Master of the Mulberry Gate [34]

The wind penetrated into the room, causing the pages on the table to turn over and rattle. A cluster of wild chrysanthemums swayed on the table, and fresh water droplets rolled on the petals.

The mute man changed into a dark blue robe, his thin body trembled slightly, the sweat of the bean rolled down his face, dripping on the paper, the ink blurred the lines, he quickly put down the pen and bent down to dry it.

But as soon as he bent over, he frowned in pain. His left hand was broken, and his body was covered in bruises, but he insisted on drawing a portrait of Guo'er's mother with his own hands.

"Master, you rest." Guo'er wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.

The mute man raised his eyes, gave her a gentle look, and continued to paint.

"This is your mother? It's beautiful. Yu Yan walked over with a tea bowl, glanced at the portrait, and nodded in admiration.

The painting depicts a woman's goose egg face, apricot eyes, long eyebrows, gentle eyebrows, and a beautiful smile.

"Am I like my mother?" Guo'er pursed her lips and smiled.

"There are six points of resemblance." Yu Yan nodded.

The dumb man twisted his eyebrows, and the pen was lightly touched on the eyebrows of Guo'er's mother.

"Mole?" Yu Yan asked curiously.

Guo'er stopped smiling, biting her lip, and watched the dumb man slowly draw the point, which turned out to be a small word.

The prince tattooed a yin character on the forehead of Guo'er's mother!

Yu Yan put down the tea bowl, took the pen from the mute man's hand, scribbled the word, and whispered, "I'll confess and draw another one." ”

The mute man's eyes turned red, and he took another piece of paper and redrew it.

"Did you cut your tongue by the prince?" Yu Yan sat down on the side, looked at the dumb man's scarred face and asked.

The mute man nodded.

"How long have you been separated from Qianniang?" Yu Yan asked again.

The mute man was silent for a while, and then wrote on the piece of paper where he drew the waste: Ten years, three months, and eleven days.

Yu Yan nodded clearly, Guo'er was five years old at that time, and she had an impression of the dumb man, so the dumb man helped her escape from the sedan chair and went to Houqingguo together to find Qianniang.

But Yu Yan couldn't figure it out a little, how did the master of the Mulberry Gate know that Guo'er was the little county lord and that she had a magical silver bracelet in her hand?

"I stole this silver bracelet from my father, and I was supposed to steal the token and get out of the customs. I also had this silver bracelet in the box, so I took it with me. Guo'er explained.

"Have you seen it before?" Yu Yan asked in a low voice.

Guo'er shook her head slightly, thought for a while, and said, "At that time, there was a dark brown brocade bag in it, and there was a letter, but I didn't have time to read the letter, so I only took the bracelet and the token and ran away. ”

"How do you know how to use it?" Yu Yan became more and more strange.

Guo'er pointed at the mute man, blinked his big eyes and said, "The master taught me." ”

The mute man turned his head and showed Yu Yan the written words, which were lined up: The door master shows.

There are quite a few things that the master of this Sangmen Gate knows!

The mute man drew a new portrait and handed it to Yu Yan, so tired that he sat on the chair and gasped.

Guo'er brought him the tea bowl, carefully held his severed hand, and asked, "Master, does it matter?" ”

The mute man looked at her with gentle eyes, took out the square brocade from his arms with his right hand, and held it in front of his eyes and looked at it obsessively.

"This handkerchief is very new, it is clearly embroidered recently, which means that Qianniang is still very safe, and you two don't have to worry too much." Yu Yan got up and said softly: "Your companion, I have already let people out, you rest first, and I will arrange the search for the person." ”

"Thank you, Sister Yu." Guo'er gratefully sent her out.

"Guo'er, what did your master teach you, why do you call him master?" Yu Yan asked casually.

"Fishing, catching shrimp, growing vegetables, collecting medicine, hunting pheasants and rabbits, ah, and playing the flute." Guo'er scratched her neck and said with a smile: "Actually, after my mother was sold, although the master was looking for it outside, he would go back to me every year and bring me some fun and delicious food." I wanted to follow him for a long time, but the nurse was old, and I couldn't leave her. If it weren't for my ruthless grandfather marrying me to a bad old man, I wouldn't have been able to ruthlessly abandon the nurse and run to Houqingguo. ”

"Go and accompany your master, I'm leaving, and when I see the master of the Mulberry Gate today, I will definitely help you find your mother." Yu Yan patted her on the shoulder, turned around and left.

"Sister Yu, the people who took the Sangmen are terrible, you must be careful." Guo'er chased after a few steps, took the knife from his belt, and gave it to Yu Yan, "This knife was bought by the master for my self-defense, it is very small, you can wear it on your head as a hairpin, or you can bend it into a bracelet and wear it on your hand, I'll give it to you." ”

"How can I be embarrassed to accept such a good thing?" Yu Yan was holding the knife, laughing in her mouth, but she tucked the knife into her belt.

"Sister Yu, after finding her mother, no matter what she becomes, tell her that the master and I are waiting for her here." Guo'er escorted her to the gate of the courtyard and waved at her.

"Let's go back." Yu Yan nodded.

Guo'er is very lucky, whether it is Qianniang, Hao Lei, or the nurse who takes care of her, she has not instilled hatred in Guo'er, although she is bullied by the people of the palace, her heart has always been full of sunshine, never complaining, and she is not hateful. She is a sunflower chasing the sun, leaving all the darkness behind.

Yu Yan likes this kind of fruit.

There is also this mute man, who has been infatuated with each other for more than ten years, especially for the enemy's daughter Guo'er, who can also sincerely care for him, and he is really a rare good person in the world.

She turned her head to look, and saw him standing in front of the window looking this way, and when she saw her eyes raised, she twisted her eyebrows and turned her face away.

"Master
