Gu Yundong walked towards her room. Seeing that he was still standing there, she raised her eyebrows and said, “Come in. Don’t you have something to tell me?”
Xue Rong lowered his head and followed her into the room. He carefully closed the door.
He even went over to pour a cup of tea for Gu Yundong. This person had really been professionally trained.
“Miss, you said that you have a clue about Bai Muzi. Were you referring to the Xin family?”
Gu Yundong thought that he indeed knew.
“I were. Why? Are you trying to persuade me to give up? Do you think it’s impossible to get Bai Muzi from the Xin family?”
Xue Rong thought for a moment. “It’s indeed impossible to obtain Bai Muzi from the Xin family, because it is no longer in the Xin family.”
Gu Yundong suddenly stood up from his chair. “What did you say?!”
Xue Rong said, “There was indeed a Bai Muzi in the Xin family. However, three months ago, the eldest young master of the Xin family suddenly fell ill, and Bai Muzi was used by him.”
What he didn’t say was that it was also because of that illness that two servants were killed in the courtyard of the eldest young master of the Xin family. The rest were sold, and he was one of them.
Gu Yundong frowned fiercely. Two to three months ago, didn’t that mean that it was gone before Dr. Song wrote to her?
Communications in this era were so inconvenient that the information lagged for so long.
“You promise, no more?”
Xue Rong knelt down. “I can swear that I didn’t lie to you just now.”
“Alright, get up. I don’t mean to question you.” Gu Yundong rubbed her temples and sighed inwardly.
However, Xue Rong still knelt on the ground and had no intention of getting up. Gu Yundong frowned. “Why? Is there anything else?”
“Miss, I know that Old Master’s injury was caused by the Second Young Master of the Xin family.” Xue Rong lowered his head. “Miss, do you want to avenge Old Master?”
“You don’t think I can do it?”
Xue Rong pursed his lips. Hearing Gu Yundong’s words, his body trembled and he hesitated for a moment.
He shut his mouth and did not say anything else.
Gu Yundong was so angry that she almost laughed. “Xue Rong, I know that you used to serve the eldest young master of the Xin family. The Xin family is rich and has many rules. There are also many demons and monsters inside, and there are endless open and hidden conflicts. I understand that you’ve developed a cautious personality, but I’m not the Xin family. There’s no need to hide anything, and you don’t have to be afraid that I’ll be unhappy if I hear it. I hope you can be straightforward. I won’t blame you.”
Xue Rong was stunned for a moment before he smiled bitterly in his heart.
After a long time, he nodded slightly. “I don’t think you can’t do it, Miss. It’s just that the Xin residence is far larger than what the outside world sees. The inside is complicated. Not only does it have the prefecture magistrate as its backer, but it also has someone in the capital and even… In short, it won’t be easy for Miss to deal with Second Young Master.”
Gu Yundong sneered. After saying so much, didn’t he still think that she couldn’t do it?
Indeed, if she was alone, she would consider it carefully. After all, dealing with the Xin family was not the same as dealing with the Gu family. But didn’t the Xin family want to die? She could give them a push.
“Alright, I know what you’re saying. I know what to do. Go back and take care of my father first.”
Xue Rong felt that Miss would not let the matter rest, but he could not say anything.
In the following days, Gu Yundong focused on taking care of Gu Dajiang. It was as if he had nothing else to do other than let him recuperate.
Xue Rong had a very strange feeling. Miss seemed to have given up, but she also seemed to be planning something, but she did not do anything.
Six days later, when Gu Dajiang could walk on the ground, someone came to the inn.
