049 Gaffe

Many years later, Gu Qingwan thought back and realized that no matter how she covered up and avoided that day, that flower-viewing banquet was just a dead end for her.

So Gu Qingwan, who doesn't know anything now, is in a good mood on the way back to Dingyuan's Mansion. On the contrary, it was Gu Qingwan, with a white face, holding Xingyu's hand tightly, and the look on her face was very nervous.

At the flower viewing banquet just now, Princess Huihe glanced at Gu Qingyan a few more times, and praised Gu Qingyan a few words. If it was on weekdays, Gu Qingyan would definitely be very happy, but now that she is in the limelight in front of Princess Huihe, it is not a good thing for Gu Qingyan.

On the other hand, Gu Qingwan, even though the jade plate she was sent by Mrs. Gu to dress her up today was very bright, but compared to Princess Hui and Princess Hui, she was pressed down. Besides, she learned from the seven girls in the house, and before going out, she piled a lot of gold jewelry on herself, which looked very tacky.

And Gu Qingyan, who was dressed plainly, was more conspicuous by Gu Qingwan. The two sat together, and Princess Huihe naturally saw Gu Qingyan first.

Besides, among so many girls, when it comes to poetry, Gu Qingwan is indeed the weakest one. This is originally her shortcoming, and she doesn't have to deliberately restrain her timidity.

And the maids who followed Gu Qingwan and Gu Qingyan were waiting outside the pavilion from afar, and they didn't know the situation in the pavilion.

The carriage left Princess Huihe's mansion, and Yuzhan saw that Gu Qingwan's expression was relaxed, but Gu Qingyan was not in a good mood, and she muttered a little in her heart. It's just that she followed Gu Qingwan out. Old Madam Gu just said that she could mention Gu Qingwan, if she was looking for something to ask the west, it would be considered overstepping.

Gui Ye served Gu Qingwan for a short time, and seeing that Gu Qingwan was in a good mood, he came to Gu Qingwan and said: "Now that the summer vacation is heavy outside, the girl is going to the old lady's house to ask for peace after returning home, otherwise, I will let Hongjin go to the kitchen to prepare desserts to understand the heat." ”

The carriage returned to the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, and there must be someone in the Yuanxiang Pavilion who was waiting outside the second gate to listen to the meaning of Guiye. Xu confessed to the red brocade before she left.

Although the carriage was spacious, only two curtains were still breathable, and it was much hotter inside the carriage than outside. Gu Qingwan reached out and took the handkerchief handed over by Gui Ye, wiped the thin sweat on her forehead, and nodded slightly.

"By the way, last time I asked the third aunt to borrow three books, you let Hongjin help me get them back." Gu Qingwan remembered something. He whispered another word of laurel leaves.

There was no ice bucket in the Yuanxiang Pavilion, and after the weather gradually got hotter, Gu Qingwan's mind was a little irritable during the day, how could she calm down and read a book. I can only wait for the sun to go down before I sit under the lamp for a while. In this era, there is a lack of entertainment, and all she can do alone is to read books.

Fortunately, the Gu family still has a lot of books, and Gu Qingwan only reads things related to this era. For example, the annals. The law and the like, just a rough translation. For example, the documents such as the copy she thought about before were all placed in the library building in the outer courtyard, if Gu Qingwan wanted to read it, it would be a lot more troublesome, most likely Gu Cunke copied a copy for her to bring into the inner courtyard.

Gu Qingyan was already in a bad mood, but when she saw that Gu Qingwan was still talking and laughing quietly with Gui Ye, her face tightened even tighter.

"I said why the carriage seems to be smaller, but it turned out that the third sister asked Guiye to squeeze in too." Gu Qingyan smiled and glanced at Gui Ye and said to Xingyu, "Xingyu, you better go to the carriage behind, there are too many people in the carriage, it's weirdly hot." ”

The carriage of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is deliberately made to be more spacious, and the carriage is to hit six or seven people, and it will not feel crowded.

Yuzhan looked up at the two girls behind her, but she didn't say a word.

"Girl, I went to the carriage behind me, and I didn't follow the girl." Xingyu's body didn't move, just looked straight at Gui Ye.

Gui Ye was about to speak, Gu Qingwan pulled Gui Ye behind her, Gui Ye's mouth opened, and she swallowed the words that she was about to blurt out.

"The third aunt of the book finally agreed to lend it to me, you can ask the red brocade to be careful not to break it." As if she hadn't heard Gu Qingyan's words, Gu Qingwan continued to whisper to Gui Ye, "It's hot, she has to sweat on her hands, tell her not to touch the book with her sweaty hands." ”

Guiye nodded: "I'll let Hongjin be careful." ”

Gu Qingyan was so angry that her face was a little distorted, so she kicked Xingyu fiercely: "I'll let you go down, are you deaf?" ”

Xingyu has also been serving by Gu Qingyan's side for many years, so she naturally knows that Gu Qingyan's previous sentence of letting her go down was just deliberately said to Gu Qingwan, so she never moved. didn't expect Gu Qingyan to turn her face when she said it, but now she is really angry when she looks at it. At least the kick on her leg was a real pain.

Gu Qingwan was talking to Gui Ye, and when she saw Gu Qingyan making a big fuss, she turned her head to look at her. Then she lowered her head again, but she didn't see half of it.

It was Xingyu and Yuzhan on the side, both a little stunned.

"Get out of here! Forget about others, you are my maid, why do you take my words as a deaf ear? Who gave you the guts! Gu Qingyan saw that Gu Qingwan looked indifferent, and she was angry.

The eldest lady beside Old Madam Gu has always been the most trusted by Old Madam Gu, and Gu Qingyan didn't dare to be angry with Yuzhan.

And Gu Qingwan is older than her, and she has been able to grasp the balance for so many years, and she has never been directly angry with Gu Qingwan and the maids of Yuanxiang Pavilion. However, Gu Qingwan had a violent temper, Chang Chen secretly picked a few words, and then came out regardless of it.

Even if the last one made trouble in front of the old lady and the eldest lady, Gu Qingyan couldn't find fault with it, and it was Gu Qingwan who made the matter big from beginning to end.

It's ridiculous that Gu Qingwan has been doing it for so many years, but she didn't find out that she was secretly doing it, and only thought that Old Madam Gu was unfair to her.

But this time, Gu Qingwan didn't know what medicine she had taken wrong, so she didn't even think she heard her words. It was Gu Qingwan's nonchalant attitude that made Gu Qingyan's worries and fears accumulated in Princess Huihe's Mansion all turn into anger, and the people next to her couldn't get angry, and Xingyu, who was following her, was naturally unlucky.

Xingyu knew that she was angry with Gu Qingyan, and she was also very aggrieved in her heart, but she had to do what Gu Qingyan said. She has been by Gu Qingyan's side for four years, and naturally she knows Gu Qingyan's temperament ∪ the third girl, and the fifth girl has actually been spoiled by the second lady in private, but she knows how to hide it in front of others.

Xingyu was about to lift the curtain when she heard Gu Qingwan say softly: "Fifth sister, listen carefully." ”

Gu Qingyan glanced at Gu Qingwan with a calm face, and said impatiently, "What does the third sister want me to listen to?" ”

"Didn't you hear the noise outside?" After that, Gu Qingwan glanced at Xingyu with a smile, "On this occasion, you let Xingyu lift the curtain and get out of the car, is it out of place?" Xingyu is the big girl by your side, and you always have to think about her. ”

The reason in Gu Qingyan's heart had already burned out, so she sneered: "Xingyu is my maid, and the third sister seems to be in too much control." ”

"In that case, please." Gu Qingwan stretched out her hand and gestured towards the car curtain, and the expression on Xingyu's face suddenly darkened.

The third girl is right, this is a busy city, and the second-class maids in the inner courtyard will not easily show up in such a mixed occasion. She was a first-class maid, but she got off the bus in the downtown area and went to the carriage behind her, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought about Xingyu.

Xingyu hesitated for a moment, and then saw the five girls glaring at her fiercely, and couldn't help but shudder. Now that the fifth girl is obviously angry with the third girl, how can there be any reason at all? Now that I think about the words of the third girl, it seems that I deliberately provoked the fifth girl.

It's a pity that Xingyu didn't dare to look up at Gu Qingwan's expression anymore, she was afraid that Gu Qingyan would be wrong, thinking that she would ask the third girl for help, but she would lose her mind even more.

"Also, I forgot to say that the fifth sister's voice is a little louder, and there are people outside the carriage, so it's not good to be heard by others." There was a "don't bother me" expression on his face.

Gu Qingyan has been squeezed by Gu Qingwan like this since she was a child. She looked at Gu Qingwan with red eyes, but she remembered what Gu Qingwan said just now, so she could only keep her mouth shut. Because she knew that if she opened her own mouth, her voice would be sharp.

Gu Qingyan closed her eyes to calm her anger, while Xingyu lifted the curtain to a corner, and was stopped by Yuzhan raising her hand.

"Fifth girl, it's really inappropriate to let Xingyu get out of the car at this time." After that, her tone was softer again, "Xingyu is the personal maid of the fifth girl, and the girl also has to think about herself." ”

The corners of Gu Qingwan's mouth raised, and she leaned back against the wall of the carriage. Now that Yuzhan has persuaded her, I'm afraid there will be no follow-up to this matter.

The words of the jade cup were like a basin of cold water poured down on the head, which finally made the angry Gu Qingyan find a little sense. She coughed lightly, and when Xingyu saw this, she quickly withdrew her hand, and just sat next to Gu Qingyan with her head down.

Seeing that Gu Qingyan had finally quieted down, Yuzhan breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want to care about it, but she didn't expect things to develop to a point she didn't expect.

The three girls, who have always been reckless, turned out to be calm and relaxed, while the five girls, who have always been gentle, seem to have eaten a cannonball. Thinking about it, if there were no three girls with bad tempers as a foil, the tempers of these five girls would not be good.

Yuzhan glanced at Gu Qingwan, but saw that she had already lowered her head to take a nap, but she couldn't see what the look was on her face.

And the fifth girl is indeed out of shape today, but I don't know what happened in the pavilion in the small garden. No, what did Princess Huihe say to the five girls? (To be continued)
