Marrying Gold and Jade

Lin Yu heard his voice become brighter, and couldn't help but ask: "Are men also interested in this kind of thing?"

She only knew that the young ladies from different families liked to talk about these things when they got together, such as which girl would marry which boy, and which family's backyard was a mess.

"Don't say I'm asleep."

"Say!"

Lin Yu was really afraid that he would fall asleep, and selfishly wanted to find someone to talk to, so she quickly continued with what she had just said.

"Mother herself wanted to choose a husband for me who was of good family background and noble character. Actually, my lifesaver has good character, but he has no family background to support him."

Xu Jinxuan asked: "Have you decided to marry him?"

Lin Yu was silent for a while.

"If I were to marry right now, I think he's the best person to marry."

"In return for saving my life, will you repay me with your body?"

"no!"

The bed stool was narrow, Lin Yu carefully raised his body, "I treat him..."

She liked to grow flowers with Mingyuan. She would blush when she thought of him coming out of the bath, and she was not very angry when she mistakenly thought that he kissed her in the dark.

This must be considered as some kind of love, but after thinking about these details again and again, she chose not to say it out loud.

Xu Jinxuan took the opportunity to ask: "Do you really understand him? Do you know what he wants most?"

"Lin Yu, kindness is kindness, and love is love."

Lin Yu was speechless after being asked.

Yes.

I don't know Mingyuan's past.

I don’t know what else he likes to do besides growing flowers, and I don’t know if he has ever thought about marrying me.

He abides by his duties and never takes the initiative to go beyond them.

Does he want to be a family slave for the rest of his life?

Lin Yu felt that it was not the case.

"Any more?"

Xu Jinxuan seems to have made the final judgment on this "lifesaver".

Lin Yu concealed his feelings and thought about Lin Ji again.

"There is another one. He is my brother. He obviously doesn't like me, but he always likes to meddle in my affairs. Recently..."

Lin Yu tried to be as tactful as possible and said, "He seems to want to get close to me recently."

Here comes another one.

Xu Jinxuan even knew that person and thought about using him for his own benefit.

He only asked, "Brother?"

"No," Lin Yu hurriedly explained, fearing that he would misunderstand it as an incest scandal, "He is an adopted son of the family. He is not my blood relative, and we didn't often play together when we were young."

"But if you have the same last name, he should just be your brother."

Lin Yu thought so too.

She even thought that if they couldn't be harmonious siblings, it would be okay for them to never have any contact with each other until they died.

"Then tell me, why does he always come to control me?"

"They want to control you. Most men are like this."

"Do you have to control it even if you don't like it?"

"What do you think?"

Lin Yu stopped asking.

She felt that there was some truth in it. Xu Jinxuan was a man and must understand men's minds better than she did.

After you go back, you must explain it to the person in person.

"Anything else on your mind?"

Lin Yu replied warmly: "No more."

I even ignored the thunder as I spoke to him. Now that the rain had stopped, the thunder and lightning seemed to have stopped as well.

"Thank you for listening to me," Lin Yu lay down, "I won't disturb your rest."

Through a bed curtain, Xu Jinxuan watched her crouch down and cover herself with the quilt again.

That was my own bedding.

It doesn't seem awkward to give it to her.

……

At the hour of Mao, daylight begins to appear.

Before the reports of natural disasters from various counties arrived, Lin Ji had already brought his men to the foot of Yunwu Mountain.

Lin Yu did not return home all night.

When his foster mother hurriedly sent someone to deliver the news, he was still regretting his impulsiveness that night. He didn't know how to face it, so he simply stayed in the government office again.

But when I heard that she might have come down the mountain in the afternoon and happened to encounter the rainstorm, and that there was indeed a minor landslide in Yunwu Mountain, those worries immediately seemed nothing.

"Sir, the mountain road has been flooded. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the carriage to go up."

"The road is slippery and muddy, sir. It is better to wait six hours before climbing the mountain."

The accumulated rain from last night had not yet disappeared, and who knew if it would rain again in a while. The experienced bailiff naturally advised him to wait a little longer.

Lin Ji listened and nodded, saying, "Recover here and climb the mountain again in six hours."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, they also knew that this trip was for the prefect's sister, which was why they gathered and set out before dawn.

They all saw how precious the governor was to his sister.

Last time, for some reason, I slapped him in front of everyone, but he didn't have the heart to scold him.

It is really sensible to slow down the pace today.

But in the next moment, Lin Ji took the bamboo stick used for climbing and told Cao Shun beside him: "Look after it for me."

I actually want to climb the mountain alone.

Cao Shun guessed this would happen and passed the matter on to the leading bailiff.

Seeing Lin Ji going out in person, several yamen runners took the initiative to follow.

So in the end, Lin Ji still took the three yamen runners to climb the mountain.

He didn't know when Lin Yu came down the mountain, so he didn't know whether she stayed safely in the temple or was trapped on the mountainside by the heavy rain.

An hour later.

Although chatting in the middle of the night made people let down their guard, it made Lin Yu wake up very late.

She opened her eyes mistily and saw the light blue on her face, but she was unable to react.

That porcelain pillow is too hard. I clearly didn't use it last night. This is...

"what!!"

Xu Jinxuan came in from outside and had anticipated the scream.

Lin Yu was still lying on the bed, but there was a "huge monster" squatting beside him. He was unconscious in his sleep and didn't know how long he had been using it as a pillow.

Especially when she sat up, the snake's tail was still tightly wrapped around her waist.

"Xu Jinxuan, save me..."

The man found it very interesting when he heard her cry for help, and he slowly put the things down before walking over to her side.

"Don't you think it looks familiar?"

Lin Yu stiffened his neck and looked at the "innocent" snake head.

In fact, there is no sense of innocence, and the snake eyes with vertical pupils look cold-blooded and ruthless.

"It... I don't recognize it."

The only snake she knew was Xiao Lan.

Its color is lighter than Little Blue's, and its size is many times larger. Its soft body can even serve as a pillow for her.

But even though Xu Jinxuan said this, Lin Yu still guessed: "Is it Xiao Lan's mother?"

Xu Jinxuan laughed.

This self-willed thing, swollen after being soaked in water, rushed to be used as a pillow for people.

He was discovered by himself when he woke up in the morning, but he played dead and refused to get off Lin Yu.

If she stayed a few more days, Xu Jinxuan really suspected that Tian Shuiqing would recognize her as the master.

When they were playing yesterday, Lin Yu called it Xiao Lan. Today, it seemed to have remembered the name. When it heard the word "Xiao Lan", it moved its head to rub her chest.

Lin Yu was so scared that he thought it was going to eat him. He screamed and almost burst into tears.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Xu Jinxuan stepped forward and grabbed the snake's head.

"Come down."

This was the second time the owner had chased it away. The first time, Xiao Lan was serving as a pillow, so no one did anything.

Now that Lin Yu was so scared, it had no choice but to obey. The snake's tail loosened the girl's slender waist, slid down from the bed stool, and coiled aside obediently.

Lin Yu calmed down and saw that it didn't hurt him and was very psychic. He guessed in disbelief: "Could this be... Xiao Lan?"
