Under the gorgeous lights, his smile was soft and warm, making everything around him pale in comparison.
Ye Qinglan quietly looked at the young man with a gentle smile, and suddenly remembered the scene when she saw him for the first time. At that time, he turned his back to her and gently coaxed Gu Xiyu. The moment he slowly turned around, she felt
She was extremely stunning. Perhaps at that moment, the seeds of love quietly took root in her heart. Even though she gradually became aware of his true face later, the scene when they first met was firmly imprinted in her heart.
At that time, I never thought that one day she would be entangled with this man...
The sedan stopped at the entrance of East Street. There were already many soft sedans and horses parked here, and it was very lively and crowded.
After getting off the sedan, Ye Qinglan took a long breath. The clean and crisp air invigorated people. The bustling streets were brightly lit and crowded, making people ready to move.
Since traveling through time, this was the first time Ye Qinglan had truly seen the ancient market. Her interest became high and she couldn't help but look around.
Gu Xiyu came closer with a guilty conscience. Although her autism was much better, she still couldn't help but feel frightened when she saw so many people...
"Cousin Xiyu, don't be afraid." Ye Qinglan smiled, held her hand, and encouraged in a low voice: "There are so many people coming and going here, no one will specially stare at you."
Gu Xiyu hummed and held her hand tightly.
Ye Qingning and others also gathered around, and so many people naturally divided into three groups. Ye Yuanwei and his wife and Cui Wan and his wife walked together. Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning and his wife Gu Xinian were together, and Gu Yongnian and his wife were slightly behind.
After walking a few steps, a figure suddenly appeared from the shadows diagonally, with an exaggerated smile of surprise on his face: "Yongnian, why are you here too? What a coincidence!"
Everyone paused and looked over.
The person who came was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing an apricot-colored satin robe, his hair was neatly tied up, and his facial features were delicate. He had obviously been carefully tidied up. He was clean and neat.
Gu Yongnian pretended to greet him and started chatting warmly with the young man.
Gu Xiyu recognized the person at a glance, frowned, and turned her head to the side in disinterest.
Gu Xinian's eyes flashed and he glanced at Gu Yongnian coldly. Even though Gu Yongnian turned sideways, he still felt Gu Xinian's cold gaze. He couldn't help but shudder secretly. Thinking of Gu Xinian's various tricks again
The person's methods made his scalp feel numb. He suddenly felt regretful. He really shouldn't have soft-heartedly agreed to Xie Peng's request just because he begged him hard...
While chatting with Gu Yongnian, Xie Peng glanced at Gu Xiyu frequently, his intentions so obvious that even passers-by could see it.
Ye Qingning winked at Ye Qinglan. Could this person be the legendary Xie Peng?
Ye Qinglan smiled and nodded slightly.
Ye Qingning suddenly understood. One of the two most sensational news circulating in the aristocratic circles of the capital last year was that Xie Peng admired Gu Xiyu and begged his parents to propose marriage. Unexpectedly, both Xie Shangshu and Ma refused to agree and forced Xie Peng to marry him.
Peng Guan was imprisoned in Shangshu Mansion for several months. He was not released until the Chinese New Year. I never expected that he would appear at this time and place...
Xie Peng shamelessly followed him. Everyone knew that the drunkard was not interested in drinking. Gu Xinian looked calm and stood beside Gu Xiyu. With Gu Xinian here, no matter how big Xie Peng was,
He didn't dare to approach Gu Xiyu, so he could only stare at the beauty's figure and sigh with excitement.
Gu Yongnian lowered his voice and reminded: "Hey, you should be more reserved! If you stare at your cousin like that, even a blind person can see that you have evil intentions."
Xie Peng also felt extremely aggrieved: "I haven't seen her for several months, how can I bear to look at her less."
Gu Yongnian: "..."
"Tell me, if I dare to go over and talk to Sister Gu now, will she be overjoyed?" Xie Peng's eyes were shining, and he was trapped in his own fantasy and couldn't extricate himself.
Gu Yongnian rolled his eyes: "If you are not afraid of my cousin, just try it and you will know."
Xie Peng glanced at Gu Xinian's back, and suddenly remembered the painful experience, and immediately flinched: "Forget it, I'll wait for a good opportunity to approach Sister Gu later."
Everyone walked slowly into the East Street. There were a lot of people coming and going at this time. They could only walk forward slowly with the crowd, which was not a lot of fun. Their attention was attracted by the exquisite lanterns one by one. Gu Xiyu didn't pay attention at all.
Xie Peng, who was behind him, pointed to a peach blossom-shaped lantern with a smile: "Cousin Lan, look, that lantern is so beautiful!"
Ye Qinglan looked over attentively, smiled and nodded in agreement: "It's really beautiful. And the orchid lantern is also very elegant."
Gu Xinian smiled and said nothing, and gave Quan Fu a faint look. Quan Fu immediately went over and bought the two lanterns he liked.
On the other side, Ye Qingning also took a fancy to an exquisite carp lantern. Zheng Junyan generously donated the money, which also made the beauty smile sweetly. When it comes to pleasing a woman, no one is better than Gu Yongnian. Not only did he diligently buy it for Zhang Yue
After lighting up the lanterns, she also bought some hot snacks and held them in her hands. She said softly: "Yue'er, you will definitely have to go shopping for a long time before going to a restaurant to eat tonight. You should eat something first to fill your stomach."
Zhang Yue's delicate and elegant face was slightly red, but her eyes shone with joy, and she hummed softly.
Ye Qinglan occasionally looked back, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckle.
Gu Yongnian, a dissolute and flamboyant young man, seems to have changed after getting married. Most of his original frivolity has disappeared, but he has become more stable. When marrying a wife, you should marry a virtuous man. This statement is indeed true. Zhang Yue said to Gu
Yongnian obviously has quite a good influence...
Gu Xinian followed Ye Qinglan's gaze and looked over, then laughed softly: "After Yongnian got married, things are much better than before."
This was the first time the two of them spoke tonight. Ye Qinglan hummed, then raised her eyes and glanced at him: "Are your illnesses cured?" Concern was revealed in her indifferent tone.
Gu Xinian smiled and said in a low voice: "Originally, I was only 70% or 80% better, but after seeing you tonight, everything will be fine."
Ye Qinglan glared at him. Gu Xiyu was standing next to her, and he was not afraid that she would hear such words...
Under the colorful lanterns, that beautiful face that was both happy and angry was as pretty as a flower. Gu Xinian looked at her with a smile, and felt that the most empty and cold place in his heart was getting warmer.
The two looked at each other silently, and the air was filled with entanglement. The two were in love, and there is no need to elaborate on how seductive this scene is. Gu Xiyu noticed the two people looking at each other for the first time, and turned around with a smile.
Everyone also turned a blind eye with a tacit understanding.
Cui Yu looked at this scene with a bitter smile on his lips.
When he heard that the Queen was going to marry them two, he almost couldn't believe his ears. Ye Qinglan and Gu Xinian... how could it be possible? One is the direct grandson of Duke Dingguo, and the other is Uncle Changyuan.
The concubine of the mansion, two people who seem to be incompatible with each other, how come they suddenly become a couple?
But the facts cannot be distinguished. On the eve of the New Year, the news that Changyuan's Mansion received Feng's decree spread throughout the capital that day. No one knew that he stayed up all night that night.
But at the moment when he saw the two of them smiling and looking at each other, he suddenly felt that all his unwillingness was just self-indulgence. The two of them were a truly compatible pair. From now on, he really should give up completely...
Luo Miaoke had been paying attention to the changes in his expression. Seeing him looking at Ye Qinglan in a daze, she felt quite uncomfortable. She coughed lightly and said: "Mr. Sir, please accompany me to see the lanterns!"
Cui Yu composed himself, smiled a little apologetically, and finally withdrew his gaze. He accompanied Luo Miaoke to watch the lanterns.
Xie Peng waited for a long time and finally got a glimpse of such an opportunity. He was so happy that he hurriedly came to Gu Xiyu's side and asked diligently: "Which lantern does Sister Gu like? I will buy it for you."
Gu Xiyu didn't even look at him, and responded coldly: "The lanterns I like, my eldest brother will naturally buy them for me."
Xie Peng didn't get angry even after being hit with a problem, and still stared at Gu Xiyu's pretty face: "Sister Gu, I've always wanted to find you, but my father and mother don't allow me to go out..."
Gu Xiyu frowned a little impatiently, and finally glanced at him: "Mr. Xie, we have only met once, and we are not familiar with each other at all. Don't you think these words are very abrupt?"
Seeing that she was willing to look at him, Xie Peng was immediately elated and hurriedly expressed his feelings: "Although I have only met once, I have never forgotten you in my heart. Don't worry, although my parents have not figured it out for the time being, I
One day we will convince them to come and propose marriage."
...This person must be delusional!
Gu Xiyu was too lazy to talk to him anymore and simply turned around. With a casual glance, she suddenly saw an unexpectedly handsome face. Her eyes suddenly lit up and the corners of her lips were slightly raised.
Xie Peng hurriedly turned around, and suddenly saw Gu Xiyu pursed her lips and smiled, and was immediately drunk by that charming smile.
Gu Xiyu also likes him! It must be like this! Otherwise, how could she smile so touchingly? It must be because she was so moved after hearing him express his feelings!
Xie Peng was excited and happy, and was about to open his mouth to speak. Suddenly he saw a strong and handsome man walking forward.
This man is about twenty-one or twelve years old, with dark complexion and a scar on his forehead. He looks like he is not a kind person! Every year, the Lantern Festival is the busiest time in the capital, and scenes of harassing young girls are not uncommon...
Xie Peng immediately became vigilant, stood in front of Gu Xiyu, and looked at the visitor displeased: "Hey, who are you? You, as long as I'm here, don't even think about harassing Sister Gu!" (To be continued. If you like
