"Ah Huai, Ah Huai!"

Gu Mohuai came back from a trance, knocked the wooden shovel on the side of the pot with a loud sound.

There was a burnt smell in the air, he raised his voice in response, and hurriedly stir-fried it with his hands.

"What are you cooking?" Zhao Di Niang pushed the door open, glanced into the pot, "Ah - this bitter taste, hurry up, bring a ladle of water."

She took the wooden shovel, and couldn't help but push the person out, "How can you get in your mouth if it's muddy?"

Burning vegetables is not an honorable thing, Gu Mohuai couldn't help but hurriedly went to fetch water outside the courtyard.

Zhao Di Niang quickly cleaned the pot, and followed Gu Mohuai into the room.

She was holding a bamboo basket in her hand, and now she put the dishes on the table one by one, saying: "Eat it while it's hot."

After speaking, she didn't move, but sat down opposite him and looked at him with a smile.

Gu Mohuai ate two mouthfuls, seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, he stopped and looked at her with puzzled eyes.

Zhao Di Niang smiled and ordered the dishes on the table: "Eat."

"..." Gu Mohuai had no choice but to smile at her, and continued.

Although Zhao Di Niang is a married woman, it is not appropriate to be in the same room with him, so I have to send her away as soon as possible, so as not to be offended.

But at this moment, Zhao Di Niang spoke.

"Ah Huai," she sat forward half an inch, and said in a harmonious voice, "It's freezing day by day, you live alone, so don't make a fire, go to Brother Yang's house to eat later."

"Impossible." Gu Mohuai hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, waved his hand and said: "I eat enough for one person, and the whole family is not hungry. It's very easy, so I don't want to bother you."

"What are you talking about!" Zhao Di Niang said: "Neighbors usually help three points, not to mention that you are single and weak, how can you take care of yourself? In the past, it was fine to have someone to help you, but now Mr. Lu is not here, you..."

When these three words were spoken, the smile on Gu Mohuai's face visibly froze.

Zhao Di Niang knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, so she closed her voice and remained silent for a while, but she couldn't hold back, "Ah...Ah Huai."

She looked at the pale and thin young man in front of her, and tried softly: "It's been a long time since I saw Mr. Lu, do you know... when will he come back?"

Gu Mohuai lowered his eyes and remained silent, his eyes darkened slightly.

"... Cough, maybe there is something urgent to do, and I will come back after finishing it." Zhao Di Niang said with a smile: "He has a deep affection for you, how can he be willing to go for so long."

She was speaking unintentionally, but if there was substance, it weighed heavily on Gu Mohuai's chest.

In the middle of nowhere, I suddenly heard someone whispering in my ear, like a judgment, telling the ending between him and Lu Zhongshu:

"He's not coming back.

"So what about deep affection? You can't beat his long heart."

Zhao Di Niang didn't know what was going on, she was still looking at him over there.

He squeezed out a smile in response, and the panic in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

After taking a few hasty bites of the food, she couldn't take it anymore, Zhao Di Niang saw it, and got up in time to express her intention to go.

Gu Mohuai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, sent the person outside the door, watched her walk away, Fang looked away, and closed the courtyard door behind his back.

Before Lu Zhongshu left, the split strips were still piled up in the corner of the wall, together with the strip knife and the low stool, stained with a thin layer of dust.

He looked into the courtyard and suddenly felt deserted.

Does he still love Lu Zhongshu?

If you don't love, why do you think about it every day, almost without thinking about food and drink?

If there is still love, why was he so ruthless at that time that he treated him with evil words and cold eyes several times?

The answer was ready to come out, but Gu Mohuai suddenly choked his mind and didn't dare to think about it.

Now that he has left, the relationship between the two of them should be settled, why bother to cause trouble for yourself.

Even if all this never happened, that person never came.

He nodded, as if convincing himself.

But the uneasiness in my heart became more and more serious. In the dark, it seemed that there was something menacing, and I couldn't stop it.

☆, Yuan Lan

In the blink of an eye, it was Xiaohan, Zhaodi wrapped in a tender red skirt with peony pattern and inlaid rabbit fur, and knocked open the door of Gu Mohuai's house with steaming roasted sweet potatoes.

Xiaohanhan, frozen ice balls, especially in the mountains.

Gu Mohuai got up early and was sitting in the inner room warming up the fire. When he heard the noise, he was about to get up when he saw a little man rolling in like a dumpling. He said happily: "Brother Ah Huai! Let's go! Let's go!"

Gu Mohuai's hands and feet were cold every winter, and now he was worried that he would pass the cold to Zhaodi, so he waved to her and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Brother is back from outside!" Zhao Di blushed, "Bringing new clothes, let's have some food!"

There are two brothers and one sister in Zhaodi's family. The second elder brother went down the mountain with his relatives to do business a few years ago. He seldom returns home on weekdays. It is rare to come back once. Zhaodi is naturally very happy.

Seeing that she was speaking in a hurry, Gu Mohuai added half a bowl of warm water and handed it to her, "Speak slowly, come on, drink some water first."

Zhaodi took it obediently: "Thank you, brother Huai." She lowered her head and sipped some water, and couldn't wait to continue: "My mother made a pot of bacon! She also asked my father to kill the fish and chickens! My mother asked me to come It's Brother A Huai, it's fun when everyone eats together!"

Oudi near the sea has always been rich in aquatic products, but the quantity of poultry and livestock is low and the price is high. Yanglou Village is located in the middle of the mountain, and it is inconvenient to go down to the mountain. During the holidays, you can only open one time to eat abstinence.

Gu Mohuai hadn't had a good rest recently, and his appetite was also poor, so he waved his hand and said, "I've already eaten, you can go back and eat with your elder brother."

Zhao Di shook her head: "Impossible, A Niang said, I must ask Brother Ahuai to go there."

"I really ate it." Gu Mohuai said, "I'll go there next time."

His attitude was clear, Zhaodi saw that she couldn't speak to him, her mouth was flattened, her eyes were wide open from bottom to top, she looked pitiful, she didn't speak, she just looked at him.

This trick really worked, Gu Mohuai was defeated after a while, and said helplessly: "Fine."

Zhaodi cheered, stepped forward to hold his hand, and couldn't wait to drag him out.

"Brother Ah Huai," she looked up at Gu Mohuai, "My second brother went up the mountain this time, and he brought a sister with him, and that sister said she knows you."

"Know me?"

Gu Mohuai paused, his heart skipped a beat.

As a former servant of the palace, he has never even been out of the gate of the palace a few times. Now he is hiding in the mountains, where is the old acquaintance?

Zhaodi's house was already in sight, and the smoke was billowing from the roof, but in Gu Mohuai's eyes, it seemed a bit more ominous.

However, he never expected that the person who came was Huaping.

Huaping is the big maid brought by the West Wing when passing through the door, she has little contact with the East Wing on weekdays, so she does not know why she is here.

Seeing Gu Mohuai, Huaping's expression immediately turned cold, and he found an excuse to say goodbye to Zhaodi's family, and led him to the entrance of the village.

Gu Mohuai nearly killed her master once, how dare she speak up now?

The two arrived at the entrance of the village one after the other, and walked a few steps down the mountain, only to see a carriage parked at the corner.

With the screen facing the carriage, Fu Yifu body, said meekly: "Master."

"coming?"

As soon as the people in the car opened their mouths, they saw Gu Mohuai's eyes suddenly widen, and all the blood on his face disappeared.

The sound was like gold and stone colliding, pearls and jade colliding, sonorous and lingering, it should be very pleasant to the ear, but the opening of the mouth was tinged with a seven-point chill, making people daunting to hear it.

Gu Mohuai fought all over his body, and immediately bowed his knees to salute, and said in a hoarse voice: "Slave...please, sir."

In the middle of the movement, the man got out of the car. In the depths of winter, he was dressed in snow-white fox fur and had a long body. His eyes were like bright stars and his face was like a crown of jade. arrogant.

This person is the first wife of Lu Mengping, the eldest son of the royal family, and the son of the former prime minister of the left, Si Yuanlan.
