Chapter 889: Why Are There So Many Frogs?!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Nuo’er and Gu Zixiao walked to the backyard.
There were a few nearby houses here.
Apart from the bathroom that Gu Rao had just entered, there was a room next to it where the cries of the deposed prince, Gu Yongxuan, could be faintly heard.
In an instant, he went from a noble to a commoner.
The psychological difference was definitely not small.
For some reason, when they heard Gu Yongxuan’s cries, the little frogs in the basket immediately croaked even more happily.
“What’s that sound?” The deposed princess consort’s puzzled voice sounded in the room.
Gu Zixiao quickly picked up his sister and hid in another room.
Fortunately, there was no one in this room.
Gu Nuo’er lowered her head, raised her finger to her lips, and said to the basket. “Shh! Quiet!”
The little frogs immediately stopped crying.
Through the gap in the door frame, Gu Zixiao saw the deposed Princess Consort Guang running out of the room with a swollen face.
She looked around and frowned in confusion. “I clearly heard sounds just now…”
Perhaps thinking that she had heard wrongly, she returned to the room.
Gu Nuo’er looked up and called out in a soft voice, “Brother, I suddenly thought of a problem-”
“What problem?”
“Oh, I don’t know which room is Gu Rao’s.”
Gu Zixiao turned around.
The room they were in was simple.
First, he excluded Gu Yongxuan and his wife, who were already in the next room.
This room either belonged to Grand Consort Yu or Gu Rao.
While Gu Zixiao was deep in thought, Gu Nuo’er said in a relaxed voice, “I don’t care anymore. It doesn’t matter whose room it is. Anyway, they’re the ones who will be scared!”
As she spoke, the child carried the basket and walked to the bed inside.
She turned the basket upside down and shook it. The ten little frogs immediately fell onto the blanket.
Gu Nuo’er squatted down and whispered to them, “Stay here, and don’t run around. Help me vent my anger later!”
Gu Zixiao didn’t know what method his sister had used to make these frogs listen.
Not a single little frog jumped around and all of them lay obediently on the blanket.
Gu Nuo’er put away the basket and said to Gu Zixiao, “Alright, Brother, let’s go find a place to stay. We’ll be able to watch a good show later!”
However, at this moment, Gu Rao’s voice suddenly sounded from the door.
“These damned servants in the palace who revere those in power and look down on those without! They are so slow when just asked to boil some water!”
Seeing that she was about to push open the door and enter, Gu Nuo’er quickly moved her small feet and hid behind a hanging curtain.
It was by the bed!
Gu Zixiao was tall and had nowhere to hide!
He frowned. At the critical moment, Gu Zixiao quickly walked to the window and left in a flash.
When Gu Rao pushed open the door and entered, the window happened to be closed, so she didn’t notice anything amiss.
She soaked a handkerchief in the copper basin in the room with cold water and wiped her forehead several times.
Gu Rao bit her lip and complained, “Ever since I came to the capital, nothing good has happened. This place must be my nemesis!”
After she is married to Ye Siming, she will stay at Ye Siming’s house!
She wouldn’t come to the palace even if she was invited to do so!
After this ordeal, Gu Rao felt rather tired. She walked to the bed and wanted to lie down for a while.
Unexpectedly, just as she approached, she saw a group of little frogs lying evenly on the blanket!
Their green skin was bright and dazzling, and their black bean eyes stared at
Gu Rao.
They suddenly let out a series of croaks.
“Ah—I” Gu Rao’s scream resounded through the clouds.
She fell to the ground on her butt and then scrambled out of the room. “This is too disgusting! Someone, come quickly!” Gu Rao exclaimed along the way..
