Chapter XII
"Dare to ask if the girl is the daughter of the Su Tavern?"
The appearance of the man chewing words made Su Jinshi frown, she had never liked scholars with a sour taste, but out of politeness, she still nodded and said, "May I ask who you are?" ”
The man's complexion was very white, almost transparent in the sun, and because he was thin, he looked a little sickly, and he said, "Hello Miss Su, Xiaosheng Gu Shengyun." ”
Su Jinshi thought about it, but he didn't have any impression, and he didn't know why he came to him.
Su Jinshi didn't speak, but the man continued: "In the past, Xiaosheng often went to Su's tavern to buy some wine, and he had already seen the girl. ”
Saying that, Gu Shengyun still held his hand and waved it to Su Jinshi, Su Jinshi frowned, she had a bad impression of this person, she had always been very arrogant, and she didn't like these red tapes, but this Gu Shengyun treated her like this.
"Well, well, if you're going to buy tofu, come back tomorrow." Su Jinshi stopped looking at him and continued to clean up.
Gu Shengyun was not enthusiastic about him when he saw Su Jin, nor was he angry, "Is the girl tomorrow also there?" He blurted out, and after speaking, he felt that it was inappropriate, and he smiled apologetically, "It's a little abrupt, and I hope the girl doesn't mind." ”
Su Jinshi frowned, only waved his hand, and didn't speak again, Nian Su on the side felt that Su Jinshi's attitude was a little bad, she smiled at Gu Shengyun, and said, "Jinshi is in a bad mood today, don't worry about it." ”
Gu Shengyun smiled politely, "Xiao Sheng also guessed, so I will say goodbye first and come to buy tofu tomorrow." ”
After speaking, Gu Shengyun glanced at Su Jinshi again, and saw that the latter was busy with his own affairs, and the corners of his eyes were not left to him, and he was not bored anymore and left.
Nian Su looked at Gu Shengyun's back, didn't speak, and continued to pack up his things, but Su Jinshi frowned and said, "This person is really annoying." ”
Su Jinshi helped Nian Su transport the tofu home, because the tofu was selling well this time, and Nian Su and Xiaodouzi were in a good mood, so he invited Su Jinshi into the house to drink a glass of water.
Before the glass of water was drunk, Zhao hurriedly ran over to find her.
"Jinshi, come home with me." Zhao Shi took Su Jinshi's hand and said anxiously.
Su Jinshi put the bowl down and said, "What's so urgent?" ”
"What else could be the matter? It's not your life's worth yet! Come home with me and get some make-up, and meet you in the evening at the restaurant in town! Zhao said with a spring on his face.
Su Jinshi frowned, and reluctantly followed Zhao home, Zhao happily pulled Su Jinshi into the room, took out all the rouge gouache in his house, and dressed up Su Jinshi for a while, and his hair was scattered and thinned again.
In the end, Zhao also asked Su Jinshi to put on new clothes and shoes, Su Jinshi looked at himself in the glasses, and was tossed by Zhao a little more beautiful.
In the evening, Su Xin closed the door of the store in advance, and hurriedly went home, seeing that Zhao had already cleaned up Su Jinshi, he breathed a sigh of relief, he sat down to rest for a while, returned to the house and changed into decent clothes, and led Su Jinshi and Zhao out of the house.
The location was set at the largest restaurant in the town, and along the way, Su Jinshi also knew the family history of the family he wanted to see.
It is the Gu family in the town, the ancestors of the three generations are in the imperial court after the official retreat here, the children in the family have not yet taken the scientific examination, because of the decline of the previous generation, the middle-aged only got a son, extremely favored, want to marry a wife for him before the pediatric examination, as soon as possible for the Gu family to inherit the lineage.
After coming to the restaurant, the people of the Gu family had already arrived, Su Xin led the Zhao family Su Jinshi to sit down, and Su Jinshi followed the words of the Zhao family and kept his head down.
"Miss Su looks really good!"
It was a woman who spoke, listening to the tone like the Gu family's wife said by the Zhao family, Su Jinshi lowered his head and said with a smile: "Madame has won the award." ”
Seeing that her daughter was so sensible, Zhao was also relieved, and she smiled: "Gu Gongzi is also extremely handsome. ”
Mrs. Gu also laughed, but because Mrs. Gu had been an official wife in the capital, her smile was extremely subtle, "Miss Su, can you look up and let me take a look?" ”
Su Jinshi raised her head according to her words, but the moment she looked up, she saw Gu Shengyun sitting opposite, her face that was still smiling suddenly stinked, she frowned at Gu Shengyun, and questioned him with her eyes, but Gu Shengyun seemed to not understand, and kept smirking at Su Jinshi.
Su Jinshi's face became more and more ugly, and Mrs. Gu could see it, and she couldn't help but feel a little inexplicable, she was looking at her son's smirk, and asked, "Have the two children seen each other before?" ”
Su Jinshi didn't speak with a stinky face, so Gu Shengyun smiled and continued: "Today on the street, Xiaosheng and Miss Su had a relationship, and Miss Su's act of helping each other made Xiaosheng deeply emotional. ”
Mrs. Gu's face was slightly gloomy, and when she looked at Su Jin again, although this girl looked good, but the heroism between her eyebrows made her a little disliked.
"Let's eat the vegetables first, it's not good to eat when it's cold." Mrs. Gu said with a smile.
Su Xin smiled and nodded, and when Mrs. Gu picked up the chopsticks, the others picked up the chopsticks and started eating, Su Jinshi was angry, and the food was a little casual, and the eating was not good, Zhao pinched her thigh several times to remind her to pay attention to etiquette, but she ignored it.
"What does Miss Su like to do on weekdays?" Mrs. Gu asked with a smile.
"Jin Shi helps with housework at home on weekdays, and sometimes he is a female celebrity, but he doesn't do it well." Zhao replied with a smile.
Mrs. Gu's brows furrowed slightly, and then she smiled: "Look at Miss Su, she is a hearty person. ”
Su Jinshi put down his chopsticks, and said vaguely when there was still food in his mouth: "What my mother just said is only partial, I will help in the restaurant most of the time, and sometimes I will help the little widow next door sell tofu." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was silence at the dinner table, Mrs. Gu's face could no longer be hung up, and the Su couple were also very embarrassed.
"Mother, Jin Shi is kind and chivalrous to help others, naturally she is informal, and her mother must not treat her as an ordinary woman." Gu Shengyun smiled and relieved Su Jinshi.
But Su Jinshi didn't appreciate it, and continued to eat the dishes as if nothing happened, although he was relieved, but the Su couple still had a burst of embarrassment on their faces.
"Hehe, look at this Su girl, it's unruly." Mrs. Gu smiled coldly and said with some sarcasm.
Su Xin and Zhao also heard the meaning of the words, but they didn't dare to say anything.
The meal was very unpleasant, and Su Jinshi was full, but Mrs. Gu and the Su couple were a little unable to swallow.
Gu Shengyun's appreciation for Su Jinshi in her eyes became stronger and stronger, and Mrs. Gu naturally saw it in her eyes, she was a little anxious in her heart, but her face was unmoved, "Miss Su is different from ordinary women, no wonder she is still at home now." ”
As soon as these words came out, Su Jinshi's face suddenly turned extremely cold, and she sneered: "I'm still at home now because I don't look down on those men, Mrs. Gu, do you really think this Gu Shengyun is a rare commodity?" He is so thin and pale, isn't there some hidden disease? ”
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she immediately became angry, "Su Jinshi! You'd better remember what you said today! ”
"Why should I remember? Do you have the capital to make me remember? Su Jinshi shook off Zhao's hand and said coldly.
Mrs. Gu's face sank completely, and the Su couple were also extremely embarrassed.
Su Xin was so angry when he saw Su Jinshi, but he had to reluctantly smile and say to Mrs. Gu: "Mrs. Gu, the little girl is not sensible, and she still looks at Haihan." ”
Su Jinshi saw that Su Xin was still talking to Mrs. Gu in such a low voice, she was angry, she glanced at Mrs. Gu coldly, turned around and left, Mrs. Gu was so angry that her face turned green, but because of her bad face, she could only flick her sleeves and leave.
Out of the restaurant, the moon was already bright outside, Su Jinshi was upset, so she picked a small path to walk, she stepped on the moonlight and thought about her current situation, only to feel extremely irritable.
The moonlight poured on the ground, stretching Su Jinshi's figure very long, and she walked alone, only to feel a moment of loneliness.
It has been almost two months since she came to ancient times, from the beginning of the discomfort, to the current habits, she likes the current family very much, she has lived all her life and only felt the taste of family affection in just two months.
The night breeze blew, slowly blowing away her chaotic thoughts, but a picture flashed in her mind, a picture from a long time ago.
It was a bloody evening, the orange sun spilled into the house, and the dust floating in the air danced in the warm yellow hue, it should have been a pleasant evening, but the sound of the utensils breaking came from Su Jinshi's house.
A fat-headed and big-eared man grabbed Su Jinshi's hair and shook her head from side to side, slapped her from time to time, and said in a vicious tone: "Su Jinshi, because of his early love, was demerit by school, and the object is still a woman?" You're able to do it now, men can't play enough, and you still play with women! ”
The corners of Su Jinshi's mouth were oozing blood, and she sneered: "Dad, this is the last time I call you like this, and from now on, I don't need you to care about my qiē." ”
In exchange for a man's beating, Su Jinshi silently endured it, after the rainstorm stopped, Su's mother came to comfort her and persuade her, and she chose to leave, no matter how good she was, she couldn't be worth one-ten-thousandth of her brother.
This is her modern family, and her current family, although she talks about it, she can feel Su Xin and Zhao's love for her.
But if they insist that she marry, then she can only leave them.
When Su Jinshi went home, Su Xin and Zhao were waiting for her in her room, she chuckled in her heart, she sat down, and said with a reluctant smile: "Dad, mother, why don't you sleep yet?" ”
Su Xin was still smiling when he saw Su Jinshi, he slapped the table suddenly, pointed at Su Jinshi and said, "You did a really good job!" Gu Shengyun is a well-connected family, you treat Mrs. Gu family like this today, how do you ask me to face the Gu family in the future? If you don't look down on him, you should be better, right? ”
Su Xin paused and continued: "I see that Gu Shengyun still has some meaning to you today, you embarrass people like this, how will we behave in the future?" ”
Su Jinshi admitted that she had done nothing wrong, she didn't like Mrs. Gu's weird appearance, and she didn't like Su Xin and Zhao's low-voiced talk.
"Dad, I don't think I did anything wrong."
