The princess of Bei'an County waited for Yan Qingyi to stop, and then said: "Yi'er, this marriage is fixed, don't cry." Let's wait a little longer, waiting for news from the Gu family. ”

Yan Qingyi still lay on the table and didn't look up.

The princess of Bei'an County continued: "Don't be presumptuous, your father is the king of Bei'an County, and your cousin is now also Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, and you marry the second son of the Hou Mansion, which is not considered a high climb." ”

Seeing that Yan Qingyi listened, the princess of Bei'an County said again: "If the Gu family really has a heart, they will ask the sixth prince or the old prince to come to the door to propose." If they don't move, we'll consider your marriage. ”

Hearing her mother say this, Yan Qingyi raised her eyes that were swollen into walnuts and nodded silently.

Heavy snow closed the road, making it inconvenient to come and go.

It wasn't until the twenty-ninth of the lunar month that Gu Fanghua received a letter from the capital.

A thick stack, there are Yan Rongling's, Yan Shaoxun's, Gu Shinian, Yan Changxin and Zhong family brothers and sisters.

Xiao Yao and Zhong Zibin's injuries are almost healed. Today, everyone gathered together in Kiyoba-in. Prepare for the New Year's holiday in advance and have a lively shabu-shabu.

The hot pot was ingredient by Yan Changxin himself, and he also made a lot of good dishes, which made everyone feel like they were back in Zuiyuelou.

Everyone sat around the round table, in addition to the seven people they came, there was also Ye Shisan, who had made a great contribution this time.

Yan Rongling took the lead in raising his glass and said with a smile: "Tomorrow's banquet is a state banquet, and many people will be invited to the banquet to be presided over by Old General Xiao. Today's gathering is our own banquet. Before this banquet, the first glass of wine, I want to salute Ye Thirteen, I want to thank him for traveling day and night, and rushed to Shanhaiguan at a critical moment. saved Mingzhu, and everyone here. ”

Ye 13 hurriedly got up and excused himself: "The sixth prince praised it." I just did what I did, and the lord of Mingzhu County had a life-saving grace for me. I'm just broken bones, and it's hard to repay it. ”

Gu Fanghua is dressed very festively today, with a palace dress woven with red brocade and a set of red gold phoenix on her head, which makes her look radiant.

She smiled and said to Ye Thirteen: "Thirteen, I only saved two lives for you and your sister, but you saved seven of our lives." It's also a good deal for us, so thank you. ”

Gu Fanghua said, Xiao Yao and they all raised their glasses and saluted Ye Thirteen together.

Ye Shisan excused himself again and again, but Zhong Zibin grabbed him with a big grin. smiled: "Don't shirk it." Since everyone is friends, this glass of wine is dry. ”

The other eight people all raised their glasses and saluted Ye Thirteen.

Ye Shisan saw that these nobles and nobles of the sky, the pride of the sky, were sincerely grateful to himself, and his heart was also moved.

"Ye 13 can't speak, I'll do this wine first!"

After everyone drank the wine in the cup happily, Xiao Yao also stood up and said, "This time I originally invited you to come to Liaodong as a guest. As a result, everyone didn't eat and have fun, and they were still facing the line of life and death. I, the host, did not do well, and punished myself with three cups. ”

Everyone looked at it with a smile and accompanied a drink.

It was Gu Fanghua who got up this time, she held the blue and white porcelain wine glass in her slender hand, and said with respect to the whole table: "On Shanhaiguan, the friendship of everyone living and dying together, I Gu Fanghua will never forget." Brother Rong Ling and Ye Shisan, day and night, the friendship of galloping and helping, I also remember it in my heart. I only hope that every year there will be tonight, and everyone will be with you every year. ”

"Everybody's here."

Nine people raised a glass together and drank it all.

Gu Fanghua put down the wine glass and looked at the empty position, a little gloomy for a while. Yan Rongling has been paying attention to Gu Fanghua, and when he saw this, he knew that he remembered Yan Qihuo.

"Mingzhu, don't worry. The ninth brother is all right, and his father is doing this to protect him. ”

Gu Fanghua smiled back at Yan Rongling and said softly: "I just think that happy times are so short, and we must cherish every moment." ”

Zhong Taojiao took a bite of the sour and spicy phoenix claws, and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, if you like it, we can get together like this every year." ”

Zhong Zibin also smiled: "Yes, maybe later, no!" Soon, I couldn't sit down at this table. ”

After speaking, Zhong Zibin also looked at Gu Shinian meaningfully.

Gu Shinian blushed slightly, and chuckled: "It's okay to get together every year, but I'm afraid that I will have to divide the men's and women's seats in the future." ”

Zhong Taojiao was not happy, and shouted: "Second brother, you are too pedantic." It's not that you don't know each other, what does it matter if you sit together? Long letter, don't you say? ”

Yan Changxin could only say anything: "Yes, what Jiaojiao says is what it is!" ”

In this way, his wife has not passed the door, and Yan Changxin, who looks like a wife and slave, has caused everyone to laugh. Yan Rongling sighed: "The husband is not vibrating, the husband is not vibrating!" ”

Zhong Taojiao didn't care, and shouted: "Don't just laugh at Changxin, I don't believe it when Mingzhu marries Xiao Yao in the future." Can Xiao Yao still reverse Mingzhu's words? ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally lively round table was instantly silent.

Yan Rongling smiled reluctantly, trying to maintain her demeanor, Yan Shaoxun's smile was sour, and she looked like she was watching a good show. Ye Shisan was slightly gloomy, Xiao Yao was a little nervous, and looked at Gu Fanghua with a smile.

Gu Fanghua glanced at Zhong Taojiao, and didn't know what to say for a while.

It was still Gu Shinian who played a round and said: "Jiaojiao, pay attention to what you say in the future." Mingzhu is different from you, you and Changxin are an unmarried couple, and both parents have recognized it. Mingzhu has to wait for the Queen Mother's arrangement, and Xiao Yao will have to keep filial piety for three years. ”

Zhong Taojiao realized that she had missed her mouth, and hurriedly said: "It's me talking nonsense, I'll punish myself." ”

Everyone talked and laughed again, diverting the topic.

Everyone ate this meal until Hai Shi, and then they said goodbye to each other, and each returned to the room with a letter from the capital.

Gu Fanghua first opened the letter from the Queen Mother's grandmother, which babbled about the trivial things that she was afraid that she would not eat and wear well, and also wrote a lot of interesting stories about Cining Palace.

In the end, he wrote hatefully: You girl, you encountered such a big thing when you went out, and you almost broke thousands of miles away. Doesn't it make the old woman of the mourning family feel painful? When you come back, you don't want to go out again. Be careful all the way back, take your time, and put safety first.

Gu Fanghua smiled and bent her eyebrows, read the letter from the Queen Mother's grandmother back and forth twice, and then said, "Danzhu, my grandmother misses me." ”

"Of course, I don't know what you scared the Queen Mother this time."

Gu Fanghua was also a little scared, and said to Danzhu: "It's really thanks to Ye Thirteen, if he is one step late, I may die." ”

"The county lord is blessed with heaven, and the Ji people have their own heavenly appearance. If it weren't for the county lord saving Lord Ye first, Lord Ye wouldn't have rushed to the back desperately. ”

Danzhu's words, Zimei also agreed: "At that time, the slave maid still felt that the county lord had lost money by buying Lord Ye. Now I know that Lord Ye is a genius, and the county lord has bought a right-hand man. ”

Gu Fanghua nodded, a little proud: "Of course, Ye Shisan is a talented person who can assist Brother Rong Ling in the future." ”
