Chapter 133: Trial
Now there is no reason to shirk it.
Su Shanyun sighed secretly in her heart and nodded.
Old Madam Xiao's originally serious face suddenly became pleasant, and she held Su Shanyun's soft hand and said, "This is a good boy." ”
After that, he looked at Su Shanyun with great emotion, and held back what he wanted to say next.
She knew that although this girl was supple on the outside, she was very assertive in her heart, and she didn't want to say too much at once, so as not to increase her psychological pressure.
Su Shanyun saw that it was not early, so he asked them to go back and rest.
With Mama Song and Lu He here, Su Shanyun didn't want Mrs. Xiao and Zhang Ying to be too tired, and if they were there, she was afraid that they would continue to talk about blind dates.
Old Madam Xiao carefully told Mama Song and Lu He, and then left with Zhang Ying.
"Miss, I heard that Gongzi Wei is a person with excellent looks and talents, are you nervous?" Green Lotus asked while helping Su Shanyun put down the curtain.
"Not nervous." Su Shanyun replied briefly.
"If it were me, I'd be so nervous that I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight." Green Lotus said again.
After the green lotus withdrew, Su Shanyun turned over, and felt an invisible pressure in her heart.
In the early morning of the next day, Mrs. Xiao personally came to ask Su Shanyun: "How do you feel today?" ”
"It's no big deal." Su Shanyun replied while dressing.
In fact, my head is still a little dizzy, and I don't have much strength in my body.
"Green Lotus, come in and dress up Miss, you have to move quickly, Wei Gongzi will be here in half an hour." Old Madam Xiao said.
"Yes." Lu He, who was helping Su Shanyun fold his nightgown, hurriedly put down his nightgown and came over to help.
"Shanyun, after finishing dressing up, go to the dining room to eat, I asked the kitchen to cook you ginger porridge." Old Madam Xiao said before leaving.
"Good. Thank you grandmother! Su Shanyun smiled at her and said.
"What dress does Mademoiselle want to wear?" Mama Song stood in front of Su Shanyun's clothes cabinet and asked.
"Take that butterfly embroidered Hangzhou silk gown and that rose-colored embroidered jacket."
After dressing up, Su Shanyun looked even more delicate and bright than the flowers that were in full bloom.
It's a pity that this kind of makeup is not worn for her beloved, Su Shanyun couldn't help but feel a little sad, but she quickly adjusted and went to the dining room with a calm face.
Because the whole family was full of curiosity about this Wei Gongzi, and hoped from the bottom of their hearts that Su Shanyun could make an exception this time, everyone cheered Su Shanyun up after breakfast.
Su Shanyun had no choice but to respond obediently one by one, but her heart was as calm as water.
Before Wei Gongzi arrived, Su Shanyun returned to his boudoir, sitting on the big kang by the window, looking at the fluttering snowflakes outside and the warmly open palace pink plum tree in the yard.
Among all the flowers, her favorite is plum blossoms. So when she was eight years old, Su Ziming specially planted this palace pink plum in the small courtyard where she was facing the window of her boudoir.
It's been five years now.
She also fell in love with winter from then on.
There were footsteps, and Green Lotus trotted in and said, "Miss, Master Wei is here, and the old lady has called you to the living room." ”
"Got it." Su Shanyun got up. Walked out slowly.
There was a short distance from her boudoir to the living room, and she used to walk through the courtyard, but now there was a thick pile of snow in the courtyard, so she had to go through the verandah.
When walking on this road, Su Shanyun suddenly felt a sense of tragedy as if she was running to a guillotine, and her steps became heavier and heavier.
But she didn't back down in the end. Modestly stepped on the threshold of the living room.
There was a long, slender man standing in the room, and there was no one else but him and her.
The man sat on the big kang, his eyes looking at her quietly, with an elegant smile on his face.
Wisps of green smoke were rising from the tea on the desk next to him, and snowflakes like goose feathers were falling from the window not far behind him. This person, tea, and snow together suddenly have a kind of oriental classical charm. Su Shanyun watched calmly.
The two looked at each other silently, but neither dared to speak.
Wei Gongzi had long heard that Su Shanyun was both talented and beautiful, and now he was even more shocked when he saw it, and his heart was suddenly ecstatic.
No wonder I heard that many people came to ask for marriage and were rejected, such a beauty is definitely qualified to do so. Wei Gongzi said in his heart.
And Wei Gongzi in Su Shanyun's eyes is indeed as gentle and handsome as everyone says, but compared with her beloved, there are still some things that can make her heart flutter, so she only glanced at him and then withdrew her gaze, and took the initiative to salute him: "The little girl Su Shanyun has seen Wei Gongzi." ”
Wei Gongzi's face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly got up and said politely: "Miss Su is polite, please take a seat!" ”
Su Shanyun sat down directly across from him.
There is only a small case between the two people.
Wei Gongzi seemed to be very nervous, and accidentally spilled some when pouring tea for her, and hurriedly blushed and said, "I'm sorry!" ”
Su Shanyun smiled and said, "It's okay." He took out a small handkerchief from his pocket and wiped it.
Wei Gongzi couldn't say a lot of things that he had thought about for a while, and he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
It stands to reason that he has been in and out of officialdom for almost two years, and he has met a lot of people and dealt with a lot of things. But I don't know why I am so flustered when facing a little girl who is only thirteen years old.
Su Shanyun didn't think much about it, anyway, she only had one thought in her heart - how to reject him tactfully.
In fact, she had been thinking about how to refuse him since last night, so she greeted him generously: "When did Gongzi Wei return to the island city?" ”
"I didn't go back until I was twenty-eight years old, and there were a lot of things to do. I can't help it if I want to go back early. Wei Gongzi replied politely.
"You have a lot of responsibilities in a big position, so it's understandable to be busy. Where do you live in Beijing? ”
"In Ximen Street Sanxi Hutong."
"Oh, it is said that there is an alley in that place that sells birds and flowers, and many literati and scholars love to walk there."
When Wei Gongzi saw her sincere words and friendly attitude, the tension in his heart suddenly disappeared. He smiled and said: "Yes, my father often goes there to enjoy the flowers, and I know a lot of flower farmers, the next time you enter Beijing, tell me, I will take you to see." ”
"Thank you!" Su Shanyun replied succinctly.
"I heard that you also went to Beijing to visit relatives last year, but do you have any interesting places to recommend?" Wei Gongzi asked.
"I've only been to Daxing Hutong in the eastern and western suburbs of the city, Lingji Hutong in Jingde Street, and Liushu Lane in Dawang Street, all to visit relatives and not go out much. Oh, by the way, I've been to a food street, on the side of the seafront. Su Shanyun replied with a smile.
Wei Gongzi's gentle attitude, proper words, and elegant manners all made Wei Gongzi admire, and Wei Gongzi couldn't help but cast his eyes on her peach-like face and the spring-like hands folded on his knees while listening to her. (To be continued.) )
