At night, the cool breeze blew up the bluestone trail, and the shadows swayed on both sides of the trail, emitting strands of cool breeze.

Gu Qingzhou returned to his yard.

As soon as he took off the slightly squeezed high heels and put on sandals, the maid came over and invited Gu Qingzhou.

"The madam said that I cooked jelly for a late night snack," the maid said.

Gu Qingzhou knew that he had something to talk about, and said with a smile, "Here comes."

She went to Mrs. Hirano's side.

Mrs. Hirano changed into a dark purple silk nightgown, which outlined her graceful figure. She is getting older, but her skin is not slack at all, so you can see how much effort has been spent on maintenance!

The scalded blue silk was slightly curved, hanging down beside her white cheeks.

As soon as he lifted his wrist, it was like a piece of frosted jade, dazzlingly white under the lamp, but it lost a little luster.

Old age.

"Sit down." She smiled and said to Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou smiled back and sat next to her.

"The general hasn't come back so late?" Gu Qingzhou asked.

"There is an entertainment tonight, and I need to get the second half of the night." Mrs. Hirano said with a smile.

Gu Qingzhou said, "Madam, you are very generous."

Mrs. Hirano laughed: "Silly child, it's not that kind of entertainment. Your stepfather still knows these things clearly."

Gu Qingzhou snorted.

The servant brought jelly up.

In addition to jelly, there are other foods to relieve the heat, Gu Qingzhou tasted a few mouthfuls one by one.

Mrs. Hirano's movements are graceful, and every movement has endless charm.

While eating, she chatted with Gu Qingzhou.

"Changting told me everything, I'm very glad that you are willing to help." Mrs. Hirano said.

Gu Qingzhou pursed his lips and smiled.

Mrs. Hirano continued: "The Jin family is indeed our ally. You can guess that correctly. Therefore, E-Niang wants to tell you not to conflict with Miss Jin."

Gu Qingzhou's eyes flickered slightly, with a bit of ridicule: "Then, does Governor Ye know about this?"

"Of course he doesn't know. Not only he doesn't know, but outsiders don't know." Mrs. Hirano smiled.

"You want to play the Taiyuan family's clan with applause?" Gu Qingzhou asked her.

Mrs. Hirano put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said with a straight face: "A Qiang, your insight makes me chill, you don't have the vision to do great things."

"Then ask the lady to teach me."

"Balance." Mrs. Hirano said only two words, "E-niang was taught the art of the emperor by her grandfather since she was a child. The achievements of the emperor came from the assistance of the courtiers.

So how to control is one of the emperor's lessons, and the most important thing is balance. Check and balance the forces of all parties, and the world will be cleared. "

Gu Qingzhou lowered her lower eyelashes, covering the emotions in her eyes, and remained calm.

She picked up the water and took a sip.

After drinking, he raised his eyes, his eyes were already calm and without any emotion.

"Ma'am, do you think Governor Ye can allow you to be so duplicitous?" Gu Qingzhou's expression was a little solemn.

"That's what I want to tell you. I wanted to tell you for a long time, but I was worried that you were getting too close to the Ye family." Mrs. Hirano said.

She also picked up the water and took two sips, even drinking water with great manners.

"A Qiang, you must remember the great cause, and must not indulge in the love of children. Sister Jin Lan is the most unreliable. You and Ye Wu must be more careful." Mrs. Hirano said.

Gu Qingzhou said nothing, bit the rim of the water cup lightly, and blinked his eyes.

She is pure.

However, Mrs. Hirano knew that hidden beneath these clear and flawless eyes was a delicate, calculating heart.

"A Qiang, E-Niang has experienced more things than you. It's not intentional to provoke, it's just a statement from the bottom of my heart." Mrs. Hirano said.

Gu Qingzhou smiled and said, "I understand the importance."

Mrs. Hirano showed some relief.

Talking with smart people, explaining the powerful, and reaching the point, is the most refreshing, and there is no need for painstaking efforts at all.

The temperature has dropped slightly tonight, the wind is cool, and Mrs. Hirano is in a good mood.

She also asked about Gu Qingzhou's Japanese learning progress.

Gu Qingzhou said: "Changting said it's not bad..."

"That's good." Mrs. Hirano was very relieved, and then she had a few conversations with Gu Qingzhou in Japanese.

Gu Qingzhou is not bad, but in Mrs. Hirano's view, she overestimated herself.

Her Japanese is really bad.

"It seems that this child does not have the talent for learning languages." Mrs. Hirano thought to herself.

It was getting late, Gu Qingzhou went back to the room to rest.

The next day, the sky was overcast, it was about to rain, but the temperature was sultry.

Gu Qingzhou rests today.

She wanted to read a book for a while, but she was sweating profusely.

When he was upset, Cheng Yu called Gu Qingzhou.

"Come here and take a look at my illness." Cheng Yu said.

Gu Qingzhou said yes.

She sent someone to tell Mrs. Hirano, and then went out on her own.

When he arrived at the apartment rented by Si Xingpei, Gu Qingzhou also smelled the hot breath.

"...The fever has subsided, but there are still acne scars. I will give you some medicine, and you will be completely invisible in half a month." Gu Qingzhou said.

Cheng Yu suffered a serious crime, but fortunately, she still knew what was wrong and knew that she was saving her life.

"Thank you." She said to Gu Qingzhou.

She asked Gu Qingzhou again, "Can I go out now?"

When she was sick, Gu Qingzhou told her not to see the wind. She had been bored in the house for several days, and everyone was going to be rancid.

"You can go out." Gu Qingzhou said.

She brought Cheng Yu the medicine she had prepared.

Without seeing Si Xingpei, she asked casually, "Where are the others?"

"He left early and returned late, who knows who he hooked up with again?" Cheng Yu muttered.

Gu Qingzhou poked her between the eyebrows: "Ingratitude, who is he looking for when he runs around? You have such a temper, no matter how good you are, you are disheartened when you hear these words."

Si Xingpei just came back.

He went upstairs lightly and heard Gu Qingzhou's remarks.

He gently hugged her from behind.

"Sure enough, my wife will be considerate of me." He kissed Gu Qingzhou's earlobe.

Cheng Yu hurriedly opened his eyes and said displeasedly, "I'm about to go blind."

Si Xingpei pulled Gu Qingzhou up.

When the two of them got downstairs, Si Xingpei sat down with her and said to her, "Have dinner first, I'll take you out later."

"Where to go?" Gu Qingzhou asked.

Si Xingpei blinked his eyes with a sinister expression.

Gu Qingzhou couldn't help laughing, revealing a small set of white and neat teeth.

"Found Mrs. Cheng?" Gu Qingzhou asked.

Si Xingpei said, "I'm not sure yet. I'm going to have a look today. Would you like to join us?"

"good."

Gu Qingzhou agreed, and at the same time, he had another meal in his heart, and asked Si Xingpei: "I found them, are you going back to Pingcheng?"

Si Xingpei stretched out his hand and pinched her little face: "Don't want me to go back? Then come with me..."

"I don't have anything, so I can't leave like this." Gu Qingzhou said, "I haven't finished my work yet, and being quiet is not my style of Gu Qingzhou."

Her expression sullen.

She felt very sad at the thought of Si Xingpei leaving.

"Qingzhou, look into my eyes." He squeezed her chin and looked at her, "What did you see?"
