Chapter 91: Suspicious
Li Mao withdrew his hand, nodded his head with a smile, and said, “You’re recovering well, you don’t need to prescribe any more medicine, just take the medicine in your hand, and then you only need to take supplements. Do vigorous exercise…”
Li Mao told the two children to leave.
Gu Jingyun stood at the entrance of the hospital and said happily: “Let’s buy more vegetables and go back in the evening to celebrate.”
Li Baolu knew that he had been eating lightly these days, so he nodded and said, “Okay.”
The young couple stood on the side of the road to call for a car. There was no way. The capital was too big, and it was a little far from the vegetable market and their residence.
There are ox carts, donkey carts, mule carts and horse carts available for rent by the roadside. Li Baolu calculated the money in their hands, and rented a mule cart very proudly. The two arrived at the place near their home in less than a quarter of an hour. Vegetable market.
He lifted the curtain and found that there were a lot of people on the street today. There were all kinds of flowers and plants on both sides of the road. Among them, chrysanthemums were the most popular, and Li Baolu’s eyes could hardly be opened.
“Why is the flower market so lively today?” Around the outside of the vegetable market is a place that sells flowers and plants. Usually, there are only a few stalls. Pull the scooter into the alley and sell it on the scooter.
“In seven days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival,” the driver said as he carefully drove his car inside, taking time to answer, “Miss you forgot the time, the flower market just started to be lively today, and it will be even more lively in two days. When the streets are full of lanterns, flowers and plants.”
Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun talked about Beijing dialect, so he didn’t suspect that the two were not from the capital, just thought they had forgotten the time.
The two of them really forgot the time, and it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, which meant that they had been away from home for half a year.
Gu Jingyun was stunned, looking at the flowers and plants outside in silence, he didn’t know what happened to his uncle and the others in Qiongzhou, whether his mother was sick, whether it was safe for his aunt to be pregnant, one of the family was often sick, the other was pregnant, and the uncle and a big man didn’t know. Can you take care of…
Li Baolu was also thinking of her relatives in Qiongzhou, she couldn’t help but said, “I’m homesick.”
Gu Jingyun put away the sadness on his face, and said lightly: “We will always meet.”
“Young master, girl, the vegetable market is here!”
Li Baolu jumped out of the car first, turned around and helped Gu Jingyun out of the car before paying.
The coachman asked with a smile, “Does the girl want me to wait? I’ll take you back in a while.”
“No, let’s walk back slowly, uncle is easy to go.”
Gu Jingyun had already turned to look at the chrysanthemums placed not far away, he turned his head to Li Baolu and said, “The flowers here are pretty good, and we’ll choose some to put back under the eaves and decorate our yard. ”
After all, it was the first time for the two of them to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone. Li Baolu nodded generously, “No problem.”
Gu Jingyun recovered, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching. The two children walked around the vegetable market generously, bought countless ingredients, and planned to treat themselves today and tomorrow.
Because Gu Jingyun was the main chef, he had to choose the ingredients. He was dressed in a soapy white Confucian shirt. He was obviously a scholar, but he came to buy vegetables, which made the vendors look straight, and some even fell down just to see him bump into someone. on the ground.
Li Baolu: “…It’s not a good thing to be too handsome, and it’s easy to cause various accidents.”
Gu Jingyun couldn’t help laughing softly, turning his head and holding her hand with a smile in his eyes, “Let’s go, this is enough for us to eat for two days.”
There were too many things, so Li Baolu hired a coolie to help pick them, and then went to pick flowers.
Gu Jingyun is not so conspicuous in the flower market, because there are also many scholars picking flowers here.
Flowers can not only be given to elders, lovers, friends, but also teachers, so they are widely loved by students. The more you go out, the more scholars you meet.
Gu Jingyun is not conspicuous here, but Li Baolu is conspicuous.
At this time, men and women are very strict. Even the daughter of a small family will wear a curtain cap when going out. Li Baolu not only does not wear a curtain cap, but also wears a short lapel. , but she looks like a servant, but she is indeed dressed as a girl, and the most important thing is that her hand is still in the hands of a scholar!
is simply indecent and hurts the eyes.
Shouting in their hearts, the hurt-eyed scholars secretly used their eyes to peek at the hands they held together, and then peeked at the faces of Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu.
The more he looked, the more he sighed, it was like a flower stuck in cow dung, the scholar looked clean and handsome, why did he want to look at such a little black girl?
It’s not like that little black girl’s family is rich or powerful, right?
I don’t know that Li Baolu, who has been rich in the second generation, is still picking up potted plants with great interest. While picking them, he asked Gu Jingyun curiously, “Why do those people always look at us secretly?”
Gu Jingyun glanced at him holding Li Baolu’s hand, and smiled slightly: “Don’t worry about them, don’t always choose yellow chrysanthemums, but also choose some other colors, when the time comes, they will be layered, very beautiful.”
Li Baolu pouted and muttered: “It’s not that yellow chrysanthemums are too expensive…”
Gu Jingyun was amused, patted her head and said, “It’s okay, if you are short of money, just sell the flowers. When you get to Chongyang, the chrysanthemums will be more abundant, and the price may be higher.”
Li Baolu thought about it and agreed. She chose several kinds of chrysanthemums and asked the farmers how to feed them. This flower should at least survive Chongyang.
Because I bought a lot of flowers, and they had pots and mud, one coolie couldn’t pick them all, so Li Baolu hired two more.
The three people put the potted plants in place and lifted the burden, when they heard the noise from the stall beside them, they raised their heads and stretched their necks to see.
Gu Jingyun glanced over there and said indifferently, “Let’s go, so as not to be affected by the excitement.”
In the center of the crowd, a vendor pulled a scholar and said reluctantly: “Son, this green chrysanthemum was the leader of the Baoding Flower Fair last year, and sold it for 280 taels. I only need 50 taels for this pot. If it’s too expensive, why bother stopping my business?”
The scholar blushed and said: “You green chrysanthemum is not pure, twenty-five taels is already a high price…”
“Brother Liu is wrong,” a scholar next to him said coquettishly, shaking his fan, “Brother Liu is going to give this green chrysanthemum to Gu Hanlin. You don’t choose a good one, but you choose an impure one,” the scholar said. “Even if you can’t find a better one, what’s wrong with this pot of fifty taels? Isn’t Gu Hanlin worth fifty taels of green chrysanthemum? Gu Hanlin, what do you think?”
Gu Huaijin’s face was still as warm as water, neither angry nor annoyed, he just smiled at Liu Scholar: “If you want to give me green chrysanthemum, it’s not necessary, although green chrysanthemum is rare, my favorite is golden thread chrysanthemum. It’s a pity to send this flower to me.”
Not only was Liu Shusheng’s eyes red with emotion, but the onlookers all bowed their heads and praised Gu Huaijin’s generosity.
Only the coquettish young man who was shaking his fan curled his lips in disdain.
Gu Jingyun deliberately paused on his face for a moment when he swept his gaze before leading Li Baolu away. The three big men who were carrying the burden quickly followed.
Gu Huaijin knew that today was designed by someone, so he was quite impatient, and still had a three-point smile on his face to find an excuse to leave.
Turning around, Gu Huaijin saw the familiar figure again, his eyes paused, and he turned back to call his long follower, “Changshun, that person…”
When he turned his head, the figure was already submerged in the crowd. Gu Huaijin frowned and instructed Changshun, “Take someone along this street and look outside to see if you can find someone.”
“Yes.” Changshun immediately led someone to chase after him.
The coquettish young man followed Gu Huaijin’s gaze, his eyes were contemplative, but he asked in a condescending manner: “Hey, Gu Hanlin has found something interesting? Let’s all have a good time?”
The always gentle Gu Huaijin rarely showed anger on his face, he clenched his fists, suppressed his anger, glanced at the young man, and said lightly: “Cong Zhi has time to mind these nostalgic things, so why not study hard to prepare for the next test. Your teacher can be a high school champion at the age of nineteen, and you are now approaching and you have not achieved anything, if he knew something in Qiongzhou, I don’t know how sad he would be.”
Wei Cong stared at him with cold eyes and sneered: “Oh, so Young Master Gu still remembers his tutor. I thought you forgot that you had such a relative.”
Gu Huaijin lowered his eyes and sighed, “Whether you believe it or not, it is not my wish to divorce your sister and aunt.”
After saying that, he turned around and left in a rather wistful way.
Weicong watched him leave with hatred in his eyes, and sneered in his heart, was he not what he wanted?
Gu Lekang was born prematurely in June. Not only does he look like him, but he is also alive and kicking. Do you think he is a three-year-old child?
Whose premature babies are not raised like medicine jars?
What’s more, the Gu family has divorced his aunt, so why did he get divorced?
Weicong took a deep breath, suppressed the resentment in his heart, turned around and said to his servant: “You follow the servants of the Gu family to see who they are looking for, just now Gu Huaijin’s face is wrong.”
also graciously complied, and reminded in a low voice before leaving: “Grandpa, grandma is still waiting for you at home, why don’t you go home first?”
“I know, I know, let’s go.” Wei Cong impatiently waved the person away and wandered the streets by himself. Who would be patient to go back and listen to the lesson on a good day?
Changshun took people back and forth to walk the street three times, but no suspicious person was found.
And Gu Jingyun returned home early with a group of people walking the streets and alleys.
Li Baolu was a little dizzy, and after a while, she said in surprise, “So we can still walk back through the trail.”
And it only took a quarter of an hour, nearly half the time, is there?
“We come together every time we go out. How do you know those small alleys lead to our house?”
“Guess.”
Li Baolu stared, “What if the alley is blocked?”
“Turn back and start again,” Gu Jingyun gave her a strange look and asked, “Are you in a hurry?”
Li Baolu choked, turned and ran to carry things with the three porters.
