Chapter 43: Invitations
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Su Qingwan's mouth when she heard this, and there was a hint of sigh in her voice, "Although I like it, I haven't seen snow in such a peaceful state of mind for a long time." As he spoke, the speed at which the snowflakes fell gradually slowed down, and the scene outside the house became clearer. Su Qingwan looked up at the window fixedly, and did not move for a long time.
Gu Shaoting looked at her thin back, and also cast his eyes out the window, "If you think it's a pity, I know a good place to enjoy the snow." When I'm done with these two days, I'll take you to see it. ”
Su Qingwan's gaze stopped in the distance, and nodded obediently, "Okay." After speaking, he still didn't move, Gu Shaoting waited for a while, and finally reached out and closed the window. His voice was calm and could not be refused, "You are not well, don't suffer from the cold anymore." ”
The sound of the window knocking on the edge of the window made Su Qingwan stunned, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and immediately turned to look at him. Gu Shaoting raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw her movements, with a smile in his eyes.
"Yesterday, Su Fu sent an invitation. Su Qingwan looked up at him, his tone was calm, but his brows furrowed involuntarily, "The date is set, it's next week." ”
Gu Shaoting looked at her quietly for a long time, and the smile in his eyes faded, "It's always a matter of time." Su Qingwan nodded unconsciously in agreement, thought about it and then raised his head and asked him, "Second Master has been busy lately?"
Gu Shaoting thought seriously for a while before answering, "Busy." Su Qingwan raised her hand to tighten her coat after hearing this, and a trace of sadness could not help but hang on her eyebrows. Gu Shaoting reached out and half-wrapped his arms around her shoulders and led her to sit down by the fire, "But next week's wedding banquet ......" he chuckled, as if he was in a good mood, "Naturally, I want to accompany you." ”
The temperature next to the fire was appropriate, warm and comfortable, Su Qingwan was too close, and her cheeks were faintly red.
The first snow of the winter stopped not long after, and the next day there was still some snow on the roof of the house, but the place was no longer white, but the temperature was even lower.
In the study room on the second floor, Zhou Ji held a copy of the text in his hand, and quickly raised his eyes to look at the person behind the desk who closed his eyes and recuperated, and his voice was a little cautious, "Second master, the general may come to Shanghai next week." Gu Shaoting closed his eyes and responded, disapproving, "Su Li's two families are married, and he naturally has to be present." As he spoke, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and tired, "However, the old man may have heard some wind when he came this time." ”
Zhou Yong immediately understood, and couldn't help frowning slightly, "What does the second master mean...... Miss Su?" Gu Shaoting was silent for a moment, slowly stood up, and his voice was calm, "It's still the same sentence, no matter what happens, her safety will always come first." ”
"Yes, second master, rest assured. Zhou Yong bowed his head and solemnly responded.
The room fell silent, but a long time passed, but Zhou Ji still remained in place. Gu Shaoting looked at him sideways, reached out and picked up the text on the desk and turned the page, his face calm, "If you have something to say, just say it." Zhou Yong glanced at Gu Shaoting hesitantly, and his voice gradually lowered, "Second master, the general ...... this time It seems that I want to bring the sixth aunt over. ”
Gu Shaoting flipped through the paper for a moment, and the atmosphere was obviously tense. In a moment's effort, Wen Jiàn fell on the table with a snap, and Gu Shaoting sneered, "That's wonderful." Zhou Yong lowered his head and didn't dare to answer.
"Now that she is coming, you have to guard against her in everything. Gu Shaoting squinted, and the bottom of his eyes was slightly sharper, "After all, my sixth aunt's ambition is not small." "It's just that the general is afraid that it will be difficult to deal with ......," Zhou Yu cautiously reminded. Gu Shaoting shook his head, "The old man has a bottom line, and the only person he really believes in is himself." As he spoke, he turned around and leaned on the desk to glance at Zhou Yong, then withdrew his gaze, his tone was slow and slightly cold, "Women are never worthless to him." Not to mention a dangerous woman. Zhou Yong nodded, his expression thoughtful. Gu Shaoting waved his hand at him lightly and motioned for him to step back.
Zhou Yong saluted and was about to go out, Gu Shaoting turned around and saw Wen Jiàn scattered on the desk, and suddenly called Zhou Yong, who was about to go out, "By the way, you have taken the time to go to Zhouzhuang in person in the past two days." Zhou Yong turned around, suspecting that he had misheard, "What the second master said...... Zhou Zhuang?"
"Yes, Zhou Zhuang. Gu Shaoting nodded, seeing Zhou Yong's rare surprised expression, his face finally softened, "Arrange everything that should be arranged, I may have to go back to live for a few days in the near future." "Zhou Yongxiang hasn't come back to his senses yet," ...... Be. ”
When Gu Shaoting came to him, he specially instructed, "Arrange a room for Miss Su." Hearing this, Zhou Yong glanced at Gu Shaoting, and then nodded calmly.
Noon is slowly approaching, and the first floor is busy.
Zhang's mother ordered the dishes for noon, and then turned around and walked out of the kitchen. When I arrived at the staircase, I met Zhou Yong walking down from the second floor, and saw Zhang's mother Zhou Yong hurrying a few steps, "Zhang's mother, follow me to Zhouzhuang after a few ****." ”
Mama Zhang turned her head to look at him, also with a surprised expression, "...... Zhou Zhuang?" she said and looked up in the direction of the second floor, her expression slightly solemn, "Since the eldest lady left, the second master hasn't been back for many years." This time it's ......"
Zhou Yong shook his head slightly, and after a while, he continued, "You remember to prepare some things that Miss Su usually uses to bring over." Pick another color and style of clothes she likes, I guess I can use them. Zhang's mother was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly added joy, and the tail notes were raised, "The second master is going with Miss Su?" and looked at Zhou Yong as if he had acquiesced, and the joy on Zhang's mother's face was even more obvious, "I know that our second master really likes Miss Su." ”
Zhang's mother was a little excited, and her eyes lit up, "Also, Miss Su has such a good appearance, and it is rare to be an understanding person, and she is really likable." Just said that his voice was lowered, "If the eldest lady has a spirit in the sky, she will definitely like her in her heart." ”
Zhou Yong finally frowned when he heard this, he looked around, and his voice was slightly lower with a bit of warning, "Mother Zhang, don't say anything superfluous." ”
Zhang's mother lowered her head and secretly wiped a handful of tears, and her face was already full of smiles.
"I understand, I understand. ”
