Chapter 15: Sachets

"If it's too expensive, don't buy it, return it to me!" The man said scoundrelly, reaching out to pull the hairpin on Li Guan's head. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Oops! What are you doing, do it! Wang Manqing protected Li Guan behind him, took out ten cents from his purse and slapped it on his stall, "Just ten cents!" ”

The man's face changed, and he walked out from behind the stall: "Hmph, what's the matter, I won't sell it, you still want to grab it?" A few people from the stall next to him also gathered around.

"What a robbery, we paid for it!" Wang Manqing saw this situation and knew that he had met a bully, so he replied to him, grabbed Li Wan and turned around and ran away.

"Stop!" The man wanted to take the opportunity to knock on a stroke, but the duck in his hand flew away, and he jumped to his feet in anger and immediately chased after him.

Li Guan was dragged around in the crowd, not mentally prepared at all, and accidentally, the things in his hand fell to the ground.

"Leave that alone! Let's run first! Wang Manqing shouted.

After running for two streets, the two of them were so tired that they leaned against the side of the street and gasped.

"Hahaha!" Wang Manqing suddenly laughed, pointed at Li Guan and said, "You have grown so big, haven't you been so embarrassed?" ”

Li Guan thought about it, and it was true, even when she was at the lowest ebb of her life, she was not chased by someone on the street like this. However, the embarrassment is embarrassing, but it feels very refreshing. She couldn't help but laugh, her eyes shining.

"They're there!"

There was a sudden shout from behind, and Wang Manqing came back to take a look: "They are catching up, run!" ”

The two of them didn't have enough popularity, and they started running again, Wang Manqing seemed to think it was funny, laughing while running, and Li Wan was full of black lines.

It's not a problem to run like this, if you don't want to find the officers and soldiers patrolling the city, or just point it out and let the secret guards get rid of the people...... Li Wan couldn't help but muttered in his heart.

Since she was robbed last time, as long as she goes out, she will be protected by secret guards, otherwise she would not let Manqing come today.

There were a lot of people on the street, and Li Guan didn't pay much attention to what was going on, so he bumped into someone carelessly. She didn't have any strength left, and she suddenly bared her teeth in pain.

Li Guan's body shook and almost didn't stand firm, but fortunately someone helped her. Before she came back to her senses, Wang Manqing was already pleasantly surprised: "Brother Gu! ”

What Brother Gu? Li Guan rubbed his nose and looked up, and the corners of his mouth twitched invisibly. This world is really small, just running blindly on the street, you can meet acquaintances.

It turned out that the person she bumped into was the one she had seen at the birthday banquet two days ago, Gu Chengyu.

She lowered her head slightly, trying not to attract attention.

Wang Manqing was obviously very happy: "Brother Gu, I didn't expect to meet you here!" ”

"I'm here to find a friend." Gu Chengyu was still that gentle, and then asked, "What's going on, what are you running?" ”

"Here's the thing." Wang Manqing immediately changed to an indignant look, "We were buying something on the street just now, and the person who sold the thing wanted to extort money, and I saw that they were outnumbered, so I ran away!" ”

"What's that?"

"No, it's just that wooden hairpin." She pointed to the hairpin on Li Guan's head.

Li Wan couldn't pretend to be transparent anymore, so he had to nod at Gu Chengyu, with a little embarrassment in his expression: "Gu Gongzi." ”

Gu Chengyu recognized Li Guan at a glance just now, and smiled at her when he heard the words: "Miss Li." But a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He didn't look carefully just now, but now he found that Li Guan looked very different from last time, wearing a plain bean green skirt, with delicate white jasmine embroidered on the neckline and cuffs, and a pearl bead flower and the wooden hairpin on his head, low-key and gorgeous. Xu is running just now, a few wisps of green silk fell on his ears, his face was a little ruddy, his big eyes were black and white, and standing there with a smile and a silent smile gave people a sense of slimness......

These thoughts flashed, and he quickly looked away, and was about to ask where the people serving beside them were, when several strong men with menacing momentum had already run towards them.

Wang Manqing looked at it and immediately said, "Brother Gu, it's those people!" ”

Gu Chengyu looked over when he heard this, and took a few steps forward to block Li Guan and Wang Manqing behind him.

After just a few breaths, those people had already arrived in front of them, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised to see a few more people around the two girls.

"Who are you? If you are interested, hurry up and get out of my way, don't get in the way of Uncle Ben! The man at the head saw that Gu Chengyu was just a powerless son, and there were only two guards by his side, so he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Gu Chengyu's eyes lit up, and he said lightly: "Take it." ”

"Yes!" The two guards behind him responded respectfully and flew past to shoot at the men.

The movements of the two of them were fast and ruthless, and in three or five strokes, those people were beaten all over the ground looking for teeth, unable to move, and lying on the ground one by one**.

People on the street gathered around to see the excitement, and the guards patrolling the city heard the news.

When the leader saw Gu Chengyu, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "It turned out to be Gu Gongzi!" He hesitated, "...... you are?"

Gu Chengyu had already regained his smiling appearance: "A few little minions, I have to trouble you to deal with it." ”

The leading escort turned his mind, smiled and said, "Little understand", and then shouted, "Bring them all back to the Yamen!" ”

Several of the guards stepped forward and tied the men with ropes.

"Thank you." Gu Chengyu nodded at him, turned around and said to Li Guan, "Let's go." ”

A few people walked through the crowd of onlookers and along the side of the street.

"How can you go out alone and serve the people?"

The two of them looked at each other, but neither spoke.

Gu Chengyu immediately understood, and didn't say anything, just asked where they were, and then ordered the guards around him to inform them.

"You two don't run around." Gu Chengyu said in a deep voice, "It just so happens that I'm going to Manxianglou to find friends, so you can join me." ”

Wang Manqing was not interested in Manxianglou at all, but he had just caused trouble, so he didn't want to say anything more, so he agreed.

Li Wan didn't want to trouble others, but she came out with Manqing, and she couldn't leave her alone, so she acquiesced to Gu Chengyu's proposal and went to Manxianglou with him.

On the road, Wang Manqing was like a happy bird, chattering about what he saw on the street.

Gu Chengyu always listened with a smile on his face, and asked from time to time. He glanced at Li Guan with his spare eyes, and she had been walking silently beside her, her curvaceous side face just facing him.

"The snacks tasted great, they were completely different from what we made at home, and we bought a lot of knick-knacks." Wang Manqing was still talking, and his face suddenly showed a little disappointment, "It's a pity that I just ran just now, and I didn't have time to pick up ...... if I fell off."

Gu Chengyu said casually, "Wait a while, send a little girl to buy", and then looked at Li Guan casually: "Miss Li doesn't go out often?" ”

Li Wan didn't know why he suddenly asked about this, so he said ambiguously: "I'm not in good health, and my parents don't let me go out much." ”

"I see." He nodded knowingly, "The last time we met, I was still strange in my heart, our two families are relatives, Brother Ling and Brother Ling are quite familiar to me, but I have never seen you." ”

"I've lived in another courtyard for many years, and occasionally I come back and go to my uncle's house, so I guess I haven't met it."

"The last time I met Brother Ling at my aunt's house, he seemed to have said something like 'my sister is back', referring to you, right?"

Li Wan smiled and nodded, and suddenly remembered the Xun he gave to Zhu'er, so he said: "Zhi'er told us everything that day, thank you for sending Xun to him." ”

"It's just a Xun, you're welcome." Gu Chengyu said lightly, with a smile flowing in his eyes, "Brother Ling is very cute and talented. ”

Li Guan was about to receive a sentence of "false praise", Wang Manqing was already surprised: "You sent Xun to Guan'er's younger brother?" Is it the Tao Xun with the monkey painted? ”

Gu Chengyu didn't care much about the "um".

Wang Manqing's eyes widened in surprise.

Li Wan glanced at her suspiciously, there is no need to be so surprised, isn't it normal to give a gadget to coax a child. Wang Manqing saw her expression and knew that she didn't understand the reason, and just wanted to explain it to her, Gu Chengyu had already changed the topic.

"Miss Li, how do you know that my mother likes plum blossoms?"

Li Wan was surprised when he heard this, but it was just a word on his whim, but he didn't expect him to remember it.

Wang Manqing's eyes blinked, and he suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes, I also remember." Last time, you did ask Brother Gu if his mother liked plum blossoms. She frowned lightly and asked Gu Chengyu, "Brother Gu, does my aunt really like plum blossoms?" I don't even know. ”

Gu Chengyu nodded: "Yes, but very few people know about it." The eyes that looked at Li Wan were meaningful, and the smile became softer and softer: "So I'm curious, where did Miss Li know?" ”

His mother lives in a simple house on weekdays, almost never interacts with people, even his aunt, Mrs. Wu Anbo, doesn't know about his mother Ximei, how can she, a young lady raised in a deep boudoir, know? Did she have people investigate? If so, then he had to doubt her intentions.

Gu Chengyu's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness.

Li Wan did not ignore the different colors in Gu Chengyu's eyes.

Suspect me of ulterior motives? She felt a little funny, she and him were only half relatives, and they only met for the second time today, could they have any intentions against him for no reason, and he was too proud of himself.

Thinking like this, there was a little sarcasm in her eyes, which made Gu Chengyu, who had been paying attention to her, stagnate.

Li Guan didn't want to explain more, anyway, she and Gu Chengyu were just nodding friends, and his opinion didn't matter to her at all. But his father is an official in the court, and he is considered a subordinate of Gu Gelao, if Gu Chengyu doubts his father's character because of this, and mentions it in front of his grandfather, it will not hurt his father.

Thinking of this, she had to laugh and say, "Because of it." ”

Gu Chengyu followed her gaze and saw the sachet on his waist, which was embroidered with the pattern of snow pressing plum branches. He couldn't help but stop, and his face showed surprise: "Just based on the pattern on the sachet, how do you know that it is my mother who likes plum blossoms and not me?" ”
