Gu Qingzhou has not slept.

She was neither tired nor sleepy.

In this night, her heart always beat erratically, making her very uncomfortable.

This is not a hunch, but a speculation.

Gu Qingzhou thought that everything was covered, and the possibility of good things and bad things was all in her mind.

So when this happened, the bad side rushed towards her, and she couldn't get rid of it.

She couldn't sleep. When Si Xingpei was dozing off on the sofa, she still quietly looked at the courtyard not far away.

When the servant opened the door and the footsteps sounded on the path in the main courtyard, Gu Qingzhou was the first to stand up.

"Madam..." The adjutant who came back said with difficulty, "I found... in the river..."

Gu Qingzhou's legs lost strength instantly.

She felt inexplicably unable to stand.

Sister Xin didn't care about helping Gu Qingzhou, she leaned against the door first, then she didn't fall to the ground, tears rolled down, and she choked up and asked, "Then...then... "

The truth was already in front of her eyes, but Sister Xin didn't dare to lift the veil.

The adjutant licked his dry lips, each word weighed like a thousand pounds, pressing on the base of his tongue, making it difficult for him to speak: "We will have to wait for the inspection by the people from the police station to know how he died.

How long have you been dead. "

Sister Xin couldn't bear it any longer, slipped to the ground, and cried.

Si Xingpei woke up the moment the adjutant came in.

He stood behind Gu Qingzhou and put his hand on her shoulder.

Gu Qingzhou was suddenly shocked.

Only then did Si Xingpei realize that she was shaking all over, gently, restrained, and kept shaking.

"Help Sister Xin get up." Si Xingpei said to the adjutant.

The adjutant said yes.

Si Xingpei was here, Sister Xin felt that someone could take care of her wife, so she indulged her emotions and cried, "How can I explain this to the dog? Si Ya told me a few days ago, buy a piece of fabric and give it to the dog. Make a piece of clothing, and the rest of the cloth to make a pair of shoes..."

The adjutant was almost red-eyed by Mrs. Xin's words.

Gu Qingzhou's trembling body became even colder.

Si Xingpei said to the adjutant, "Let's go out first."

Gu Qingzhou sat on the sofa for a long time before realizing that Si Xingpei was hugging her tightly.

She regained her senses and patted Si Xingpei's arm, because it made her breathless.

She said, "I want to go see Si Ya."

Si Xingpei hesitated: "Really?"

"Let's take a look." Gu Qingzhou said.

Si Xingpei drove, galloped through the dark dawn, and arrived at the police station.

Gu Qingzhou saw Si Ya.

The person inspected by the police station said to Gu Qingzhou: "It was drowned, there is no other trauma."

Gu Qingzhou's voice became hoarse.

She asked, "Is it painful?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's not painful, it'll be over soon. She's gone, my wife grieves."

Gu Qingzhou nodded.

She said to the people in the laboratory: "Just check again. If it is determined to be drowned, and there is no other doubt, we are going to bury it in the ground."

"Yes."

When she came out of the police station, it was already morning, and the rising sun slowly climbed from the blue-gray sky, dyeing the sky white.

When Gu Qingzhou went down the steps, he took a step in the air.

Her emotions shifted a bit when she received the news of Si Ya's death. When she stepped into the air, her heart throbbed heavily and her body shook.

Si Xingpei supported her: "Are you okay?"

Gu Qingzhou shook his head: "I slapped my foot, I'm fine..."

"Light Boat......"

"I know what you want to say, I don't want to cry." Gu Qingzhou said, "If I wanted to cry, I would have cried long ago. What am I pretending to be in front of you?"

Si Xingpei gently brushed her back.

When getting into the car, Si Xingpei held her hand, only to realize that her hand was cold, and her palm was full of cold sweat.

Her emotions seemed to be secret and heavy, unable to vent.

It's not that she doesn't want to vent, but that it hasn't found a way to vent.

"Go home first. Si Ya won't disappear for no reason, nor will she go to the outskirts to jump into the river." Gu Qingzhou said, "Find the murderer."

After saying these words, her heart collapsed again, as if she had stepped on the air again.

Si Xingpei said: "I'm looking for it. As long as it is artificial, it will leave traces, you can rest assured."

Gu Qingzhou nodded.

When they returned home, Si Ya's brother Gouzi also went to the police station.

He fainted right then.

After the people from the police station checked, they returned Si Ya to Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou said to the dog who woke up: "When your parents come, put her in the burial. Who is the murderer, let's investigate slowly."

Gu Qingzhou finished what the dog wanted to say, so he nodded with tears in his eyes and couldn't cry.

Gu Qingzhou stroked the top of his head, his short hair poked her into a trance: "Don't worry, I will give Si Ya justice."

The dog's scalp touched Gu Qingzhou's palm, and the cold touch made him shiver slightly.

In the sadness that filled the sky, he suddenly thought: "My wife's palm is so cold, it is as cold as Si Ya's hand."

Then he burst into tears again.

The young man's back suddenly collapsed. No amount of emotion, but also all overwhelmed by sadness.

He was crying out of breath.

Gu Qingzhou looked at him again at this time and found that he was extraordinarily small.

She just remembered that the dog had just turned fifteen when he came to work beside her. But the country boy was often starving, and he looked no more than thirteen or fourteen at the time.

In the past two years, he has grown a lot, and he is already a bit of an adult's stature, but he is still an underage child.

And the four...

Gu Qingzhou watched from the side, the skin on her body tightened inch by inch, and she felt her stiffness.

At this moment, Si Ya's parents came.

They once foolishly wanted to sell this daughter to the Goddess Sect, but their love for the child would not diminish because of their ignorance.

They also cried uncontrollably.

"No, I can't pick up Si Ya." Gouzi tried his best to growl at his parents in great sadness, "When her grievance is cleared up, I'll pick her home."

Si Ya's parents are completely clueless.

This is the worst idea for the elderly, otherwise the Goddess Sect couldn't fool them into sending their daughter out.

At this moment, while they feel distressed for their daughter, they admit that they are unlucky, and it is their daughter who has fallen into the water.

They didn't dare to ask for the host's house, they just wanted to be as docile as possible and not make trouble. After the event, the host's family showed great kindness and gave some money to bury Si Ya.

Such submissiveness and care sting Gu Qingzhou's eyes.

Her heart swayed again, and there was more cold sweat on her palms.

"If you trust me, Si Ya will stay in the backyard. I will hold a funeral for her. Before the funeral is over, I will find the murderer for you and take her back home." Gu Qingzhou said.

Her voice was hoarse.

She wanted to push hard, but it didn't make her voice clearer.

And Si Ya's parents have heard it.

They cried so much that they didn't have any rules, they just nodded vaguely, not knowing whether they agreed or not.

The adjutants rectified the backyard, set up a mourning hall, and placed Si Ya in it.

Gu Qingzhou remained silent.

Si Ya has no grudge against anyone. If she really offended anyone, it would be because she and Si Xingpei, or Cheng Yu, or others, angered her.

Gu Qingzhou arranged all this in a taciturn manner, keeping everything in order.

Until Cheng Yu said a word, Gu Qingzhou almost collapsed.

Cheng Yu asked Gu Qingzhou: "How old is Si Ya?"

A word pierced through all of Gu Qingzhou's stiffness, and her tears came up without warning, blurring her vision.

From the moment of picking up Si Ya, the disconnected emotion was finally picked up.

Gu Qingzhou had a normal reaction.

How old are the four? She just turned fifteen this year.

She is tall and looks like an adult, but with light fluff on her cheeks, she is a little yellow-haired girl.

She is single-minded and honest, but she is diligent, smart, and hardworking.

Friends gather and disperse according to fate. Sometimes when they get married or go abroad, they will naturally separate, just like the changes of the seasons, normal and ordinary.

However, servants often work for a lifetime in a good master's house, unless they die of illness and death.

In this way, servants are more permanent.

Gu Qingzhou has seen the old servants around Si Xingpei. They have been loyal all their lives, and Si Xingpei also values ​​them and regards them as elders.

Siya and Gouzi are the first batch of Gu Qingzhou's cronies.

There was also an adjutant named Tang Ping before, but he was considered a member of Si Xingpei. The ones who really belong to Gu Qingzhou are probably Si Ya and Gouzi.

Gu Qingzhou suddenly burst into tears.

Cheng Yu was taken aback.

It's nothing to cry, but Gu Qingzhou has always been calm, as if an unimportant little character died, leaving her indifferent.

Until this moment, her emotions suddenly burst.

Cheng Yu quickly hugged her and comforted her in a low voice. She thought she couldn't hear the answer, but Gu Qingzhou told her in a thick nasal voice, "Just turned fifteen."

These four words are simple, but like a soldering iron, they were imprinted in Cheng Yu's heart at once.

The moment it was printed, it was hot and painful, and Cheng Yu couldn't help shivering.

Si Xingpei didn't know when he appeared, so he forcibly broke Cheng Yu's arm, because Cheng Yu was holding Gu Qingzhou, more like he wanted to strangle Gu Qingzhou and make Gu Qingzhou breathless.

After stabilizing Gu Qingzhou, Si Xingpei heard Cheng Yu say, "I'm going to cut him with a thousand cuts, I'm going to chop up his whole family to feed the dogs!"

Zhuo Xiaoyun picked her up in time.

After she left, Gu Qingzhou's tears all disappeared.

She asked Si Xingpei: "How, how did you find out?"

Si Xingpei was silent for a moment.

Gu Qingzhou raised his eyes and looked at him quietly.

Si Xingpei waited for her to concentrate before saying: "Qingzhou, you must understand that I am well-informed. Generally, there are two situations: First, the other party is very important, and I will send someone to watch him very early, even when things happen. Before it happened; second, on my own turf."

After he said that, he glanced at Gu Qingzhou.

The truth is sometimes hard to accept.

And Gu Qingzhou has always been reasonable, she nodded: "I know."

The stone that Si Xingpei pressed on his chest slowly fell to the ground.

"Si Ya is just a servant at home, she is never in my sight, and Taiyuan Mansion is not our home." Si Xingpei said.

He seems to be omnipotent in Taiyuan Mansion, but in fact, he has put those who need attention into the bag early, and their every move is all in his eyes.

It's really seamless, it needs to be in Pingcheng and Yuecheng. In Taiyuan Mansion, it's not that he doesn't want to, nor that he can't do it, but Du Jun Ye doesn't allow it.

He made small movements, all stepping on Ye Dujun's line. Once the line is crossed, it will attract backlash, Si Xingpei is very clear.

"I swept around today, but I didn't even find the last trace of Si Ya. I asked Dujun Ye to help, and there is no news from him for the time being." Si Xingpei said.

Gu Qingzhou nodded.

"I sent someone to invite Kang Nuan." Si Xingpei said again, "Isn't the last abnormality of Si Ya related to sending a watch?"

Gu Qingzhou said: "Well."

"Kang Nuan has arrived."

"Okay, I'll go see her." Gu Qingzhou said.
