Chapter 9: The Tryst
Although Gu Liuguang knew that Lin Wanqiu's gaffe today was because of the blue kite behind the screen, he didn't know that he didn't leave in a hurry because he was unhappy with being "peeped". Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The light breeze blew at night, the temperature was not cold and dry, and the fragrant fragrance of flowers and plants permeated the house, Gu Liuguang quickly fell asleep.
But two people couldn't sleep.
Lin Wanqian felt that he must be stunned, otherwise he would never have quietly left home in the middle of the night and climbed over the wall into the Gu Mansion like a thief.
He wanted to see the girl again, and this time face to face.
However, he didn't know who the girl was, and he hadn't heard Gu Liuguang say that there were any sisters and sisters left in the house, so he could only walk around carefully in the inner courtyard. thought in his heart that if there was really fate, even if he didn't deliberately look for it, he would be able to meet again.
Lin Wanqian subconsciously walked in the direction of the stable, where he had first seen her.
Maybe it was really providence, he had just walked a few steps when he heard a light cough behind him. He turned around, and through the drunken moonlight, he could see a slender girl staring at him with a half-hidden face.
The moonlight was soft, and the girl was even more delicate, and Lin Wanqi's heart immediately jumped significantly, and his breathing couldn't help but be a little shorter.
He slowly approached the girl, and then bowed in despair, and said, "In Xia Lin Wanqi, dare to ask the girl?" ”
"The little girl Lan Kite, I've seen Lin Gongzi." Lan Kite folded her hands at her waist and returned the salute.
At this moment, there is no need to say much.
Everything seemed to go according to the flow, and the two of them walked almost the entire backyard together, even if they stayed awake all night, they were still in good spirits and in good spirits. It wasn't until the fifth watch that some maids and daughters-in-law were ready to get up, and Lin Wanqi, who heard the movement, was reluctant to break up with Lan Yuan to say goodbye, and before leaving, he also told her to rest well during the day, and he would come back at night.
And since Lin Wanqian didn't sleep all night, he naturally didn't go to Gu Mansion to find Gu Liuguang again that day.
At first, Gu Liuguang didn't feel that anything was wrong, but Lin Wanqian didn't come to her again for more than ten days, and her heart was inevitably anxious. It happened that Gu's mother was helping her embroider wedding dresses in Gu Liuguang's room, and when she saw her like she was sitting on pins and needles, she immediately smiled and quipped: "Other people's daughters are quietly embroidering wedding dresses in the room before they get married." Hello, my mother and sister help you embroider, don't say, you can't sit still, and you want to go out. ”
Gu Liuguang pursed his lips and said, "Actually, mother, I feel a little unsteady in my heart. ”
"Why aren't you down-to-earth?" Gu's mother smiled and threaded the needle, and a pair of mandarin ducks came to life in her hands, "Isn't it just that I haven't seen my son-in-law for a few days?" This rule was set by our ancestors a long time ago, but our family and the Lin family have not taken care of it, so you will go out together in those days. Now that the prospective son-in-law can't come, it is estimated that he is also busy with something, don't panic, it's okay. ”
Hearing Gu's mother say this, Gu Liuguang had no choice but to say no more, moved to Gu's mother's side, grabbed her arm and diverted the topic: "Mother, this day is set, you ...... I really don't plan to see my eldest sister? ”
The needle in Gu's mother's hand slammed off, and suddenly pierced into her fingertips, and blood beads gushed out in the blink of an eye.
"Ahh Mother! Gu Liuguang was taken aback, took out Gu's mother's sweat towel and immediately helped her wrap her fingers, "Does it hurt?" I, I didn't mean to. ”
"It's none of your business." Gu's mother shook her head and sighed slightly, "I remembered your eldest sister...... and said, "I asked your father last time, but he still felt that it was inappropriate for his female relatives to travel alone, so he didn't agree." ”
"But when the daughter gets married, the eldest sister and brother-in-law will not come back. I didn't have a chance to see her after I got married, could it be that four years ago was the last time I saw her? Gu Liuguang was a little aggrieved, she still had a lot to ask her eldest sister who had already given birth to three babies.
"Bah, what the last side, don't talk nonsense!" Gu's mother said again and again, thought for a moment, and smiled tentatively, "Streamer, in fact, my mother has an idea......
"Mother, what do you say?"
"You see, the prospective son-in-law is very good at martial arts, and he is a man, if I go and tell your father that the prospective son-in-law will follow us for a while, will he agree?" Gu Mu looked at Gu Liuguang's eyes carefully, after all, she still had to discuss this matter with Lin Wanji.
Gu Liuguang understood and said with a smile: "I don't think it's a problem over there, mother, you better go and ask your father first!" As he spoke, he lowered his head to see if there was any bleeding from the place where his mother was pricked by the needle.
Gu Mu said: "Alas, I'll ask in a while." After a pause, "Don't think I don't know, you, you just want to see your prospective son-in-law to agree so easily!" ”
"Snort." Gu Liuguang chuckled, "Mother, why do you have to say it when you know it!" But you came up with the idea, right? ”
Gu's mother smiled and slapped her lightly.
After the evening, Gu's mother came over and told Gu Liuguang that she could prepare and go to see Gu Yiyao in three days. Gu's mother calculated, in addition to the number of days of delay and small stay on the road, there are still more than 20 days of divorce after they look back, and they can just make final preparations for the marriage.
As soon as he heard the news, Gu Liuguang immediately wrote a text message asking Lin Wanqian to go hunting tomorrow, and decided to tell him Gu's mother's plan in person at that time, and then asked Cuizhu to send it to the Lin Mansion.
After Lin Wanqian received her letter, he crumbled the paper into a ball in a somewhat irritated mood, and then raised his hand and threw it into the corner.
In the days when he didn't meet Gu Liuguang, he had a private meeting with Lan Yuan every night. At first, the two of them just walked hand in hand, gradually hugging and kissing occasionally, and just last night, they ......
He has decided that he will never live up to Lan Kite in this life, but what about Gu Streamer?
Now that he thinks about it, Gu Liuguang seems to be more like a confidant to him. Gu Liuguang likes to hunt, raise horses, and take care of bowstrings. She acts decisively and willfully...... However, everything about her, he can't accept it from the bottom of his heart at the moment. At the thought that such a woman would become his wife, he couldn't help but want to escape.
It's not that she's not good enough, it's just that the blue kite is more suitable. Lan Kite is like a godsend, it is his destiny, and he fell in love at first sight.
That night, he naturally went to find Lan Kite again. However, today's atmosphere was much more dreary than before, and Lan Yuan had always been sensitive, so she couldn't help but ask softly, "What is Lin Lang worried about?" ”
"I'm ......" Lin Wanqian hesitated for a moment. With him, Lan Kite never asked for anything, she was really an extremely sensible woman. He instantly took her into his arms with emotion, and said in a low voice: "I should marry you, not your sister." ”
"......" Lan Yuan was dumbfounded, and stretched out her hand to cover Lin Wanqi's mouth with her eyes, signaling him not to say such a thing.
Lin Wanqian shook his head, brushed her hand down, and firmly held it in the palm of his hand, and said, "But marrying your sister, this matter is already a certainty, and I agreed to it myself, and now I can't regret it." After a pause, he looked at her affectionately, "Why don't I hire you after I marry the streamer?" ”
