Chapter Eighty-Nine: Encounter Again

I just don't know if this anger is directed at Gu Xinian or Mrs. Zheng.

There was no one in the room for a moment, and the atmosphere fell into a subtle awkwardness.

Ye Qinglan glanced at Gu Hong quietly, and then lowered her head in interest. No matter how good you are, you can also score the occasion. In this case, no one should interject lightly, lest this fire burn on themselves.

Listening to the couple's words, Gu Xinian seems to have been lazy and lazy. But no matter how much she imagined it, she couldn't think of Gu Xinian's idling around......

The silence lasted for a moment, and Gu Hong finally opened his mouth: "It's not too early, let's go to the meditation hall!" ”

Mrs. Zheng had already packed up her mood and responded as if nothing had happened. The husband and wife got up and walked out one after the other. There was no sign of a quarrel at all.

Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu followed. There were seven or eight maids and women who accompanied him, but none of them dared to speak in a low voice. Only slight footsteps could be heard in my ears.

The meditation hall is not far from Jingxin Garden, through a cloister, and then turn right to arrive.

Gu Mingyuan, the Duke of Dingguo, and Sun Shi, the Duchess of Dingguo, are there. Gu Hong and his wife stepped forward to say goodbye, and then sat down separately.

Ye Qinglan quietly looked at the two of them without a trace. Gu Mingyuan is similar to his grandfather Ye Sheng, with half-white hair, but his eyes are shining, and he is very energetic.

Sun is also over half a hundred years old, although the maintenance is excellent, in the end he is also a little old, and he is very expensive.

Gu Xiyu doesn't like to talk, and she is still the same in front of her grandparents, so she curtsy and salutes slightly, and then she is said to have said goodbye. Ye Qinglan naturally couldn't be so casual, so she stepped forward and saluted uprightly: "Qinglan has seen two elders. ”

Before she came, she also pondered the question of the title. She and Gu Xiyu are cousins who can't beat each other at all, so it's not good to call them grandfather and grandmother, and it doesn't seem appropriate to call them anything else, so they just vaguely use the word elder to pass by. It's not rude.

Gu Mingyuan nodded casually.

Sun looked Ye Qinglan up and down a few times. He asked with a smile, "Are you Sister Ning's cousin?" ”

Ye Qinglan replied respectfully, and her gaze fell on the position at a forty-five degree angle in front of her. Talking to the elders, looking directly is too rude, and hanging your head is not generous enough, this angle is very appropriate.

Sure enough, Sun's eyes showed a hint of approval, and his tone was a little more accommodating than before: "Since you are a guest, don't be too restrained, sit down and talk with Yu'er." ”

This is, of course, also a polite remark. When the elders speak, how can the younger generations interject at will. Ye Qinglan nodded obediently. sat at the bottom of Gu Xiyu, and then silently listened to everyone's speech.

Gu Mingyuan and Gu Hong, father and son, talked about some things in the court.

Ye Qinglan unconsciously pricked up her ears. This so-called "Western Song" dynasty. Unheard of and unseen in history. Although she wanted to find out what was here, she didn't dare to inquire at will. Now that I have a rare opportunity to hear about the court, I naturally have to listen attentively.

"The prince was reprimanded by the saint a few more words in the court today." Gu Hong said worriedly: "The saint seems to be quite dissatisfied with the prince these days, and this is not the first time. ”

Gu Mingyuan's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "Love is deeply responsible. The crown prince will inherit the great treasure in the future, and it is also a good thing that the saint is strict with him. ”

That being said, the father and son quickly exchanged complicated glances.

Sun frowned, although he didn't ask, his face was not very good-looking.

The crown prince Zhao Qi was born to the queen and was the grandson of Sun's relatives. As the saying goes, one glory and one humiliation. If the prince's position is unstable, how good can the grandfather's family be in the Dingguo Mansion?

Sun suddenly said: "I heard that the third prince has been highly valued by the emperor recently, you might as well go to the palace and walk around often." At first glance, this sentence sounds clueless. After pondering it carefully, it was meaningful, and Mrs. Zheng's face couldn't help but change slightly.

The biological mother of the third prince Zhao Zhang is Zheng Guifei, and Zheng Guifei is her sister-in-law. Sun suddenly came up with such a sentence, but it was not just a casual remark, it was simply a point.

Mrs. Zheng smiled casually: "These things in the palace." Where is our turn? After a pause, he smiled and changed the topic away: "That's right." Why haven't you seen Yongnian until now? ”

At the mention of Gu Yongnian, Sun's expression softened a lot, but he complained: "This kid has been running around all day long, and he has no certainty. Although his brain is smart, he just refuses to read seriously, which is far worse than Xi Nian. ”

Gu Xinian won the first place in the township examination at the age of thirteen, and won the champion at the age of sixteen, which can be described as a sensation. Gu Yongnian's cousin is far behind. It's fifteen years old, and even the children haven't passed the exam yet. I'm afraid that this road to reading is far away.

A hint of mockery flashed in Mrs. Zheng's eyes, but she said with a smile: "Yongnian is still young, and in two years, his temperament should calm down." ”

Sun said in a tone of hatred: "With his rough temperament, it is strange that he can calm down and study." In the future, I can only take the road of Enyin and find him an errand. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Gu Xinian again, frowned and said: "Xinian is also not a small boss, it's not okay to keep being like this." You should also persuade him well, and tell him that a good daughter-in-law is serious. ”

Mrs. Zheng smiled bitterly: "I don't know how many times I've told him, but he just doesn't listen to me." ”

Sun glanced at his daughter-in-law dissatisfied: "Don't get used to him too much." ”

Obviously, no one can control Gu Xinian, but the responsibility is put on her head. Mrs. Zheng responded in her mouth, but she didn't feel good in her heart.

At that moment, a figure flashed in.

Ye Qinglan saw this face out of the corner of her eyes, frowned subconsciously, and lowered her head.

The person who came was none other than Gu Seventh Young Master Gu Yongnian who was mentioned just now. Although his appearance is not as good as Gu Xinian, he can be regarded as a rare handsome young man. But he is frivolous, his eyes are uncertain, and he knows at a glance that he is not a person of good character.

Ye Qinglan rarely hates a person so much when they meet for the first time, and Gu Yong does it when he is young and easy.

Gu Yongnian shouted with a smile, "Grandfather, grandmother, uncle, uncle, aunt", but his eyes glanced at Ye Qinglan, who was sitting on the side. Although this little girl is a little tender, she is really beautiful, and he is itching to see it......

Gu Yongnian's small movements were frequent, and everyone present naturally noticed it. Gu Mingyuan and Gu Hong both frowned. Although Ye Qinglan is young, she is also a guest in the house. Gu Yongnian's behavior was really a bit rude.

Mrs. Zheng was angry with his reckless behavior, but she couldn't say anything in front of Sun.

Sun couldn't stand it anymore, and glared at Gu Yongnian, suggesting that he should be more restrained.

Gu Yongnian reluctantly withdrew his gaze, but his eyes kept rolling, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Mrs. Zheng smiled quietly: "Yongnian, you haven't seen Qinglan yet!" She is Sister Ning's cousin, and she is also Yu'er's cousin. In the future, you will stay in the house for a few days, and when you see her later, just call your cousin. ”

Gu Yongnian nodded with a smile and took the opportunity to take a few more looks.

Ye Qinglan got up, bowed slightly, and shouted dignifiedly: "Qinglan has seen her cousin." Gu Yongnian's rudeness is his business, and she doesn't want to lower her style.

Gu Yongnian looked at those big watery eyes, and blurted out: "What a good name, I will call you Lan'er in the future." ”

Bah! Do I know you well?

Ye Qinglan secretly rolled her eyes in her heart, but she made an aggrieved little daughter gesture on her face, and glanced at Mrs. Zheng for help.

Mrs. Zheng really said immediately: "Yongnian, don't scare Qinglan, let's call your cousin!" "How can a girl's name be shouted casually. If it spreads, Yu Ye Qinglan's reputation will be damaged.

Gu Yongnian nodded perfunctorily, obviously not listening to Mrs. Zheng's words at all.

Mrs. Zheng was angry, so she had to press it down raw. In the future, you can tell Ye Qinglan to stay away from Gu Yongnian......

It was getting dark, and the dining room was already ready.

Men and women sat separately, and the thin screen finally cut off Gu Yongnian's wanton gaze. Ye Qinglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a lot more comfortable.

After waiting for a while, he still didn't see Gu Xinian come back.

Sun was obviously a little displeased, but he didn't say anything and ordered to start eating.

On such occasions, it is strange to be able to eat enough. Ye Qinglan Siwen ate a little half-full, and then put down the chopsticks. But he sighed secretly in his heart. If this continues, I won't want to eat a full meal for the next month or so.

Thinking like this, it's better to stay in Hefeng Temple. At least it's your own territory, and you can eat as much as you want.

After eating dinner and sitting for a while, Mrs. Zheng finally got up and left.

After leaving the Meditation Hall, Gu Xiyu pulled Ye Qinglan with some reluctance. Mrs. Zheng saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but quip: "Since you are so reluctant, how about simply letting Sister Lan live in your Cold Moon Pavilion?" ”

It's just a joke, but I didn't expect Gu Xiyu to nod very seriously.

Mrs. Zheng was a little stunned. It seems that she still underestimated Gu Xiyu's liking for Ye Qinglan. Even Leng Yue Pavilion was willing to let Ye Qinglan live......

Ye Qinglan was very happy in her heart. Living in Cold Moon Pavilion is naturally much better than Jingxin Garden. You can be with Gu Xiyu day and night, so that you can find an opportunity to treat Gu Xiyu at any time.

Mrs. Zheng thought for a while and smiled: "It's okay, since you like it, it's up to you." casually instructed Huang's mother and others to help pack up and settle down.

Fortunately, the guest rooms in the Cold Moon Pavilion were also ready-made, and Ye Qinglan didn't have much luggage, so she settled down in less than an hour.

After tossing and turning like this, Ye Qinglan also felt tired, so she washed up casually and fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, Ye Qinglan suddenly heard a strange movement in a daze, woke up suddenly, and sat up from the bed.
