Marrying Gold and Jade

Xuan Ye came to look for Zhu Lian several times. On this day, Lin Ji was not at home, and Lin Yu happened to hear him at the window.

"I have something important to do today, not here to bother you."

The young man under the window spoke in a sad tone, which made Lin Yu prick up his ears immediately.

Xuan Ye is the secret guard beside Xu Jinxuan, he and Zhu Lian... ?

Unfortunately, Zhu Lian did not reveal too much, and only urged: "Then tell me."

"My master is not living in the Wu Palace now. He is still at the old place on the top of Yunwu Mountain. He has specifically instructed that if Miss Lin's poison attacks again, he should go up the mountain to look for him."

Lin Yu hadn't seen him for a full month since they parted on the eve of their wedding. Now when she thinks of him again, she can't describe the feeling.

I can only think that Yunwu Mountain is better, at least it is much closer than the Prince Wu’s Palace.

This love poison is a hidden danger. It is fine now, but it may suddenly flare up like a disease without knowing when.

But this news also brought Lin Yu a little distress. She had no intention of listening to the subsequent entanglement between the two. She turned around quietly and leaned on the beauty couch.

She is now married to Lin Ji. If she gets angry later and wants to find Xu Jinxuan, should she hide it from Lin Ji to avoid causing trouble, or should she just come clean?

Both methods have their own flaws. Lin Yu shook his head and chose not to think about what had not happened yet.

In July, the government office was busy with collecting summer taxes and counting taxes, so Lin Ji had much less time to spend with her.

Lin Yu didn't mind it either. He found ways to entertain himself by tending to the greenhouse at home, flipping through music scores, and often going out for a stroll on the street to buy some useless but interesting things.

It was a day after the rain and the weather was much cooler. She changed into light clothes and went out to the street with her red curtains and indigo.

She is the county magistrate of Huating, and when she walks on the street she has the illusion of "understanding the people's sentiments".

A small stall selling jewelry caught her attention. The girl tending the stall was not very enthusiastic about soliciting customers. She just watched customers choose casually. The patterns of the jewelry she made were also strange.

For example, the hairpin that Lin Yu saw at first glance had a green snake coiled on the head of the hairpin, and the entire green hairpin looked like a snake.

The other hair accessories also did not feature flowers, but instead had patterns of poisonous insects such as scorpions.

The carving is good and the gems are dazzling, but it is still too different.

Lin Yu thought about it and decided to put the green snake hairpin in her hand back to its original place.

It was almost the same hand as before, and the hairpin was held by another hand that was larger, thin and tall.

"Quote a price."

When the familiar voice filled his ears, Lin Yu's heart trembled, but he was so scared that he forgot to stand up from the ground. He squatted on the spot and didn't dare to turn around to look at people.

But there was a little blue snake that hadn't seen her for a long time. It was so excited that it jumped directly from its owner's wrist and wrapped itself around her wrist familiarly.

The girl tending the stall was originally not in high spirits. Those who asked about the prices almost never wanted to buy. They just wanted to see the fun of it and see how much she dared to offer for these strange-looking things.

But when she saw her loved one Xiaolan, her eyes widened and she immediately became interested, "You snake..."

She cleared her throat and showed her sincerity: "If you give me this snake, I can give you the whole stall."

Xu Jinxuan smiled and shook his head, "It recognizes its master, you can't tame it."

The girl seemed a little unwilling to give up, but a snake of such a rare color was hard to find, and she thought the owner would not let it go easily.

So he leaned back on his small chair and held up a finger, "One ounce of gold."

One ounce of gold...

Lin Yu pursed her lips, guessing that meeting Xu Jinxuan was her first opening this year.

Her legs and feet were slightly numb from squatting, so she stood up and gently pulled at Xiaolan on her wrist. However, Xiaolan thought that Lin Yu was playing with him, and spit out its snake tongue as before, and even licked her fingertips.

The attendant beside him paid the money for Xu Jinxuan. He stood up holding the hairpin. Finally, Lin Yu and he looked into each other's eyes for the first time.

She felt uncomfortable being stared at. It was clear that Xu Jinxuan did not do anything, and even just looked at her without saying anything, but Lin Yu still felt uncomfortable all over.

It can't be that the love poison suddenly broke out.

Lin Yu comforted himself and secretly fiddled with the little blue on his wrist, but it only made it move from the left hand to the right hand.

Helplessly, she raised her hand and became the one who took the initiative to speak, "Your snake."

The two stood in front of the stall for a long time. They were both men and women with outstanding looks. The girl guarding the stall suddenly asked, "Didn't you say you recognized the master? I don't think he would hurt anyone."

Since she couldn't buy it or exchange it, she really wanted to try it out, so she didn't give up and gave it a try.

Xu Jinxuan sneered, and although he responded to others, his eyes were fixed on Lin Yu's face without blinking.

"It's psychic, maybe it likes her."

The tone was ambiguous and the girl was not stupid. She thought about it for a moment and realized that Lin Yu had picked up the hairpin just now and it was bought by the man as soon as she put it down. He either approached Lin Yu on purpose, or they knew each other.

Seeing them looking at each other in silence and acting awkwardly, it was most likely the latter and they were having a quarrel now.

She instantly felt bored and took the money and ignored the man.

Lin Yu failed to pull Xiao Lan down, and Xu Jinxuan was pretending to be unfamiliar with her, which made her feel at a loss.

She only remembered that Xiao Lan had never gotten along with Lin Ji and had bitten him several times when she was at home. Although she had feelings for Xiao Lan, a snake was not as important as her own man. She absolutely could not bring it back to cause trouble for Lin Ji.

Besides, if I really took it back, wouldn’t it be telling everyone clearly: While you are busy, I am going to meet Xu Jinxuan.

No, absolutely not!

"Help me get it down."

Every time Xiao Lan pestered her too much, it would obey as soon as Xu Jinxuan showed up.

So she gave up the argument, took the person to the side, and handed her jade-white little hand to the person.

Xu Jinxuan remained unmoved, and even said coldly: "After a while, when it wants to come down, it will come down naturally."

He added, not knowing why, "He missed you so much."

Lin Yu froze in his attempts to get rid of it.

She was trying very hard to control herself, not to think about anything that had happened with this man. It was too presumptuous, and she felt sorry for Lin Ji if she thought about it.

She could only keep a calm face as much as possible, lowering her eyes and asking, "What do you want to do?"

Xu Jinxuan was more than half a head taller than her, and they were one step apart. He could see the struggle between the girl's brows from top to bottom.

Also, she had her hair tied up in a bun.

"Put this on."

After saying this, he went forward and tried to pull out her hairpin without permission, just like before.

"I don't want to." Lin Yu stepped back again and again, increasing the distance between them. "Xu Jinxuan, I'm already married. Can you please stop doing things that can cause misunderstandings?"

The man didn't move for a moment.

He frowned and thought for a moment, his eyes narrowed and attracted the small mole at the corner of his eye.

After a long while, he sneered, "So what?"

She's married, so what.

He missed her and wanted to come and see her.
