Luoyang Brocade Chapter 35: Night Talk (1)
"Miss, all the clothes and luggage of the Four Seasons have been packed. All the fine jewelry and the like have also been packed." Bai Yu reported softly: "There are eight wooden boxes in total."
The accompanying maids also packed a lot of baggage.
Ling Jingshu hummed and said casually: "Later, grandma will ask Mo Kui to send some jewelry and pearls, so take them all with you."
Today, my grandmother gave me five thousand taels in silver notes, and asked for another four thousand taels from Master Ling Wu. Adding in the private money in her and Ling Xiao's hands, the total amount exceeded ten thousand taels. There are also various kinds of fine and soft jewelry, which can also be converted into a large amount of silver.
If she saves money on food and expenses, it will be enough for her and A Xiao for half a lifetime.
Bai Yu responded and couldn't help but whisper: "Miss, you brought all your private money with you. Maybe you don't plan to return to Dingzhou in the future!"
No wonder Bai Yu would have such speculation.
Ling Jingshu not only brought her personal money, but also everything valuable and valuable was packed away in Qiushui Pavilion, except for things that were heavy and difficult to carry and fragile and not suitable for long distance transportation.
I am just accompanying Master Xiao to the capital for medical treatment. Do I need to bring so many things?
Ling Jingshu stared at Bai Yu and whispered: "If I say yes, will you be surprised?"
For Ling Jingshu, the closest person in the world besides Ling Xiao is Bai Yu. Although Bai Yu is just a maid, in her heart, she is similar to a sister. Except for the secret of rebirth, she hid almost nothing from Bai Yu.
With Bai Yu's intelligence and keenness, it was only a matter of time before he noticed her true intentions.
As expected, Bai Yu was not surprised when he heard this, but there was a look of worry in his eyes: "Miss, although the old lady doesn't care about you and the young master, with the old lady here, no one in this house will dare to neglect. In the future, If the young master can cure his eyes, he can go back to school and take the scientific examination. All of this depends on the Ling family. Staying in the capital is not an option. After all, it is the long house, and living under someone else's roof is not a long-term solution."
"Besides, in one or two years, the young lady and the young master will both reach the age of proposing marriage. The old lady and the master have to make the final decision on the marriage. What if they don't go back to Dingzhou?"
Bai Yu considered it very realistically.
Ling Jingshu twitched the corners of her lips and said lightly: "I have thought about all the problems you mentioned. I will find ways to solve them one by one in the future."
"In short, just be aware of this matter. Don't let it slip in front of anyone. Even in front of Ah Xiao, don't mention it for the time being."
Ling Jingshu looked calm and her tone was firm, obviously she had made up her mind.
The advantage of white jade is that it is loyal and doesn't talk too much. What the master decides will be carried out silently and obediently without questioning. Even if it is such a major thing that can affect the destiny of life.
Bai Yu nodded and agreed softly.
When she believed Li's words and agreed to give Bai Yu as Li Erlang's concubine, Bai Yu was obviously reluctant and nodded silently.
Looking at Bai Yu's calm and beautiful face, Ling Jingshu felt a trace of sourness in her heart.
Bai Yu, I failed to protect you in my previous life. In this life, I will take you and A Xiao far and wide. No one can hurt you two anymore.
As for the Li family, they harmed Ah Xiao and Bai Yu. Even if she leaves Dingzhou, she will not let Mr. Li live a stable and comfortable life.
"Bai Yu, when it gets dark, go to my elder brother to deliver a message for me."
A coldness flashed in Ling Jingshu's eyes, and she whispered: "Just tell him that I have something important to tell him, and ask him to come to Qiushui Pavilion after midnight. Don't let anyone see you when you come. I personally guard the courtyard gate and lead my eldest brother into my house."
This sudden order surprised Bai Yu.
However, Bai Yu did not ask further questions and just nodded in agreement.
......
After dark, Bai Yu quietly went to see Ling Ting.
Ling Ting was quite surprised when he saw Bai Yu coming to ask for an audience: "What are you asking for?"
Bai Yu explained the purpose of her visit in a low voice and respectfully: "This slave has come to see the eldest young master on the order of the young lady. The young lady has something important to discuss. Please come to the Qiushui Pavilion at midnight tonight."
Ling Ting frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Is there anything we can't talk about in the daytime, but we have to go to Qiushui Pavilion at midnight?"
This mysterious style will inevitably give people a bad association.
Bai Yu replied with a look of embarrassment: "The young lady only gave this order to the slave, and the slave does not know the specific details."
After a pause, he said: "It's getting late. The eldest young master will know everything if he waits for a few more hours. Please be careful when you come to Qiushui Pavilion and don't be noticed by anyone. I'm still here." I have to go back and resume my duties, so I’ll take my leave first.”
I have to say that Ling Ting's curiosity was completely aroused.
What important matter did Ling Jingshu have that she had to tell him at midnight? He also specifically told him not to let anyone notice when he went. Presumably, he wanted to avoid the spy Mr. Li placed around him...
Ling Ting thought about it and couldn't figure out the reason.
After finishing dinner without any taste, I read a book in the study for a long time restlessly, and finally stayed up till midnight. At this time, the people in the mansion had already rested. Ling Ting stayed in the study under the pretext of reading, which did not arouse any suspicion.
In the dead of night, everything is silent.
Ling Ting left the garden alone and quietly arrived outside Qiushui Pavilion.
Before he knocked on the door, the door of Qiushui Pavilion opened. Bai Yu's face appeared in front of Ling Ting, and he whispered quickly: "Young Master, please follow me in."
Ling Ting hummed and followed Bai Yu into Qiushui Pavilion.
Bai Yu led Ling Ting to Ling Jingshu's bedroom and opened the slightly ajar door.
After Ling Ting entered the house, Bai Yu immediately closed the door and guarded the door cautiously.
......
Two candlesticks were burning in the room, the light was soft and quiet. Ling Jingshu stood there handsomely and smiled at Ling Ting: "Brother, I have been waiting for a long time."
Ling Jingshu's natural beauty was now shrouded in soft candlelight, making her look even more breathtaking.
The eyes are moving and the eyes are shining.
Even though Ling Ting was used to seeing Ling Jingshu's beauty, he couldn't help but take a breath at this time. I secretly thought to myself, no wonder both the Lu Hong brothers were fascinated by it.
Who among men can see such beauty and not be tempted?
Although Lu Hong and Lu Qian tried to cover up their affairs, Ling Ting, who had a keen mind, had already noticed what their two brothers were thinking. I just keep pretending not to know.
Ling Ting coughed and opened his mouth: "My sister specially asked me to come over in the middle of the night today. I don't know if we have anything important to discuss."
Ling Jingshu smiled slightly and said calmly: "I specially invited brother here because there is indeed something extremely important."
Ling Ting's whole body tensed up inexplicably, always feeling that what he was about to hear next would surprise him.
Sure enough, I heard Ling Jingshu say slowly: "Brother, A Xiao and I are leaving Dingzhou for the capital tomorrow. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ling Ting was shocked and blurted out: "Leaving tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry? "There wasn't even the slightest news before, so why are you suddenly going to the capital?
Ling Xiao was blind and rarely even left the Ling family's front door, let alone traveled long distances. Ling Jingshu took Ling Xiao to Luoyang thousands of miles away for what purpose?
Ling Jingshu said calmly: "I heard that there is a doctor Wei who specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases in the capital. His medical skills are very good. He has cured many incurable terminal diseases. Axiao injured his brain when he fell and became blind. I want to take him with me. He went to the capital to seek medical advice, which might cure his eyes."
What?
Ling Xiao went to the capital to treat his eye disease?
Ling Ting's expression remained unchanged, but his heart suddenly sank.
Although he is the eldest son of the fifth family, he is a concubine. My biological mother was rejected by my father and died of illness a few years ago. Now the most favored person in the fifth house is the youngest son Ling Huo. Although Ling Xiao was his legitimate son, he became a **** because of his blindness. In the eyes of Fifth Master Ling, he was worse than a **** like him.
If Ling Xiao cures his eyes, where will he have a foothold in these five houses in the future?
Ling Jingshu's eyes were deep, as if she had seen through all of Ling Ting's dark and secret thoughts, and she asked word for word: "Brother, are you really willing to live under others for the rest of your life?"
Ling Ting took a breath and his expression quietly changed.
