Chapter 174: A Unique Password
Gu Yanbai didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, but after Shen Mengyi heard it, he cried instead.
She wiped her tears and was sad: "How do I know what my father thinks, I originally disagreed." But my father told me that I am so old, it is time to find a good family. As for the fact that I did not interfere in this matter, let me wait. ”
"The major event of marriage is naturally 'the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker.'" You don't have to be sad. Gu Yanbai couldn't see her crying like this, so he comforted her perfunctorily.
"But I don't like Xu Mubai, I don't want it!" Shen Mengyi cried even more fiercely.
This made Gu Yanbai, a straight man, even more unaware of what was wrong, perhaps because Shen Mengyi was too shy. simply do a good deed by yourself and say this family business for Xu Mubai. In this way, Miss Shen doesn't have to be sad, and she has also solved Xu Mubai's love rival.
Thinking of this, Gu Yanbai nodded with satisfaction, thinking that what he thought made sense.
For this reason, he stopped Shen Mengyi, but also said patiently: "Okay, don't cry, it's useless to cry." You come with me, and we will discuss this kind of thing together. ”
With his words, the grief on Shen Mengyi's face paused, and he aimed at Gu Yanbai through the handkerchief. Could it be that he feels sorry for himself and plans to come forward to solve the matter?
The two arrived in the reception hall, and the maid brought tea.
Shen Meng sat there shyly, anxiously waiting for Gu Yanbai to speak. As long as he said a word, he immediately went back to explain to his father that he would withdraw from the marriage of the Xu family at that time, so that he could agree to the marriage with Yanbai as soon as possible.
Gu Yanbai didn't have this kind of dream, but he was a little thirsty, so he picked up the cup and took a few sips.
"Miss Shen, although I don't know Gongzi Xu very well, I have met a few times. Xu Gongzi is talented and personable, which is much worse than General Shen's Mansion, and he can definitely match Miss Shen. You don't have to be so sad, after getting married, I believe that Miss Shen and Xu Gongzi will be able to love each other. Gu Yanbai put down the cup and said confidently.
At least in his opinion, there is nothing wrong with what he said, and it is reasonable.
The smile gradually solidified on Shen Mengyi's face until it dissipated.
"You actually want me to marry Xu Mubai!" She stood up on the ground, emotional.
Gu Yanbai blinked his eyes and looked innocent: "What's the problem?" ”
Suddenly, Shen Mengyi's tears were like beads with broken threads, and she burst into tears.
"I don't like Xu Mubai, I want to get out of the marriage!" She was full of grievances, and once again staged a cry, two troubles, and three hangings, so as to attract attention.
No matter how much patience she had, she couldn't withstand Shen Mengyi's consumption, Gu Yanbai was too lazy to see her crying like this, so she simply left someone and went out alone.
When people arrived at the door, they happened to run into Mingyue Creek.
"Where are you going?" Gu Yanbai looked it up and down.
Mingyuexi didn't know anything about Shen Mengyi, and said calmly: "Go out and take a look and see if there are clues." ”
"It just so happens that I'm going too, so it's better to go together." Gu Yanbai said with a smile.
He didn't want to stay here and face Shen Mengyi.
Mingyuexi didn't think much about it, and nodded happily in agreement.
Since going back yesterday, Mingyuexi has been studying that handkerchief. After racking her brains, she thought of a key point, fabric!
This kind of cloth is expensive to the touch, and in ancient times, in such a place where resources were scarce, there must have been very few places where you could buy or sell this kind of cloth. Follow this clue and maybe make a new discovery.
After asking more than a dozen silk shops in the capital, it was a pity that there were no clues at all, which made Mingyuexi inevitably a little disappointed.
"This is the last one, if it doesn't work, I can only think of another way." Mingyuexi said with a frown.
As soon as the two entered, Xiao Er stepped forward: "This guest officer, I don't know what you need?" ”
Yu Guang glanced at Xiao Er, Mingyuexi took out the handkerchief, and said seriously: "This is my friend's handkerchief, I want to ask, you have this thing in your store, I want to customize some." ”
Xiao Er listened to it and took it happily. Touched it, looked at it again, and a smile froze on his face.
Soon, the other party seemed to be a nobody, handed the handkerchief to Mingyue Xidi, shook his head and denied: "I haven't seen the little one." ”
Who is fooling you with this? Ming Yuexi looked at her just now, and she clearly knew something.
With a flicker of her eyes, Mingyuexi agreed to take out a silver ingot from her arms, put it in Xiao Er's hand, and said with a smile: "Little brother, I really need it urgently, you can help me." ”
Money can make ghosts grind, and the ancients never deceived people.
Xiao Eryi took the silver and immediately weighed it in his hand, and the weight was not light. Immediately, he smiled knowingly: "The girl is so anxious, and the little one is not a person who can't be saved when she sees death." As far as I know, this kind of material is only available in a restaurant in the city, so you can go and see it. ”
Selling silk and satin in restaurants in the capital has become twisted. It seems that the gangsters kidnapped Lin Mu and then transported him to the capital, where he hid is the most likely.
After asking for the address, Mingyuexi and Gu Yanbai rushed there non-stop.
When they arrived at the place, the two of them had already changed their identities at this moment, no longer the county lord and the little marquis, but businessmen from afar.
This idea was proposed by Mingyuexi, and Linlang Pavilion may know them very well. To be on the safe side, it's better to dress up in disguise.
Boom!
Mingyuexi knocked on the door, and after a while, someone quietly opened the door and poked his head out.
"Who are you?" After the other party saw Mingyuexi and Gu Yanbai, he asked vigilantly.
Gu Yanbai coughed dryly, and deliberately raised his voice: "We are merchants from the south, and this time we are looking for some good goods." After inquiring privately, I learned that you have good silk here, and I want to do business. ”
As a result, as soon as the words fell, the other party said indifferently: "No! Then he closed the door mercilessly.
Bang, if Gu Yanbai hadn't retreated quickly, he was afraid that the door would have smashed on his head.
"Hey! What are you doing here? Mingyuexi was dumbfounded and knocked on the door again.
Gu Yanbai stopped her and said helplessly: "Don't knock, I guess they have already seen that we are not." ”
"What do you mean?" Mingyuexi touched her chin, and her frowning brow showed her doubts.
Gu Yanbai didn't explain this answer here, and after he went back, he carefully analyzed it: "As far as I know, Linlang Pavilion has always been rigorous. Communicating privately has always had their own unique code. I think the problem should be in the code. ”
Suddenly, Mingyuexi suddenly realized.
"You have a point! If so, that's the only way to go. Mingyuexi said solemnly.
Gu Yan looked at her suspiciously: "That way, what way?" ”
In this regard, Mingyuexi winked at him: "Mountain people have their own tricks, you will know when the time comes!" ”
