Chapter 432
The snowflakes got heavier and heavier, piece by piece, like catkins falling on the ground. The rustling sound of the snowflakes could be heard.
Mu Yunyao slightly moved the oil-paper umbrella away and stretched out her hand to catch the snowflakes. Pieces of white snow landed on her palm. At the beginning, they had turned into water droplets.
His fingers were numb from the cold, but his mind was in a mess.
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao walked out quickly. Seeing Mu Yunyao's absent-minded appearance, they hurriedly went up to her and covered her with a cloak. "Miss, what are you doing? It's snowing too hard. Let's hurry back. "
Mu Yunyao allowed Jin Lan to wipe her fingers clean before stuffing a stove in her bosom, "It's been a long time since I've admired the snow in the north. I want to look around, the two of you rest in the room. No need to follow me."
Jin Qiao was very worried. "Miss, if you were to catch a cold from such a heavy snowfall, you would feel as uncomfortable as you did during the New Year."
"It's fine, don't worry." After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she took large strides forward.
Jin Qiao looked at Jin Lan helplessly. "Are we really not going to follow?"
"Let the little miss be quiet by herself. Too many things have happened recently, so it's better to be in front of the little miss." Let the little miss be quiet by herself, too many things have happened recently.
"However, the young miss is alone, and it's hard for people to rest at ease."
"It's alright, I will definitely follow them from the shadows."
"Alright then."
Mu Yunyao held onto her oil-paper umbrella as she walked aimlessly. At this moment, the monks had all returned to their rooms. There was not a single person in sight, only the ancient trees and the faint fragrance of pine in the air.
The snow had accumulated a layer on the ground, creaking under their feet.
As Mu Yunyao walked, she couldn't help but walk to the Spirit Creek.
Last time he came here, Ling Xi had been filled with river lamps. This time, the river surface had already been frozen, and the clear stream filled with starlight could no longer be seen.
A wind blew, and snow scattered in all directions. Mu Yunyao was caught off guard for a moment as the oil-paper umbrella in her hand was blown to the ground.
Mu Yunyao looked at the oil-paper umbrella that had fallen to the ground, and for some reason, she felt like she was greatly wronged.
His footsteps lightly landed, then he walked out from who knows where. He picked up the paper umbrella and respectfully passed it to Mu Yunyao. "Miss, it's snow-white today, hurry up and support the paper umbrella."
His clothes were thin, and it was unknown how long he had been in the snow. His entire body was covered in a thick chill, and his hair and shoulders were covered with snow. Only his eyes were still warm and focused.
Looking at such a figure, Mu Yunyao's heart fiercely trembled. "On your body …"
Liu Gan carelessly brushed away the snowflakes on his hand. "I have martial arts as my foundation, so I don't think the weather right now is too hard to bear." Seeing that Mu Yunyao didn't take the paper umbrella, he carefully wiped the snow off the umbrella. Then, he reached out and placed the paper umbrella over Mu Yunyao's head. Six silvers, you have been by my side for quite some time already. I have never asked about your true identity, and I have never wanted to know your name. If one did not know his identity or his name, one could simply treat him as a subordinate and enjoy him in peace …
Loyalty would make use of his ability, but in the end, she could not be heartless and did not have the peace of mind to enjoy herself.
"This subordinate's name was given to me by Miss, six taels." He understood his mistress's meaning, but if he were to reveal his name and identity today, it would be difficult for him to stay by her side. " "You …" Mu Yunyao slightly creased her brows. Looking at the calm expression on her face, she couldn't help but laugh, "I forgot your temper, six silvers is a lot more appreciative towards others, but it's a good thing for me to repay this kindness with water, but don't be too foolish. Think about everything that happened to me, I was nothing more than that time.
"Out of curiosity, I spent six taels of silver to buy you from a man. If it wasn't for me and someone else, you would only harm yourself if you dug out hearts and lungs for others like this." The scene of when he first met Mu Yunyao flashed through his mind. At that time, she was dressed in men's clothing, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her gaze was clear, as if she was a young master who didn't know the hardships of the mortal world. She spent six taels of silver to buy him, but there wasn't the slightest bit of contempt in her eyes.
Buying a sword, giving him food and clothing, giving it to him for him to trust, that was why he was so determined to stay by her side: because she was worth it!
Seeing that she was silent, Mu Yunyao slightly sighed: "Everyone says that the human heart is the most fickle thing in this world. I've already said before, when did you think it through and you don't want to stay by my side? You can directly speak, and at that time, I hope you're willing to tell me your name and identity."
"... "Alright."
Seeing that the umbrella was placed on her head and she didn't care about the snow on her body at all, Mu Yunyao walked to the pavilion not far away. Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness around her, she couldn't help but let out a long breath.
"Their names already gained the King's trust, causing the King to think that he was one of Prince Jin's men. After being hunted down by the King, the King's heart became completely cold, and he decided to work under the King. Soon, the Treasure Auction will arrive in the capital."
"Working together has always made people feel at ease. Didn't he take the opportunity to fish up some porridge this time?"
"That's not true. The grains that I bought earlier were sold to Supervisor Qin for a low price to make into ginger tea and sent to western Guangdong. Recently, he has been selling raw silk and cloth and earned a small amount of silver taels."
Mu Yunyao smiled, "This kind of talent is really rare. Get others to pay more attention to him and don't let any danger appear. Once the Duke of Yu's suspicions are aroused, we can withdraw. Don't let yourself be in danger."
"Yes, rest assured Miss, your subordinate will tell him." Mu Yunyao looked at the snowflakes on his body. Some of them had already melted and were soaking his clothes, "Grand Princess Yi De has brought many people to protect the surroundings so there won't be any problems.
Nothing will happen. "
They hesitated for a moment and then said with worry, "The young miss' safety is more important."
"Don't worry, it's not like I'm completely unprepared. Go home early and change your clothes, don't get the cold." Mu Yunyao took the paper umbrella from her hands and supported herself as she walked in the direction of the room. As she gazed at her figure, her eyes were especially focused. In the midst of the snow, she was supporting a paper umbrella that was drawing the remnants of the ink and water lotus. She walked forward while stepping on the snow that filled the sky.
The sky was filled with black and white, and the only thing that could be seen were the different colours on her body. It was as if his world had originally been a barren wasteland, and just when he was about to lose all hope, she charged in recklessly, bringing him to a new world. He didn't want to think of his old name, nor did he want to speak of his previous identity. He called her 'six taels of silver', and would always call her 'six taels of silver'!
