Chapter 148: Manifestation
Chapter 148: Manifestation
"He said it," Gu Banniang said without hesitation.
Before the words fell, Lingbao had already pulled out his feet and rushed out of the door.
So, what she saw that day was not a phantom.
There was a dense flow of people outside the door, shouting and laughing, but there was no Lingyuan.
Until the daylight was getting slanting, Lingbao, who was standing outside the door and staring at it stupidly, didn't see the person he wanted to see.
"Maybe I guessed wrong." Gu Bainiang patted her on the shoulder, with a worried look on her face.
"No, no, Miss must have guessed correctly." Lingbao shook his head quickly, and looked at Gu Banniang with a little pleading.
Gu Bainiang couldn't help but smile bitterly, secretly regretting why she had to say what she thought in her heart so bluntly, and when she thought about it at this time, this idea was really a bit too presumptuous.
"Maybe it's not convenient for him to come, so I'll send a kite over first, so that you can rest assured... She whispered, took the Lingbao back to the medicine hall, asked her to sit down on a chair, and took the hot tea and stuffed it into her hand.
Lingbao ate a few sips of tea in a daze, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth, and his face became happy again.
"Yes, it must be so, my brother must be a slave to others, and he must not be able to help himself. She nodded.
She stood up with some excitement, as if she didn't know how to do it first.
"I made clothes and shoes for my brother, I don't know if he has grown taller, thin or fat... She rubbed her hands together and said, pulled out her feet and ran to the inner hall.
Gu Bainiang sighed, only feeling that she didn't know what to say, she lowered her head and looked at the beauty kite in her hand, is that so? There are many mistakes, so the child must remember what he said that day, right? No mistakes in many words
The beauty kite was brought home by Gu Bainiang at Lingbao's insistence, and the butterfly kite blamed Lingbao for being a baby in his bedroom.
"Are you going to fly a kite?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Cao Shi saw Gu Bainiang coming in with a kite, and was a little surprised and a little happy.
If she could, she would rather eat bran vegetables than watch her daughter enjoy the short cardamom years happily every day.
"It was given by someone else." Gu Bainiang said casually.
"Someone else?" Cao Shi was even more surprised when he heard this, and walked over a few steps with a somewhat strange smile, "Who sent it?" ”
Mother's mind was like a teenage girl in front of Gu Bainiang, and she smiled dumbly.
"No, it's ... I bought it. So she said again.
Cao Shi didn't believe it, but he also knew that this daughter had a very good idea, since she didn't say it, she would never say it, and it was in vain to ask, so she didn't ask more.
In the next few days, Lingyuan did not appear as they imagined, Gu Bainiang's heart sank, and she felt that she really thought too much, this kite should have been dropped by others, but looking at Lingbao's expectant expression, she felt that it was better to have hope than no hope.
As the pharmacist meeting mentioned by Gu Lingyun approached, Gu Bainiang practiced more diligently.
"Miss Miss"
On this day, Baiqi is being concocted, according to the traditional method, Baiqi should be soaked first and then steamed, but Gu Bainiang mentioned it in combination with Liu Gong's book, and felt that it might be feasible to steam without soaking.
Taking out the steamed and soft baiji, Gu Bainiang just picked up the knife and was about to slice it, when she heard the shopkeeper shouting and ran in from the outer hall.
Naturally, he wouldn't enter the concoction room, so he only stood in the courtyard and shouted.
"Things?" Gu Bainiang was a little displeased, her subordinates did not stop, and the knife fell into pieces, but it was not sticky at all, and her face couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Miss, go and take a look, there are a lot of people outside, saying that they want to **... The shopkeeper didn't seem to notice Gu Banniang's displeasure, and still shouted outside.
"No," Gu Banniang replied.
"No, no, it's not ** you, it's looking for Miss Lingbao, you have to take Miss Lingbao away... The shopkeeper's voice was anxious and a little panicked.
Those people who came from outside were dressed extraordinarily, and their gestures showed their noble status, and that kind of momentum was not something that ordinary rich and noble families could cultivate.
keeps saying that our young master's, could it be that the son of which family has taken a fancy to Lingbao?
Although the legal system in the capital is strict, because the magnates of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty are concentrated here, it is inevitable that some harmless bullying of men and women occasionally occurs.
“?” The door of the concoction room opened suddenly, and Gu Bainiang strode out, still carrying a medicine knife in her hand.
Apparently she had that in mind, too.
"Small... Miss.... The shopkeeper was taken aback, and then saw that Gu Eighteen Niang had already gone to the lobby.
In the lobby, Lingbao's face turned pale from being frightened by these people.
"I don't know your young master, I don't know your young master... She just repeated.
"You guys?" Gu Bainiang's voice sounded like a heavenly sound.
Lingbao squeezed out of the crowd of three or four maids, grabbed Gu Bainiang's arm, and stood behind her.
The maids and the four little maids in Tsing Yi stood up with an unkind expression when they saw the girl carrying a knife at first glance, and then a few of the little maids laughed.
"Heh~ This is a fish killer?"
"It's a pig killer, right? No mistakes, not a lot of words"
Gu Bainiang sneered, her gaze swept over these people.
", whatever you are," she shouted.
The little guys were not afraid at all and stood up.
"Heh, brothers, this is the first time I've heard someone tell us to get out...
They all laughed when they talked, and the pretty maids also covered their mouths to eat and laugh.
"Little lady, we are from Zhufu... One of the willow waists stepped out and pointed out the door.
Outside the door were two horse-drawn carriages, extravagant and extravagant, with lanterns with scarlet characters on them.
"I don't care if you're a pig or a sheep or a dog, let me out," Gu Bainiang shouted with a heavy face, and she didn't look out of the door.
The little guys snorted, and a few had to say, and one of the older ones waved his hand to stop everyone's noise.
"This little lady, this matter has nothing to do with you, we are on the orders of our eldest young master to take Miss Lingbao back to the house, and there is no malice." He said, smiling at Lingbao who was hiding behind Gu Bainiang, "Miss Lingbao, let's go home." ”
Reaching out to grab the trembling Lingbao, Gu Bainiang waved the knife in her hand casually and stuck it on a table beside her.
"Which of you eldest young master is you?" She asked.
At this moment, the sound of galloping horses' hooves came from afar.
As if perceiving it, Gu Banniang's heart moved and looked out.
With a long neighing of the horse, a figure strode in, and almost at the same time all eyes in the room were focused on the visitor.
This young man is tall and thin, wearing a narrow-sleeved dress, with black hair and a crown, and he is really a young leader.
When she saw the person who came, and no matter how the others were, Gu Banniang only felt a bang in her brain.
"Brother... Lingbao pounced, and the future person hugged him tightly and cried loudly.
"Bao'er." Ling Yuan was also excited, his eyes were red, and he choked up.
Seeing the two brothers and sisters seeing each other, the little maid and the pretty maids immediately changed into a look of mixed joy and sorrow, and the atmosphere in the room was very warm.
"Second Young Master... The little maid stepped forward to comfort, "I have something to say to take Miss back, let's talk at home... ”
Ling Yuan looked at them at this time, his brows furrowed slightly, "Did the eldest young master ask you to come?" ”
"But no," the little guy said with a smile, "the eldest young master has all been arranged, and the house has been cleaned up... ”
"The furniture is all new, the eldest young master said, everything is arranged according to our sister-in-law's young lady... A pretty maid with slender eyebrows and eyes and a plump breasted willow waist rushed to say.
"Then thank you Young Master," Ling Yuan nodded, his eyes always on Ling Bao, "You guys go back first." ”
"The young master and the young lady... The pretty maid had to say more, but she was pulled down by the little girl, and she stopped talking.
"Yes." The little servant said respectfully, waved his hand, and the people in the room instantly retreated, leaving only the four of them.
The shopkeeper also came back to his senses at this time, and quietly retreated.
"Brother, brother, it's really you." Lingbao was still like a dream, he couldn't believe that the Lingyuan in front of him was real, and stretched out his hand to caress his brother's face.
Although the face was thin, it was not rough, but fairer than before.
When she touched Lingyuan's clothes, she knew that the texture was good, covered with exquisite embroidery patterns, and the jade belt around her waist was warm and delicate.
She lowered her head and saw a pair of blue-faced and white-bottomed small court boots, which was the favorite style of the young people of the powerful families in Beijing.
She thought of the neatly wrapped clothes, shoes and socks in her room, and she really couldn't take out her hand.
"Brother... Her tears began to fall again, and the sentence that she had said a thousand times in her heart that you suffered but could no longer speak.
"Bao'er, you've suffered." Lingyuan stretched out his hand to wipe her tears, and said with sad eyes.
Lingbao bit his lower lip and shook his head, "It's not bitter, it's not bitter, as long as I can be with my brother again, Lingbao is not bitter at all... ”
"Brother will never leave you again... Ling Yuan stroked his sister's head and said solemnly.
Before his words fell, he heard Gu Bainiang's deep voice ringing in the room.
"Lingbao, come here."
As soon as this voice broke into his ears, Ling Yuan suddenly suffocated.
His heart was beating so hard that he didn't hear any other sound in his ears, only his own puffing heartbeat, and his eardrums were swollen.
His head froze, and it seemed that with all his strength, it took a long time for his eyes to fall on the girl, the one he wanted to see as soon as he entered the door, but did not dare to look.
She Tingting stood there, her figure was ****, but there was a trace of murder on her body, and her eyes collided with him, like a cold knife flying straight into her heart.
Her gaze was so strange and indifferent, Ling Yuan only felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat and sank suddenly.
"Small..." He opened his mouth to say something, but found that his voice was astringent.
"Miss." Lingbao only thought that Gu Ba Niang was still angry with Ling Yuan, and the palms and backs of her hands were full of meat, and she couldn't bear it, so she let go of her brother, ran over and shook Gu Ba Niang's arm, and begged in a low voice, "Miss, don't be angry with my brother, it's all my brother's fault, you can do whatever you want him to do, just forgive him this time. ”
Gu Bainiang's expression didn't move, she just stared at the Lingyuan standing opposite.
She was looking at herself, but Ling Yuan felt that the gaze penetrated her and did not fall on her.
She.... Don't want to see yourself anymore?
"You don't have a brother" Gu Bainiang retracted her gaze, her expression becoming even more indifferent.
Lingyuan and Lingbao were stunned when they heard this.
