Chapter 298
298 I’ll give you two gifts
look at this. The roof of the car is a little slanted. Hold on to my clothes. Don’t fall. Lu Zheng squatted down and instructed.
The walls of the county government office were a little high, so they couldn’t see inside even from the top of the carriage.
Gu Xin easily got down from Lu Zheng’s neck and stood on her feet. Her movements were very familiar, as if she had done this many times.
As for Gu si, she was a little unfamiliar with it. It was only with Gu Xin’s help that she was able to stand up steadily.
“Sister Huihui, there shouldn’t be a problem jumping down while carrying sisi, right?” Lu Zheng asked.
“No problem. You be careful too.” Gu Hui nodded. The height of the carriage was nothing. In the past, she had jumped down from a tree with Gu si on her back, and it was even higher than the height of the carriage.
The two of them jumped down easily and quickly got into the car.
Lu Zheng left on his horse.
After they left, a bailiff ran over, ” “There was obviously someone on the wall just now. Did I see wrong?”
“You’ve been drinking too much recently! I already said I don’t have any! And you said there were heads on the wall. Seriously, it’s so late at night, aren’t you afraid of scaring people?”
……
That night, all the doctors in the county had been invited to the county government office. Unfortunately, none of them could explain Cheng Rui’s symptoms.
Finally, the old mother of a bailiff, who was said to be a shaman, brought tools to the county office to perform a ritual.
Lu Zheng drove the car out of the city and slowed down.
“Brother Yuanyuan, drink some water.” Gu Xin handed a bamboo tube out from the carriage.
“Thank you, Xinxin.” Lu Zheng took it and pulled the rope with one hand. He picked up the bamboo tube with the other and drank water.
Oh, it was indeed the water from Xinxin. It was so sweet.
This bamboo tube was taken from grandma Xiao’s courtyard in the city. Gu Xin had only thrown one Jade bead into her well today and one into Grandpa Gu’s medicine, so now she was putting one bead into each of their bamboo tubes.
Wasn’t this sweet?
Gu Hui lifted the curtain of the carriage and said,”Yuan, the county office won’t be able to find grandma Xiao’s room, right?” I think I just saw a bailiff head towards the wall we were standing on. ”
“No, sister Huihui. Before we dropped Cheng Rui off, we went around the city a few times and changed to a different carriage, so we can’t find him. Moreover, the Cheng family was worried about Cheng Rui’s condition. By the time Cheng Rui’s symptoms returned to normal, it would be the next day. I’ve already arranged for people to handle the rest of the matters.” Lu Yang said.
“That’s good, as long as it doesn’t involve you and grandma Xiao! Thank you so much for today, Yuan. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have known that Cheng Rui had such dark thoughts.” Gu Hui thanked him sincerely.
“Brother Yuanyuan, I’ll give you two gifts on your birthday. One to wish you a Happy Birthday and the other to thank you for today, okay?” Gu Xin said.
“Alright!” Lu Zheng would not decline!
“Brother Yuan, you’re amazing! To be able to carry such a huge person out from such a high wall.” Gu si said.
“You guys can do it too. You and Xinxin are still young, so it’s not too late for you to learn martial arts. Sisi, you can also practice martial arts with Xinxin and the others every morning.” Lu Yang said.
Lu Zheng felt that Gu Si was not bad. In his previous life, Gu Xin had said that her grandparents and cousins in the first household were all good to her.
He hoped that the people who would treat Gu Xin well in this life would be by her side. So, he also hoped that Gu Hui and Gu si would have a happy ending, at least better than their previous lives.
