Mo Lingyuan hugged Chu Yunyao for a long time before the feeling of emptiness in his heart slowly disappeared. The empty heart seemed to be filled with something again, and he felt a sense of joy of finding it again.
He didn't have time to ask her what happened, he couldn't wait to pick her up horizontally, put her on the horse, got on the horse, and rushed to the mansion.
The people behind got on their horses one after another and followed Mo Lingyuan away.
Seeing Bao'er standing alone, Duan Changyu led his horse to her side: "Miss Bao'er, let me take you home."
Bao'er had no choice but to step on the stirrup, and climbed up with both hands and feet, grabbing the mane on the horse's back.
Duan Changyu took the rein, walked up to Zuo Qiandai's horse, turned over, and the two rode on the horse, side by side, and the horse walked forward at a moderate speed...
…
After entering the mansion, Mo Lingyuan carried Chu Yunyao into the Star Chu Building, looked her up and down, and asked softly, "Where is it hurt?"
Chu Yunyao shook her head.
Seeing that she was indeed safe and sound, but her bun was a little messy, and her body was stained with dirty dirt.
Mo Lingyuan opened the cabinet and looked for clothes for her: "After you left today, I asked the housekeeper to bring over the clothes you packed. You go to the ear room to freshen up."
Chu Yunyao went into the ear room with a change of clothes.
Mo Lingyuan stood by the window, looking at the dark night sky outside, went to the shower room, took off his clothes, scooped up cold water with a ladle, and poured it over his head continuously.
Seeing the two people coming back, the butler quickly brought some food from the back kitchen. As soon as he entered, he heard the sound of water splashing in the shower room.
The butler put the food on the table, stretched his head to look through the half-closed door, and saw Mo Lingyuan was wearing only a pair of white trousers, with his upper body naked, pouring cold water over his head.
The butler looked terrified.
Master is hotheaded, or thinks that the freezing weather is not cold enough, why should he take a cold shower?
It's not that there is no hot spring pool in the backyard. Isn't it more comfortable to soak in it than to take a cold bath?
The butler was hesitating whether to stop Mo Lingyuan's behavior, when he saw Mo Lingyuan immerse his whole head in the cold bucket of water.
housekeeper:"......"
The housekeeper finally couldn't bear it anymore, rushed in and desperately pulled Mo Lingyuan up from the cold water.
Pulling the towel hanging on the shelf to wipe off the water drops on his face, his eyes were red: "Master, what's wrong with you? The Lantern Festival has just passed, and it's the time when the spring is cold. Are you going to freeze yourself to death?" ?
Is there anything you can't think about? "
Mo Lingyuan's tall body was like a wooden stake, standing straight on the spot, holding the dry cotton cloth in the butler's hand, and closing his eyes: "Butler Su, since when have you been by my mother's side?"
"I have been with Madam since I was a child." The butler smiled, as if recalling the happy days in the past, "The old slave is a child of the Su family, and was raised by the Su family since he was a child. He watched Madam grow up and get married. , who bear children..."
"Then you must also know that the real reason why my mother died in depression was not because the father wanted to take a concubine, right?"
housekeeper:"......"
The corner of the butler's lips trembled, and he didn't dare to say anything.
Mo Lingyuan turned sideways suddenly, stared at the steward's dodging eyes for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked, "Why have you never mentioned this to me?
The Lin family was brutally destroyed, not collaborating with the enemy.
It is also the handiwork of the father, right? "
The butler hangs his head, stuttering, not knowing what to explain: "Master, old slave, old slave..."
