The coachman was quite clever, and he knew from this posture that he was useless, so he quickly drove the carriage back to the house. Gu Xinian had already dismounted, and kept a decent distance from Ye Qinglan.
Ruixue and Ruomei naturally knew what was going on, so they each stepped back a few steps to make it easier for them to talk.
Gu Xinian smiled and asked in a low voice: "How are you doing these days?"
"Ruomei didn't tell you?" Ye Qinglan asked with a smile.
Gu Xinian's expression did not change and he responded calmly: "I want to hear it from your own mouth."
...The thickness of his skin is indeed superb! Ye Qinglan glanced at him with a smile. Because she was in a good mood, she finally resisted the urge to complain and answered honestly: "It's very good and beautiful. It's the most comfortable and enjoyable experience I've ever had since I woke up."
It’s been a while.”
After waking up? These words are meaningful and very thought-provoking!
Gu Xinian's eyes flashed slightly and he said casually: "That's good. If you wait patiently for a few more days, the marriage decree will arrive at Changyuan Uncle's Mansion at most by the end of the year. From now on, no one will dare to do it casually.
I bullied you." Jiang, Zheng, and the others are all people who know the current affairs. As for Xue, no matter how stupid she is, she should know who can and cannot be provoked!
Ye Qinglan felt sweetness in her heart, and suddenly asked playfully: "What is this, a fox pretending to be a tiger?"
Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I think this is called beating a dog and it depends on the owner!"
Bah! Ye Qinglan spat at him with a smile and glared at him.
Ye Qinglan, who is so playful and energetic, shows the liveliness and cuteness that a girl of this age should have. Of course, she is also very good on weekdays. It's just that she is a little too calm and collected. It's hard to fathom her beautiful face.
What are you thinking under the smiling face...
Gu Xinian looked at Ye Qinglan, who was smiling sweetly, and the corners of his lips raised.
After waiting for less than a cup of tea, Gu Xiyu's carriage arrived.
The carriage curtain was raised, and a pretty face as white as jade poked out with a smile: "Cousin Lan, have you been waiting for a long time? Come quickly and get in the carriage."
Ye Qinglan smiled and agreed, leading Ruixue Ruomei onto the carriage. Gu Xinian also got on the horse, and the group walked slowly towards the Prince's Mansion.
In the carriage, Gu Xiyu asked Ye Qinglan with concern: "...How are you doing lately? Your mother didn't make things difficult for you, right?" She didn't know how to be subtle and euphemistic when speaking, so her question was unusually direct.
Ye Qinglan has long been accustomed to her way of speaking. She smiled and responded: "That's not true. Now my grandmother and eldest aunt are very good to me. Even my second aunt is very kind to me. My mother doesn't have the guts to embarrass me."
Gu Xiyu felt relieved now.
Ye Qinglan thought for a while and asked: "Cousin Xiyu, why do you want to go to the Prince's Mansion today?" She knows better than anyone how much Gu Xiyu hates crowds. Even if autism has been cured, Gu Xiyu definitely does not belong to it.
The kind of girl who is graceful and good at dancing in the crowd.
Gu Xiyu smiled: "It's Shen Qiuyu's birthday and I specially invited you to come over for a visit. There must be no good intentions. Although my eldest brother is going with you, he can't be with you all the time. It's better for me to go with you."
After a pause, he laughed softly and said, "Don't worry. If anything happens, I will scream, cry, and scare them. Anyway, I have a good reputation. Even if I am rude, the prince's cousin can't blame me."
"
Looking at Gu Xiyu's pure and clear eyes, Ye Qinglan felt warm in her heart, but her nose was slightly sore. She naturally held Gu Xiyu's hand: "You must not have such thoughts. No matter what happens to you,
Just let me handle the matter. Don't you still believe me? Who can really make things difficult for me?"
Precisely because Gu Xiyu had a good reputation in the past, she must be more careful when appearing in front of everyone in the future. If she really does such nonsense, Gu Xiyu's reputation will be completely ruined.
Gu Xiyu trusted Ye Qinglan very much, and when she saw what she said, she nodded honestly.
Ye Qinglan was still not at ease and gave a few more words. The main idea was that this kind of thing that harms the enemy and destroys oneself is the most stupid behavior in the world. You must not do such a stupid thing. Even if the sky falls, there will be She, a tall person, is holding it!
"Cousin Lan, what you said is wrong." Gu Xiyu retorted seriously: "I am obviously a little taller than you."
Ye Qinglan: "..."
Mo Xiang Ruixue and the other maids covered their mouths and laughed. Ye Qinglan is well known for her eloquence and eloquence. It is rare to see her speechless. It is really fresh and interesting!
Ye Qinglan coughed and quickly changed the topic: "By the way, there is something I haven't had time to ask you yet. Has Shen Changan been to Duke Dingguo's Mansion in the past month or so?"
Gu Xiyu nodded: "I've been there a few times. The concierge also let him in."
Ye Qinglan's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great!" Gu Xinian finally gave in! However, before she could laugh, Gu Xiyu said again: "But, it's the elder brother every time. Go see him."
...In other words, Shen Changan has to continue to work hard to get past Gu Xinian's level.
Ye Qinglan smiled and reassured: "I can finally enter the house, which is a big progress." It is much better than not being able to get in!
Gu Xiyu pursed her lips and smiled, then dropped another bombshell: "Actually, my mother specifically asked me about him yesterday."
Ye Qinglan immediately became interested and asked: "Then what did you say?"
Gu Xiyu recalled what happened yesterday and smiled slightly: "What I said is very simple. If my mother wants me to marry, then just marry Shen Changan."
…
At that time, after hearing these words, Mrs. Zheng was stunned for a long time and could not recover. After a long time, she asked vaguely: "Yu'er, do you really like Shen Chang'an?"
Gu Xiyu hummed calmly.
Mrs. Zheng was stunned for a long time before she asked her second question: "What is so good about him?"
"What's wrong with him?" Gu Xiyu asked in confusion.
When it comes to Shen Changan's shortcomings, Mrs. Zheng naturally has a lot to say: "He hasn't read many books and is often rude without realizing it."
Gu Xiyu nodded in agreement, and then said: "However, he is very funny, silly and cute." I wonder if Shen Changan will hit the wall in frustration after hearing these two comments...
Mrs. Zheng frowned and said in a deep voice: "He is a military commander and has a background in martial arts."
Gu Xiyu blinked and said matter-of-factly: "Compared to my eldest brother, he is indeed not gentle. However, people are different and cannot be compared like this. Just like me, in fact, I am not the same as other girls. Same. However, my mother still loves me the same, doesn’t she?”
...When did she become so eloquent?!
Mrs. Zheng murmured secretly in her heart, and then added: "I heard that he has a reckless and rough temperament, and he will beat people if he disagrees with him."
"What does this have to do with anything!" Gu Xiyu asked doubtfully: "He is reluctant to even speak louder to me, and he is unlikely to do anything to me. What is there to worry about?"
Mrs. Zheng was completely speechless. There is a saying that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder! In her opinion, Shen Changan had many shortcomings and was not worthy of her precious daughter. But in Gu Xiyu's eyes, Shen Changan's All shortcomings have become advantages...
Mrs. Zheng began to think about such a question seriously. For so many years, she has protected Gu Xiyu in every possible way. There are basically no men in Gu Xiyu's world. Is this right or wrong? Why does Gu Xiyu's aesthetics So... strange?
Gu Xiyu waited for a long time, but didn't see Mrs. Zheng say anything else, so she took the initiative and asked: "Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Mrs. Zheng sighed quietly and replied sadly: "I'm wondering if I have done something wrong for so many years."
It is unrealistic to expect Gu Xiyu to understand such a subtle and profound lament. Therefore, Mrs. Zheng asked again in plain and easy-to-understand words: "Yu'er, mother will ask you one last time. Do you really like Shen?" Chang'an, or are you confused by him because you have never been in contact with other men?"
Gu Xiyu said frankly without any shyness: "Mother doesn't know it yet! In fact, cousin Zheng also likes me. There is also a man named Xie Peng who also admires me. However, I don't feel the slightest affection towards them. "
When Zheng Junyan confessed to her, she was young and didn't understand the relationship between men and women, so she rejected him without even realizing it. It wasn't until a long time later that she slowly understood this matter. However, she never realized it. I have never regretted what I said that day.
As for Xie Peng, she had no favorable impression at all.
The man who makes her miss her and makes her happy when she sees him is Shen Changan!
Mrs. Zheng was so shocked that she couldn't recover from the shock, and her mind was in a mess. Mrs. Zheng didn't speak, and Gu Xiyu didn't speak either. Mother and daughter just sat facing each other in silence all afternoon.
It wasn't until it was getting late and the maid knocked on the door that Mrs. Zheng said with a complicated mood: "Yu'er, I want to think about this carefully."
Regarding such an answer, Gu Xiyu seemed very calm: "Mom, just think about it slowly, it's okay. Anyway, my eldest brother also said to think about it carefully, so I'm not in a hurry."
Mrs. Zheng: "..."
Gu Xiyu's speech was actually not lively. She neither foreshadowed nor whetted her appetite. She just recounted the conversation between her and Mrs. Zheng yesterday in a straightforward manner. However, Ye Qinglan chuckled softly after hearing this, looking at Gu Xiyu's eyes. Full of pride.
That autistic and cowardly Gu Xiyu has become a thing of the past forever!
Now Gu Xiyu is brave and decisive, and even has the courage to argue for her future!
"Cousin Xiyu, I am so proud of you!" Ye Qinglan sighed sincerely.
Gu Xiyu was delighted to be praised, but also asked worriedly: "Mom just said to think about it, I don't know if she will agree!"
Ye Qinglan smiled slowly: "Don't worry! I guarantee you, whether she or Cousin Gu, they will give in in the end!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, Monthly tickets and your support are my biggest motivation.)
