After sending them away, Nian Yun didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he led a horse from the stable, and took the green pothos and a small servant out to find Guo Yan. Nian Yun didn't know where to look, so he first went to Qiyue Tower, where Xue Chu'er used to live, to inquire about Xue Chu'er's whereabouts.

The bustard of the Qiyue Building said: "Earlier, there was also a handsome Lang Jun who inquired about her, but what is the reason? ”

Nian Yun smiled: "Earlier, I thought it was my brother, but there was nothing important, but I don't know if my brother found her." Does Mom know where they went? ”

The bustard just laughed. Nian Yun ordered the little girl to give her a string of money, and said, "Mom, take it and buy a cup of tea to drink." I am not going to capture the little vixen women, nor am I seeking revenge against them, but I am carrying a share of my heart in vain. Mom must know something, show me the way. ”

The bustard said: "I don't know if I found anyone, you went out of the wall, just went south, to the river of Qinglongfang to ask." As long as you are not afraid that you will not be able to go back after the door is closed, if you don't go anywhere else, you will naturally be there. ”

Nianyun thanked the bustard, turned his head and asked, "Xue Chu'er is redeemed today?" I heard that a businessman from Jiangnan redeemed her body? ”

Bustard said, "If you find her, just ask her yourself." ”

Nian Yun saw that this bustard was tight-lipped, so he had to say goodbye and rode to Qinglongfang.

Arrived at Qinglongfang, enter from the east side of the fang, walk not far, sure enough, see a river, there are some bluestone slabs paved on the river bank for people to walk, an arch bridge on the top spans the river, there are many weeping willows planted on both sides, it is very beautiful under the sunset. Nian Yun looked down along the riverbank and saw two figures snuggling by the river, and sure enough, they were Guo Yan and Xue Chu'er.

"Third brother—"

Nian Yun rode his horse and ran in front of the two before jumping off the horse: "Third brother, Chu'er, I found you!" ”

Guo Yan asked: "Looking for me something?" ”

Nian Yun punched him and said angrily: "Something! Since you found Miss Xue, and you didn't call anyone to tell me, my heart has been hanging, for fear that Miss Xue will leave with someone directly. ”

Guo Yan smiled: "I came out in a hurry, I didn't bring anyone, those little guys are just afraid that they are still looking for us, but how can I tell you!" ”

Chu'er said: "It's all my fault, I made my own decision without understanding the matter, but I misunderstood Mrs. Jun." ”

Nian Yun knew that this misunderstanding had been explained, and took her hand and said: "Miss Xue, I know that you are good to my brother, so I secretly sent someone to ask you about your worth, I said that the gift I want to give you is to redeem your body, whether you and my brother or leave, I want to give you a free body." Didn't expect ......"

Xue Chu'er sighed and said with a wry smile: "It's always better to count people than to be counted by heaven!" ”

Nian Yun was about to ask carefully, but he heard a "bang", and it was the bell of the drum tower ringing.

Guo Yan also said goodbye to Xue Chuer, untied his mother from the willow tree, and the two rushed out of Qinglongfang before the door was closed. The two slowed down, and the two horses marched in unison, slowly walking by the moonlight.

Nian Yun asked, "What is my brother going to do?" ”

Guo Yan sighed: "She was now bought by a businessman surnamed Shen, and I heard that he has many concubines in his family, and Chu'er is afraid that life will not be easy by his side." I had already sent someone to ask, and he agreed to sell it to me again, but his value increased twentyfold. ”

Nianyun smiled bitterly: "Twenty times!" Sure enough, he is a businessman, and he can live in strange goods. ”

"If I don't pay this price, they will leave in two days, leave Chang'an and never come back."

"Our Guo family, we don't even have a way to contain a small businessman?"

"Yes, yes, but there are only two days, Chu'er is in his hands, I can't suffer in vain for this to make Chu'er. Besides, the reputation of your hard work makes it rumored everywhere that your brother is bullying people and robbing women? ”

Things are a little tricky. Nian Yunyi gritted his teeth: "How much money can you come up with?" Let's get the people out first. ”

Guo Yan said: "Time is too short. In the past few years, some of the businesses run by our family have improved, and I have done everything I can, and everything that can be collected in cash has been taken out, and I can be two or three percent. ”

Although her dowry is rich, she has paid a lot for Chang'er to make a dowry, and most of the rest are bulky, and the other party is afraid that she will not accept it.

Nianyun said: "If a few shops outside can make some money, they can also make up two or three percent." If the jewelry is also counted as money, there are two or three percent, but it is still not enough. ”

She originally had some money, but it was all in the deficit of the East Palace, and it was not easy to tell Guo Yan, and she couldn't tell her if she was suffering for a while.

Guo Yan thought for a while and said, "I have two shops next to each other outside, and I was favored by others. The price he offered was too low, only 400,000 yuan, so naturally he couldn't sell it to him. My two shops are the most profitable, and I won't sell them for a million dollars. Now that I am in a hurry to raise money, I will ask him if he can buy it, and I can make up the amount of money I have. ”

"Okay, then it's decided, let's go separately to raise money, and if we can get together enough tomorrow, we will immediately go to redeem her body."

Guo Yan hurriedly sold the shop at a low price, got 400,000 yuan in cash, and went to find Nianyun. The two of them scraped together enough money and goods to redeem Xue Chu'er, carried them in two carriages, and picked more than a dozen strong servants to escort them. Nian Yun changed into men's clothes and followed Guo Yan to the residence of the merchant surnamed Shen, and put several large boxes of money in front of him.

The boss surnamed Shen greeted him with a haha, and Xue Chu'er bit her lip and stood behind him.

"The two Lang Jun are really generous, Shen originally planned to leave tomorrow, and Lang Jun raised enough money in one day, and sure enough, he didn't know how many nobles there were in Chang'an......

Guo Yan said: "Boss Shen points a little bit, see if it's enough money?" ”

He walked to the side of the money box, and Guo Yan's little servant opened the money box one after another, and the yellow was dazzling.

"Enough, enough, enough, Shen believes in you." Even as a businessman, he has never seen so much cash once, and his expression is by no means stunned, his jaw is about to fall, and he is afraid that he regrets that he didn't open the price a little higher.

But at this time, it was too late to regret it, looking at the posture of the two of them, more than a dozen sturdy men carrying money boxes behind them were neatly lined up in two rows, not inferior to the dart master he brought.

These two people can raise so much money in one day, naturally they are either rich or expensive, and it seems that they will never give up if they don't take people away today.

Guo Pian bowed: "In that case, our deal is done?" ”

"It's done, it's done."

When he looked at the money, his fat eyes made Nianyun extremely disgusted, and he couldn't help but wonder how Xue Chu'er could commit himself to such a character. Nian Yun didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, so he stepped forward: "Bring the deed of sale." ”

The merchant surnamed Shen took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it over. Nian Yun took the piece of paper from his fat hand, saw that Xue Chu'er's name and place of origin were written on it, and it was stamped with the seals of the government and the teaching workshop, and showed it to Xue Chu'er himself, and after confirming that it was correct, he ordered someone to take the pen and paper, sign and draw the pledge, and agreed that the merchant surnamed Shen would not interfere with Xue Chu'er's everything for any reason in the future.

"Chu'er, come here." Nian Yun beckoned Chu Er to his side, and ordered someone to bring a fire fold, and put the thin deed of sale on the fire in front of her, only to see a burst of bright fire jumping by, leaving only a piece of gray ashes, scattered in the wind.

"Chu'er, you're free."

Xue Chu'er, who had always bitten her lip tightly, watched the deed of sale turn into smoke, and tears actually fell. She ordered her maidservant to take some money from the house and give it to the "merchant surnamed Shen" and the dart master, and sent them away.

Nian Yun was dumbfounded, Xue Chu'er suddenly fell to the ground, and gave a big salute to Nian Yun and Guo Yan, startling the two of them: "Chu'er, what are you doing here!" ”

"Chu'er deceived Guo Lang and Mrs. Jun, and asked the two to forgive their sins!"

Nianyun jumped up: "What are you messing with!" ”

"Chu'er is guilty! In fact, there is no such thing as a businessman surnamed Shen redeeming himself, it is Chu'er who redeems himself for himself, and he just wants to see if Guo Lang really wants to redeem Chu'er......"

Carrying so much heart for her turned out to be just a game for her. Guo Yan didn't care, he only thought that Chu'er was okay, and was ready to reach out to help her.

Nian Yun couldn't help but be furious, his willow eyebrows were upside down, and he slapped Guo Yan's hand away: "Xue Chu'er! Now you're happy, my brother and I have been played around by you as monkeys! You're a lion's mouth, twenty times! In order to raise money for you, my brother and I were busy almost all night last night, selling the shop, and we almost didn't put a straw mark on my own and take it to the East Market to sell! ”

"Chu Er doesn't need this money, Guo Lang can take it back as it is......

Nian Yun said angrily: "Leave it as it is!" Just for your sake, I sold the goods at a discount, and the money I earned from my hard work was almost lost! Are you a rich Guo family? Do you think our money fell from the sky? There's a limit to how much you can mess around! ”

Xue Chu'er was still kneeling on the ground, her voice was not high but very calm: "Chu'er knows that Guo Lang and Mrs. County treat Chu'er sincerely, and Chu'er will be grateful for Mrs. County's great kindness for the rest of her life." Chu'er really messed around, and hoped that Guo Lang and Mrs. Jun would forgive their sins. Chu'er has been in Pingkang for more than ten years, hiding from her mother, and accumulating a little bit behind her back. As long as Guo Lang does not dislike it and is willing to accept the middle feed, Chu Er will use all his savings as dowry funds, which should be enough to make up for the shortfall of money and goods. ”

"I promised to redeem my life for you, neither to ask you to be grateful, nor to take a concubine for my brother!"

Speaking of which, it turned out to be self-inflicted, and she didn't need help at all. But since she and Guo Jun are in love, how can you doubt his feelings and his character? She used the money to test Guo Yan's sincerity, which was clearly an insult in Nianyun's opinion.

Nian Yun didn't know where the anger came from, and angrily went up from the carriage to untie the horse's sleeve.

Guo Yan came over to stop her, and Nian Yun shook off his hand vigorously: "Third brother, I don't want to stay here for a moment, my kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, and others just want to verify whether their charm is enough!" ”

Guo Yan wanted to persuade her, but he didn't know what to say. Nian Yun had already untied a horse and asked in a loud voice, "Guo Yan, will you come with me?" ”

"I ......" Guo Yan looked at Xue Chu'er, and then at Nianyun, who was in a dilemma, Nianyun glared at him, ignored him, spurred his horse, and flew away.
