Chapter 210: Missing
What the? Is Gu Xi coming?
Several girls were shocked, and their reactions were different. Gu Xiyu was naturally the happiest one, Ye Qingrou's eyes flashed with surprise and excitement, Ye Qingning was also surprised and happy, and she had no time to taunt Ye Qingrou anymore.
The smile in Ye Qinglan's eyes quietly disappeared. From the moment Gu Xiyu appeared, she guessed that Gu Xinian would inevitably appear as well, but she didn't expect this moment to come so quickly!
This feeling of being nervous and vigilant as soon as you hear the other person's name is really not very good. There was another scene of the last fierce quarrel that broke up, and she didn't want to see him again at all.
Gu Xiyu was immersed in joy, and didn't notice the abnormality of Ye Qinglan's feelings at all, so she took Ye Qinglan's hand: "Cousin Lan, the eldest brother is here, let's go see him together." ā
"No!" For the first time in her life, her mouth reacted one step faster than her brain. Although the refusal was more direct, however, his heart was strangely happy: "Cousin Xiyu, I'm sorry, I don't want to see him." ā
She can actually find some euphemistic reasons and excuses, such as "Oh, my head suddenly hurts so much that I can go back and rest for a while" or something like that. But somehow, she told the truth.
She just didn't want to see him! What can it be?
Even if he is the most beautiful man in the capital with a handsome and graceful demeanor, even if he is the future heir to the title of Duke of Dingguo, the eldest grandson of the Dingguo Mansion, so what? Even if she is just an insignificant concubine in Uncle Changyuan's mansion, she also has the right not to see him!
Gu Xiyu looked at Ye Qinglan in a daze, and didn't know what to say for a while. In her heart, Gu Xinian and Ye Qinglan are very important. It's just that these two people are inherently not right, and every time they meet, they are full of sparks. It's good now, Ye Qinglan simply avoided it
"Tenth sister," Ye Qingning frowned slightly: "Cousin Gu is rare to come once, it's not good if you don't go to see guests!" ā
Ye Qinglan responded calmly: "Sixth sister." The last time I had a bad break with Cousin Gu, it was just an embarrassment when we met again. On the contrary, it will make each other unhappy, so it is better for me to avoid it with fun. ā
Ye Qingning hesitated for a moment before sighing helplessly: "Okay." Since you insist, then you should avoid it. However, if Cousin Gu asks about you, how should I answer? ā
Ye Qinglan said with a smile: "How could Cousin Gu ask me about it. The sixth sister is really worried. After a pause, he added: "If he really mentions me, you can just say that I am not feeling well and cannot meet guests." "This little trick of pretending to be sick is very old-fashioned. But it's the most effective.
Ye Qingning had no choice but to nod.
The more Ye Qingrou listened, the more confused she became, and she interjected and asked, "Tenth cousin, what's going on with you and Cousin Gu?" "Unhappy or something. Why does it sound weird?
Ye Qinglan smiled. He avoided the important and said lightly: "It's not too early, don't let Cousin Gu wait, let's go to Luomei Courtyard quickly!" With that, he turned around and walked in the opposite direction of the Plum Temple.
"Where are you going alone?" Gu Xiyu blurted out.
Ye Qinglan looked back and smiled indifferently: "I will walk around the garden at will to pass the time." It's never too late to go back when it's time for lunch. "After thinking about it, I still feel that it is inappropriate, what if the Zheng family leaves Gu Xinian for lunch, won't they still meet at that time? simply added: "If Cousin Gu stays at noon and doesn't leave, please ask the sixth sister to send someone to Hefeng Courtyard to sue me." ā
Ye Qingning responded with tears and laughter.
After the three of them left. Ye Qinglan wandered around the garden alone for a while, and then returned to the Hefeng Courtyard.
On weekdays, you are very good, either accompany Ye Qingning, or go to Qinfang Garden to talk to Cui Wan, and no matter how much Gu Xiyu is, she doesn't feel lonely. But today, everyone went to Luomei Courtyard, and she was rarely left alone. I actually felt a little lonely.
Perhaps, this is also one of the reasons why she has been trying her best to make friends with Ye Qingning and Cui Wan! The huge courtyard is empty, and she is the only so-called master, and no one cares about it all day long, and she has nothing to do, which is really boring. It's different when someone has a companion
"If Miss feels bored, why don't you go and practice!" Rui Xue built yƬ road.
Ye Qinglan shook her head with interest. She practiced the piano for fun, and she didn't put in much hard work. She didn't plan to be a talented girl anyway.
Gui Yuan came over with a few books and said earnestly: "Otherwise, Miss should take a look at the book." ā
Ye Qinglan glanced at the book, and couldn't arouse any interest. These miscellaneous travelogues and other idle books have been read by her many times, and they are almost all memorized, what else is there to see?
She would have liked to find more books to read. But at this time, books were expensive and difficult to find, and it was inconvenient for women to buy books in bookstores. I had to give up! Now that I think about it, I really regret it. At that time, I was living in the Dingguo Mansion, and I really should have quietly "borrowed" a few books from Gu Xinian's study to see what to do! How do you think of this person again!
Ye Qinglan frowned, and simply drove the uninvited figure away.
Ruixue and Gui Yuan looked at each other, thinking in unison. The one who can make his master impetuous, upset, and upset is none other than Gu Sigongzi!
"Miss, if you're really bored, why don't you go to Luomei Courtyard!" Rui Xue cautiously persuaded: "Sixth Miss, they are all over there, they must be very lively." ā
"I don't want to join in the fun. With Gu Xinian here, I won't go. Ye Qinglan's face was rarely stiff, but she had a little childish cuteness when the girl was unreasonable.
Rui Xue laughed dumbly, and almost blurted out a sentence. Miss, haven't you always been mild-tempered and calm-tempered? Why do you have to compete with Gu Sigongzi this time?
The last time the two quarreled was really bad, but it's been more than a month, and no matter how much anger there is, it's almost gone. Why is Miss still angry?
Rui Xue is more tactful by nature, but Longan is different. Say whatever comes to mind: "Miss, are you still angry with Gu Sigongzi?" ā
Ye Qinglan replied against her will: "No, I am very broad-minded, how can I hold a grudge." "How could she be that kind of woman with a small belly? She's not holding a grudge, she just doesn't want to see that face!
"Since you don't hold a grudge, why don't you go and see Gu Gongzi?" Gui Yuan looked puzzled: "Miss and Miss Biao are so good, and Gu Gongzi is the wife's nephew." Isn't it rude for you not to go to meet guests? "The young lady has always been thoughtful, and rarely is so presumptuous.
Ye Qinglan was rarely asked, and after a moment of pause, she said, "I naturally have my reasons for not going." Well, don't talk about that. Bring me my needlework dustpan, my purse is not yet embroidered! ā
Knowing that the master was changing the topic, Gui Yuan had no choice but to respond. After the needlework dustpan was brought, Ye Qinglan seemed to be focused on embroidering the purse. A look of "I'm busy, don't bother me"!
Ruixue and Gui Yuan glanced at each other and were silent.
At this time, the Luomei courtyard is very lively. It stands to reason that a man should not have entered the house at will. However, Gu Xinian is the nephew of the Zheng family, so naturally he does not have so many scruples. It just so happened that Ye Yuanwei was not on official business today, and he accompanied Gu Xinian to chat about interesting things about the government and the opposition, but he was not lonely.
"Xi Nian, you finally want to open it." Ye Yuanwei smiled and teased: "The queen mother came forward and personally sought the beauty of the household servant for you." ā
Gu Xinian smiled faintly: "Don't make fun of me." ā
If there is any news that has been the most sensational in the government and the opposition recently, it is none other than Gu Xinian's entry into the court as an official.
In the past few years, Gu Xinian has always regarded himself as a lazy idler, obviously full of talent, but he is willing to live idlely. As the eldest grandson of the Dingguo Mansion, he has always been single and refused to marry a wife, and he has done nothing in his career. In addition to making people choke, they can't help but give birth to many conjectures. He and the crown prince were once close, but now they have little contact. If there is no special reason for this, probably no one will believe it.
Now, this rumor has been shattered.
Empress Gu opened the phoenix mouth, and the emperor generously gave the post of the household waiter of the fourth grade. Gu Xi jumped to a high position at a young age, and he received a lot of fat and water, which naturally made people envious.
Ye Qingning quietly glanced at Gu Xinian from time to time, and a sweet and bitter unspeakable taste welled up in his heart. The person I once liked was right in front of my eyes, but it was so far away.
What you can't get is always the best, and this saying actually applies to everyone.
Take Ye Qingning at this moment, in her eyes, no matter how she looks at it, Gu Xinian is so handsome, perfect and impeccable.
is also immersed in Gu Xinian's "beauty", as well as Ye Qingrou. Since she met Gu Xinian that time, his figure has been deeply engraved in her heart. For a deep boudoir girl in the boudoir, Gu Xinian is like the bright moon in the sky, out of reach. Even if you know that the other party doesn't have yourself in their eyes, you can't restrain the desire to get close.
Gu Xinian turned a blind eye to the sad eyes mixed with the admiration of the two girls, and looked at Gu Xiyu with a smile: "Yu'er, did you sleep well last night?" ā
Gu Xiyu's habit of recognizing the bed, he, as an elder brother, is naturally very clear.
Gu Xiyu first shook her head, then nodded again.
Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows, and a knowing smile flashed in his dark eyes. Gu Xiyu must not have slept well, but she was afraid that he would let her go back for this reason, so she immediately nodded again.
Ye Qingning interjected with a smile: "Cousin, just rest assured." Cousin Xiyu lives in Huancui Pavilion, and there are ten sisters with her, so it must be no problem. ā
At the mention of Ye Qinglan's name, Gu Xinian's eyes narrowed slightly.
This girl is really different from the outside, she looks kind and gentle and lovely, but she is actually very good-tempered. Last time, he walked away in a rage, but today he came to the door, and she still avoided it
