This New Year, it's been quite lively. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is less Shen who "recuperates" and Gu Jinyan, who is far away in Puji Temple. When eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Gu Wanning was left alone in the second room.

Mrs. Tai looked at Gu Wanning, who was alone, and felt a little sad in her heart, but she covered it up very well and didn't show it at all.

Because of the feeling of touching the scene, Mrs. Tai felt a little unwell that night.

Throughout the New Year, Mrs. Tai recuperated in Zhenghe Hall.

Gu Guanning didn't have the heart to leave the house, so he only went to Puji Temple to visit Gu Jinyan on the third day of the New Year, and accompanied Mrs. Tai in Zhenghe Hall the rest of the day.

As soon as the house came and went, it was all brought forward by the Wu family.

While Wu was happy, he was inevitably in a hurry.

There are too many guests coming and going in the house, and in previous years, the Shen family came forward to greet and entertain, and her eyes were hot. Now it's her turn to know how busy it is. The Wu family had to call the Shang clan to help greet them.

The biggest advantage of the Fang family is that he never steals the limelight, and follows the Wu family every day, helping to greet the female relatives who come to visit the New Year.

With Fang's help, the Wu clan breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Time flickered, and soon it was the Shangyuan Festival.

Every year when it comes to the Shangyuan Festival, the mansions of the nobles will hang lanterns and be lively. Dingbei Hou Mansion is no exception. Early in the morning, the maids and women in each courtyard happily took out the lanterns they had prepared and hung them.

The big and small maids in Yiliu Courtyard are all ingenious, and the lanterns they make are also very exquisite.

Yingluo made a beauty lantern this year, the lantern depicts a slender girl, the girl also carries the lantern in her hand, as if she heard the movement behind her, slightly turned her head, revealing a beautiful and bright side face, and the corners of her lips are slightly upturned.

It is clearly Gu Guanning's appearance.

After Linglong saw it, she was amazed: "Yingluo, I didn't expect you to have such painting skills, it's just lifelike." ”

Yingluo's eyes were not hidden, and her mouth was not modest: "Of course." I learned to make up since I was a child, and in order to hone my skills, I practiced painting. ”

As he spoke, he hung the beauty lamp under the eaves of the porch.

Gu Wanning walked over and couldn't help laughing when he saw this beauty lantern: "Yingluo, how dare you paint me on the lantern without my permission." ”

Yingluo smiled a little weakly: "The slave maid was also impulsive, and she had this idea, so she made this lantern with her own hands." Please also Miss don't blame. ”

Gu Wanning pursed his lips and smiled: "That's it, I'll let you hang up for a day." After today, put away the lanterns. ”

Yingluo breathed a sigh of relief and responded with a smile.

Linlang came over with brisk steps: "Miss, the slave maid has already instructed Liuli Coral to wait at the gatehouse, and when the guests come, let them lead the guests into Yiliu Courtyard." ”

"The pearls for today's hospitality have all been prepared. Steward Gu also sent the eight snacks that the young lady wanted. The flower hall was also cleaned up and arranged, and there were four charcoal pots, which were warm. ”

Methodically report them one by one.

Gu Wanning hummed with satisfaction.

It's winter, and there are very few fresh fruits and melons. Gu Wanning simply asked Gu Song to buy all kinds of snacks, such as all kinds of preserved fruits and meat, and asked Pearl to prepare six kinds of snacks and a white fungus red date soup.

Today's guests are all young girls of the same age. There are almost no girls of this age who don't like to eat snacks. Preparing these should also be to everyone's taste.

……

Luo Zhixuan was the first to come.

Entering the warm flower hall, taking off her thick cloak, Luo Zhixuan, who was wearing a goose yellow silk jacket and green long skirt, was radiant and particularly beautiful.

Luo Zhixuan's eyes swept and suddenly fell on snacks and pastries. He refused to look away.

Gu Wanning was amused by her gluttony, and deliberately said seriously: "I don't know if these are ready to entertain guests today, and I don't know if it suits everyone's taste." It's better to ask Sister Luo to taste one or two for me first, if you think which one tastes bad, you can also replace it before a few of them come. ”

Luo Zhixuan immediately agreed: "We sisters, we should help this little favor." ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward, picked up a piece of pastry, and "tasted" it with relish.

Linlang and Linglong both couldn't help but laugh.

Luo Zhixuan's two personal maids were also accustomed to Luo Zhixuan's straightforward temperament, and each twisted their heads to the side and snickered.

After a while, Cui Junyao also came.

Gu Wanning stepped forward with a smile, and affectionately took Cui Junyao's hand and said, "Sister Cui is here." I've been looking forward to Sister Cui since early in the morning. ”

Cui Junyao smiled slightly, and held Gu Wanning's hand with her backhand: "I haven't seen you for more than half a month, Sister Gu seems to have grown a little taller." ”

Cui Junyao also deliberately dressed up today.

She is slender, beautiful and elegant, wearing a rouge silk jacket and autumn fragrance skirt, her eyes are as clear as water, and her lips are full of smiles, which is pleasing to the eye.

Gu Wanning and Cui Junyao talked back and forth, looking particularly intimate and warm.

Luo Zhixuan's big dripping eyes rolled around, as if she had noticed something, and she was not interested in eating pastries anymore, so she came over with a smile: "Look at the two of you, it's as good as one person." ”

Luo Zhixuan looked at the giggles, but she was actually very sharp-minded.

Gu Wanning had expected that he would not be able to hide it from her. In fact, as long as Gu Jinxing comes to show up later, everyone will know what is going on.

However, in front of Cui Junyao, Gu Wanning couldn't say anything, and winked at Luo Zhixuan with a smile: "Sister Cui and I want to be good, are you jealous?" Don't worry, in my heart, you are still the first." ”

Luo Zhixuan nodded unceremoniously: "Of course." ”

Cui Junyao was amused and laughed.

After a while, Lin Ruxue and Fu Yan also came.

Gu Wanning instructed Linlang: "You go and send a message to the eldest sister, just say that several distinguished guests have arrived, and invite her to come over and join in the fun." ”

In the past, Gu Guanning and Cui Lin and others came and went, but Gu Guanhua's identity was slightly lower and he couldn't integrate into this circle. Now that Mrs. Tai wants to lift the long house, Gu Guanning will naturally not object, and she is willing to bring Gu Guanhua with her.

This subtle change, of course, can't be hidden from Fu Yan and others.

Fu Yan's eyes flashed, and she smiled and said tentatively: "You sisters are closer and more harmonious than before. ”

Gu Wanning smiled calmly: "Our Gu family is not prosperous, and there are only five sisters in the three rooms, and cousins are no different from sisters." ”

As soon as Fu Yan tried it slightly, she heard what Gu Wanning meant, and she didn't talk anymore, and opened the topic with interest.

After a while, Gu Guanhua came over.

came with Gu Guanhua, as well as Gu Jinxing.
