Chapter 199 The escort is on the way 31
Lin Chujiu gathered his clothes and returned to the room.
The fire in the room was still burning, and there was a wooden box on the table.
Inside the box is a wooden hairpin, carved from fine green sandalwood. The pattern on the hairpin is simple and exudes a light woody fragrance.
Lin Chujiu looked through it and found a small word engraved in an inconspicuous place.
green.
There is only one person with Qing in his name, Ye Qing.
Why did he give himself a hairpin?
Could it be that my hairpin was too ugly and he couldn't stand it, so he gave it to me?
Lin Chujiu took off the wooden hairpin on his head. He bought it during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was indeed a bit old, but it wasn't that bad.
dong dong dong.
There was a knock on the door, and Lin Chujiu put the wooden hairpin back into the box.
As soon as he opened the door, he was hugged around his waist.
The furry hat rubbed against Lin Chujiu's chin. Ye Yunsheng raised his head, his eyes were moist and the tip of his nose was red.
"Master, I'm sorry"
"I'm stupid, selfish, and stingy. I only paid 2000 taels for you and Tang Ziyao, master, to protect me. I also delayed your schedule and kept pestering you, master."
Ye Yun was afraid that he had no idea about 2000 taels.
2000 taels is enough for him to transport a life and death dart.
What's more, his father also sent another 5000 taels to the escort agency.
This father and son are truly the Gods of Wealth.
Lin Chujiu touched him and said, "Xiaoye, don't think too much, there are not many employers as generous as you."
Most employers prefer to haggle and cut the price in half.
Lin Chujiu told the truth, but Ye Yunsheng mistakenly thought that he was comforting him. His eyes instantly filled with mist, and he hugged Lin Chujiu with trembling lips and cried loudly.
"Master, woo woo, master"
"You are the best master in the world, woo woo woo"
"Master, what is my status in your heart?"
Lin Chujiu said honestly, "The boy who gives you money"
Ye Yunsheng forgot to cry for a moment, "Master? What about my father?"
"...the God of Wealth"
Lin Chujiu was slightly embarrassed.
Ye Yunsheng let go of his hand, lowered his head, his body trembled slightly, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Lin Chujiu touched his nose, trying to save what he had just said.
"Ahem, Xiaoye, that's not what I meant, don't get me wrong."
Ye Yunsheng covered his face with his hands and shook even harder.
"Xiaoye?" Lin Chujiu bent down to check his condition.
I saw him saying inarticulately, "Master, master, my tears are frozen on my face. It's so cold. I'm warming it up."
"..."
Lin Chujiu quickly brought people into the house.
-
Snow is heavy on the branches, and a few sparrows are huddled in the eaves.
The snow in the capital has been piled ankle deep.
Several children wrapped in rice dumplings were playing in the snow with Cuju in their arms.
It has been five or six days since I came back.
Lin Chujiu stuffed the hot buns he just bought into Ye Yunsheng's hands, "Xiaoye, go back quickly, don't keep Master Ye waiting too long."
Ye Yunsheng picked up the bun and put it on his cheek, which was already red from the cold. "Master, I will go back today to report to my mother that I am safe. I will come to see you after the New Year. You must be at the escort agency."
"Young Master, it will be difficult to walk if the snow is deeper." The coachman held the horse, and there were already a lot of snowflakes on the raincoat.
"Coming soon." Ye Yunsheng took a few steps, turned around, and shouted, "Master, you must wait for me, I will definitely come to you!"
Lin Chujiu waved to him.
At the same time, inside Qingfeng Escort Agency.
"Ziyao, what's going on between you and your junior brother? Are you having a conflict? Why have you been deliberately avoiding him since you came back?" Thirteenth Senior Sister asked, leaning her head.
The fourth senior brother helped, "Yes, Ziyao, there is strength in numbers. If you have any problem, please speak up and we will solve it together."
If he tells the truth, all senior brothers and sisters must not beat him to death.
Tang Ziyao put down the account book he was dealing with, "Fourth Senior Brother, Thirteenth Senior Sister, Chujiu and I are fine, it's because you are overthinking it."
After saying that, he lowered his head and looked at the ledger again. The fourth senior brother took out the ledger and gave him an umbrella.
"Since there is no conflict, you go to pick up Chujiu today. It's snowing heavily outside. He should have returned from seeing off his young apprentice by now."
The fourth senior brother obviously didn't believe his words and gave Tang Ziyao a chance to be alone.
"Go quickly, the snow will become deep and it will be difficult to walk."
Tang Ziyao looked outside and saw snowflakes falling. He picked up his umbrella and went out.
The carriage gradually drove out of sight, and Lin Chujiu patted the snowflakes on his shoulders.
The falling snowflakes overhead were blocked by an umbrella.
Who will hold an umbrella for him?
Lin Chujiu looked up and saw that the man holding the umbrella was wearing a brocade hat and a thick cotton robe, with a delicate appearance.
"Ye Qing, what a coincidence. Are you going to be on duty today?"
When their eyes met, Ye Qing looked away slightly first and hummed softly.
Ye Qingguo looked shy when he told the truth.
"By the way, you are interested in that wooden hairpin from last time." Lin Chujiu curved his lips and smiled, "This is for you." He put a piece of warm jade in Ye Qing's hand, "It is quite useful to warm your hands in winter. "
A sense of warmth restored some feeling to his hands that had been numb from the cold, and Ye Qing's ears hidden under his brocade hat felt slightly warm.
"Do you want to go back? The snow is too heavy, I will send you away"
Lin Chujiu shook his head, "You should go about your business first. It's not far from the escort office. I can hide from the snow by walking along the street shop. I'll be there in a short while."
Ye Qing lowered his eyelids to hide the regret in his eyes.
"it is good"
“See you next time, I wish you a happy New Year’s Eve in advance and have a good year.”
Lin Chujiu put his hands on his head like an umbrella, took a few steps and quickly shuttled under the eaves.
In the heavy snow, his figure gradually shrank.
Ye Qing turned around, put the warm jade to the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
The warm jade carries a light fragrance with its owner.
Although he moved nimbly, a lot of snowflakes inevitably fell on his body when he ran to the escort office.
Lin Chujiu happened to bump into someone holding an umbrella and walking out of the escort agency's door.
"Brother Tang, do you want to go out?" Lin Chujiu gasped.
"Planning to pick you up"
Tang Ziyao took a few steps forward, pulled the man back under the eaves, and patiently swept the snow off his shoulders.
"Brother Tang, I can do it myself"
Just as Lin Chujiu was about to refuse his move, she heard his lowered voice, "Brother and sister, they don't believe that we get along like before. This is for them to see."
Lin Chujiu also noticed the prying eyes of several senior brothers and sisters.
Seeing that the man calmed down, Tang Ziyao felt more lucky, and then raised his hand to brush away the white snow from his hair.
"Chujiu, I will be a good brother from now on."
The snow fell and melted, melted and fell again.
Until the thin ice on the river surface completely melts, the willow branches sprout buds again, and winter is completely over.
On this day, Lin Chujiu read the letter in his hand, put it into a box as usual, and began to reply.
The box already contained a thick stack of letters, all from Ye Yunsheng.
"Junior brother, there is a young master outside looking for you."
"Coming soon." Lin Chujiu folded the letter, stood up and walked out.
"Young Master Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm fine."
The person who came was none other than Yan Hanchun.
bother you for something.
Yan Hanchun raised his eyebrows and glanced around the escort office, "Why don't you see Mr. Tang?"
Lin Chujiu poured two cups of tea and said, "Brother Tang, he went out as an escort and hasn't come back yet."
"I didn't expect that there would be times when he wouldn't be escorting with you."
