The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

The group finally arrived at the county town before the city gate closed. Lin Qiuer hurriedly only had time to look up and glance at the two big words on the city gate, "Lingao".

After entering the city, Song Ye saw that it was getting late. He whispered a few words to Lin Nanye and said goodbye to everyone else before leaving in a hurry.

"Miss Lin, it's getting late now. Please come back with us and stay for one night." Gu Anqing invited sincerely, "There are not many people in our family, so there are many empty courtyards. If you don't want to come into contact with other people, I will ask the housekeeper to arrange a courtyard for you that you can enter and exit from the side door."

Lin Qiuer originally wanted to refuse, but she could not find a reason to refuse to stay overnight at Gu's house.

This time she came to the county town, in addition to looking for her eldest brother, she also wanted to see if she could cure the poison in the old man of the Gu family so that they could help find her eldest brother.

Besides, it was already very late. It was her first time in the county town. Looking at her two brothers' surprised expressions after entering the city gate, they didn't seem like people who came to the county town often.

Therefore, Lin Qiu'er agreed and said, "Then the three of us brothers and sisters will stay at your house for one night."

Gu Anqing tried his best to invite Lin Qiuer and her two siblings to stay at his home, but he also had his own selfish motives.

He was poisoned by the men in black during the fight, which resulted in his failure to find the herbs the doctor mentioned in the Nalan Mountains.

But perhaps the witch doctor who has lived in the Nalan Mountains for generations and possesses medical skills that are admired by doctors from outside the world can find a way to cure the poison in my grandfather's body?

The two of them each had their own plans, but they immediately agreed on the idea of ​​staying overnight.

Chang Qing carried Gu Anqing on his back and led the way in front, with Lin Qiuer and her two siblings following closely behind.

Lin Nanyue asked in confusion: "Little sister, why should we stay at his house? I think it would be safer to stay at an inn."

Lin Qiuer glanced at him, put her index finger between her lips, then looked at Gu Anqing and Chang Qing who were walking in front of her, and shook her finger again to signal him not to ask any more questions.

From the moment Lin Qiu'er agreed to stay at Gu's house, Lin Nanye had been wondering about her intentions. Seeing her stop Nanyue from asking questions, he was more certain of his guess.

Although Lin Nanyue was full of doubts, she had to shut up after seeing her younger sister's gesture and began to look at the lively scenes on both sides of the street.

The three of them followed silently behind. Lin Nanyue and Lin Nanyue were only sixteen years old. They had been living in the village before. This was their first time in the county town.

The scenery was completely different from that in the village, and everything I saw was new and interesting.

The shops on both sides are bustling with customers coming and going. There are peddlers carrying their loads and shouting everywhere. Occasionally, at the entrance of the alley, you can see a lively food stall surrounded by many diners.

Although it was also Lin Qiuer's first time to enter the county town, unlike Lin Nanyue and Lin Nanyue, she had long been accustomed to the hustle and bustle of the bustling city.

In comparison, this county town seems much quieter.

She carefully observed the pedestrians on the street and found that there were many women walking on the street, but most of them were accompanied by someone. They wore plain clothes and their hair accessories were mostly silver hairpins and cloth towels.

As for men, there are all kinds of people, tall and short, fat and thin, old and young, and they wear many styles of clothes, but generally the patterns are monotonous.

Lin Qiuer thought, it seems that the restrictions on women in this era are not too strict, but the clothing is rather monotonous, or maybe it is like this because this is the border.

She couldn't help but look forward to tasting the local delicacies. If she had time, she would definitely go to the stalls that Chang Qing introduced to try the flavors. As the saying goes, a small place is hidden in the city, so she could consider opening a few shops here.

Then next time something similar to what happened with their eldest brother disappearing happens, they won't be restricted by the lack of ways to obtain effective information.

As the number of shops on both sides of the street decreased, the pedestrians on the street changed from ordinary people to people riding horses or riding carriages.

Lin Qiuer thought that this was the street where the local powerful people gathered.

But Lin Nanye and Lin Nanyue suddenly found that the flow of people had decreased. They were a little confused, but their bodies involuntarily moved closer to Lin Qiuer and entered a state of alert.

"Don't worry, we're almost at Mr. Gu's house. Everyone be careful, as long as you don't deliberately cause trouble, there shouldn't be any problem." Lin Qiuer said.

After hearing this, the two of them returned to normal. But Lin Nanye still asked curiously, "Little sister, how did you know?"

At this time, Changqing also stopped, turned around and asked with a curious look.

"Yes, Miss Lin, how did you know you were coming to our house?"

Even Gu Anqing couldn't help but cast an interested look. His eyes were gleaming with curiosity and inquiry. He was attracted by Lin Qiu'er's words and couldn't help wanting to get to know her better.

Lin Qiu'er looked at this group of curious people and felt a little speechless. She walked past Lin Nanye and Lin Nanyue and came to Gu Anqing and Changqing.

"Is it hard to guess? Most of the people walking on that busy street before were vendors and pedestrians, while most of the people walking here are riding carriages and horses. Mr. Gu is the son of the garrison commander, so it would be strange if he didn't live here, right?"

Gu Anqing sighed inwardly that Miss Lin's observation skills were truly sharp.

"Miss Lin is really amazing." Chang Qing praised generously, "Why didn't I think of that?"

The Lin Nanye brothers ran to Lin Qiuer with stars twinkling in their eyes. Although they did not praise her openly, the expressions on their faces showed that they had praised her countless times in their hearts.

Lin Qiu'er shook her head helplessly and urged, "Aren't you tired? I am really tired. After traveling for such a long time, I just want to find a place to have a good rest and have a full meal."

"Changqing, didn't you hear what Miss Lin said? Hurry up and lead the way." Gu Anqing also saw the fatigue on her face and ordered.

Chang Qing also saw that Lin Qiu'er looked more tired than before, and heard the young master blaming him for not being considerate enough, so he immediately bowed his head and apologized, "I'm sorry, I was negligent. I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now. We'll be there in two more alleys."

Chang Qing quickened his pace and led the way, with Lin Qiuer and her siblings following closely behind.

As expected, after walking through two alleys, a majestic mansion came into view. Two stone lions squatted majestically at the door, silently guarding the entire mansion. There were also two guards at the door holding long spears and wearing swords on their waists.

"We're here, we're finally back." Chang Qing was so excited when he saw the gate that he almost cried, "Master, we're home."

Gu Anqing felt a little embarrassed. If he could walk, he really wanted to kick Chang Qing and make him stop his effeminate behavior.

"Master, Master is back." Gu Zhong shouted in surprise when he saw the two of them. He then reached out and knocked on the door, shouting inside, "Open the door quickly, Master is back home."

As soon as the voice fell, the door opened with a click.

A middle-aged man ran out from the door and saw Gu Anqing being carried by Chang Qing. He ran to them in a few steps and asked anxiously, "Is the young master injured? Is it serious? Is it serious?"
