One big and one small, just staring at the door with big eyes and confronted each other.

Yao didn't care about her husband at this moment, and her heart was already filled with Gu Jiao.

After she entered the house, she sat down directly beside Gu Jiao's bed.

Gu Jiao's face was much stronger than last night, but she was still a bit sickly pale.

The so-called illness is in the child's body and the pain is in the mother's heart. Yao's heart aches when he sees his child's illness so much.

Looking at the house she lives, Yao's eyes were red.

Yao held her hand again, and the calluses and wounds on her hands made Yao's palms hurt.

Yao could no longer help but sobbed silently...

The old lady slept in the room and woke up and planned to see how Gu Jiao was doing. As soon as she entered the main hall, she saw Xiao Jingkong sitting at the door like a small stone.

"Huh? Haven't you gone out?"

The old lady wondered.

Although Xiao Jingkong is just a three-year-old child, he is actually very busy every day.

He continued his habit of doing morning and evening classes in the temple. After getting up, he would definitely recite Buddhist scriptures in his heart. After reciting, he went to the small forest behind the house to practice.

Once when the old lady came out, she saw him grab his feet with both hands and wrap him around a thick tree. The old lady almost thought she had seen the little snake demon!

He practices basic skills. Occasionally, Gu Jiao will accompany him to practice, but if no one is with him, he will practice by himself, without any water.

After practicing, he would go to find friends from the village, come back for lunch, and help Gu Jiao work in the afternoon.

Now is the time for him to go to the village to cause trouble for his friends.

Xiao Jingkong replied: "Jiaojiao is sick, I want to accompany Jiaojiao."

His schedule does not allow anyone to disrupt it, only Jiaojiao can do it.

This answer was not surprising. The old lady said oh, her eyes passed over him, and landed on the strange man at the door.

"Who is this?" she asked lightly.

Xiao Jingkong held back the "three words" of the bad guy because she promised Jiaojiao not to tell the family about their arrest, so as not to worry about her aunt and bad brother-in-law.

"One person." Xiao Jingkong said disgustedly.

Old lady: Can I not see this person?

The old lady didn't think much about it and walked towards the door.

At this time, Mr. Gu also noticed the old lady walking towards him.

Mr. Gu found out about Gu Jiao's current situation clearly. He knew that not only did he know that she adopted a young monk, but he also knew that she had picked up a cripple husband, and also had an aunt who came to join them.

My aunt belongs to the man’s family.

No, she is so poor herself, why do she still pick up people at home?

Can you pick up a prime minister or a queen mother?

Do you have no idea how much you have?

Thinking of this, Mr. Gu was so angry that he came.

However, when the old lady got closer and saw the other person's appearance, she was not angry, but she couldn't breathe at all!

"Madam, Madam..."

Queen Mother?

Mr. Gu’s knees softened, and a big fall fell to the threshold, and he was overwhelmed!

The old lady looked at the stranger who was thrown at her feet. She gave such a big gift when she first met. She touched her chin: "...No need."

Xiao Jingkong turned his head and said, "I'm here to find Jiaojiao. The female donor has already entered. I'll guard here and not let him in!"

It was fine to not allow men to enter Jiaojiao's house. The old lady did not doubt that she had him, and she was too lazy to ask Mr. Gu who was. She yawned and went to the backyard to eat melon seeds.

Mr. Gu got up with his almost fallen head.

From his perspective, we can clearly see the old lady sitting on the bench outside the back door of the main hall. She was wearing the clothes of a country man and wrapped in an old village woman's head turban on her head.

From this perspective, Mr. Gu felt that he was not that similar again.

Empress Dowager Zhuang married the late emperor at the age of thirteen. She was named a virtuous queen when she entered the palace. She dominated the harem for decades and ruled behind the curtain for seventeen years. Although she did not give birth to a son and half of her daughter for the late emperor, her current Majesty was the one who supported the throne with her hands. Her status was unshakable in both the harem and the court.

Most people can't see this Empress Dowager Zhuang.

Mr. Gu was lucky enough to see her twice, once at the palace banquet on the Zhongyuan Festival. He only saw a figure from afar, but Empress Dowager Zhuang was so domineering that she actually compared the emperor beside her.

Another time, he entered the palace to visit the pregnant concubine Shu, who ran into Empress Dowager Zhuang's carriage.

He retreated to the side to salute Empress Dowager Zhuang.

He just took a bold look, and his sharp eyes almost made him breathless on the spot.

Empress Dowager Zhuang is not a good person, otherwise she would not have been scolded as a poisonous queen or a demon queen behind her back.

Apart from the similar appearance, the old lady in front of her has the aura of Queen Mother Zhuang?

"Auntie, are you stealing food again?" Xiao Jingkong suddenly found that the old lady was eating melon seeds and turned around and saw that she had carried the candy dried bayberry jarberry in some way.

The old lady turned her back decisively and threw Xiao Jingkong into the back of her head: "Don't talk nonsense! Where do I have it?"

As he said that, he grabbed a handful of hand and stuffed it into his purse.

When Xiao Jingkong came to confiscate the jar, she had already hidden a lot.

Mr. Gu took everything into consideration and became more convinced that this person was a foodie, not Empress Dowager Zhuang!

--

Inside the house, Gu Jiao woke up quietly.

She could have woken up earlier, but in order to let her sleep, Yao temporarily made a curtain to cover the window.

The dim light made people sleep well, and Gu Jiao slept until noon.

She opened her eyes and found someone sitting by the bed, and the alarm suddenly came to a loud voice in her heart!

She pulled out the dagger under the pillow, walked around the other person's neck, pressed the knife to the other person's neck, and held the other person back in her arms!

"Jiaojiao, it's me!" said Yao.

Gu Jiao paused slightly when she heard the familiar voice, the vigilance between her eyebrows dispersed, she took away the dagger and let her go: "Mrs. Gu?"

That moment just now, Yao's cold sweat broke out.

She turned around, calmed down, and stuck her hand out to touch Gu Jiao's forehead: "How do you feel?"

Gu Jiao subconsciously turned her head to avoid her hand.

Yao's expression paused and said embarrassedly: "Did you scare you?"

The light in the room was a little dim. Gu Jiao didn't see the redness and swollen eyes, but saw the blood on her neck.

It was done when she just held her hostage.

She was in high fever and her strength was not as accurate as usual, so she was injured by accident.

But her first reaction was not to pay attention to her injuries, but to pay attention to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao looked at her with a complicated expression.

Yao noticed Gu Jiao's eyes, covered the wound with a veil, and smiled and said, "I'm fine, Jiaojiao, how do you feel?"

She asked the second time.

Gu Jiao thought about it and answered her: "I'm fine, what is Mrs. Gu doing here?"

"I'll take a look at you." Yao said, walking to the window and opening the curtains. The strong light instantly shone in through the window paper.

Gu Jiao's eyes closed slightly, and it took a moment to get used to the light. She said, "Mrs. Gu has just been poisoned and should rest in bed."

Yao's gentle eyes fell on her little face: "I know, I'm here today, but I actually have something to say to you."

Gu Jiao looked at Yao and suddenly found a crystal clear tear in her eyes.

Yao came to her step by step, held her hand, and carefully looked on her thin face.
