She never expected that one day she would meet an acquaintance from her previous life.

Or Gu Qingxuan, who has a close relationship with her.

He was the descendant of Mrs. Gu's natal family in Yongqinbo's house. Because Yongqinbo's family had few heirs, they took him in to raise him. At that time, she was a full five years older than Gu Qingxuan, and she had just returned to Yongqinbo's house from the border.

When she was living in the house, the whole family was very unfriendly to her, only Gu Qingxuan was kind to him.

He was only about ten years old at that time, and he was following her with his elder sister calling him "short".

She saw Gu Qingxuan reading and writing in the house every day, so she took him up trees to hunt birds, down rivers to fish, and did a lot of naughty things. At that time, Gu Qingxuan admired her.

Until she got married, Gu Qingxuan always went to the Hou Mansion to see her.

It was a pity that at that time she was worried about the people in the Hou Mansion and told him tactfully that he was getting older and shouldn't come often. He later stopped coming in person and would only ask others to bring food, drink and fun to him.

Now that she thinks about it, even the one person who truly treated her was pushed away by her own hands.

When she died, Gu Qingxuan was only fourteen years old and only a little taller than her. Now that she was reborn as Chu Xian of Luozhou Chu House, he was actually almost as tall as Chu Xuan.

Calculating, he should be about the same age as Chu Xuan, but I don't know if he has ever resented Chu Xian in Yong Qinbo's mansion.

And do the people in Uncle Yongqin's house care about the deceased legitimate lady?

After so long, Chu Xian felt that apart from killing her enemies, she no longer felt much about the events of her previous life.

But she didn't expect that Gu Qingxuan's appearance would bring up many sad things in her.

That Chu Xian who had to endure humiliation was originally a superfluous person. Now that he is dead, everyone should be happy.

Her father will no longer be scolded by Mrs. Gu because of her, her stepmother will not have to try every means to make her look embarrassed, and her sister-in-law will not compete with her at every turn. Mrs. Gu will not regard her as a Yong.

The shame of Qinbo Mansion, but why, thinking of the past, a fire of unwillingness rose in my heart.

They gathered in her chest, burning her in excruciating pain.

Chu Xian clenched her fists, buried her head in her knees, and slowly hugged herself tightly.

Her whole body was alternately hot and cold, and her head hurt terribly. Finally, Chu Xian could no longer hold on and fainted.

However, at the moment she fell, someone seemed to rush over and catch her.

Chu Xian suffered from typhoid fever and lay in bed in a daze for three or four days before she finally woke up.

During this period, she sometimes felt like she was lying in a warm embrace, sometimes she felt like someone was holding her and feeding her medicine, and it seemed like someone was saying something in her ear.

When she woke up, she only saw Qing Xing sleeping in front of the bed, and Chu Xuan sitting behind the screen reading a book.

As soon as she moved, Chu Xuan put down the book and looked over.

As if after hearing the noise, Chu Xuan quickly put down the book, turned around the screen, and walked to the bed.

Seeing Chu Xian blinking her big eyes, she reached out and touched her head, suddenly smiled and said, "The fever is gone."

While talking, Qing Xing also woke up. Seeing that Chu Xian's face improved, she looked happy and said quickly: "Amitabha, sister finally woke up. She hasn't eaten a few mouthfuls of food in so many days. I'll go and get it right now."

Let the porridge be cooked for the young lady. By the way, I also need to tell the old lady. The old lady has been coming here every day for the past few days. Seeing that the young lady is in pain, she feels like she is being punished."

With that said, he ran out quickly.

Chu Xian was stunned. She didn't expect that Qing Xingran, who had always been steady, would also be in chaos.

She opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but her throat hurt so much that it was about to smoke.

Just as he was feeling uncomfortable, a glass of water was handed to him.

Chu Xuan's hands were slender, strong and well-defined, and she looked very beautiful. She wanted to take it, but she couldn't find the strength after lying down for a few days, so she drank from his hand.

Chu Xuan didn't react at all. Instead, she sat on the bed and used her as a cushion.

When she had drunk enough, Chu Xuan put down the water glass, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, asked her to lie down again, and then tucked her in with the quilt.

Those methodical movements made Chu Xian couldn't help but think, this person is so patient and considerate of her sister, so if she becomes his wife or child in the future, wouldn't she be extremely happy?

I wonder who will be so lucky in the future.

Chu Xian was looking at the ceiling and thinking wildly when Chu Xuan suddenly said: "Do you know Gu Qingxuan?"

Ah? Chu Xian's heart suddenly rose. Did she call Gu Qingxuan's name in her dream while she was ill?

Chu Xuan stared at her with probing eyes.

Chu Xian had just recovered from a serious illness, and her head was still covered, so she had no time to disguise her emotions.

Just when Chu Xian was worried, Chu Xuan touched her head and comforted her: "The person who saved you is Gu Qingxuan. He is from Kyoto."

Chu Xian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Yeah, I didn't expect the young master from Kyoto to be so brave..."

When Mrs. Shen heard that Chu Xian was awake, she hurried over in a hurry. Chu Xuan didn't say anything more. Seeing that Chu Xian was fine, he said goodbye and left.

Si Xi was waiting outside the courtyard. When she saw Chu Xuan coming out, she said, "Master, after checking it out, it was indeed the Third Miss who made the move first. It seems that the Seventh Master's idea was involved. I heard people in Yixiang Garden say,

That night, the seventh young master and the third young lady chatted in the room most of the night."

Chu Xuan nodded, and while walking towards the Dongkua Courtyard where the guests lived, he said: "Go and call the Seventh Young Master to Hanzhang Courtyard, and tell him that I want to teach him his lessons. You should know how to do the rest."

Si Xi immediately responded: "The second young master happens to be idle in the courtyard, so I will invite you over."

Both the master and the servant spoke half of their words, as if they were playing a riddle.

However, there is a tacit understanding.

This kind of thing is obviously not *done.

After Sixi left, Chu Xuan went to Dongkua Yuan.

Gu Qingxuan was practicing his sword in the courtyard, and there was no servant to wait on him. The sweat towel was placed on a branch nearby.

Chu Xuan stood aside quietly and waited. Gu Qingxuan's swordsmanship was superb, his movements were smooth and smooth, and his moves were extremely sharp, which dazzled everyone. Just when the critical point was reached, Gu Qingxuan's sword suddenly turned and stabbed directly at Chu Xuan.

Came over.

That sword was very domineering, fast and cruel, piercing Chu Xuan's face.

Chu Xuan didn't dodge or dodge, and didn't even blink.

Just looking at Gu Qingxuan, his dark eyes seemed to be filled with some kind of gloomy emotion.

"Haha, such courage and determination!" Just before the tip of the sword touched Chu Xuan's eyebrows, Gu Qingxuan stopped his move. The long sword turned and was inserted back into the scabbard.

He looked at Chu Xuan and praised him without hesitation: "He is indeed a well-known talent, Gu admires him."

With that said, he patted Chu Xuan on the shoulder.

But Chu Xuan turned around and flicked the place where he had patted in front of him, as if there was something dirty on it.

Gu Qingxuan's face suddenly looked a little ugly, and he didn't bother to greet him anymore. He took out a sweat towel and wiped the sweat while saying: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Have you been to Luozhou before?"

Gu Qingxuan looked at Chu Xuan doubtfully. He thought Chu Xuan was looking for a fight with his menacing look, but he didn't expect to ask this.

He shook his head and said, "No."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Chu Xuan asked again: "Did you know my sixth sister before?"

Gu Qingxuan laughed: "That little girl who fell into the water?"

Chu Xuan frowned.

"What? She told you that I bullied her?" Gu Qingxuan thought of the scheming little girl, curled his lips disdainfully, and said, "Your sister is not as simple as you think. If she said something,

I advise you to think twice before doing anything."

Save yourself the trouble of being deceived by a child.

Of course, Gu Qingxuan didn't say this, but Chu Xuan heard it.

However, that's not what he cared about.

Seeing that Gu Qingxuan seemed to have nothing to do with Chu Xian, he clasped his fists and said goodbye: "Sorry for disturbing you, Brother Gu, continue."

After Chu Xuan left, Gu Qingxuan still looked confused.

Are you here to ask this?

This Chu Xuan looks very smart, but why does he do things that make people confused?

Gu Qingxuan shook his head, and without taking the chance, he drew out his sword and continued practicing. He didn't like wielding swords and guns before, but someone once told him that a man should be a knight and protect his side.

From then on, he never left his hand with the sword and determined to become a master of swordsmanship. But when he succeeded, that person could never come back.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingxuan's heart felt uncomfortable, and his movements became more fierce and domineering, even faintly mad and resentful.

Chu Xuan left the Dongkua Courtyard and did not go back immediately. Instead, she sat in the octagonal pavilion in the garden and fell into deep thought.

During the three or four days when Chu Xian was ill, he stayed with her every step of the way.

He clearly heard Chu Xian calling daddy in her dream. The voice contained a heavy cry and infinite nostalgia, which made the listener's heart ache.

He thought Chu Xian hated Chu Qian so much that she never regarded him as a father. Before he arrived, he felt so lacking in fatherly love in his heart.

But later, Chu Xian kept calling another name, Qingxuan, Qingxuan...

He heard it truly and truly, it was indeed Qingxuan.
