When the young master walked out of the small courtyard, there was a faint smile on his face.
This girl called Li Ru still couldn't resist the charm of the young master of the provincial governor.
Although he already had a few wives and concubines, and among them were young ladies from famous families, famous prostitutes from brothels, and clean families, the moment he saw this Miss Li, he knew that she was different from those coquettish b * tches who only knew how to fight for a man's favor.
The unique temperament she had was something he had never seen before in his life.
If he could hold such a girl in his arms, it would probably be the pinnacle of a man's life.
He was already a little impatient, and he couldn't help but quicken his steps.
…
In the small courtyard, Lin Yong looked at Lin Wanru and said anxiously, "Miss, how can you agree to that guy with the surname Ma? If you marry him, won't you not be able to marry the Li Brothers?"
This time, even Xiu 'er couldn't stand it anymore. She glared at him and said, "Are you stupid? Only when this letter is sent back will Li know that we are in the provincial governor's manor. Otherwise, in this vast and chaotic Sheng Province, where will he go to find us?"
Lin Yong scratched his head and said worriedly, "But what if, what if Li can't make it in time …"
"We can only do this for now." Lin Wanru sighed. She had traveled all over these years and seen countless people. This young master of the provincial governor seemed to be modest on the surface, but he was actually ruthless on the inside. If she feigned civility with him and pretended to agree first, it would instead delay a little more. If she rejected him with an unyielding attitude, it would instead infuriate him even faster …
She looked to the side and said, "Xiu 'er, go and get a brush and ink."
Not long later, Xiu 'er came over with a brush and paper. She mumbled, "Li, quickly come and save us …"
…
The young master held a letter in his hand and casually opened it. After reading it, he nodded in satisfaction.
In the end, she didn't play any tricks. This letter was just an ordinary letter from home. The contents of the letter also said that she was about to get married and couldn't invite her parents over. It was an unfilial daughter … and so on.
The young master read the letter several times and then put it back. He said to a servant, "Send this letter to Liuzhou as soon as possible. Send my regards to my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
"Yes, Young Master!" The servant answered, took the letter, and quickly left.
The young man walked to the side and impatiently asked an old man, "It's been so long. Are you done with your divination?"
"It's done, it's done …" The old man closed the thick book in his hand and hurriedly said, "Young Master, I've already matched your and Miss Li's birthdays. The nearest auspicious day is three months later."
"Three months?" Hearing this, the Young Master frowned and said, "Three months is too long. Is there anyone closer? One month at most. I can't wait any longer …"
"One month …" The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "One month, yes, but …"
"But what?"
"But it's not as auspicious as three months later."
The Young Master waved his hand and said, "Forget it. One month at most. Do as you see fit. If you do well, you'll be rewarded. If not …"
He coldly looked at the old man. The old man hurriedly said, "There will be a good auspicious day in 28 days. Don't worry, Young Master. I'll arrange it properly for you …"
In the small courtyard, Xiu'Er counted with her fingers. "28 days. It'll take about half a month to get to Liuzhou from here. If it's urgent, it must be urgent …"
…
In a house somewhere in Liuzhou.
The two masters had been gone for several days. No one supervised his practice. Everyone was packing up. Li Duan walked back and forth in the yard, looking a little bored.
Even Li Mu was packing up his small bag. Li Duan had nothing to pack. After practicing for a while, he became even more bored.
He looked in a certain direction, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over.
His aunt hadn't spanked him for a long time. Li Duan was a little less afraid of her.
He walked over, looked up and asked in a low voice, "Aunt, we're going back soon. Where are Dad and Master?"
Ruyi looked at him and said, "They went to pick up Aunt Wanru."
Li Duan asked Fang several times when he would call Aunt Lin 'mother', but Uncle Fang always said it was not the right time …
Now they were going back. Dad should be picking up Aunt Wanru and going back together.
He felt the time was right.
Fang and his father left together. Li Duan had no one to ask, so he looked up at Miss.Liu and asked, "Aunt, now that Aunt Wanru is back, will I call her mother?"
Miss.Liu raised her eyebrows, looked down at him, and asked, "Who told you?"
"That's what Uncle Fang said." Li Duan thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Fang used to say it was not the right time to call Aunt Wanru. Is it the right time now?"
"I don't know." Miss.Liu shook her head. Even she didn't hear the annoyance in her voice.
Li Duan said, "Oh." Even his aunt didn't know. But even if his aunt didn't know Aunt Wanru, she should know herself, right?
So he raised his head and asked again, "Then when is the right time for me to call her mother? Why don't I call her mother instead?"
He thought for a moment and added, "If I call you mother, will you still spank me? My mother, Second Mother, and Third Mother don't spank me …"
When Li Duan realized that the atmosphere was not right, he turned around and ran outside.
Every time he felt the temperature around his aunt start to turn cold, it meant that his butt was going to be in trouble.
However, just like before, he still didn't run away.
But there was something different this time. This time, when the slap landed on his butt, it didn't hurt, unlike when he was naughty and crying.
Miss.Liu looked at him and asked with a frown, "Who taught you these words?"
"No one taught me …" Since his butt didn't hurt, Li Duan had the courage to say what was on his mind. He pulled up his pants and said, "I just want Aunt to become mother too, so that our family can be together forever …"
…
Li Duan patted his butt and left. Although the doubts in his heart hadn't been solved, he found a shortcut that wouldn't involve him being spanked.
Bai Su walked in from outside and patted his head. Then, he walked to the side of the Second Young Lady Liu and handed her a letter. He said, "Alliance Master, there is a strange letter."
"Strange?"
Bai Su nodded and said, "The person who delivered the letter said that it was from a lady named 'Li Ru', but we don't have a lady named Li Ru here …"
There was an address on the back of the letter. Miss.Liu took a look and found that the address was correct.
"Li Ru?" She murmured and opened the letter. It was an ordinary letter from home. It said that this lady named 'Li Ru' had met a man she liked in Shengzhou and was going to get married in a month. Now that the Qi Kingdom was at war, she couldn't bring her parents with her, so she wrote this letter …
She didn't know this lady named 'Li Ru', but she knew the handwriting of this letter. It couldn't be more familiar.
The person who first taught her how to read was not Li Yi, but Lin Wanru. It started from the sentence 'Suddenly looking back, that person is in the dim light'.
The letter said that she was in Shengzhou and was going to marry the son of the provincial governor of Shengzhou.
The date of this letter was only five days after the last one when they were trapped in Shengzhou.
This was a letter asking for help. They had entered the provincial governor's office not long after they were trapped in Shengzhou.
But four days ago, Li Yi and Changde Xu had already set off for Shengzhou.
They still didn't know about this. They didn't know that Lin Wanru was in the provincial governor's office, and that she was going to be forced to marry the son of the provincial governor of Shengzhou in less than half a month.
If they couldn't find her when they arrived in Shengzhou, a few more days of delay would cause irreversible consequences.
Bai Su's expression was a little anxious. He said, "Chief, I'll go chase after them. I must tell him about this!"
Miss.Liu put the letter away and picked up Autumn Water. She said, "You go back to Shengzhou with them first. I'll go personally …"
