Chapter 51: Making Friends
Ji Han is most afraid of girls crying in his life, although he doesn't know what happened, but seeing the pear blossoms of the little girl crying in front of him with rain, Chu Chu is pitiful, and Ji Han feels distressed. He had already decided that Gu Qingyue was the victim, how could a simple girl like her be able to fight Gu Qingwan, who was extremely deep in the city
He privately thought that Gu Qingwan was not only scheming, but also narrow-minded and couldn't even tolerate his sister, and he would never marry such a vicious woman to go home.
"Don't cry, I didn't expect your sister to be a bully even for her own sister." He carefully wiped away Gu Qingyue's tears with a handkerchief, and comforted him with extra pity.
"Shizi, don't blame my sister, it's all Qingyue's fault, Qingyue shouldn't make her sister angry, Shizi must not blame her sister because of Qingyue. After all, after all, my sister has a marriage contract with you. Gu Qingyue seemed to be helping Gu Qingwan speak, but in fact, she had been describing Gu Qingwan as a vicious sister who often bullied her sister.
"I wouldn't marry a woman like that. In the future, she is bullying you, just tell me that this son will be the master for you. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Ji Han's eyes, no matter what, he would not marry Gu Qingwan as the princess.
At the same time, Gu Qingwan, who didn't know that she had been labeled viciously by her fiancé, was also lost in the Xiao Mansion, she chased Gu Qingyue and ran out, who knew that she hadn't seen her for a long time, and suddenly felt anxious. It's not too early now, compared to the banquet that will be held in a while, but she doesn't know where she has gone, she can't find her way back, and she suddenly has some frustration.
Leaning on the railing above the corridor, Gu Qingwan planned to stop and rest for a while, and then wait for the maid to come over and show her the way.
"Why are you here?" A low, nice voice sounded slowly behind itself.
The maid didn't wait, but waited for an acquaintance. Gu Qingwan waved her hand to greet the young man who came to her, "Brother Chen Yuan, why are you here?" ”
"My friend's sister invited me for her birthday." He habitually took out a bag of candy from his arms, opened it and handed it to her, which contained various packages of candy.
"Pick what you like."
Gu Qingwan also unceremoniously picked one and opened the wrapper and stuffed it into her mouth, the sweetness of the candy instantly spread in her mouth, and her mood changed a lot.
"Are you lost?" Chen Yuan knew that she was a road idiot, and she rarely came here, so it was normal for her to get lost.
"You really know me best."
Xiao Guogong's Mansion, this is the second time she has come, and the last time was two years ago.
"Follow me." He dropped these three words and walked in front, and Gu Qingwan obediently followed him.
"Guess what I saw when I first came?" He rarely began to sell off, and there was even a hint of relaxation in his tone.
"What do you see?" Gu Qingwan chatted along his topic.
"Ji Han and your cousin." He looked at her indifferently. He not only saw Ji Han and Gu Qingyue walking together, but also saw the unusually intimate behavior of the two.
"Oh." Gu Qingwan replied lightly, anyway, the two of them would hook up sooner or later, she didn't need to be surprised, and she didn't want to disguise herself in front of Chen Yuan anymore.
Chen Yuan had long expected her to react like this, and seeing her indifferent appearance of not caring about his own affairs, his heart relaxed a little.
"The person you asked me to inquire about last time has news, that Dr. Liu is the doctor of the Hua'an Medical Center on Zhuque Street." He paused and continued: "But this Doctor Liu has always been uncertain, he is not in the hospital during this time, and even the guys inside don't know where he has gone?" The strange thing is that Liu Yixu has a good relationship with Ji Han, and it is estimated that he knows his whereabouts, and only Ji Han can find a way to call him back. ”
Gu Qingwan felt a little headache, "Then I'm going to ask Ji Han for help?" But I haven't met him in person, so he won't necessarily help me. ”
"Ji Han doesn't seem to have an ordinary relationship with your cousin."
Gu Qingwan raised her head and met Chen Yuan's meaningful gaze, and she immediately understood what Chen Yuan meant.
"The main hall has arrived, thank you for giving me a ride, I'll take my leave first."
Seeing that the number of people coming and going gradually increased, Gu Qingwan knew that in order not to cause gossip, she had to be far away from him.
Chen Yuan stood quietly in place, looking at the figure of the girl who was gradually moving away.
"Hey!"
There was a strong force from his shoulder, Chen Yuan came back to his senses, turned around, and found his friend Xiao Jue's eyes as if he was looking at a fool.
"A-Yuan, don't tell me you've been watching the scenery here? What the hell is going on? Your face is a little strange. Xiao Jue spoke with some curiosity, Chen Yuan shook his head and walked straight forward.
"It's nothing, the party is about to start, right? Let's go, don't keep everyone waiting. ”
Xiao Jue frowned and looked at his back, and muttered in a low voice: "It's definitely weird!" ”
Gu Qingwan returned to the garden where the guests were entertained, the banquet had just begun, and she was relieved to see Gu Qingyue sitting in the corner with her head down and smirking at a glance. At this moment, a maid walked in and said respectfully to everyone: "The banquet is about to begin, please come with me to the living room to eat." ”
followed the maid into the hall of the banquet one after another, only to find that there were figures everywhere inside. Inside, the main room is reserved for the host and important guests, while the large hall outside is used for other guests, and because of the difference between men and women, they are all prepared separately. According to the dignity of the status, the more humble the guest, the lower the back. Gu Qingwan was invited to the main house, and Gu Qingyue was arranged in the hall.
Gu Qingwan followed the maid and moved to the main room inside, where there was only a huge round table and about seven or eight girls seated. Xiao Lan was sitting in the center, laughing with those girls at this moment. As the protagonist of today, Xiao Lan wore a bright red light long gauze skirt, a rose-red brocade jacket, and snow-white rabbit fluff sewn on the corners. A long brocade-like hair is tied into a falling moon hairpin with a red jade coral hairpin, and a row of pendant glass curtains are inserted under the hairpan, which looks graceful and charming. Among a group of young girls, although her face is not the most beautiful, it is the most eye-catching.
And Ji Rou and Zhao Yueli are among them, Gu Qingwan feels that this circle is really small.
"Miss, Miss Gu is here!"
"Come on in!" Hearing the maid's message, Xiao Lan suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Qingwan at the door with a happy smile.
"Sister Wan'er, come to me!"
Xiao Lan beckoned to her and pointed to the position beside her. Gu Qingwan was slightly stunned in her heart, and hesitated, the position next to the master, no matter how can it be that someone with the same status and status and a girlfriend can sit, right? Wouldn't it be a little inappropriate for her to sit down?
In the past, her friendship with Xiao Lan was only Gu Qingwan teaching her to ride a horse and play polo, and they did not have any intersection on the surface, so many people did not know that she knew Xiao Lan.
The girls around her also raised their heads to look at her, especially Xiao Lan's closeness to her, which suddenly made these young ladies feel a little uncomfortable.
"Hurry up, I've been waiting for you for a long time! Sister Wan'er, come, sit down! ”
Xiao Lan took Gu Qingwan's hand and forced her to sit beside her, and then said to the girls beside her: "This is my friend Gu Qingwan, the eldest lady of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, Wan'er and I met two years ago, but Wan'er's sister doesn't like to participate in banquets, so you haven't seen her." Sister Wan'er could come this time, I didn't expect that this time I finally had the opportunity to introduce my good friend to you. ”
"Haha, Sister Lan, I didn't expect you and Sister Wan to know each other so early. Actually, I met Ah Li and Sister Wan. Sister Wan is still my future sister-in-law. Ji Rou, who was sitting next to Xiao Lan, opened her mouth and smiled.
"We really have a fate with Sister Wan, I only met Sister Wan in the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago, and I met Sister Lan here today." Zhao Yueli smiled.
"Since Sister Wan'er knows you, I won't introduce you, I'll introduce other people to Sister Wan'er."
"This is Tang Huan'er, she is the softest and gentlest person among our sisters, and she is also my cousin." Xiao Lan pointed to the pink-clothed girl next to her again, and then she introduced other people, including the starry Miss Zhao Qing'er she saw in the garden.
Gu Qingwan nodded and smiled, and kept their names in mind.
Gu Qingwan was already noble, and Gu Tianyuan was well-known in the court, so these girls naturally looked down on her.
Everyone's topic quickly turned to other places, and Gu Qingwan also spoke appropriately, her opinions and ideas were all on the spot, but they always made people's eyes shine. The meal ended quickly, and after the banquet was over, everyone went to Xiao Lan's boudoir together. This time, everyone became unscrupulous, and talked about some intimate topics. For example, the object of the engagement, the man you like, and even everyone will help find a way to solve the problem encountered by the little sister, just like a small group. Gu Qingwan sat there quietly, but was suddenly pulled aside by Xiao Lan.
"Sister Wan'er, in fact, I hosted a Shui Yun Zhai, they are all good sisters in our Shui Yun Zhai, and we will come to me every once in a while to get together. Or go to other places to hold banquets, poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, embroidery and cooking, we will dabble in these. Not only can you exchange feelings, but you can also exercise your own literary talent. I see that Sister Wan'er, you have witty words, I wonder if you are interested in joining us Shui Yunzhai? ”
Xiao Lan spoke softly, with a smile in her eyes, everything just now was just a temptation. She had to see Gu Qingwan's ability to handle things and how to avoid estrangement with her girlfriends, and it was obvious that the girl in front of her did not disappoint her. She is subtle but not silent, calm but not timid, humble but not submissive, and always needs to rely on others.
If she and Gu Qingwan were just nodding friends and didn't get along much with ordinary friends before, now Xiao Lan wants Gu Qingwan to be her close friend.
"It is Gu Qingwan's honor to be able to join Shui Yun Zhai." Almost without any hesitation, the expression on Gu Qingwan's face was indifferent.
