Including the previous meeting, the two met twice in total. She was sure that she was very careful in what she said and did. Where did Gu Xinian's vague hostility towards her come from?
After much deliberation, she could not figure out the reason. Ye Qinglan had no choice but to suppress this doubt for the time being, but secretly made up her mind.
From now on, you must stay away from this Fourth Young Master Gu.
Gu Xiyu was completely oblivious to the flash of swords and swords between the two of them. She glanced at the two of them doubtfully with her black and white eyes, as if asking why you didn't leave yet?
Gu Xinian looked away, lowered his head and smiled: "Okay, don't worry, we're leaving now."
After leaving Jingxinyuan, we turned a corner and arrived at the garden. From a distance, we could see the figure of Mrs. Zheng and her entourage. Several masters plus a bunch of maids and women made it a huge force.
Ye Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief quietly. It was only a few minutes, but it seemed like a long time. Gu Xinian was clearly walking in front of her, but she always felt like a light on her back or a lump in her throat.
Ye Qingning was the first to notice the figures of the three people. He felt excited and happy in his heart, and couldn't help but came over: "Cousin, you finally showed up." After these words were spoken, Ye Qingning suddenly realized that he was a little out of sorts, busy and busy.
Added a few words: "We have been here a long time ago, and we thought you wouldn't come back today!"
Gu Xinian smiled lightly and responded: "It's a rare chance for you to come here. I have to come back no matter how busy I am."
Hearing these two ordinary polite words, Ye Qingning felt happy, and the shyness of a girl appeared on her pretty face, which was extremely touching.
Gu Xinian didn't react at all. After a casual greeting, he led Gu Xiyu to Zheng's side.
Ye Qinglan looked at Gu Xinian's figure and felt more defensive in her heart.
A normal man, when faced with the admiring and shy look of a young girl, would always have a somewhat different reaction than usual. Even if he didn't like the girl, he would inevitably have some male pride and pride! But Gu Xinian was completely indifferent.
.
There are only two possibilities for this, either he is not interested in women at all. Or, he has extraordinary self-control and can calmly control all his emotions.
If it's the former, that's fine. If it's the latter, this man is really deep and terrifying...
Ye Qingning naturally noticed Ye Qinglan's attention to Gu Xinian, but didn't think much about it. For a man as handsome as Gu Xinian, how could any woman resist his smile? It's normal to look at him more than once.
"Ten sisters, let's go over and enjoy the orchids too!" After Gu Xinian appeared, Ye Qingning's mood improved significantly.
Ye Qinglan came back to her senses and responded with a smile.
This was the first time Ye Qingrou saw the legendary Gu Silang. She was already in awe of his elegance and her eyes could hardly leave his face.
Ye Qingning saw that she was looking like a nymphomaniac, and suddenly he felt more balanced. He deliberately smiled and asked: "Bight sister, how are the orchids here, are they beautiful?"
"It's so beautiful." Ye Qingrou blurted out.
I don’t know whether I’m talking about the beauty of orchids or the tall and graceful young man.
Ye Qingning raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of mockery. Only then did Ye Qingning come back to his senses. He averted his gaze with some sarcasm. Ye Qinglan usually didn't talk much, so she was silent at the moment and did not attract the attention of the two cousins.
Mrs. Zheng looked at Gu Xinian with a smile, and couldn't help but praise: "Everyone praises Gu Silang for his unparalleled style and that he is the most handsome man in the capital. In my opinion, this is not an exaggeration at all. Even my dear
My aunt can’t help but look at it a few more times!”
This is not an out-and-out joke.
Gu Xinian was obviously used to dealing with this kind of situation, and he smiled calmly: "Auntie, don't be ashamed of me. I'm used to being lazy all day long. How can I compare to Yuan Wei who is as promising as he did it at a young age?
He is a minister of etiquette and has a loving wife and daughter. This is the true success of a young man."
He praised Ye Yuanwei so highly, and Mrs. Zheng felt naturally relieved after hearing it. Cui Wan on the side also pursed her lips and smiled softly, trying her best to resist the urge to look at him a few more times.
Mrs. Zheng glanced at her son and scolded dissatisfiedly: "Yuan Wei is as old as you, and he already has a wife and a daughter. You are better off, you are already twenty, and you are still alone..."
"The spring scenery is perfect today, it's boring to talk about this." Young Gu Xi changed the topic easily: "I remember there are a few pots of cymbidiums over there, and they are blooming very well. How about we go over there and take a look?"
Mrs. Zheng and others happily agreed. Mrs. Zheng had no choice but to shut up.
The path in the garden was not wide, only wide enough for two people to walk side by side. Mrs. Zheng Zheng walked in the front, followed closely by brother and sister Gu Xinian and Gu Xiyu. Ye Qingning did not want to walk side by side with Ye Qingrou, so she winked at Ye Qinglan repeatedly.
It's a pity that Ye Qinglan, who has always been smart, was a little slow today, and his reaction was a beat slow. In just a moment, Ye Qingrou had already rushed up.
Ye Qingning glared at Ye Qinglan slightly angrily.
Ye Qinglan smiled apologetically, and finally dealt with Ye Qingning. Whoever wanted to get close to Gu Xinian, she was determined to stay away from him anyway.
Ye Qinglan deliberately walked slower and kept some distance away without leaving any trace. A visual inspection showed that she was at least five meters away from Gu Xinian.
very good!
Ye Qinglan is very satisfied with this distance.
It's a pity that someone deliberately didn't want her to be safe, and suddenly shouted: "Cousin Lan, there is a pot of orchids blooming beautifully here, would you like to come over and enjoy it?"
Cousin Lan?
Ye Qingning and Ye Qingrou's eyes fell on Ye Qinglan's face. Especially Ye Qingning's pretty face suddenly darkened.
Under the warm sunshine, the young man in brocade robes with a slight smile was so handsome that it took your breath away. But Ye Qinglan had no mood to appreciate the handsome man, and secretly gritted her teeth. This hateful Gu Xinian must have deliberately brought hatred to her!
Deliberately letting everyone hear it, so that she could not refuse at all.
In full view of everyone, Ye Qinglan slowly moved over and stood one meter away from Gu Xinian, pretending to concentrate on admiring the pot of orchids.
"This pot of Cymbidium orchid is also called Jiuzilan." Mr. Gu Si came over gracefully and smiled gently and kindly: "One stem has many flowers. The flowering period lasts for three months. It is most suitable for viewing. What does Cousin Lan think?"
Ye Qinglan could almost feel Ye Qingning's cold eyes flying over like knives. She took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile and said, "I don't know much about this, but this pot of orchids is indeed very beautiful!"
Gu Xinian suddenly recited: "The orchid leaves are lush in spring, and the osmanthus flowers are bright and clear in autumn. I am happy with this business, and it is a festival. Who knows that those who live in the forest will listen to the wind and sit in joy with each other. The grass and trees have their own hearts, so why do they ask for beauty?"
"
When he came to the last word "beauty", Gu Xinian looked deeply at Ye Qinglan.
This...this is simply Chi Guoguo's teasing!
Ye Qinglan's face was faintly red, and even makeup couldn't hide that... shyness? Bah, bah, bah, of course not, it was complete anger!
Very good, there are almost no people who can anger her, but Gu Xinian did it easily!
Ye Qinglan's smile disappeared from her eyes. She said lightly: "Cousin Gu is indeed very talented in literature. He can recite such good poems casually."
Gu Xinian responded with a polite smile: "This is a poem written by Zhang Jiuling in the early dynasty. The poem is called Feelings of Encounter. It expresses the leisurely feelings in my heart by praising orchids. I thought it was very suitable for the occasion, so I casually said it."
What can you do if everyone is reasonable and courteous? Are you going to say, "What do you think of meeting or praising orchids? Bah, I don't want to meet someone like you."
Ye Qinglan's heart was boiling, but her face became calmer and gentler: "My cousin is so elegant, which makes me ashamed. Although I know a few words, I don't know much about poetry. I am far worse than the sixth sister.
Okay. Wouldn't it be better to call Sixth Sister over and let her accompany Cousin Gu to enjoy flowers and recite poems?"
Without waiting for Gu Xinian's reaction, Ye Qinglan shouted with a bright smile: "Sixth sister, cousin Gu is very popular in poetry and wants to compete with you in poetry!"
As expected, Ye Qingning came over immediately, and Ye Qingrou was unwilling to be left alone. She also came over shamelessly.
Being stared at by two pairs of bright girls' eyes, Gu Xinian's previous sense of joking suddenly disappeared.
But Ye Qinglan was still smiling at the side and said: "Sixth sister. Cousin Gu said that you should compose a poem within one stick of incense. You are the most talented among the three sisters. You must not lose to Gu Biao today."
elder brother."
Ye Qingning's bright face seemed to be shining with light, and she looked at Gu Xinian with a smile: "Cousin, we will each write a poem with the theme of orchid within the time limit of one stick of incense, and let everyone judge whose poem is more beautiful.
How about one win?"
What else could Gu Xinian say? He could only nod in agreement, and then glanced at Ye Qinglan, who was watching the show.
Ye Qinglan turned against Gu Xinian's army. The previous depression and annoyance were swept away, and the smile on his lips was sweet and pleasant.
Gu Xinian suddenly felt that the sweet smile was a bit dazzling, and said with a calm smile: "It's more exciting when there are more people writing poems, but just the two of us are too weak. How about this, the two cousins can also write poems together. If there are
Whoever wins the first place can choose a pot of all the orchids here and take it away, which is also an elegant and interesting thing. I wonder what the cousins think?"
That shallow smile almost made Ye Qingning and Ye Qingrou dazzled, and they nodded in agreement.
Ye Qinglan hurriedly declined and said: "Sixth sister and eighth sister can just write poems. I don't know how to write, so it's better not to be embarrassed."
Gu Xinian smiled slowly: "Cousin Lan is too self-effacing. Writing poetry is a matter of elegance, whether it is good or not is secondary. Cousin Ning, do you think so or not?"
Ye Qingning echoed without thinking: "My cousin said yes. Ten sisters, don't shirk it."
Ye Qingrou also smiled and said: "That's right, it's fun and lively when there are many people!"
…
The sex makes her stupid, and it's true! Whenever someone smiles casually, the two of them are eager to sell her as their cousin.
Ye Qinglan felt hateful in her heart, but she smiled shyly and cutely on her face: "If I don't do well, please don't laugh at me."
