Chapter 64: New Year

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Gu Mansion held a grand banquet, and the protagonists of the banquet were naturally Gu Manting and the fourth aunt, mother and daughter, while the others became foils.

Gu Yitang and Gu Qinghe, who are not favorites, are not even foils, they sit in the corner and chat about their heavens, and what happened at the banquet has nothing to do with them.

Even they didn't participate in the Gu Mansion's traditional talent show, and Gu Manting already regarded them as outcasts, so he didn't care about them, so naturally he didn't pursue them.

The brother and sister retired from the banquet early and went to the Orchid Garden together, drinking the spirits brewed by the Yanhui Building according to the distillation process provided by Gu Qinghe, eating side dishes, and having a good time.

This wine has not yet been on the market, so Gu Yitang has never drunk it, and when he drank a few glasses, he was a little drunk.

When people are drunk, their hearts are the most sensitive and fragile, so Gu Yitang was a little sentimental when he drank a few glasses of wine.

"Qinghe, I never thought that one day we would drink wine in Lanyuan so chicly, it would be nice if my mother was here. Gu Yitang's eyes were red.

Gu Yitang is just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, and it is understandable that he misses his mother when he is drunk.

Gu Qinghe was infected by Gu Yitang, and there were many parts about Xiao Ruolan in her memory.

Xiao Ruolan in her memory has a beautiful appearance, a soft voice, and warm hands. Xiao Ruolan's words are so beautiful and warm, which makes the original Gu Qinghe never forget.

"Mother has always been. Gu Qinghe comforted, "In our hearts." ”

Gu Yitang smiled bitterly: "You're right. Mother, it has always been in our hearts. ”

On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Gu Yitang was drunk and unconscious, and his subordinates carried him back to the room.

Gu Qinghe sent Gu Yitang away, and she stood alone under the dead tree in Orchid Garden for a long time, until Hongdou couldn't help but call her to come back to her senses from her distant thoughts.

Hongdou was a little worried about Gu Qinghe, so he asked, "Miss, who are you thinking about?"

Gu Qinghe didn't say anything with a smile, just shook his head.

The next day, with the sound of firecrackers all over the city, the new year finally ushered in the first rays of morning light.

Gu Qinghe put on festive clothes under the nagging of red beans, and combed two cute buns, the whole person looked a lot less cold and sharp, and it was a little bit cute of a girl.

Hongdou looked at Gu Qinghe, who had just been dressed up by herself, and her eyes couldn't be bigger: "Miss, you are really, so good-looking." ”

Hongdou has never read any books, and the word "good-looking" is the most used to describe a person's appearance.

Gu Qinghe's dress can be described as unprecedented, in the past, she only wore plain clothes, but today's dress has a rare addition to some gorgeous red.

In the round with Gu Yitang in Orchid Garden, Gu Yitang was also surprised, but there was more appreciation in his eyes.

Gu Yitang smiled: "Girls should wear like this, red beans, I should reward you." ”

Gu Qinghe didn't care about the surprise of others at all, but said proudly: "What kind of clothes can't be controlled by this girl?"

When Gu Qinghe said this, he deliberately raised his chin, and his tone was also a mouthful, which immediately caused Gu Yitang and Hongdou to laugh.

The master and servant made a joke, and then got up and left the Gu Mansion.

They first went to the Qingxian Teahouse to greet Su Changqing, and when they went, Su Changqing was watching the people in the backyard count the ten miles of incense.

This Shili Xiang is a spirit distilled according to the distillation technology provided by Gu Qinghe, because of the strong aroma and the fragrance of ten miles, so it is named Shili Xiang.

Su Changqing stood under the eaves, quietly and attentively watching the people quietly come out, and a wisp of white mist was raised in the air between his breaths, adding a bit of illusory beauty to his face.

Su Changqing heard the footsteps, looked sideways, and saw that it was Gu Qinghe and his party, and a gentle and elegant smile suddenly unfolded on his face, which can be described as a country and a city.

"Came over so early?" Su Changqing handed the ledger in his hand to Xiang Zuo, and he greeted him, "The ten miles of incense you want are ready, and you can take it at any time." ”

"I'm sorry for you. Gu Qinghe thanked him and gave him the New Year's gift he had prepared, "This is a New Year's gift for you, I wish you good health and prosperity in the new year." ”

Su Changqing's smile deepened and he took the gift: "Thank you, but I'm really curious about what gift you will give me." ”

Gu Yitang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Anyway, I can't understand it." ”

Su Changqing opened the box and saw a stack of sketches inside.

Gu Qinghe explained: "It's just some gadgets that will be used in life, and this time I will provide it as a friend." ”

These things, for Gu Qinghe, are just a pair of waste paper, and Su Changqing, or for Yan Huilou, is a priceless good thing.

Su Changqing closed the box: "Thank you." ”

Gu Qinghe and his entourage sat for tea time in the Qingxian Teahouse, and waited for the next person to move Shili Xiang into the carriage, and they got up to say goodbye.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I am going to the courtyard to spend with the members, and these forty altars of ten miles of incense are New Year's gifts.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Qin Fengmian had already led everyone to dress up the courtyard, and a group of people were holding scissors to cut the word Fu in the courtyard, as if they were comparing who cut the best, so the whole courtyard was lively, you and I were arguing sentence by sentence, like a market.

When Gu Qinghe arrived, Feng Million also happened to arrive, and the two stood at the door and watched the scene in the courtyard.

"Senior Feng, have you ever regretted joining the Red Shadow?" asked Qing He.

Feng Million smiled: "I have lived half my life, and this is one of the most correct decisions I have made." Qinghe, it's not that I'm hypocritical, since my wife and daughter were killed by the enemy, I didn't feel at home again until I joined the Red Shadow. ”

Gu Qinghe's heart warmed slightly, isn't it just this kind of corps she wants.

Privately, the Corps is home, there is no distinction between upper and lower, and outside, the Corps is an invincible weapon.

Gu Qinghe and the three of them stayed in the courtyard for a whole day, and they didn't return to Gu's mansion until the evening.

Gu Yitang was already very familiar with the people in the Corps, and he was a little reluctant to leave and wanted to continue drinking, but in the past few years by the prince's side, the best thing he learned was self-discipline.

What's more, he didn't worry about Gu Qinghe and Hongdou going back alone.

Caring about a person is, even if she is a hundred times more powerful than himself, even if she is invincible in the world, he will worry about her comfort.

Gu Qinghe returned to Orchid Garden, walked in the dimly lit path, and suddenly leaned out from under the rockery and grabbed Gu Qinghe's arm.

Gu Qinghe's originally somewhat confused nerves suddenly sobered up, and while dodging sideways, he grabbed the wrist of that hand, then turned up and twisted the wrist to the wrong bone, and then dragged the person out, knocking him to the ground with a sweeping leg, and she knelt on the other party's back with one leg and clasped the other party's hand.

Gu Qinghe asked coldly: "Who are you?!"
