Chapter 17 Lantern Festival
It wasn't just the forester who was surprised, even Gu Yanbai didn't expect this Mingyuexi to say this topic so directly.
"When we were outside today, we heard a lot of people say that the foresters have lost a lot of money in business recently, but as soon as I heard this, I went up and reasoned with them that we lived in another house, and their house didn't look like a loss at all, you guys are spreading rumors, understand!"
Mingyuexi said, and Gu Yanbai suddenly felt that it was a good idea to say it directly......
"At that time, I argued with them for a long time and no result came out, you said that this matter is not angry!"
Mingyuexi pretended to be angry and said to the forester, but the forester didn't say anything else.
"Don't care about those gossips, anyway, we all know what the truth is, and there is no need to pay attention to the slander and rumors of these people."
"That's it."
Mingyuexi said, looking like she had the same hatred as the forester, which made Gu Yanbai feel a little ridiculous......
While a few people were talking, two women suddenly walked out from the backyard holding hands.
"Daddy, I went out with my sister."
A burst of laughter like silver bells came, and at this time Mingyuexi noticed the two beauties who came out of the backyard.
A daughter in a purple sleeve shirt in front of him looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was gentle and lovely, while the woman behind him was about the same age as him, but she was more innocent in a blue dress.
I have to say that these two girls are all extremely well-behaved and pretty, and if they are placed outside, they will definitely attract everyone's attention.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, let's see the guests first."
Saying that, the forester picked up his two daughters one by one and came to Gu Yanbai and Mingyuexi.
"I came in a hurry yesterday and took my two daughters to meet my son, although it was a coincidence, but today is also a formal introduction to the little girl and my son."
As he spoke, the forester pulled up the girl in purple and walked in front of Gu Yanbai and said, "This is my eldest daughter, Lin does not hesitate." ”
"I don't hesitate to see guests."
Lin did not hesitate to behave politely in front of Gu Yanbai, and then turned to Mingyuexi with his hand.
After introducing Lin Buhe, Lin Yuanwai pulled his second daughter over.
"This is my youngest daughter Lin Fangyun."
"Fang Yun has seen the guest."
After saluting one by one, there was no wall outside the forester to pull them, and the girl let them go out to play.
"The forester gave birth to two good girls."
Gu Yanbai said, and when he heard this, Lin Yuanwai only waved his hand.
"It's all up to the two of them to be sensible, their mother left early, and I was busy with business, and I didn't have much time to take care of them, to be honest, I regretted that I had been in business all these years."
"I don't know what kind of business you do outside of the forester, why are you so busy?"
Mingyuexi spoke, he was ready to start talking from outside the forester.
"It's just some silk business, speaking of which the silk business has been very good over the years, but it's been a little lonely in the past two days, and the business of each family is not very good, but when it comes to losing money, unless it is really not well managed, this situation may occur."
"Yes, but I see that there are a lot of silk windows closed down now, and it is really not easy for a forester to maintain such a scale now."
"Where, where."
The forester said outside, and he could also see that now Mingyuexi wanted to get something out of his mouth, but he was not a fool, so naturally he would not go down with Mingyuexi's flowers.
"Okay, the two of you have been out to play for a long time, I guess we should be tired, why don't you go back and rest first, and then let's go out for a walk together at night?"
The forester said outside, obviously he didn't want to say anything to Mingyuexi and them anymore, and Mingyuexi was happy to see this situation.
"I didn't think much of it just now, but I'm really tired from listening to what the staff said."
With that, Mingyuexi stood up.
"Then we'll quit first."
"Rest well, and we'll go out together in the evening."
Saying that, Mingyuexi and Gu Yanbai left the courtyard and returned to their guest rooms.
"How's it going, did you ask anything?"
"Haven't you been watching? If you don't ask, don't you see it? ”
Mingyuexi's face was not very good-looking, because this forester had been dodging outside and had never answered his question head-on.
Although he didn't ask anything, this conversation deepened Mingyuexi's suspicions about this forester.
"There must be something wrong with him, but he's too cautious to be able to do anything if we want anything from him."
"So we still have to do it in the same way that we agreed upon."
The two of them decided that they should start from Liu Laohan's house, but they had already been there once this morning, so it was better to rest at home for a while now, and wait until the evening to make other plans.
After lunch, I took a short lunch break in my room and it was almost evening.
Mingyuexi originally wanted to go to Gu Yanbai to discuss the next move, but when he first came to Gu Yanbai's door, he found that the two daughters of the Lin family had just walked into Gu Yanbai's room.
"What are the two of them doing looking for Gu Yanbai?"
Mingyuexi had a trace of doubt in his heart, but he was not impulsive, but quietly came to the window and eavesdropped on the words inside.
"Gu Gongzi, my sister and I went to buy some lotus seeds today and boiled some lotus seed soup, thinking that Gu Gongzi would probably be tired this day, so I did. sent some to Gu Gongzi to quench his thirst. ”
Lin did not hesitate to take Lin Fangyun and the two of them together with lotus seed soup and walked in front of Gu Yanbai.
In fact, Gu Yanbai was really thirsty, but he didn't know why the two sisters suddenly sent lotus seed soup over......
Holding the lotus seed soup, Gu Yanbai is lower mouth is not clothed lower mouth.
And the two sisters squirmed for a long time before they opened their mouths to reveal their true intentions.
"Gu Gongzi, there is a lantern festival tonight, I wonder if Gongzi is interested in going with us to see it?"
"What kind of lantern festival? I'm interested! ”
Just when Gu Yanbai hadn't answered, suddenly Mingyuexi's voice came from outside, Gu Yanbai raised his head, and just saw Mingyuexi walking towards him.
