All encounters are reunions after a long absence, Ling An couldn't help but cough lightly a few times, Ling Dingyuan asked her worriedly, "An'er, what's wrong with you?" Isn't it uncomfortable? After speaking, he patted Ling An on the back. Ling An was puzzled, her throat suddenly became dry and smoking, she suddenly thought that she had just approached the coughing woman, she was afraid that she was infected, so she pushed Ling Dingyuan away and said, "I'm fine, Daddy!" ”

As he spoke, he coughed again.

The sound of footsteps came from far and near, and Ling An hurriedly made a gesture to silence and retreated to the edge of the doorpost.

Huang Quanxu walked with Guo Shaoyou's left arm, Ji Yougui's identity as the main book was slightly lower, and he only walked side by side with Jingsong after the two, Ling An was afraid that the prefect would think that she had the same, so he lowered his head without raising his eyelids.

"Your Excellency!" Ling Dingyuan got up and walked to the door, clasping his fists at Huang Quan and shouting.

Huang Quan made a "please" gesture to Guo Shaoyou, asked him to take a seat, and then walked in side by side with Ling Dingyuan, and whispered: "This is an adult from the capital!" ”

Ling Dingyuan hurriedly clapped his sleeves and arms with his hands crossed, knelt down and saluted: "Ling Dingyuan, a grass person, has seen an adult!" ”

Guo Shaoyou saw that the middle-aged man kneeling in the hall was wearing a navy blue jacket and a vest with red and black flowers, dressed neatly and neatly, and couldn't help but look at him differently, and heard that he was also surnamed Ling, and I was afraid that Ling An was from the same family, so his tone was much better, and he said in a cool voice: "Please get up, Master Ling!" ”

Guo Shaoyou was helped by Huang Quan to sit down, he pressed down with a fan, and asked everyone to sit down and talk.

Huang Quan and Ling Dingyuan sat on the east side in turn, but at this time, Ling An couldn't help it anymore, holding the handkerchief and covering his mouth incessantly, he still coughed heavily, and even his body trembled.

Ling Dingyuan couldn't help but look at his beloved daughter, a little worried, Ling An stepped back and hid behind the pillar, so as not to teach people to pay too much attention to her.

"I heard from Master Ji, Master Ling is a courtyard expert in this area, and he came to Tanzhou from Chang'an for the first time, and he wanted to find a place to live, I don't know what Master Ling thinks?" He took a sip of his tea, but his eyes wandered to the vicinity of the pillar.

It was obviously a familiar voice, as if he had heard it somewhere, he was suspicious in his heart, but he still didn't dare to be sure, the edge of the pillar was exposed by the corner of the black color, and the tip of a pair of black head shoes.

Ling Dingyuan thought for a moment and replied: "There are many mountains, forests, springs and streams in Tanzhou, especially the best landscape in Anyuanfang, and Anyuanfang is the most suitable scenery in Liulin Lane, with small bridges and flowing water, forests and trees, if adults are in need, grass people can help adults find a house in Liulin Lane, I know a friend who specializes in renting houses, he has been doing it for more than ten years, and he is a person in our area!" “

Huang Quan heard Ling Dingyuan's words, and was secretly jealous in his heart, Ling Dingyuan was taking this opportunity to entrap Guo Shaoyou!

But he thought about it, if Guo Shaoyou was happy and willing to settle down in Liulin Lane, then he would be able to have more intersections with him in the future, and he would also have a hundred benefits and no harm, so he helped Ling Dingyuan to get up:

"Master Ling, I remember that you are also old friends with Mr. Shu, a famous master of stacked stones, can you also invite him to design the courtyard when the time comes?"

"That's nature!" Ling Dingyuan swore an oath, his brows raised, Shu Yuliang has been a friend for many years, and the two of them get together three or four times a year, he is very confident in this little favor, and he will come in person.

Guo Shaoyou heard the two of them talk about this, so he became a little interested, and asked, "But Shu Yuliang?" ”

This person can use a small amount of stones, in a very limited space, to summarize and refine the peaks and caves in the natural landscape, so that it can change in all ends, the cliffs and mountains are towering, the ponds and rivers reflect each other, and the deep mountains and ravines are like nature. There is the wonder of "mountains and rivers at hand, mountains and forests at hand". It is also somewhat famous in the capital, and Guo Shaoyou remembers this name.

Ling Dingyuan took over the conversation and said, "Yes!" ”

Guo Shaoyou suspected that his memory was a little disordered for a while, so he moved his eyes from the pillar to Ling Dingyuan, and said lightly, "Isn't he a Jiangnan Dongdao clan?" How can you get acquainted with him" There was some interrogation in his tone, and some professional inertia was in it, and when he was in charge of the army in the past, if he caught a prisoner, he would not let go of any suspicious information in his words during interrogation.

Ling Dingyuan saw that Guo Shaoyou's expression had changed, and hurriedly explained: "Xiaomin often went there to do business when he was young, and he used to sell a batch of leather goods to Shufu, and then gradually became acquainted with Mr. Shu, because we both like to do some landscape research and became close friends. ”

The explanation was the way, without a trace of error, Guo Shaoyou nodded reassuringly.

But he has never been very interested in this kind of stacked stone art, but it is dispensable.

Suddenly, there were a few coughing sounds from behind the pillar, and Ling An felt a fishy sweet smell permeating his mouth, and then he unfolded the veil to see that there was a trace of blood on it.

Guo Shaoyou finally couldn't help it, and said loudly: "Who is behind the pillar?" ”

Ling An was asked by this voice, and he was a little untenable, for a while, his heart was in turmoil, and he just wanted to flee quickly, and regretted in his heart: "I didn't come with Daddy if I knew it!" ”

Ling Dingyuan couldn't figure out what Guo Shaoyou meant, in order to protect Ling An, he suddenly got up to block Ling An behind some pillars slightly, and replied: "My lord, it's a little guy in the small people's mansion, and he was fine when he came out in the morning, but somehow he suddenly suffered from a cough. ”

Ji Yougui, the chief bookkeeper sitting opposite, heard the word cough, and the woman who left without coughing suddenly appeared in his mind, guessing that Ling Anxu was close to her and accidentally contracted it, so he helped explain: "My lord, just now Xia Guan dealt with a small case here, this little guy has helped a lot, I am afraid that I accidentally lived a common people's cough disease." ”

Ling Dingyuan cast Ji Yougui a grateful look.

Guo Shaoyou listened to the explanation, but he was silent, and his face was a little incomprehensible.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Ling Anxin was very shocked, and he didn't dare to come out, but he couldn't help the discomfort of his body, and coughed again.

Guo Shaoyou didn't speak yet, but Huang Quan couldn't hold his breath at first, and complained to Ling Dingyuan: "Master Ling, since the little guy is sick, you should go back to the house to have a look, this flower hall is not big, if you are afraid of passing the illness to others......" He squinted his eyes and peeked at Guo Shaoyou, but his expression still did not change at all.

Ling Dingyuan apologized repeatedly, "Yes, yes, what Lord Huang said is that Xiaomin was negligent!" With a look of apology, Ling An didn't feel good in his heart behind the pillar, but he knew that he had to leave quickly, so as not to cause trouble to Ling Dingyuan again.

Thinking about it, she half-covered her red lips and came out.

Guo Shaoyou stared at her closely, just by her figure, he was sure that she was Ling An, and then looked at the slender jade finger like a shaved onion, which was also painted in a bright Kou Dan color, and wrapped it in a circle with a handkerchief and rolled it on his hand.
