Chapter 119: Minister
Yu Bai turned to look at Ge Fu and couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Gofu was puzzled.
Yu Bai did not hide it and said directly: "In the past, we often said that you did not look like a doctor. At that time, everyone joked about it. Some called you Princess Swan, and some called you Princess Fairy. Some people also said that you did not look like a worker. At that time, they also said that you were not suitable for making money."
"Now I understand why you became a painter."
Ge Fu did not ask her how she knew that she became a painter. Anyway, there were many ways to know. She smiled and asked, "Are you surprised?"
"That's right." Yu Bai patted his chest and said, "At first I thought it was a rumor spread by the media. But after thinking about it carefully, I think it makes sense."
Facing the puzzlement in Ge Fu's eyes, she smiled and said, "Don't you remember? When we were in school, we spent our spare time studying hard, but you were not. You were like completing a task. After finishing, you read various art magazines, and often went to see stage plays and listen to symphony orchestra performances. You would not miss the opening of some museums and large exhibitions. At that time, we all thought you were young and playful, but now I think you probably like these things."
"Another time..." She stroked her chin and said, "One time, Tan Wei from our class came to borrow a pair of latex gloves from you. You were off campus at the time, so you asked her to look through your bag. She found a small oil painting of our school's wisteria. It was so beautiful that we were amazed. I wanted to ask you where you got it from, but then the professor gave me a surprise exam and I forgot about it."
Wisteria?
Ge Fu didn't remember, it was probably a small oil sketch he drew at the time and put it in his bag.
After going up to the second floor, Yu Bai said, "The inn here is a little different from the ones outside. The customers live with us, eat and drink together. The tribesmen wanted to make a special exception for you, but I didn't let them. You probably didn't want to reveal your identity, so it wouldn't be good to be too special."
Ge Fu nodded, "It's okay. I came here this time just to experience the authentic life in Northern Xinjiang. If I have to do something special, I might as well stay in Yaojing."
"I knew it." Yu Bai explained with a smile: "There are 26 branches in our Yu family, and I am from the sixth branch. The current patriarch happens to be my mother. She went out to discuss business with someone two days ago and is not at home. I have four sisters and two brothers. It's late today, so I will introduce them to you tomorrow."
"Since you are my guest, you will eat and live with our six rooms. The room I arranged for you is on the top floor. It has a good view and the best scenery. There is a terrace outside. My mother, my brother and my sister also live there. There are three rooms left on the top floor. You can arrange them as you like. There are empty rooms on the second, third and fourth floors below the top floor. You can look at the signs at the door. Brown signs mean that someone lives there, and white signs mean that no one lives there. You can check in as you like. When the time comes, just bring the white sign to me and exchange it for a brown one."
Ge Fu frowned slightly, "Can we check in tomorrow?" Everyone was exhausted at this moment. There were so many of them, and it would take at least half an hour to check in.
If other guests had made this request, Yu Bai would definitely not agree, but this was Ge Fu, so she nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, you guys have to leave early tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be new guests coming to pick rooms."
"How about this." After a pause, she called a few tribesmen and said, "You follow them with brown cards. When you see which room they choose, immediately change the brown cards for them."
She said to Ge Fu, "We will keep the white card first, and your people will come over tomorrow to check in. This will be more convenient."
"Okay." Ge Fu naturally had no problem with it.
Once they entered the room, they didn't have time to tidy up, so they simply changed into pajamas and went to bed.
It was not until noon the next day that Ge Fu woke up hungry.
She looked at the time and it was already ten o'clock. She didn't know whether You Niang and the others were still asleep or hadn't woken her up yet. She looked and saw that the suitcase was gone. She opened the closet and saw that everything was in place. She found her toiletries and clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Just as I came out of the bathroom, Lu Yao's voice came from outside the door accompanied by a knock.
"are you awake?"
"Wait, I'll come out after I change my clothes." Ge Fu said hurriedly.
When Ge Fu changed her clothes and came out, she found Lu Yao waiting at the door.
"Your hair is not dry?" Lu Yao frowned.
Ge Fu shook her head and said, "I won't blow dry my hair today. I'll go out after dinner." Fearing that he would nag her, she added, "I won't go out until my hair is dry."
Except for winter, she doesn't like to use a hair dryer in other seasons and prefers to let her hair dry naturally.
"Wait a minute." Lu Yao went into her room, picked up a towel and came out. "I'll dry your hair a little more."
Having lived in a hotel together in Dunhuang for a month, how could he not know her habits?
Lu Yao stopped only after his hair was half dry.
Ge Fu lived in one of the three rooms on the top floor, with Lu Yao and Dr. Zhou on either side of her. The others chose rooms on the fourth and third floors.
When we went downstairs, Gofu asked, "Have you had lunch?"
"No, I had some snacks, and drank milk tea and butter tea." After a pause, Lu Yao said, "But the milk tea and butter tea here are both salty. I don't know if you can get used to them."
"Are you used to drinking this?" Ge Fu asked him with his head tilted.
Lu Yao said: "I can eat anything, as long as I can fill my stomach."
"Ge Fu, you're here! Come over and sit down!" Yu Bai saw them before they reached the first floor and waved to them.
When Ge Fu looked over, he saw Yu Bai, You Rong and others sitting around a large, low coffee table, which was filled with various snacks and fruits.
"I've long said that I would invite you to try the butter tea from my hometown. Hurry up and sit down and try it." Yu Bai greeted her.
Only after Ge Fu sat down did he realize that there were many unfamiliar faces in the living room.
"These are my brothers and sisters, and my father." Yu Bai introduced them to her one by one.
While greeting everyone, Ge Fu couldn't help but look at the men who were not introduced.
Yu Bai coughed lightly and said, "This is the assistant minister of the family."
so much?
Ge Fu was shocked. Wait! ?
"Are you married?" Ge Fu turned and asked Yu Bai.
"I have a fiancé." After all, they had been classmates for several years, so Yu Bai could guess her thoughts. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "These assistant ministers may not be the ones we like. Many of them are sent here by small clans below to seek asylum. If we don't accept them, we are rejecting their support. There is no other way. It would be great if the husband could choose the one he likes."
Ge Fu twitched his lips and asked softly, "Does your fiancé mind these ministers?"
