Chapter 814: Tonight's Horse Hunting (1)
Hui Niang's sudden visit on the first day of the Lunar New Year was like a pool of stagnant water suddenly poured into a bay of clear spring, which touched a certain heartstring that Guo Ye had been silent for a long time, and the whole person caused a ripple and commotion for no reason......
After a moment of silence, an intriguing smile quietly rose at the corner of his mouth.
Then, he waved his hand and ordered his subordinates: "Go and invite Zhao Tingshi's wife and daughter into the mansion, and also, inform Mrs. Zhen and let her entertain her personally." Ben Hou went to have some dinner first. ”
"Yes!"
The concierge received the order and hurried to the gate of the house.
Guo Ye glanced at the horse tag on the four-corner table and smiled: "This table of mahjong is interesting at night, hehe......"
After laughing, he walked out of the flower hall and went to dinner
About an hour later, Guo Ye asked Xiuxiu to take Yue'er to the old lady's room to play, and then summoned Zhenniang, Zhiru, and Huiniang to the flower hall, and the four of them sat around the table and temporarily set up a mahjong table.
He first introduced the gameplay of the horse crane, and when he heard it, Zhenniang and Zhiru's eyes were blazing, and their little faces were full of eagerness.
And Hui Niang stood quietly next to her sister, listening curiously to Guo Ye's explanation of the way to play the horse crane, while thinking about how to find an opportunity to vaguely remind Guo Ye not to forget about her husband's recommendation letter.
After Guo Ye explained and demonstrated the basic gameplay of the horse crane, Zhen Niang and Zhiru had already found their own positions, rolled up their sleeves and sat down, looking like they were going to fight the three lilies of the horse crane.
And Hui Niang remembered her husband's instructions before leaving, where is there still a playful mind?
Subsequently, she didn't sit down but hurriedly reminded: "Marquis of Yizhou, the concubine came to Longxi this time, firstly, to pay a visit to the old lady of your mansion in her early years, and secondly, she was also ...... by her husband."
"Mrs. Zhao, why are you so restrained? Don't stand, sit down! ”
Guo Ye deliberately interrupted Hui Niang's speech and urged: "You see that Zhiru and Ling Mei are sitting down and preparing to play with a few horse cranes, you can't be so unhappy, right?" This horse crane requires four people to play, otherwise it will be too boring if there is no one of three. ”
Hui Niang saw that Guo Ye deliberately diverted the topic, and her hot temper just wanted to come up, but when she thought that she was coming to ask for something today, what if Guo Ye was offended, what if he didn't help her husband write this letter of recommendation?
Then she hid her fiery temper again.
She forced a smile, endured the resentment in her heart and her disgust for Guo Ye, and said with a small compliment: "Yizhou Hou, this horse crane is really ingenious, and this game is also quite interesting, it is really a strange thing to entertain and relieve boredom." ”
Guo Ye knew that Hui Niang's attitude towards herself had always been untreatable, firstly, because she had been beaten and played lightly by herself, and secondly, she had never agreed with Zhen Niang to be her concubine, she would rather marry Zhen Niang into an ordinary family as a wife, rather than wronged her sister as a concubine.
This compliment just now is the first time he has heard it from the other party's mouth since he met Hui Niang, it's really not easy!
After secretly enjoying himself for a while, he sat down by himself, then pointed to the position of the lower head, and invited Hui Niang: "Mrs. Zhao, please sit down, while there is nothing to do around the first day of the Lunar New Year, let's fight the horse hanging three lilies tonight." ”
But Hui Niang probably saw that Guo Ye was hiding something strange, or shook her head resistantly, and said stubbornly: "Yizhou Hou, listening to your explanation just now, the concubine also has some understanding of the gameplay of horse hanging. But it's getting late now, and I'll ask Mrs. Ling, Mrs. Zhiru, and Wanzhen for advice when I have a chance in the future. And Yue'er is probably sleepy, so I'll quit first. ”
"Huh? Mrs. Zhao, why are you so disappointed? ”
This time, it was not Guo Ye who was the first to show dissatisfaction, but Kang Zhiru, who had been rolling up her sleeves and preparing for war.
Guo Ye listened to Yang Wanhui being so stubborn and not giving face, and his face couldn't help but feel a little more gloomy.
Zhenniang looked at Xianggong's bad face, and knew that her sister came to do something for her brother-in-law this time, so she couldn't help but secretly worry for her sister, and at the same time blamed her sister for not knowing how to be tactful.
In a hurry, she stretched out her lotus foot under the table and kicked at Hui Niang, and reminded her with a pun: "Sister, why don't you play with your sister for a while?" If you don't play, then how can we continue to play? It's better to talk to Xianggong about you while playing. ”
Guo Ye didn't expect Zhen Niang to lobby Hui Niang for herself, and praised from the bottom of her heart, what a good daughter-in-law, this is the elbow turning in, helping the husband to abuse, oh no, it is a good thing for the father-in-law.
Seeing that Zhiru was dissatisfied, seeing Guo Ye's face was not good, and listening to the little sister's lobbying like this, Huiniang's ears couldn't help but soften, she sat down slowly, and said weakly: "Then, the concubine will play for a while?" After all, I am not a female dependant of the Guo Mansion, and the women's family plays too late in other people's houses, which is easy to cause gossip and right and wrong, and I hope that the Hou of Yizhou will forgive me. And ......"
She said for fear of arousing Guo Ye's disgust again, so she hurriedly added: "And Yue'er has to go to bed very early at night, without my mother by her side, I'm afraid she won't be able to sleep well." ”
Guo Ye saw that Hui Niang succumbed to sit down, and suddenly smiled, and Hui Niang's worries were very inappropriate, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Ling Qianjin is playing in my mother's room now." And didn't I let Mrs. Xiuxiu accompany me? It's been so long, and I don't see Ling Qian'er crying and looking for her mother, which means that Miss Yue'er is having fun now. Mrs. Zhao doesn't have to worry about Yue'er, let's concentrate on playing horse hanging. ”
After hearing this, Hui Niang felt an inexplicable worry in her heart, could it be that this color embryo surnamed Guo deliberately supported Mrs. Xiuxiu, and then deliberately arranged for her and Yue'er to go to the old lady's room to play?
Ill-intentioned?
Hidden?
Suddenly, Hui Niang's mind reappeared the scene when Guo Ye was flirtatious with herself when she was in Ruzhou. Her most intuitive feeling for Guo Ye is only seven words: shamelessly acting as a color embryo.
"Okay, okay, don't delay, let's get started!"
Kang Zhiru on the side was already pouting, and shouted impatiently: "If you continue to grind like this, you won't be able to finish eight laps of horse crane even if it is dawn." ”
Zhen Niang covered her mouth and smiled, and teased: "Sister Zhiru seems to be in a hurry to lose the silver, I don't know if the silver you prepared tonight is enough." ”
Kang Zhiru patted the purse on her waist arrogantly, pouted, and said: "Zhenniang, don't take advantage of your tongue, don't think that I will let you if you are pregnant, hum, I will win all your private money tonight." ”
Guo Yechong smiled at the two and said: "Okay, one relies on ability and the other relies on luck, just playing tricks is nothing." Okay, let's scuffle the horse tag first! ”
Crash~
With both hands, he pushed down all the neatly stacked horse tags in front of the door and scrubbed them.
When Kang Zhiru and Zhenniang saw it, they also knocked down the horse tag in front of the door in the same way, and scrubbed it unfamiliarly.
Guo Ye saw Hui Niang sitting there dumbfounded, her hands on the horse tag in front of the door motionless, a little stunned.
He couldn't help but stretch out his right hand and pretend to be inadvertent, and naturally put his palm on the back of Hui Niang's hand, patted it lightly and said softly: "Mrs. Zhao, didn't you forget to bring the silver when you went out today?" Haha, don't worry, we're just playing, don't worry. Besides, if you win today, you will be yours, and if you lose, it will be mine. ”
"Huh?"
Hui Niang felt that her little hand was suddenly wrapped in a strange and warm big hand, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, and she hurriedly pulled her little hand out, a flush flew up on her cheeks, and she shook her head and squeaked: "No, no need, the concubine has her own silver, so you don't need to bother Yizhou Hou." ”
Crash~
She hurriedly pushed it with one hand and knocked down the horse tag in front of the door in one go.
Seeing this, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of Guo Ye's mouth, and he clenched the palm of the hand that touched Hui Niang just now, and secretly praised, smooth and tender, and energetic!
