Chapter 6 Blood Light

Looking at the gleaming dagger, Old Li was so frightened that he took several steps back, his feet went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Gu Yanfei inserted the dagger back into the scabbard without changing his expression, his movements were crisp and neat, and he thought: It really is a good sword!

Juanbi stood there dumbfounded.

"Juanbi, let's go." Gu Yanfei smiled slightly, with a sweet smile.

She carried her skirt and stepped across the high threshold, her figure was always elegant and straight.

Juanbi was a beat slower before following.

As soon as the master and servant entered the door, they heard a staid and stern female voice aggressively reprimanding:

"Second girl, look at you, how can you look like a noble lady in the Hou family!"

Not far away, a nanny in a rust-colored dark-striped beanie and three or four wives came here aggressively.

The leader was a nanny in her early fifties, with drooping eyes, several deep grooves at the corners of her eyes, and a hint of arrogance between her brows.

Juanbi called out in a low voice: "Nurse Xu."

Three months ago, it was this Nanny Xu who went to Huaibei under the orders of the Madam of the Houfu, and brought Gu Yanfei here.

Nanny Xu walked straight up to Gu Yanfei, and didn't intend to salute her. She scanned her from head to toe with critical eyes, and frowned when she brushed over her messy temple hair and the mud on her skirt. The second girl is really out of place, even worse than the first and second maids of their Hou Mansion.

If it wasn't for the marriage between the Hou family and the Fang family...

Nanny Xu restrained her mind, and said sharply: "Second Miss, Mrs. Tai asked you to stay here temporarily to learn the rules. Is that how you learn the rules?!"

"You are about to reach the age of Ji. A girl in the boudoir should read more "Lady's Ring" and "Girl's Training" at home. You should be a female celebrity. Look at your current appearance. You are disheveled and early. Returning late, I just returned... hey!"

"If this gets out, it will only make people laugh at the Gu family's helplessness in teaching their daughters."

"You have really failed Mrs. Tai's painstaking efforts. Fortunately, Mrs. Tai sent a special letter to ask how you learned the rules, thinking of taking you back to Beijing earlier."

Nanny Xu shook her head in contempt, her superior posture and tone, as if she was the master and Gu Yanfei was the servant.

"Nurse Xu, you misunderstood." Juan Bi hurriedly told about the accident of the carriage falling off the cliff, and when he talked about the dead coachman and the rough envoy, his eyes were slightly red.

Nanny Xu frowned more and more, her expression became more and more rigid, and she reprimanded Gu Yanfei: "Second Miss, if you didn't insist on going out, why did you come to this!"

This sentence is tantamount to blaming Gu Yanfei for the death of the coachman and the rough envoy.

Gu Yanfei raised her eyebrows, her gaze resting on Nanny Xu's face.

In her previous life, she woke up from a coma early the next morning. She had a high fever and was weak. There was no happiness for the rest of her life, only deep fear.

At that time, Nanny Xu also reprimanded her in the same way, saying that she killed Juanbi, the coachman and the others.

She believed it, and just as Nanny Xu wished, she blamed herself for all the faults... After that, she spent many years in guilt and self-blame, and she became more and more inferior, always looking forward and backward.

But now she won't be so stupid anymore.

She knows who is really wrong and who should pay the price for it. She will not blame herself for other people's mistakes.

"Nurse Xu, how could you..."

Juan Bi anxiously wanted to argue for Gu Yanfei, but Gu Yanfei stopped him: "Juan Bi, that's enough."

Gu Yanfei and Nanny Xu looked at each other, their eyes were like abyss.

Nanny Xu thought she had the upper hand, she curled her lower lip triumphantly, and there was a hint of sarcasm between her brows.

Couldn't she still make a film about a girl from the countryside? !

Nanny Xu brushed off her sleeves casually, then turned to Juanbi and said, "Juanbi, Mrs. Tai asked you to serve by the girl's side in order to persuade the girl well. It's good for you to encourage the girl to stay away from home!"

"I'll punish you with thirty slaps on the mouth."

Nanny Xu sneered slowly, intending to make an example of others.

"Juanbi, let's go." Gu Yanfei said calmly, not wanting to talk nonsense with Madam Xu at all, so he walked away.

It's outrageous! ! Immediately, Nanny Xu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and she shouted: "Don't leave!"

"I wonder how Mammy thinks your body compares to the door?" Gu Yanfei walked forward, glanced at half of the door on the ground, and at the same time smiled brightly, showing the meaning of demonstration beyond words.

There was a silence around, Lao Li and the wives were dumbfounded.

"..." Nanny Xu felt as if she had been slapped in public, and the anger in her heart was slowly rising.

She had been in the Hou's mansion for decades, and even the princes and girls in the mansion would give her some face, but she was so humiliated by such a country girl who couldn't get on the stage.

"Second girl!" Xu Momo's voice was cold, and her eyes stabbed like knives, "If you continue to mess around, you will never even think about going back to the Hou Mansion!"

Nanny Xu made no secret of the threat in her words, she was sure that the other party would give in.

In no mood--

Gu Yanfei didn't move at all, and shrugged nonchalantly: "Then I won't return."

The evening wind blew a few strands of blue hair along her cheeks, and the ends of her hair caressed the girl's beautiful face, giving people a feeling of alienation and indifference.

Juan Bi obeyed and immediately followed.

Mother Xu's three white eyes were full of surprise.

In the past three months, she has guided her step by step, suppressed her step by step, and progressed step by step. She clearly has completely grasped this dull and cowardly country girl. Why did this girl change into a different person in just one day? Like!

When passing by Nanny Xu, Gu Yanfei lightly said:

"Bad luck is all over you, you are about to suffer a bloody disaster."

"You dare to curse me?!" Nanny Xu subconsciously raised her voice, her eyebrows raised.

Gu Yanfei didn't have anything else to say, so he shook his sleeves and left.

"Stop!" Nanny Xu sullenly, her chest heaving violently, was about to chase after her.

However, she forgot that the broken door was lying across her feet, and she tripped over her right foot, and her bloated body suddenly lost its balance, screaming and falling forward.

All this happened so fast that the other people around didn't even have time to help them, they just watched Xu Nanny fall to the ground.

Her jaw hit the door heavily, her mouth was covered with blood, she screamed and spat out a front tooth. The hairpin on her head was skewed, and half of her gray and thin hair was scattered, making her look like a mad woman, in a state of embarrassment.

One woman stunned and tugged at the other woman next to her, almost kneeling.

Just now the second girl said that Nanny Xu had a bloody disaster, but it came true so quickly!

This, this... is too amazing!

"Mother Xu, are you okay?"

After a moment of silence, commotion broke out.

Someone rushed to help Nanny Xu who had fallen to the ground, someone hurried to ask for a doctor, and someone yelled at the concierge to fix the door...

Gu Yanfei didn't care about this.

After returning to the house, she was alone in the room.

This boudoir is simple and elegant, with a small lacquered bed against the wall and a sky-blue curtain hanging above it.

Against the wall on the east side is a dressing table and a black lacquer-painted gold doubloon. A large dark red desk is placed near the east window, facing the small pond outside the window.

Gu Yanfei was sitting in front of the desk by the window, half-lowered her eyes, looked at her nose, nose, mouth, and mouth, trying to feel the aura of the world around her with all her concentration.
