Chapter 90: Almost all over again

"Don't worry, I want you to do a few things for me. I have to deal with the person who set me on fire." A cold light flashed in Gu Xiaoyou's eyes.

"Who is it?" Mrs. Zhou suppressed her smile and asked seriously.

"Boss Ma."

"It's him!" Mrs. Zhou was furious: "It's too much. Xiaoyou, whatever you want me to do, just tell me."

It was the first time that Mr. Zhou was so positive, and Gu Xiaoyou felt warm.

"Thank you, Sister Zhou. I'll take a shower soon and write a few letters for me, and then..."

Gu Xiaoyou finished speaking the plan softly, and Zhou listened with bright eyes.

"Xiaoyou, you are so smart. Don't worry, I will do it well."

Gu Xiaoyou curled her lips and smiled. After watching so many business war movies, it was not easy to deal with a boss Ma.

"It's okay, let's take a shower quickly."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou sped up the movements of her hands, Gu Xiaoyou cooperated, and quickly finished the bath.

Gu Xiaoyou changed her clothes and sat down at the table with Mrs. Zhou.

She told her what she had in mind, and Zhou wrote on the rice paper.

The letter was quickly written. Zhou dried the ink on the rice paper and carefully put it into her arms.

"The letter is written. You can send it after you find out the information clearly."

Gu Xiaoyou told Zhou in detail how to act, and Zhou wrote them down one by one.

He repeated what Gu Xiaoyou taught again.

Gu Xiaoyou was very satisfied with Zhou's performance. He temporarily put aside his worries and felt much more relaxed.

"It's getting late, why don't you and Liang'er stay here?" Gu Xiaoyou suggested.

"No, Liang'er has to go to school tomorrow. It's not convenient to walk from here." Zhou declined.

Gu Xiaoyou didn't force it: "Okay, then I'll give it to you."

The two walked out of the room together. Gu Xiaoyou asked Mr. Wang who was guarding the door: "Sir Wang, do you know where Liang'er and Mu Wuchen are?"

"Looking back at the miracle doctor, the master and the young master are in the courtyard. I will lead the way for you." Mr. Wang replied politely.

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you." Gu Xiaoyou thanked him.

"Please come with me, old slave."

Lord Wang was blessed, carrying a lantern and leading the way, with Gu Xiaoyou and Mr. Zhou following behind.

Gu Xiaoyou looked around curiously. She had been sleeping and recuperating since being brought here by Mu Wuchen, and this was the first time she walked out of the room.

"Wow, this is so big, with so many rooms." Gu Xiaoyou sighed.

Zhou was no longer as comfortable as Gu Xiaoyou, and walked on the road a little cautiously, staying close to Gu Xiaoyou.

After walking for about half a cup of tea, Mr. Wang led them through a slightly long gravel road and finally arrived at a courtyard with an elegant environment.

Mr. Wang stopped and whispered: "The master and the young master are in the pavilion."

Gu Xiaoyou looked towards the pavilion in the yard. There were lamps hanging on all four sides of the pavilion, making the pavilion extremely bright.

Liang'er's voice was clear and faint, and Gu Xiaoyou could tell from the words that he was probably reciting ancient poetry.

Looking at Mu Wuchen who was listening expressionlessly, Gu Xiaoyou could rarely read a hint of absent-mindedness in his expression.

Probably like her, I memorized a lot when I was a child and didn't like listening to ancient poems and prose.

Gu Xiaoyou had some understanding of Mu Wuchen in his heart. In order to save him, he called out loudly: "Liang'er, Mu Wuchen, we are here."

When Liang'er heard Gu Xiaoyou's voice, her eyes lit up and she ran over happily.

"Aunt Gu, you've finished taking a bath."

"Yes, smell it and see if it smells good."

Gu Xiaoyou lifted up her sleeves and fanned towards Liang'er. Liang'er sniffed in cooperation: "Yes, it smells good."

"Liang'er takes a good bath and you'll be as sweet-smelling as me." Gu Xiaoyou touched Liang'er's head and said dotingly.

"Okay, I want to become like Aunt Gu." Liang'er said happily.

The enthusiasm of the freshman novel left Mu Wuchen aside.

Mu Wuchen was dissatisfied that Gu Xiaoyou ignored him again, so he coughed loudly on purpose.

Gu Xiaoyou heard the coughing sound and asked with concern: "Why are you coughing? Is it because it's cold in the yard? Do you catch a cold? Go back to your room quickly."

"Okay, let's go together." Mu Wuchen secretly raised his lips.

"I still want to see Sister Zhou and Liang'er off, so you should go back first." Gu Xiaoyou waved her hand and greeted Liang'er to leave.

The corner of Mu Wuchen's mouth froze for a moment, but fortunately it was dark and no one noticed.

"In that case, I'll give it away too."

"It's up to you." Gu Xiaoyou glanced at Mu Wuchen, why did this man have such an idea all of a sudden?

Just like that, Gu Xiaoyou took Zhou's arm and led Liang'er in front, while Mu Wuchen followed expressionlessly.

Mr. Wang held a lantern and led the way honestly.

"Sister Zhou, come to me after you have done something good." Gu Xiaoyou warned.

Zhou hesitated and said, "I don't know how to get here."

She came all the way in a carriage and had no idea that such a place existed in Qingcheng County.

Gu Xiaoyou was even less clear about it. She came here in a coma and didn't know the route.

When the two people looked at each other, Mu Wuchen said: "I arranged for Meng Yu to repair Gu Xiaoyou's house. If you want to come here, just find Meng Yu."

"Thank you, Mr. Mu." Mrs. Zhou thanked her, looked at Gu Xiaoyou and said, "I will come to you as soon as possible."

"Well, I believe you."

While talking, the group of people arrived at the door of the mansion. Meng Yu had prepared a carriage and was waiting at the door.

"I will send you here." Gu Xiaoyou took Zhou's hand and said reluctantly.

"Take good care of yourself." Mrs. Zhou patted the back of Gu Xiaoyou's hand and took Liang'er into the carriage.

"Goodbye, be careful."

Gu Xiaoyou waved to them and watched the carriage galloping in the night.

Until the figure of the carriage became smaller, Gu Xiaoyou was still unwilling to look away.

"It's late at night, let's go back to the room." Mu Wuchen said.

Gu Xiaoyou reluctantly withdrew his gaze: "Well, okay."

On the way back to the room, Gu Xiaoyou remembered what Mu Wuchen had just said, and said sincerely: "Thank you for helping me repair my room. I have caused you trouble."

"I just don't want to see you homeless." Mu Wuchen teased.

"I won't be homeless. Now that I have money, I can buy a house in Qingcheng County." Gu Xiaoyou said dissatisfied.

She subconsciously took a picture of where the money bag was on her body, but the picture came up empty, and she suddenly felt panicked.

"Oh, my wallet is gone. It won't be burned by the fire. All my banknotes are in it." Gu Xiaoyou said anxiously.

Mu Wuchen comforted him: "Don't panic, the maid has put it away."

Gu Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death. I almost started all over again and struggled for another year and a half."
