The spring rain is like tiny dust particles, wetting the golden willow silk on the street and bullying the early blooming flowers. The car curtains were blown sideways by the wind, making people feel slightly chilly.
"How long will it take until we arrive at the house?" Gu Ruosu asked as she watched the cute drizzle gradually turning into beads. She remembered that the accompanying maid and slave did not bring an umbrella.
"When I go back to my wife, the road is slippery on a rainy day. We are still several blocks away from our house. It may take a while."
"I think the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Find a tea shop or something to take shelter from the rain. Wait until the rain subsides before leaving."
"Yes, Madam, please go further ahead. I remembered that there is a small restaurant opened by my brother. If you don't mind, Madam, why not go and rest in front."
"Okay, go ahead."
The carriage slowly advanced a few steps in the direction of the tavern, but the driver suddenly reined in the horse, and the four grandfathers and grandsons in the carriage all jolted forward.
"What's going on! Why did this carriage stop so well!" Xie Yi touched his red head and said angrily.
"Madam, ladies, there is a man in white robe coming outside, saying he wants to propose marriage."
"What! Asking for a hand in marriage! Where does this bastard come from? Beat him!"
"What do those guards do for a living?" When Xie Yi heard that there were gangsters, his temper immediately rose.
"That man had the Prime Minister's private seal on him, and he said it was promised by the Prime Minister." Biyun outside said hesitantly.
"What! My dad! Who is that person? How can my dad give him such a big favor?" Gu Yi looked in disbelief and almost jumped out of the car.
Gu Ruosu looked at the three little girls who were frightened and panicked, and clapped her hands to signal them not to panic, she would take care of everything.
In fact, Gu Ruosu was under a lot of pressure. The person who could ask his prime minister's son to give a private seal and dare to come to the street to propose marriage must be extremely powerful. He might not be a prince or prince, but even if he was a prince or prince, it would be really hard for him to propose marriage on the street. If you agree to these three little girls, it won't work. If you agree, it will appear that the girls are not reserved and wanton, and the reputation of the girls will probably be ruined. If you don't agree, this person probably won't let it go.
But what can be done? Since she is the ancestor of the Xie family, it is her duty to protect them. Besides, she is such a senior person, so she must have the face to send a younger person.
If it doesn't work, they have a car and a horse, so they can just run away!
With this thought in mind, Gu Ruosu left the carriage with heavy steps.
It was misty and rainy, and Gu Ruosu looked at the man in white robe riding a tall horse through a thin layer of rain and mist.
He has a pine-like figure and an extraordinary temperament, but he is wearing a white robe and a mask, making him a weirdo. This was Gu Ruosu's first impression of the man in white robe.
The man in white robe seemed to feel Gu Ruosu's appraising gaze, and stared at Gu Ruosu with his eyes hidden behind the mask.
"Don't stare at me." Gu Ruosu felt frightened when the man looked at her and couldn't help but said.
When the man in white robe heard this, he actually withdrew his gaze. Then, with everyone watching, he got off his horse, walked up to Gu Ruosu, bowed and saluted, but did not speak.
"Which granddaughter of mine do you want to marry?" Gu Ruosu followed the principle of a quick decision and asked directly. His voice was not loud enough that everyone around him could hear it, especially the little girls hiding in the carriage. She blushed in embarrassment at her grandmother's directness.
Although she didn't want to marry such a libertine, the little girl always wanted to be more popular, so she pricked up her ears and waited to hear the answer from the man in white robe.
"I am a very beautiful person. I heard that all the girls in the Xie family are as beautiful as heavenly beings, but when I saw it today, I felt that you, Mrs. So, I changed my mind. I want to marry you, Mrs. Xie." After saying that, he actually took Gu Ruosu's hand and gave her a pious kiss in full view of everyone.
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned to stone, and their mouths were wide enough to fit a tea egg! Gu Ruosu suddenly felt that there were several big rocks pressing on her chest, which made her unable to breathe. At the same time, her head was buzzing.
"I'm older than you!!!" Gu Ruosu was the first to react.
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind. Love should not be limited by age."
"You, you, you! I have a child!"
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind being a stepfather."
"I'm married! My husband is still alive!"
"It doesn't matter, I know. I'm younger than your husband. I'll take over for you after he dies."
"You, you, you! Why are you such a stinky person... Bah... don't be... shameless..."
"What is face? I only know that pursuing love should not be defeated by the world."
"Go away! Believe it or not, I will go back and tell my grandfather that my grandfather will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow!" Xie Yi reacted immediately, jumped out of the carriage, and cursed in front of the man in white robe.
"I have your father's private seal." The white-robed man said without fear.
Hearing this, he even gritted his teeth and said with gratitude, "So what! Even if my father stands here today, I am not afraid! My grandmother is my grandfather's wife! The person who was born to be my grandfather will die because of my grandfather's ghost." ! It’s just you! You still want to snatch a woman from my grandfather! Go see the Lord of Hell!” After saying that, he thanked you and inserted himself between the two people, protecting the woman in the white robe like an old hen. Gu Ruosu was frightened by the shamelessness of others.
"Get out of my way, little girl."
"Get out! I won't let you!"
The man in white robe no longer appreciated the little girl's gratitude. He just relied on his height to look at the stunned Gu Ruosu, then let out a chuckle and took off his coat.
"You can get out of the way now."
"Can...grandfather..."
The person who took off his robe still wore a silver mask, but the two white hairs that stood out among the black hair and the ugly hairpin made everyone recognize his identity - Yan Guo Thank you, Mr. Ruqing
Everyone who had just come back to their senses breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this dramatic scene. They had been frightened just now. They were really afraid that some strange person would come out and steal their master from them. If the master was really robbed, what would happen to the country? The father-in-law must kill them. They almost even thought about how to die just now...
Fortunately, okay, it was the Duke himself who intercepted the road... My life was saved... I was saved...
"Handsome guy... no... Xie Ruqing?" Compared with everyone's relaxation, Gu Ruosu's heart was raised in her throat again. Xie Ruqing has been the original owner's pillow for more than ten years, and she is very familiar with the original owner. If she were not careful, she would probably be in trouble... and then her life would come to an end...
"Well...I'm here." Xie Ruqing paused for a long time before replying.
"Have you slept well recently... Hahaha" Gu Ruosu's mind was in a state of confusion at the moment, and she didn't know what to say. She only remembered that Xie Ruqing in her memory had suffered from insomnia and dreaminess over the years, so she reluctantly said with concern.
"I couldn't sleep well without you." Xie Ruqing replied very seriously.
Nonsense, even though the original owner was with him, he couldn't sleep well... Gu Ruosu complained in her heart, but she said: "It's okay... I'm back now... I'll accompany you..."
"Okay." Xie Ruqing replied while putting the white robe she had just put on on Gu Ruosu's body: "It's raining, be careful of catching a cold."
"Ah... ok... let's go back, the rain is getting heavier..." Gu Ruosu, whose eyes were covered by a loose white robe, said in a muffled voice.
"Okay, I'll listen to you..." As he said that, Xie Ruqing ignored Gu Ruosu's exclamations, picked him up and carried him onto his horse.
"My wife and I will leave first. You can find a place to rest by yourselves. We will go back when the rain stops."
After saying that, Xie Ruqing pinched the horse's belly hard, and the white horse immediately galloped away looking for the way home.
"Don't be afraid, I'll protect you." Gu Ruosu, who was riding on a horse for the first time, was so scared that she didn't dare to open her eyes, but suddenly she heard a gentle and inexplicably reassuring voice in her ears, and then she felt Something fell on the side of her face through the white robe, and it disappeared in an instant.
Oh my god! She, a young lady who has never even been in love, was kissed!
As promised, Xie Ruqing is a polite and indifferent gentleman! ! !
