The result of the previous night's indulgence was... An awkward meeting the next day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Well, you're awake, do you feel unwell?"
When Xi Mo opened his eyes, he saw Gu Beijun leaning on the side of the bed and reading a book, wearing a white profane coat and his legs in the quilt. The two of them actually slept in the same bed and the same quilt all night.
"Well, my head hurts a little."
Headache? Xi Mo was happy in his heart, he forgot everything last night, right?
The silly smile was revealed, Gu Beijun looked at it, and then said:
"Don't think I've forgotten anything. Madame, we are husband and wife, we should adapt to sharing a bed, we should adapt... A more intimate life. ”
Xi Mo was blocked and speechless for a while, and couldn't hold back a complete word for a long time.
She really didn't expect that Gu Beijun would actually say these words. A man like him really has an aura that blows the sky, and even the words that he hopes the couple will be closer than before are so reasonable, his face is not red and his heart is not beating.
"What are you for? Is it for the life of my parents, the words of the matchmaker, or for me. ”
The last word, Xi Mo's voice was so small that she thought she was the only one who could hear it. She was secretly happy in her heart, thinking if Gu Beijun liked her? She also has her little vanity, and she also wants to have a little love in addition to her husband's tolerance.
"For the sake of husband and wife."
Gu Beijun didn't dare to look into her eyes, he was afraid that he would see the sadness in the little fox's eyes. He had just heard her ask with some ecstatic why, she was expecting to like her.
But there are some promises he can't afford, some words he can't say, he can't even understand his own heart now, how can he easily promise?
"Oh."
Xi Mo's voice was low, and he didn't speak quietly.
"Get up, it's time to eat."
Gu Beijun Xu felt that this oppressive environment was a little suffocating, and after speaking, he hurriedly got up and freshened up.
...
"Beijun, I drank too much yesterday, do you remember anything?"
At the dinner table, Xi Zhongyun asked with a smile.
Since he drank with Gu Beijun yesterday, he has made a lot of discoveries. He had always suspected that Gu Beijun was related to the emperor Gu Che, and he even boldly guessed that the real reason why Gu Beijun gave up politics and became a businessman was to use the identity of a businessman as a cover, contact around Yucheng, and secretly investigate the party of the Empress Dowager Xiao Yun. Because of this suspicion without evidence, Xi Zhongyun had always been wary of Gu Beijun before, but since he drank last night and saw his appearance, he let go of most of his heart.
"I remember intermittently, I lost my temper last night, and I hope my father-in-law will tolerate it."
"Haha, where is it, yesterday I saw you and Xi Moxiao loving each other, and I am naturally happy to see it as a father."
Xi Zhongyun smiled and served vegetables to his son-in-law, and the treatment was very different from yesterday.
"Where is this going, after a year and a half, if Xi Mo and I have a son and a half daughter, we will have to rely on my father-in-law and mother-in-law to take care of it. Although the status of the Four Princes' Mansion is not ordinary, the Four Princes' Mansion has always been kind and understands the rules, and if they have children in the future, they will have to bother their mother-in-law to visit more. ”
This sentence made Xi Zhongyun and Sun Jingyi smile from ear to ear, while Xi Mo looked at Gu Beijun who was talking and laughing a little gloomy: He was still saying things like that to himself just now, and now he is saying this, what does he think?
"Master, the queen mother's urgent report in the palace!"
While he was eating, a man suddenly broke into the doorway.
Everyone at the dinner table looked at the man who was dressed in tatters and tired and sweaty.
The man obviously didn't expect that there was an outsider he didn't know on the table, and hurriedly shut his mouth for a while.
Gu Beijun asked casually:
"A holy decree from the palace?"
Pretending to ask in confusion, Xi Zhongyun put his mind at ease, expecting that Gu Beijun did not think deeply.
"Dajiu, I'm having dinner with my daughter and son-in-law, I'll talk about it later."
"Yes, yes."
The man named Da Jiu was obviously frightened and walked away.
The connection between this Xifu and the Queen Mother is not shallow, if Xiao Yun has an urgent report in the palace, he has always asked reliable people in the palace to send it to Dajiu, and Dajiu will send it to Xifu again, which has been a practice for many years. And Da Jiu is also used to running in every time he is in a hurry to tell him, after all, in Xifu, it is not unusual to have an urgent report from the Queen Mother. But today, the bad thing is that there are people who take care of the family.
Everyone in the world knows that the queen mother Xiao Yun is in charge, and the emperor is weak and young, and he is respectful on the surface, but in fact, he doesn't know what his idea is.
"Cough, Beijun, you also know that our Xi family and the Queen Mother are cousins, a few days ago, the Queen Mother said that she would send us something to reward us, this Dajiu has never seen the world, and he is reckless."
"It's okay, just a lot of people under your command to train you."
Gu Beijun didn't take it seriously, and still ate quietly.
"Beijun, go out to have a meal with me at noon, last time I was in the food hall in Yucheng, I promised you to introduce you to some people from the yamen in the capital, and today I am going to meet them."
Although Xi Zhongyun is very relieved of Gu Beijun now, he also wants to test him.
"Okay."
Gu Beijun nodded, thinking about something unfathomable in his heart.
...
"Where are you and your father going to eat at noon?"
After breakfast, Xi Zhongyun called Gu Beijun to speak, Xi Mo stayed with his mother, and Gu Beijun returned to the room at almost noon.
"It's just a restaurant, you can spend time with your mother at home."
Gu Beijun didn't say anything and changed his clothes.
Xi Mo stood there and looked at Gu Beijun, thinking about things in his heart. She really watched it last night, and her father deliberately wanted to get Gu Beijun drunk. Gu Beijun was drunk and didn't notice it, but she saw it by chance.
Although he didn't know what his father's purpose was, Xi Mo was still a little uneasy.
"Bei-kun."
After some ideological struggle, she decided that she wanted to remind him anyway.
"Huh?"
Gu Beijun glanced at her.
"I, I have something to tell you."
"When did you get so long-winded?"
Xi Mo has always had a strong aura, even if he speaks, he is the kind that rushes to be the first.
"Beijun, pay more attention when you go out to eat, don't get drunk like yesterday, after all, after all, your father-in-law is not your father."
Gu Beijun narrowed his eyes and looked at Xi Mo's face slightly pale.
Does she know something?
"Why do you say that all of a sudden?"
Gu Beijun's face gradually became serious.
"My father deliberately poured you wine yesterday and asked you some strange things, I don't understand what happened between you, but you were drunk yesterday, I think you should tell you, after all, this way, this is fairer."
Xi Mo didn't dare to look into his eyes, biting her lip and weighing it, she still told the truth.
"Fool."
Gu Beijun smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed her soft hair.
"You think too much, I'm very good with my father-in-law."
In the end, he still wouldn't reveal half a word to her, so he had to pretend to be stupid. But God knows, just now, how moved he was, after all, Xi Zhongyun is her biological father, and he has a much more status than his newlywed husband.
"Okay, then you go early and come back early."
Xi Mo also felt that he was too worried, the two of them were both businessmen, but they were in two different places, and they were the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law, how could there be anything worth intriguing?
Thinking like this, Xi Mo felt a little more relieved.
