The recipe for the meat sauce entered the palace, and there was no feedback for three or five days, and Bai Ko was not in a hurry, and lived her life step by step, taking care of business, and studying new dishes with flavors from various countries.

After finishing the May Festival, the second lady finally selected a husband for Gu Chan that she was satisfied with, but the children's marriage still had to be decided by the father in the end, so the family letters came and went frequently, but the gossip heard from the east kitchen seemed that the second master did not have an opinion with the wife, so Gu Chan's marriage froze.

In addition to these news that made the family depressed, Tong Mingli came with good news, she was going to remarry, her fiancé was the young county king selected by the queen mother for her, the saint's own nephew, the two have been in frequent contact in the past few months, and they both belong to each other, so good things have come true, the wedding date has been set for August 18, and the weather is cool just for the wedding.

When the news spread, Ning Peilan set a date with Bai Ko, and invited the sisters of the Pomegranate Club to hold a celebration party for Tong Mingli in the women's tearoom, Gu Chan, as Tong Mingli's cousin, was also invited to attend, and Ning Peilan also arrived in a sedan chair with a big belly.

There was laughter and laughter at the banquet, everyone congratulated Tong Mingli on finding a good husband again, and the daughters of the Pomegranate Club didn't know that Gu Chan's marriage was stranded, and everyone's impression of her was still that she was going to marry the children of the clan, and also joked that her sisters were all wives, and strongly encouraged her to join the Pomegranate Club to expand her social circle.

In such an atmosphere, Gu Chan couldn't shirk it, and for the sake of her own face, she couldn't tell the truth, so she half pushed and half responded on the spot, applied to Ning Peilan to join the Pomegranate Club, and was invited to participate in the summer party and live in her own courtyard outside the city for a few days to spend the summer.

Gu Chan has never been out of the city alone for so long, and was suddenly invited like this, before she could say anything about refusal, someone else had already enthusiastically responded to the landlord's invitation, Gu Chan, a newcomer who had just joined, would be marginalized sooner or later, so Gu Chan had to happily agree and go home to prepare after setting a date.

Although Second Lady Gu was dissatisfied

Entrusted by her mother, Gu Chan set off energetically to make an appointment, the courtyards of the rich and noble families were all concentrated in one place, and on the halfway of Lushan, which was half a day away from the city, there were exquisite manors in the shade of green trees.

Since they are all vacation courtyards, naturally they will meet neighbors from time to time on the mountain, so they get together to party, every day this family invites the last meal and that family invites the next meal, Gu Chan is rare to be able to play so presumptuously, and she has a lot of fun, and she doesn't want to go home.

Happy times are always short-lived, come out to play ** days, it's time to go home, so before the return, they invited the neighbors up and down the mountain and left and right to eat, men and women came to a large group of people, although men and women were divided, but after the banquet everyone still gathered in the garden, but everyone followed the next person, so it was just a simple communication, walk around, take a walk, and eliminate food.

Gu Yun and a few girls were playing hide and seek in the garden, running around away from the crowd, and when it was her turn to count a hundred on the trunk of the tree and came out to look for someone, she couldn't find a partner who was playing games, she even looked for it in the bushes, naturally no one would hide behind the low plant, and her girl didn't know where she was thrown by her for a long time.

Looking for it, Gu Chan unconsciously went around to the rockery by the pond, when she circled around the rockery, wanting to see if there was a cave to hide, but accidentally saw a man sitting on the rockery stone facing the pond, which startled her.

"Yikes! Sorry, I didn't know anyone here! Gu Chan hurriedly apologized, and wanted to turn around and leave.

The man in front of the pond was disturbed, got up and turned his head, still holding a woman's handkerchief in his hand, and the two looked at each other, and they were stunned for a while.

"Miss Gu Wu?!"

"Yang Mi?!" Gu Chan remembered that Yang Mi's father was Liang Zhongshan's father's student, and immediately took two steps back, "Why are you here?" ”

"My friends and I spent the summer in his villa, and the landlord here had a treat, and I was brought by my friends to join in the fun. You're here to play too? Yang Mi explained sincerely.

"What does it have to do with you? I don't want to talk to you. ”

Gu Chan wanted to turn around and leave, but her eyes moved down and saw the handkerchief in Yang Mi's hand, the embroidery on it was quite familiar.

"Huh! That's my handkerchief! ”

Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, pinching the handkerchief and being even more at a loss, and her face showed an embarrassed look.

"Good! It turned out that you took my handkerchief! Rogue! Stinky and shameless! ”

Gu Chan stepped forward and snatched back the handkerchief, turned around and left, but suddenly stumbled, and her right wrist was grabbed by Yang Mi.

"Don't go!"

"What are you going to do? Let go! I'm calling someone! ”

Gu Chan screamed, looked around, there were only two people around the pond, she and Yang Mi, and remembered that she had dumped her girl by playing hide and seek before.

"Don't scream, don't scream, I'll talk to you."

"What do I have to say to you?! You're from the Liang family, I don't have anything to say to you! Let go! Where has Gu Chan experienced being entangled by a man, and she kicked and kicked in panic.

Yang Mi let her shout and kick, and dragged her arm into the belly of the rockery, the dark environment made Gu Chan quiet all of a sudden, and the fear in her heart was even worse.

"What are you going to do?!"

"I don't do anything, I just want us to talk well, I haven't seen you in a long time."

"I don't want to see you! Your father is Liang Zhongshan's senior brother, and you and the Liang family are in the same group! Get out of here! I don't have much to say to you! ”

"Wronged! Treat unjustly! The Liang family wants to harm Tong Mingli, my family doesn't know! I really don't know! And even if I know, I can't persuade it, you know that the Liang family is the maiden family of Princess Yu, with the power of King Yu, where will they put other people's lives in their eyes, if it weren't for Tong Mingli's great life, they would really succeed. ”

"The Liang family is down now, do you think it's a pity and hate?!"

"What do I hate? I don't hate it, it's because they ignore the law, they take the blame, they deserve the end they deserve, I feel ashamed of calling them for more than ten years, really, you believe me. ”

"Really?"

"Really!" Yang Mi grabbed Gu Chan's right hand and pressed it on his heart, "This heart can be proven!" ”

Feeling the firm and powerful heartbeat under the palm of her hand, Gu Chan felt a fever on her face and wanted to withdraw her hand.

Yang Mi held Gu Chan's hand tightly, pressed it against his heart, and heard Gu Chan's breathing becoming rapid, and in the belly of this unclear rockery, a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
