Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Huaping was the maid who came to serve the young lady after Caiqing. She adapted well to Gu Li's decisive and resolute style at the moment. She helped Gu Li braid a bun that could fit a hat, then turned around and went downstairs to do what the young lady asked her to do.

Gu Li wore a cotton skirt, a padded jacket, and a rabbit fur cloak on the outside. Under the nervous gaze of Hua Ping, she climbed up the wooden ladder.

"Miss, why don't you let Huaping climb up for you? Let Huaping do whatever you need."

"No need, your lady, climbing a ladder is a piece of cake for me!"

It was no wonder Huaping was worried. The cotton pants under the cotton skirt restricted her precise movements, preventing Gu Li from bending her knees wide, making every step she took look particularly clumsy.

Maybe because she wore too many clothes in the winter, Gu Li could hear the wooden ladder creaking slightly every time she stepped on it, which made her feel a little frustrated.

More than four months ago, she could still climb up and down the ladder to pick grapes flexibly, but now the wooden ladder seems to be unable to bear the weight.

Gained weight?

After finally climbing up to the top of the wall, Gu Li grabbed the dry ivy vines wrapped around the wall and lay down on the top of the wall.

With just such a small amount of exercise, she actually felt a little out of breath, and the hot air that came out of her lips made her wonder if she had been too lazy recently.

It was all because Fan Xiliang and Cai Qing were too fragile. They were defeated before they could even start fighting.

Gu Li straightened his hat which was slightly tilted and was about to call for help into the yard when the window of the wing room near the courtyard wall was suddenly opened.

A strange man's face was revealed.

"Who are you? Why are you climbing the wall? What do you want?"

Gu Li, who was confused by the three consecutive questions, also wanted to know who this person was.

She knew everyone in the Jiang family, and she knew most of the servants, but she was sure that among the Jiang family's servants, there was definitely no one with such keen senses and sharp eyes.

Thinking of what Jiang Zhuo had said to her yesterday, Gu Li smiled kindly and pointed at her nose and said, "I am Jiang Zhuo's wife-to-be. You are his friend who fought side by side with him, right?"

Qi Dashan suppressed the fierce look in his eyes and responded with an embarrassed smile.

He should have guessed her identity long ago, but in Qi Dashan's mind, shouldn't the ladies of wealthy families be dignified and reserved? How could they climb over the wall so early in the morning?

Knowing that the little girl lying on the wall was the person Jiang Zhuo brought him to see, Qi Dashan felt a little regretful for a moment. He shouldn't have used such a harsh tone just now.

She is the little wife that Jiang Zhuo has always wanted to marry.

"Ms. Meng, you are looking for Jiang Zhuo. I will go and find him for you right now."

The person who was just practicing military boxing here probably went back to the house to change clothes. Qi Dashan put down the window pusher and knocked on the door of the next room with his crutches.

"Azhuo, Miss Meng from next door is here to see you!"

"what?"

"Hurry up, they are waiting on the wall."

"Ah?" Jiang Zhuo hurriedly wiped his sweaty body, put on his clothes and ran out.

"Ayao!"

Qi Dashan tactfully stood at the door of his room and didn't move forward.

"Ayao, why did you climb up there? Come on, jump down, I'll catch you from below!"

Gu Li's mouth twitched slightly. She was still thought to be the skinny young lady she used to be. With her current weight and physique, she was afraid that if she jumped down, she would smash Jiang Zhuo into the ground.

"No, I just want to tell you that when you are free later, come and help me fix the window in my room!"

Jiang Zhuo understood Gu Li's meaning instantly. He scratched his head awkwardly and laughed dryly. "Big brother, I got it. I'll be there in a moment. By the way, you've met Brother Dashan just now, right? He's the good brother I told you about yesterday, who fought alongside me on the battlefield."

"Yeah, I see."

Gu Li wanted to say something, but Hua Ping, who was holding the ladder below, urged her, "Miss, Grandma Leng is here, please come down quickly."

Gu Li was standing high up and could see far away. Wasn’t that Grandma Leng coming towards her with her hands in her sleeve pockets?

She said, "Let's talk later," and quickly climbed down the wall.

Grandma Leng was a servant of Mrs. You. She must have seen her climb higher, so she hurried over to check on the situation.

She was used to climbing wooden ladders, but this time she was climbing the wall next door, which made her grandma a little worried.

"Miss, although you and the young master of the Jiang family are going to get married in a few days, you can't climb over the wall like you did when you were a child."

"Grandma is confused. Even when I was a kid, I never climbed over a wall. It's always the eldest brother from the Jiang family who does this!"

Grandma Leng was stunned. Is this what she meant?

"Okay, I know grandma is doing this for my own good. I had something I wanted to see my elder brother about, but I was too lazy to go out of the house and take a long detour, so I took a shortcut. Grandma, don't worry, I won't climb anymore in the future."

Just after sending Grandma Leng away, Jiang Zhuo came to her boudoir.

The speed was so fast that Gu Li suspected that Jiang Zhuo had climbed over the wall to get in.

"You climbed over the wall?"

Jiang Zhuo raised the wooden box in his hand and said, "I came here openly through your front door."

The legs are amazingly long.

Gu Li made way for the stairs and said, "Big Brother, you go up and fix it. I'm just going to have breakfast downstairs."

Jiang Zhuo opened his mouth to say that he hadn't had breakfast either, and that he wanted to eat with her, when he heard Gu Li's small mouth gently say, "I'll go home with you after I finish eating-----"

Jiang Zhuo didn't hear clearly what was said next, but he just heard A Yao say that she wanted to go home with him.

So he ran up to the second floor without hesitation, and his men kept using a grindstone to grind off the blood stains on the window frames, and then evenly applied a layer of asphalt.

He jumped out of the window and checked carefully, clearing away all the suspicious blood spots one by one. Then he packed up his things and went downstairs with satisfaction.

Gu Li had finished her breakfast downstairs. Seeing Jiang Zhuo coming down, she picked up a cloth bag that she had prepared long ago and walked to his side, "Let's go."

"Okay, let's go home."

Gu Li tilted her head, "Well, go meet your good brother!"

Jiang Zhuo: ------

"Ms. Meng, you want me to tell a story in public?" Qi Dashan was shocked.

When Jiang Zhuo found his house yesterday, he said that his fiancée's tavern needed a storyteller. Out of trust in Jiang Zhuo, Qi Dashan didn't even ask what the storyteller did. He packed two sets of clothes and followed Jiang Zhuo to the town.

It was only now that I realized that the storyteller had to tell stories in the lobby of a tavern, in front of a room full of guests.

How could a seven-foot-tall man like him do the same thing as the old ladies at the village entrance who sang nursery rhymes to the children?

"Hey, how could you change your mind?" Jiang Zhuo frowned and looked at Gu Li carefully.

Gu Li didn't have any extra expression. "I guess it's because my elder brother didn't explain things to you clearly. But if you can't accept this job, I won't let you go there in vain."

Qi Dashan's face flushed. "No, no, I, I just think of it as coming to Brother Jiang to wish him a happy new year----"

This is a good man who doesn't want to take advantage of others.
