This time, the noise finally stopped for a moment, and immediately after, the sound of human footsteps was heard.

The next moment, the courtyard door was opened from the inside.

Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong looked at each other and saw a thin and gray-haired old man standing in front of them.

The old man's face was numb, and his squinted eyes were vicissitudes.

He looked at the two people in front of him, a little puzzled, and frowned and asked, "Who are you?" ”

If the address is correct, judging from the age of the person in front of him, it should be that Gu Yiping.

A smile instantly hung on Gu Yundong's face, and he asked, "Are you Gu Yiping, the old man of the Gu family?" We are from the capital. ”

Capital???

Hearing these two words that seemed very far away, Gu Yiping's numb face finally flashed with excitement, and there was a trace of light in his eyes.

But he was quickly pressed down, he glanced at the two of them, took a deep breath slowly, and said, "Come in first." ”

Then he turned around and limped out into the courtyard. But despite this, you can still see his eager steps from the back.

Gu Yundong looked at his legs with some surprise, and then immediately withdrew his gaze.

Normally, it is not easy for an exile to survive here for twenty years, let alone a full beard.

She and Shao Qingyuan followed closely and walked in.

Although the courtyard of the ancient family is broken, it covers a large area and has a lot of rooms. There are rooms on the left and right, and there are many things piled up in the yard, and a vegetable patch has been opened in the corner.

Gu Yiping led them into the hall and pointed to the stool that didn't look very stable on the side, "Sit down." ”

Then he shouted outside, "Old woman, pour some water." His voice trembled with excitement.

He turned around and said to the two, "In the countryside, there is no good tea, so I can only pour some water to quench your thirst." ”

This Shao Qingyuan doesn't matter, "Don't worry." ”

But in a moment, a mother-in-law who looked to be about the same age as Gu Yiping came in.

"Two of you have tea."

The voice......

Wasn't it the sharp beating and scolding they heard outside the courtyard gate before?

I don't know who she was scolding, but I heard another woman's voice in the yard.

Mrs. Gu didn't leave after delivering the water, she sat on the stool on the other side, staring at the two of them.

Gu Yundong, "......"

Gu Yiping didn't say anything, and he didn't seem to say anything when there was a big noise in the courtyard just now.

Seeing that Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong hadn't drunk water, he squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "I don't know what the son is called?" ”

"My surname is Shao."

Hearing the word Shao, Gu Yiping's face changed suddenly, as if he thought of something bad, and his hand holding the cane tightened tightly.

He could still restrain himself, but Madam Gu had already stood up suddenly, and said angrily, "Are you from the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion?" Why, the surname Shao has hurt us so badly, and you still want to kill them all? ”

Shao Qingyuan shook his head, "No, I have nothing to do with the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion. It's just that the surname is Shao, and his hometown is in Xuanhe Mansion. ”

When Gu Yiping heard this, his face was relieved, and he exhaled slowly.

He glared at Madame Gu, who sat back in a daze.

muttered in his mouth, "Who let him not explain." ”

"Shut up." Gu Yiping asked with a smile on his face, "Young Master Shao specially came from the capital to look for us, but what's the matter?" ”
