Lin Xixue had some headaches. According to the shopkeeper's description, the young owner of this Ziren Hall wasn't the dandy Young Master Gu, who else could it be?

Speaking of which, from the conversation between Xu Zhiyi and the servant of the Xu family, it seems that this young master of the Gu family is also the one who wants to marry her?
Although the possibility of having the same surname is not ruled out, Lin Xixue's impression of him is three points worse.

Originally, she didn't want to have any interaction with this person, but now she had to go to him in order to build the temple.

Forget it, now that I am wearing a veil, this young master of the Gu family might not be able to recognize me.

It was getting late, Lin Xixue didn't delay any longer, and rushed to the entrance of Chenghuangmiao Street, but before she got close, she heard a loud shout.

"A mouthful of black, what are you cowardling, go on!"

"Bite it, bite it!"

"Hey, turn it over, bite its neck!"

"Hey, what are you talking about!"

During this time, there were the sounds of sleeves fluttering, chest beating, fans beating on the stone platform, and foul language and curses all mixed together.

After a while, Xu Shi and the two worms fought each other, and everyone was in an uproar, as if the result of the competition was an upset.

First Young Master Gu stepped on the stone platform, rolled up his sleeves to half his arms, took out his handkerchief to wipe off his sweat, and shouted repeatedly: "Again, I won't believe it today!"

Taking advantage of the intermission, Lin Xixue hurried forward, called to Young Master Gu, and expressed her intention to come.

"Young Master, I have a business to discuss with you."

"No time, no time, there is a voice to go to Zi Ren Hall to find Uncle Zheng, didn't you see this young master fighting crickets here?" He waved his hand, and wanted to send Lin Xixue away.

But he suddenly felt that the woman's voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, and the movements of his hands froze immediately.

!!!

Isn't this the voice of the woman I met in the book shop before!

He hastily put down his legs that were stepping on the stone platform, straightened the agate makeup on his forehead and wiped his forehead, put down his sleeves, straightened his front, unfolded the folding fan with a sound of "swish", and fanned the wind calmly.

He cleared his throat, waved his hands, and motioned to the left and right to take away all the utensils for fighting crickets on the stone platform, then rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture of please.

"Hehe. Girl, please sit down." He smiled awkwardly, pretending that the expulsion just now hadn't happened.

Seeing his polite appearance, Lin Xixue sighed slightly, knowing that she was still recognized by the other party.

But this dude's memory is really good, just by hearing the voice, you can be sure it's me?

However, even if this dude recognized him, Lin Xixue didn't intend to take advantage of him.

"Young Master Gu, I'm here today to discuss a business with you, so there's no need to be so polite."

"Young lady, my name is Yu. My lady calls me Gu Yu. A few days ago, I bought some good stir-fried greens. It's a cool night. Why don't you do me a favor and have tea together?"

"I'm not used to drinking, let's talk about business. In fact, I came here this time to find you to build a temple in Linghu Village outside the city."

"It turns out that Linghu Village is not too far from our Xinliang City, but I don't know what kind of temple the girl wants to build?"

"As long as the rules are not exceeded, the higher the regulations, the better."

"So that's how it is." Gu Yu dialed the abacus in the air, and said with a free and easy smile: "It's a small problem, and this matter is covered by Gu!"

"In this way, it's a deal. Please tell me the price, and I will send the cash to Zi Ren Guan later." Lin Xixue was about to end the topic neatly.

"Young lady, why are you so obsessed with others? It's nothing more than building a temple. Naturally, I won't accept money from you, but if you want to have tea and enjoy the moon with me."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Xixue stopped the conversation and said: "In business, I'd better ask you to quote a clear price. As for the tea, you have already got a marriage contract with the second lady of the Xu family. At this time It’s not right to have tea with me again.”

Gu Yu was startled at first, as if he didn't expect that she knew about his engagement with the Xu family, but then he showed a rather gentle smile.

"Girl, don't worry, I don't have any interest in the little girl's film in Xu's house. It's just my parents' order, the matchmaker's words, and it's just superficial work."

"Although she is the main house in name after passing through the door, the girl's three letters and six engagements, Gu, will not be less, and the girl will not be wronged."

Lin Xixue felt a little queasy, how could Gu Yu say such shameless words.

But she immediately felt relieved, assuming that normality is defined according to shared cognition, then it is obvious that three wives and four concubines are normal in this world, but she is the abnormal one.

So, I don't agree with things that everyone in the world agrees with. How can I say that this world is crazy? Obviously I am crazy.

She seemed to be smiling bitterly, and also seemed to be smiling silly, but in short she smiled.

"Why is the girl laughing?" Gu Yu was a little puzzled, "If the girl doubts Gu's sincerity, she can go home now and ask her father to write a letter of engagement and go to your residence to propose marriage."

"It's nothing, it's just that my home is too far away, you can't go there, if the young master insists on not accepting money, I have no choice but to go to other towns and find other Zi people I don't know to work."

For some reason, she felt a little tired again, and had no interest in continuing to communicate.

When Gu Yu heard Lin Xixue's words, he hesitated for a moment, and finally quoted a price: "The total is 720 nine taels of silver, and I can erase the change for the girl."

"There's no need to erase the change, I'll send the cash to the Ziren Pavilion later." Lin Xixue didn't want to owe Gu Yu any favors, and it's best not to have any intersections in the future.

After speaking, she got up and wanted to leave.

Gu Yu sat on the spot, lost in a sense of loss, and after a moment of distraction, he stood up and asked, "Can you tell me your name?"

"No, Mr. Gu's family background is prominent, I'm afraid there are countless women in Liang Chengzhong who want to marry you, why do you want to look far away?"

After Lin Xixue finished speaking, she left decisively, leaving Gu Yu alone in place.

She looked at the sky, and there was still a long time before midnight, so she looked at the Town God's Temple not far away.

Earlier, she wanted to ask the blacksmith Xue Xi if she could see the black feather coat on her body, but she didn't have time to ask because of a sudden change in the middle.

There is still time right now, how about visiting the Temple of the City God?

However, with the experience of entering Wuzeng Temple before, she naturally would not enter Chenghuang Temple rashly this time. She just found the Zhike Daotong in front of the temple gate, explained her purpose of coming, and hoped that Miaozhu would come out and tell.

This Zhike Daotong looked only eleven or twelve years old, with a sallow complexion and not very tall. Hearing about Lin Xixue's intentions, he trotted all the way to the hall.

It was getting late, but through the temple gate, Lin Xixue could still see some devout pilgrims burning incense around the censer in front of the main hall.

Smelling the pungent smell wafting from the burning incense, Lin Xixue suddenly felt a little hungry again.

But as soon as she thought about it, she felt that the stone lions on the left and right suddenly turned their heads and glared at her, with saliva dripping down their sharp canine teeth from their bloody mouths.

She quickly turned her head to confirm, but the stone lion was staring at the front quietly, showing no signs of movement.

Another hallucination?

She closed her eyes and covered her forehead, trying to wake herself up.
