Chapter Eighty-Five: The Gathering

Mrs. Lu was secretly happy in her heart, as long as Aunt Xiang was willing to agree to talk to Xiao Donghai, and Xiao Jiangbei turned his face with Gu Qiluo again, then this matter would be half the story.

She felt extremely comfortable in her heart, but she still looked bitter on her face, shook her head and said, "How could I not know that this matter has disgraced both of us?" It's just that I've been forced to this point, there's really no way, I haven't dared to tell our lord yet, otherwise I don't know what he thinks of me, speaking of which, I can only say this to my aunt, everyone thinks that we are the women in charge of the house, but in fact, who knows the difficulties? Just like me now, although it is for the sake of the master, but in the future, not only will he not accept my affection, but he will probably complain about me, anyway, their men are wise, only we women have long hair and short knowledge, and they specialize in bad things. ”

Her words resonated with Aunt Xiang, Mrs. Lu is also the wife of the family, but she is just an aunt, although she has been in charge of the house all these years, only she knows the torment inside, because her face is more harmonious, the two of them said a few more gossips, Mrs. Lu said goodbye and left, leaving only Aunt Xiang thinking about this matter there, and did not fall asleep until the second half of the night.

The next day I got up late, fortunately this is in the villa, but no one cares, only Aunt Xiang herself feels bad, so she didn't go out, until lunchtime, Fang went to the dining room to entertain the Gu family's daughters, after dinner, everyone got together and talked freely, outside the door there were people who reported that there were other mountain villas of the ladies over, most of them were nobler than Aunt Xiang Mrs. Lu, the two of them were busy to pick up in person, and then they saw more people, and some of the houses could not be turned. Aunt Xiang led people to the back garden.

April in the world is full of flowers. It's the middle of April, and the peach and apricot trees in the garden have long since disappeared, and the trees are full of green new leaves. It is a cyan fruit the size of a little finger belly.

Gu Qingfeng took the two small green fruits from the little girl's hand, stuffed them into his mouth without saying anything, only chewed two bites, and his little face wrinkled into a bun, spit it out, and looked at the little girl with grief and said, "It's not delicious at all." ”

"Isn't it delicious?" The little guy smiled: "The slave said, the little master still has to." How is it? Astringent, right? ”

Gu Qingfeng looked up at the big tree, gritted his teeth and said, "Apricots are obviously delicious, why are they so unpalatable at this time?" I don't believe it. I'm going to go up and pick two ...... myself."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice behind him: "You have a good ability, and you still go up and pick it yourself?" At this time, the insects on the trees are about to come out, and if there is such a hurry, it has already come out. Does it hurt to bite you? ”

Gu Qingfeng turned his head to look. Seeing that Gu Lanxuan didn't know when he came behind him, he pulled his sister's sleeve and said, "Obviously, apricots are delicious." ”

"That's not what you eat right now, the ones you eat are all yellow apricots, they are ripe, and the green apricots are not ripe, sour and astringent, not to mention the little apricots that just emerged, you are really a grain indistinguishable."

Gu Lanxuan gently knocked her brother's little head with a fan: Old Master Gu is old. Therefore, she loves this child very much, and Mrs. Lu likes to show it to others. Therefore, Gu Qingfeng can be said to be pampered, and Aunt Zhuang does not allow him to go to the garden to play alone. My wife also has a son, even if she is kind on the surface, who knows what she thinks in her heart? If something happens in the garden, who will you cry to? Therefore, when Gu Qingfeng was six years old, he hadn't even eaten green apricots.

"Let's go, I'll take you to my aunt's."

Gu Lanxuan pulled Gu Qingfeng to sit down next to Aunt Zhuang, and couldn't help but look at the table next to her, where there were six or seven people sitting at the table. There are An Qingbo's wife, there are also the wife of Pingguo Hou Shizi, and the daughter-in-law of the cabinet scholar Huang Daxue, all of whom are the daughters of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, with the status of Mrs. Lu and Aunt Xiang, they ask to see these ladies on weekdays, and they are afraid that they will not be able to find the door, but at this time they are condescending and talking and laughing with Aunt Xiang.

Still unwilling to give up?

Gu Lanxuan sighed softly, she naturally knew what these ladies thought, although Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo were constantly rumored, everyone finally knew that this pair of men and women had no rules, so when everyone saw that there was no hope, they all dispelled their thoughts in their hearts, and no longer fantasized about anything about snatching love.

Who knew that the ground was making waves, and the atom was suddenly killed halfway through, such a bastard, and because of him, although the Gu family was exhausted by the toss, the Xiao family also lost face, which is bearable, and the Xiao family is not a clay man, and they are still willing to keep the marriage contract after being like this? So these people couldn't help but be a little nervous in their hearts, and their daughters were probably also pleading intentionally or unintentionally, so as soon as they heard that Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo were at loggerheads, wouldn't this be another swarm of bees?

Of course. These are not precious people here today, even if the real nobles are eager in their hearts, they still have to put the score, it is impossible to come lightly, they can only think of it from other places, there is no way, since they want to have a face, then they have to use their brains again, and the effect is not necessarily comparable to these women who are willing to pull down their faces.

Gu Lanxuan was thinking about the mess in her heart, and suddenly heard Gu Qingfeng beside her say, "Sister, why didn't the eldest sister come over?" You see a lot of sisters over there, don't you and your big sister like to be lively on weekdays? ”

"The eldest sister has to take care of her grandmother in the house, and she has to take care of the business, so she is busy." Gu Lanxuan touched Gu Qingfeng's little head, looked at the girls who were strolling among the flowers more than a dozen steps away, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

If most of the noble ladies still hold their own identities and refuse to hand them over, those girls don't have such scruples, as long as they deliberately have a good relationship with the Xiao family sisters, they can come over to play in a grand manner. Gu Lanxuan secretly pondered: I'm afraid that the valuable girls in the surrounding villas have all gathered at this time, as for the reason, it is naturally because Xiao Jiangbei will return to the villa today.

"The flowers in this garden are blooming so well, in the end, it is the villa of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the people take care of it carefully." Mrs. Hou Shizi of Pingguo took a sip of tea and said with a smile, which attracted a chorus of echoes. It's just that after this topic is over, everyone looks at me and I look at you, but I don't know what to say.

Mrs. Lu shouted into the flowers: "Xiu'er, you brought your fourth sister over to watch the sun shine." ”

When she shouted, the others called their daughters over, and the girls all hula into the pavilion, almost filling a pavilion that was not too small.

The girls were busy laying mats on the stone railing, and the girls sat down one after another, and Aunt Xiang smiled and said, "I saw you talking and laughing from afar, but what are you so happy about?" Tell us about it, too. ”

Xiao Jingshu hurriedly said: "We said that my second brother, auntie, how can you say that the second brother is so powerful?" Two tigers, or killed at once, could it be two little tigers? If it's a big tiger, I can't imagine it. ”

Aunt Xiang smiled, wiped her forehead with a handkerchief, shook her head and said, "You are still happy, I don't know if my legs are weak after hearing this letter, if there is a mistake, how can I explain to the old lady?" Your brother is so reckless that I will reprimand him when I come back. ”

Several noble ladies pursed the corners of their lips slightly, and secretly said You reprimanded him? What arrogance, what is your identity? It's just an aunt who accompanies the girl to rise, although Xiao Qianhu is young, but he is your master, why do you reprimand him? Who gave you the guts? Hehe! It's just to let us know that you have a status in the Xiao Mansion, so there's no need to say such inconsiderate words.

Aunt Xiang really just cares about chaos, and has no intention of showing off to others, she has been in power in Xiao Mansion for so many years, relying on a cautious person, never being greedy and delusional, and always putting her position very correctly. Therefore, after saying this, she herself sensed that something was wrong, and when she looked at the faces of the people around her, she was even more embarrassed, and quietly swallowed back what she was going to say.

The warm atmosphere was a little cold in an instant, and Mrs. Lu was eager to have a good relationship with Aunt Xiang, so she hurriedly smiled at this time: "That kid in Jiangbei has great achievements, this leg and foot kung fu is naturally good, and killing two tigers is nothing, when he went to our house to celebrate his birthday, didn't he bring a white tiger skin to the old lady?" ”

Gu Jinxiu smiled and said: "No, grandmother likes that tiger skin very much, and she praised Brother Xiao in private, only saying that he is good at kung fu, so he must be like a bamboo on the battlefield." ”

Aunt Xiang glanced at Gu Jinxiu without a trace, and when she saw her sitting there upright, she remembered what Mrs. Lu said to herself last night, and secretly said to herself: I didn't pay attention to it before, but now it seems that this third girl is also stable. It's just that our second young master may not like it, but if the master thinks about Lord Gu, I'm afraid he will agree.

Thinking about it like this, she paid more and more attention, and suddenly heard a faint cheer in the distance, so she called Biyu beside her and said, "Go to the front yard to see, what's going on?" What kind of system is such a noisy noise? ”

Biyu smiled: "There is nothing else, eighty percent of the second master came back and brought so many prey, so it caused people to scream and cheer." After saying that, he walked away, and came back after a while to report: "The slave is right, sure enough, the prey has been carried back, but the second master met a friend on the road, so he delayed and let people send the prey back first, but the second master will not be able to come back until a while." ”

Aunt Xiang was a little surprised, and secretly said that Xiao Jiangbei still has friends? I haven't heard of that. Suddenly, Mrs. Lu next to her smiled: "In this case, it is better to bring the tiger here, I haven't seen the real tiger yet, and now I will open my eyes thanks to the blessing of Jiangbei."
