Chapter 24 About Lin Rui
After arriving in Yunxi, Gu Xianyi invited again, so Tao Yao and Lin Rui stayed in his villa.
Gu Xianzhi is the young master of the Gu Mansion, and this Yunxi is exactly where his other garden is located. Looking at his appearance, his identity will not be much worse, but he is indeed too noisy as a man, and he is even a little more verbose than Ah Li.
Listening to Gu Xianzhi's squeaking along the way, you can probably guess it. Half a year ago, Lin Rui saved the lives of him and his fiancΓ©e by chance, so the two became friends, and Gu Xianzhi really had nothing to say to Lin Rui.
Gu Xianzhi returned to Yunxi this time to chase after his mother's wife. The husband and wife were married three months ago, but his wife was straightforward and strong by nature, and there was no room for half a grain of sand in her eyes.
Gu Xianzhi was drunk one day because of business entertainment and did not go back to the room to rest. On the second day, Mrs. Gu packed her luggage without saying a word, and returned to her parents' house without looking back with her maid.
It was really surprising that there was such a fierce wife in ancient times, but in my heart I also admired the lady of his family, she was really daring and cute.
After Gu Xianzhi arranged for them to stay in the other garden, he hurried to his father-in-law's house to chase his wife.
Tao Yao and Lin Rui were left to stay.
At this moment, the two sat opposite each other.
Lin Rui was sitting precariously looking at the book, sipping tea from time to time. And Tao Yao ate dim sum by herself, and it has long become a habit for them to get along without words.
After a while, a man in charge came to report: "Young Master Lin, the young master and his wife are invited." β
So they followed the steward to the front hall, and Tao Yao also saw Gu Xianzhi's wife.
A woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, I saw that her eyebrows and eyes were shrewd, and her small mouth was very delicate, Tao Yao had listened to Gu Xianzhi's description before, and thought that she might be a bit of a Hedong lion, but in fact, the person in front of her didn't look too domineering, but the whole face made people look very comfortable.
As soon as she saw Tao Yao and Lin Rui, she spoke first: "Lin Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
Lin Rui nodded at her in agreement.
Gu Xianzhi also greeted warmly: "Brother Lin hasn't seen you for a long time, today we set up a thin banquet, please smile." β
"Miss Yaoyao, come here and sit down." Mrs. Gu took Tao Yao's hand and sat at the table.
"Thank you both for your hospitality." Lin Rui said hypocritically.
"What kind of hospitality is this, when Brother Lin and the girl come to Yunfei in the future, we will set up a feast to entertain the two." Gu Xianzhi said proudly.
Heh, it turns out that the real mansion of the Gu family is in Yunfei, and Tao Yao knows that it must be this Lin Rui gourd who sells medicine again.
"Then thank you Brother Gu." Lin Rui said pretendly.
Tao Yao ate by herself and didn't say anything.
Lin Rui was very familiar with the dishes for her, feeling a little like no one else.
Tao Yao smiled awkwardly and continued to cook as if nothing had happened.
Mrs. Gu said: "Coarse tea and light rice, the two of you appreciate your face." β
Tao Yao smiled at her: "Madame is modest." β
"By the way, this Yaoyao girl is also a disciple of Yunshan, I don't know what happened to the Tao Xiao girl next to Lin Gongzi before? At the beginning, thanks to Miss Tao's careful care, otherwise my grandson would not have recovered so quickly. I only heard Mrs. Gu suddenly say something like this.
Sister Five? Something really happened between them, but why is it said that the Fifth Emperor Sister is also a disciple of Yunshan?
Hearing the name of the Fifth Emperor Sister, Lin Rui's expression suddenly darkened, but he was still eating in a dignified manner.
Gu Xianzhi gave Mrs. Gu a wink, but she didn't notice it, and still said to herself: "If Gongzi Lin sees Miss Tao, please thank her on behalf of our couple." β
Lin Rui responded lightly: "If you have the opportunity, thank you in person." β
In short, he didn't have a chance.
Gu Xianzhi pulled Mrs. Gu's sleeve and signaled her to stop talking, Mrs. Gu stopped talking, but glared at Gu Xianzhi viciously.
This lady is really interesting.
After the meal, Tao Yao sat in the backyard pavilion in a daze, Lin Rui was invited by Gu Xianzhi to play chess, and Mrs. Gu also went to watch the game.
Although he also plays against each other on weekdays, he is not interested in their chess game.
Lin Rui doesn't like to play games on weekdays, I'm afraid that he has already made a plan when he comes to Yunxi this time, and this matter has nothing to do with the Gu couple.
Tao Yao thought about it, and for a moment she was in a trance, and she didn't notice that Mrs. Gu was already sitting next to her.
"Miss Yaoyao, Miss Yaoyao?" She shook Taoyao's arm.
"Isn't Mrs. Gu watching chess?"
"The two of them are playing chess, and I'm a woman, and it's boring to watch, so it's better to come out and chat with you." Looking at Mrs. Gu with smiling eyes in front of her, Tao Yao had a good impression of her in her heart.
She looks straightforward and simple, if it weren't for Lin Rui's intentions for them, she would think they could make friends.
"I wonder what's on Miss's mind? Sitting here alone in a daze? Mrs. Gu asked curiously.
Tao Yao shook her head and smiled at her: "It's okay, it's just that I accidentally thought about some trivial things." β
She listened and took Tao Yao's hand, and said, "Miss Yaoyao, don't be surprised, I didn't specifically mention Miss Tao at the dinner just now, but she did save our lives at that time, and I was really curious to ask more." β
Looking at her bright and clear eyes, Tao Yao knew that there was no malice in her words, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, Sister Tao, you should be doing well now." β
The Fifth Emperor Sister must have had a good time in the palace, but she was divorced by Lin Rui, so I don't know how uncomfortable she will be.
Mrs. Gu looked at her and said very straightforwardly: "Miss, don't be surprised, at first I did think that Lin Gongzi and Miss Tao were a couple, but today when I saw Lin Gongzi treating you, I knew that I was wrong, the person he really liked was you." β
Tao Yao sighed in her heart, Lin Rui's feelings for herself, others seem to see it very clearly, in fact, she is not stupid, she can also feel it, but Lin Rui's liking is not something that everyone can bear.
"Senior brother loves me or not, how can you see it so clearly?" Tao Yao glanced at her and said lightly.
I saw that Mrs. Gu's smile was even more difficult to hide, holding Tao Yao's hand tightly, and said: "Miss doesn't know something, this word love is always a fascination with bystanders, you should know how much he likes you when you look at Lin Gongzi's eyes." β
"Oh? Is it? Tao Yao pretended to be confused, they said that their eyes would not deceive people, so how could there be drama in the world?
Mrs. Gu smiled unabatedly: "Miss is really in the blessing and doesn't know the blessing, if he treats him in the future, it will be a little better for Gongzi Lin to deal with others, I'm afraid you won't be as calm as you are now." β
After hearing this, the corners of Tao Yao's mouth hooked up a smile, she said that Lin Rui would be good to others? She shook her head in her heart, Lin Rui was ruthless and unjust, and it was impossible to be kind to anyone easily. She hadn't imagined, and really couldn't imagine, that such a situation would happen.
"There can't be a day like this." Facing Mrs. Gu, Tao Yao pulled out a smile, which was very bright.
Mrs. Gu also smiled when she heard this: "The girl is so determined? She shook the jade fan and continued, "It seems that the young lady has actually made up her mind for a long time. β
In fact, Mrs. Gu didn't fully understand what Tao Yao meant, she was not confident that Lin Rui would treat her alone for the rest of her life. It's just that she knows that Lin Rui will not treat others well, even if she is good on the surface, she must have intentions behind the scenes.
Lin Rui, Tao Yao can't say that he knows the roots, but he still knows a little bit.
