Chapter 13 Invitations
Since Gu Yao left, Gu Yuan's small courtyard was clean again, and Mrs. Gu never called her over, as if nothing happened to the Lu Mansion at all, everything seemed to be back to the past. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Chen Yuan was still very worried: "Sister-in-law, isn't the eldest lady annoyed that she refuses to see you again?" ”
Gu Yuan flipped through a page of the book, smiled, and did not answer. Mrs. Gu is afraid that she is busy dealing with the copper well in Lou County, the copper well was originally discovered by the Gu family, but after being known by the Zhu family, she forcibly took a piece of the pie and became a joint business, but there were repeated conflicts, so no matter how good this copper well is, it is also a chicken rib for the Gu family, so Gu Yuan said that dedicating the copper well is a two-way strategy.
In this way, it can be regarded as helping the Gu family, so that the Gu family can get a good job in front of the nobles without relying too much on the Lu family, Gu Yuan doesn't want to help the Gu family, but if she doesn't show a few points now, I'm afraid that she will soon be dismissed by Mrs. Gu as a useless person. It's a pity that the Gu family doesn't know that getting the blue eyes of that noble person may not be a good thing. Thinking of this, Gu Yuan sneered and shook his head, still idly flipping through the scrolls.
Gu Yuan's purity didn't last long, and within two days, she received a post. The handwriting on the expensive snow-white hemp paper is beautiful: "Tomorrow and evening, on the bank of the Songling River, cook wine to meet elegantly, and hope that Ayuan will go in person." "The latter is Zhang Jiaqilang.
Zhang Qilang? Gu Yuan frowned and thought about it for a long time, but he had a vague impression of such a person, the outstanding family Langjun of Wu County was naturally like Lu Jin and Gu Tong, the Langjun of the Zhu family and the Zhang family were always a little different, and Gu Yuan was the Gu family who gave Feng Wenqi in his previous life, and he was inevitably unfamiliar with this Zhang Qilang.
But why did he post to Gu Yuan, if there was really an intersection, it was just a hurried meeting on the Yutai of Lufu last time.
Seeing that she frowned, looked at the post, and the maid who sent the post said: "This post is also available to Aunt Yao and Aunt Yun, and the eldest lady has ordered, let the sister-in-law just follow the two sisters-in-law." "Say goodbye and quit.
On the evening of the second day, as twilight fell, Gu Yun and Gu Yao had already dressed up and packed up, and they didn't see Gu Yuan in front of the mansion.
"I'm afraid that the broken household will not dare to go because he knows his lowly status," Although Gu Yun was grounded for a few days, she still looked disgusted and contemptuous when she talked about Gu Yuan, "It was A-Niang who had to take her there before, but this time I will see if she can have the face to go again." ”
Gu Yao remembered that she had a few conversations with Gu Yuan before, but she felt that this sister-in-law was not a simple person, and she claimed to be able to predict good and bad fortunes, but such a person still made her a little jealous.
"Let's go," Gu Yun threw down the curtain and instructed the maidservant, "Don't let that broken settlement delay our trip to Songling Yahui." "The ox cart creaked and creaked.
The Songling River goes around Wu County, the scenery of the winding riverside is leisurely and quiet, the light green velvety water light is more quiet in the newborn night, the clear water is slight, and the little quicksilver is broken. Just in the deepest part of the green willows, a painting boat with lights hanging high and singing and dancing is docked by the river.
Gu Yun and Gu Yao held the hand of the maid and walked carefully along the river bank towards the painting boat, raised their eyes and looked at the painting boat, Gu Yun seemed to be disdainful: "Zhang Jia Qilang is still so vulgar, every time the banquet is to call Kabuki to make a noise, according to me, it is better to invite all the Langjun to come and talk quietly." ”
Gu Yao smiled: "Let's go, I'm afraid they are all waiting." ”
On the painting boat, there were already a lot of Lang Jun's sisters-in-law sitting on it, Zhu Jing and several sisters-in-law of the Zhang family sat together talking and laughing, and several sisters-in-law of the Lu family were also sitting on the side, and Lu Xiu was also among them.
Seeing Lu Xiu, Gu Yundeng's face turned red, and her steps were much slower when she lowered her head, but Gu Yao pulled her over and said to Lu Xiu with a smile: "Ah Xiu is fine, is your body okay?" ”
Before Lu Xiu could speak, Zhu Jing had already giggled and preemptively said, "Ah Yun is also here, aren't you grounded, why are you embarrassed to come?" ”
Gu Yun's face was already flushed, and she was pulled by Gu Yao to sit on the couch, holding back her anger and not arguing with Zhu Jing.
Lu Xiu had an ordinary look, just looked around, as if he was looking for someone, and after looking at it for a while, he said to Gu Yao: "Why don't you see that Aunt Yuan?" Didn't you say that I also sent a post to her today, and she didn't come? ”
Gu Yao shook her head: "Ah Yun and I left first, and I never saw her." ”
Zhu Jing glanced at Gu Yun and smiled and played a fan: "Speaking of this sister-in-law Yuan, she is really a wonderful person, she said that day that she would get into trouble if she saw Ah Yun, but she was not right." She covered her mouth with a fan and smiled heartily, "It seems that she can really predict good and bad." ”
The sister-in-law of the Zhang family took the mouth at this time: "No, even my aunt asked her when she came back that day, which is really a bit strange." ”
Lu Xiu tilted her head: "I thought that this sister-in-law had a good demeanor that day, which was unforgettable at first sight, and it would be interesting to think about it if I could interact with her." ”
As he was talking, he listened to the maids and maids: "Lu Dalangjun and Gu Dalangjun have arrived." For a moment, the sisters-in-law stopped talking and looked towards the door.
Lu Jin strode in in a colored robe, and behind him was Gu Tongzhi, dressed in a dark blue large-sleeved robe, and also stepped into the painting boat.
Zhang Qilang, the master of the Yahui, greeted him with a smile, invited the two of them to sit down on the couch, and instructed the maid to serve wine: "I have newly obtained fine wine and Kabuki, so I have set up this Yahui and invite you to come." ”
Lu Jin didn't speak, but just took the ear cup held by the maid and pecked it and put it on the desk. His gaze inadvertently swept over the sisters-in-law sitting opposite, paused and moved away. It's just that he didn't know that this pause was teaching Gu Yun to blush and her heart beat, and she could feel that Lu Jin seemed to be looking at her.
Gu Tongzhi's temperament was not as cold as Lu Jin, he said with a smile: "It's still Qilang who will enjoy it, every time I can find a beautiful wine and a beautiful woman, it will open our eyes." ”
Zhang Qilang raised his head and laughed: "If Brother Gu can look at it, just bring this fine wine!" He smiled a little, but approached Gu Tong, "Speaking of beauty, why don't you see the sister-in-law in Brother Gu's mansion, I deliberately asked someone to post with her." ”
Gu Tongzhi frowned, he was the clan sister again, he didn't look down on a wine bag and rice bag like Zhang Qilang, but Gu Yuan was just a daughter next to the Gu family, and his lowly status was not worth his attention. He put down the ear cup and snorted: "Shichiro has taken a fancy to her?" ”
Zhang Qilang was rare and nodded: "I saw my sister-in-law's demeanor that day, and I liked it very much, if I can be included in the house, I will definitely cherish it more." He wanted to accept Gu Yuan as a concubine, and as far as Gu Yuan's identity was concerned, he still promoted Gu Yuan for the sake of the Gu family.
Gu Tongzhi was noncommittal, but said: "I don't always ask about the inner house, if Qilang is interested, let people say it." "It's no objection.
Zhang Qilang was overjoyed and was about to open his mouth to thank him, but he heard the maid say loudly: "Gu Jiayuan's sister-in-law has arrived." ”
