Chapter 47: Puzzles

She thought about it for a few times and then added in surprise: "Sister Xinyu, is this Pei Yuniang who is proficient in various calligraphy styles?"

"Have you heard of her?"

Zhen Xinyu was slightly surprised. Although Yu Niang had some reputation in the capital, Gu Jinshu had only been here not long ago, so why did she look so fascinated?

"When I was in Qinzhou, I heard that there was a young lady in Duke Pei's palace. She was very smart and good at all kinds of calligraphy since she was a child. I have admired her for a long time, but I can't see her. It is really a pity."

Her words were full of admiration and desire for Pei Yuniang. The tangled little emotions made Zhen Xinyu smile in her eyes. Ye Qingdai on the side also smiled and said to her: "Since you admire me so much, why don't you ask your sister Xinyu to take you away?"

The last time?"

"Sister Xinyu, is it okay?"

Gu Jinshu looked at Zhen Xinyu with bright eyes. Her sincere eyes full of trust made Zhen Xinyu unable to refuse, so she could only laugh and scold Ye Qingdai: "You will find trouble for me."

"Who made the Pei family Yuniang so famous? And you have a close personal relationship with her?"

Everyone in the capital was aware of Pei Jiayu's talent, but she was not good at making friends, so she didn't have many friends except Zhen Xinyu.

If my little cousin wants to get to know Pei Yuniang, Zhen Xinyu in front of her is undoubtedly the best way.

"I'm really afraid of you." Zhen Xinyu scolded her with a smile, then turned to look at Gu Jinshu, "If you want to meet me, sister, how about I take you to Duke Pei's mansion?"

Although Zhen Xinyu looks gentle, she is not an easy person to get close to. Ye Qingdai spent a lot of time getting to know her at that time, but she felt more kind to the little girl in front of her, otherwise she would not have agreed to take her to Pei Guogong.

Mansion.

"Thank you, sister Xinyu."

Gu Jinshu said this sentence quite sincerely, and the curved look on her eyebrows made people feel relaxed.

Gu Jinshu went to the old lady and chatted for a few words before she and Zhen Xinyu left the Ye Mansion. Ye Qingdai personally escorted the two of them away. She did not turn around and walked inside until the carriage disappeared without a trace.

The little maid on the side asked suspiciously: "Girl, this time you finally have the opportunity to get closer to Miss Pei, why do you give up?"

Compared to Miss Zhen, Miss Pei may not look very noble, but she is the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family after all. Being close to her can be said to be beneficial to the girl without any harm.

Miss Zhen had just promised to take her there with her. Why should she give up such a good opportunity?

"You see, the problem is a bit shallow after all." She hummed as she walked, "Although I am the only daughter of the Ye family, I am not the legitimate daughter after all. It is not polite to run outside when my mother is bedridden.

"

"My dear girl..."

The little maid scratched her head and felt confused. The girl couldn't leave, so why didn't her cousin have to worry about it?

"As the niece of the Ye family, she naturally doesn't need to look at anyone's face to act. Besides, her surname is Gu after all, and the rules of the Ye family have no control over her."

If the bedridden person was her grandmother, she might have to attend to her illness in front of the bed, but that person was her aunt's mother, so the relationship was naturally far away. Moreover, even if she went to attend to her illness due to etiquette, her aunt's mother would not dare to do so.

accept.

At this time, Gu Jinshu didn't know that she had become someone else's talking point. She was still thinking about how to deal with Pei Yuniang and what was going to happen next, and was also responding to Zhen Xinyu's questions with satisfaction.

"I think you, Qinzhou, are full of outstanding people. Otherwise, how could you have given birth to a girl like my sister?"

The more Zhen Xinyu looked at her, the more she felt that the well-behaved little girl in front of her was particularly lovable. Sitting there quietly became a sight to behold. It was no wonder that she admired Yu Niang. The two people did have some similarities.

Especially during this quiet time.

"My sister's words made my sister so embarrassed." Gu Jinshu muttered in a low voice, while Zhen Xinyu smiled and shook her head, "You and your brother are really different at all."

Gu Jinhe is a domineering little devil who wants to scheme against everyone, but Gu Jinshu in front of him is like a jade doll, which makes people feel protective.

If Gu Jinshu knew what Zhen Xinyu was thinking at this time, her heart would be like being struck by thunder, and her whole person would be in a dazed state.

"Jin and him..."

Originally, Gu Jinshu wanted to find out from Zhen Xinyu about Gu Jinhe's life in the capital in the past few years, but she stopped thinking when she saw her unwillingness to say anything. Sooner or later, she would tell her.

Because Zhen Xinyu was with him, the journey into Duke Pei's mansion was smooth until he arrived at the courtyard where Pei Yuniang lived. When he saw the personal maid accompanying Pei Yuniang, the woman who led the way respectfully stepped back.

"What's happened to your girl recently?"

"My girl is upset right now? You can give her some advice."

The relationship between Zhen Xinyu and Pei Yuniang has always been very good, so the maid did not hide anything from her. As for the deeper things, she did not dare to say anything, for fear that the walls would have ears and people would overhear.

"Sister Xinyu, why did you come to see me..."

Pei Yuniang came out in a hurry, originally wanting to greet Zhen Xinyu, but before she could say anything, she saw Gu Jinshu standing next to Zhen Xinyu, and she swallowed the words she was about to say.

"This is..."

Even though her heart was turbulent, she still seemed calm on the surface. If there weren't too many eyes and ears here, she would have wanted to hold her hand and ask about Xie Shisan's situation.

"This is Gu Jinshu, a girl from Qinzhou. She admires you very much, so I brought her here."

Zhen Xinyu wanted to add to her introduction that she was the niece of the right minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, but she was worried that the little girl in front of her would have her self-esteem damaged.

"I didn't expect that I'm quite famous! I actually let this little sister talk about it like this."

"Isn't that true? I'm about to get pink eye. How many little girls have come to you through me these years? Your reputation as a talented girl is truly gold-lettered."

"Come on, I can't talk about your mouth. Let's go in and talk in detail."

Pei Yuniang winked at Zhen Xinyu and called people in. She just took a deep look at the maid who was accompanying her when she closed the door. The maid suddenly realized something and stood at the door, then obediently blocked the three of them in the back room.

"The hairpin on my sister's head is really unique."

After chatting with Zhen Xinyu for a while, Pei Yuniang couldn't hide her inner urgency and wanted to ask about the whereabouts of her hairpin, so she said something to Gu Jinshu.

Because of her words, Zhen Xinyu looked at the jade hairpin in Gu Jinshu's bun. It was a very simple and common jade, and the color and pattern were not the most popular nowadays. How could it be so unique?
