After breakfast, Gu Yunjiao lit the charcoal basin when she saw that it was cold.

While reading the book, Gu Chuan suddenly ran in and said with a strange expression, "Sister, uncle and mother are here, looking for eldest sister next door."

"I heard my uncle ask next door just now, is it the Zhao family that Gu Mei married?"

He paused, his voice suddenly lowered, "Uncle drove the car, my mother sat in the carriage, I hid behind a tree, and they didn't see me."

Gu Yunjiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "What are you hiding?"

Gu Chuan suddenly hugged Gu Yunjiao's arm, "I don't want to go back with my mother."

After a while, I heard Gu Mei shouting outside, "Gu Yunjiao, come out!"

Gu Yunjiao put down the book in her hand and led Gu Chuan out.

Gu Mei stood at the door and glanced vaguely at the west wing before turning his eyes to Gu Yunjiao and his brother.

When Gu Yunjiao went out, she saw a carriage listening to a carriage outside the yard. A man who looked a bit like Mrs. Li was sitting on the carriage. Gu Yunjiao was blessed, "Uncle—"

Li Xi frowned and sneered, "You sisters are really interesting."

"Your father's gone, you two only care about getting married, and just leave your mother alone?"

Gu Yunjiao held Gu Chuan's hand tightly and glanced at the carriage with the curtain down.

Li Shi should be in it. She is also a cruel person. She has been there for two months and doesn't seem to miss her seven-year-old son at all.

He didn't even lift the curtain to take a look.

Li Xi said with a cold face, "You all get in the car and go home to discuss your mother's affairs."

Gu Yunjiao thought for a while, "Uncle wait a moment, I have to tell my mother-in-law."

She turned around and entered the door and said to Chen Shi, and then she and Gu Chuan got on the carriage.

Mr. Li sat in the carriage, looking haggard.

She was wearing a gray padded jacket, with a bare head and no jewelry.

Gu Yunjiao glanced at her earlobe.

Her father once gave Li a pair of gold earrings, which Li loved so much that he seldom took them off when he was sleeping.

There is nothing on that ear now.

Aware of Gu Yunjiao's gaze, Li Shi flinched, her face full of discomfort.

After waiting for a while, Gu Mei also got into the car.

She looked Li Shi up and down, and then pouted her lips without a trace.

After a while, Gu Mei pretended to be affectionate and smiled at Mrs. Li, "Mother, you haven't been here for a long time, why did you come back?"

Li Shi's mouth was flat, as if he was about to cry, "I, the money is gone, what if I don't come back?"

Gu Mei said in surprise: "Mother, the twenty taels of silver are gone?"

"More than 20 taels of silver, save it for a few years!"

Li Shi said aggrievedly: "What do you know, along the way, whether it's food or accommodation, you have to spend money."

"I don't dare to go out, and I have to spend money to ask someone to inquire about your father's whereabouts."

"Am I easy?"

Gu Mei quickly grasped the key information in Li's words, "You went to Fucheng, stayed in the inn every day, and then spent money to ask someone to find out about your father?"

Li Shi said aggrieved: "Otherwise, what else can I do?"

"I'm a weak woman, and there are many bad people outside. Of course I can't go out and run around. If someone else kidnapped me, wouldn't you have no mother?"

Gu Yunjiao couldn't help but complain in her heart, it would be better not to have a mother like you.

Gu Mei raised his forehead, "So, why did you go to Fucheng?"

"You might as well sit at home, give your money to a reliable person, and let someone go to the palace to find your father!"
