Chapter 95: Shyness
Su Ruan nodded when she heard this, she wasn't afraid of life, she just didn't like to mix with too many people.
After a few people went upstairs, Pei Geng greeted him with a smile, he was a little strong, his face was chubby, and his eyes narrowed when he laughed: "Why did you kid come so late?" I thought you weren't coming. ”
Xie Huan and Xie Jiaojiao had both seen Pei Geng, and hurriedly saluted: "Brother Pei." ”
Su Ruan had also seen Pei Geng in his previous life.
It's the same chubby, kind talking, and looks silly, but in fact it's shrewd.
Pei Geng didn't like official careers, so he didn't enter the official career all his life, but he took over the family business of his maternal grandfather Tang Li and became the first imperial merchant in Dachen, and the silver in his hand was comparable to the national treasury, which can be described as rich and rivaled by the country.
Su Ruan also shouted, "Brother Pei." ”
Pei Geng greeted Xie Huan and Xie Jiaojiao with a smile, and then his eyes fell on Su Ruan, and there was a smear of surprise in his eyes.
The girl in front of her is not very old, but she is really good-looking, with big black and white eyes, moist and white cheeks, and pink lips when she is lightly raised, she can see how stunning she will be in the future.
Pei Geng suddenly got a lot closer: "You are Su Ruan's sister, right?" I've heard Qingheng talk about you several times, but I haven't had the chance to see you, and today I saw that it was really a sinking fish and a goose, and the immortals descended to earth......"
"Smack!"
Xie Qingheng slapped him directly: "Don't be flamboyant, what about the others?" ”
Pei Geng rubbed the back of his head and smiled: "It's inside, I'm waiting for you." ”
After Xie Qingheng and the others followed Pei Geng into the room over there, they saw that there were already a few people sitting in the spacious private room, in addition to Shen Tangxi, Zhou Qi and a few prisoners of Guozijian, there were also two young girls.
As soon as Su Ruan and the others entered, everyone inside looked over here.
When they saw Su Ruan's appearance, those people couldn't help but be stunned, and they returned to normal in just a moment.
Pei Geng said with a smile:
"Ah Tang, I won't introduce it to you, you all know each other, and the rest of them are all prisoners of Guozijian, Zhou Qi, Dou Bing, Ji Zhao, Guo Xiujie and Gong Shuangcheng."
"One of these two is my sister Pei Yun, and the other is Ji Zhao's sister Ji Nianhua."
After Pei Geng finished speaking, he pointed to Xie Huan and the others: "These three are Qingheng's sisters, Xie Huan, Xie Jiaojiao, and Su Ruan." ”
After everyone greeted each other, they were all young people, and they didn't mean to be unfamiliar.
Zhou Qi was the most out of his temperament, and said: "Qingheng, you're late, I made an appointment to watch the play together, and I was reluctant to take a few of your sisters out to meet us rough men." ”
Ji Zhao's appearance is similar to his name, he is particularly sunny when he laughs, and his big white teeth are easy to be favored: "You are a rough man, we are not, sister of the Xie family should ignore him." ”
"Hey, Ji Zhao, you're shameless, don't forget what you said before?"
Ji Zhao smiled very well: "You remember wrong, I only said the previous sentence." ”
Pei Geng laughed: "Ji Zhao, you are a layman." ”
Zhou Qi was so angry that he stretched out his hand to pat him.
Xie Huan and the others all pursed their lips and laughed.
Su Ruan looked at a few people with some curiosity, seeing Ji Zhao and Zhou Qi fighting, several teenagers next to him were all talking one after another, you made fun of Zhou Qi every word, even Xie Qingheng, who usually looked cold, had a smile in his eyes, obviously he had a very good relationship with several people.
She couldn't help but compare a few people with the ministers in the previous court.
She still remembers that Ji Zhao, a half-grown teenager with a bright smile, entered the Yushitai at the age of thirty, and his mouth was very powerful, and he didn't let go of people's pigtails, and directly scolded most of the court.
Guo Xiujie inherited his grandfather's legacy and became the young master of the dynasty.
Zhou Qi joined the army, and several other people also had their own successes.
In addition to Shen Tangxi, who disappeared and was said to have died, and Xie Qingheng, who died at the border pass, almost everyone in this group of teenagers in front of him later got ahead in the court and held high official positions.
Su Ruan thought of Xie Qingheng who had a dismal ending, and the smile on his face faded, but he suddenly saw Ji Zhao, who was playing with Zhou Qi over there, suddenly turned around.
The two looked at each other, and Su Ruan subconsciously smiled at him.
Ji Zhao, who was originally smiling, was shaken by her smile, and suddenly blushed, and quickly turned his head.
Su Ruan looked at the young man's red ears and was stunned, and the next moment he laughed out loud.
Is this shy?
"Ruan Ruan, what are you laughing at?" Xie Huan was curious.
Su Ruan smiled and said, "It's nothing. ”
She turned her head to look at Ji Nianhua and said, "Sister Ji, I didn't expect to meet again so soon." ”
Ji Nianhua still remembered what Su Ruan did yesterday when he was in the Anyang Palace, and he also smiled very close when he heard the words: "Yes, I didn't expect that the eldest brother said that he would take me out to watch the play, and he would actually meet you." ”
"I also told Chengyang yesterday that I would invite you to participate in the activities of the Poetry Club in a few days, and it would be best to see you today, and I would save you a post."
Ji Nianhua likes Su Ruan's temperament very much, and he can't help but feel close when he speaks.
Pei Yun next to her looked at them curiously: "Sister Ji, do you know each other?" ”
Ji Nianhua said: "Well, I only saw it in Anyang Wangfu yesterday. ”
Pei Yun had heard of Su Ruan before, but she only knew about the fight between her and Miss Lin Er in the He family.
Yesterday was Princess Anyang's birthday, she was going to go, but something in the mansion was delayed, so she didn't go with her mother, and what happened to Su Ruan and Guo Ruyi in Anyang Palace was also silenced, and it didn't spread for a while.
Pei Yun knows Ji Nianhua, he is of noble birth, his grandfather is an old man of the court, and his father is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
There are many people in Beijing who want to associate with her, but there are very few people who can be friends with Ji Nianhua.
Pei Yun and Ji Nianhua are only general friends, they only know that she has a good relationship with the lord of Chengyang County and the daughter of the Ye family, Ye Xuexian, but I didn't expect Ji Nianhua to be close to the stepdaughter of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, who has a bad reputation in this rumor.
When Pei Yun looked at Su Ruan, she couldn't help but be a little more curious: "I was delayed yesterday and didn't go to Anyang Palace, and now I look at Sister Ji like this, but what interesting things did I miss?" ”
Ji Nianhua didn't expect Pei Yun to be so keen, and couldn't help but glance at Su Ruan and Xie Huan.
After all, this matter is related to the Xie family, and she doesn't have much to say.
But Xie Huan felt that it was nothing.
So many people saw what happened yesterday, and they couldn't hide it at all, and it would spread sooner or later.
Seeing that Pei Yun was curious, she said directly: "It's nothing, it's just that we quarreled with Miss Guo from the Xinyang Hou Mansion for a few words, and finally moved in anger." ”
