Gu Huanyi asked in surprise: "Ah, did the two of them know each other before?" ”

Qiao Jingyun said: "They both grew up in the capital, although they don't know each other, they know each other. Moreover, I only saw it at my wedding reception two months ago. ”

Gu Huanyi has not seen Jin Ying yet, but when Li Congxin introduced his brothers, he said that Jin Ying is the youngest grandson of Jin Shoufu, who is outstanding in learning and a good seedling of talent.

The first impression that He Guangling and Jin Ying gave to Gu Huanyi was not like a kind of person, and it should not be a circle.

She asked with a little doubt: "What does the eldest princess of Xuyang say about the Jin family's courtship?" ”

Qiao Jingyun said: "The eldest princess of Xuyang is very satisfied with the Jin family and Jin Ying, she actually considered the Jin family for a long time, but she also knew that Sister He was not a demure person, she was afraid that the Jin family would not like it, and she would be wronged after marrying, so she didn't take the initiative to mention it, and now the Jin family took the initiative to ask for marriage, and the eldest princess was very happy, but Sister He was a little unwilling." ”

Gu Huanyi was surprised and asked, "Why is this?" ”

"She said that Jin Ying was a nerd and had a very boring temperament." Qiao Jingyun sighed and said, "But Sister He is like a child in marriage, and she doesn't know what is the most important thing at all." I was anxious to watch, so I wanted to beg you, can you invite Sister He as a guest this time, let them have more contact with each other, get to know each other first, don't miss a good marriage, and don't form a grudge. ”

Gu Huanyi felt that Qiao Jingyun's consideration was very reasonable, and nodded: "Why not, I'll send a post to Sister He." ”

Before, because it was to invite Li Congxin's righteous brother, Gu Huanyi did not ask He Guangling, but if she and Jin Ying had this fate in it, of course they had to call her together.

Gu Huanyi originally wanted to set the small banquet on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, but there was a banquet in the palace that day, and Li Congxin couldn't get out, so the small banquet in Gu's house was set one day in advance on the fourteenth day of the first month.

On this day, Cui Jingxuan and Jin Ying came with heavy gifts to thank her for saving her life in Changzhou many years ago.

Gu Huanyi saw Jin Ying for the first time, and looked at him with a bit of help in his girlfriend's eyes to examine her husband.

Jin Ying is the youngest of their sworn brothers, just eighteen years old, but she looks even smaller, a quiet scholar, and a well-behaved teenager.

Gu Huanyi rarely saw such a boy, and she whispered to Qiao Jingyun: "If this family business is done, I am really afraid that Sister He will bully the fourth brother." ”

Qiao Shi was amused by her and laughed, and in the midst of the joke, a word spread at the door that Miss He had arrived.

When Jin Ying heard this, she immediately stood up and asked crampedly, "Did Miss Gu invite Miss He today?" ”

Gu Huan said narrowly: "I forgot to tell you before, I thought that Miss He was familiar with the two princes and Sister Qiao, so I invited them to get together." Is there anything inconvenient about Young Master Jin? ”

Kim Young sat back in his seat with a red face and said, "No, no." ”

He Guangling strode in and greeted everyone with a smile: "It's so lively, am I late?" ”

She is familiar with Li Congxin and Cui Jingxuan, that is, she doesn't know Wu Lie and Jin Ying very well.

Gu Huanyi gave them an introduction, and He Guangling began to look at Jin Ying unscrupulously, and made other people's faces red.

He Guangling smiled when he saw this, and after sitting in the guest seat, he stopped looking at him.

In order to prepare for today's banquet, Gu Huanyi invited the cook of Defu Building to her home, and the dishes on the table were all prepared by her.

Qiao's family followed her mother-in-law to learn from the family, and when she saw this, she couldn't help but praise: "Sister Gu has put a lot of thought into preparing these, and every dish is so painstaking." ”

Some ingredients are rare, some broths have to be boiled a few days in advance, and some knife workers are particularly particular about plating, and a table of dishes is no worse than the grade of their Hou Mansion.

Gu Huanyi said with a smile: "You are the closest person in the world, and you are like relatives to me, so naturally you should take the best things out to entertain." ”

When Cui Jingxuan heard this, he became interested and said, "Miss Gu said this well!" Let's take a closer look! Savor it! ”

Gu Huanyi was stunned, she was a little speechless, and she looked like she was already Li Congxin's daughter-in-law.

She said shyly: "Isn't so much food enough for Cui Shizi to eat?" Sister Qiao, you don't care about him? ”

Qiao Jingyun smiled: "This can't be managed, my father-in-law is not wrong." ”

"Okay, you guys, the husband and wife are bullying me!" Gu Huanyi did not follow.

Li Congxin couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll help you, and I'll help you get it back in a while." ”

The joke here was very lively, Jin Ying saw that He Guangling didn't eat much, and took the initiative to serve her a bowl of sweet soup.

He Guangling glanced at it and said lightly: "I don't like to eat sweets." ”

Jin Ying was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Then do you want to try this fish soup?" It's delicious. ”

He Guangling said: "I don't like to eat fish. ”

Jin Ying was a little frustrated, everyone is a smart person, he understood He Guangling's attitude, so he no longer took the initiative to talk.

Gu Huanyi noticed the situation here, and slightly frowned in his heart.

In the afternoon, Li Congxin invited the brothers to the chess room to play a game, and Gu Huanyi entertained Qiao Jingyun and He Guangling to go to the courtyard to enjoy the plums.

Because it was Qiao's idea, she took the initiative to ask, "Sister He, doesn't she like Young Master Jin?" You didn't say a few words, why are you so cold to him? ”

He Guangling slapped the plum branches in the yard in a bad mood, and said: "The person I admire is a manly husband, a hero who stands up to the sky, where is like him, he is crepe and weak, I just glanced at him, he blushed, like a big girl, it must be very useless!" ”

Qiao Jingyun was a little angry when she heard this, because she had been playing with He Guangling since she was a child, and said directly: "He is the grandson of Jin Shoufu and the person carefully cultivated by the Jin family. Young Master Jin is known for his talent in Zhulu Academy, but because he is low-key, he is said to be a useless person. You don't like it when we say you don't read, but you're too underestimated. ”

He Guangling turned his back and said, "I don't understand his goodness, let him find someone who can afford him, I don't like it anyway." ”

Gu Huan thought that both of them had a temperament, and persuaded on the side: "Young Master Jin is a little introverted, but he is shy and cramped because he has affection for you, maybe you will know how good he is if you contact him a few more times." But if you don't like this kind of person, you really can't ask for it, plus the arsenic of honey B, just get to know each other today, don't be angry. ”

Qiao Jingyun sighed, but after all, she was a guest at Gu Huanyi's house, so she didn't want to say more.

He Guangling was still a little temperamental, and he didn't want to stay with Jin Ying longer, so he went back early in the afternoon.

After sending him away, Qiao Jingyun said: "I really feel sorry for her, she has been spoiled by the eldest princess of Xuyang since she was a child, and she doesn't think about anything, she only cares if she likes it or not." The reputation of the eldest princess of Xuyang is outside, and some families dare not ask to marry Sister He because they are afraid of her. Sister He's status is not high, but she has a noble little aunt, with all due respect, some of them are not high, but they are not easy to say. Young Master Jin has such a good family background and talents, and he knows us well, if you miss him, there is no better one. ”

Gu Huanyi nodded and said: "The truth is right, but the emotional matter needs to be figured out by herself, and she can't force it, let's take a look at it on the side, maybe there will be a chance to turn around in the future." ”

Qiao Jingyun sighed, it can only be like this.
