Yu Jinshu coughed lightly a few times.
Qi Luoting, driven by a man's natural desire to protect others, said to Yu Jinshu, "You need to change your wet clothes quickly, or you'll catch a cold. Where do you live? I'll take you home."
Yu Jinshu said, "It's quite far." She deliberately looked around, pouting slightly, with a helpless expression on her face.
She stood up from the ground, took off her robe and handed it to Qi Luoting, "Sir, you are wet too, don't worry about me, go back first."
Qi Luoting took the robe and put it on Yu Jinshu again: "Put it on! If you don't mind, come back with me and change your clothes here before leaving."
These days, a case of typhoid fever is enough to take a person's life. In his eyes, life is the most important thing.
Yu Jinshu lowered his eyes and said helplessly, "That's the only way. I'm just afraid of troubling you, young master."
"It won't be a problem." Qi Luoting pointed at his horse. "My horse is over there."
Yu Jinshu was secretly delighted: We're even riding together! The two of them were wet, sitting together, this was too intimate.
Qi Luoting is now 27 years old. Although he has a wife and concubines at home, he has never had physical contact with a woman. When Yu Jinshu walked to the side of his big black horse, he had to have physical contact with her again. He held her arms and waist with both hands and let her get on the horse.
The touch was so good that Qi Luoting felt a tingling sensation on his palm.
Then he also got on the horse and sat behind Yu Jinshu, holding the reins.
Sitting together like this was equivalent to him holding Yu Jinshu in his arms.
I originally wanted to lead the horse back home, but that would be too slow and the girl would be cold.
As Qi Luoting walked home, the long-lost throbbing in his heart reappeared.
The first chapter is about meeting Nangong Yueli for the first time.
And this time, it seemed stronger and more real than that time.
Yu Jinshu nestled in Qi Luoting's arms, but was wondering what Qi Luoting would think if he knew that Nangong Yueli died at the hands of her father?
The reason why she had some scars on her face and appeared in front of Qi Luoting in a very weak way was to arouse Qi Luoting's sympathy first.
If Qi Luoting felt pity for her and then found a way to prove Nangong Yueli's cruelty, Qi Luoting might not hate her anymore.
They didn't talk along the way, but each of them had his own thoughts.
They soon arrived at the Taining Marquis' Mansion, and Qi Luoting helped Yu Jinshu off the horse again.
Yu Jinshu looked at the four large gold characters "Taining Marquis Mansion" on the red lacquer plaque on the gate and pretended to be surprised: "Sir, are you from Taining Marquis Mansion?"
Qi Luoting was afraid of scaring her, so he just said, "Miss, please go into the mansion first. There are maids in the mansion who can arrange for you to change your clothes. You don't have to be afraid."
Yu Jinshu nodded slightly.
Qi Luoting brought Yu Jinshu into the Marquis' Mansion and ordered the gatekeeper, "Go and call two maids to take this girl to change her clothes."
The servant went there quickly, and soon two maids came.
Yu Jinshu followed the maid to the backyard. She looked back at Qi Luoting every few steps, and a hint of shyness appeared on her beautiful face.
A smile curved up Qi Luoting's cold face and he nodded to signal her not to be afraid.
The servant next to him looked at Qi Luoting with surprise. It turned out that the Marquis could laugh!
For several years, the Marquis has been cold and has never smiled at anyone.
Yu Jinshu followed the maid to the guest room in the backyard to change clothes. Along the way, she saw many beautiful women in the backyard pointing at her, like concubines in this mansion.
Just as the book said, Qi Luoting was surrounded by beautiful women.
It was Yu Jinshu's first time coming back to the Marquis' Mansion, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble here, so he changed his clothes and walked out.
But she didn't expect that Qi Luoting was waiting for her outside the guest room.
Originally, the concubines in the mansion wanted to come to the guest room to ask for clarification, but Qi Luoting was worried about this, so he drove all the concubines away and stood guard at the door himself.
Qi Luoting didn't understand why he had such a protective urge. He thought that since he had rescued the girl by jumping into the water, he had to help her to the end! He would escort the girl home later.
Yu Jinshu changed into a gauze dress embroidered with lilies, which made her look less plain and more charming.
"Sir, no, Marquis, forgive my ignorance, I didn't know you were Marquis."
Qi Luoting said calmly: "No problem! Where do you live, girl? I'll take you back."
Yu Jinshu said, "My daughter lives on Kangfu Street." She was not lying. The General's Mansion was located on Kangfu Street.
Just after she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of her Xiaobai, "Hey, Xiaobai, where did Xiaobai go?"
She looked around.
Just now she went into the house to change clothes, and Xiaobai stayed outside the door.
Qi Luoting quickly ordered the maids and servants, "Hurry up and help find it. It's a pure white cat."
Pure white cats are rare and eye-catching, so they should be easy to find.
As an outsider, it was not convenient for Yu Jinshu to look for her everywhere, so he waited for the servants in the mansion to look for her.
She stood opposite Qi Luoting, without saying a word, just lowering her head slightly and glancing at Qi Luoting from time to time.
Every time she looked at Qi Luoting, she would meet his deep eyes, which were very charming, and it seemed that she would be captivated by him if she looked at him one more time.
Since Xiaobai couldn't be found for a while, Qi Luoting saw Yu Jinshu standing there for a long time, so he invited Yu Jinshu into the guest hall for tea.
It was almost evening by then, and after searching for a while, Xiaobai still couldn't find it.
"Cuckoo, cuckoo"
Yu Jinshu's stomach growled a few times.
Qi Luoting then realized that he had neglected the girl and quickly ordered the maid beside him: "Go prepare the food."
Yu Jinshu said politely, "No need, Lord. It's getting late. If I go home too late, my parents might worry."
Qi Luoting looked at the weather outside, and then saw that the girl had drowned. Her face was a little pale, and he advised: "Why don't you just eat something at home first, and then I will take you back."
Yu Jinshu touched his hungry stomach, thought about it, and nodded.
She was not pretending to be hungry. It had been several hours since she left the house and she was already hungry.
Xiaobai’s disappearance is not fake. He is so naughty and no one knows where he ran off to.
It was obvious that Qi Luoting was not good at speaking. The two of them sat there for a long time. The atmosphere in the hall was awkward and a little ambiguous.
Yu Jinshu could feel that Qi Luoting was not averse to her, so there might be a chance.
Soon the maid brought a sumptuous meal.
The servant brought a round table, and the maids laid out the dishes, prepared two small wine glasses, and added wine.
The maid said, "My Lord, the kitchen heard that you and the girl fell into the water, so they prepared this medicinal wine to dispel cold and dampness. They said that drinking this medicinal wine will prevent you from getting cold."
Qi Luoting picked up the wine glass and gestured to Yu Jinshu: "Miss, drink up now! If you drink, you won't get typhoid fever."
Yu Jinshu nodded slightly, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, but was choked by the taste of the strong liquor and coughed repeatedly.
Qi Luoting quickly put down his wine glass and stood up, wanting to help Yu Jinshu, but he put his hand down again as soon as he raised it, worried about offending her.
Yu Jinshu recovered and said to Qi Luoting with a smile, "Don't worry, Lord Marquis. I'm fine."
After she said that, she took a sip of the wine in the glass and didn't choke.
