Chapter 110: Divergence
Fu Ying lowered his eyes, and his slender fingers touched the hairy little head of the "sugar ball". The kitten seemed to be able to understand Song's reprimand, and shrunk its neck in fear and hid in Fu Ying's arms.
yes, she's making a fool of herself. She also knew that it was inappropriate to teach each other privately. But she likes "sugar balls" very much, and she is really reluctant to let go of her hand. She likes it, and it is different from taking someone's handkerchief purse and jade pendant. After all, a kitten is a living thing, not an object.
"Mother, as long as we don't talk nonsense with people, who will know who gave me the candy ball?"
"I won't allow that." Song raised his voice to call people: "Ruiyue." ”
"Ma'am." Ruiyue stood in front of the door.
"You go, take this kitten to the outer courtyard and hand it over to Xiao Huyuan, and say that his cat has broken into the inner house by mistake."
"Yes, ma'am." Ruiyue lowered her head to the bedside, not daring to snatch the kitten from the girl's hand, only sighed secretly, and sure enough, Mrs. was angry when she knew that Xiao Huyuan came to the East Cross Courtyard at will.
Just now, if the girl had something to hide, saying that the kitten was not sent by Xiao Nursing Home, Mrs. didn't know what to be angry about.
Fu Ying still lowered her eyes. Gently scratching the kitten's head. The kitten meowed a few more times.
In the end, she reluctantly handed over the "sugar ball" to Ruiyue.
Ruiyue breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated with the "sugar ball" in her arms.
Song looked at his well-behaved daughter, and he couldn't bear it, so he sat on the edge of the bed and said softly: "If you like kittens, go back and find one to give you." It was just a gift from a foreign man, and we can't ask for it. ”
Fu Ying just bowed his head, and then asked, "Is it still lit in the warehouse?" ”
"Checking is underway. Zhao Bo is bleeding this time, and this matter is thanks to your questioning and finding out that those two men are suspicious. ”
"Actually, it's thanks to Xiao Huyuan that they caught them. Otherwise, everyone has run away, what can we do? ”
Song keenly found that Fu Ying called Xiao Cuo no longer "Ah Cuo", but called him "Xiao Nursing Hospital", and he liked it very much, and said with a smile: "I will thank him again when I turn around." Mo Xuan came to the house today, and he also explained yesterday's affairs. I see that the old lady and the old lady are very jealous of him, and even your second and third aunts are very courteous. ”
"Long Huwei is the emperor's confidant, Brother Mo Xuan is in a high position at a young age, so he will naturally be respected, and they are all used to stepping on the highs and lows, and it is normal for them to stammer when they see someone stronger than them."
"I don't think it's just a stammer." Song smiled and said, "What your second and third aunts have in mind about Mo Xuan, I can probably guess something." After all, Sister Yun and Sister Rui have also reached the age when they should say kiss, if they have to stumble over the system, they are afraid that they will be talking about kissing. ”
"Mother means they have taken a fancy to Brother Mo Xuan?"
"It's obvious. People say that Tang San Gongzi is the best choice in the hearts of the girls who have not come out of the pavilion in Shengjing City, but my mother doesn't think so, even if I don't know what kind of goods he is in his bones, I don't think he can compare to Mo Xuan. Your brother Mo Xuan is young and promising, he is not bad in terms of appearance and talent, and his family is sparse, he has no in-laws on his head after marrying, and there are no concubines on the left and right. ”
Song looked at Fu Ying's expression carefully when he spoke, and saw that she was not disgusted, so he said jokingly: "It's a pity to let them take such a good candidate, why don't you go and tell him that you two will be settled, how about it?" ”
Fu Ying's astonished apricot eyes widened: "Mother, this kind of joke can't be made!" ”
"What if my mother wasn't joking?" Song put his arm around Fu Ying and said earnestly: "You are now fourteen, and the New Year is about to end, let's make a big deal first, and then there will be two years to get married, and your age is just right." Moreover, your brother Mo Xuan has a good character, and he was brought up by his mother, so his affection is naturally unusual, and he must have nothing to say to you. ”
Fu Ying listened to Song's analysis and knew that she was serious.
Objectively speaking, Gu Yun is indeed a good candidate. Not only is he a good match, but Gu Yun himself is an extremely motivated young man, just like Song said, he is the best candidate in all aspects of appearance.
It's just that Fu Ying has no feelings for him in his heart.
Maybe she was too careful, the last time Gu Yun escorted the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they would rather leave their homes and go to their grandmother's house to ask for help from the people who used the dart game to inquire about his whereabouts, but not only was he broken in, but Gu Yun even returned to Kyoto a long time ago but did not show up. Yesterday, he didn't think about their mother and daughter first. Fu Ying felt that Gu Yun was a very motivated and ambitious man. In his mind, the affairs of the court and the central government should take the first place, and any woman who follows him may become an appendage.
In fact, which woman in ancient times was not an accessory of a man?
But she didn't like it!
Fu Ying lowered her eyes and was silent, Song thought she was shy, and hugged her shoulders and swayed: "If Yingying thinks it's okay, my mother will go back and talk to him, okay?" ”
Fu Ying shook his head: "Mother." I don't like him, I don't have a relationship with him. ”
Song's smile was choked, and he thought of the flower-like face on his face, when he returned to the room just now, Fu Ying hugged the kitten and smiled happily. Compared with the current calm and well-behaved, such a vivid expression is from the heart.
"Haunting, although Xiao Gongzi was born handsome, we don't know his details. You are still young, you have never seen the sinister hearts of people, and you and Xiao Gongzi are afraid that it is really inappropriate. What's more, when a man marries a woman, which family is not the words of the matchmaker of the parents? Your mother still has the right to call the shots. ”
"Mother, you forgot that the emperor gave me the right to choose."
"Do you have to choose him?"
"I'm not trying to choose anyone, I don't have any favorite, I just don't want to choose Brother Mo Xuan. Because I think his mind is too heavy, and it is impossible to put me in an important position. And our temperaments really don't get along. ”
"You have grown up together since childhood, how can you not get along? Do you see how considerate he is to you on weekdays? ”
Fu Ying pursed her lips and said, "It's still too early to talk about this question, so let's stop it first." No matter how good Brother Mo Xuan is, he is not the type I like. ”
Song's face was pale, and he wanted to reprimand his daughter, but he couldn't say anything serious, but Fu Ying had a close relationship with Xiao Cuo in private, which really made her angry.
After being patient for a long time, the Song family was reluctant to Fu Ying after all, so he no longer pursued Xiao Ying's mistakes, and only said: "Yingying, you are about to turn the New Year, and you are also a big girl, what can you do and what you can't do in the future, you must have a number in your heart in the future, don't make any jokes and come to make your father and your brother uneasy." ”
Song's words are undoubtedly very heavy, where does Fu Ying not understand what she means?
Sighed lightly: "I know Mother." ”
She responded so well-behaved, Song was relieved, "You are also tired, you should be careful when you are still sick, don't provoke the wind and cold again, or you can sleep for a while." ”
Fu Ying lay down, and Song was by her side. It wasn't until she fell asleep that she went to the storeroom in the backyard to supervise whether anyone was lazy and whether someone was entrained.
And Xiao Shaoxia, who was holding a little white cat in the outer courtyard, squatted on the steps, his brows twisted so that he could almost kill a fly.
Ah Yuanfu smiled closely, "Master, it was the eldest lady who asked her to send the kitten back, and it wasn't the seventh girl." Why should you care too much? ”
Xiao Cuo shook his head and said, "You don't understand." You look at her happy, but in fact, she has always had a knot in her heart that has not gone away. I gave her a kitten, one on a whim, and the other so that she had a spiritual friend. She is also very good at teasing on weekdays. But it was negligence and did not consider the issue of male and female defense. ”
"What restrictions do you care about your status? If you go and confess your identity in front of Mrs. Wu Liuhou now, seeing that you are in a high position, Mrs. Wu Liuhou will definitely agree. ”
"Do I have to get married, and I have to move out of my identity to force others to make people nod? Am I that bad? ”
Xiao Cuo was depressed, and he didn't hesitate to open his mouth, and Ah Yuan, who was frightened, was silent, and swallowed all the words he wanted to persuade.
"Sugar Ball" fell asleep on Xiao Cuo's palm.
Xiao Cuo helplessly pinched the fur on the kitten's back and put it down, and poked its little short legs that had not yet grown: "If it weren't for you, your aunt and grandmother wouldn't have been reprimanded by her mother, I don't know how he was sad at this time." ”
Ah Yuan and Archer echoed casually, but they were thinking in their hearts, if they called their aunt and grandmother, wouldn't Fu Ying become the same kind as the cat? I don't know how she would have reacted if she found out.
Fu Ying started a fever again that night, and the Song family was anxious to order someone to invite Sun Niangzi to adjust the recipe overnight, and it was not until the dawn of the morning that Fu Ying completely subsided the fever before letting people go.
In the next three or four days, Fu Ying's body healed very quickly.
After the kitten was returned to Xiao Cuo, he never entered the inner house again, Fu Ying guessed that maybe it was the sentence that Song said: "Entering the inner house by mistake" made Xiao Cuo have an idea in his heart, and it was not good to come privately again.
When she thought that the Song family actually wanted her to marry Gu Yun, she felt that her head was as big as a fight.
In the era of her parents' orders, no matter how much she struggled, she couldn't solve the problem.
"Girl, Young Master Mo Xuan is here."
Fu Ying listened to the maid's reply, and immediately frowned helplessly.
Foreigners are not allowed to come in, but no one pays attention to people like Gu Yun who come and go at will? Why did you only notice that Xiao sent a cat by mistake?
She didn't realize that the thoughts in her heart were towards Xiao, but because of Song's orders, she was unwilling to disobey, so there was a matter of talent.
"Seventh sister, are you feeling better?" This time, Gu Yun waited for the next person to talk back and forth before entering the house, and then entered the door and sat on the rose chair by the window outside.
"Thank you, I'm better."
"Just now, my stepmother called me and said that she had something to discuss."
Something to discuss?
Fu Ying immediately thought of what Song had said.
However, she couldn't pull Gu Yun and asked, "Did my mother promise me to you?" "If not, it's embarrassing.
Fu Ying said helplessly: "Since my mother has something to discuss with you, you can go quickly." Don't be delayed. ”
"You don't want to see me so much?" Gu Yun joked. R1152
