This time the noise inside finally stopped for a moment, followed by the sound of people's footsteps.
The next moment, the courtyard door was opened from the inside.
Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong took a closer look, and saw a thin and gray-haired old man standing in front of them.
The old man's face was numb, and his squinted eyes were full of vicissitudes.
He looked at the two people in front of him, with some doubts, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
If the address is correct, judging from the age of the person in front of him, it should be that Gu Yiping.
A smile instantly appeared on Gu Yundong's face, and he asked, "Are you the old man of the Gu family, Gu Yiping? We are from the capital."
Capital? ? ?
Hearing these two seemingly distant words, Gu Yiping's numb face finally flashed with excitement, and there was such a gleam of light in his eyes.
But he was quickly suppressed by him. He looked at the two of them, took a deep breath slowly, and said, "Come in first."
Then he turned around and limped into the yard. But even so, you can still see his eager steps from the back.
Gu Yundong looked at his legs in surprise, and then immediately looked away.
Normally, it is not easy for exiles to live here for twenty years, let alone all beards and tails.
She and Shao Qingyuan followed closely behind and walked in.
Although the courtyard of the Gu family is dilapidated, it occupies a large area and has many rooms. There are rooms on the left and right sides, a lot of things are piled up in the yard, and a vegetable field has been opened up in the corner.
Gu Yiping led them into the main room, and pointed to the unreliable stool beside him, "Sit down."
Immediately, he shouted to the outside, "Old woman, pour some water." The voice trembled with excitement.
He turned his head and said to the two, "In the countryside, there is no good tea, so I can only pour some water to quench your thirst."
Shao Qingyuan didn't care about this, "It doesn't matter."
After a while, a woman who looked about the same age as Gu Yiping came in.
"Two drink tea."
This voice
Isn't it the sharp beating and scolding they heard outside the courtyard before?
I don't know who she was scolding, but I heard another woman's voice in the yard.
Madam Gu didn't leave after delivering the water. She sat on the stool on the other side and stared straight at the two of them.
Gu Yundong, ""
Gu Yiping didn't say anything, and he didn't seem to say anything when there was a big quarrel in the yard just now.
Seeing that Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong didn't drink any water, he narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "I don't know what your name is, young master?"
"My surname is Shao."
Hearing the word Shao, Gu Yiping's face suddenly changed, as if thinking of something bad, the hand holding the crutch tightly tightened.
He was still able to restrain himself, but Mrs. Gu stood up abruptly, and said angrily, "You are from the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion? Why, the surnamed Shao has caused us such misery, and you still want to kill us all?"
Shao Qingyuan shook his head, "No, I have nothing to do with the Marquis of Huaiyin. It just happens that my surname is Shao, and my hometown is in Xuanhe Mansion."
When Gu Yiping heard this, his face relaxed, and he let out a slow breath.
He glared at Mrs. Gu, who sat back awkwardly.
Muttered in his mouth, "Who told him not to understand."
"Shut up." Gu Yiping asked with a smile on his face, "Young Master Shao came here from the capital to find us, but what's the matter?" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
