Chapter 318 Death
After Su Wan saw Mrs. Cao and Cao Wanqing away, she stared at the token in her palm and sighed in her heart.
The fate of the Cao family has already been determined.
Mrs. Cao and Cao Wanqing saw clearly, and it was exactly what she wanted.
She couldn't ask for this money. She had to return it to the mother and daughter after they settled down.
"Wanwan, it's time to eat." Gu's mother came from outside, holding Gu Baozhu in her hand.
The maid came in with a food box, took out the food and put it on the table.
One dish of angel fish, one dish of oven-roasted chicken, one dish of seared walnut meat loin, and one dish of vegetarian three delicacies.
"What a sumptuous meal." Su Wan cheered up the atmosphere.
Gu Baozhu didn't say anything. She always felt that Gu Jingyun was noisy and liked to bully her. She was annoyed just by looking at him. Now that she is really gone, she seems to be missing something and can't do anything well. When she stays by her mother's side, she thinks of many things in the past, but finds that the two of them spend more time getting along, and she feels more and more disappointed.
Gu's mother couldn't muster the energy, and she was listless. She reluctantly agreed: "It looks very appetizing." Her eyes fell on the angel fish, and she picked up a bowl and scooped a bowl of fish and chicken soup for Su Wan: "This I learned it from the cook, and she said it was her unique secret recipe, and it was very complicated to make. I tried it once, but it didn’t work.”
Su Wan stared at the bright chicken soup, which contained snow-white minced fish meat. She took it with both hands, took a mouthful of the soup and tasted it. She arched her eyebrows and said, "Hmm, it's very fresh and sweet. How do you make this dish?"
Seeing her interest, Mother Gu cheered up and said: "The cook said to stew a can of native chicken soup first, hang a crucian carp on it, seal the crucian carp and the soup pot together, simmer the chicken soup on low heat for an hour or two, and use the soup The steam steams the fish, and the fish meat falls into the soup, leaving the fish bones. There are no bones in the fish meat, so it tastes very tender. "
"I want to learn too. Next time we ask the cook how to prepare fish and chicken." Su Wan looked at Gu's mother and her eyes relaxed a little, then scooped a bowl of angel fish for her and Gu Baozhu: "You guys have a try together, it's delicious. ”
Mother Gu took a sip of the soup, looked at Gu Baozhu who was silent, and then remembered that when Gu Jingyun was around, the two of them were chatting and noisy while eating.
It was obvious that Gu Jingyun had been studying abroad for most of the year. She was the only one at home, and she could bear the loneliness. But right now, her heart felt empty. She was thinking about whether he would be comfortable returning to his mother. Have you eaten at this hour? Are you still feeling sad?
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I became, and my appetite became less and less.
Gu's mother forced herself to drink a bowl of soup.
Su Wan saw that she couldn't eat, so she didn't persuade Mother Gu to eat more. She finished the soup and only had a few bites of vegetables, but she couldn't eat either.
"Wanwan, you are tired too. Take a nap to recuperate. Huaizhi will definitely have something to explain when he comes back." Gu's mother told Su Wan and left with Gu Baozhu.
Su Wan was indeed very tired. She hadn't slept all night. She had been spinning since she woke up yesterday. Her head was sluggish and could not move. She was so exhausted.
Gu Huaizhi is still dealing with it in the palace, and I'm afraid it will be too much for him.
She told the maid who was clearing the table: "Prepare food in the kitchen and stew a cup of bird's nest."
"Yes." The maid cleared the table and left the room.
Su Wan ignored the meal she had just finished and fell on the bed, intending to take a nap before talking. There were still many things waiting for her to do.
Just as she closed her eyes, Su Wan jumped up and sat up suddenly.
"Did I forget to take my medicine?"
Su Wan's drowsiness dispersed completely.
Yesterday, she was planning to go out to buy medicine and prepare a prescription pill to take. Gu Jingyun's news was too sudden. She rushed into the palace to discuss it with the queen and forgot about it.
She wanted to get some medicine, but she collapsed on the bed.
It's been almost two days, is it still too late?
Forget it.
Su Wan touched her belly. It was just this once and she would never be so unlucky to get hit.
Counting the days, it seems to be a safe period.
Su Wan thought for a while and fell asleep sleepily.
The sky was dark, and Su Wan was extremely hot, as if she was sleeping next to a stove. She struggled, and the arms around her waist tightened, and she woke up.
"woke up?"
A low hoarse voice sounded above his head, and his chin gently rubbed his hair. The hand on his waist moved up, turning her around and placing her head on his chest.
Su Wan hugged his waist and yawned, "What's going on in the palace?"
"It's in the plan." Gu Huaizhi lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "Jingyun is very lonely in the palace. The Queen is very good to him. But after all, he is a stranger. He will be scared and uneasy, and he will try hard to adapt. Tomorrow I will It would be better if he brought the treasure into the palace and had a good playmate by his side."
"Baozhu is also very disappointed today. We two grew up together, and suddenly one of them left. I feel very uncomfortable." Su Wan took out the token from under the pillow and placed it in Gu Huaizhi's palm: "Mrs. Cao came to see me today. She saved Cao Wanqing's life, which is the majority of the Cao family's property, and also promised her father to help regain Jinzhou's military and financial power. She didn't ask her parents' family to help save her because she didn't want her parents to go through troubled waters. "
"There's no point in begging. On the other side of Jinzhou, if her father is willing to help, it will be very worry-free. You can save her if you want." Gu Huaizhi frowned and said with reluctance: "I may be very busy next time. , if it is very late, he will stay in the palace."
"Thank you for your hard work, husband." Su Wan hugged his neck and kissed him on the cheek. Her chest felt cold. She untied her clothes with one hand and quickly held it down with her hand: "I have something to tell you. , I forgot to take the pills yesterday, I don’t know if I will have a baby.”
"Gu Huaizhi leaned over and nibbled the back of her hand. She shrank back in itch and bit her belt open: "Give birth if you're pregnant."
"Hey, shut up. It's getting dark. Have you eaten?"
"I'll eat later..."
When he said this, his thin lips fell on her neck, and his warm palms stroked her waist and abdomen. Su Wan was stimulated to tremble all over, curled up under him and trembled.
Gu Huaizhi looked at her soft appearance, as if letting him do whatever he wanted. His Adam's apple slid unconsciously, and a tide of emotions surged in his dark eyes.
...
Outside the window, the night was deep and the night watch sounded.
On the messy bed, Gu Huaizhi kissed her shoulders again and again.
"Pa——"
Su Wan slapped him away and glared at him: "I'm hungry and want to eat!"
"Not going to sleep?" Seeing that she was about to explode again, Gu Huaizhi smiled and stopped teasing her: "Go out to eat, or bring it to me?"
"Go out to eat. "Su Wan was not used to eating in bed, not to mention... She glared at Gu Huaizhi again and propped herself up to sit up.
Gu Huaizhi picked up her clothes and put them on her. The two of them got out of bed and prepared to go out when they heard a faint bell.
The two people's faces suddenly changed, and they looked at each other with solemn expressions.
The bell sounded from the direction of the palace, which meant that the emperor had passed away?!
