Chapter 338: Thank you, Lord Wang
Even Ning An hugged his fists and said, "Lord Wang, you're here." ”
In front of everyone, Gu Mingyuan didn't debunk the question of her title, but just glanced at her with a smile, and then let everyone get up, and he arched his hand and said, "Sir." ”
It's also a shameful thing, at the beginning, Gu Mingyuan didn't think to tell Qin Huaiyu about his relationship with Zhang Chenglin, because he was afraid that she would feel guilty. But if you explain it later, it seems deliberate. Therefore, until now, Qin Huaiyu did not know that the relationship between Gu Mingyuan and Zhang Chenglin was that of master and apprentice.
This relationship is not deliberate, and now it has derived a nondescript title of "sir".
Zhang Chenglin sneered, and said lazily: "You came early, so soon?"
Speaking of which, Ning An and he can be regarded as senior brothers, and there are some things mixed in there, so Gu Mingyuan has a good relationship with Ning An. Today, Ning An's birthday, he will definitely come.
"Well, I'm not busy today, so I came early. ”
As he spoke, he casually handed over a white jade box and said with a smile: "It's a year older, a birthday gift for you." ”
For Gu Mingyuan, Ning An seemed much more casual, took it with a smile, and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”
He opened the box casually, only to see that it was covered with red silk, and an ink-colored jade pendant was placed on it.
The whole body is jet black, and there are complex lines engraved on it, which is particularly delicate to look at.
Ning An only glanced at it and felt that this jade pendant was very domineering, and he liked it in his heart, but Zhang Chenglin said in a deep voice: "Ning An, give it back to him." ”
Ning An had never heard such a stern tone from his master, and he was about to hand it back immediately, but his face couldn't help but show a little worry.
On the contrary, Gu Mingyuan buckled the box, stuffed Ning An's hand into his arms, and said with a faint smile: "Old man, you don't have to scare the children to do anything, just take it and play with it." ”
The latter words were said to Ning An.
Seeing this, Zhang Chenglin glared at him and said, "You ...... This ......"
Gu Mingyuan always had a faint smile, and only said, "Okay, don't pay attention to him, the weird old man has a big temper, put it away." Today, you are the biggest in your birthday, change your clothes, and the king will take you to Linjiang Tower for dinner and watch the scenery. ”
Ning An didn't dare to accept it, and when he looked back at his master, there was also a little doubt and uneasiness in his eyes.
Seeing Gu Mingyuan's attitude, he glanced at Ning An again, Zhang Chenglin sighed and said, "Okay, okay, you can put it away." ”
But in the end, he glared at Gu Mingyuan and snorted.
Seeing this, Gu Mingyuan sneered and said, "Old man, Linjiang Building has been chartered by me today, and you can also enjoy your face and eat a little?"
What responded to Gu Mingyuan was the breath coming out of Zhang Chenglin's nostrils.
Zhang Chenglin and Ning An both went into the house to change their clothes, but Qin Huaiyu glanced at Gu Mingyuan thoughtfully.
I don't know if it's my own delusion, but when she looked at the jade pendant, she always felt as if she had seen it somewhere, and the complicated patterns on it looked like some kind of pattern.
But...... When did she see it?
Before she could think about these things clearly, she saw that the master and apprentice had changed their clothes.
The group sat in the room for a while, and then went to Linjiang Tower together.
The name of the riverside building is Linjiang, but in fact it is built next to the moat, with mountains in the distance and water nearby.
It's the beginning of spring, and the breeze is pleasant, although it's still cool, but it's not as cold as in winter.
The painting boats on the verandah on the river are one after another, and occasionally the song of the pipa is heard, and the scenery is really beautiful.
By the time I arrived at Linjiang Tower, it was almost noon. Since Zhang Chenglin, he ordered the dishes one by one, and ordered Xiao Er to go down to pass the dishes, while everyone sat and chatted.
The two Qin Huaiyu sisters leaned together, Zhang Chenglin sat next to them, Gu Mingyuan was opposite Qin Huaiyu, and Ning An was opposite Qin Hongyao, and they could see each other as soon as they looked up.
There were melons and fruit snacks on the table, and the others were still casual, but Qin Hongyao was a little timid, and sat there obediently as a quail. is really a person with both elders and high-ranking positions today, she looks at a horizontal person on weekdays, but she knows the most sense of proportion outside.
Seeing her like this, Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but laugh, took her a fruit, and saw that Qin Hongyao had turned on the little hamster mode.
But after a while, the food on the table was complete, and everyone was not very hungry, so they first brought a cup of tea and wine, and everyone said two auspicious words, wishing Ning An a year and a year.
After that, Zhang Chenglin moved the chopsticks, and everyone started.
Gu Mingyuan is well-informed, and he will mention some interesting things during the banquet, Ning An has also seen a lot of things with Zhang Chenglin over the years, and occasionally talks about his views on Gu Mingyuan's words.
Qin Huaiyu was also a person who went to the battlefield with him in his previous life, so when they talked, they would follow their thoughts from time to time, and the dinner table was lively for a while.
Qin Hongyao held her cheeks and listened to them, she rarely went out, she didn't understand any of this, but when she heard the highlights, she couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes were shining, as if embedded with gems.
Originally, Ning An was still very energetic when she spoke, but when she suddenly heard Qin Hongyao's exclamation, and when she met her expression again, she suddenly felt like she was stuck, and she couldn't say anything.
The meal was enjoyable, and everyone drank a little wine during the banquet, and they were all slightly drunk at this time.
Gu Mingyuan was sitting right in front of the window, Qin Huaiyu was bowing her head to drink, there was a wind blowing her hair, reflecting the hollow carved window edges behind her, and the girl who was drinking in front of her was like an ink painting, which made people sink into it at a glance.
He couldn't help but think of the last time he was in the chess club, the red clay stove, the slow cooking over a fine fire, a pot of tea, a game of chess, and the quiet appearance of the years was nothing more than that.
On a whim, Gu Mingyuan proposed: "The weather is so good today, and the scenery outside is pleasant, why don't we rent a painting boat and tour the lake?"
Of course, Qin Huaiyu didn't have any opinions, so he agreed to come down.
Miss Shijia doesn't have many opportunities to go out on weekdays, and it is not a good thing to go to the river to take a painting boat to the lake, Qin Hongyao also wants to go, so she obediently said that she listens to her eldest sister.
As for Ning An, he has always had no opinion. What's more, since Fang Cai inadvertently glanced at Qin Hongyao, he only felt like he had a rabbit in his chest at this moment, where did he still have his own opinions?
After everyone approved this proposal, they looked at Zhang Chenglin on the side, but saw that he had fallen asleep on the back of the chair at some point!
