Why would Gu Yun need her to repay him? He did not tell the little girl her name. Before she left, the little girl told him that her surname was Wei and she lived in Jiusi Lane. If Gu Yun encountered difficulties in the future, he could go to the Wei family in Jiusi Lane for help.
Gu Yun forgot about it after hearing it. He had just returned to the capital at that time and did not know who the Wei family in Jiusi Lane was. Later, when he learned that the Minister of Justice Wei Tingzhi lived in Jiusi Lane, he completely forgot about it.
Hearing Wei Min say this, it seemed like she had recognized him a long time ago. Gu Yun thought she was thanking him for what happened that year, and smiled, "I just happened to meet you back then. It was just a small favor. It's not worth mentioning. Miss Wei, don't take it to heart."
Wei Min felt more bitter when she heard him speak so easily. During the Lantern Festival banquet that year, she went to the palace gate to pick up her father. She saw Gu Yun coming out of the palace and recognized him. After asking her father, she learned that he was Gu Yun, the young marquis of Annan Marquisate.
Later, her father went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors. She lived in the countryside with her mother for half a year. After returning to Beijing, there were many rumors about the young Marquis Gu in the capital. People said how arrogant and dissolute he was, uneducated, fighting cocks and running errands all day long, causing trouble on the streets, and beating up any young man from aristocratic family he didn't like. However, he was favored by the emperor and inherited the title of the young marquis of Annan Marquisate at a young age, which gave people in Beijing a headache and disgust.
Wei Min didn't believe it. The person who always appeared in her mind was Gu Yun, who stood in front of her as soon as she opened her eyes and seemed to be glowing.
The young man is dressed in fine clothes and rides a fast horse, showing his chivalrous spirit.
Later, at a banquet at the Liu family, Wei Min met Gu Yun. She was young and shy at that time, and wanted to go up and talk to him but didn't dare. She heard from Liu Yaoyu that Gu Yun was good friends with the eldest son of the Liu family. From then on, she would often go to play with Liu Yaoyu, but most girls stayed in the back house, and Gu Yun didn't go to the Liu Mansion every day, so she didn't often see him there.
She intentionally or unintentionally asked Liu Yaoyu about Gu Yun's preferences. Knowing that he was good at martial arts, she asked her father to hire a martial arts master to teach her martial arts and archery. Her riding skills were better than those of some young masters from aristocratic families.
The first time she spoke to Gu Yun was because the eldest son of the Liu family was going on a business trip to Jiangnan. Liu Yaoyu was reluctant to let him go and cried until her eyes were red. Gu Yun was also at the Liu residence that day. After seeing off the eldest son, Gu Yun suddenly turned around and walked in front of her and said to her, "Miss Wei, Ziqi said that his second sister needs your help to comfort her."
The moment Wei Min looked up and saw him standing in front of her, she was so nervous that her mind went blank. It took her a while to react and she nodded in panic.
Gu Yun smiled and left.
After he left, Wei Min felt extremely regretful and couldn't help blaming herself for being so dull at the time and not even saying a word to Gu Yun.
That night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, constantly wondering if Gu Yun still remembered her. They were the only family with the surname Wei in Jiusi Lane, so he should know about it.
Wei Min thought that Gu Yun might have recognized her a long time ago, but he didn't mention it on purpose because it was not appropriate to publicize the fact that a girl was knocked unconscious and taken away.
After that, every time she saw Gu Yun, she would deliberately find a way to approach and talk to him, even if it was just a bow and a greeting.
Gu Yun sometimes nodded, and sometimes called her Miss Wei, but just this response could make Wei Min's mood fluctuate for a long time.
When she reached her prime, Wei Min suddenly came to her senses and gradually realized that she was in love with Gu Yun.
She paid more and more attention to Gu Yun, carefully and shyly hiding her feelings, but she also began to look forward to the day when she could hold his hand, stand together with him in colorful crowns and red clothes, greet relatives and friends, and kneel before heaven and earth.
Until one time, she deliberately dropped the sachet in front of Gu Yun. The maid clearly saw that the sachet was picked up by Gu Yun, but Wei Min waited for a long time for him to return it. In the end, it was Yao Yu who returned the sachet to her and said to her with a smile, "Young Marquis Gu found your sachet, but didn't know your maiden name, so he asked the servant to hand it to me."
The word "Minmin" was embroidered on the sachet. The moment Wei Min took the sachet, she felt it was ridiculous and her nose felt sore. She almost couldn't hold back her tears in front of Yao Yu.
How could he not know her name?
How could he not know her name?
That day, when she left Liu's house, Wei Min sat in the carriage and cried silently. It was as if she had been caught in a heavy rain, or as if she had drunk a bowl of bitter and astringent medicine.
It turns out that her thoughts and shyness, which she tried to hide but made more obvious, were always her own business.
