Chapter 150: Benefactor
Shivering, Xu Wenlan looked at the young man with a cold face, and suddenly felt a little cold.
Abductors are hateful, just now she was thinking in her heart that these abductors should be killed, but hearing the words of a young man who is only fourteen or fifteen years old indifferently deciding life and death, she is still a little uncomfortable.
Don't turn her face, deliberately not looking at the red hair, she coughed lightly, and quietly pulled down the hem of Bai Shengwen's clothes: "Father and mother!" ”
"In the back." Bai Shengwen was obviously not very used to it, so he arched his hand and wanted to leave: "Young Master Guo Buluo, there is nothing to do with my brothers and sisters here, so I will leave first." ”
"No hurry!" The young man intercepted Bai Shengwen's words in a deep voice, although he was only one or two years older than Bai Shengwen, he had an indescribable momentum.
"If it weren't for you, you probably wouldn't have caught these kidnappers so quickly - anyway, your family is my little sister's lifesaver. It's so late, and I can't get out of the city, so I simply arrange for you to stay in the city, and I'll have to testify against these kidnappers in the hall tomorrow! ”
When the young man spoke, he had a feeling of arrogance, although he didn't particularly annoy it, but Xu Wenlan still didn't like this feeling, was this ordering them? They talk about benefactors, but where do they really look at them as benefactors?
Bai Shengwen also hesitated: "That's ...... Then I'll discuss it with my parents, find an inn to live in, and testify in court tomorrow. ”
"What kind of inn to stay in!" The young man raised his eyebrows, although he still had a cold face, but his attitude was a little gentle: "You are the guests of my Guo Buluo family, naturally you have to live at home, how can you go to the guest house - needless to say, I will arrange someone to take you back to Guo Buluo's house." ”
There was no room for refusal, even if Bai Yingkui repeatedly refused, a family of five was still taken to Guo Buluo's house.
When sending the God of Wealth before, Xu Wenlan had passed by this street and saw the mansion of Guo Buluo's family.
It's just that none of them came to send the God of Wealth to this Guo Buluo Mansion, and a big family like this can't even enter the door, so why bother asking for trouble.
I have only seen it outside, Guo Buluo Mansion occupies a whole street, gray walls and tiles, Zhumen stone lions, gold plaques, only the eaves and clouds can be seen from a distance, although there may not be the beauty of the Jiangnan garden, but I think it must be much more luxurious than ordinary rich families.
It's too dark, I can't see it clearly when I enter the house, but on the light, I can still vaguely see one or two, this house is far bigger than the outside, one courtyard is one courtyard, I don't know how deep it is.
Faintly, there is a faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the air, and there is a garden in this house, even if it is not as good as Jiangnan, but it is worth visiting.
On the way to the guest room, the Bai couple were very restrained, although they had a steward to accompany them to laugh, but Bai Yingkui had always been wooden, and even the Zhu family, who usually spoke well, only laughed.
As soon as the people went out, they kept chanting: "How is this good, I actually lived in Guo Buluo's house, my God, I have never lived in such a good house again......"
Turning his head to look at the furnishings in the guest room, Zhu didn't even dare to touch it, for fear of breaking other people's things.
"My goodness, this set of cups is so beautiful, it doesn't cost a few taels of silver to buy it!"
On the table is a full set of pastels, beautiful colors, exquisite workmanship, this set of porcelain if it is handed down to modern times, it is probably valuable, but in these years, in Guo Buluo's house is just an ordinary thing.
Xu Wenlan smiled, poured a cup of tea casually, and handed it a few times, before Bai Yingkui carefully took it and took a sip, not holding the cup, but holding it.
Bai Shengwen lowered his eyes, didn't know what he was thinking, smiled slightly, raised his head and met Xu Wenlan's gaze, and then whispered: "After seeing my father, I know what it means to be flattered." ”
Rolling his eyes, Xu Wenlan hadn't spoken yet, and Zhu had already snorted softly: "Stinky boy, what are you arranged?" Who are we, we can still be allowed to be in a serious room, I never thought about it - don't really think that you are someone's lifesaver! This Guo Buluo family is not our Tunzi Wang master, we don't dare to stand in front of others. ”
Bai Shengwen smiled and nodded in response, and stopped talking.
Xu Wenlan pursed her lips and snickered, but she felt a little sad when she thought about it.
Zhu's words may sound petty, but when you think about it, they are also reasonable.
Although he was sent to the guest room, the young master of the Guo Buluo family was also shouting as a life-saving benefactor, but in fact, he didn't necessarily think so in his heart.
I didn't see that from the beginning to the end, there was no master, and even Guo Buluo's big butler didn't show up, and it was just the steward who picked them up, so it can be seen that Guo Buluo's family may not really value them as much as the young master said, if they take it seriously, it will be really boring. It's no wonder that Zhu is cowering and timid, he really sees through the world.
agreed with Zhu's words in his heart, and when the steward who sent them brought the girl to deliver boiling water and snacks, Xu Wenlan was even more polite.
The steward said "life-saving grace" vigorously, but the five members of the Bai family just refused, and the words were just a gesture, and Xu Wenlan said bluntly: "It was your family Gege who saved herself, if she hadn't been alert and dropped a pearl flower, there would be no such things outside." ”
Gege is a Manchu "Miss", how can you not know that you have watched the Qing Piercing drama? But as soon as Xu Wenlan spoke, the person in charge couldn't help but look at Xu Wenlan twice.
After laughing and saying a few more words, he withdrew with the girl.
Listening to the footsteps getting farther away, Zhu hurriedly beckoned the three little ones to sleep first: "You three squeezed, Wen Lan and I sleep on the bed over there......"
The family washed and rested, but the steward who came out of the small courtyard of the guest room went around in a circle and entered a courtyard of the front house from the corridor.
The boy sat against the window, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, his eyebrows lowered, as if thoughtful.
The candlelight dimmed, making his indifferent face a little gentle, but the steward who came in did not dare to relax at all, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked for peace first, and did not dare to speak, so he bent down and stood.
When the young man raised his head and spoke, he replied respectfully: "Young master, that family doesn't look like anything, it's no different from an ordinary peasant family, especially the two couples, they are very restrained and apprehensive, according to the villain, ten taels of silver can be used to send ......"
The young man raised his eyebrows, as if smiling: "Is it really someone who can be sent away by giving a little silver?" Do you see it? Steward Lee"
Steward Li licked his lips and hesitated a little: "Well, that girl in his family has some knowledge, and she also knows that our Manchurian young lady is called 'Gege'." ”
"The daughter of that family......" The young man clicked on the table, and suddenly asked: "Fugui, you tell Steward Li about what you heard." ”
The little girl who had been lowering her head came over, and her eyebrows danced: "The little ones have asked clearly, saying that the little girl lit the window paper of the house next door at that time and shouted 'go to the water', which alarmed the neighbors." And she also said that she was a member of our Guo Buluo family, and promised a reward of silver to let people catch those crutches, but unfortunately those people were timid and afraid, and they wilted when they saw the crutches flashing their knives......"
