Qi Zhiyuan looked up at the bare branches on the century-old tree and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Grandma Yin happened to pass by him, heard him sighing, and asked curiously.
Qi Zhiyuan told what happened. After hearing this, Aunt Yin was silent for a long time, and then she said quietly: "Didn't you say that Miss Gu's marriage is in the hands of little Gu? Then it is not that easy for Miss Gu to get married smoothly.
thing."
Qi Zhiyuan disagreed: "As long as the young master is here, Miss Gu can marry anyone she wants!"
"So, if the young master doesn't agree, won't Miss Gu not be able to marry?"
Aunt Yin's words made Qi Zhiyuan's eyes light up, and then Qi Zhiyuan shook his head and sighed: "Young master seems to want to marry Miss Gu as soon as possible."
"I remember that many years ago, His Majesty was afraid that the young master would be too involved with the Buddha, so he took the young master out of the Fallen Immortal Temple on his own initiative. The young master was only six years old at that time, right? While everyone was asleep, the young master actually walked back to the Fallen Immortal Temple overnight.
Immortal Temple." Grandma Yin fell into memories.
Qi Zhiyuan also remembered this incident. Everyone was frightened that time and thought they had lost the young master.
Your Majesty was also frightened by the young master. Later, he felt relieved when he learned that the young master had returned to the Fallen Immortal Temple.
"What did Nanny want to say?" Qi Zhiyuan didn't understand why Nanny Yin mentioned this old incident.
"If the young master likes something, he will try his best to get it no matter what method he uses or how much hardship he has to endure. From the eyes of an old man like me, the young master likes Miss Gu very much. If other men want to marry Miss Gu,
, I’m afraid the young master won’t agree easily…”
"But the young master chooses Miss Gu's lover by himself. The young master is eager to marry Miss Gu, so he doesn't necessarily like Miss Gu very much, right?" Qi Zhiyuan is not as optimistic as Aunt Yin.
"You don't understand this. I've been here before, and I've seen many more people than you. The young master treats Miss Gu absolutely differently from anyone else. Anyway, my old lady has been with the young master for twenty years, and this is the first time I've met her.
Young master cares about someone so much." After finishing speaking, Aunt Yin walked away happily.
Qi Zhiyuan thought carefully about what happened after the young master met Miss Gu, and felt that Mammy's words made sense.
From now on, I will see if the girl can get married smoothly...
That night, Xu Yanqing was tossing and turning.
As soon as he closed his eyes, Gu Xiyan's face would be swaying in front of him.
This was the first time in his life that he had suffered from insomnia, and it was because of a woman.
He even remembered clearly the scene when he first met Gu Xiyan.
That day he saw the scene of shopkeeper Wu of Jixiang Building personally greeting Gu Xiyan, and he felt it was very strange.
Speaking of which, he took the initiative to get to know Gu Xiyan because he became curious about Gu Xiyan.
Until now, he still doesn't know what the connection is between shopkeeper Wu and Gu Xiyan.
Every time he sees Gu Xiyan, Gu Xiyan always gives him some surprises. If he can get married with her, they will definitely live a happy life.
After thinking about it, Xu Yanqing finally felt sleepy.
At the same time, some people in Zhou Mansion could not sleep.
Zhou Mu vaguely noticed that he had suffered from insomnia a lot recently, and the person who caused him insomnia every time was the same person.
Really unable to sleep, he simply stood up and sat on the edge of the bed. He suddenly wanted to practice sword practice and vent his pent-up emotions.
But Qi Zhiyuan stayed outside and he went out to practice sword practice. Qi Zhiyuan would definitely have many questions to ask him.
Finally, he sat quietly on the bed and memorized the scriptures he had read today.
This method did have a hypnotic effect, but after he lay down and closed his eyes, the fact that Gu Xiyan was about to get married occupied all his thoughts.
Tossing and turning like this, Zhou Mu stayed up all night for the second time in his life.
The first time he stayed up all night was when he was six years old because he had to walk back to the Fallen Immortal Temple and couldn't sleep.
This time, I simply couldn't sleep and kept my eyes open until dawn.
Early that morning, Qi Zhiyuan went in to wait on him at the usual time when Zhou Mu would wake up. When he saw the young master who was still lying on the bed with his body stretched out, he thought he was dazzled for a moment.
He came in half an hour later than usual because there was no movement in the dormitory.
"Master?" Qi Zhiyuan called out cautiously.
After hearing this, Zhou Mu turned to look at Qi Zhiyuan. At this time, Qi Zhiyuan finally saw the dark circles under Zhou Mu's eyes. He gasped: "What's wrong, Master?"
Zhou Mu quietly opened her lips: "It's dawn."
Qi Zhiyuan thought to himself that it was already dawn, but why did the young master look like this?
"What's wrong with the master? Do you want Mr. Yuan to come and diagnose the master's pulse?" Qi Zhiyuan was worried that something was wrong with his master's health.
Zhou Mu sat up and got out of bed to get dressed as if nothing had happened: "I'm fine."
Qi Zhiyuan was waiting on the side to wash up, and occasionally glanced at the black and blue under the corners of Zhou Mu's eyes.
Could it be that the young master didn't sleep well last night?
But he has been serving the young master for so long, and he has never seen the young master have trouble sleeping. How could a man like the young master have an open mind and not pay attention to everything, so he could suffer from insomnia?
After washing up, Zhou Mu went to practice sword practice, then washed his hands and had breakfast. Everything seemed normal.
But even Aunt Yin found that the young master was a little depressed, probably because he didn't get a good rest last night.
"Zhiyuan, you enter the palace and destroy me, so that my father can decide my entry into the Household Department as soon as possible." Zhou Mu felt that he should get busy.
"My subordinate will go to the palace right now. Why don't you take a nap, sir?" Qi Zhiyuan said worriedly.
Zhou Mu nodded in agreement.
After Qi Zhiyuan left, Zhou Mu went back to the house and lay down.
It's just that I'm obviously tired and sleepy, but I still can't fall asleep.
Aunt Yin followed the dormitory at some point. Seeing Zhou Mu tossing and turning, she suddenly came up with a plan.
Perhaps the young master's insomnia has something to do with Miss Gu.
Miss Gu happened to be next door, so she sent a message to Min'er and asked Miss Gu to come, which might be able to relieve the young master's insomnia.
Gu Xiyan saw the note handed over by Min'er and learned that Zhou Mu was unwell, so she simply left the gate of the Hou Mansion without going to Zaohui Hall to say hello.
The concierge was a little surprised to see her leaving so early: "Is the girl going out again?"
Gu Xiyan just responded vaguely, and after making sure that the concierge hadn't followed her, she quickly entered Zhou's house next door.
Nanny Yin had already greeted her at the door. When she saw Gu Xiyan, she led her to Zhou Mu's bedroom: "Miss, go in quietly, the young master seemed to be falling asleep just now."
"If the young master has already gone to bed, I can't come in and disturb you." Gu Xiyan felt that it was very impolite for her to enter Zhou Mu's bedroom without permission.
"Young master is usually served by Zhiyuan. He didn't have a good rest yesterday, and I have other things to do. Can you please help me to wait on you nearby? In case the master wakes up and there is no one to wait on you." Aunt Yin looked at Gu eagerly.
Evening face.
Looking at her with such eyes, Gu Xiyan couldn't say no.
Grandma Yin saw that this girl was soft-hearted, so she took the opportunity to say something nice again, and then gently pushed the girl into the bedroom.
