Chapter 31 The girl shows loyalty late at night(1/2)

Wu Xinan looked at Wu Xianrong entering the gate of Sansiyuan, then he turned to the backyard with confidence. When he arrived at his own yard, he didn't knock on the door. He looked for the corner and took two steps back and rushed forward. With the strong strength on his legs, he kicked up on the wall. He held the wall with both hands and turned over, hung his hands on the wall, his feet tightly attached to the wall, and his body slowly slid down.

"Wang..."

Ah Huang, who was originally guarding the gate of the yard, rushed up and screamed, then found that it was his master. He immediately stopped and shook his head and tail to come up with intimacy. Wu Xinan jumped down, hugged its belly with one hand and covered its mouth with the other. Ah Huang twisted his body, kicked his four claws and slapped her palms with his tongue.

"Shhh...Ah Huang whispered softly!"

She hugged the dog and walked towards the small building with a gentle hands. When she arrived at the stairs, she put down Ah Huang and took off her shoes, and walked up gently. As soon as she pushed open the door, she saw that the lampshade of the oil lamp on the table in the room was removed. The lights swelled when the wind blew, and the room was immediately bright.

"Miss!"

Wu Xinan was startled. When he looked carefully, Du Juan, with disheveled hair, was sitting at the table, looking at her with a worried look on her face.

"Miss, you're back!"

Wu Xinan patted her chest and felt calm.

"Huh... I was shocked, why did you... wake up?"

The cuckoo responded,

"I got up at night and saw Ah Huang lying in front of the yard, so I came back to see you..."

Since the first day of arrival in this mansion, this puppy has slept in the same room with the eldest lady and never left the house all night. Why did he lie down in front of the yard tonight?

Du Juan was puzzled, and went upstairs into the lady's boudoir, lifted the tent and saw that there were only two pillows on the bed. Du Juan was shocked when she saw this. She was calm and did not disturb others. She searched upstairs and downstairs, and then led Ah Huang to the garden outside to look at it, but there was no one around.

In desperation, Du Juan turned back to Chunhuiyuan and sat in the lady's boudoir to think carefully.

"If the evil man comes in and captures the eldest lady out, he will not say that he will be next to him. Even if he is Ah Huang, he will definitely bark loudly. The evil man will think that he will put the pillow in his personal form to deceive others... It seems that he will not be the evil man who has been admitted to the hospital..."

Then only if the eldest lady ran away quietly, Ah Huang would wait in front of the door for the master to come back. What would the eldest lady run outside in the middle of the night?

Du Juan was shocked, suspicious, afraid and afraid.

Could it be that... the young lady felt that she had been treated harshly in this mansion and ran away secretly?

After thinking about it, he shook his head,

"Where can the eldest lady go alone?"

The eldest lady didn't get close to them, but she was the closest thing to Guan's mother. Even if she wanted to leave, she had to take Guan's mother with her. But Guan's mother is now in the house next to her. The snoring sounded throughout the building, and Guan's mother is still there!

Then... the young lady is going out to play by herself?

Du Juan knew that the young master had this problem. When he was not sleeping, he liked to let people walk around in the yard with his arms when he was young. Later, he became older and could run or jump. So he liked to play in the yard after dark. When he was sleepy, he slapped his back on the servant and asked him to carry him back to the house. Does the young lady have this problem?

Du Juan sat there thinking randomly, and made up her mind to stay in the room until dawn. If the eldest lady didn't come back, she had no choice but to report to the old lady.

Sitting quietly at the table like this, dozing with my chin on my hands, I could hardly bear it and fell asleep. But when I heard Ah Huang scream outside, she woke up immediately, and soon there was movement on the stairs.

Du Juan heard the sound and hurriedly took out the hood on the oil lamp. The bright lights were illuminating Wu Xin'an tiptoed in from outside.

"Miss, where have you been? Why don't we be with you when you go out?"

Wu Xinan smiled and put down the embroidered shoes in his hand, and said to Du Juan,

"I...I couldn't sleep at night, so I walked around the garden behind..."

Du Juan glanced at the embroidered shoes she placed on the ground, and the head was covered with dust. She walked closer again. A strange smell on Wu Xin'an made her nose twitch, but she looked at Wu Xin'an quietly.

"Have the young lady gone to the back garden? Now the corner of the wall seems to be blooming. I smell the young lady's body with osmanthus smelling it!"

"Is that true?"

Wu Xinan raised his hand and sniffed the cuffs. Where did the smell of osmanthus come from? It was clearly the smell of stinky sweat stained in the gambling house. He immediately looked at Du Juan deeply, and nodded without changing his face.

"It really smells of osmanthus!"

Du Juan's expression remained unchanged and said with a smile,

"The eight laurel in the back garden of the eldest lady died last year, and I'm afraid it won't bloom this year!"

Wu Xinan laughed at him,

"You know, why bother me to do something wrong?"

Du Juan sighed,

"Miss, I am a servant who should not ask about my master's affairs. I have been making trouble with Japanese pirates recently. There is no peace in Hangzhou. Don't go out at night!"

Wu Xinan replied with a smile,

"Don't worry! I know it in my heart!"

As he said that, he yawned.

"I want to sleep...I want to sleep... I bring me hot water!"

Seeing that she didn't want to say it in depth, Du Juan had to give up helplessly.

"Then I will wait for you to sleep!"

After saying that, he went downstairs to get a copper pot with warm water from the stove, picked up the water and poured it into a copper basin, took a handkerchief to wash Wu Xin'an's face and hands, and poured water to wash his feet.

"Miss, go to bed quickly, it's getting late!"

Wu Xinan took off her clothes and changed into pajamas. When Du Juan loosened her hair and went to bed, Du Juan put the coarse cloth clothes in her arms, bent down to take the lampshade on the table, and covered the oil lampshade. The light dimmed. Wu Xinan rolled around on the bed and whispered,

"Dujuan, you have washed this outfit for me, and put it in the cabinet... I will use it in the future!"

Du Juan suddenly turned around and said in surprise when she heard this.

"Miss, are you going out?"

Wu Xinan turned over and lay on the pillow and smiled at her.

"Even if Du Juan knows, I won't hide it from you. I'm afraid that your lady, I will run out all the time..."

After pausing, he squinted his eyes and looked at the expression of the cuckoo.

"If you want to tell your wife or the old lady, just go!"

Du Juan was stunned when she heard this, and asked after pondering for a while,

"Miss, can you tell me what to do when I go out?"

Wu Xinan yawned and rubbed his face against the pillow.

"Go out to earn money... Grandma cut off our Yueyin. I didn't want to bow my head to beg for mercy to her, so I could only find a way to earn money..."

Du Juan was silent for a while and said,

"Has the young lady found a way?"

Wu Xinan shook her head,

"This is the first time I'm going out today. It's not that fast for a while, but... don't worry, I can support you!"

Du Juan whispered,

"It was the servants who dragged the young lady down!"

Wu Xin rested on the pillow and laughed,

"Why are you dragging me down? I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, my temperament... I've entered this family, and it's just a matter of time before I've been dragging you down and causing you to suffer with me!"

After thinking about it, I opened my eyes and looked at Du Juan.

"Or... I'll think of a way to return you and Zhiniao to my mother's place. My life will be difficult in the future!"

Du Juan heard this but came up a few steps and knelt on the couch in front of the bed.

"Miss, I will be yours for the rest of my life. No matter how difficult the days are, we can always pass by it. Please don't return us to Qiuluyuan!"

Wu Xinan looked at Du Juan carefully. Seeing that her eyes were clear and her expression was very sincere, she looked like she was not fake. She thought for a while and said,

"Even if you don't want to leave, I won't force you to leave. Don't worry... I will have a way to support you!"

Du Juan quickly took a step back and kowtowed to Wu Xin'an.

"Miss, I know that I came from Qiuluyuan. My wife is always a little wary of us. This is no wonder you, but you know the power of the horse, and it will be seen over time. As long as you keep me by your side, you will know my loyalty one day!"

Wu Xinan looked at her silently for a while after hearing this, nodded,

"All right!"

After that, he was speechless all night. When Wu Xin'an went to Dongyunyuan the next day, Wu Xianrong saw that Wu Xin'an was very kind, and came up and took her hand.

"Big sister, you are here, I'll wait for you!"

Wu Xinan smiled, but Xiao Cheng and his two daughters were very surprised. Wu Yuan Zhen said,

"Brother Rong, when will you be so happy with her?"

Wu Xianrong ignored her, just took Wu Xin'an's hand, sat down tightly, and shouted at Fu,

"Grandmother, let's start dinner quickly, my grandson is almost starving to death!"

Seeing this, Fu's heart was secretly angry, turned his head and glared at Xiao Cheng, and said in his heart,

"It's enough to have a wild girl in this family, but why did he even get a small one? Cheng is becoming more and more incompetent now, and his son can't even control him!"

Xiao Cheng was so angry that his mother-in-law's eyes were staring at her.
