The stepson of the Lin family of the Red Chamber

Lin Yao took a deep breath, and looked at the person Gu Zhen was about to beat up. He was wearing a student robe of Shanhai Academy, and he seemed to be a student of Shanhai Academy.

But Lin Yao didn't recognize it, it was an unfamiliar face.

"Azhen, do you recognize him?"

Gu Zhen took a breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, stared coldly at Xu Pan who was hiding behind the person, and said, "It's from class C[-], Xu Pan."

Standing in front of Gu Zhen, Xu Pan seemed to be frightened by the sudden appearance of Gu Zhen. Before that, he took several steps back, and had to drag someone to stand in front of him after two or three meters.

"Xu Pan? It seems familiar." Lin Yao seemed to have heard this name somewhere.

Gu Zhen glanced at Lin Yao, seemingly speechless, "His uncle is Wang Zimo."

Hearing this name, Lin Yao's first reaction was, who is Wang Zimo.

The doubt in Lin Yao's eyes was too obvious, Gu Zhen couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and the anger in his heart was lost by Lin Yao.

"It belongs to the royal family of Jinling."

Being reminded by this, Lin Yao instantly remembered who Wang Zimo was.

If we want to talk about this Prince Mo, we have to mention one person first.

The most promising person in the Wang family is Wang Ziteng. Wang Ziteng's father and Wang Zimo's father are brothers, that is to say, they are first cousins.

Moreover, the relationship between Wang Zimo and Wang Ziteng is quite good, and with Wang Ziteng's help, they have now been promoted to the position of magistrate.Xu Shi, the wife of Wang Zimo, is this Xu Pan's direct aunt.

Xu Pan was able to enter Shanhai Academy, but he was admitted by his own ability. Regardless of his character, he still has talent.

"Do you have a problem with this Xu Pan?" Lin Yao was not in Yangzhou for more than half a year, so she didn't know what happened during his absence, so Gu Zhen, who has such a good temper, was actually so angry Beat people directly, even disregarding school rules.

While speaking, Liang Cheng and the others also walked over the crowd.

"Xu Pan? It's you again? You haven't learned your lesson from what happened last time?" Liang Cheng stepped forward, frowning.

Obviously, Liang Cheng was also very displeased when he saw this Xu Pan.

Lin Yao became more and more curious about what happened during his absence.

"Ayao, please give me this... relatives go back home, and other things, we will talk about it when you come back." Gu Zhen said.

Lin Yao was a little speechless when she heard the words, her own sister, you don't want to give it yourself, you want me, a foreigner, to give it?

Before Lin Yao could refuse, Gu Zhen said again, "Please."

Gu Zhen didn't seem to be out of his mind. Lin Yao swallowed all the questions in his belly, "Okay," he looked at Gu Fulan whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Young master, I Let me take you back."

Gu Fulan looked up at him, then nodded with sobs, Lin Yao pushed aside the crowd and protected Gu Fulan from the crowd.

"What are you doing! This is the entrance of the academy, aren't you afraid of breaking the school rules?!"

Behind him, Xu Pan's panicked voice came.

Lin Yao didn't look back.

"I didn't hit you again, which school rule did I violate? Mr. Xu, we haven't seen each other for a while, let's go over and have a chat?" Gu Zhen spoke like a gangster.

Lin Yao led Gu Fulan away, away from the hustle and bustle behind her.

Lin Yao is very familiar with the road of Gu's house, he led Gu Fulan all the way towards Gu's house, when suddenly he felt his sleeve being pulled, he stopped, turned his head and saw Gu Fulan tugging at his sleeve.

Lin Yao looked at her, "Why are you pulling my clothes?"

"Brother Lin, when will sister Lin return to Yangzhou?"

Lin Yao didn't expect that Gu Fulan pulled him to ask Daiyu.

He was stunned for a while, then turned to ask, "Why don't you write a letter to ask Yu'er yourself?"

"I..." Gu Fulan lowered her head and remained silent.

Lin Yao looked at her, sighed and said, "The emperor made an order to choose a companion for the princess and princess, and Yu'er is very likely to be selected. You expect her to return to Yangzhou, I am afraid it will be difficult."

"Choose a companion to read?" Gu Fulan blinked, "I heard Dad mention that sister Lin also wants to be a backup?"

also?

Lin Yao looked at Gu Fulan, and instantly remembered that Gu Fulan was also considered the daughter of a famous official, that is to say, she was also on the candidate list.

Gu Zhen was the first friend he made when he came to this world. Naturally, he was different from others. Gu Fulan was so delicate and soft. He was afraid that he would be bullied when he entered the palace.

Although he was a little worried, Lin Yao's hands were not long enough to take care of other people's affairs, so he didn't say anything.

"It's getting late, I'll take you home."

Gu Fulan seemed to have something to say, but hearing what Lin Yao said, she had to keep her mouth shut.

She peeked at Lin Yao from time to time, hesitated to speak, and didn't say anything until she reached the door of Gu's house.

Send Gu Fulan home, and meet Mrs. Gu by the way.

Then, Lin Yao bid farewell and went back to the academy.

As soon as Lin Yao left, Mrs. Gu grabbed her daughter's ears, "You are getting more and more courageous, you dare to disguise yourself as a man and go to Shanhai Academy secretly, you are going to turn the world upside down?!"

Gu Fulan changed her soft appearance in front of Lin Yao, and held Madam Gu's hand that was pulling her ear, "Mother, mother, it hurts so much, let go, your ear is about to fall off!"

"Do you still dare to sneak out alone?" Mrs. Gu was unmoved.

Gu Fulan had tears in her eyes, "Don't dare."

Hearing this, Madam Gu let go of her hand, and said with a straight face, "Now tell me the truth, what are you doing at Shanhai Academy?"

"I just heard that my brother is taking a rest today and went to the academy to play with him." Gu Fulan rolled her eyes and said.

"Sophistry!" Mrs. Gu didn't believe it at all, "Your brother has three days off every month, and I didn't see you sneaking into the academy to find your brother one day, saying! What are you doing in the academy today?!"

Madam Gu's rare sternness frightened Gu Fulan. Gu Fulan tightly pursed her lips, squeezed her fingers, and said in a low voice, "The last time brother Xiumu came home, he said... Brother Lin is going back to Yangzhou..."

"When did you care about A Yao so much?" Mrs. Gu was very strange. Although Lin Yao often came to Gu's house, she stayed with Gu Zhen most of the time, and she didn't hear about Lin Yao from her daughter for several years. Suddenly, because Lin Yao came to Yangzhou, she ran out secretly. This really surprised Mrs. Gu.

Gu Fulan didn't say a word. In fact, she noticed Lin Yao the first time she saw him.

At that time, Lin Yao followed Jia Min to their house to attend the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet. It was the first time she saw Lin Yao. At that time, he thought that this brother was prettier than her brother, so he kept staring at him.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yao suddenly looked over and smiled at her. Gu Fulan was still young at the time, so she immediately shrank behind her mother and hid.

When she regained her senses, this beautiful brother was dragged away by her second brother.

Later, she did see Lin Yao rarely again, but she and Daiyu were good friends, and Daiyu often mentioned Lin Yao in front of her, always saying how good Lin Yao was to her, caring about everything and being considerate in every way.

After hearing a lot, and comparing her two careless brothers, Gu Fulan wanted a brother like Lin Yao more and more.

But unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai was promoted to the capital so soon, and Daiyu also left. Although Lin Yao stayed in Yangzhou, it was only to participate in the Tongsheng Examination. After the Tongsheng Examination, Lin Yao also left.

For a long time, Gu Fulan could only hear about Lin Yao from her second brother.

The Lin Yao in her brother's mouth is different from the one in Daiyu's mouth.

According to her brother, Lin Yao is a smart, kind, optimistic and considerate person, it is a blessing to be his friend.

So much so that Gu Fulan became more and more curious about Lin Yao. The last time she heard from her brother that Lin Yao was going back to Yangzhou to go to school, she had been paying attention. Her brother Xiu Mu had already gone home today, but he hurried out of the house. He heard that Lin Yao had returned to Yangzhou, and his brother had gone to wash Lin Yao off.

Gu Fulan didn't know what she was thinking at the time, and when she realized it, she had already changed into the clothes her brother didn't wear when she was a child, and sneaked out through the back door.

"Lan'er!"

Gu Fulan came back to her senses, "Huh?"

"When did you have such thoughts about A Yao?" Mrs. Gu seemed a little confused.

Gu Fulan didn't understand what her mother meant, "What do you mean?"

Madam Gu was taken aback by her reaction, "Oh, it's nothing."

It seemed that she might have misunderstood it. Mrs. Gu came to her senses and took a deep breath, "You are not allowed to sneak out again, you are still young, if you meet a kidnapper, you will have nowhere to cry."

Gu Fulan was really frightened when she sneaked out this time, she nodded repeatedly, "I see, Aunt."

"Okay, go back and wash up, look at your dirty face."

When Gu Fulan heard that her face was dirty, she hurried back to her yard to take a bath and change clothes.

After her daughter left, Mrs. Gu thought of Lin Yao.

As she got older, Lin Yao's eyebrows and eyes gradually opened, and she was a young man who had just matured. Last year, she passed the third grade examination. Everyone in Yangzhou said that Lin Yao would definitely be the top student in high school in the future.

Lin Yao is older than her daughter, two years older, but two years older is just right.

The more Mrs. Gu thinks about it, the more she feels that this is feasible. The Gu family and the Lin family have a lot of bonds, she and Jia Min, her husband and Lin Ruhai, A Zhen and A Yao, Dai Yu and Lan Er.

No matter from which point of view, the two of them are very compatible.

Mrs. Gu planned to wait for her husband to come back and mention it to him. It would be a good idea to settle it earlier.

Lin Yao, who was rushing to the academy, didn't know Madam Gu's idea of ​​wanting him to be her son-in-law, so he hurried back to the academy, but there was no one at the entrance of the academy, so Lin Yao went straight into the academy and found the dormitory.

Gu Zhen and the others are indeed in the dormitory.

"Ah Yao is back." Guo Xiao was the first to spot Lin Yao.

"Ayao, thank you for sending my sister back." Gu Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to thank her.

Lin Yao said angrily, "If there were not so many people at that time, I would have scolded you a long time ago. No matter how good my relationship with you is, after all, I am a foreigner. I will send your sister back and tell someone Got it, it's bad for your sister's reputation."

"I believe in your character. What's more," Gu Zhen smiled at him, "I don't think Ah Yao knows that you are the first son-in-law candidate of many official families in Yangzhou. Even if it is known that you are the one who sent my sister home, It's not a disadvantage at all, at worst, if you marry my sister, our family will still make money!"

Lin Yao rolled her eyes, "You are very good at settling accounts." He only thought that Gu Zhen was joking and didn't take it seriously, "That Xu Pan, what happened? Why did you beat him when you saw him?" If you said It was Xu Pan who bullied Gu Fulan, but under the circumstances at that time, Gu Zhen did not ask any questions and did it directly, obviously it was not because Xu Pan bullied his sister.

"This Xu Pan is... a broken sleeve!" Mentioning Xu Pan, Gu Zhen's face turned blue.

Broken sleeve?Lin Yao froze for a moment, and then remembered that Gu Fulan was wearing men's clothing at that time, girls of eight or nine years old were not divided into men and women, and it was indeed difficult to tell the gender in men's clothing, she was dressed in men's clothing, so she was naturally regarded as a boy.

In other words... Xu Pan has taken a fancy to Gu Fulan who is dressed in men's clothing.Lin Yao realized this and was speechless immediately.
