Liu Yaoyu heard that the two of them seemed to be playing charades, and she was very curious: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. What happened between Wei Min and Young Marquis Gu? Why did she run away from home after Young Marquis Gu?"
Chen Wan smiled subtly: "I think you have no love at all. If anyone falls in love with you in the future, they will probably suffer."
"Aren't you talking about Wei Min? Why are you talking about me again?" Liu Yaoyu pouted, "What does it have to do with me!"
She pulled up Yu Jiao's sleeve and pestered her to ask what was going on between Wei Min and Gu Yun.
Yu Jiao was at a loss as to what to do. Considering that the Wei family had gone to the Annan Marquis's residence to ask for an explanation, it must have spread everywhere. It would be okay to tell Liu Yaoyu, so she whispered to her, "Wei Min is in love with the young Marquis Gu."
"What?" Liu Yaoyu was full of surprise, she covered her mouth and looked at Chen Wan for confirmation. Chen Wan nodded at her. Liu Yaoyu opened her eyes wide and lowered her voice, "When did it happen? I thought she had always admired the rough general who practiced martial arts in the frontier, but it turned out to be Gu Yun. I really didn't see it at all."
Cui Qiong's words at that time really came true.
Now that I think about it, when Cui Qiong was in this pavilion guessing that Wei Min might have a crush on Gu Yun, there was indeed some evidence for Wei Min's shy and anxious expression.
"When Wei Min was a child, she was rescued by Young Marquis Gu." Yu Jiao said softly, "She has admired Young Marquis Gu for a long time."
Liu Yaoyu's eyes sparkled as she said, "There is actually such a reason. A hero saves a beautiful girl. No wonder Wei Min appreciates martial artists more than talented scholars."
"Don't go and say anything nonsense to Wei Min in the future. We don't know if she and Young Marquis Gu can succeed." Shen Wan kindly warned her, fearing that she was naive and outspoken.
Liu Yaoyu nodded repeatedly and said obediently: "You all pretend not to know, I'm not that stupid."
The three of them talked in the pavilion for a while, and a servant came to call them to Baoshou Hall for dinner. When Yu Jiao stood up, she saw Tao Ge'er hiding behind the gardenia tree. When he saw her looking at her, Tao Ge'er quickly turned his back.
Yu Jiao walked towards him, "Brother Tao, why are you here? It's time to go eat."
Tao Ge'er still had his back to Yu Jiao, as if he was angry and didn't want to look at her. Next to Tao Ge'er was Wei Ma, Tao Ge'er's mother. She sighed and said with some heartache: "Miss San, Tao Ge'er misses you. He often hides in Yingyue Pavilion by himself these days."
Yu Jiao approached, tiptoed and touched Tao Ge'er's head. Tao Ge'er then looked at her, his eyes slightly red: "Why don't you come to play with me?"
Tao Ge'er and Liu Yaoyu are not close, and they often quarrel. In the past, the person he relied on the most was Liu Ziqi, but Liu Ziqi was busy outside and was often not at home.
Later, Yu Jiao came to the mansion. She had a good temper and often played with Tao Ge'er. Although Tao Ge'er's mind was like that of a child, the more innocent his mind was, the more he could feel the kindness and malice of others towards him.
So, Brother Tao cares a lot about Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao always looked at Tao Ge'er as if she was looking at her younger brother Fei Ge'er. She explained in a gentle voice: "I'm married and moved out. I don't live at home anymore. If you want to play with me in the future, let Yaoyu take you to the Osmanthus Alley at Wanfu Bridge."
Tao Geer tugged at her sleeve, looking very puzzled, and asked seriously with his head tilted: "Can you move back home?"
"After you get married, you have to live with your husband, just like my elder sister married into the Cui Mansion before. You can't move back home." Yu Jiao explained to him patiently.
After hearing this, Tao Geer became visibly more disappointed. He grabbed Yu Jiao's sleeve tightly and said seriously, "If you marry me, can you live at home forever? I don't want you to move out. Can you marry me..."
Before she finished her words, Nanny Wei saw a tall figure approaching and interrupted Tao'er: "Tao'er, shut up." Then she pointed to the direction where Yu Qizhe was walking and explained: "Third uncle, Tao'er didn't mean what he said. He just couldn't bear to leave the Third Miss. Please don't blame me."
Yu Jiao looked up at Yu Qizhe behind her: "Why are you here?" Shouldn't they be having dinner in the front hall?
Yu Qizhe's eyes fell on the half of her sleeve that was still being pulled by Tao Ge'er, and a dark light flashed in his black pupils. He walked to Yu Jiao's side, naturally holding her other hand, and looked at Tao Ge'er, who was of similar stature to him, and asked, "What is this?"
"This is Nanny Wei who serves my mother. Tao Ge'er is her child, and also... my mother's adopted son." Yu Jiao said the second half of the sentence hesitantly. Although Tao Ge'er's identity has never been made public in the mansion, Madam Liu does treat Tao Ge'er as her own son.
Tao Ge'er saw Yu Qizhe holding Yu Jiao's hand. To him, who only had the mind of a child, such an action was tantamount to snatching his third sister away from him. He let go of Yu Jiao's sleeve and instead held Yu Jiao's hand.
Glancing at his actions, Yu Qizhe's eyes instantly became sharp, and there was a hint of intimidation in his gaze as he stared at Tao Ge'er.
Tao Geer sensed this hostility and stubbornly grabbed Yu Jiao's hand. He glared back at Yu Qizhe angrily, "I remember you, but you married the third sister. The third sister didn't want to marry you anymore. She wanted to move back home and marry me."
