Zheng Junyan didn't notice anything strange about Ye Qingning, and said directly: "I really don't know how cousin Meng could make friends with such a rude warrior. He also said that he would come to visit him in a few days. I don't want to deal with him anymore. "
Obviously, Zheng Junyan's impression of Shen Changan is not very good.
Ye Qingning hesitated for a moment and had to say: "Cousin, there is actually something I haven't told you."
In fact, the matter between Shen Changan and Gu Xiyu could not be kept secret for long. When Shen Changan and Gu Xiyu met three days later, Zheng Junyan would naturally know everything. But if he really waited until then to find out, he would definitely feel uncomfortable. Still It would be better to tell him earlier so that he can be mentally prepared.
However, Zheng Junyan had liked Gu Xiyu before. I wonder how he would react after hearing this...
Zheng Junyan saw Ye Qingning hesitating and refused to speak openly, and his curiosity was aroused: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, do the two of us still have to hide it?"
Ye Qingning calmed down and hinted: "Today I will send someone to send a letter to cousin Xiyu, inviting her to come to the house as a guest in three days."
When Gu Xiyu was mentioned, Zheng Junyan's expression became less natural.
Just like Ye Qingning could never forget Gu Xinian, he had never forgotten Gu Xiyu in his heart. Of course, this ignorant and budding relationship had long been suppressed by reason. Ever since he got engaged to Ye Qingning, he had tried his best to forget about it. Gu Xiyu. He has always done well. After getting married, he and Ye Qingning had a sweet love and harmony, and Gu Xiyu's shadow has almost disappeared.
But Ye Qingning suddenly mentioned it, and she always felt a little guilty: "It's so good. Why did you think of inviting cousin Xiyu to be a guest?"
Seeing that he didn't understand what she meant, Ye Qingning further hinted: "Actually, the tenth sister wrote to Shen Chang'an today and invited him to come to the house as a guest in three days."
Zheng Junyan hummed at first, and then the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. So why did he invite them both to be guests at the same time...
A suspicion vaguely came to mind, but he didn't want to believe it at all. How could the beautiful, gentle and quiet Gu Xiyu be related to that Shen Changan? It was impossible. He must have thought wrong!
"You're not mistaken." Ye Qingning's voice was a little erratic, but it penetrated his ears word by word: "Actually, Shen Changan's sweetheart is cousin Xiyu."
Zheng Junyan only felt a bang in his head and went blank.
Now that we have started, we naturally have to explain everything clearly: "Actually, before he went to Shandong, he had a mutual affection with his cousin Xiyu. Now, nearly a year has passed before he came back from Shandong. I guess. It's impossible to meet cousin Xiyu. So, Shimei and I arranged for them both to come to our house as guests..."
Zheng Junyan finally managed to find his voice: "How could cousin Xiyu like that reckless martial artist? You must have made a mistake."
Ye Qingning is someone who has been here before, so how could he not guess Zheng Junyan's mood at the moment. He also felt a little sour in his heart. His words were also full of sourness: "Why can't cousin Xiyu like Shen Changan? Do you think he is a reckless warrior? Maybe in the eyes of cousin Xiyu, this is the real man."
Zheng Junyan was speechless and didn't know what he was feeling. In his heart, a woman like Gu Xiyu was born to be held in the palm of his hand, protected and cherished. After his confession was rejected that day, he felt really depressed for a long time. But he didn't feel like it in his heart. He resented and even hoped that Gu Xiyu would meet a man a hundred times better than herself in the future.
But, how could that person be Shen Changan...
Zheng Junyan frowned and didn't speak for a long time.
Ye Qingning calmly said: "Ten sister knows the best about the two of them. I also know a little bit. However, I haven't told you yet. They will be guests in three days. You will know what's going on, so don't make a fuss. By the way, I also quietly hinted to Cousin Meng."
Zheng Junyan was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "If the two of them are interested in each other, why didn't Shen Chang'an go to Dingguo's palace to propose marriage in an upright manner?"
"He actually thinks that the key is that neither his aunt nor his cousin agrees with this marriage." Ye Qingning said lightly: "Me and Shi Mei just want to help them and let them meet."
Zheng Junyan thought about it over and over again and felt that something was wrong with this matter. But now that the plan had been finalized, it was too late to change it. He nodded reluctantly.
But after this incident, the originally harmonious young couple felt like there was an extra layer of estrangement in their hearts, and they felt unspeakably awkward. In the next two days, the two of them appeared to be normal, but when they were alone together, they could not even speak. Couldn't say a few words.
Ye Qinglan noticed something was wrong and asked Ye Qingning privately: "Sixth sister, did you have a quarrel with your brother-in-law?"
Ye Qingning denied it flatly: "It's nothing, don't make random guesses." He said so, but his unhappy eyes could not hide it from Ye Qinglan.
Obviously, this young couple was really at odds. Ye Qinglan thought for a moment and guessed the reason: "Did you tell your brother-in-law about Shen Changan and cousin Xiyu?"
Ye Qingning nodded, thinking of Zheng Junyan's reaction at that time, he felt extremely depressed, but it was difficult to say such things directly.
Fortunately, Ye Qinglan was considerate. Now that she knew the crux of the matter, she naturally comforted her with words: "Don't be angry with your brother-in-law. After all, he liked cousin Xiyu before, so he felt unhappy when he heard such things. It’s inevitable. It will naturally get better in a few days.”
In the final analysis, it was Zheng Junyan who got the taste, and then Ye Qingning also took the sour water. Less than three months after the wedding, it was the time of deep love and affection, how could Ye Qingning tolerate Zheng Junyan thinking about someone else.
Sure enough, Ye Qingning complained aggrievedly: "You didn't see that when I told him about this, his face was so ugly. He kept saying that Shen Changan was not worthy of cousin Xiyu, so who could be? It’s not him! I can finally see that his kindness to me is all hypocrisy. What he really likes in his heart is cousin Xiyu..."
Ye Qingning was so angry that what he said was unavoidable. Ye Qinglan hurriedly comforted him: "Don't think so wildly. Why is my brother-in-law so hypocritical about you? He personally arranged the piano room for you. Even when his friends asked him to go out for a drink, he Even if I refuse, it’s not just to stay with you in the house.”
These are all true. Ye Qingning's expression softened a little.
Ye Qinglan chuckled again and said: "Don't be angry with my brother-in-law. To compare, after you found out about the matter between me and Cousin Gu, you were angry for more than a month."
Ye Qingning, who was exposed, rolled her eyes in shame: "Hey, where are you on?"
Ye Qinglan immediately declared righteously: "Of course I will stand firmly on your side."
"You can talk sweet words to make me happy." Ye Qingning spat at her, but the corners of his lips raised slightly, and the suffocation that had been stuck in his heart finally dissipated.
Ye Qinglan was naturally familiar with her temperament, and explained patiently: "Brother-in-law is not happy right now. He probably feels that Shen Changan is not worthy of cousin Xiyu, so it is not worth feeling sorry for cousin Xiyu. When they meet tomorrow, My brother-in-law will naturally figure it out."
Zheng Junyan is a smart man, and he can definitely see that the two of them are in love. Even if he feels unhappy, he will not talk too much.
After being persuaded like this, Ye Qingning finally felt much better. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Ten sisters, the two of us secretly arranged for them to meet. If Cousin Gu finds out, he will definitely be angry!"
That's for sure! Ye Qinglan avoided the important issue and said with a smile: "If Cousin Gu gets angry, just let me deal with him."
That's true. As the saying goes, one thing brings another down. No matter how angry Gu Xinian is, he probably won't be able to bear to lose his temper with Ye Qinglan! Ye Qingning thought sourly.
In fact, Ye Qingning had gone astray. It was common for Gu Xinian and Ye Qinglan to have disagreements and disputes, and they rarely gave in on their own initiative.
Ye Qinglan knew what Ye Qingning was thinking, but she didn't explain it. From the day Gu Xiyu said she was willing to marry Shen Changan, she was determined to do her best to help them both. Tomorrow's meeting is absolutely necessary, at least it can Let the two of them understand each other's feelings better. Then they can make the next step...
At this time, Gu Xiyu was ignorant and knew nothing about it. The news of Shen Changan's return to the capital was blocked by Gu Xinian and did not reach her ears at all. She continued to live quietly every day as usual. Staying in the boudoir. Although her autism has been cured, her temperament is introverted and quiet, which cannot be changed in the short term.
Gu Xiyu was very happy to receive Ye Qingning's invitation two days ago. Of course, she didn't go there for Ye Qingning, but because Ye Qinglan was also in Zheng Guogong's mansion, she agreed in front of the lady in charge who delivered the letter.
Mrs. Zheng was also present at the time. She originally wanted to say something, but seeing Gu Xiyu's rare happiness, she couldn't bear to stop her.
Gu Xinian has been busy with official duties recently. He leaves early and comes back late every day, so he has no idea about this matter. It is rare to come back early today. Hearing Gu Xiyu and Mrs. Zheng discussing what to wear when they leave the house tomorrow, he naturally asked: " Yu'er, are you leaving the house tomorrow?"
Gu Xiyu nodded happily: "Well, I'm going to visit my uncle's house." After a pause, she added: "Cousin Qingning specially invited me to go."
Gu Xinian smiled calmly, but his heart moved quietly. Of course he knew very well that Ye Qinglan was also a guest at Dingguo's mansion. Gu Xiyu's willingness to leave the mansion was definitely for Ye Qinglan.
He hadn't seen her for more than a month, and he also missed that sharp-tongued girl. Unfortunately, tomorrow was a court meeting that happened every five days, so she had to be there.
Otherwise, just go there after the court is over, just in time to give her a surprise... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, your support is my biggest motivation .)
