Su Taishou likes Xie Lin very much and thinks that he and Zhou Gu are both good boys. At least he didn't stare at any of his unmarried Yunying daughters sitting there. At most, he looked at them all at first.
One glance showed that he was not a lecherous one. After all, all of his daughters were as beautiful as flowers. Although Su Rong was the most outstanding in appearance, the other daughters were not much different.
Although Xie Lin doesn't drink much, his eyes are always clear, which is very commendable.
I don’t know why he and Zhou Gu got into a fight over a woman, and the fight was so sensational.
Adhering to his love for young talents, Su Taishou said to Xie Lin after dinner, "Why don't you live in the mansion with my nephew? Don't go back to the inn. Although the place in our mansion is not big, you can still squeeze in a little.
Where you live."
The eldest lady also liked Xie Lin very much, "That's right, stay here! We still have a place for you to live in our house."
Xie Lin didn't want to leave after hearing this, but was it appropriate to just stay like this? He looked at Zhou Gu and said, "Shall I stay?"
Zhou Gu felt that after Xie Lin came, he was about to fall out of favor in front of Prefect Su and Madam Su, "You can live here if you like."
Xie Lin made a decision decisively, "Thank you very much to my uncle and aunt, I will live in you without any courtesy." After saying that, he quickly said: "You don't have to arrange a yard for me, I will just live in the same yard as Zhou Gu."
.”
The eldest lady smiled, "It doesn't have to be so crowded."
Zhou Gu had no objection, "Okay, Auntie, there's no need to make any arrangements. Just let him live in the same courtyard as me."
After hearing this, the eldest lady gave up and nodded with a smile, "That's okay."
So, after dinner, Su Xingze sent Xie Lin to the guest house where Zhou Gu lived. Xie Lin took two steps and didn't see Zhou Gu following him, so he couldn't help but ask Su Xingze, "Brother Su, why doesn't Brother Zhou come with us?"
?”
"He and my sister have something to say." Su Xingze said, "I'll send Brother Xie to rest first."
Xie Lin nodded, thinking, is Zhou Gu so clingy? Does he still talk to his fiancée after dinner so late at night? This is really an eye-opener.
Zhou Gu was used to walking with Su Rong after dinner, so he didn't think it was anything.
Su Rong then found the opportunity to ask Zhou Gu, "Do you have a good relationship with Xie Lin?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "Who has a good relationship with him?"
Su Rong was stunned, "You guys seem to have a good relationship. If this doesn't mean you have a good relationship, then what does it mean to have a good relationship?"
Zhou Gu opened his mouth. He thought that Xiao Jiujiu, who was digging a hole for Xie Lin, couldn't tell Su Rong, otherwise he would look bad. He touched his nose and found a reason, "Well, we didn't have a good relationship before.
We don't like each other and we don't want to play with each other. Now isn't it because I stole someone from him that day and took his favorite Qin Luan away? It can be regarded as spoiling his good deeds and I feel a little sorry for him. "
Su Rong suddenly realized, "So that's the case, no wonder."
Su Rong really believed it. After all, the reason was impeccable. Zhou Gu had already told her that he was entrusted with robbing someone and regretted it afterwards. But Xie Lin couldn't robbing him, so he could only admit that he was unlucky.
Since Zhou Gu regretted it and felt that he had done something wrong, it would not be surprising to make compensation to the victim.
Seeing that she believed it, Zhou Gu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject, "Well, I took Xie Lin to Zuihua Building today. You have a lot of face. They even gave me face. When I left,
I originally wanted to keep the money, but Yu Niang was not there, so someone sent me a message, telling me to just leave."
Su Rong blinked, smiled and nodded, deliberately misinterpreting his meaning, "Congratulations, brother Zhou finally learned to go there to have fun by himself."
Zhou Gu blushed and stared at her, "What are you talking about?"
He coughed and turned his face unnaturally, "I just thought it wouldn't be a mess there, so I took Xie Lin to have a long experience. After all, he hasn't been there either. By the way, I'll trick him and see what's going on with him."
When he came to Jiangning, I didn’t expect that he really came to Jiangning to play around because he was bored."
Naturally, he didn't mention that Xie Lin came after Duan Hua to watch the fun, and he didn't even want to mention Duan Hua's name.
Su Rong nodded, "No one came to Jiangning before, but this year there are indeed many distinguished guests, one after another."
Zhou Gu turned around when he heard this, "Besides Ning Chi and Xie Lin, who else is there?"
Su Rong wanted to say that there is still a prince, but when the words came to his lips, he smiled and said: "There is also you, is that not enough? Anyway, I don't know, there should be some people. I always feel that this year is more lively than in previous years. Every day
There should be more people coming and going."
Zhou Gudao: "This is a good thing. Your father's political achievements should be known to more people and should be moved to another place. I have been in contact with my uncle these days and feel that the court needs people like my uncle. He can make a big difference."
, it’s a pity that I have been staying in Jiangning.”
Su Rong smiled, "Yes."
Anyway, she has grown up, and her father and Uncle Xie have protected her for so many years, which is enough.
The two of them walked for a while and then sat in the pavilion of the waterside pavilion. Zhou Gu told Su Rong what he had been thinking about, "I asked Zhou Xi to calculate the price of the clothes you gave me today and return them to you."
you."
Su Rong reached for the tea cup and paused, "What do you mean?"
Zhou Gu looked at her and said, "It's too much and too expensive. I can't have it."
Su Rong understood and said seriously: "I said I gave it to you, so I gave it to you. Since I gave it to you, there is no reason for you to give it back to me. If I ask you to give me the money, wouldn't I be successful?
Sell you something? After all, I have shares in Jinxiufang."
"I have never taken anything from others, let alone something so valuable." Zhou Gu said.
Su Ronxiao, "Well, can the fiancée be someone else?"
Zhou Gu choked and wanted to say that his fiancée was indeed someone else, but our engagement was still just a paper engagement. But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say them out.
Su Rong poured two cups of tea, pushed one to Zhou Gu, and said slowly: "Brother Zhou, don't be burdened. It's really nothing. I want to give it to you, just keep it."
Zhou Gu opened his mouth and wanted to say that you gave me such an expensive thing, what should I give you in return? As Xie Lin said, his private money was far worse than the clothes she gave her.
Looking at his expression, Su Rong knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Gold and silver have a price, clothes have a price, and thoughts are priceless, aren't they?"
Zhou Gu's heart suddenly jumped, the tips of his ears were a little red, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should say "yes" or not.
"Let's drink tea!" Su Rong picked up the teacup herself.
Zhou Gu also picked up the tea cup and felt that today's tea seemed to be hotter than usual. He brought it to his mouth, put it down again, and suddenly said: "Then you have a lot of private money?"
"Yeah, quite a bit."
Zhou Gu looked at her and wondered, "Since you obviously have a lot of private money, why do you secretly steal your elder brother's fifty taels of silver? How can you bear it?"
Su Rong: "..."
She coughed and said, "He is my eldest brother!"
Zhou Gu was puzzled, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Su Rong said confidently, "What does the eldest brother do? He was born to be exploited by his younger sister. Otherwise, if the younger sister does not exploit him, he will be exploited by other women in the future."
Zhou Gu: "..."
This does make sense. As his eldest brother, Su Xingze was also very unlucky.
He was speechless for a moment. He looked around and saw that no one was near the waterside pavilion. He asked, "Then have you given Brother Su anything good?"
"Roast chestnuts with sugar, roast goose, roast duck, roast fish, I'll give them all." Su Rong counted a lot of food on her fingers.
Zhou Gu: "..."
He emphasized, "I said expensive."
"Isn't the fish I caught and grilled with my own hands valuable?" Su Rong looked at him, "The other ones I also carried back home with my own hands, aren't they valuable?"
Zhou Gu naturally couldn't say anything worthless, and was speechless for a while.
Su Rong Dale, "I understand what you mean, no."
Zhou Gu didn't know whether he should be happy for himself or feel aggrieved for Su Xingze, but his mood at this time was extremely complicated.
The two drank tea for a while and then went back to their respective courtyards.
Zhou Gu returned to the guest house. Xie Lin didn't sleep. He was sitting in the painting hall drinking tea and waiting for him. When he saw Zhou Gu coming back, he asked him, "Why did you come back so late?"
Zhou Gu glanced at him, sat down, poured a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "I went for a walk with my fiancée."
Xie Lin: "..."
We took a walk for an hour in the evening? What happened to the Su family? They haven't gotten married yet, so why don't they pay attention to the safety of men and women? Are you so relieved to let the two of them stay together at night? He thought Su Xing
If you have something to say, it only takes a cup of tea. Who knows it will only take an hour.
He was shocked, "Does the Su family not care?"
Zhou Gu paused while drinking tea, "What does it matter? We are just walking along the waterside pavilion in the mansion. There are people everywhere in the mansion. Even in the middle of the night, there are lights everywhere, so there is no dark place.
What’s wrong with staying together?”
They didn't do anything inappropriate for children. Su Rong asked him to hug her that day, but he didn't even dare to hug her.
