Di Wuji's letter did not arrive in Qiantang until January.
Lu Mingyu happened to be away on business that day, and it was Lin Wanyu who received the letter.
After getting the letter, Lin Wanyu had someone send it to the study to put it away, but out of the corner of her eye she saw it was a letter from Liangcheng.
The North?
Lin Wanyu stopped Shi Shui and pointed at the letter: "Bring it to me and take a look."
"Yes." Shi Shui has followed Lin Wanyu for three years and knows that her master has absolute trust in her and can read even secret letters.
After opening the letter, Lin Wanyu glanced at it, but her carefree expression just now suddenly turned serious, and she frowned: "Is this from Di Wuji?"
"yes."
Lin Wanyu's heart trembled.
The letter made it very clear that Zhao Changsu had arranged for her to be a concubine instead of a concubine. He had been thinking about her and planned to welcome her back in the future, even if she was already a wife.
Lin Wanyu thought she would be heartbroken and sad when she saw Zhao Changsu's sincerity, but now she just wants to sneer.
Belated affection is cheaper than weeds in the gutter.
She realized that she actually didn't need Zhao Changsu to perform any drama about being more affectionate than Jin Jian. It was his choice to destroy her whole family, it was his choice to flee to the north, and it was his choice to send her to Qiantang.
As for some of the tampered details, are they still important?
On the other hand, Lu Mingyu clearly knew that the person he was trying to help with all his efforts and wealth was Zhao Changsu, and he spared no effort to give everything he had.
Comparing the hatchbacks... there is no comparison.
But this letter also reminded her that it had been three years! Her period of filial piety has arrived.
Recently, Lu Mingyu had just taken office as the prefect, so he had very little free time. What little free time he had, he spent all of it with her. He might not have realized that it was time to get married.
He was as happy as he was three years ago, and he is still the same now.
Lin Wanyu put the letter away and asked Shi Shui to take it to the study, while she dressed up and went out.
Qiantang is still so prosperous. There are many hawkers on the street who look familiar to Lin Wanyu. The children who were shouting and drinking on the street three years ago are now helping to clean the shop at home.
People change, and so does she.
After a while, Lin Wanyu's carriage arrived at the door of a bookstore.
"Girl, the master has just sent a message. He will go home for dinner later." Shi Shui stepped forward and helped Lin Wanyu out of the carriage.
"Okay, I know. I can just go in by myself. You wait for me outside." Lin Yunyu habitually took out a fox mask and put it on, and then walked into this "fun-seeking" shop that did not have an "open door" for business. Bookstore".
This is a new bookstore that opened two years ago. It mainly sells story books and plays. The owner has set a rule that you must wear a mask when entering the bookstore. No matter what mask you are wearing, a veil is also acceptable. The function is to prevent customers from entering. Get to know each other’s true face.
Therefore, no one has seen the true face of the owner of this bookstore. They only know that he is a young boy who wears a rabbit mask all year round.
After Lin Wanyu entered, she found a familiar path and walked to the innermost room. From a distance, she saw a rabbit boy writing something at his desk.
"Business is not very good today." Lin Wanyu looked at the bookstore with only two or three customers.
The young man raised his head and said nonchalantly, "Let's take a look at my new notebook."
Lin Wanyu sat next to the young man and stretched out his head to look at him affectionately: "It's not bad. Is this the idea Bai Lu told you?"
"Hmm, I made some changes, Bai Lu is too..." Xue Nan didn't know how to describe it, biting the pen and racking his brains: "Too manly!"
Lin Wanyu shook her head: "I can't help it, Bai Lu is no longer the weakling she used to be. I heard from the young master that she can now carry out tasks independently, which is amazing!"
Three years, only three years, Bai Lu has already left the army! She was a female secret guard brought out by Shishan himself.
Under Duan Yu's careful care, Xue Nan stepped out of the shadows and regained her strength, but she was unwilling to show her face outside, nor was she willing to be kept in captivity at home.
After some thought, Lin Wanyu suggested that Xue Nan open a bookstore to sell books written by herself.
Xue Nan, who has experienced a lot, now understands stories and problems more deeply than before, and writes stories very smoothly. He has written five or six books in just one year.
However, the output was too slow to support the stocking of a bookstore, so Lin Wanyu searched for the book list that Xue Nan had recommended to them before. They were all Xue Nan's favorite story books, so it would be good to run them together.
"Boss Gu, check out." The two girls came to Xue Nan with the books they selected.
Yes, Xue Nan is no longer called Xue Nan now. Lu Mingyu has already asked Lu Mingyu to get a new household certificate and gave her a chance to think of a name. Xue Nan thought about it all night and decided to call her "Gu Xiang".
Firstly, she took her mother's surname, and secondly, she developed the habit of thinking often. She no longer fussed as before and became much more stable.
"Boss Gu is writing a new book? When can we read it?"
These two girls have obviously become little fans of Gu Xiang and are chasing after new books.
Xue Nan, also known as Gu Xiang, smiled: "Come on, come on, my play will be staged at Yunxiang Tower today. Remember to go and see it."
"Of course, we have already decided on the location, and we will have to leave before we finish buying the books."
Gu thought for a while, then took out two tickets from the book folder on the side and handed them to the two girls: "I will give you two tickets. You can use them for any of my plays."
After saying that, he winked at them.
The girls left excitedly, and their screams could be heard even further away.
"It's not about having many fans, it's about being good at it." Lin Wanyu found a chair and sat down, "Boss Gu, can you have some tea?"
"Go, go, the tea is there, the hot water is in the kitchen, get it yourself, don't interrupt my inspiration!"
"..."
Lin Wanyu was speechless, but she got up and went to make tea for herself, bringing Gu Xiang a cup by the way.
Putting the tea in front of Gu Xiang, Lin Wanyu looked at him for a long time: "Your marriage to Duan Yu..."
As soon as he heard about Duan Yu, Gu Xiang immediately rolled his eyes: "I'm only sixteen, so I'm not in a hurry, and who said I'm going to marry Duan Yu? He's a poor guy."
"But his medical skills are very good. It can be said that even most hospitals may not be as good as his medical skills."
"But he doesn't make money. If there are any precious medicinal materials, he is willing to go all out to get them. If it weren't for Lu Mingyu, he wouldn't even have a place to live now... ah no, he doesn't even have any underwear!"
"You can't say that, at least he's very interesting."
"He's interesting..." Gu Xiang finally felt something was wrong and stared at Lin Wanyu: "What happened to you today? Could it be that something good is about to happen with the prefect?"
"Finally let's get to the point!" Lin Wanyu moved a chair close to Gu Xiang, her eyes burning: "Do you think that if I propose marriage, would it be... too much?"
"Huh?" This is the first time Gu Xiangzhen has heard of a woman proposing, but she can dress up as a man and run a bookstore, so it should be no surprise.
"It's not impossible, but don't you feel aggrieved?" Gu Xiang considered Lin Wanyu from a woman's perspective, "It's better to talk it out with Lu Mingyu. If he loves you, he should take it seriously."
"Of course that's what he said. It's just that he managed to get to where he is now and is so busy with work. I'm worried that his body won't be able to handle such exertion."
"Then let's talk about it some time later. You two have a good relationship, so it'll be fine in another year."
Lin Wanyu naturally thought about it, but a letter from Di Wuji gave her an inexplicable impulse to marry Lu Mingyu as soon as possible.
Gu Xiang narrowed his eyes: "Is it possible that you are still afraid that he will be abducted?"
"What nonsense." Lin Wanyu didn't believe this possibility.
But the more Gu Xiang thought about it, the more he thought it was possible: "According to the script, after an ambitious man reaches a high position, he will abandon his wife and children and marry a woman who can help him. Will your Lord Ming... …already…outside…”
"Bah, bah, bah!" Lin Yunyu punched her chest with a small fist: "You are just talking nonsense! He is so busy that he has no time to meet with the young lady in private."
"Hey, hey, don't say I didn't remind you, that Lady Yunxi next to him is your number one love rival!" Gu Xiang didn't know anything when he first opened a bookstore, so Lu Mingyu specially asked Lady Yunxi to do it. Received several tutoring sessions.
"According to my observation, no matter what your Lord Ming thinks, at least Madam Yunxi's heart is tied to him. You should also be concerned about how to deal with her!"
In fact, Lin Wanyu was also aware of this. After all, Madam Yunxi was rescued by Lu Mingyu and trained her to become a talented person, just like her.
But I know that Mrs. Yunxi is involved in a lot of Lu Mingyu's industry. How can it be so easy to solve it at the drop of a hat?
Lin Wanyu believed that she only needed to hold Lu Mingyu's heart firmly, and it didn't matter what other Yingying Yanyan thought.
"Okay, I'm leaving now. The young master will go home for dinner tonight." Lin Yunyu sat down and stood up to leave.
Seeing this made Gu Xiang click his tongue for a long time: "You want to go back to cook again? It's not like there are no cooks in the house."
"You don't understand this. Wait until you get married to Duan Yu and then you will understand it slowly!"
After saying that, Lin Wanyu grabbed the snacks in Gu Xiang's hand and walked away while eating. Gu Xiang was so angry that he bared his teeth and claws behind him: "Lin Wanyu! You have learned so much from Lu Mingyu!"
"Thanks for the compliment!"
Lin Wanyu happily extended her hand to bow without turning her head. Her posture was quite similar to Lu Mingyu's dissolute look a few years ago.
The two of them are already a couple, but is it abnormal that they look more and more like each other?
But Lu Mingyu, who always kept his promises, unexpectedly broke his promise tonight. Unfortunately, Lin Yunyu cooked a lot of his favorite food himself.
"Did you tell me what it was about?" Lin Wanyu didn't think much about it at first, but today Gu Xiang's words were buzzing in her ears like a curse.
But Shi Shui didn't know what happened that prevented Lu Mingyu from returning home, so he could only speculate: "Maybe something happened in the state capital, but the master also sent a message to let the girl eat first without waiting for him."
He eats whatever he likes first, so what's the point in eating it by herself?
Lin Wanyu was unhappy. Looking at the table full of food, she felt a little sour for no reason. Her mind was filled with thoughts about what Lu Mingyu was doing now, who he was with, and when he would be back tonight...
"Fool, fool..." the Langcai parrot named Pippi suddenly began to imitate.
Lin Wanyu's eyes were full of grievances and she had nowhere to complain. After sighing, she picked up the bird food and fed it to Pippi: "Yes, I am a fool."
