Marrying Gold and Jade

Until Uncle Qi said, "Listen to the young lady from now on."

Only then did Lin Yu take the person away.

After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, the little mute had a handsome face. When he lowered his head and felt awkward, his eyelashes blinked restlessly, which made him look lovable.

While feeling satisfied, she couldn't help but think of the bloody holes all over his body, but he still had to protect herself tightly.

In fact, at that time, even if he didn't rush up...

"Don't mention it, it looks pretty good after tidying up!"

Qingdai spoke, suddenly interrupting her sadness.

Zhu Lian stepped forward again to tidy up the man's clothes. The young man seemed uncomfortable and quietly took a step back.

Until Lin Yu said, "Come and sit down."

The first thing she did when she received the call was to ask a doctor to come over.

Doctor Luo's given name is Qi, and she is a female doctor. She is the one who treats any headache or fever of the female members of the Lin family. Although this time she is treating the little mute's throat, Lin Yu still invited someone she knows to come.

The little mute was also very obedient. He would raise his head when told to and open his mouth when told to.

After going through the complete set of diagnostic procedures, Luo Qi's brows were still furrowed.

"Try the acupuncture first."

Lin Yu was sitting next to the man and saw that he looked painful. He opened his lips several times but no sound came out.

"Does it hurt?"

When asked, he shook his head again.

Lin Yu reached out from under the table and tentatively covered his slightly rough palm.

When I was sick and feeling uncomfortable, my mother would also hold my hand like this, but her hands were too big, so Lin Yu felt more like she was putting her hand into his palm.

But after only a moment's touch, the little mute dodged in panic, and even Luo Qi's hand that was applying the acupuncture began to tremble.

Fortunately, she didn't notice anything unusual and just took the silver needle out of the man's arm.

Wiping the sweat off his face, he said, "None of the acupuncture points I tried just now worked. Miss, you should probably find a Gu doctor to take a look."

"What is that?" Lin Yu temporarily put aside the previous episode and asked quickly.

"Refining Gu is a secret art. It is said that Gu doctors have the miraculous effect of bringing people back to life. Gu doctors were quite popular in the past."

"Then where should I go to find a Gu doctor?"

Luo Qi shook her head again, "More than a decade ago, a tragic case of poison killing the heir to the throne occurred in Kyoto. After that, the practice of poison was banned, and poison doctors no longer came out to show their faces."

"But as far as I know, most of the Gu doctors nowadays use snakes to poison people. You can go to a place where there are many snakes."

……snake?

It's such a eerie and cold thing that I shudder just thinking about it.

"I have also seen it in a medical book. There is a kind of poisonous snake commonly known as 'open-mouthed snake', which can cure muteness caused by the throat and tongue. Miss, do you have the pen and ink? I will draw it for you."

Half an hour later.

Lin Yu was worried about the "portrait". The snake's body was golden and had a strange shape, with a small head and a wide tail. No one knew what the soft red flesh on its back was.

Fortunately, Dr. Luo said that it doesn’t have to be eaten raw, and the shed snake skin can be used as medicine.

A young and handsome man's face flashed by in her peripheral vision. She didn't ask him to stand up, and the little mute just sat obediently beside her.

"Don't worry, I will definitely find a mouth snake and make you speak again."

She heard during the examination just now that the little mute became mute at the age of five, and had learned to speak before that.

The man was not happy to hear this, but raised his arms and gestured.

Lin Yu pursed her lips and said, "I don't understand."

He could only communicate through sign language. Over time, people around him also learned a few words, but Lin Yu had never had any contact with him before, so naturally he knew nothing.

Fortunately, the paper and pen were still on the table, so he pointed again.

"Can you write?"

The little mute nodded.

Not only can he write, but he can also write quite neatly.

[It’s okay if you don’t see it well]

Lin Yu immediately shook his head: "No, I must cure you."

A bit too firm.

The boy held the goat-hair brush between his finger bones. As he had been working in an outer courtyard for many years, the joints of his fingertips were thicker and not as beautiful, but powerful enough.

Before he could ask why, Lin Yu said, "Let me give you a new name. The original one doesn't quite suit you."

He raised his wrist again, and the words [大力] appeared on the paper.

"Yes, that's it. I don't like it."

He nodded and wrote a word.

[deep]

Lin Yu asked: "Is this the name your parents gave you?"

The little mute nodded again.

Lin Yu took the pen from him without saying a word.

The soft fingertips inadvertently slid across the back of his hand. It was clearly not intentional, but it made his skin numb and his ears blushed.

When his wandering eyes settled down again, he saw an especially delicate character "Ming" in front of the character "Yuan".

Mingyuan.

"When I was a child, my mother told me a story from the Records of the Grand Historian, which said that some people 'do not make a name for themselves, but once they do, they will become a sensation'. I hope you can also make a name for yourself."

"I usually call you A Yuan, okay?"

The young man saw the expectation in her beautiful eyes and nodded seriously.

Then he saw her sitting up straight and asked, "So, A Yuan, do you remember those things?"

Remember we died together.

She stared into the eyes of the person opposite her, trying to find some tacit understanding between them.

But in the end, there was only a growing feeling of helplessness.

Lin Yu knew it, he didn't remember it, and he didn't know what he was asking.

So in his eyes now, she is just the eldest daughter of the Lin family and has had no contact with him in the past ten years.

It's quite strange to be nice to him.

"It's okay. I'm a little tired and talking nonsense."

She pretended to be relaxed, and Mingyuan hurriedly picked up the pen and wrote: You are disappointed.

Of course there will be disappointments, but it would be best if there was someone who understood everything and could fight alongside you.

But it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember, at least he can be trusted.

Lin Yu smiled at him reassuringly and found an old dressing box in the cupboard.

Inside were all the jewellery she had worn as a child. She picked out a red rope and removed a bell from her hairpin, threaded it through the red rope to make a simple bracelet.

Then she tied the red string around his wrist and said, "Until your throat is healed, let my bell speak for you."

The girl's things are very delicate, and they don't look out of place when tied to Mingyuan.

Even cozy.

With a flick of the honey-colored wrist, the copper beads in the bell made a crisp sound that spread throughout the room.

Lin Yu smiled at him, and Ming Yuan also imitated her and raised the corners of his lips.

It was almost time for lunch, and the Lin couple had gone out for a social event.

Lin Yu thought that Lin Ji must have gone to the Li family's summer banquet alone, and she was the only one left at the house.

"Pass the meal over here. I want to eat inside."

So Lin Ji waited in vain for another quarter of an hour in the dining room.

Lin Yu refused to attend the banquet. He was not interested in such occasions, so he went back to his room after leaving her Yaoguang Courtyard.

At this moment, he was not sure whether Lin Yu was angry with him and refused to eat at the same table with him.

"Young lady is very happy today," until Uncle Qi told him, "she just received a servant into the courtyard."

...Servant?
