Volume 6: Dream Record Chapter 433: In fact, Yuan Xudong is the villain
In the backyard of Gao's house, Jiang, who was covered in wounds, lay on the bed and fell asleep, still muttering:
"It's what the old slave deserves, Miss, please don't let Miss know!"
Gao Hui wiped away her tears sadly and told the servant:
"Serve well, and when the time comes, help the nurse get up and take the medicine!"
"Yes, Miss!"
After giving instructions to the servants, Gao Hui rushed out of the room angrily and walked quickly in the corridor. The maid Chuntao followed closely behind her. Gao Hui said angrily:
"Tell me, why did my father beat the wet nurse? Don't tell me that the wet nurse was greedy for money. She has been in charge of the money in my room for more than ten years and has never given less than a penny. My father hasn't been so angry for a long time. If he wasn't extremely angry, he would never use such a severe punishment on the old servant in the family!"
"Your servant..."
The maid Chuntao hesitated and dared not speak. Seeing her like this, Gao Hui threatened cruelly:
"Do you think my father is the only one who can whip?"
"I dare not!"
Seeing her mistress so angry, the maid Chuntao was so scared that she knelt on the ground and cried. Gao Hui frowned and scolded:
"Hurry up and tell me!"
After taking a look at her mistress, the maid Chuntao knelt on the ground and said incoherently:
"My mother had been looking for trouble with a woman before. That woman was engaged to Mr. Ouyang. She opened a teahouse called Banzhaimian on Maxing Street!"
"What?"
…
The next day, Gao Hui took her maid Chuntao to settle accounts with Zhao Paner. As the carriage rumbled forward, she looked at Chuntao who was sitting next to her and said:
"Zhao Pan'er harmed our nanny like that, I can't just let it go!"
Although Chun Tao knew that if this matter was discussed, it was actually her mother who was at fault first and she could not blame anyone else, she could not disobey her mistress and could only nod and respond:
"Miss, the Osmanthus Alley is just ahead. I heard they live nearby!"
"good!"
…
After a while, the carriage stopped at the entrance of Guihua Lane. Chuntao helped Gao Hui get off the carriage. They searched door to door and finally found the largest courtyard where Zhao Pan'er lived. Looking at the plaque of Xiao Mansion hanging on the lintel, Gao Hui was inexplicably scared. Could this courtyard be the home of that bad guy?
Because she was not sure whether Zhao Pan'er really lived here, Gao Hui asked Chuntao to knock on the door and ask. At this time, Gao Hui's face suddenly changed, and she squatted down holding her stomach in pain. Hearing her young lady 's cry of pain, the maid Chuntao hurried back. She supported Gao Hui and said in panic:
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
"fine!"
Gao Hui's face was pale. She bent over, holding her stomach with one hand and supporting her maid Chuntao with the other. It took a while for her to recover from the pain and she said:
"I, I think I'm about to have my period, go find me a cloak!"
"good!"
The maid Chuntao hurriedly went to find a cloak. Gao Hui wanted to sit on the steps of Xiao's house for a while, but she had a heavy pain in her stomach, so she could only bend over and move step by step. At this time, Zhao Pan'er, wearing a green silk skirt and carrying a basket, was about to go out. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Gao Hui walking with her face full of pain, holding her stomach, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked:
"Girl, what's wrong with you?"
“I…I…”
Gao Hui was hesitant and unable to speak. Seeing her like this, Zhao Pan'er immediately understood her predicament and hurriedly said:
"Why don't you go inside and rest for a while? Come, I'll help you!"
"Thank you, sister!"
Gao Hui just felt unbearable pain in her abdomen. It was inevitable that she felt a little awkward in the alley, so she asked Zhao Pan'er to help her into the Xiao Mansion.
After entering the Xiao residence, Zhao Paner brought a basin of hot water for Gao Hui to wash herself, and then gave her a set of her own clothes and said with a smile:
"The clothes are old, don't mind. Do they still fit?"
"It's appropriate. Thank you, sister!"
Gao Hui's voice came from behind the screen. Soon, she came out from behind the screen with a red face. She had changed into Zhao Pan'er's light green skirt and thanked him:
"This dress fits me well, thank you, sister!"
"What's the matter with that?"
Zhao Paner looked up at Gao Hui and said with a smile:
"What day is it?"
Hearing this, Gao Hui felt a little embarrassed. She sat down next to Zhao Pan'er and said softly:
"This is only my first day. I don't know what happened to me. I forgot everything in an instant!"
"It's okay, you should be fine after drinking this brown sugar water!"
Zhao Pan'er smiled and handed the prepared brown sugar water to Gao Hui. Gao Hui only took one look at the bowl of brown sugar water and refused:
"Brown sugar water? Brown sugar water has no effect on me. I used to drink it often, but it still hurts me after drinking it!"
Looking at Gao Hui who was looking down shyly, Zhao Paner smiled generously and said:
"This is not ordinary brown sugar water. This is the Angelica, Astragalus and Wolfberry Drink I made. It is the best for regulating menstruation and unblocking blood vessels!"
Hearing what Zhao Pan'er said, Gao Hui looked at the bowl of brown sugar water with some hesitation. Seeing her like this, Zhao Pan'er smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry, there's no knockout drug in here. I won't knock you out and sell you off!"
"I'm not... Ouch!"
Gao Huicai smiled, but then she groaned in pain again. She immediately picked up the bowl of brown sugar water and drank it. Seeing her innocence, Zhao Pan'er couldn't help but smile. If she was really a bad guy, this weak girl would have been sold thousands of times. However, Zhao Pan'er quite liked such simple-minded girls . They were cute and interesting!
After drinking the brown sugar water, Gao Hui gently put down the porcelain bowl and said with some nostalgia:
"It sounds so familiar. I think I saw my mother drinking it when I was a child. Unfortunately, she has already..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhao Pan'er had already understood Gao Hui's meaning. Seeing her sad expression, she couldn't help but whispered:
"Your mother is from Jiangnan, right? Girls over there drink this when they are inconvenienced!"
"Well, her ancestral home is in Mingzhou!"
Gao Hui nodded. At this moment, she felt that she was almost well, and said with joy:
"It really works. I don't feel as much pain anymore. Thank you, sister!"
"You're welcome, it's just a small favor!"
Gao Hui was afraid that Chuntao would get anxious if she couldn't find her, so she stood up, bowed to Zhao Pan'er and said goodbye:
"Sister, my little girl is probably looking for me outside right now. I have to go out and take a look. I will come back another day to thank you for the gift of clothes!"
"It's okay. Girls all have inconveniences sometimes. Meeting each other is fate. Maybe we were good sisters in our previous life!"
Zhao Pan'er followed Gao Hui and stood up. They bowed to each other and said with a smile:
"Look, my clothes fit you very well. From a distance, people would think we are sisters!"
"Yeah, thank you, sister!"
"You're welcome!"
Zhao Pan'er sent Gao Hui out of the yard. As soon as Gao Hui went out, she saw the maid Chuntao holding a cloak and looking around anxiously not far away. She bowed lightly to Zhao Pan'er in the door, and trotted all the way over to Chuntao. Gao Hui then remembered that she had not asked her sister whether Zhao Pan'er lived nearby, nor did she introduce each other to her sister. At this time, Yuan Xudong came from the alley. Gao Hui's face changed, and she hurriedly pulled the maid Chuntao to the side to hide, trying to avoid this bad guy. Unfortunately, Guihua Alley was so wide, and Gao Hui was wearing the light green skirt that Zhao Pan'er often wore. How could Yuan Xudong not see her?
Yuan Xudong was walking in the middle of the alley, Gao Hui was walking on the side with her maid Chuntao, with her back to Yuan Xudong. The two of them just passed by each other, and the maid Chuntao said in confusion:
"Miss, aren't we looking for Zhao Pan'er anymore?"
"I'll look for it another day, go!"
Gao Hui lowered her voice and walked hurriedly with her maid Chun Tao, fearing that they would be discovered by Yuan Xudong. After walking for a while, before Gao Hui could breathe a sigh of relief, Yuan Xudong's voice suddenly rang out behind her:
"Hui Er, is your nanny okay?"
“Ah~~”
Gao Hui and Chun Tao were startled when they suddenly heard Yuan Xudong's voice. Gao Hui turned around and looked at him with fear on her face.
"You, what do you want to do? I'm warning you, it's daytime now, I, I'm calling for help, right?"
"Not during the day, so you mean it's okay at night, right?"
Looking at the panicked Gao Hui, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but roll his eyes and said in a faint voice:
"How about we find a place to have a good talk about your nanny and Zhao Pan'er?"
"No, I have nothing to discuss with you!"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Gao Hui pulled Chuntao and was about to leave Guihua Lane. Yuan Xudong smiled, took out a letter of commitment from his pocket and said calmly:
"Hui'er, this is the confession written by your wet nurse Jiang. It's about hiring someone to frame someone. I'll send it to the government later, okay?"
"you……"
Gao Hui turned to look at Yuan Xudong. She had already learned from Chuntao what her wet nurse had done. If Yuan Xudong really went to the government to sue her wet nurse, then her wet nurse would be finished. She glanced at the written agreement Yuan Xudong was holding, and Gao Hui's eyes rolled around as she said:
"I don't believe you, show it to me!"
"OK!"
Yuan Xudong naturally knew what Gao Hui was up to. She just wanted to destroy the letter of pledge. However, he had his own way to deal with Gao Hui. He handed the letter of pledge to Gao Hui and said with a smile:
"Hui Er, if you tear up this letter of pledge or don't return it to me, I will go to your house to pay the betrothal gift and marry you!"
"Don't worry, I will return it to you!"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Gao Hui took the letter and read it hastily. While Yuan Xudong was not paying attention, she quickly handed the letter to Chuntao. Although her mother was at fault, Chuntao couldn't just watch her die. So she took the letter and tore it to pieces without thinking. Gao Hui looked at Yuan Xudong proudly and said:
"This was torn by Chuntao, not by me!"
"Yeah?"
Looking at Gao Hui who seemed quite proud, Yuan Xudong said with a smile:
"With our status, if we want to punish a servant, does that piece of paper matter? Besides, in addition to Jiang's letter of commitment, I also have several other people's letters, as well as witnesses and physical evidence!"
"you……"
Looking at the angry Gao Hui, Yuan Xudong said directly:
"Okay, let's find a place to talk it out. You can refuse if you want!"
"good!"
After taking a deep look at Yuan Xudong, Gao Hui took Chuntao and walked out of Guihua Lane. Yuan Xudong followed closely with a smile on his face.
The place for the negotiation was chosen to be in Gao Hui's carriage. The carriage rumbled forward, Gao Hui and Chuntao sat on one side, and Yuan Xudong sat on the other side.
Looking at Gao Hui and Chun Tao who were very wary of him, Yuan Xudong glanced at Gao Hui's clothes and said with a smile:
"Hui Er, your clothes are quite special. They shouldn't be yours, right?"
"What does it have to do with you? Also, don't call me Hui'er, we're not that familiar with each other yet!"
"Okay, then I'll call you Hui Niang!"
"you……"
Looking at Gao Hui who thought his eyebrows were not eyebrows and eyes were not eyes, Yuan Xudong said nonchalantly:
"Hui Niang, forget about your wet nurse. Anyway, you will be mine sooner or later. How do you think?"
"Who is yours? You..."
Looking at the angry Gao Hui, Yuan Xudong directly took out a pink bellyband embroidered with peach blossoms from his arms and said:
"This is the token of our love. Do you still want to cheat?"
Gao Hui's voice stopped abruptly. When she saw the bellyband, her face suddenly turned red. She stood up and rushed towards Yuan Xudong, trying to snatch the bellyband back.
"Give it back to me quickly, you bad guy, you bad guy!"
"If you don't want to give it to me, then I won't give it to you. I saved you from Ouyang Xu, so can't you give me your body in return?"
"Asshole, give it back to me!"
"If you don't want to return it, then I won't return it!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong and Gao Hui suddenly wrestling with each other, Chuntao was dumbfounded. They were clearly fighting, but why did she feel goose bumps all over her body?
At this time, Yuan Xudong was being teased by Gao Hui's fancy moves, and he also took the opportunity to take advantage of Gao Hui, which made him feel extremely comfortable.
After playing around for a while, Yuan Xudong suddenly reached out and hugged Gao Hui, then looked at Chuntao and said calmly:
"Little girl, I have something to discuss with your young lady, please stay outside for a while!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Hui looked at Chuntao and instructed:
"Don't go, Chuntao, don't listen to him, come here and help me hold him down!"
Compared to Yuan Xudong, Chuntao naturally listens to Gao Hui more. However, even if the two of them were tied together, they were no match for Yuan Xudong. In the end, they were all subdued by Yuan Xudong. What happened next is self-evident. The loser always pays a price.
The carriage was driving on the street, and Gao Hui was begging for mercy weakly, saying that she was not feeling well, etc., so Yuan Xudong stopped briefly and let her go.
After the carriage returned to Gao's Mansion, it did not go through the front door, but the back door. It turned out that Gao Hui and Chuntao had sneaked out to find Zhao Pan'er. Seeing them like this, Yuan Xudong suddenly had an idea.
A few days later, when Gao Hui recovered, on a dark and windy night, Yuan Xudong sneaked in through the back door that was left for him by the maid Chuntao.
Yuan Xudong had been craving for Gao Hui for a long time. On this dark and windy night, he finally got what he wanted and was very satisfied.
The next morning, in the backyard of Gao’s mansion.
In Gao Hui's boudoir, Yuan Xudong hugged Gao Hui, who was limp all over, and lay on the bed, stroking her smooth, satin-like skin and smiling with satisfaction:
"Hui Niang, you are so beautiful!"
Gao Hui raised her eyes and glanced at Yuan Xudong, and said with a complicated expression:
"Fan Lang, will you really marry me?"
"certainly!"
