The Reborn Concubine Returns

Chapter 157: Strange

Gu Qingping was busy staring at Bai Qingran. Since the last poisoning incident, although he had recuperated for a long time, Bai Qingran's body was still a little weak, especially because of a fear of cold. However, he didn't pay much attention to his own body. This time he broke Gu Qingping's heart, and he naturally missed Chongjin's eyes, but he was very angry with Chongjin, and vowed to do the same tomorrow. To fight Gu Qingping to the end.

The woman came back after a while, and brought back some simple stir-fried vegetables, thick noodle steamed buns, and a pot of hot tea. Nothing.And although the dishes are simpler, the little girl's eyes clearly revealed that these meals are very rich and rare in their house, so the few people who knew it were just a few symbolic mouthfuls and then put it down chopsticks, picked up the hot tea in front of him and took a few sips, all as a way to warm up his body.

That woman is also a talkative person, don't worry about Bai Qingran's too much guidance, she would already start talking enthusiastically, and the room was very lively for a while.Bai Qingran didn't directly ask about the official salt, but pretended to be curious and asked the woman if she knew about it. It was impossible to imagine that when Bai Qingran uttered the word "official salt", the woman's expression changed instantly. He changed his appearance, which was very strange. After he came back to his senses soon, he didn't answer Bai Qingran's question directly, but just smiled and prevaricated a few words and then disappeared.Bai Qingran knew in her heart that there must be something strange about this matter, but she shouldn't be too hasty, so she also smiled and didn't ask any further questions.

Halfway through the conversation, the man in the room suddenly called out for the woman to come in.The woman was stunned for a moment, her expression slightly flustered, and after she realized it, she complained to the man in the room like an ordinary couple, then put down the rag in her hand and walked towards the room.

The woman's expression didn't fall enough to be seen clearly by Bai Qingran, and Bai Qingran didn't express too much, just slightly lowered her eyebrows and took a sip of tea, then quietly listened to the conversation between Chongjin and the others and the little girl Laughing.

After the woman entered the room, Chong Jin's voice consciously lowered a lot, and she sat aside calmly, still chatting with the little girl in a few sentences, while silently paying attention to the movement in the room.

But after a while, after the woman came out of the house, she still had that enthusiastic and simple look, and she didn't show anything.Bai Qingran saw that the tea bowl was almost full, so she got up and said goodbye to the woman's family.Although the woman still tried to persuade her, Bai Qingran declined with a smile. Before leaving, she even stuffed the little girl with a handful of broken silver, and the woman's face was even more so smiling that her eyes narrowed into slits. , smiling so much that Gu Qingping and the others left.

Bai Qingran and the others drove away, and they didn't say much along the way. Gu Qingping only thought that Bai Qingran was a little tired after the day, so he sat up slightly so that Bai Qingran could sleep on his shoulders. Be more comfortable, bumpy and quiet all the way to get the inn.

Chongjin disappeared halfway, and he said that he wanted Gu Qingping to accompany him with the money for the new clothes. Anyway, Gu Qingping was so vague that he didn't hear clearly, so he didn't take it to heart, rolled his eyes, and watched Chongjin leave up.

When they arrived at the inn, Bai Qingran, who had slept all the way, regained her spirits. Except for the short time when Gu Qingping carried the sedan chair upstairs to the inn, she was a little confused, and she was completely awake in the private room upstairs. drowsiness.After Gu Qingping carefully put Bai Qingran on the bed, just as he was about to look back, he was taken aback by Bai Qingran's wide open bright eyes.

"Qing Ran, why didn't you tell me when you woke up, but I just woke you up?"

"It's okay, I just got out of the carriage and just woke up. Has Chongjin left?"

Bai Qingran mentioned Chongjin, and Gu Qingping felt a little guilty when he thought of Chongjin's sleeves full of beef soup, but he quickly comforted himself that the big flower cloth was too clumsy, and his own good intentions didn't allow the big flower cloth to continue , It's really stupid, don't blame him.

"He seemed to have left in a hurry because of something urgent on the way. I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I thought about waiting for you to wake up. It's not something important anyway."

Listening to Gu Qingping's explanation, Bai Qingran didn't react at all. She rubbed her sleepy eyes with her hands, and stared blankly at Gu Qingping. The soft and sleepy appearance almost made Gu Qingping bleed. , Silently grasping his own little heart to be able to explain.

After Bai Qingran listened in a daze, his head came to his senses slightly. After drinking a cup of tea, his mind was not fully awake, but he did not feel sleepy at all.Bai Qingran was a little speechless, stroked her forehead silently, raised her head and glanced at Gu Qingping, but she didn't know why, Gu Qingping's handsome face was tense, but there was a little blush, looking rather pervasive , Bai Qingran felt a little scary, so she didn't continue to look at Gu Qingping who was so cute.

After bowing his head and silently sipping the tea, the sweet and bitter tea fragrance permeated his lips and tongue.As soon as Bai Qingran closed her eyes, she remembered a few strange things that happened by the river today.

Bai Qingran followed his thoughts and stroked the weird forest, the scattered villages, the enthusiastic women and the man in the house. Bai Qingran was a little lost in thought, but he couldn't find the place between these people for a while. to any evidence link.

After about a cup of tea, Gu Qingping also came to his senses, Qingran probably slept a little in the car, but didn't feel like going to sleep anymore, with a serious expression, he seemed to be thinking about what happened during the day.The feelings of Gu Qingping and Bai Qingran were almost the same, but they couldn't think of the connection between these few things.At this time, Gu Qingping couldn't help but start to complain about himself in the previous life again, why he had to hand everything over to Situ Mu like lard, and he didn't even bother to ask about it.Even if you need to understand a little bit, Qingran won't be so worried about him.

"Qing Ran, it's getting late at this time, let's talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to do."

Gu Qingping got up, walked quietly behind Bai Qingran, took down the cold tea in Bai Qingran's hand that had already lost the white mist, half pushed Bai Qingran to the bedside, and knelt down to let Bai Qingran take off her clothes. Shoes and socks, covered with a quilt.

Bai Qingran also thought that after spending so much time, he would not be able to find any treasures from the few clues, so he might as well rest and go to the village tomorrow to have a look.Seeing Gu Qingping bowed his head and bent over, with a smile on his face, Bai Qingran also stared at Gu Qingping's good-looking eyes, for the first time in the past few days, he smiled sweetly, like a cute dog Little milk cat, soft and sweet.
