Chapter 198: A man and a demon, how can they be a perfect match? ...
Wen Yu smiled broadly, but didn't answer. She pointed at the colorful lanterns hanging on the float and asked, "How much is this lantern?"
"Oh! You're the young lady who was with Master Mu yesterday." Wu Da suddenly realized, then scratched the back of his head a little bewilderedly. "Ms. Wen...Ms. Wen?"
Then he saw Song Linsheng following behind Wen Yu, his eyes looking bright and clear. "You are... Lord Song!"
Yesterday, Lord Song had given him a silver ingot and hadn't even asked for change. He hadn't known about it until a neighbor at a nearby stall told him that this person was Lord Song, the current prefect of Jiangyang. Only then did he realize.
I was originally thinking that I hadn't given the change to Lord Song, and I felt a little embarrassed.
But I didn't expect to meet you here in the blink of an eye.
Wen Yu tilted her head and looked at Song Linsheng standing shoulder to shoulder with her, then turned to Wu Da and nodded, "Exactly."
"Oh! Madam Wen, Lord Song." Wu Da simply put down the handle of the float, rubbed his hands in his sleeves, and then pursed his lips. "What's the matter with you two being here?"
Wen Yu smiled brightly, finally getting to the point.
"It's nothing special." Wen Yu looked Wu Da straight in the face. "I just wanted to ask you something—"
Yesterday, when I saw Lord Mu talking to Wu Da, it seemed that they were very familiar with each other. Moreover, if Wu Da was not familiar with him, he would not have given Lord Mu a lantern.
Thinking of this, Wen Yu asked boldly, "Which house in Linyuankou does Lord Mu live in?"
But before Wen Yu finished speaking, Wu Da frowned strangely and looked at Wen Yu in confusion.
"Which family?" Wu Da turned and looked behind him, then turned to Wen Yu and continued, "Linyuankou is now owned by Master Mu."
"Ah?" Wen Yu couldn't control herself and suddenly cried out, "What did you say?"
Without waiting for Wu Da's answer, Wen Yu glanced around the so-called Linyuankou again. There were so many pavilions and towers, and the mansions were so vast that there was no need to describe them in detail.
But now, it is said that the entire Linyuankou is Lord Mu’s property?
Wen Yu blinked, and couldn't help but glance sideways at Song Linsheng, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with her. She asked quietly and quickly, "Song Linsheng, whose business is better, yours or Lord Mu's?"
Song Linsheng lowered his eyes and smiled faintly, seeming to be troubled by Wen Yu's words. "The properties under my name, well... haven't been checked yet."
After saying this, Song Linsheng's lips curled up uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but add, "If Xiaoyu is interested, I can check it out and ask Xiaoyu to take a look."
Wen Yu puffed up her cheeks, and nodded as if possessed by a movement of her eyes.
Wu Dalue looked at Wen Yu and Song Linsheng with a bit of confusion, then hesitantly asked, "Madam, are you Master Xun Mu?"
After hearing this question, Wen Yu suddenly came to his senses.
"Yeah!" She nodded briefly, then asked, "Do you know where Master Mu is?"
Although the entire Linyuankou is Lord Mu's property, he doesn't live in every house, right?
Wen Yu couldn't help but think, but it's also... possible?
"I know." Wu Da seemed relieved and then laughed, "If my lady is looking for Master Mu, just go ahead."
"Just now when I passed by, I saw Lord Mu waiting in front of the door, as if he was waiting for someone!"
Wu laughed heartily, and realized belatedly that the person Lord Mu was waiting for might be Madam Wen in front of him.
Lord Mu was a solitary man, and he had never been seen receiving guests at home. It was a complete first for Madam Wen to visit him.
Wu Da was very happy. Lord Mu took good care of them on a daily basis, so they naturally hoped that Lord Mu could interact with more people and make more friends.
It's better than being alone.
"Okay! Thank you!" Wen Yu got the answer he wanted and hurriedly thanked Mr. Wu.
But then again…
Wen Yu tilted her head slightly, and her brows furrowed.
"Then...if all of Linyuankou belongs to Lord Mu, how come you came from..." Wen Yu trailed off, her words seeming a bit offensive. "Do you live with Lord Mu?"
Fortunately, Wu Da's expression remained unchanged, and he did not think there was anything wrong. After Wen Yu finished speaking, he still smiled and replied:
"My lady, it's not surprising that you don't know." Wu Da's eyes wrinkled with a smile, but he didn't look tired at all. "Since Lord Mu established Linyuankou, anyone who has nowhere to stay in the city can stay here for half a year and leave on their own after finding a way to make a living."
"Me!" Wu Dayi raised his chin and pointed at the float in front of him. "Business is good now. After a while, I can open my own shop!"
His words were filled with joy, and his eyes were extremely bright, revealing his infinite expectations for the future.
Wen Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but be infected by Wu Da's vitality.
Gods and immortals are often detached from the mundane world and never fall into the mundane world. No matter what circumstances they are in, they never compete with the world and never care about fame or fortune.
She was used to it and always took it as the principle of her cultivation.
And what she saw today seemed to give her new insights and understandings.
Mortals have desires, but precisely because they have desires, they also have a direction to move forward, so they are always fresh and passionate.
Wen Yu thought about it in his heart and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
Song Linsheng's gaze gently brushed across Wen Yu's cheek. He smiled without saying a word and did not interrupt Wen Yu's meditation.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Wu." Song Linsheng nodded gently, "I also hope that Mr. Wu can achieve his wish soon."
As he spoke, Song Linsheng took out a silver ingot from his purse, picked out something from the carriage stand, and said politely to Wu Da, "I'll buy this. Please keep the silver."
Wu Da smiled widely, but when he took the silver ingot handed over by Song Linsheng, he waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, sir, you gave me too much. Yesterday..."
"It's okay." Song Linsheng smiled and shook his head, his eyes full of kindness. "Just consider it a thank you."
He stopped the man and asked so many questions. Just based on the time wasted, who knows how much business the man could have done. It was only right that he thanked him.
Wu Da refused repeatedly, but could not stand Song Linsheng's repeated persuasion, so he had no choice but to accept.
Before leaving, Song Linsheng smiled and watched Wu Dayuan leave.
Even as the float passed the two of them, Wen Yu was still pondering her profound and mysterious way of enlightenment.
Hiss...it's absolutely wonderful!
When she returned to the Temple of Spring, she would compile her insights from this time in the human world into a book and have her master order all the immortals in the Eastern Heaven to circulate it.
Alas... by then she will surely be famous and her reputation will be passed down through the ages.
By then, as for Chi Huang and the like... she wouldn't care about them at all!
"Xiaoyu? Xiaoyu?" Seeing Wen Yu still smiling as if she was fascinated, Song Linsheng could only call her softly.
Wen Yu was immersed in the beautiful fantasy of ascending to heaven one day and writing a book to become a legend. It seemed that everything around her suddenly disappeared, and she was the only one left in the world.
"Xiaoyu?" Song Linsheng called out slowly, without any sign of impatience or impatience.
After Wen Yu had been lost in thought for a long time and felt satisfied, she finally heard Song Linsheng's voice.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Wen Yu was a little confused by his sudden call.
Her deer-like eyes were covered with moisture, and she was staring at Song Linsheng without blinking. The doubt in her eyes was self-evident.
"nothing."
Song Linsheng smiled softly, then raised his sleeves to the level of his eyebrows.
As soon as he opened his palm, the object hanging on his fingertips fell down and landed right in front of Wen Yu.
"Look—"
As Song Linsheng finished speaking, an exquisite cloisonné enamel multi-treasure sachet revealed its true appearance.
The hollow sachet is decorated with intricate patterns, with lotus flowers formed by extremely delicate filigree. What's even more amazing is that the hollow middle part seems to be able to be opened from the side.
"This is..." Wen Yu stared at the small and exquisite... ball in front of her with burning eyes, without blinking.
"I just bought it from Mr. Wu." Through the swaying exquisite sachet, Song Linsheng could clearly see Wen Yu's surprise. "I think it's exquisite and unique. I think Xiaoyu should like it."
Wen Yu, who was originally staring at the sachet, couldn't help but look up and met Song Linsheng's eyes.
"Hmm..." She pursed her lips to prevent herself from smiling too brightly, "Hmm!"
Like, like, of course she likes it.
With Wen Yu's approval, a smile appeared on Song Linsheng's lips. In an instant, his eyes were filled with stars and tenderness.
"You can put some insect repellent and dehumidifying pills in here, which will be useful in summer." Song Linsheng frowned thoughtfully.
Wen Yu also frowned like him, and then she looked around and suddenly an idea came to her.
"This..." Wen Yu leaned forward slightly and took out the small dragon sachet that Song Linsheng gave her yesterday from her waist.
Hmm... after getting used to it, this little dragon seems to be quite cute.
Wen Yu pursed her lips and couldn't help laughing at Xiao Long's silly look.
There are colorful silk threads and a wooden wishing plaque attached to the little dragon, and now with the addition of a multi-treasure sachet pendant, it is perfect.
Song Linsheng followed Wen Yu's gaze, but after a moment of surprise, he smiled in tacit understanding.
Xiaoyu and he... actually thought the same thing.
"Okay." Song Linsheng nodded in agreement, then withdrew his hand and spread the Duobao sachet in his palm.
After receiving his answer, Wen Yu held the small dragon sachet higher, until it was level with Song Linsheng's palm.
Song Linsheng smiled slightly, but his forbearing and restrained expression could not hide the blush on his cheeks.
He slowly reached out and tied the cloisonné sachet of multi-treasures to Wen Yu's small dragon sachet.
The two stood facing each other, speechless for a while.
The faint sunlight sprinkled on their bodies, enveloping Wen Yu and Song Linsheng in a golden mist, hazy and ambiguous, hot yet moist.
A little further away, Xiyan and Yuchang stood side by side, looking at their young master and Madam Wen, wondering what they were talking about.
But even though he couldn't hear or see clearly, it didn't affect his knowledge that the atmosphere between the young master and Madam Wen was very good at the moment.
Xiyan crossed his arms over his chest, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.
Thinking of Miss Yingying beside him, Xiyan leaned to the right mysteriously and asked in a low voice, "Miss Yingying, do you think our young master and Miss Wen are a good match?"
After he said this, Yu Chang didn't move at all, but glanced to the left at Xiyan.
A perfect match?
Yu Chang's lips curled up, but the cold arc was hard to tell whether it was joy or sadness, ridicule or sarcasm.
He seemed to have heard some huge joke—
A man and a demon, how can they be a perfect match?
