188 “Zhao’s Daughter [NP]” Chapter 187

Chapter 186 Talking behind the back

When the night banquet came to an end, everyone left the banquet one after another, agreeing to go to the back mountain to soak in the hot spring.

After Zhao Shuyu suffered the fright in the afternoon, she didn’t really want to go.

But as soon as she returned to the yard, she saw a figure moving behind the rockery in the small garden in the yard.

She was startled and stopped moving forward.

But not long after, he heard a slight sound coming from behind the rockery. Zhao Shuyu listened attentively and immediately blushed.

This small courtyard has only three wing rooms, where she and Gao Qinxue lived, as well as the maids Xing’er and Xiao Tao they brought with them.

Two maids lived in the same room, but they were not in the yard at this time.

Zhao Shuyu listened for a moment and then understood who was having fun behind the rockery.

It was embarrassing to stay. Zhao Shuyu thought about it for a while, then turned and left the small courtyard.

However, before they had gone far, they met little Myolie. Myolie had already prepared the things needed for bathing in the back mountain.

So Zhao Shuyu decisively took Xiao Xing’er all the way to the back hill, leaving the yard to the brother and sister who were busy making firewood.

A quarter of an hour later, we arrived at the back mountain. Traveling at night was much more difficult than during the day.

Although there are stone lanterns burning on the roadside, the fog is thick at night. The closer you get to the hot spring on the mountain, the more you can see the flowers in the fog, everything is hazy and the scenery is blurry.

After entering the Tangquan Gate, there are many more stone lanterns, but the fog is also thicker.

There are already servants from the village waiting at the door. The women go to one place and the men go to another.

Natural pools are not shared. Even if you can hear the sound of water and people not far away, you can’t see people through the fences and trees.

Zhao Shuyu changed her clothes in a small thatched hut, put on a thin singlet, picked a small pond a little far away, and entered the pond.

As soon as she entered the water, she felt warm and comfortable all over her body. She squinted her eyes with a look of enjoyment on her face, feeling boundless and comfortable.

However, within half a quarter of an hour, several more female voices came from far away and came closer.

It was the sisters from the Gao family who also came to Tangchi.

Not long after, the three women who came behind changed their clothes and entered the slightly larger pool on the other side.

As soon as the women sat down, they started chatting.

Zhao Shuyu was sitting in the small pool behind the big pool. It was inconvenient to get up immediately, so she soaked in silence. However, not long after, she heard the women chatting about their own affairs.

“Hey, the third brother of the Zhao family is so handsome, but it’s hard to get close to him.”

This very familiar voice was Gao Ling’er, the cousin of the Gao family who took the initiative to talk to Zhao Shuyu at the dinner not long ago.

At this time, someone asked her, “Didn’t you just talk to Miss Zhao Si for a long time and didn’t find out anything?”

“She…” Suddenly, Gao Ling’er deliberately lengthened her voice, “She is quite lucky. She was spoiled by her brothers and turned into a fool. She doesn’t understand anything I ask her.”

These words caused the other two women to burst into laughter, and one of them said: “Sister Ling’er, look at what you said, maybe she will still be your sister-in-law in the future.”

And another woman added: “I heard that my aunt has taken a liking to Miss Zhao Si. I wonder if you will call her cousin in the future.”

“Hmph, who wants to call her cousin?”

Gao Ling’er seemed to be quite disdainful. Not long after, the three women turned the topic to Zhao Muqing. After admiring their little daughter, who could only be seen from a distance and not played with, they even praised Huo Yikun a few times.

I despise the fact that all the stewards in my house are bad old men.

Not long after, someone suggested that we continue soaking in another pool.

The three women stood up happily and walked around to the small soup pool at the back.

This is the place where Zhao Shuyu stayed not long ago, and by this time, people had gone to Chikong.
