "the young master has been sitting here since he left the house. Is it not smooth to repair the general's jade pendant?"
"No, a skilled jeweler once made a living in the palace. He knew a way to repair his father's jade pendant."
Gu Bo was surprised, "really?"
Gu Changgeng nodded slightly, "really, although it can't be completely repaired, it can leave the smallest defect on the jade pendant."
"It's a happy thing. Why is the young master so worried when he comes back? But there's not enough silver to repair the jade pendant? The old slave can..."
Gu Changgeng interrupted Gu Bo's words, "the silver for repairing the jade pendant has been paid. I made an appointment with the teacher to pick up the jade pendant in ten days. I was just thinking..." after a long pause, "Gu Bo, do you think people can really change in a short time?"
"Did the young master say three young ladies?"
Gu Changgeng was silent and acquiesced to Gu Bo's words.
Gu Bo thought for a moment and said, "I heard that the fifth lady died early. When the three young ladies were only five or six years old, they were often beaten by the second childe. Guan Chaifang was hungry for several days. The old lady and the prime minister didn't care. They almost lost their lives several times until the young master entered the prime minister's house, and the second young master began to target you. She... Seems to be better."
The first two times Lin Qingqian came to the fence garden and saw that she cared about Gu Changgeng. Gu Bo couldn't help saying, "although the third miss is very hateful, she... Is also a poor man."
Gu Changgeng looked at the pattern on the tea cup with a cool look. Gu Bo couldn't see through his mind.
After a while, he seemed not to want to continue the topic, waved his hand and let Gu Bo out.
……
After that sunrise, Lin Qingqian lived a full life in Liuyuan these two days. He thought, don't get up and annoy Gu Changgeng. When the jade pendant is repaired, for her sake, Gu Changgeng won't have so much prejudice against her.
But the sky was not as good as people wanted. In the morning, they tried their best to avoid Lin Qingyuan. When it was dark, they ran in in in a hurry in spring and summer.
"Miss, miss... Things are bad!"
Lin Qingqian lay on his couch and asked lazily, "what's up?"
"The maidservant just passed by the front yard and heard that Gu Changgeng and the second young master were fighting and hurt the second young master. In a rage, the old lady asked the bodyguard to whip Gu Changgeng thirty times and shut people in the firewood room. She also said that no one was allowed to give him food these two days."
Lin Qingqian told Chunxia to pay more attention to the fence garden. After Chunxia learned about Gu Changgeng, he hurried back to report it.
Lin Qingqian frowned, "why did Gu Changgeng and his second brother fight?"
"I don't know. I heard that the second young master seemed to talk to Gu Changgeng about... General Gu."
Lin Qingqian understood without thinking. He helped his forehead and sighed.
Lin Qingyuan and Yuan Shen are really close brothers and sisters, and their mouth poison is estimated to be inherited. The book says that she opened her mouth and shut her mouth to scold the son of a national thief. Lin Qingyuan often scolded Gu Yun as a traitor of adultery and treason. It can be imagined how angry Gu Changgeng would be.
Lin Qingqian subconsciously wants to go to the front yard to find old lady Lin. Chunxia pulls her, "what are you going to do?"
"I'll go to my grandmother and maybe I can help Gu Changgeng talk about love."
As soon as spring and summer heard this, they were immediately worried. "The maid advised the young lady not to go. The old lady always loved the second young master. When the young lady went, she could not help Gu Changgeng. She would also annoy the old lady and punish the young lady."
Lin Qingqian was excited and stopped.
Gu Changgeng was punished. Her help was a good opportunity to brush her good feelings, but she was a common woman who was not popular with the Lin family. It was too possible to help Chang Geng beg for mercy.
After thinking for a while, Lin Qingqian said, "in spring and summer, you go to the front yard to inquire more about Gu Changgeng with other servant girls to see if Gu Changgeng's injury is serious and how the situation is. You'd better help me see how many people are guarding Gu Changgeng in the firewood room."
Chunxia showed a hesitant expression. Lin Qingqian saw through her mind, smiled and said, "don't worry, I can still go to the firewood house to rob people. I'm not stupid. I just want to know the situation."
"Well, I'll go to the front yard to inquire."
After two quarters of an hour, spring and summer came back and briefly explained the situation. Gu Changgeng was whipped 30 times. The servants present said that he was beaten to pieces and the wound was very frightening. But Gu Changgeng Leng bit his lips and bled. He endured to say nothing from beginning to end. Only one person was left outside the firewood room to guard him.
Lin Qingqian couldn't help but sigh that he was a master only after he had suffered a lot. No wonder Gu Changgeng became a powerful Regent in the future. He was so patient at a young age that others couldn't match him.
"Spring and summer, we still have medicine for trauma? Find it out and give it to me."
Lin Qingqian, who was worried about spring and summer, "Miss, shouldn't you want to..."
"No, since Gu Changgeng's injury is not light, he will be released from the firewood house in two days. He must be okay. I'll send him the medicine at that time."
Chunxia believed it and breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, I'll find the remaining Jincang medicine for miss."
"Well, go."
……
Tonight, Lin Qingqian was unconventional. She rushed to the side room early in spring, summer, autumn and winter to have a rest. She said it was cold and didn't need to wait in the room. She would shout when she had something to do.
At midnight, Lin Qingqian on the bed opened his eyes, listened carefully to the silence of the side room, opened the bed curtain, came down from the bed, crept open the door and slipped out.
Thinking that Gu Changgeng was punished for not eating for two days, Lin Qingqian specially went to the fire room in the yard and brought some steamed buns in the steamer before sneaking to the firewood room in the drizzle.
Thanks to these two days, Lin Qingqing quietly set a lot of words in spring, summer, autumn and winter to make clear the buildings in the prime minister's house. She also accurately touched the firewood house in the dark night.
The guard outside the door was sleeping. The door was locked and the key was hanging around his waist.
Lin Qingqian didn't think she could touch the key like a ghost in a TV play. After thinking about it, she went around to the right side of the firewood house, opened the wooden window, and climbed in carefully along the window edge.
At the moment when his feet were on the ground, Gu Changgeng noticed it in the room. His weak voice shouted with vigilance, "who!"
Afraid of waking up the bodyguard outside, Lin Qingqian quickly replied, "brother Changgeng, it's me."
But it was still late. The guard outside was awakened and wondered, "strange, I heard something just now, like the sound of opening a window..."
The bodyguard wants to open the door and come in to check. Lin Qingqian is in a hurry and pinches his nose, "meow... Meow..."
The bodyguard outside the firewood room put down the lock and cursed in a low voice: "damn wild cat, you always string around in the middle of the night. You have to catch it and drink the stew another day."
Swearing, the door was quiet again, and the guard should go to sleep again.
Gu Changgeng sat in front of his desk, dressed in blue and black hair, with a handsome face, but his picturesque eyebrows and eyes frowned slightly.
