Gu Wei teased, "You can't wait any longer?"
Seeing Xie Ling cherishing a puppet so much, he felt a little uncomfortable and frowned slightly, "It's just a puppet. I can carve hundreds of them for you when I go back. I'll carve whatever you like."
Xie Ling looked up at him and chuckled, "That's different. But of course I like your sculpture the best."
As soon as he finished speaking, the back of the puppet was opened, and Xie Ling took out a palm-sized treasure bag from it.
Xie Ling opened it curiously.
The first thing that caught my eye was a letter.
The handwriting of the letter is elegant, profound, and just as gentle as its owner.
"Little sister Aling, I am glad to receive your letter. I am Nangong Yu, your elder brother. I am so ashamed to write this. I am ashamed to be the eldest brother. I mistook fish eyes for pearls, causing my younger sister to wander and wander. Whenever I think of this, I feel extremely guilty and wish I could grind the bad guy to ashes.
I wanted to wait for my grandfather to wake up, so that I could recognize my ancestors and make up for the harm I have done to you. But I have my own family outside. The Nangong family has already let you down, and we cannot force you to stay. I think her husband is a gentleman with outstanding talents, and he is a good man who can be trusted. I only wish my sister good luck in the autumn and good fortune in the winter.
If you are wronged in the future, just come to me. The Nangong family will do everything in their power to seek justice for you. The Nangong family will always be your home and your support."
When Gu Wei saw this, his eyebrows raised slightly.
"Finally, the Nangong family has no other advantages except that they are quite generous in terms of money. The brocade bag comes with a jade token, which can be used to withdraw money at will at Zhaoming Bank, the largest bank in the Seven Kingdoms. There are also two maps showing the locations of the two treasure houses of the Nangong family, which contain countless gold, silver and jewelry, which are priceless. I will give them to my little sister.
That’s all I have to say. Even though I’m really reluctant, I have to stop writing. Remember to come home often. There will always be a place for you in the Nangong family.
Nangong Yu, present it."
Xie Ling continued to open the brocade bag, and indeed found a jade token, just like the one Wei Xiuchu gave her, warm and thick, with dazzling patterns carved on it, and gold lines inside, with complex craftsmanship.
There are also two scrolls made of cowhide, which clearly record the route to the treasure house.
Xie Ling was very shocked.
She didn't expect that the Nangong family could do this for her.
Xie Ling had no idea what was in the treasure house, but she knew this jade token very well.
Just like what Wei Xiuchu gave her, only when the stored gold and silver reaches a certain level can it meet the standards of a jade token.
The standard can be simply summed up in four words: rich enough to rival a country.
Xie Ling took a look and only kept the letter, putting the others back.
"I'm not the real Xiaoyue. I can't keep these things to myself. I'll make it clear to the Nangong family when we meet next time."
Gu Wei nodded, "Okay."
After a pause, he pinched Xie Ling's face and said in a gentle voice: "Anyway, as much gold and silver as Ah Ling wants, I will have as much as she wants. I will never have less than others, and I will never let you envy others. Your husband is very rich now."
Xie Ling was not willing to be outdone, so she also reached out and pinched Gu Wei's face.
"You have money, and I have money too. Who is the boss behind the Seven Nations chain of hot pot and milk tea shops?"
"Of course it's my wife, Gu Wei."
Gu Weiyu smiled and let Xie Ling make his handsome face into a grimace.
Afraid that Xie Ling would be difficult to pinch, he stretched out his face and placed it in front of her. His beautiful peach blossom eyes looked at her without blinking. His long and thick eyelashes were like two small fans, casting a shadow under his eyes.
"Gu Wei, why are you so beautiful?"
Xie Ling stopped her dirty hands and stared at Gu Wei's face.
Gu Wei's facial features were very delicate, with narrow eyes and a straight nose. He was so cool and handsome that he looked like an immortal from another world.
Since Xie Ling came to this world, she has never seen anyone more handsome than Gu Weisheng.
But when others first saw him, they noticed his majestic demeanor, so it was easy to overlook his handsome features.
Gu Wei's eyes held a faint smile, and his thin lips curled up a little, "I was born so beautiful, of course, to win the favor of my wife."
Xie Ling looked at his skin again.
"Your neck and arms are tanned, but why can't your face get tanned? Why is it still so white?"
Gu Wei blinked, "I don't know either. Maybe it's because I like to wear a mask when I fight?"
"You like to wear a mask when you fight?"
Xie Ling opened her almond-shaped eyes slightly, and inexplicably thought of the general in history who was famous for his handsomeness. "Are you wearing a mask because you are afraid that others will see that you are too good-looking?"
Gu Wei laughed, "What are you thinking about? On the battlefield, who cares if someone looks good or not? The most important thing is to keep your life. No matter how good-looking a face is, it will still be cut into two halves by a sword."
Gu Wei's eyes turned dark.
"I wear a mask because I don't like killing people. When I put on the fang mask, I am no longer myself. It can give me some comfort in my heart."
Xie Ling pursed her lips and pondered.
She held Gu Wei in her arms. She wanted to pat his shoulder, but Gu Wei was too tall, so she could only hug his thin waist.
"It's okay. One day, war will disappear from this continent. But before that, we must fight our way out. Therefore, killing is inevitable."
"Um."
Gu Wei's voice was low.
Suddenly he asked abruptly, "A Ling, how old are you?"
Xie Ling: "I haven't even celebrated my 19th birthday yet."
Gu Wei's eyes were burning. "So, you are eighteen years old?"
Xie Ling was completely confused. "Of course it is full. What's wrong?"
