Chapter 11: A Look Through the Curtain of Cherry Blossoms (5)

Ziheng looked at her deeply, and his low voice was a little hoarse: "Yes." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

He was such a cunning man, and that was something that really surprised Ai. She enjoys the increasingly fun atmosphere and is reluctant to be the underdog in this matchup.

She became distressed.

"I admit I'm guts enough, are you guts enough?" He tilted the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile that seemed to her to be implicitly defiant.

Aizhen smiled quietly, but stared at him and said, "Anyway, my guts are not smaller than yours." ”

Ziheng stretched his waist, leaned over and rested his elbows on the table, as if he suddenly cheered up, and asked, "Have you lived in Guan's house during this time?" ”

"No," she replied, "my ancestral house is under construction." ”

"I see." He said, then raised two stubborn eyebrows: "These days—no, these weeks, you must not forget me." ”

"Oh." Ai Zhen winked at him and added, "I'll have to think about it." ”

Ziheng deliberately begged her in a pitiful voice: "Promise me ......"

Ai Zhen saw Xiaoyin walking here from afar, so he hurriedly responded: "Okay." ”

When Xiaoyin sat next to her, she gave Ziheng a look while Xiaoyin didn't pay attention. The two of them already had a tacit understanding, and he nodded slightly, not prepared to let others notice the beginning of this romantic relationship.

Xiaoyin said angrily: "This coffee stain is really difficult to go, and now it is only lighter, and it took a long time to wipe it with a hand towel, otherwise it would be really embarrassing to go out like this." She wore a champagne-colored gauze dress today, and the stains were especially noticeable.

Ai Zhen said: "I see that it has faded a lot, and when you cover that place with your handbag, you won't be able to see it." ”

Sung-hyun returned even later, wearing a white shirt and originally planned to go to the theater in the afternoon. The coffee stains can't be cleaned, so I have to go home and change clothes.

Ziheng called a messenger and tipped him twice as much to help him get a taxi.

The four of them arrived at the Guan family together, Ziheng did not stay in Chengxian's room, but walked to the garden to pass the time, the back garden of the Guan family's house and the big garden in the middle are all connected, but they are separated by an iron gate.

Because of the long and warm afternoon sun, only occasionally one or two maids shuttled through the garden.

He stood under a camphor tree with dense shade, looking out at the back garden of the four-room house, hoping that he might see Aizhen, but there was no one in the back garden. Ziheng had no choice but to return to Chengxian's house, but saw that Aizhen and Xiaoyin were there.

Ai Zhen still smiled when she saw him.

Xiaoyin was blaming Cheng Xian: "Fifth brother, where did you leave the record, you said you would lend it to your third cousin." ”

"Don't rush, I'm not looking for it." Cheng Xian rummaged through the bookcase with his back to them, and Xiao Yin couldn't see it, so he stepped forward to help him find it.

Aizhen had no choice but to smile and say, "I really can't find it, forget it." ”

Ziheng stood behind Ai Zhen, and saw that the bow on her head was a little loose, so he wanted to help her tie it. Unexpectedly, after moving twice, the bow was completely torn apart, and the yellow and white checkered ribbon slipped down as soon as it was loosened, and he hurriedly reached out to catch it.

Ai Zhen turned her head to see him holding her headband in her hand and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing to break it up?" ”

Ziheng shook his head: "I'm not a heart." ”

She glanced back at Cheng Xian and Xiao Yin in front of the bookcase not far away, and saw that the two of them didn't notice the situation here, so she quickly grabbed the hairband in his hand back and tied it on his head.

But the bow was not tied yet, and Ziheng was restless again, and when she reached out to move, she was so angry that she slapped his hand away.

This time, he explained, "I want to help you tie it up." ”

"You don't know how to tie it." She rolled her eyes slightly.

Ziheng thought to herself, she looked even more delicate like this, and was just about to say something, when she saw that Sung Hyun seemed to be about to turn around, she lowered her eyelids and made a casual appearance of talking to Ai Zhen.

The record was finally found, Xiaoyin smiled and handed the record into Aizhen's hands, and suddenly a female voice came from a distant place: "What are you two doing secretly!" ”

Ziheng and Ai Zhen's faces were stunned, but they immediately realized that it was the voice of the chatterbox, probably the person on the other wall listening to some legendary story.

The wind was shutting in the hall, and Cheng Xian said casually: "It's probably my mother's mother Fang in the yard, so I will secretly open the conversation box if I have nothing to do." ”

Aizhen didn't let Xiaoyin send her, she got into the car outside the Guan Mansion, and saw Ziheng and Chengxian walking out through the window.

All the details became clear in the sunlight, and Ziheng's hair, which was originally very deep, was illuminated as brown, which was still darker than Sunghyun's hair. Ai Zhen suddenly noticed that the collar of his shirt had somehow tucked into a corner. She really wanted to roll down the window and tell him.

But she didn't, she just told the cinnamon beside her, "Don't break the perfume bottle." ”

The car drove back to Jianxing, it was already dusk, it stopped at the door of the house, and Aizhen got out of the car with Yugui.

The bluestone steps are square, like a kind of candy she stole and ate at school when she was a child, deliberately made into a stone, and the entrance is very sticky and flavorful, not delicious at all.

Aizhen didn't continue to move forward, and stopped at the door very abruptly, and Yugui was puzzled: "Third Miss, what's wrong." ”

She folded her arms, the wind had cooled, and her skin was cold.

Ai Zhen turned to Cinnamon and said, "I don't want to go home for dinner, let's go outside." ”

Yu Gui said: "How is this good, what if the eldest master asks...... And these things in my arms......"

She suddenly lost her temper and shouted, "Okay," Qu Zhi flicked the door of Yu Gui's head, "You want to find someone to send things into the inner house, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

Ten minutes later, Cinnamon led her down a path and made several turns. When they reached the end of their journey, they suddenly saw a wide road, and there were many light bulbs with wires on the side of the road, and some vendors were doing their business under the light bulbs.

Yu Gui said: "Miss, you come with me." ”

Ai Zhen followed her to a food stall, Yu Gui first motioned for her to sit down, and then stood at the table, and when a young man approached to entertain, Fang smiled and said, "Brother Ji." ”

The young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and when he saw that it was her, he was pleasantly surprised: "Xiao Gui, you girl, why don't you say a word when you come!" I'm going to call my mom. Then he turned back and called the woman who was busy at the stove.

Yugui grabbed him and said with a smile: "Don't, you guys are busy here, and Aunt Ji still has to do business." ”

The young man also accepted her kindness, and hurriedly asked Yu Gui to sit down, saying, "I'll give you a bowl of taro balls." ”

Yu Gui smiled: "It's two bowls of osmanthus taro balls, and I brought a guest today." So she pointed to Ai Zhen, who was sitting at the table next to her, and was about to say something, but Ai Zhen quickly stood up and smiled, "I am a friend of hers." ”

Only then did the young man find Ai Zhen sitting in the shadows, hurriedly glanced at it, and quietly asked Yugui: "Is she Miss Xiang?" ”

Yu Gui nodded, and the young man paused and said, "You wait." He turned and walked over to the stove.

After the young man walked away, Yu Gui said, "Miss, I was already working in your house, why don't you teach me to talk about it." It's as if I don't want people to know, and Brother Ji is not unclear. ”

Ai Zhen said: "What do I want to teach you, in this era, you are in my family, and you can't sign the deed of sale, but the domestic servants hired by my family are just like the female workers in the textile factory." ”

She was originally worried that the young man knew that Yu Gui was accompanying the young lady of the main family, so he would look down on Yu Gui, and it seemed that she was narrow-minded.

At this time, the young man brought two hot soup bowls, and said to Yu Gui, "Tell me what else you want to eat." ”

Osmanthus taro balls taste sweet, powdery and glutinous, love is really eating on the wall, and asking cinnamon: "You have known each other for a long time?" ”

Yu Gui said: "Yes, when we were in the village a long time ago, our two families lived next door. ”

Ai Zhen smiled: "Oh, then the friendship between the two of you is a little guess. ”

Yugui glanced at the busy young man, and just said, "Miss, stop talking nonsense, you can stop talking." ”

Ai Zhen felt more and more funny, if it weren't for the dim lighting, I really wanted to see if the black skin of the cinnamon was red. Ai Zhen teased her, "I see—you like him, don't you?" ”
