XXXVII. The xylophone that marries far away
"Leng Ling!"
Yu'er nervously grabbed Leng Ling and asked him not to be angry, and Leng Ling let go of his hand unwillingly.
"You guys!"
The aching servant pointed at Leng Ling and was about to scold, but Yu'er quietly took out the silver taels and stuffed them into his hand.
"Your Excellency, it's good." The officer's face instantly showed joy, and his complexion softened a lot, and he turned his back to the other officials and secretly put the silver taels in his pocket.
"Next, you!"
The official raised his head and pointed at Gu Ruobai very arrogantly, signaling him to go over and search his body, Gu Ruobai glanced at the official very unhappily, and was about to get angry, but was stopped by Yu'er.
"Look, my lord, we are in a hurry, can we ......?"
Yu'er took out another ingot of silver, and the officer's eyes instantly lit up, he picked up the silver and checked it, and the corners of his mouth were almost to his ears.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." After saying that, he made way for them, and shouted to the officials inside: "Let go!"
The four got into the carriage and headed for the city.
On both sides of the lively market, a dazzling array of goods are lined up in the shop stalls, women are bargaining for firewood, rice, oil and salt, children are chasing after me with toys, shouting and laughing are intertwined, a peaceful scene.
Yu'er leaned in front of the window, her eyes never left the people in the bazaar, those people's simple faces, there was the most heart-warming smile, there was a peaceful and happy appearance that she had never seen, Yu'er had mixed feelings in her heart, if her brother was still in this world, she must be living this enviable life with her now.
The carriage went around several alleys before it stopped in front of an alley, and the four of them got out of the car, but Leng Ling led the horse back.
"Master, I'll join you right now."
Gu Ruobai nodded and said to Yu'er, "Let's go."
Yu'er originally thought that Brother Gu would take them to the inn to stay, but she didn't expect to come to a mansion, and on the magnificent plaque, the word Lin Mansion was particularly eye-catching.
Yu'er was puzzled: "Brother Gu, where is this?"
"You'll know when you're in." Gu Ruobai directly sold Guanzi, and it was inconvenient for Yu'er to say anything more.
As soon as he stepped into the steps of the Lin Mansion, the door of the Lin Mansion opened slightly, and the neat maids under the courtyard stood in two rows, bowing their heads respectfully and saluting.
"Greetings to Prince Gu."
The sound of the two rows of maids brushing together made Yu'er and Qingyan's eyes widen instantly, and they were hanging outside the gate, not daring to move forward.
Gu Ruobai raised his eyebrows: "Why are you stunned?" After saying that, he walked in with his hands behind his back.
"Brother Ruobai!"
In the courtyard, a touch of emerald figure came to her, she wore a light green cloud cigarette shirt embroidered with elegant orchids, held milk cloud soft yarn, water fu-colored yarn wrapped around the waist, cloud buns, a hollow orchid hairpin was obliquely inserted between the fairy hair buns, her face was as charming as the moon, and her eyes were shining.
Yu'er only felt stunned, there was such a beautiful woman in this world, and she was amazed in her heart!
"Brother Ruobai, you're finally here."
The woman held Gu Ruobai's wrist, her eyes full of joy.
"Qin'er, don't be rude."
A magnetic voice sounded behind the woman, and the woman pouted, so she had to let go of Gu Ruobai's hand and retreat behind the man.
"Brother Gu, it's been a long time."
The gentle and elegant man bowed his hands, and his gestures revealed an aura of humility.
"Brother Lin Yuan, excuse me."
Gu Ruobai replied with a salute, but the xylophone on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and urged Lin Yuan: "Xianggong, let Brother Ruobai enter the house, Brother Ruobai is tired of traveling, and it has been hard along the way."
"Lin is stupid, Brother Gu, please."
"It's ......"
Muqin looked at Yu'er and Qingyan behind Gu Ruobai, and hesitated. Yu'er was about to answer, but Gu Ruobai answered: "This is my sworn brother, Xiaoyu, this is the maid, Qingyan."
Yu'er was suddenly surprised and couldn't say a word, so she had to look at Gu Ruobai in a daze. Xylophone stared at Yu'er for a long time before he said: "Brother Ruobai, your sworn brother is becoming more and more smart!" Come on in! After saying that, he smiled sweetly at Yu'er, and beckoned Yu'er into the hall, and Yu'er breathed a sigh of relief.
Stepping into the hall, Yu'er was shocked by this magnificent decoration, and the black silk nanmu plaque was hung on the red vermilion lacquer door, and the "string stream" of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing was inscribed in the middle. The hall is spacious and bright, the wall hangs calligraphy and painting, the table is placed with porcelain jade, the ancient fragrance is rich, and there is already a table of delicacies with color and fragrance in the middle.
"Brother Ruobai, when I learned that you arrived in Cangyu today, Xianggong and I would already set up a banquet to catch you and wash the dust."
The xylophone beckoned everyone to sit down, and personally brought ginseng and black chicken soup from the kitchen. When the xylophone sat down, Gu Ruobai asked lightly: "Xylophone, how have you been doing in Cangyu all these years?"
The chopsticks in the xylophone hand paused, almost slipping, she looked up at Lin Yuan, and it happened that Lin Yuan was also looking at herself, looking at each other, the two of them were affectionate, and their eyes revealed love.
"Brother Ruobai, I have never regretted the choice I made."
