Chapter 643 Letter from Hometown
In the next few days, Mrs. Qing did not find out Wang Kun's identity and origin so quickly, and the general's mansion was very peaceful. Gu Chunzhu has already made the lotus cake and is taking An An to eat it in the small kitchen.
"Mother, it's almost exactly like the ones made in the palace...hic...the same, but even more...more delicious." An Anzhizhi said vaguely, and five of six lotus cakes in a plate had already entered. In her mouth, her cheeks were stuffed like a little hamster that was stealing food.
"Since you said the same, it should be able to be sold in the restaurant." Gu Chunzhu took another plate of freshly baked goods from the pot and distributed it to An An's four personal maids.
The little maids all said it was delicious.
Gu Chunzhu was satisfied when she saw that they were eating happily. She also slightly improved the lotus cake and added a little mint, which made it more refreshing and suitable for eating in summer.
At this time, Mama Liu hurried in from the outside, and Aunt Miao was also in the house today. Seeing Mama Liu in a hurry, she couldn't help teasing her, "You old man, you know that Madam made delicious food and ran away. A bit faster."
"Ah, Madam made the dessert in the palace and came out. That old slave is really lucky." Liu's mother rubbed her hands together and opened her mouth slightly, looking at the delicate and lovely lotus cakes.
When she suddenly came back to her senses, she told Gu Chunzhu about the serious business, "Madam, Master Guan Liu is waiting outside. It looks like there is an urgent matter. Butler Wang asked me to pass on you."
Gu Chunzhu reacted for a while before thinking about it, this Guan Liuye is talking about Xiao Liu, his real name is Guan Liugou, so this Liu mother called Liu Ye.
Thinking that Wang Kun didn't put Xiao Liu in, he should have taken into account that the general was not in the mansion, and she was a female family.
"I'll go right now." Gu Chunzhu took a step and was about to leave, but a force pulled his sleeves.
An An was holding a porcelain bowl and put the cold water in it into her stomach "gudonggudong". When the lotus cake was in her mouth, she swallowed it smoothly. She also hurriedly said, "Mother, I want to join you. Go and have a look, maybe Uncle Liu has taken over all the younger brothers and sisters."
There is such a possibility, Gu Chunzhu's eyes lit up, and the mother and daughter walked towards the flower hall.
Xiao Liu didn't sit peacefully in the flower hall either, he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, looking a little annoyed, Gu Chunzhu stepped into the flower hall with half a foot and asked, "Xiao Liu, what's the matter? "
"Sister-in-law, something is important, something important." Xiao Liu turned around and didn't care about his hands behind his back, so he stood in front of Gu Chunzhu.
Gu Chunzhu made a move to stop him temporarily, and let Wang Kun go down first. Wang Kun lowered his head and had a pair of small eyes with dissatisfaction, but he had nothing to say.
"Is it about Taiping County? Did they pick it up?" Gu Chunzhu asked.
"Yeah, Uncle Xiaoliu, did you put my younger siblings, grandma and grandpa in the inn? Come and tell us the good news first." An An also spoke crisply, with joy in her voice, A pair of eyes glued to Xiao Liu's face, expecting him to answer in the affirmative.
But Xiao Liu's head slowly bit, "I haven't seen anyone yet."
As he said that, he took out an unsealed letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Chunzhu. It was sent by the fellow soldier after he went back. It didn't say anything good, and he didn't know how to talk to Gu Chunzhu. , just put the envelope in his hand.
Gu Chunzhu held the envelope and saw Xiao Liuda sitting down with his head on the side, Liu Mei frowned.
"Mother, open it up and take a look." An An wondered why Uncle Xiaoliu looked so unhappy, wondering if it was Grandma who didn't want to let her younger brother and sister come over?
Gu Chunzhu took out the letter in the envelope with his hand, opened it carefully, and looked at the letter line by line, his face turned pale as quickly as the naked eye could see.
"There is a plague in Taiping County?" Gu Chunzhu shivered a little when he said it.
"Plague, mother, wouldn't that kill a lot of people? We must go and bring our younger brothers and sisters back." An An's tone was also anxious, shaking Gu Chunzhu's hand and said.
"But the fellow who went back said that our house was empty, and the neighbors around him were either sick or dead, or they were locked out, so they couldn't find out." Gu Chunzhu tried to make his words more fluent, but his heart was already in a mess. And Su Wangqin was not at home, she was like a headless fly.
Seeing Gu Chunzhu's reaction, Xiao Liu also worriedly advised: "Sister-in-law, don't worry too much, didn't the general send someone to stop that Wei Gaowu from acting, maybe they can bring back the accurate letter at that time!"
"You asked me to wait at home, can I wait?" Gu Chunzhu's voice was already full of tears.
Before Xiaocheng disappeared, she followed her all the way to the capital, but now Yingying, Xiaoling and even the whole family are missing, she has long been anxious like ants on a hot pot.
"Sister-in-law, there's nothing you can do if you're in a hurry now, but you have to wait for the general to come back to discuss it." Xiao Liu rubbed his hands together, his forehead was sweating, and he would be more anxious than Gu Chunzhu if he compared his heart to his heart.
"Xiao Liu, I'm fine, go and find out what's going on with the plague in Taiping County?" Gu Chunzhu tried his best to calm himself down, ready to ask about the situation in his hometown first. Su Wangqin is not at home, the house is supported by her, she must not be in disorder, even she is in disorder
, the family is easy to be exploited.
Xiao Liu nodded after hearing Gu Chunzhu's words and was ready to leave. Before leaving, he instructed An An to look at her mother a little bit, and told her not to be impulsive.
Gu Chunzhu sat down on the mahogany chair, covering his face with his hands, and a choked voice came from his fingers, "Xiaoling, Yingying, it's all my fault, my mother should have brought you..."
"Mother, it's all for me and my brother. At that time, I kept my younger siblings at home so that they would not be bumpy on the road. Don't blame yourself." An An approached Gu Chunzhu and comforted Gu Chunzhu in a low voice. Look in the eyes.
Every child is a mother's heart! She said something comforting to Gu Chunzhu, "Xiao Ling and Yingying are definitely fine. The county magistrate's wife also knows about our family. Maybe our family has been settled in a place where they will not be infected with the plague!"
"Will it be?" Gu Chunzhu put his hand down and asked with red and swollen eyes.
"Yes, and there are also aunt and third uncle, as well as the big strong mother, Mr. Zhong... They will all take care of our family, and nothing will happen." An An hugged Gu Chunzhu's body and breathed a sigh of relief. Talked to her about many reliable people.
