Chapter 266 Going Home
Lingyu covered the back of his hand and looked at her pitifully, "Wuwuwu benefactor, why did you hit me?"
Gu Qingyuan pointed at her clothes and said, "If I don't stop you, I think you'll take off all my clothes soon."
As she spoke, she adjusted her clothes in front of her. If you didn't know, you would think that the two of them had done something bad in the car.
Ling Yu lowered his head and said to his finger aggrievedly, "I was just worried about you. I smelled blood on you just now and thought you were injured and kept it from me."
After putting her clothes back on, Gu Qingyuan finally had the extra energy to take care of Lingyu. She explained to him helplessly: "There was a small incident, but don't worry, I'm fine."
"Then I'm glad you're okay."
Lingyu moved closer to her again, hugged her arms, and rested his head on her shoulder.
Considering that there might be a shortage of water on the road, Gu Qingyuan specially asked someone to buy a bucket, filled it with half a bucket of water and placed it on the carriage.
The carriage drove smoothly all the way, and although the water in the bucket swayed from side to side, it did not splash out.
The carriage that Gu Qingyuan was riding in was some distance away from the princess and the others. She had completely fallen out with her yesterday, and she knew that after returning to the capital, there would be no avoidance of a bloody storm.
Lingyu leaned on her shoulder and asked curiously, "What is your benefactor's home like?"
"You'll know when you come back with me."
Lingyu said "Oh" and then seemed to remember something and continued to ask her: "Then will there be fish to eat when I go back with you?"
Gu Qingyuan teased him deliberately and said, "No, my family is poor. I probably can't afford to buy fish."
She thought Lingyu would be anxious. After all, she felt that for Lingyu, if there were no fish to eat, it would be like the sky falling.
After hearing this, Lingyu seemed to have made a decision and said, "That's okay. I can catch fish for my benefactor. And..."
In the carriage, he revealed his fish tail again, smiled, and continued, "This scale should also be exchangeable for money. When the time comes, you can pluck them all out and sell them for money."
At this time, the two colorful fish scales he had plucked out for Gu Qingyuan the previous two times had not yet fully grown back, but he said that he could pluck them all out and exchange them for money.
This crying guy would probably cry even more miserably if one day all his scales were gone.
Gu Qingyuan pinched his fishtail and said, "Don't worry. Although my family is not rich, we are not dependent on you for support. Just come back with me."
Ling Yu approached her, looking worried, "Does the benefactor really not need my help?"
"No need, you won't lose any fish."
Lingyu tucked in his tail again and sat closer to her.
The journey back to the capital was smooth and unobstructed.
Gu Qingyuan decided to go home and change first, and then report to the Queen.
When the carriage stopped at the door of the Gu family, the gatekeeper saw Gu Qingyuan getting off the carriage and shouted loudly: "The young master is back! Our young master is back!"
At this time, everyone who had been waiting for her return in the courtyard immediately came out to greet her.
Especially Wen Shubai, thinking that he hadn't seen her for so long, when they meet again, he must tell her how much he misses her.
however.
After Gu Qingyuan got off the carriage, he lifted the curtain and reached inside.
I only heard her say gently: "We're home, come down."
Everyone in the Gu family was curious about who she was talking to. Then, a pair of white hands without a speck of dust touched hers. All they could see was a sea of white, and a white-haired man jumped off the carriage.
Although he has white hair, he does not look old, and even his blue eyes have a childlike innocence and purity.
Yu Shui secretly glanced at Wen Shubai and saw that he was staring at the man standing next to Gu Qingyuan, as if he wanted to stare a hole in the man.
Chunfen hadn't seen Gu Qingyuan for a while. At this moment, he strode forward and almost knelt down in front of Gu Qingyuan, saying with tears in his eyes: "Young Master, you are finally back. I missed you so much."
Perhaps the noise made by Chunfen was too loud and scared Lingyu. He hid behind Gu Qingyuan, with only half of his head showing, and held Gu Qingyuan's shoulders tightly.
"benefactor."
Gu Qingyuan supported Chunfen, who was about to fall to the ground, and said helplessly, "I'm back, aren't I? Do you have to be so exaggerated?"
Chunfen nodded and said, "I think the young master is missing you so much that he can't even eat."
Gu Qingyuan looked at her waist which seemed to have become rounder, and fell into deep thought.
Chunfen looked at the white-haired man behind Gu Qingyuan again and asked the question that everyone present wanted to know.
"By the way, young master, who is this person with white hair?"
Gu Qingyuan pulled Lingyu out and introduced him to them: "Well, he's someone I met in southern Xinjiang. His name is Lingyu. From now on, we're a family."
Feeling that Chunfen had no ill intentions, Lingyu smiled and said, "You are the benefactor's family, right? Hello!"
Ling Yu's smile made his already beautiful face even more dazzling.
"Okay, let's go in and talk."
Gu Qingyuan led Ling Yu inside. Ling Yu looked around and exclaimed, "What a big house! There are so many people!"
He didn't hide his surprise at all, but his innocent tone made Xu Fan, who followed him back, couldn't help but mutter: "An ignorant country bumpkin."
Xu Fan thought his voice was very soft, but after he finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent.
Gu Qingyuan saw a strange man's face and frowned, "Who are you? Are you a new servant?"
Xu Fan's expression froze for a moment, and he said in disbelief, "Cousin! I'm Xiaofan!"
Gu Qingyuan frowned even more tightly.
"Who is your cousin? Stop trying to get close to me."
Xu Fan bit his lip and said with some humiliation, "I...my cousin sent me here. How could my cousin say that to me?"
"Who is your cousin?"
"That's General Gu. My father is General Gu's cousin, Gu Yi."
Gu Qingyuan thought about it, but had no impression.
But since the person was sent here by her mother, she would go back and see if she could send this annoying person back.
With so many people around, Gu Qingyuan smiled politely and said, "So it's you, cousin."
She called out the word "cousin" very stiffly, as if it was squeezed out from between her teeth.
As they walked, the group arrived at the house.
Everyone had something on their mind, especially Wen Shubai, who didn't say a word along the way.
Gu Qingyuan drank a large glass of water first, then sat down and said, "Did anything happen at home while I was away?"
Ling Yu followed her closely. When Gu Qingyuan sat down, he stood close to her.
Wen Shubai replied calmly: "Everything is fine."
