Chapter 217 An Unexpected Discovery
Shen Fushan saw his son ignored him, and he jumped in anxiety: "Asshole, I'm talking to you, stop right there!"
If it were in the past, Shen Changfeng would stand there and listen to his father's scolding, but this time he didn't want to stay any longer.
It was Shen Changfeng's long-time servant who whispered: "Master, if you just run away like this, will the prince consort punish you?"
Shen Changfeng shook his head and said: "Don't worry, he won't dare."
No matter how harshly Shen Fushan scolded, he didn't dare to do it. The princess would not agree to let him beat the child.
The lights in Gu Zhao's room were on before dawn the next day.
Zhang Yunniang placed a bunch of small jars bought overnight in front of Gu Zhao.
"I'll pack your clothes and soft things for you, and you pack your things. We'll leave for Baiyun Town in a while." Zhang Yunniang said with a cold face.
Gu Zhao rubbed his eyes. He wanted to stay in bed. He was so tired that he had no rest yesterday at Doctor Yan's place. He copied a bunch of books in the morning, but only one page was approved by Doctor Yan. He had to re-copy the rest.
It was not easy to identify medicinal materials in the afternoon. If he made a mistake, Doctor Yan would punish him with a ruler.
After careful calculation, the only time he felt relaxed in the pharmacy was the half hour of feeding insects after lunch!
But no matter how unwilling he was, he could only be dragged by Zhang Yunniang to can all the insects in the room.
"Are you sure there are no insects?" Zhang Yunniang asked with a frown.
Ever since she knew that her son had the bad habit of sleeping with insects, Zhang Yunniang felt uncomfortable standing in this room, as if something was crawling on her body.
Gu Zhao nodded honestly.
Zhang Yunniang then packed up all Gu Zhao's clothes and soft things and organized them into a huge package.
"You are learning skills at your master's house, not at home. You should listen to your master in everything and be diligent. Only in this way can you be liked by others..." Zhang Yunniang muttered.
But Gu Zhao was only seven years old, and these words almost went in one ear and out the other.
At this time, he was only thinking: "Mom, has the crazy girl gotten up? Is she in the kitchen?"
He was still thinking about what Niuniu said last night to ask the crazy girl to make him a hearty breakfast.
Zhang Yunniang saw that he was still a child, and knew that all her words were in vain. She sighed and softened her heart and said, "She got up. She took your sister's words as nothing. How could she not get up?"
Gu Zhao cheered, and then rushed into the kitchen in the front yard. He saw a light there from a distance.
The steamer on the pot was opened, and white steam floated in the room.
Gu Zhao could already smell the mouth-watering food aroma.
Liu Xiaoru sat aside to watch Gu the crazy girl, afraid that she would suddenly get up.
But the crazy girl saw Gu Zhao's attitude was very friendly, and said: "Dumplings when you come in and noodles when you go out. If you want to go out, you should eat noodles as the staple food. I will make noodles now. You can eat something else first."
Liu Xiaoru was very accustomed to the messy names that Shuying said.
Gu Zhao was surprised and asked: "Why do you call me cousin?"
"Cousin is cousin." Shuying said.
Liu Xiaoru suddenly got a start and hurriedly pulled Gu Zhao and said: "A Zhao, go to the next door and wait. I will call you when it's ready."
Gu Zhao was puzzled.
Liu Xiaoru said: "Be good and listen."
Seeing Gu Zhao go to the next door, Liu Xiaoru was relieved. Fortunately, she fooled him away. Otherwise, she would hear something like Empress or Princess. If the child is not careful, it would be bad if he said it outside.
She couldn't help thinking that although the crazy girl only had Niuniu in her heart, she was too crazy and still very unstable...
"I won't betray the princess." Shuying suddenly said.
Liu Xiaoru was stunned when she heard it, but looking at the angry expression on the crazy girl's face, she couldn't help feeling guilty.
"The cousin is the nephew of the queen, he won't harm the queen, even if he knows the queen's identity, what's the big deal." Shuying said again.
The guilt in Liu Xiaoru's heart suddenly disappeared again. With this messy name and trust in a seven-year-old child, Liu Xiaoru thought Shuying should continue to stay in the backyard.
Gu Zhao waited for a while next door, and Liu Xiaoru brought a lot of steamed snacks over: "Eat slowly, it's hot."
Gu Zhao's eyes were suddenly filled with food, and he didn't remember what happened just now.
Shuying made a table full of food.
Not long after Gu Zhao started eating, other members of the Gu family also sat down beside him one after another, from the elderly Gu Laotai and Gu Laodi to the youngest Niuniu, all rubbing their eyes to eat with him.
"Delicious, this is delicious, this is delicious, every one is delicious!" Gu Zhao's chopsticks never stopped.
No one in the family snatched food from him, and he was the first to eat everything.
Gu Zhao was so happy that tears were about to fall: "Why do I have to leave home? If I stay at home, it would be so nice to eat the dishes made by the crazy girl every day... woo woo woo."
Gradually, his fake crying turned into real crying.
Niuniu hurriedly comforted him: "Third brother, Sister Shuying can cook other things. When the eldest brother announces the results, I will bring a big bag for you to eat, okay?"
Gu Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up: "My dear, you are really my good sister, I know you are the best to me!"
No matter how reluctant Gu Zhao was, this meal would also end. He held the small jar in his arms, and under the gaze of the family, he got on the carriage, looking back every few steps.
Although Zhang Yunniang was reluctant, at this moment, she was more grateful that she had finally sent this insect king away.
"Go buy some realgar powder in the morning and spray it all over Ah Zhao's room... Forget it, buy more and sprinkle it everywhere in the house." Zhang Yunniang instructed Qi Niangzi, the housekeeper.
Niuniu looked up and said, "Mom, it's okay. Third brother said that the insects in the house listen to him and won't bully the family."
Zhang Yunniang thought that this kind of words was just to coax Niuniu, and she wouldn't believe it. When she thought of the poisonous insects and scorpions her son raised, she wanted to sprinkle more realgar powder.
After Gu Zhao left, the house seemed to suddenly become quiet. No one shouted or ran around the house.
Gu Mingda originally assigned homework to Niuniu.
But Niuniu ran to discuss with him: "Daddy, can I do today's homework and tomorrow's homework together? I feel a little tired."
Gu Mingda looked at his daughter's obedient and soft appearance, and asked gently: "Is it because you worked too hard yesterday and got up too early today?"
Niuniu nodded.
Niuniu could have stayed up to see Gu Zhao out, but she insisted on seeing him off because of the good relationship between the brother and sister.
Gu Mingda touched her little head and finally agreed.
Niuniu stayed in the room all day except for eating, and slept soundly on the bed.
Zhang Yunniang was a little worried, and ran over to see her several times. Seeing that her daughter's complexion was normal and the little fish birthmark had not changed, she was relieved to confirm that the child was really just sleeping.
Niuniu made a wish for the middle-aged man yesterday. She slept all day today, but she didn't feel any discomfort, not even dizziness or headache.
The little girl was confused and thought: Wouldn't she get sick if she made a wish now?
