Chapter 78 Clearing the Traces 1 Love at First Sight
When Lin Qingran was searching the body, she erased all traces of the men in black coming and passing by, and then placed the information of the men in black in another direction.
"Qingxue, I found a token and two letters, one thousand taels of banknotes, and about seventy or eighty taels of silver," Lin Qingran hurriedly walked up and said when he saw Lin Qingyue coming back.
"Okay, Third Brother, give me everything! Remember, we haven't done anything here. You go first. I have to clean up the traces we left behind, so that no one can find us."
Lin Qingxue happily took the things handed to her by Lin Qingran. That was great, she had some income again, although she was not short of money now.
But who would complain about having too much money?
Lin Qingran didn't understand these, but he didn't doubt Lin Qingxue's words. He believed her, so he quickly rode his horse forward and galloped after the large group.
After Lin Qingran left, Lin Qingxue cleaned up the scene, got on the horse, ran around twice, and then caught up with Lin Qingran.
The brother and sister met up with the main group one after the other, and then continued on their way as if nothing had happened. The man who was rescued by the Lin family woke up an hour after the journey. Feeling the bumps, he soon realized that he was being rescued.
"Is it you?" As soon as the man opened his eyes, he saw Lin Qingxue riding on a horse. He was deeply impressed by her because Lin Qingxue was the first woman he had ever met who was not inferior to men. Her image of bravely killing bandits kept echoing in his mind.
"How are you? I have asked my younger brother to give you medicine, but our medicine is very ordinary." Lin Qingxue saw that the person woke up, and immediately changed with Lin Qingmin. She sat on the donkey cart and asked him to come over.
"I'm fine. Do you have any food and water?" The man said with a bitter look on his face. He hadn't had water or eaten for a long time. Although he could hold it in, he needed food to replenish his lost strength.
Lin Qingxue didn't say anything. She nodded and asked Lin Qingyue to throw the food and water bag to her. She caught them and handed them to the man.
After swallowing two scones and drinking a few sips of water, the man felt much more energetic. He looked at Lin Qingxue and said solemnly, "I am the eldest son of the Duke of Imperial City. I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please let me go with you to the Imperial City? I will reward you handsomely when I return home."
"You can go to the imperial city with us. There is no need for a huge reward. You saved our entire village. We helped you once, and we will be even from now on," Lin Qingxue shook her head and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
After knowing the identity of the man in front of her, Lin Qingxue had a thought in her mind that it was as she expected. She could tell at a glance that the man had an extraordinary demeanor and was definitely not something that an ordinary family could raise.
Although the man was trying his best to conceal his aura, Lin Qingxue would definitely not mistake the smell of someone who had killed and seen blood on him.
"That's different. My name is Gu Jinxuan. Madam, you can call me Huaiyu. If you don't like it, what should you call me?" The man, Gu Jinxuan, had a much softer expression. The woman in front of him really caught his eye. He felt that she was different from those women in the imperial city.
"My name is Lin Qingxue. I am the fifth in the family. You can call me Lin Wu," Lin Qingxue said calmly.
Here, Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan were chatting very "happily". The Lin family members were frightened watching from the side, as they did not forget how noble his identity was.
"Ms. Lin Wu," Gu Jinxuan's eyes flashed with tenderness when he heard Lin Qingxue's self-introduction. Yes, he fell in love with Lin Qingxue at first sight. This was the first time he was eager to get to know a girl, even his ex-wife, he had never done this before.
Gu Jinxuan had a wife, but she has passed away. He and his late wife were childhood sweethearts, but they had no feelings for each other. Forced by a childhood engagement, they were reluctantly together and gave birth to a son and a daughter.
After that, Gu Jinxuan continued to guard the city at the border until his wife passed away two years ago. He then returned to the imperial city and learned the truth about why his wife married him.
It turned out that the wife's family was framed and the whole family was imprisoned, so the two families arranged such a child marriage just to save his wife.
However, the woman had another lover and had been unhappy since marrying him, and her family members had already passed away.
Although she gave birth to two children later, she was always thinking about her childhood sweetheart and kept in contact with him. She didn't pay much attention to her two children. Fortunately, the children were taken care of by the wife of the Duke of Huguo and the servants in the mansion, so she didn't have to worry about them.
Once, Gu Jinxuan’s deceased wife received a letter from somewhere and cried bitterly. Her health became worse and worse. She passed away without even having an explanation.
In fact, from Gu Jinxuan's point of view, apart from feeling a little sorry for his wife and children, he did very well in other aspects.
When Gu Jinxuan was twelve years old, he followed his father to the border town, which is Xicheng. Xicheng is close to the front and there are sandstorms and tornadoes all year round.
Although he was young, he had learned most of the skills of the Duke of Protector of the Country. The father and son were very famous in West City, and they frightened away those villains who wanted to break into West City and cause trouble.
At the age of sixteen, Gu Jinxuan returned to the imperial city to marry his wife and was given a three-month vacation. The newly married couple originally planned to cultivate their relationship, but his wife was always cold to him, so he gave up the idea.
As soon as the holiday was over, Gu Jinxuan returned to Xicheng, and since then he has led the Gu family army alone in Xicheng.
In the second year of his marriage, Gu Jinxuan had a son. When his son was three years old, he was ordered to return to the imperial city to report on his work.
After staying at home for several months, feeling his wife's indifference and neglect, Gu Jinxuan completely lost his feelings for her. Even when his wife later passed away, he did not feel sad at all, but only felt relieved.
Although he had no feelings for his wife, Gu Jinxuan would collect many gifts every year and send them back home for his two children and relatives.
Therefore, he has a very good relationship with the two children.
Lin Qingxue naturally saw Gu Jinxuan's fiery eyes. She was not stupid. Although she had never been in love, she had seen others do so.
However, she didn't want to talk about it at the moment, nor was she against it. What was important right now were her two daughters and the Lin family. Once she settled down and met the right person, she would look for another one.
On the rest of the journey, Lin Qingxue deliberately avoided Gu Jinxuan. Since he could get this far, he was certainly not stupid.
The journey was peaceful. With Gu Jinxuan leading the way to clean up the robbers, Lin Qingxue easily reached the imperial city after ten days.
