Chapter 61 The Key

"Xia Lian, go and get the key." Gu Yunxie whispered to the maidservant.

Xia Lian was startled, Fushen accepted the order, and turned around to enter the inner room.

After a while, she came out slowly with a copper key, and when she glanced at Gu Yanfei, there was a bit of resentment in her eyes.

"Girl." Xia Lian first presented the copper key to Gu Yunxie, hesitated to speak, and finally swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

Gu Yunxiu then turned and handed the key to Gu Yanfei: "Second Sister, this is the key."

Gu Yanfei accepted it without saying a word, planning to go over and have a look.

She had something in her heart and was about to leave, but she heard Gu Yunxie take a step ahead of her and said: "Second sister, I know you had a hard time in Huaibei in the past, and you should not like me if you don't like me."

"But that incident back then... I was also innocent. At that time, I was just a newborn baby. I didn't know anything, and I was powerless."

"Second sister, what I can pay back, I have already paid it back to you."

Whether it's identity, brother, marriage contract...or this key.

Gu Yunwei stared at Gu Yanfei steadfastly, with a solemn expression, and said word by word: "I don't owe you any more."

Recalling the scenes in the Cihe Hall, Gu Yunxie's expression became more and more determined, and the dust settled in his heart: Gu Yanfei came back with hatred, and even his grandmother couldn't tolerate it, so how could he tolerate himself?

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind howled in from the half-opened window, blowing out an octagonal palace lantern near Gu Yunxie.

Half of the room was dark, only another lamp on the other side was still emitting light quietly.

One half of Gu Yunxie's face was dark, and the other half was bright. The face that was always full of smiles on weekdays was now solemn.

Xia Lian quickly relit the extinguished lantern, and the room was as bright as day again.

At the same time when the lights were turned on, Gu Yunxie returned to his usual appearance, and said in a gentle tone: "If you still can't get over the hurdle in your heart, then from now on, we will not violate the river."

She won't give in anymore, and she won't act in any sisterly love drama.

That's all.

Gu Yanfei tilted his head with a smile that was not a smile, and licked a pair of shallow dimples, and asked indifferently: "You said you were innocent, so what about the person who replaced you and me?"

Gu Yanfei was naturally referring to Su Niang.

"..." Gu Yunxi remained silent as if her throat had been choked.

Since childhood, Su Niang has stayed by her side as a nanny, taking care of her basic necessities of life, paying attention to her emotions, caring about her every frown and smile, and caring for her in every possible way.

Su Niang may be sorry for Gu Yanfei, but she is very good to herself.

Gu Yanfei asked again: "Is she dead?"

"Have you been sent to the official?"

"Where are people?"

Gu Yanfei asked three more questions in succession, concise but to the point.

Gu Yunxi pursed her cherry lips tightly, her face was unnatural, and her eyes wandered for a while.

Half a year ago, after the incident of the real and fake daughter broke out, Mrs. Gu was going to drug Su Niang, but she stopped her, so Su Niang was spared...

Gu Yanfei took a step forward, looked down at Gu Yunxie who was sitting on the chair, and continued in a cold but firm voice: "Is she still in the mansion, living a life with a little maid to serve her?"

Gu Yunxi pursed her lower lip, looked straight into Gu Yanfei's eyes, and said righteously: "Second Sister, do you want her to die? That's a living life!"

In this era of supremacy of imperial power, human life is worthless and the most despicable.

The master can kill the slaves with clubs at will, wrap the corpses in straw mats and throw them in the mass graves without any responsibility.

Gu Yanfei, who grew up in Huaibei, should understand this very well. She should understand the helplessness and humbleness of the people at the bottom best.

Gu Yunxi looked at Gu Yanfei with an indescribable look, and sighed in his heart: Sure enough, people are the most forgetful animals. Gu Yanfei just returned to the capital, and he completely forgot about his former self and put himself in the human world again. From the Venerable Master's position, one overlooks all sentient beings.

"The mistake has already been made. Even if she is killed, time cannot be turned back." Gu Yunxie first moved with reason, and then persuaded with emotion, "Second sister, she brought you and me out of the battlefield in Yangzhou back then. , even if there is no credit, there is hard work..."

"Su Niang is at fault, she did all for me...Although all of this is not what I wanted, I have tried my best to make up for you." Isn't that enough? !

These words are exactly the same as what Gu Yanfei heard from Mrs. Gu in her previous life.

She smiled, and the image of Su Niang's superior benefactor in the previous life when she faced her appeared in her mind.

Gu Yunxi bit her lip slightly, her fingers curled up to pinch the handkerchief.

Gu Yanfei's eyes were clear and cold, and he said: "You said, you have already returned it to me..."

"And what about father? I was supposed to have sex with him for six years."

"There are still fourteen years of misplaced life. For these fourteen years, you are in heaven and I am in hell."

"The Gu family shaped you now, and you still enjoy everything the Gu family has given you with peace of mind, and you refuse to let go... You still don't know!"

Every word and sentence she said left Gu Yunxi speechless.

Gu Yanfei didn't want to listen to Gu Yunxie's sophistry anymore, so he dropped the last sentence: "Gu Yunxie, you heard me clearly, I am the concubine of the Hou family, and you..."

"Just a family child."

After the words were finished, she didn't care about Gu Yunxie's reaction, and walked away with the key.

The door curtain raised and lowered, swinging back and forth, as if laughing mockingly.

Gu Yunxiu froze in place, as if there was an invisible mountain pressing down on her shoulders and back, making her unable to move.

Gu Yanfei's words "family birth" hurt her deeply, and the blood gradually faded from Gu Yunxie's face.

Xia Lian didn't go to see Gu Yanfei off, but looked at the swaying curtain in front of her, and said with righteous indignation: "Girl, the second girl really doesn't know what to do, thank you for treating her so well and saying so many good things for her in front of Fang Shizi, even Da Madam's dowry was also handed over to her..."

Xia Lian really felt wronged for her daughter.

Gu Yunxiu opened the window again, and the bleak cold wind came oncoming. Looking out from the window, he could see Gu Yanfei's back gradually disappearing into the night.

She retreated again and again, yielding again and again, just because she felt that she was the winner in this matter, so she gave in repeatedly, but this did not mean that she was a bun.

It doesn't even mean that Gu Yanfei can rely on her concession and dominate her head.

The night wind was a little cooler, and the night was a little darker, and the silver moon was like a hook.
