After pointing the way, A Bao looked at his young master again, thought for a moment and then said, "How about you wait a moment? I'll go to the yard and call a maid to take you there."
Luo Shuiyao looked at the time and saw that it was indeed late. She was worried that she would take the wrong road again and miss the time. After thinking about it, she nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, little brother."
A Bao smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No trouble, no trouble. Please follow us a few steps forward."
Seeing Luo Shuiyao nod slightly, A Bao turned to look at the man who had been silent all the time and said softly: "Master, let's go home."
The man looked up at him, but did not answer. He turned and walked straight forward.
A Bao's expression did not change. After seeing the male protagonist take a step forward, he turned around and smiled at Luo Shuiyao. Luo Shuiyao understood what he meant and followed him.
The three of them didn't walk far before arriving at the main courtyard. Luo Shuiyao stood at the gate and looked around carefully. The courtyard seemed extremely quiet. Looking in from the gate, the layout of the courtyard looked very simple, but if you look closely, you will find that every plant, flower and object in the courtyard is extremely precious.
Luo Shuiyao turned her gaze towards the man who had already walked into the yard, and remembered what Nanny Zhang had said about the young master of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion being a mute. Then she looked at the man in front of her, and couldn't help but have some guesses in her mind.
Ah Bao followed his master into the yard. He saw the maid cleaning and called out, "Xiao Juan, come here."
Xiaojuan looked up when she heard the voice, put down the bucket, and trotted forward. She bowed to the man and said, "This servant greets the young master."
The man still lowered his eyes, holding the kitten in his arms without any reaction, as if he didn't see her.
Xiaojuan was obviously used to it. She stood up, bowed to Abao again and asked, "Brother Abao, do you have any instructions?"
"Put aside what you are doing for now and take this girl to the main hall in front." A Bao said, pointing sideways to Luo Shuiyao at the gate of the courtyard behind him.
The maid named Xiaojuan looked in the direction of Abao's finger and saw a stunning woman standing outside the door with a smile on her face. A flash of surprise flashed in her eyes. After hearing what Abao said, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go now."
A Bao nodded, turned around and walked a few steps towards the door, then introduced Luo Shuiyao, "This is Xiaojuan, the maid in our courtyard. She will take you back to the main hall."
Luo Shuiyao smiled gently and said softly, "Thank you."
A Bao quickly bowed and responded, "Miss, you don't need to thank me. Please come in."
Xiaojuan walked forward, stepped aside to lead the way, and said softly, "Miss, this way."
Luo Shuiyao glanced at the man in the yard again and was about to follow Xiaojuan when suddenly a familiar hoarse voice came from behind her: "Wait."
She subconsciously stopped and turned to look at the man. He slowly turned around and looked straight at her.
A Bao was also surprised, his eyes widened, and he blurted out in disbelief: "Master, did you just speak?"
His young master was a quiet man, rarely even talking to anyone. A Bao had initially assumed that the young master's willingness to meet this young lady was a fluke, but he hadn't expected him to actually speak. It had been ages since his young master had spoken.
Perhaps it was because Abao's expression and words were too exaggerated, causing the man to frown unhappily and glance at him.
A Bao's heart tightened and he quickly suppressed the expression on his face, but if you looked closely, you could still see surprise and joy on his face.
After Luo Shuiyao heard him speak, she saw that he was silent for a long time. She was puzzled. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Did you... call me just now?"
The man remained silent, but just walked towards Luo Shuiyao silently.
Seeing this, Luo Shuiyao was puzzled, but still subconsciously took a few steps forward.
The man finally stopped when he was only one step away from Luo Shuiyao. Suddenly, he held the kitten firmly in one hand and stretched out his other hand in front of Luo Shuiyao. Then, he turned his wrist slightly, and in his palm, he was holding the small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet.
Luo Shuiyao's eyes fell on the bracelet, then she looked up at him. She had a guess in her mind, but she was afraid that she might have misunderstood, so she asked softly, "What are you doing...?"
"This... is for you." The man's hoarse voice sounded again, and he raised the bracelet a little closer to Luo Shuiyao.
Luo Shuiyao looked at him in surprise, but quickly reacted, took a step back and refused, "This bracelet is extremely precious. We only met once, how can you give it to me?"
Unexpectedly, the man didn't want to reply at all, nor did he listen to her answer. Instead, he took a step forward, raised the bracelet closer, and said, "Here you go."
This time when he spoke, his voice was not as hoarse and unclear as before. Instead, it was as if he was used to speaking, and his pronunciation was extremely clear.
Luo Shuiyao wanted to refuse again, but before she could say anything, A Bao beside her could no longer hold back and hurriedly stepped forward, smiling and persuading her, "Miss, we still have a lot of these things in our house. They are not very precious, but they are a token of my young master's love. Why don't you accept them?"
A Bao was really afraid that his young master would displease the young lady, so he hurried forward to smooth things over for his young master.
The young master's sudden enlightenment was rare, and Abao saw it with joy. If this could be accomplished, his wife would probably be able to hold a grandson, which was something she had always dreamed of. He secretly resolved that he must not mess it up. Besides, the young master deserved someone who would understand his feelings and accompany him.
"No, I still feel..."
Luo Shuiyao was halfway through her refusal when A Bao interrupted her again. "Miss, I'm sure you've noticed that my young master is extremely stubborn. If you don't accept, he..."
Having said this, A Bao looked embarrassed and cast his eyes on the man. Seeing that he was still stubbornly holding the bracelet in his hand and unwilling to put it down, he looked at Luo Shuiyao with a pleading look.
Seeing this, Luo Shuiyao sighed softly. She could see Ah Bao's distress and sympathized with his difficulties. After a moment's reflection, she concluded that the wood used for the bracelet was nothing compared to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. It was fine to accept it and return the gift when she returned. After considering this for a while, she finally nodded and said softly, "Thank you very much."
The man's palm was facing upwards, his eyes fixed on Luo Shuiyao. When he saw her accept the bracelet, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, barely perceptible, and then he put his hand down.
This subtle movement was seen by A Bao, who was watching him closely. A Bao was so delighted that he almost burst into a smile. He suddenly called out, "Xiao Juan, take the young master back to rest. I will lead this young lady on her way."
