When Wei Zhongliang rushed into the room, he saw Wei Rou crying in Gu Xi's arms, and Gu Xi was still comforting her.

This scene doesn't look like being bullied either.

Wei Zhongliang was holding the broom in his hand, wondering whether to throw it over or not.

Xu Shi heard Wei Zhongliang's movements, Wei Rou's crying became softer, she lay in Gu Xi's arms, showing a pair of wet and red eyes on his shoulders.

"Second uncle... you... why are you here?"

Wei Zhongliang choked.

I said in my heart that I didn't hear you crying here and thought you were being bullied and came here to support you.

Now it seems that is not the case.

Wei Rou also realized that Wei Zhongliang had misunderstood, buried her head in Gu Xi's shoulder and wiped away her tears, then whispered, "Second Uncle, I'm fine, don't worry about it."

Wei Zhongliang silently put away the broom in his hand and coughed lightly twice.

"It's okay, it's okay."

After Wei Zhongliang finished speaking, he turned and walked out.

After he left, Wei Rou realized that she had made too much noise and felt a little embarrassed.

"Am I crying too loudly?"

There was still some tremor in Wei Rou's voice.

Gu Xi held her face, lowered his head and kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"It's nothing. Cry if you want to. In front of me, you don't have to bear it."

Wei Rou's eyelashes trembled.

Gu Xi said again: "Just Rou'er, can you tell me why you are crying?"

Wei Rou buried her face in his arms and hugged his waist tightly.

A muffled voice came from Gu Xi's arms.

"You treat me so well, I don't know how to respond to your kindness."

Gu Xi was startled.

Then he smiled and stroked Wei Rou's back.

"Since you married me as a wife, it is my duty as a husband to treat you well."

Wei Rou shook her head frantically.

No, that's not the case.

Even if she didn't notice him at all in the previous life, he still treated her heart and soul like that, standing silently in the dark to protect her.

Gu Xi sighed softly, and hugged Wei Rou in his arms even tighter.

"Rou'er, you just need to know that I will never let anyone hurt you, not even me."

Wei Rou bit her lower lip tightly, and couldn't help the tears streaming down her face. She nodded with tears in her eyes.

Gu Xi lowered his eyes, and in his mind, when he was in the General's Mansion a long time ago, there was a piece of rice paper on the desk in the study, with a few small characters on hairpin flowers written on it.

True and false banknotes.

……

Because she cried a lot in the afternoon and was humiliated in front of Wei Zhongliang, Wei Rou didn't dare to go out for dinner.

Wei Zhongliang also guessed what Wei Rou was thinking, and ordered someone to deliver the food to the yard.

Seeing that Wei Rou's eyes were swollen from crying, Gu Xi had no choice but to let Ling Yun go to the back kitchen to fetch hot eggs.

Wei Rou was lying on Gu Xi's lap, eyes closed, enjoying the treatment of the general personally applying hot eggs, her posture was a little comfortable.

Seeing her lazy appearance, Gu Xi's eyes were full of doting.

"By the way, what did Zhao Yong come to see the second uncle for today? Do you know?"

Wei Rou opened one eye and looked at Gu Xi playfully.

Gu Xi laughed.

"Rou'er might as well guess."

Wei Rou murmured: "He suffered a great loss in my bookstore this morning, and broke up with the daughter of Duke Lin's mansion. It is impossible for him to come to Duke Lin. When he was cornered, he could only find someone from the Ax Gang Going to the bank to kill people and silence them, it's a pity that I met you, and now he has no right-hand man. In desperation..."

Wei Rou paused: "I can only ask Second Uncle for help."

It's a pity that even the second uncle looked down on him and kicked him out.

How should Zhao Yong solve the predicament now?
