Chapter 391: Marriage Events
"Huh?" Gu Jinli subconsciously replied, and looked at Yin Zike puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”
Yin Zike's eyes dimmed, looking at Gu Jinli's clear eyes, a shallow smile overflowed from his mouth.
Gu Jinli's eyes trembled, and she also realized what she had just answered.
Her face turned pale in an instant, and her mind was confused.
This feeling is like a thief who has been caught.
The secret she was trying to hide was exposed to Yin Zike as if it had been punctured by Qi Hao at the beginning.
"Do you recognize Agu?" Yin Zike's face, except for the warm smile like jade, did not see any different color, he asked as if he was chatting casually.
Gu Jinli suppressed the panic in her heart, and shook her head with a smile: "I don't recognize it." ”
After a pause, she tentatively said, "Ah Gu is a friend of Yin Gongzi?" ”
Yin Zike's eyes didn't blink, and his eyes burned: "It's a very important friend of mine." ”
After catching the panic that flashed in Gu Jinli's eyes, he changed his tone and sighed faintly: "However, she is no longer there." ”
Sure enough, after Gu Jinli heard it, the heart that was about to jump out of her throat immediately fell back.
However, there was still a slight tremor in her voice: "Yes...... Is it? ”
Yin Zike didn't speak, but turned his eyes and looked into the distance.
In my mind, the picture of Yin Suwan and Qi Hao's wedding two years ago came to mind.
At that time, because Hexiang accidentally knocked over the wedding wine, Qi Hao was furious.
In order to protect the lotus incense, she was punished for kowtowing ninety-nine heads in front of everyone.
When the scorching sun was in the sky, she knelt in the crowded courtyard in embarrassment, enduring everyone's ridicule and discussion.
After so much time, Yin Zike still can't forget her bravery when she protected Hexiang, and her sweaty but still tough expression.
Her slender body seemed to gather great strength.
Like a bamboo in the evil wind, it is so stubborn that it would rather bend than bend.
I also forgot what I was thinking, maybe it was sympathy, maybe it was moving, in short, he walked to her side and handed her a silk handkerchief.
Later, there were a few intersections, and the number of times she left it in his mind became more and more.
It's just that the identities of the two are different, and the Yin family and the Gu family are two generations of feuds.
As the son of the Yin family and the eldest brother of Yin Suwan, he definitely can't have such thoughts about Gu Jinli.
Therefore, after learning about the moment Gu Jinli jumped off the cliff, he realized that it was not wrong to hide all his emotions sometimes.
At least, when the heart aches, when the regret is regretful, it has long been accustomed to being alone......
Gu Jinli saw that Yin Zike was silent, and her heart became uneasy again.
She stiffened, "Young Master Yin? ”
Yin Zike came back to his senses, looked at Gu Jinli's nervousness in his eyes, and chuckled: "Look at me, when I think of my friend, I lose my temper." ”
What he said naturally made Gu Jinli can't help but ask: "Is Gongzi Yin on good terms with that friend?" ”
Yin Zike didn't know how to answer this question.
As soon as he came, the person in front of him was the "Ah Gu".
Gu Jinli should know that the person she said was her.
And the previous relationship between the two was at most a nodding acquaintance, not a deep friendship.
Second, he couldn't tell her how important she was in his heart.
Of course, he can't deny it and say something that is contrary to his will.
Smiling slightly, he said lightly: "It's okay." ”
Turning his head, he looked at his entourage and asked, "The acupuncture points that Lin Gongzi taught you to recognize just now, have you recognized them all?" ”
The attendant nodded, shook his head again, and said, "A few more have forgotten." ”
Gu Jinli stood up and walked to the side of the table, "It's okay, I'll draw you a picture, and you can memorize it according to the acupuncture points on the map." ”
With that, she picked up the problem and began to write and draw on the paper.
Yin Zike picked up the teacup, and through the fragrance of tea, he couldn't help but look in the direction of Gu Jinli, for so long, the vacant place in his heart was quietly filled.
After Gu Jinli finished drawing the acupuncture point diagram, he handed it to his entourage: "You will follow this in the future, three times a day." ”
"Wait three days, and then you will give Yin Gongzi a needle."
"Tie it for three or four days, if there is no accident, Yin Gongzi can try to walk around the ground."
The entourage was overjoyed and thanked Gu Jinli again and again.
Yin Zike's face didn't show a particularly happy look, he always had a faint expression, and even his smile was as faint as the clouds in the sky, ethereal: "It's hard work Lin Gongzi." ”
Gu Jinli arched her hand, and her mood calmed down a lot: "Yin Gongzi is polite." ”
"If there's nothing else to do, I'll ...... another day."
Before Gu Jinli's words were finished, she saw Mrs. Yin come in with a happy face: "Ke'er! ”
This abrupt sound made Gu Jinli and Yin Zike both turn their heads to look at each other.
Mrs. Yin held two bright red wedding cards in her hands, followed by an old woman wearing a big red shirt, wearing a big red flower, and an old face that was smeared white.
The old woman's lips were also painted red.
Dressed up in such bells and whistles, Gu Jinli's first reaction was that this person was the old mother in the Chu Pavilion of the Qinglou.
Because the smell of fat powder on her body is very strong.
"Master Yin, I'm here to congratulate you!" She smiled kitsch and spoke first.
"Hi? What's the joy? Yin Zike maintained a proper smile and did not show his disgust.
"Ke'er, this is the birthday of you and Qinglan." Mrs. Yin nodded at Gu Jinli to say hello, and then took Yin Zike's hand, and her voice did not hide her excitement: "Mother has already put the two of you together, it is really a match made in heaven!" ”
"Mother?!" After hearing this, Yin Zike was shocked by the eldest lady and broke out in a cold sweat.
The matchmaker covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, and said flatteringly: "Master Yin, Miss Jiang is well-behaved and lovely, and the two families are a good match, my mother-in-law Wang has said so many matchmakers, I have never seen a more suitable pair than yours!" ”
Gu Jinli listened to the matchmaker's exaggerated words and sneered in her heart.
Seeing that Yin Zike's face finally sank, she guessed that he didn't like this marriage very much.
recalled that Jiang Qinglan, Gu Jinli didn't seem to have much impression in her mind.
Gu Jinli felt that she didn't seem to be here at the moment, and she said in a low voice: "I'll leave first, and I'll come to visit Yin Gongzi another day." ”
Since Yin Zike is dissatisfied with this family business, it is not easy for Gu Jinli to say any annoying words such as congratulations, so let's leave first.
Yin Zike's eyes were deep, and the reluctance and desire in his eyes stopped, making Gu Jinli stunned for a moment, "Young Master Yin? ”
Suppressing the complexity and heaviness in his heart, Yin Zike smiled a lot more reluctantly this time: "I'll talk to Lin Gongzi another day." ”
After that, he instructed his entourage: "Go and send Lin Gongzi." ”
The entourage responded, and then respectfully sent Gu Jinli out of the door.
Mrs. Yin didn't forget to say enthusiastically: "Young Master Lin, come to the house to play another day!" ”
Gu Jinli laughed twice and didn't reply.
"Ke'er, come, let's continue." Mrs. Yin took a sip of tea and continued: "Wait for Mrs. Wang to find someone tomorrow to count the day, let's set the date, you ......"
"Mother." Yin Zike's warm eyes became cold, and he said in an unhappy tone: "My marriage, I make my own decisions." ”
"Jiang Qinglan, I won't marry her."
Maybe Yin Zike's attitude was too resolute, or maybe it was because of the matchmaker's presence, the eldest lady felt that she had lost face.
After hearing this, her old face turned white, and she was so angry that she clenched the wedding card, and said angrily: "Ke'er, the Jiang family has already agreed." ”
"The eight characters have been combined, this family business can never be changed! Otherwise, where will the mother's old face be placed?! ”
"Mother, the marriage is a big deal, I ......" Yin Zike still wanted to argue with reason, but Mrs. Yin arbitrarily interrupted: "Ke'er, this matter is settled, don't say anything!" ”
With that, she flicked her sleeves and left the room angrily, leaving the matchmaker standing awkwardly.
The matchmaker saw that Yin Zike's face was also ugly, so she smiled, and ran out with a slightly plump body.
Yin Zike's eyes fell on the acupuncture point map left by Gu Jinli, and he clenched his fists.
After a while, the anger in his chest could no longer be suppressed, and he slammed it on the table with a "bang".
Last night, he accidentally overheard her ambiguous conversation with Gu Nianshi.
He struggled all night about her identity and the secrets on her body.
Just now, the reason why he suddenly used "Ah Gu" to test her, instead of "Gu Jin" who she married Qi Hao at the beginning? identity, because Qi Hao habitually called her "Ah Gu", and Gu Nian called her "Ah Li".
Although Yin Zike didn't know the inside story and the difference, he believed that Gu Jinli would definitely be more sensitive to the title of "Ah Gu".
Sure enough, as Yin Zike expected, her reaction spoke for itself.
This "Lin Sheng", the "man" who was imprisoned in Ning Wang's Mansion by Qi Hao, this person with superb medical skills to heal his legs, is the secret that he hid in his heart and did not dare to expose back then.
It's her, the indifferent woman, the amazing and glamorous woman......
Exhaling the depression in his heart, Yin Zike carefully took the acupuncture point map in his heart, and his slender fingers stroked it one by one, as if recalling the appearance of her pen just now.
"Madame, ma'am!" After the matchmaker left the courtyard, she followed closely behind the angry eldest lady: "The eldest prince Yin doesn't want this family business, what do you say about this?" ”
You must know that the current identity of the Yin family is very powerful, if this family affair is said by the princess, it will definitely be indispensable for her to have a lot of benefits.
The eldest lady stopped suddenly, and said in an unkind tone: "Mother-in-law Wang, since ancient times, the marriage of children has been the order of their parents, and the matchmaker's words, Qinglan girl is my niece again, so Ke'er has no reason to disagree." ”
When the matchmaker heard this, she instantly smiled again: "Yes, yes, our eldest son is a filial son at first glance, and he will definitely not disobey you." ”
After a pause, she asked again: "However, when do you think we will send this bride price to the Jiang family?" ”
The eldest lady walked forward and said in a deep voice: "I'll go to the housekeeper for the bride price in a while, and I'll send it over tomorrow." ”
Mrs. Wang is right, Yin Zike has never done a single thing to disobey the eldest lady since he was a child.
He is filial, caring, and knowledgeable.
This son is the pride of the eldest lady and the entire Yin family.
And now, because of his legs, he has been laughed at in front of and behind others, how can the eldest lady not be angry in her heart?
Therefore, if Yin Zike can solve the marriage problem as soon as possible, the eldest lady will feel more psychologically balanced.
Jiang Qinglan's father is a small official, but she is also an official eunuch, and she is not bad looking, and she is well-read.
Such a daughter-in-law, if you compare it, is much better than the daughters of those vulgar women who like to speak coldly!
The important thing is that Jiang Qinglan is really interested in Yin Zike, unlike those women, who have taken a fancy to their Yin family's wealth.
The sooner this family business becomes it, the better.
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she couldn't help clapping her hands happily: "Ouch, this relationship is good!" The eldest lady is really a cheerful person! ”
The eldest lady was dedicated to Yin Zike, but Yin Zike didn't appreciate it, and she didn't have much heart to talk to Mrs. Wang: "Okay, you can also go to Jiang's house to reply to a letter, don't let people wait." ”
Mrs. Wang nodded again and again, and then took out the 10,000-year-old Huang Lilai that she carried with her, and turned it over quickly while dipping her saliva, "Big lady, I think this day will be good in ten days, a good day and an auspicious day, it is appropriate to marry and marry." ”
After turning a few more pages, she said: "There is also the end of this month, you can also do it, if you are not in a hurry, the third day of next month will ......."
The eldest lady of "Mrs. Wang" was aggrieved, she waved her hand, completely impatient: "You better find someone who understands first, after all, this is a major event in Ke'er's life, and you can't be sloppy at all." ”
"Yes, yes, I'll go to the fortune teller and count it." Mrs. Wang looked at Mrs. Yin's eyes, as if she was looking at an ingot of silver that was shining, and she walked away after speaking.
At the same time, the second aunt came out of her yard and happened to bump into the eldest lady, she immediately greeted her, and flattered: "The eldest lady, I heard that Lin Gongzi is here today?" ”
The eldest lady ignored the "oh" and continued to walk forward blindly.
Although the second aunt was unhappy, she had no choice but to chase after Yin Penglin: "Big lady, can you come forward to help Lin Gongzi and let her show Lin Er?" ”
Since the death of Mrs. Yin, Yin Penglin has been stimulated and can barely get off the ground.
Now, under the careful care of the second aunt, although he walks very slowly, at least he doesn't need to be helped.
It's just that the second aunt is anxious, and she can't wait for Yin Penglin to be able to walk like flying.
When she heard that Xiaoyaozi had returned to Beijing, she was very excited.
But after thinking about it again, how could ordinary people invite a divine doctor with such a noble status as Xiaoyaozi?
Since this "Lin Sheng" has entered the house, please don't move the big Buddha, please don't move this little Buddha?
The second aunt and Yin Penglin have nothing to do with "Lin Sheng", but the eldest lady and Yin Zike can help.
The Yin family is now under the management of Yin Zike and the eldest lady, as long as Yin Penglin's health improves and recovers, then he can rely on the identity of Mrs. Yin's concubine to fight for the property he deserves!
When the time comes, their mother and son are still afraid that they will not be able to eat fragrant food and drink spicy food?
"Lin Gongzi has already left, wait for next time." The eldest lady replied coldly, and then left the second aunt with a back without looking back.
The second aunt was only perfunctory as the eldest lady, and she didn't want to find "Lin Sheng" to treat Yin Penglin, so she chopped off her foot in hatred and turned her head back.
Before she reached the door of the room, she suddenly heard a loud "bang", and then the servant in the room exclaimed: "Second son! ”
The second aunt was so frightened that she trotted into the house.
After seeing Yin Penglin fall to the ground, she said nervously: "Lin'er, how are you?" Did you hit somewhere? ”
While asking, she made a gesture to help Yin Penglin up.
Who knows, Yin Penglin actually pushed the second aunt away, and gloom was written on his unshaven face: "Don't worry about it, get out!" ”
After yelling, he put his hands on the ground, trying to stand up on his own.
Unfortunately, it was in vain to try several times.
Seeing this, the second aunt said distressedly: "Lin'er, it's cold on the ground, can I help you up?" ”
Although she spoke, she still didn't dare to step forward.
"I, Yin Penglin, don't be a waste person!" Gritting his teeth, Yin Penglin glared at his second aunt like a villain on the street, still unwilling to get up on his own.
This time, he stood up tremblingly, but unfortunately his body was not yet stable, so he leaned back with a "bang", and the back of his head slammed on the corner of the table.
"Lin'er!" The second aunt was not calm at all, she didn't care whether Yin Penglin was willing or not, and directly helped him up with the maid.
Touching the big bag bulging behind Yin Penglin's head, her tears fell: "Lin'er, why are you suffering?" ”
Not only was the second aunt anxious, but Yin Penglin's heart was even more anxious.
However, the more anxious you are, the more you can't.
"Master." At this time, a little maid came in and said, "Just now, the slave maid bumped into Mrs. Wang, and she was talking about the marriage between the eldest prince and the Miss Jiang family, presumably there will be a happy event in the house soon." ”
"The eldest prince and Jiang Qinglan?!" When the second aunt heard this, the hatred in her eyes was even heavier.
She didn't expect that Yin Zike, a lame man, not only became an "imperial businessman" overnight, but also married a beautiful woman, which is simply unreasonable compared to her poor son!
Yin Penglin was even more annoyed when he heard this.
He casually picked up the teacup on the table and fell to the ground with a "bang", so startled that the little girl reflexively dodged to the side.
"Bang la", the things on the table were swept away by Yin Zike's big hand again, and they fell to the ground and were all shattered.
"Lin'er, don't be angry, what should you do if you get angry?" The second aunt persuaded while pulling Yin Penglin's arm.
"Get out, get out of here!" Yin Penglin just wants to be isolated from the world at the moment, don't see anyone's expressions of pity and sympathy, and don't want anyone to see his embarrassed appearance.
Because, even if the subordinates didn't mention it in front of him, he could imagine how the gossip behind his back was transmitted.
How smart and capable is the eldest son of their Yin family, but he, the second young man of the Yin family, is a waste who eats white rice!
Afraid that Yin Penglin would be angry and something, the second aunt had to compromise and respond: "Okay, okay, mother, let's go, let's go!" ”
"Lin'er, don't be angry anymore!"
Snooping, the second aunt turned around and walked out of the room.
Lying on the door and listening for a while, she dared to breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no movement inside.
gave the two maids a look, and the second aunt instructed them to guard Yin Penglin.
Thinking that Yin Zike, who the maid had just announced, might be about to marry Jiang Qinglan, a vicious thought flashed in the second aunt's mind.
With a wicked smile, she made a decision in her heart.
At the door of Mo's house, there were Mo Dongsheng, Mrs. Mo and Mo Zhiyan's family of three.
They stood on the steps in unison, reluctant to say goodbye.
Standing at the foot of the steps was Li Shao and his entourage, who had been staying in the Mo family for five or six days.
Li Shao saw that Mrs. Mo's eyes were red, and he comforted him gently: "Auntie, next time I have a chance, I will come to visit you and my uncle again." ”
Although the words were said to Mrs. Mo, his eyes were on Mo Zhiyan.
Mo Zhiyan didn't speak, just as she didn't understand the deep meaning of his words.
Mrs. Mo liked Li Shao very much, and sighed, "Good boy, next time I take your mother to Beijing together, I haven't seen her for a good time." ”
"Okay." Li Shao nodded, and saluted Mo Dong again: "Uncle, nephew, thank you for your hospitality these days. ”
"It's not too early, so my nephew will take his leave."
Mo Dongsheng also looked at Li Shao with loving eyes: "Good boy, be careful on the road." ”
Li Shao smiled, and finally said to Mo Zhiyan: "Zhiyan, I'm leaving." ”
Mo Zhiyan nodded and said sincerely: "Brother Li has a good journey. ”
This simple sentence is like a breeze blowing in Li Shao's heart.
He moved his lips and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, they could only be condensed into one "good" word.
After getting into the carriage, he glanced at the three members of the Mo family again before lowering the curtain.
Mo Dongsheng and Mrs. Mo watched the carriage drift away, and their expressions became even more regretful.
Although Li Shao only lived here for a few days, the Mo family and his wife could feel that because of Li Shao's company, Mo Zhiyan's mood did not seem to be as low as before.
Mrs. Mo privately tested Mo Zhiyan's attitude, fantasizing that she was moved by Li Shao's careful and intimate companionship this time.
However, Mo Zhiyan told Mrs. Mo bluntly that she had only regarded Li Shao as a big brother from beginning to end over the years, and she still did so.
Coincidentally, these words were also heard clearly by Li Shao, who had just come out of the kitchen with lotus seeds and longan porridge.
I don't know if he really received a letter from home, or if Li Shao felt embarrassed, the next day he proposed to the Mo family and his wife to go home.
The Mo family and his wife kept two sentences, but seeing Li Shao's firm attitude, they had to give up the idea of leaving him again.
When the carriage disappeared from sight, Mrs. Mo shook her head and said a little sadly: "What a good child, why is there no fate!" ”
"Mother." Mo Zhiyan frowned, as if she was tired of hearing these words.
"Okay, okay, mother, don't talk about it." Mrs. Mo took Mo Dongsheng's hand with some anger and entered the courtyard.
Mo Zhiyan also walked back, and the little maid behind her rolled her eyes and whispered, "Master, the slave heard about something." ”
Playing with the handkerchief in her hand, Mo Zhiyan asked casually, "What's the matter?" ”
The little maid's tone was a little gloating: "The one from the Prime Minister's Mansion has a miscarriage!" ”
"You must not have imagined that it was the woman named Zhang Xiaofang who drugged that two years ago." Afraid that Mo Zhiyan would lose her impression, the little maid explained: "It's the female bandit who pestered her uncle, and she lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion again, maybe because she was jealous of that one, so she beat that child." ”
"My uncle was very angry when he found out and almost killed her!"
"Oh, by the way, my uncle plans to wait for that person to recover and then take her to move out of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
The little maid was like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, and she couldn't wait to tell Mo Zhiyan everything she knew about Gu Chengen and Qi Die.
Who would have thought, but Mo Zhiyan interrupted sharply: "Enough, Gu Chengen and I have already reconciled, he is not an uncle." ”
"In the future, don't mention everything about him in front of me again!"
It was rare for the little maid to see Mo Zhiyan speak so violently, she swallowed her saliva and whispered, "Yes, the slave remembers." ”
Mo Zhiyan turned her face away, as if she was blocked by something, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
