Everyone in the hall had their own thoughts, but on the surface they were all in harmony, chatting and laughing in a lively manner.
Ye Qinglan's strengths were undoubtedly revealed at this moment. She sat there with a slight smile, not showing any complacency and arrogance. She observed the words and expressions and answered the words at the right time, and her smart and thoughtful response was admirable.
Mo, who had not taken her seriously at first, now really looked at Ye Qinglan differently.
If nothing happens, the smart and smart girl in front of you will marry into the Dingguo Palace sooner or later. In the long run, it is necessary to make friends with her...
Mo's mind was spinning and she had already made up her mind. The smile on her face became more friendly and easy-going, and she said with a smile: "If you have time in the future, Miss Ye Shi might as well come to the house more and talk to me to relieve her boredom.
.”
Ye Qinglan quickly put on a flattered expression and agreed happily.
The people sitting and talking were all respectable aristocratic women, each one more shrewd and smooth than the last. Seeing that Mr. Mo praised Ye Qinglan so highly, they naturally joined in the fun. One smiled and praised Ye Qinglan's outstanding appearance, and the other praised Ye Qinglan for being well-dressed today.
Ye Qinglan remained humble and calm amidst the praises from everyone, and faced them all with a smile.
In the past, on such occasions, Shen Qiuyu was the one who stole the limelight. She had long been accustomed to the glory and vanity of being surrounded by stars. But today, the limelight was completely stolen by Ye Qinglan! Listening to everyone's comments on Ye Qinglan
Looking at the smile on Ye Qinglan's lips, Shen Qiuyu felt unspeakably dazzling. Thinking back to the humiliation he suffered in the palace last time, the jealousy in Shen Qiuyu's heart became more and more endless...
Mo's eyes were always paying attention to Shen Qiuyu's every move. When he saw Shen Qiuyu's slightly stiff smile, Mo's felt indescribable joy.
At this moment, a wedding lady came in with a smile on her face and reported: "The newlyweds have arrived at the house and are going to the wedding hall to worship heaven and earth. The Duke and the old lady specially ordered the servants to come over and invite you to watch the ceremony."
Everyone's spirits were lifted and they stood up with smiles. As the host, Mrs. Zheng took the lead without giving up, followed by the Crown Princess and her group, followed closely by Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu. Then came the female family members who came to watch the ceremony.
.
Ms.
Zheng frowned slightly and reminded her in a low voice: "Many people are paying attention to you, so don't keep a sullen face." After Ye Qinglan was in the limelight, everyone couldn't help but pay more attention to Xue.
It's this kind of reaction that in the eyes of interested people, it would be strange if some gossips don't spread.
When Mrs.
Zheng twitched the corners of her lips, but she was thinking secretly in her heart. If she wasn't afraid that Xue would be embarrassed and hurt herself, she wouldn't be bothered to meddle in these nosy matters!
Ye Qinglan. If Mr.
When they arrived at the wedding hall, Gu Yongnian, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and the bride wearing a hijab were standing side by side. Gu Yongnian still looked very handsome, and the bright red wedding dress suppressed the original frivolity a bit.
It looks quite pleasing to the eye.
The slender Zhang Yue stood beside him quietly and submissively. Everyone's shouts of joy and praise rang out, such as the talent of the man and the beauty of the woman, what a match made in heaven. In short, what was good to hear. Then they worshiped the elders and the couple before sending them into the bridal chamber.
Ye Qinglan watched the excitement for a while leisurely. After the bride and groom were sent into the wedding room, most of the people in the wedding hall left with a roar and went to the new house to watch the excitement.
Gu Xinian finally took a peek, walked to Gu Xiyu's side calmly, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, don't you want to go to the new house to see the bride?"
Gu Xiyu, however, was not very interested in such excitement and responded casually: "It's not too late to see it tomorrow."
Gu Xinian glanced at Ye Qinglan again naturally: "Cousin Lan, do you want to go there?"
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "I'd better stay with cousin Xiyu." The two of them stared at each other for a second or two, and then each used the greatest self-control to look away.
There are not many people left in the wedding hall, and they have been attracted by the movement here. To be honest, Gu Xinian and Ye Qinglan have stolen the limelight of both the groom and the bride today.
Most of the time, it's strange that the two of them stand together like this and don't attract attention.
Ye Qinglan couldn't help but wink at Gu Xinian. Why are you still holding on? Do you think the rumors are not enough?
Gu Xinian also knew that this was not a good opportunity to talk, so he whispered: "You two, don't run around. I'll go over and take a look first, and I'll be back in a while."
After Gu Xinian left, Ye Qinglan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Before she could finish breathing, a familiar figure came into view. Ye Qinglan raised her eyebrows in surprise, and then laughed in a low voice: "Cousin Xiyu, hurry up and see who that person is?"
In fact, without Ye Qinglan's reminder, Gu Xiyu had already noticed two scorching eyes staring at her. As soon as she raised her head, she met a pair of black eyes full of passion and longing.
Shen Changan! Why is he here?
Gu Xiyu felt her heart beating wildly, and subconsciously lowered her eyelids, her cheeks feeling slightly warm.
Shen Changan stopped when he was two meters away, and his voice was a little low and hoarse: "Sister Gu, long time no see." It has been more than a month since we parted ways with the Duke of Zheng on that day.
Not seeing her for one day was like three autumns, not seeing her for so many days, and the feeling of crazy longing made him unable to sleep or eat well.
Gu Xiyu hummed softly. Although the two of them had not spoken much, they also attracted a lot of attention. One was the reclusive daughter of Duke Dingguo, and the other was the Duke of Zhongyong, who was famous for his rough and unruly character.
The eldest son, two people with completely different personalities came together, and it was difficult not to attract attention.
Ye Qinglan coughed and said with a smile: "It's inconvenient to talk with so many people here, so we'd better go outside to talk."
In fact, even outside the wedding hall, it was not quiet anywhere. In a hurry, he walked around the verandah and finally found a relatively quiet corner. Ye Qinglan said quickly: "If you two have something to say, please tell me. I will speak for you."
Let's relax." He said, walked away a few steps, and stood with his back to the two people.
He originally had a lot to say, but when their eyes met, Shen Changan suddenly didn't want to say anything anymore. He just looked at Gu Xiyu infatuatedly, secretly hoping that time would stop in his heart.
Gu Xiyu was a little embarrassed by his look, and asked calmly: "Why are you here?" Shen Chang'an used to come here often, but he never had the opportunity to enter Duke Dingguo's mansion.
Shen Changan grinned: "Today is your cousin's wedding day. I prepared a congratulatory gift and came in."
The concierge had been warned on weekdays never to let Shen Changan enter the house. But today was different from usual days. It was Gu Yongnian's wedding day, and there was absolutely no reason to turn away the congratulatory guests. Therefore, Shen Changan After taking advantage of this opportunity, I was finally able to enter the Duke Dingguo's mansion openly and openly.
But even after entering the house, it is not easy to see Gu Xiyu. Male guests and female guests are separated, and Gu Xiyu doesn't like to join the crowd, not to mention that Gu Xinian is watching eagerly from the side. It's not easy to do so. Taking this opportunity, I finally met Gu Xiyu.
Gu Xiyu raised her eyes and looked at Shen Changan quietly. In her beautiful and pure eyes, there was a hint of tenderness that she didn't even know she had: "How have you been lately?"
When she looked at her like this, Shen Changan felt a numbness all over his body, and he felt light from his fingertips to his toes. He blurted out: "I'm living a good life, I just miss you every day." After the words were spoken, he realized that he had been rash. He smiled coquettishly and tried to remedy the situation: "What I said was from my heart. Don't be angry..."
Gu Xiyu suddenly smiled, and two small smiles appeared on her lips, which were brighter and more moving than the afternoon sun: "Who said I was angry? I am very happy now."
Shen Changan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, and the distance between him and Gu Xiyu suddenly narrowed a lot: "Actually, I often come to Dingguo Gong's Mansion to see you. But every time I come, the concierge won't let you in. I'm going into the mansion." After a pause, he said with a guilty conscience: "Actually, I came here quietly a few times at night. I wanted to climb over the wall to get in, but there were too many guards in Dingguogong's mansion, and I wanted to hide it from everyone. It was not easy to climb over the wall secretly, so I had to go back home."
Speaking of this, Shen Changan also felt strange in his heart. It was common for the noble family's mansion to have some servants to protect the courtyard, but the guards in Dingguo Duke's mansion were surprisingly good. And all of them had very sensitive ears. It would pop up at the slightest sign of trouble, causing him to return in vain every time.
Of course, Shen Changan had no idea that most of these guards were secret guards arranged by Gu Xinian...
Gu Xiyu was also ignorant of all this. Hearing this, she whispered: "It's too dangerous to come here at night. What if the guards think you are a thief and attack you?"
Shen Changan patted his chest angrily: "Don't worry, even ten or eight of them are no match for me."
Ye Qinglan didn't look back, but she heard these words with her sharp ears, and couldn't help but burst into laughter. She didn't even make a draft when she was bragging. If her guess is correct, those guards who patrolled the night were all secret guards arranged by Gu Xinian, and they were absolutely skilled. Not much different. No matter how good Shen Changan is, he can't beat four hands with two fists!
With Shen Changan's temper, he must have "tried" it long ago. But he never succeeded... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
