Chapter 17 Uneasy and Kind
Gu Sheng is wearing a dark blue robe today, with a maroon belt, and his hair is neatly tied on top of his head, which is much more solemn than usual.
If he was walking on the road, people would probably think that he was a noble son of some family, not a servant of the Earl's Mansion.
Zhong Ning naturally also noticed at this time, she looked Gu Sheng up and down, with a puzzled tone.
"Huh? Did you just go out?"
Zhong Ning knew that Gu Sheng was very concerned about his lost memories, and was still investigating his life experience, but unfortunately, after more than three years, there was still no clue at all.
Thinking about this, Zhong Ning asked another question.
"Have you found any clues this time?"
Gu Sheng didn't seem to want to discuss this topic with her, so he just shook his head and said "no", then looked at Zhong Ning straightly, and said in a deep tone.
"Didn't you say before that you didn't want the things from the Shen family? Why do you suddenly want to take them back?"
Zhong Ning looked a little embarrassed, hesitating.
"It's not Li'er, she said it, and..."
Speaking of this, Zhong Ning looked around guiltily, and after confirming that there was no one around, he approached Gu Sheng, and said cautiously.
"Li'er said she wanted to sell the land and then leave the capital."
Zhong Ning was a little embarrassed after finishing speaking, after all, this kind of idea of abandoning his family and career was really deviant, so he added a sentence.
"But I haven't figured it out yet."
After the voice fell, the air was silent for a while, and then Gu Sheng's words with a little profound meaning sounded.
"I didn't expect her not only her voice to be cured, but also her mind to be bright."
Zhong Ning looked up at Gu Sheng, and was a little confused before realizing that he should be referring to Shen Li, and she agreed.
"Well, Li'er is quite smart."
Gu Sheng's complexion inexplicably improved, and he stopped playing around with Zhong Ning.
"Okay, I will go outside the house to find those who need it, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Does that require a lot of money? I don't have it in hand yet. Wait..."
She was interrupted by Gu Sheng before she finished speaking.
"No need, I have met a group of brothers in the capital over the past few years, just ask them for help."
Zhong Ning was a little surprised: "Oh, then..."
"Ma'am, ma'am!"
Mingyue rushed over from afar and interrupted what Zhong Ning was about to say.
Zhong Ning saw her hurried pace, and thought she had something important to do.
"What's the matter, it's in a hurry."
After Mingyue approached, she looked at Zhong Ning and said with a sigh of relief when she saw that there was nothing unusual about her.
"It's nothing at all, because the housekeeper said he didn't look for me at all."
After she finished speaking, she stared at Gu Sheng with rounded eyes, as if waiting for him to give an explanation.
Gu Sheng looked back at her calmly, and his voice was calm.
"Maybe I misheard."
Mingyue: "You!"
Gu Sheng ignored Mingyue's sword-ridden appearance, and only told Zhong Ning.
"It's getting late, I'll go back first."
Zhong Ning nodded, and was about to say something when Mingyue, who was full of righteous indignation, suddenly pulled him into the room.
Mingyue muttered as she walked inside.
"It's time to go back a long time ago, running to the wife's yard every day, who knows what kind of peace he has."
She said this bluntly, Zhong Ning frowned upon hearing that, Gu Sheng is a good person, and he is kind to the Earl's House, Zhong Ning privately does not want others to misunderstand him, so he hastily explained.
"I invited him here just now, and he was asking for something. Gu Sheng is a good person, so don't say that about him."
