"Hey, everyone has gone far away, what else are you looking at?" Gu Yongnian came to his senses first: "I have done what I promised you, don't break your promise! When you get back, you can bring Huang Ying to me..."
"I'll give you the oriole, and I'll give you the thrush I raised." Xie Peng's eyes shone, and his tone was inexplicably excited.
Gu Yongnian was startled, then smiled and said: "You said this yourself, you have to keep your word."
Xie Peng exhaled heavily, with a very flattering smile on his face: "Of course it counts. If there is anything else you like about me, just open your mouth."
...Gu Yongnian finally realized that something was wrong, and cast a sidelong glance at Xie Peng, who was inexplicably excited: "You didn't take the wrong medicine, did you?"
Xie Peng was not in the mood to care about the ridicule, and asked with a smile: "How old is your cousin this year? Is she from a good family?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Yongnian didn't understand. He immediately laughed ambiguously and patted Xie Peng's shoulder hard: "You must have fallen in love with my cousin!"
Xie Peng nodded without any pretense: "Yes, I fell in love with her at first sight." His heart is still beating wildly!
Gu Yongnian laughed loudly, obviously not taking Xie Peng's words seriously.
Xie Peng did not laugh, but solemnly declared: "I'm not kidding, everything I said is true. I really fell in love with her at first sight. As long as she hasn't been engaged, I will go back to beg my parents immediately."
Find someone to propose marriage."
Seriously! Gu Yongnian touched his chin and decided to give some advice: "She is my cousin, so I know her temperament very well. She is indeed beautiful. Looking at the capital, except for Shen Chong who married into the prince's house,
Concubine, I will probably never find another one who can compare with her. However, her temperament is also very troublesome. It is not something that ordinary people can stand. You have to think clearly..."
"I have thought it through very clearly." Xie Peng's face turned red. "I just like her. No matter what she looks like, I want to marry her. Tell me, is she married?"
Gu Yongnian shrugged: "No, she is withdrawn and doesn't want to see outsiders. My eldest aunt has no way to take her out. So no one has come to propose marriage until now. One last question, do you really plan to go back and ask your parents to come?
Propose marriage?"
Xie Peng nodded with a serious look on his face. He was obviously not joking.
"I have warned you first. Although she has a withdrawn temperament, her aunt, uncle, and cousin all treat her like a treasure. Even if you come to propose marriage, you may not agree." Gu Yongnian said casually.
Said: "Last year, the man named Shen Chang'an came to our house every day with famous invitations, and even the queen was a matchmaker, but he failed."
I heard that Shen Changan later went to Shandong to suppress bandits, and there was no news for more than half a year. He didn't believe it for the first time if he said that it had nothing to do with Gu Xinian. He had experienced Gu Xinian's power, so don't look at it
He usually looks easy-going and polite, but in fact he is the most ruthless...
Xie Peng said confidently: "Don't worry, I will definitely succeed. Maybe I will change my name to your cousin soon."
...Gu Yongnian couldn't laugh or cry, so he simply said no more: "Then I wish you good luck."
Xie Peng grinned, immersed in the beautiful fantasy, and simply unable to extricate himself.
…
After returning to Lengyue Pavilion, Ye Qinglan smiled and said: "Cousin Xiyu, what you did just now was really great."
Gu Xiyu didn't say anything, but just stretched out her hands. Her white and tender hands were wet. She didn't know how much cold sweat she shed because of nervousness. She just suppressed it and didn't show it.
Ye Qinglan looked at it and felt a slight pain in her heart. She wiped the sweat from her palms carefully with a handkerchief and said slowly: "You performed very well today. Although you are still a little nervous and scared, at least you didn't show any signs of it."
You came out and made others notice. Moreover, you embarrassed that scoundrel in a clean and neat manner. I am really proud of you."
Gu Xiyu whispered: "Do you really think so?"
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly: "Of course it's true. When did I lie to you?"
Gu Xiyu pursed her lips, and then smiled. That relaxed and relieved smile was as bright and dazzling as flowers blooming, and like the scorching sun at noon.
Ye Qinglan asked casually: "By the way, do you hate this Xie Peng?" What Gu Xiyu showed just now was not ordinary alienation, it was simply the same as disgust.
Gu Xiyu nodded honestly: "Well, it's very annoying."
"Why do you hate him so much?" Ye Qinglan paid careful attention to the changes in Gu Xiyu's expression: "This is the first time you have met him. He has never seen a girl as beautiful as you. It is inevitable to lose his temper for a while. Just like Shen Chang'an first
Just like the first time I met you, I kept losing my composure."
Mentioning Shen Chang'an, Gu Xiyu suddenly fell silent, with struggle and confusion flashing in her eyes. She had no habit of analyzing her own behavior. Just now she just acted and said those words according to her heart. But now Ye Qinglan said this
, she suddenly felt something strange in her heart...
Yes, Shen Changan actually acted more recklessly and excessively that day, but at that time she was just afraid, but not as disgusted with this boy as she is today...
Gu Xiyu was thinking silently, and Ye Qinglan didn't bother her, just sitting quietly aside.
Shen Changan has been gone for so long and there has been no news. Gu Xiyu has never taken the initiative to mention Shen Changan. But this person has obviously remained in Gu Xiyu's heart. It's just that Gu Xiyu is not good at expressing and is not used to speaking out her thoughts.
, so Mrs. Zheng and Gu Xinian both thought that Gu Xiyu had forgotten Shen Changan.
She even had such an illusion, so she just tried a few words. But the fact is obvious, Gu Xiyu has not forgotten Shen Changan at all, never!
Ye Qinglan remembered what Gu Xinian had said that day, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, with a rare hesitation and conflict in her heart. To be honest, she still had a good impression of Shen Changan, and she always felt that Shen Changan was Gu Xiyu's chosen one.
But Gu Xinian's scruples are not unreasonable. If Shen Changan inevitably goes to the border to fight in the future, what will Gu Xiyu do then?
She had promised Gu Xinian never to mention Shen Changan in front of Gu Xiyu, but today she couldn't help but mention this person again...
"Cousin Lan," Gu Xiyu suddenly opened her mouth and said, "I understand. Shen Changan is different from this Xie Peng."
After saying this, he seemed to not know how to continue speaking, and was stunned for a moment.
Ye Qinglan came back to her senses and looked at Gu Xiyu with encouraging eyes. Putting other things aside for the time being, the most important thing was to help Gu Xiyu sort out her thoughts.
Gu Xiyu thought for a long time before whispering: "Shen Changan is different to me. I like him, so I don't mind his recklessness." But this Xie Peng is different. He is so obsessed with him.
Looking at it, she felt no joy, only disgust.
"Shen Chang'an has been gone for so long, haven't you forgotten him?" Ye Qinglan stared into Gu Xiyu's eyes: "Does your love still exist in your heart?"
Gu Xiyu seemed to have really figured it out and nodded without hesitation.
"If he comes back to propose marriage again, will you be willing to marry him?" Ye Qinglan asked again.
Gu Xiyu was very resistant to getting married. Whenever the topic was mentioned, she would basically shake her head. But this time, Gu Xiyu was stunned for a long time, and then nodded gently.
Ye Qinglan was also shocked. She didn't know what to say for a moment. A thought flashed through her mind. It's over. If Gu Xinian knew about this, it would be strange to strangle her to death!
Gu Xiyu, however, seemed to have completely figured it out, and said softly: "You told me that if you like someone, you just want to stay with him forever. If one day, I have to marry someone, then I will marry him alright."
She still doesn't want to get married, but if she really must marry, then she would marry Shen Changan. At least, she knows that he likes her very much, and she also likes him.
Ye Qinglan's expression was a little strange. She didn't seem to be very happy, but rather cautious: "Cousin Xiyu, let me give you an example. If Shen Changan leaves for a long, long time, will you keep waiting for him?"
Gu Xiyu thought for a while and nodded again.
...Well, from this moment on, she has to think about how to help Gu Xiyu fight for her own happiness!
There is no problem with Mr. and Mrs. Ding Guo. They wish that Gu Xiyu could marry into the Shen Mansion. Gu Hong can probably accept this, but the relationship between Mrs. Zheng and Gu Xinian is very difficult. Especially the stubborn Gu Xinian …
Thinking of Gu Xinian's strong opposition, Ye Qinglan felt a headache. It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to convince Gu Xinian. It is almost impossible...
After Gu Xiyu figured out her worries, she felt very happy. Seeing Ye Qinglan frowning and saying nothing, she unexpectedly took the initiative to comfort Ye Qinglan: "Don't worry about my affairs. Shen Changan is still in Shandong and has not come back. These things are waiting for him. It’s not too late to talk about it when we come back.”
Ye Qinglan was dumbfounded. Yes, Shen Changan hasn't come back yet, and everything is unknown. What's the use of her thinking here early? As the old saying goes, we can talk about the future things later. She can't think about it now. There's no point in trying too much, you're just asking for trouble.
Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu smiled at each other and put the entire topic behind them in a tacit understanding.
The incident of meeting Gu Yongnian and Xie Peng by the pond quickly reached Madam Zheng's ears. Madam Zheng called Mo Xiang over for questioning, and her face sank as she listened.
Mo Xiang held back her anger and naturally spoke in great detail: "...that young master Xie said he wanted to see the young lady. The servant wanted to stop him, but the seventh young master insisted on leading Mr. Xie to the pond. The servant heard this That young master Xie said that as long as the seventh young master is willing to take him to see our lady, he will give him his oriole..."
Mrs. Zheng's face changed with anger. Just as she was about to say something, a deep voice suddenly came from the door: "Mo Xiang, what happened today?"
