1796 Good News
Although Tan Yushu woke up, he was still very weak, with a splitting headache, and lay in bed unable to get up at all.
Seeing her sister crying bitterly now, Tan Yushu felt a little distressed, stretched out her hand to touch Gu Xiaowan's face, and said weakly, "Sister, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Gu Xiaowan nodded, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't cry, you have slept for so long, are you hungry, I asked the kitchen to make gruel for you, and now I bring it to you, okay?" good?"
Tan Yushu nodded weakly.
Gu Xiaowan did it herself, fed Tan Yushu and drank half a bowl of porridge. Seeing that Tan Yushu was in good condition, Gu Xiaowan told Tan Yushu her plan!
Gu Xiaowan opened her mouth: "You have been ill for a long time, over there, I am also worried about Ningping, so..."
Before Gu Xiaowan finished speaking, she saw Tan Yushu sitting up from the bed with an anxious expression on her face: "Sister, I'm fine, let's go find Brother Ning Ping now!"
"You look like this now, what are you going to do?" Seeing her insisting on struggling to get up, Gu Xiaowan hurriedly held her down, her words were a little excited: "The doctor said that you suffered from a bad health a few days ago, and you are very weak now, don't stop talking." You did it!"
"But... elder sister..." Seeing that Gu Xiaowan refused to let her go, Tan Yushu sobbed and cried, "I'm worried about Brother Ning Ping! I want to know how he is doing now! Huh..."
Seeing Tan Yushu like that, Gu Xiaowan's tears also fell down: "Don't worry, I have asked Uncle Ding and Ah Mo to go to the border to see what's going on first! Take care of yourself first, get well, Ning Ping knows , he won't worry either!"
"What? Uncle Ding and Ah Mo have already left?"
"Well, you've been in a coma for several days. If they hurry up, they should be there in three days! They should be back in about ten days!" Gu Xiaowan calculated.
If they were faster, it might not even take ten days.
"It just so happens that you are here to rest and recuperate well during these days, let's see what news they bring back!" Gu Xiaowan told Tan Yushu to lie back and said, "Don't think about anything, get better quickly, your grandpa will be worried You, I will worry about you, and Ning Ping will worry about you even more! There are people who worry about you around you, so don't be willful anymore, okay?"
Tan Yushu thought that this time because of his willfulness, he ran out secretly without telling anyone. Grandpa must be anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and nodded obediently: "Okay, sister, I will take good care of myself." , just wait for the news here!"
"Okay, be obedient!" Seeing that Tan Yushu was obedient, Gu Xiaowan felt relieved. We will take good care of our bodies during this period. Kou Dan and Ah Zuo will take turns taking care of you in your room. If you have something to do, just call they! I live next door! "
Tan Yushu nodded obediently.
Gu Xiaowan just walked out the door, and when she was about to go back to her room, she inadvertently glanced at the end of the corridor, and saw two people standing at the end of the corridor, with their arms crossed, looking around vigilantly.
Looking at that mysterious and vigilant appearance, it doesn't look like an ordinary walking businessman.
She glanced at it and went back.
She also knows that in this Pingyao Town, although it is also the territory of the Qing Dynasty, it is not a safe place after all, and she should be careful in everything.
The next day, after she had breakfast with her in Tan Yu's study, when she went out, she saw a guy cleaning at the end, entering and leaving the guest room that Zhao Sheng and the others stayed in yesterday, and quickly closed the door walk towards her.
Gu Xiaowan was a little puzzled: "Excuse me, brother, have the guests inside already left?"
When the guy saw someone asking, he quickly nodded and said yes: "Yes, I'm leaving, but it makes me feel strange!"
"Strange?" Gu Xiaowan frowned: "What's so strange?"
"We don't know when this man left!" The man replied, "There are still several taels of silver in our inn. They didn't want it, so they left!"
"Then how did you know they left, maybe they got up early and went out!" Gu Xiaowan asked casually.
"Impossible!" The guy said with determination on his face: "The bedding in their room is all neat and tidy, exactly the same as when no one slept yesterday! Also, the things in their room, as well as the horses in the backyard, are all neat and tidy. Take away! This is not what is gone!"
Hearing this guy's explanation, Gu Xiaowan also nodded secretly.
I checked into the inn, but couldn't stand it, and left secretly in the middle of the night, why?
The guy went downstairs and muttered as he walked: "There are so many people, why didn't there even be a sound? Why did I sleep so dead that I didn't even know when people left. What if there are thieves doing bad things here?" !"
Gu Xiaowan frowned secretly, and breathed a sigh of relief.
She recognized Zhao Sheng, but Zhao Sheng did not recognize her.
In the past six or seven years, except for the occasional wind and frost, Zhao Sheng couldn't see other changes, so she could recognize it at a glance.
As for Gu Xiaowan, six or seven years ago, she was just a child. In six or seven years, her body, her appearance and demeanor have all undergone earth-shaking changes. It is human nature for Zhao Sheng not to recognize herself.
Still, it’s good to not recognize it!
This Zhao Sheng, with the appearance of a gang of sneaky people, must not be an ordinary businessman, even the identity of the butler in Liujia Town six or seven years ago was also disguised!
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaowan was so shocked that she broke out in a cold sweat, secretly afraid in her heart.
Gu Xiaowan didn't think too much about Zhao Sheng's matter, anyway,
People are gone.
She settled down to take care of Tan Yushu and take care of her body.
During these days of traveling, she also knew that her body was lacking a lot, so she asked Chen Meng to go to the market to buy fresh ingredients every day, and paid for the chef of the inn to make food!
After resting for six or seven days in a row, everyone's complexion gradually improved under the recuperation.
This day, Gu Xiaowan was walking with Tan Yushu in the backyard of the inn, when she heard Chen Meng's voice, she was very excited: "You two girls, Lao Ding and the others are back!"
came back?
When Gu Xiaowan and Tan Yushu heard this, they turned their heads excitedly, and saw Ding Lun and Ah Mo rushing forward, accompanied by a thin middle-aged man.
Gu Xiaowan took a closer look, and it was Uncle He, the postman who delivered the letter at home: "Uncle He, why are you here?"
Things and letters sent to Gu Ningping, I haven't seen Uncle He send a reply for a long time, how can I see him here?
"Jun...!" Uncle He hurriedly knelt down to salute, but Ah Mo who was beside him hurriedly pulled him up and shook his head.
The uncle looked at Ah Mo's eyes, and then he understood, and hurriedly changed his words: "Girl, I have been in the barracks all these days, the young master is indeed injured!"
"Is the injury serious?"
When Gu Xiaowan and Tan Yushu heard this, their eyes widened in shock.
"Girl, don't worry!" Ding Lun saw Gu Xiaowan and Tan Yushu's astonished expressions, and hurriedly said: "Young master's injuries are no longer a problem, and now he is alive and kicking, very good! He is so strong that he can kill a cow!"
"Yes, yes, after the young one delivered the things and the letter, he was going back to the capital to deliver the letter, but the people around the young master told me to wait until the young master woke up and left, and then waited for the young master to wake up. Well, the little boy said he was leaving when he recovered! He said yes, he was afraid that the little one would slip up, and if the news of his injury was leaked, it would make the girl sad, so the little one stayed in the barracks for so long A long time!"
Uncle He also hurriedly explained.
Seeing that Gu Xiaowan still had a look of disbelief, Ah Mo who was on the side also said: "Girl, everything is fine, young master, and he even asked his subordinates to bring a letter, please have a look!"
After finishing speaking, he took out two letters from his bosom, handed one to Gu Xiaowan, and the other to Tan Yushu who was staring eagerly: "This letter is from a girl..."
Uncle He also took out a letter from his arms, and said: "This letter was written by the young master before. When the young master wakes up and recovers from his injuries, he will write letters whenever he has time!"
Gu Xiaowan took it, a thick pile of letters, I don't know how much Gu Ningping wrote!
"This kid, why are you writing so much? You don't know how to rest and take care of your body!" Gu Xiaowan scolded angrily, but although she was angry, her words were full of tenderness.
Seeing Tan Yushu on the side, tears fell involuntarily: "Sister..."
Seeing that Gu Xiaowan and Tan Yushu were both crying, Ding Lun said in a serious manner: "Girl, the young master knows that you are sick, and has always wanted to see you. It's just that the military order is like a mountain. He can't enter and leave the military camp at will. This is a military regulation!"
When Tan Yushu heard this, he cried even harder!
"I don't want him to come to see me. I'm fine. As long as he's fine, I'm relieved!"
Tan Yushu burst into tears, Gu Xiaowan hugged her into her arms, and comforted her: "Don't cry, don't cry! Ning Ping is fine, it's fine, he's fine, you should be fine too! Let's go back to the room to read the letter now, okay?" good?"
Tan Yushu agreed with sobs, and the two went back to the room to read the letter.
