"Why don't you give it to me yourself?" Gong Yueyue asked in surprise. A wonderful fragrance instantly floated into her heart and lungs. She couldn't help but admire: "It smells so good! What is it?"
Fu Yun was a little embarrassed and said to her in a voice as loud as a mosquito: "You can... open it and take a look."
She opened the wooden box carefully, and the elegant fragrance immediately hit her face: "Is this ink? It's so beautiful...did you make it specially for him?" The long strip of rare ink placed in the box was carved with green bamboo. and two elegant regular script characters "Zhuqing".
Fu Yun lowered his head and admitted: "Yeah." Gong Yueyue didn't know that Fu Yun had prepared this gift seven years ago, but he just didn't have the chance to give it out.
She didn't expect that Gong Yueyue covered the wooden box and handed it back to her: "I can't help you, you should hand it to him yourself."
Her face turned red: "I can't..." She felt that the last time she was in front of Pan Zhuqing, she said a lot of bad things about Gong Yueyue indiscriminately, and he seemed to be dissatisfied with her.
Seeing her hopeless look, Gong Yueyue felt helpless and asked lightly: "If you can't see his expression when he received it, what is the meaning of this gift?"
She was a little tempted, but still didn't have much confidence: "Will he like it?"
Yueyue stretched and said, "I don't know, so I have to ask him yourself."
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Yueyue murmured in her heart, no matter what type of woman this ancient woman was, as long as she fell in love, she would act coy and it was boring. This Fu Yun obviously liked Pan Zhuqing to death, but she even gave him a share. I don’t even have the guts to give her a birthday gift. If she were to be given a birthday gift in the 1st century, when would she be able to marry herself off? This is simply the rhythm of the 4K Pure Gold Leftover Fighter! Finally, after thinking about it, he still encouraged her seriously: "Fu Yun, women have it too. Pursue men's rights and happiness must be achieved by yourself, there is nothing to be ashamed of. Put down your pride once in a while, and you may get more things."
Fu Yun was drumming with anxiety and was indecisive. When he heard her say this, he blurted out without having time to think: "But what he likes is..." He almost said the word "you", but luckily The rationality in her mind is quite sufficient.
Gong Yueyue was shocked. Looking at her expression and tone, she clearly knew what Pan Zhuqing was thinking. How did she know? She subconsciously rolled her eyes and glanced at Pan Zhuqing, who was having a grand chat with friends in the DPRK. Anyway. , she, Gong Yueyue, is now living in an ancient feudal society, and she is a married woman. Being worried about such a harmful and useless thing by other men, it is better to resolutely avoid it. She secretly decided that from tomorrow on, no matter what You are not allowed to see this man again in public or in private, unless you are with a pretty boy.
Gong Yueyue was good at disguising her expression. Fu Yun didn't notice anything unusual on her face. He just thought that she didn't understand the meaning of his words. He was secretly glad that he had stopped talking and didn't cause any trouble. "Then I... Gone?" Fu Yun took two steps hesitantly.
Gong Yueyue gave her a push as encouragement: "Go ahead."
The distance of more than ten steps was turned into the Great Wall by Miss Fu Yun. The elegant and stern man in my heart was right in front of me. He was chatting and laughing with others, his breath was warm, and his demeanor was lively, but for some reason, he looked like a man from the stars from beginning to end. Generally out of reach.
After finally walking up to her, Pan Zhuqing noticed her and asked her first: "Yun'er, is something wrong?"
She felt that the unfamiliar faces on the table next to her were looking at her curiously. Although she didn't know what they were thinking. But she guessed that if she gave her heart, they would think that she was trying to reach high, and that the toad wanted to eat the swan. Meat.
Pan Zhuqing was still waiting for her to speak in confusion. She glanced back uneasily in the direction of Gong Yueyue, who was also looking at her and gave her an encouraging expression. She felt relieved, reached into her armhole, and touched the Arriving at the warm wooden box: "Brother Zhuqing...I...this..."
Before she could finish what she was saying, a pretty maid appeared out of nowhere and said to Pan Zhuqing before her: "Young Master, it's getting late. Should we start the banquet?"
Fu Yun didn't know who this maid was, but Gong Yueyue, who was sitting at the female guest seat and watching from a distance, saw it clearly. She couldn't help but lower her head and touch her forehead and sighed: "Fu Yun... Yulian... Marshal Pan, you are so busy, why are you so prepared?" manage……"
Fu Yun was interrupted midway and was stuck in embarrassment, not knowing what to do. As proud as she was, she really didn't know how to face such an unexpected situation. The maid had no intention of leaving, and neither Pan Zhuqing nor Fu Yun had time. Immediately after reacting, he decisively added: "Young Master, if you don't open the table, it will be rude."
Pan Zhuqing nodded and said to Fu Yun: "You can take a seat first. I will find time to find you at your table later."
It was still the same distance of more than ten steps, but it was longer and more difficult than when we came here. Fu Yun felt that there were hundreds of pairs of eyes behind her looking at her and laughing at herself. She didn't even have the chance to finish a complete sentence. She began to despise herself, A little maid could easily draw his attention away from her. "Who am I? How could I possibly be worthy of him? Stop thinking about it, Fu Yun!" She thought like this before walking to her own bed. tableside.
"Give it to you." She threw the wooden box in front of Du Ruotong.
Du Ruotong was confused: "Ah? Send it to me?"
Gong Yueyue, who was watching coldly from the side, shook her head, grabbed the wooden box, stood up and left.
"Yueyue!" Fu Yun called her from behind anxiously, but he couldn't stop her.
At this time, Pan Zhuqing had already walked to the front of the hall, ready to say a few auspicious words to thank the guests and announce the opening of the banquet. Gong Yueyue didn't stop, walked up and called him: "Brother Pan!"
"What's wrong?" Pan Zhuqing naturally wouldn't neglect her. But Yu Lian, who was a little proud just now in the audience, turned as cold as iron.
Overhearing the conversation between Fu Yun and Gong Yueyue standing in the corner, Yulian felt very unhappy. She liked Pan Zhuqing very much. Although her family was not rich, her parents loved her, and her brothers and sisters-in-law also treated her like a pearl. Bao, her life is not bad. The reason why she stayed in the Pan Mansion as a servant was entirely because of him, Pan Zhuqing. If he could really find a good match one day, she, Yulian, would be willing to leave. But how could it be Fu Yun? After such a sinner? If she is taken over by such a person, then she Yulian would rather fight on her own. Just like that Gong Yueyue said, women also have the right to pursue men, and they also have the right to strive for happiness! But she has the right to pursue men and strive for happiness! What is Gong Yueyue messing around with now?
"Can I take you a little time?" Yueyue asked Pan Zhuqing softly.
He took her aside and asked curiously: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
She took out the wooden box from behind and handed it to him: "This is a gift from Yuner to you. She made it with her own hands."
He opened the wooden box and revealed a faint smile from the bottom of his mouth. It seemed that this gift suited him very well: "Why didn't she give it to me herself?" Suddenly he remembered that Fu Yun had indeed come to see him just now, maybe it was him. Coming here for this matter, I actually felt a little guilty for neglecting the sincerity of others: "Thank her for me."
Gong Yueyue waved her hand: "Hey, don't be like this. It's useless for me to be a courier for her. Don't let me be a carrier pigeon again. If you want to thank her, go and say it in person." Pan Zhuqing, Fu Yun, Yulian... Thinking about it makes her feel a little headache, plus he has an inexplicable liking for her... She is only participating in this last time today. She is not interested in being a matchmaker. She just feels that Fu Yun's rare kindness should not be wasted in vain. Tomorrow From the beginning, it will have nothing to do with her.
He put away the wooden box and said honestly: "I can do it."
The look on Yu Lian's face just now in the audience had already been noticed by Gong Yueyue. This matter had nothing to do with her in the first place, and she didn't want to be partial to anyone, but she still couldn't help but gossip, and turned Du Ruotong's His ears came over and asked her in a very soft voice: "Ruotong, I want to ask you out of curiosity."
"Huh? Just ask." Du Ruotong muttered while eating chicken legs.
Gong Yueyue was also hungry. While peeling the shrimp, she leaned into her ear and asked: "Yulian...isn't she the maid in your room? How come you have the opportunity to serve Pan Zhuqing today?"
As soon as Du Ruotong heard this question, he also showed a very bitchy smile and whispered to her: "She begged me to come, and I saw that she was obsessed with the eldest brother, so I agreed, but it's a pity that it's only today. Brother Pan. He is very weird, and he usually doesn't let people get close to him, but you don't know that."
"Oh~ I guessed that." The two of them were beaming and chattering. Several young women at the same table could not bear their temper and started chatting away while eating.
It started as a common chat among the women. Gong Yueyue, Du Ruotong and Fu Yun were not familiar with them, so they couldn't get a word in, so they kept their heads down and ate, occasionally saying a few words to each other that were neither salty nor light.
Suddenly, sitting opposite Gong Yueyue, the wife of Mr. Jin, a member of Zhongshushe, said something that made everyone at the table prick up their ears: "Hey, do you think Mr. Pan doesn't plan to renew his string? He is already twenty. He's five, he's really quite old."
Master Jin's wife is a biological sister to Wei Tingyue's eldest wife. Dongdu Xia's murder of officials made the Pan family and Wei family actually become enemies. And it is only human nature that the Jin family prefers the Wei family. It's just that Pan Zhuqing has now been promoted to Yushi Zhongcheng. In modern terms, this official position can be called the Independent Commission Against Corruption, which specializes in investigating and punishing corrupt officials. Therefore, no matter how discordant he is with the Pan family, he has to put his tail between his legs and behave first. Even if Pan Zhuqing didn't eat the congratulatory gift, he had to bring his family to pay a visit in order not to lose his courtesy to the new official.
Sitting on her left was the wife of the secretary, Mr. Wang. Hearing Mrs. Jin's words, she became more energetic: "That's right, look at Mr. Zhao, he is so young and has a child."
Gong Yueyue remained silent. These housewives would love to compete with each other if they had no problem. She didn't want to be acquainted with them.
Seeing that the interest of everyone at the table had been aroused, Mrs. Jin pretended to be mysterious and pursed her lips into a smile. Then she used an expression common to all the eight wives in the world and pretended to lower her voice. In fact, her voice was not low at all:
"But I heard that he also had the intention of renewing the relationship, but the other party did not agree." (To be continued)
