Chapter 140 General's Mansion 11
The fight here finally alarmed the people next door.
The eldest son of the Gu family tilted his ear and said, "Why do I seem to hear the voice of my second son?"
Song Shuyi also listened carefully and said, "I seem to have heard Le Ping's voice as well."
The two of them didn't care about anything else and quickly got up and walked towards the next room.
When he pushed open the door of the next box, he saw Jing Zhuo holding Zhou Leping standing on one side, and Gu Er standing on the other side with blood in his mouth and red eyes. After seeing his elder brother pushing the door open, he felt even more aggrieved. He pointed at Zhou Leping while crying, wanting to speak but unable to.
Gu Er's appearance frightened Song Shuyi, and Zhou Leping's face looked unhappy: "Leping, what's going on?"
Zhou Leping's chest was heaving with anger, but he clenched his teeth and said nothing. Jing Zhuo couldn't bear it and immediately showed Zhou Leping's bloody arm: "Look carefully, that's our young master's blood. He was the one who hurt him, not us!"
Gu Er was really ruthless when he bit Zhou Leping. He was seriously injured. Blood was dripping from the wound along his wrist and onto the floor very quickly. Soon the floor beneath his feet was stained with blood.
When Song Shuyi saw the wound on Zhou Leping's arm, she could no longer feel angry. She rushed over to check with a distressed look on her face. The clothes on her arm were already soaked.
"How can it be so serious? Find a doctor quickly!"
This chaos disappeared without a trace as the two sides separated.
At the Zhou family, Jing Zhuo looked at the thick bandage on Zhou Leping's wrist, and the gloom in his eyes could not be suppressed. He handed over the medicine bowl unhappily.
Zhou Leping wrinkled his nose and tried to escape: "I was just bitten, no need to take medicine, the bleeding has stopped."
Jing Zhuo grabbed his shoulders and said, "How do you know if there's poison on his teeth? Drink it up."
"Oh! It's almost healed."
"Drink quickly."
Zhou Leping had no choice but to close his eyes and swallow the bowl of medicine in one gulp.
Just as Jing Zhuo walked out with the medicine bowl, Song Shuyi came in. Zhou Leping had been waiting for her cousin for too long.
Song Shuyi placed the freshly prepared snacks on the table one by one: "Eat them, and replenish your body."
Zhou Leping was not polite and directly picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It was still delicious. But when he thought that such a powerful sister was attracted to the Gu family, he was unhappy.
"Sister, how did you and Gu Jiadalang know each other?"
Speaking of Gu Dalang, Song Shuyi's face turned slightly red. "Do you still remember that my horse got scared during the garden party? Actually, I lied that day. It was Master Gu who saved me that day. He was injured for this. But for my reputation, he waited until all of us left before he went back. How can I forget this kindness?"
Zhou Leping now understood whose clothes the other day belonged to: "Just to repay a favor?"
Song Shuyi turned away awkwardly: "Actually, there is some personal relationship. Mr. Gu is very talented and upright, and he and I can talk a lot."
Zhou Leping felt sick at the thought of becoming a relative of Gu Er: "But the Gu family has always looked down on Dad's military background and has made trouble for him in the court more than once."
This is also the reason why Zhou Leping and Gu Er have always been at odds. Zhou Leping didn't finish what she said. Her sister should understand. Can the Gu family really agree to this marriage?
Song Shuyi sighed softly: "I have already talked to my aunt about this matter a few days ago, and she supports it."
A few days ago... Zhou Leping seemed to know why Mom disliked Dad those days. It turned out that Dad's popularity hindered Sister's marriage.
Song Shuyi looked at her brother: "Now I want to hear your opinion. Let's put aside the grudges between the Gu and Zhou families. Are you satisfied with this brother-in-law?"
If we ignore the previous grudge: "Gu Jia Dalang has always had a good reputation."
After hearing her brother say this, Song Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief: "I was really afraid that you would disagree with me because of your stubborn temper."
How could Zhou Leping do that? He was still sensible. The little grudge between him and Gu Er was nothing compared to his sister's marriage.
It seems that the elder sister really likes Gu Dalang, because of the last restaurant incident, Gu Dalang specially brought his brother to apologize. Seeing the way his elder sister flirted with this man, Zhou Leping hated him to death, but he had to suppress his nausea and reluctantly agreed to go on an outing with them.
It is spring now, and there are so many people out for an outing. Many young men and women are enjoying the fields outside the city, and for a moment, people even forget the smoke of the battlefield in the distance.
At this time, Song Shuyi and Gu Jiadalang were flying a kite in the distance, and they were flying a pair of mandarin duck kites.
Zhou Leping looked at the kite flying in the sky and became angry: "Why did you give them such a kite?"
Jing Zhuo packed up the items in front of him, glanced at the kite hanging high in the sky and said, "I didn't leave it for them on purpose. They chose it themselves."
"Choosing such a pair of kites is really... ambitious." After saying that, Zhou Leping looked at Jing Zhuo: "Hey, where is the goldfish kite you made last time? My sister is in a good mood now, but I am in a bad mood. Shouldn't you take it out to comfort me?"
Jing Zhuo looked at Zhou Leping's angry face and his eyes curved with laughter: "The kite is not ready yet, it's not time to fly it yet."
"Ah, shouldn't the kite be flown now? You've been working on it for so long and it's still not done? Do you have to wait until winter?"
Jing Zhuo took out the food and said, "We won't have to wait until winter. You can release it in autumn at the latest."
Zhou Leping found it strange. For a kite to fly, one must choose an auspicious day? That's quite particular.
While they were chatting, Gu Er, who was alone, was skipping stones in the river. Suddenly, a piece of silk handkerchief floating downstream in the water fluttered and fell at his feet.
Gu Er reached out to pick it up and saw a pink handkerchief embroidered with azaleas. It was obvious that it was not a common thing. He couldn't help but feel happy. Could it be that his spring had also come?
Just as I was thinking about it, Princess Anhe came from a distance, walking hurriedly and looking a little anxious.
Gu Er hurriedly went up to pay his respects: "Princess Anhe."
The princess was holding a little white rabbit in her arms. Because of the hurried journey, her face was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and her face was red, making her look full of energy.
