Picking up a greedy snake [Liao Zhai]

Chapter 73 Water Spray

Song Yushu saw Gu Huai and his party coming, stood up with a smile and greeted them.

Gu Huai cupped his fists respectfully and said, "Uncle Song, long time no see."

Song Yushu stroked his beard with a smile, looked at Gu Huai, stretched out his hand and gestured to his waist and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, you have grown so big in the blink of an eye, the last time I saw you, you are so big High, hahahaha."

Gu Huai also laughed along with him.At this time, he noticed a plump and beautiful woman standing obliquely behind Song Yushu.

The woman was wearing a crimson flower-strewn bust-length skirt, revealing a small piece of icy muscle and jade bone on her chest.The thick black hair was tied up into a high bun, and a shiny golden step dangled from the bun.

Gu Huai silently guessed the identity of this woman in his heart. Seeing that she was dressed luxuriously and elegantly, she must not be a servant girl in this mansion.But seeing her delicate face, she looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, but Song Yushu is a few years older than Gu Xianrong, Gu Huai complained, could this woman be Uncle Song's wife?It seems that this friend of his father is really romantic.

Gu Huai looked away from the woman, smiled at Song Yushu and said, "Is Uncle still in good health recently?"

"Don't worry, your body is very strong. But how is your father's health?"

"Thanks to Uncle's concern, there is nothing serious about my father's body, except for the occasional backache."

So, Song Yushu and Gu Huai greeted each other again, and complimented each other a few words, then asked the servants to send Gu Huai back to the guest room.

Before the servant left, he said to Gu Huai: "Young master is tired from the journey, so I will rest in the mansion for a while. But when you are walking in the mansion, don't go into the east courtyard. There is a mad dog locked up there. Bite!"

Gu Huai was suspicious, but when he thought about other people's family affairs, it was not convenient for him to inquire, so he stopped asking, and replied, "Thank you for reminding me."

The servant bowed and left the guest room.

Gu Huai shook his head, thinking that the Song Mansion might be a troubled place, and it's not suitable to stay for a long time. For the sake of his father's favor, he planned to stay here for a day or two before running away.

Just as Gu Huai was about to sit down, a tall figure jumped out from behind and flew towards him.

Gu Huai subconsciously reached out to hug that person, but couldn't bear the weight of the other person, and was directly crushed to the ground.

He was pressed heavily to the ground, but there was no pain, because the man's arms were firmly placed on his back, preventing his body from directly touching the ground.

Gu Huai sighed, he forgot that he was carrying such a thing with him.

Lan Yuyan pinched his chin and asked: "Why are you sighing, do you despise me?"

"How dare I," Gu Huai pushed the other person's chest, but failed to push away, "Can you get off of me? I'm about to be crushed to death by you."

Lan Yuyan nodded obediently, and pulled Gu Huai to stand up.

Gu Huai poured out a glass of water, picked up the glass and drank a couple of gulps, wiped the water stains around his mouth, and said, "I think this Song Mansion is weird, it looks a bit abnormal."

"What's abnormal?" Lan Yuyan asked perfunctorily, he obviously didn't care about the situation of the Song Mansion at all, his eyes were fixed on Gu Huai's slender neck that was raised while drinking water, Adam's apple wriggling when swallowing.

"Nowhere is normal."

"What are you afraid of? With me, no one can hurt you."

Lan Yuyan couldn't bear it anymore, she pulled Gu Huai to sit on her body, pinched his jaw to make him look up, opened her mouth and swallowed his Adam's apple.

Gu Huai was taken aback by Lan Yuyan's action, and then his body bounced as if struck by lightning, itchy and ashamed, he was so angry that he directly pressed his palm on Lan Yuyan's forehead, and pushed him away up.

Gu Huai looked at the bronze mirror and found a purple-pink mass in the center of his neck. He looked back at Lan Yuyan with a headache, and saw the culprit lowering his head and playing with his fingers innocently. He was so angry that he picked up a porcelain cup and threw it at the opponent.

The moment he threw it over, he regretted it.What if Erqing is really hit by him?

Sure enough, Lan Yuyan watched the porcelain cup fly towards him, neither dodging nor dodging, and finally was hit directly on the forehead with a "bang", and his forehead was instantly bruised.

Gu Huai hurried over, held Lan Yuyan's face and blew towards the wound, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, does it hurt? Why don't you hide for a while?"

Lan Yuyan collapsed into Gu Huai's arms as if she had lost all her bones, and said aggrievedly: "It hurts, I'm going to be crushed to death by you, you murdered my husband."

Gu Huai was angry and distressed, and wanted to get angry with him, but when he saw Lan Yuyan looking at him pitifully with big eyes, his anger was instantly extinguished, so he blushed and said, "You... ...don't talk nonsense."

Lan Yuyan chuckled, and said roguely: "You kiss me, and I will come back to life."

Gu Huai let go of him, turned his head away in a panic, and said to him, "Lie down here for a while, I see a bump on your head, I'll get you some cold water to compress."

After that, he opened the door and walked out.

Lan Yuyan changed to a more comfortable position and lay on the bed. He held his head in his hands and tilted his legs. It felt good to be taken care of by Gu Huai as a wounded patient. He should cherish it and enjoy it for a while.

Gu Huai went out of the house, wanting to get some cold water back.

He walked to a circular arch, and suddenly heard a woman's wailing from inside.

"Mother, mother, where are you... My daughter misses you so much... Mother..."

The voice was very shrill, like crying blood, full of resentment and sorrow.

Gu Huai shuddered at the sound, and stopped involuntarily, looking into the arch.

Inside, it should be the "East Courtyard" that the servant just mentioned.The servant told him that there was a mad dog imprisoned in the east courtyard. Now it seems that this "mad dog" should refer to something else.

Gu Huai shook his head, and told himself that this was someone else's family business, and he should not care so much about it. Just as he was about to lift his legs to leave, he heard an even more mournful cry.

"Bitch, you killed my baby, killed my mother, and even tried to kill me... Ah! Don't come here... Help, help, help!"

Gu Huai's footsteps stopped, and he turned his head to look inside the door again.

A pair of withered and yellow weeds grew in the yard, and several tall and dense towering trees covered the sky above the yard, leaving only a few rays of sunlight.When the wind blows, there is still a faint smell of rot and mold.

It doesn't look like a place for people to live in.

While Gu Huai was in a trance, a dirty face suddenly appeared in front of him. The man was unkempt, unable to tell whether it was a man or a woman. He rushed to Gu Huai with his teeth and claws, and grabbed Gu Huai's sleeve suddenly. Shouted: "You save me, I'm going to be killed, please save me!"

It was the voice of that woman just now.

Gu Huai was taken aback, before he could make a sound, he saw a few men dressed as servants running out of the courtyard, holding down the woman with all their strength, pulling her away from Gu Huai, and carrying her in cursingly.

One of the leading servants lowered his head and said to Gu Huai, "Young Master Gu, I'm so sorry that I surprised you."

Gu Huai shook his head, and said, "It's okay, I just wanted to get some water, but I accidentally walked here. Keep busy and don't worry about me."

After that, he turned and left.
