Marrying Gold and Jade

"Miss, Master Ji has been waiting outside for a while. Now that you are dressed up, why don't you go out?"

"Yes, young lady, we have been looking forward to this marriage banquet for many years. If you don't go now, all the good husbands will be picked by other young ladies!"

After regaining consciousness, Lin Yu sat in front of the familiar dressing table.

Three figures were reflected in the bronze mirror, on the left and right were her personal maids, Zhu Lian and Qing Dai.

She stood up suddenly and almost overturned the dressing table in front of her.

"What's wrong, girl?" Fortunately, Qingdai was quick to hold her.

Zhu Lian also stepped forward and asked, "Are you okay?"

Lin Yu's shoulders were shaking. The afterimages of swords and blood flashed before her eyes. She shrank back and wanted to hide under the dressing table.

But she was carefully supported by two maids and pushed back into the rose chair.

Someone whispered in my ear: "Tell Master Buji that the girl is not feeling well."

"Lin Ji?" She keenly caught the name, "Is he outside?"

Zhu Lian said, "I've been waiting for half an hour."

Lin Yu raised his hand and placed it in front of his eyes. His skin was not cracked, nor did it have blisters of varying sizes. It was still the delicate skin that he had maintained since childhood.

So...she's dead.

But he came back.

In the short fifteen years of her previous life, she and Lin Ji had only gone out alone once, and that was for the summer banquet of the Silk Li family.

"I'm not going."

"Ah?" Qingdai stretched out the last syllable in disbelief.

It was a dating banquet. In the previous life, at the banquet, Lin Ji left me on the pretext of reminiscing about old times with classmates, and even made a face on the way home; not to mention that the person I chose, Tan Jinghe, was even more disgusting.

"Go out and tell Lin Ji to leave."

If I remember correctly, my father will bring Wanying home in three days.

Even someone as proud as Lin Ji has become her slave. Even if she can avoid her old friends, she may still make the same mistakes again.

She didn't want to choose a husband, and she didn't want to see Lin Ji.

But things did not go as planned. Qingdai returned soon after delivering the message, and a male voice outside the door asked Lin Yu if she had finished dressing.

The door suddenly opened.

"What are you angry about?"

This was the first sentence he said after meeting Lin Ji again.

The voice is flat and there is almost no emotion in it.

The young man stood by the door. His brocade robe was plain in style, but it just matched the lotus-petal jade crown on his head. At this moment, his narrow and slightly raised eyes pressed down, showing an oppressive feeling for no reason.

When Lin Yu saw him, he couldn't help but recall the fifteen years of his previous life.

The relationship between the two can be summarized in one sentence: warm welcome to a cold butt.

She's the hot face.

"I'm not angry. Lord Lin, you are well-read. Don't you know the difference between men and women? What's the point of breaking into my boudoir like this?"

She used to call people "Brother Ji", but today she deliberately called him "Master Lin".

The man could tell that she was angry, but he was clearly the one who had been waiting outside the yard for half an hour, so he didn't know where her anger came from.

His brows were still furrowed, but he explained first: "I asked, and you were already dressed."

It wasn't that he barged in rashly.

This was indeed the case. The girl sat upright on the rose chair, her skirt was light pink, and scented gauze was lingering around her feet like smoke and mist. At this moment, her raised face showed a look of aloofness, which made her look more and more unlike that of the mortal world.

Lin Ji always avoided this "sister", but he could not ignore that she was charming and affectionate, with a graceful charm between her eyebrows.

We also know that she has been spoiled since childhood because of her beauty, and everyone around her pampers her.

Thinking of this, he could only slow down his tone: "Hurry up, it will be too late if you continue to make trouble."

Lin Yu opened his eyes wide instantly.

That wasn't a soft word, but in the fifteen years of her previous life, she had never heard Lin Ji coax her in such a gentle voice.

What is this? Does he like others to embarrass him?

"I said I'm not going!" She simply turned back and asked, "How long are you going to stay in my room?"

The man at the door pursed his lips and took a step towards her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she took a step, Lin Yu's rouge box hit her.

The round jade box and the water-red rouge were spread out on the corners of his robe.

Before I could ask her what she was doing, I heard her scold me delicately: "You are sick!"

Not intimidating enough, but rather coquettish.

At his feet, Zhu Lian squatted down and wiped it for him, but the red stain was completely stained on his brocade robe, which might not be washed away.

Lin Ji raised his eyelids and saw the same color on the cheeks of the girl opposite him.

After all, he was the proud child in his memory. His face darkened and he turned and walked out without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the room became even more tense. Zhu Lian and Qing Dai exchanged glances with each other, and neither dared to provoke Lin Yu.

It was Qingdai who was bolder and asked, "Young lady, if you didn't plan to go out, why did you get up so early in the morning and spend two hours getting dressed?"

Lin Yu stood up and asked, "Who said it was in vain?"

If she comes back, will the little mute also...

Normally, four maids would carry her out in a sedan chair from Yaoguang Courtyard to the main gate, but today she didn't even ask Zhu Lian and Qing Dai to follow her, and ran to the front yard alone.

She found the little mute under the winding corridor in the front yard.

A group of servants were moving Gaoyue Dujuan to the eaves for shade. It was the first time that Lin Yu looked at this person carefully.

He should be less than 20 years old, tall and strong. Fortunately, although his shoulders are broad, his waist is tight. He does not look rough or stupid, but rather tall and well-proportioned.

No wonder I forgot about it. He was so skinny when I picked him up and brought him home. Who knew he had grown so tall now?

Lin Yu just stared at him intently, and finally for a moment his eyes met someone's.

"Ambiguous——"

But he hurriedly avoided it.

I wanted to call him again, but I didn't know his name, and it seemed inappropriate to call a mute.

Fortunately, the housekeeper Uncle Qi passed by and Lin Yu hurriedly called him back.

"You are talking about Dali, right? The master gave him this name when you picked him up from the outskirts of the city."

vigorously?

It doesn't sound good at all, and is not as real as the little mute.

"Can I ask him to work in my yard?"

There are twelve maids in Yaoguang Courtyard, but no servants. Lin Yu knows that this is to guard against people with evil intentions like the one just now.

It was naturally inappropriate for a man to enter the girl's courtyard. Uncle Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "Of course you can."

"Uncle Qi is still good to me!"

Lin Yu happily walked forward, holding up her skirt, and while he was bending over to put the flowerpot down, she raised her head and said to him, "You belong to me, come with me now."

The tall young man paused slightly, stood up straight, and did not dare to look at Lin Yu. He avoided his gaze and was reluctant to take a step forward.
