his robbery

Chapter 17 Hit a Wall

Although Bai Mani saw Gu Chengxi as a ridiculous country bumpkin, but because he had saved Huo Xiangzhen's life, even though he laughed loudly, he actually regarded him as a good person in his heart.Bai Mani doesn't know how to win people's hearts, Huo Xiangzhen treats him as a treasure, but the people around Huo Xiangzhen only recognize Ma Congrong.There is no capable person around him, and the driver who drives a car is from the Bai family. Unfortunately, he knows nothing except driving a car and cannot be used at all.So seeing Gu Chengxi suddenly at this moment, he was overjoyed, as if he had met a savior.

Like calling a dog, he yelled at Gu Chengxi in front of him.Grabbing Gu Chengxi's hand, he turned around and walked back to the courtyard of Huo Mansion.Gu Chengxi couldn't figure it out, and didn't know if he was qualified to cross the threshold of the Huo Mansion: "Master Bai, what do you want from me?"

While walking quickly, Bai Mani asked without looking back, "Little Gu, have you ever had a rash?"

Gu Chengxi immediately used his brain: "Rash?"

He didn't know if he had a rash, he didn't remember it, he couldn't remember it, but he didn't tell the truth, so he asked instead: "Master Bai, who has a rash?"

Bai Mani tightly clutched his wrist, his slender fingers were soaked with sweat, and the branches were cold and greasy: "It's brother! I have never had a rash. Ma Congrong said that rashes are contagious, so I am not allowed to go upstairs to see He! If you are not afraid, you can look at him for me!"

At this point, he turned his head abruptly, his watery eyes really watered: "Xiao Gu, is rash a very dangerous disease? I don't know, do you know?"

Gu Chengxi's face also faded blood: "It seems... quite powerful."

After hearing his answer, Bai Mani let out a trembling "ah" with a crying voice.

Bai Mani led Gu Chengxi all the way to the front of the small building.He pushed Gu Chengxi towards the door of the building without any seriousness, and he shouted with red eyes: "He has had a rash before, so he can enter the building."

This voice attracted Ma Congrong again.Seeing Gu Chengxi unexpectedly, Ma Congrong was startled: "Why are you here?"

Bai Mani was afraid that Ma Congrong would stand in his way again, so he offered to support Gu Chengxi: "He is my plenipotentiary representative! I am afraid of infection, so I cannot enter; he is not afraid of infection, let him enter for me!"

Ma Congrong stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, and quietly glanced at Gu Chengxi.This glance has no strength, but it has content, which makes people confused.Gu Chengxi noticed it immediately, and immediately showed a stupid face of being at a loss, deliberately looked at Bai Mani, then at Ma Congrong, and raised his hand to scratch his head.

Ma Congrong withdrew his gaze, and his white face with frost gradually returned to sunshine.Smiling at Bai Mani, he answered, "Okay, then let Master Gu go in and have a look at the handsome man. Tell Young Master Bai when you see clearly, so that Young Master Bai won't worry."

Then he nodded to Gu Chengxi, turned around and walked back into the building.Gu Chengxi was about to follow, but Bai Mani pushed his back hard again: "Hurry up!"

Gu Chengxi didn't care about his slender arms and strength, but he staggered along with the strength, and he went up the steps quite embarrassed.

After chasing Ma Congrong for two steps, he heard Ma Congrong turn his back to him and said, "Master Gu and Young Master Bai also have friendship?"

Gu Chengxi went ahead and replied: "Adjutant Ma, I am also confused! In Tianjin, I worked as an attendant for Young Master Bai for two days. Later, he thought I was embarrassing for him, so he asked me to go back to Beijing with the Military Supply Department. You have not been here for two days. When I got home, I thought about walking around to see if I could meet you. I didn't know that I was stopped by Young Master Bai when I showed up at the intersection. I heard that the commander has a rash? Isn't it just for children? Rash? Adults get it too?"

Hearing what he said, Ma Congrong felt a little more comfortable: "Who said it wasn't! I didn't expect the commander-in-chief to suffer from this disease."

Gu Chengxi followed Ma Congrong closely.Ma Congrong is tall and slender, with long legs, and usually looks slow, but once he speeds up, he can walk against the wind and fly on grass.From time to time, young orderlies passed by from downstairs to upstairs. Ma Congrong said as he walked, "Now the doctor can't help. Don't dare to use medicine. If the medicine is used too hard, the rash will not come out, and it will be more dangerous."

Then, he stopped in front of the bedroom door.With one hand on the doorknob, he turned to face Gu Chengxi.Putting a finger to his lips, he "hush": "Keep quiet and don't disturb the commander."

Seeing that Gu Chengxi nodded in earnest understanding, Ma Congrong slowly exerted force on his hand to slowly retract the copper tongue of the spring lock.When he shrunk to the end, he gently pushed the door inward.When Gu Chengxi was at the door, he felt a depressing hot air blowing against his face, mixed with the bitter taste of medicine.And on a big bed against the wall, Huo Xiangzhen was lying quietly with her eyes closed.

Ma Congrong tiptoed in, and he followed suit with the steps of a thief.As he got closer and closer silently, he saw Huo Xiangzhen more and more clearly.Seeing it in his eyes, his eyes were red.

He saw that his face was blushing, his face was swollen and out of outline, and his breathing was so weak that it was inaudible.He stopped in front of the bed, and in front of Ma Congrong, he restrained himself from speaking or acting rashly.Staring fixedly at Huo Xiangzhen's face, he pursed his lips into a straight line, trying not to make a sound.

There are a few small fire wine stoves on the ground next to the bed. I don’t know what kind of medicine is gurgling in the small pots. In short, there are a lot of holes in the lid of the pots, allowing the steam to rise and diffuse.Ma Congrong dipped a small handkerchief in water and carefully wiped Huo Xiangzhen's eyelids and lips.Putting one hand on the side of the pillow, he blatantly bent over and put his cheek against Huo Xiangzhen, then reached into the collar of Huo Xiangzhen's pajamas, and touched his chest meticulously.After sticking and touching, he straightened up and sighed, "It's still hot."

Gu Chengxi didn't dare to look him in the face, because he remembered the rumors outside.Gu Chengxi could control his hands and mouth, but he couldn't control his eyes.He knew that Ma Congrong was a fine person, who could see into people's hearts from eyes to people's hearts.

"Is the commander asleep?" He lowered his head and asked Ma Congrong.

Ma Congrong shook his head: "Why did you fall asleep? It's because you've got a fever."

Gu Chengxi also sighed, with anxiety and fear on his face: "Adjutant Ma, what do you think I can do? I... I am also good at serving people. If you don't trust me, you can assign me some rough work."

Ma Congrong looked at Huo Xiangzhen noncommittally, thinking that if he relaxed for a while, this kid might be won over by Bai Mani.Bai Mani, relatives or friends or not, dare to spend years in the mansion as the master, what the hell!

Thinking of this, he raised his hand and pointed to the small fire wine stove on the ground: "Master Gu, that small pot is full of medicine for rashes. You look at the pot and the fire, and let the medicine vapor fume you. It's not tiring, but it's quite greasy."

Gu Chengxi nodded quickly: "It's okay, I'm very good at this job. Don't worry, I won't be lazy. Just wait, I'll go downstairs and talk to Young Master Bai, and I'll be right back!"

Ma Congrong raised his chin: "Go, walk lightly."

Gu Chengxi left, but Ma Congrong did not.After wringing out a warm towel, he wanted to wipe Huo Xiangzhen's hands again.But before he could do anything, Huo Xiangzhen suddenly opened his eyes.

Huo Xiangzhen woke up without warning.Turning his eyes to look around the bedroom, he saw that the bedroom was empty and dim, and there was only one Ma Congrong guarding the bed.No family, no relatives, only one Ma Congrong.His dry and chapped lips moved, and he asked a bit angrily, "Where's Mani?"

Ma Congrong approached him and whispered in his ear: "Young Master Bai just came here. He hasn't had a rash, so I dare not let him into the building. He has nothing to do, maybe he left again."

Huo Xiangzhen was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Going away?"

Ma Congrong straightened his short hair with his fingers: "I haven't seen him for a long time, so I think he must have left."

Huo Xiangzhen closed her eyes: "Add a quilt to me, it's cold."

Ma Congrong really covered him with another layer, took another small cup of boiled water, and fed him bit by bit with a small spoon: "Master, don't be afraid, I will take care of you. Measles is fierce at the beginning and comes out Enough."

Huo Xiangzhen looked at him with half-opened eyes: "You?"

Ma Congrong smiled, sat down on the edge of the bed, lowered his body, and said in a low voice, "Isn't I the uncle's Shangqing Wan? With me here, Uncle Bao can calm down all his anger."

Huo Xiangzhen closed her eyes again, as if she didn't bother to smile, but the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and she still smiled.

After drinking a few sips of water, Huo Xiangzhen fell into a deep sleep again.While he was sleeping, Gu Chengxi came back.He really became Bai Mani's representative in Huo Mansion. Starting today, he had to go downstairs every morning and afternoon to inform Bai Mani of Huo Xiangzhen's condition.

Squatting on the ground and guarding the wine stove, he lowered his head and glanced at Ma Congrong's feet from the corner of his eyes.Like a ghost, Ma Congrong came out and went in silently, coming and going without a trace.

On the third day of the rash, he finally waited for the opportunity.An Rushan heard that the commander-in-chief had developed a rash, so he came to visit him.Ma Congrong had to show up to deal with it, so he handed Gu Chengxi the towel in his hand.As soon as the bedroom door was closed, Gu Chengxi stood up clutching the towel, and tentatively walked towards the big bed.

He boldly took Huo Xiangzhen's hand on the bedside.The fingers gradually closed. This grip was really long gone.

Silently mouthing, he looked at Huo Xiangzhen and called out, "Peace."

Huo Xiangzhen had been drowsy all this time, but at this moment, she seemed to have reacted, and muttered something in her mouth.Gu Chengxi hastily leaned over to listen, but he heard it clearly for a moment, but felt a chill in his heart.

What Huo Xiangzhen called out was the word "little brother".

Straightening up resentfully, he took Huo Xiangzhen's hand and brought it to his lips for a kiss.Although Huo Xiangzhen was bedridden all the time, Ma Congrong kept her clean.After the kiss, she lowered her eyes and looked at his hand carefully.The hand is like a human being, and it also has the meaning of being handsome, only the index finger has a thin layer of calluses, which is the mark of a gun that has been used for a long time.Just watching, Huo Xiangzhen moved again - he slowly held Gu Chengxi's hand.

Gu Chengxi didn't know if the person he wanted to catch was himself, but he couldn't help himself, and he said, "Safe?"

As soon as these words came out, Huo Xiangzhen suddenly opened his eyes.He stared straight at Gu Chengxi who was beside the bed, his eyes were blank at first, then his pupils gradually brightened, he sat up straight up as if fascinated.

Gu Chengxi was really frightened by him, and hurriedly raised his hand and pushed his shoulder: "Peace, lie down, you can't see the wind now!" He couldn't help but push Huo Xiangzhen back on the bed: "Hey, don't move, please don't move ..."

He was so anxious that he couldn't speak coherently, and Huo Xiangzhen sank into the quilt in a trance, his shoulders were pressed tightly by Gu Chengxi.Under the two dark sword eyebrows, his eyes glared, and he asked hoarsely, "Gu Chengxi, what are you doing?"

After all, Gu Chengxi is not a well-trained slave, and he doesn't realize that his actions can be called overstepping and offending.He was worried and didn't dare to let go: "I, I...I want to wipe your hands and face. You've been lying down for a long time, it must be comfortable to wipe. Don't be afraid, I...I will be careful. "

Huo Xiangzhen was already dying of illness, but now she was pinned down by the person she feared the most.Turning his head to face the door in a dizzy state, he shouted hysterically: "Ma Congrong!"

Gu Chengxi let go of his hand in an instant as if frightened.At the same time, the door of the room opened in response, and Ma Congrong just heard Huo Xiangzhen's last roar, and his face turned pale with shock: "Master, what's wrong?"

Huo Xiangzhen began to pant violently, looking at Ma Congrong, he barely raised a hand to point to Gu Chengxi: "Let him go... let him go..."

Ma Congrong was puzzled, but immediately gave Gu Chengxi a wink: "Let's go!"

Gu Chengxi stood up silently, turned around and left.

After leaving the bedroom and entering the corridor, he leaned against the wall and took a deep breath, then looked down at his hands.His hands are very clean - he has learned how to be hygienic now, especially when he enters the door of the Huo Mansion, especially when he wants to squat in a safe room as a slave, he can't wait to peel off his old skin.

Breathing out a breath of cold air with a half-smile, he asked himself: "Am I fucking shit? I can't even touch it, I can't even look at it? I'm going to order Ma Congrong, I don't even deserve to listen to him?"

Gu Chengxi lowered his hands and wiped his pants back and forth repeatedly, and sneered as he wiped.In fact, the noble commander-in-chief was not a sweet pastry. He was soaked in sweat, smoked in medicinal soup, and covered in thick blankets for several days in a row.The sour, bitter and stinky Superintendent has no right to despise him!
