"Can you please grandmother?" When Gu Xiaoye heard this, she looked at Gu Yuetong as if she didn't know her.

You must know that the old lady of the ancient family is eighty years old this year, but she is not in Kyoto, but in Nanyang's hometown for a thousand years.

"Yes, it's grandma, she has a noble status as an old man, even if the emperor sees her in the palace, she also has to be courteous, and she will come forward to set a family affair for her sister, which is the best, I believe that grandma's vision will never be too bad." Gu Yuetong smiled slightly and said.

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, he couldn't help but ponder, it seemed that he seemed to be moved by Gu Yuetong.

"Brother, it's best to be able to fight without blood, it's all the flesh and blood of the family, why bother to die on the road?" Gu Yuetong said eloquently: "My relationship with her has always been very good on the surface, and in the future, my grandmother will find her a good family, and in the future, she will become another help for me, and I don't know." ”

"Can you please grandmother?" When Gu Xiaoye heard this, she looked at Gu Yuetong as if she didn't know her.

Gu Yuetong smiled slightly and said.

Gu Yuetong said eloquently: "My relationship with her has always been very good on the surface, and in the future, my grandmother will find her a good family, and in the future, she will become another help for me, and I don't know." ”

Gu Xiaoye was quite surprised when he heard this, he always felt that his sister was too naïve and too kind, so he didn't feel at ease when he stayed at the border, and he would send a letter back every month to teach her Chunchun, but he didn't expect that Gu Yuetong would be able to say such vigorous words today!

Is this still his former sister? Gu Xiaoye felt that from now on, she would be impressed by Gu Yuetong.

"Brother, you agree with what I said, right?" Gu Yuetong asked with a smile.

Gu Xiaoye looked at Gu Yuetong's eyes full of anticipation, he really couldn't bear to hit his sister's enthusiasm, he thought about it for a while, and then said: "But, grandma, she is far away in Nanyang, no matter how many mundane things have been done for so many years, how can she be invited to arrange a marriage for Ruoxiye?" ”

"This is relieved, it's on me." Gu Yuetong patted her chest and promised: "At most, in less than half a year, grandma will return to Kyoto from Nanyang."

Come in, and my sister's family affairs will also be settled. ”

"The family matter set by my grandmother, it's not something that anyone can regret if they want to." Gu Xiaoye said in a quiet tone. As he spoke, he sighed, and his expression finally relaxed.

The brother and sister had decided on the topic, so they stopped the topic and moved on to something else.

In the evening, Jinye Hou also came back early, and the family gathered around to wash the dust for Gu Xiaoye, and at the dinner table, Gu Yuetong once again talked about the trip to Huguo Temple.

"Mother, my sister's body is almost good during this time, and it just so happens that my brother is also back, otherwise, we will go to Huguo Temple tomorrow, right?"

Gu Ruoxi knew that he couldn't hide, so he sat aside and drank tea with his head down, and didn't say anything.

Hearing this, Mrs. Jinye Hou looked up at her eldest daughter who was full of interest, then turned her head to Gu Xiaoye and asked, "Xiao'er, what do you mean?" ”

Gu Xiaoye naturally agreed, and just as he wanted to nod his head in agreement, Jinye Hou on the side frowned and said: "Shangxiang is a matter of the woman's family, what is a young man fooling around?" Zhong Yuan, the son of Lord Zhong, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, didn't he say yesterday that he was going to Wangjiang Tower for tea? ”

"What Dad said is, look at me, I almost forgot such an important thing." When Gu Xiaoye heard this, he immediately said with some embarrassment. As he spoke, he turned his head and smiled apologetically at Sister Gu Yuetong: "I'm sorry, my brother can't accompany you to incense tomorrow." There was a hint of regret in his tone.

Gu Yuetong was immediately unhappy, she pouted and just wanted to be coquettish to her father, but at this moment, Mrs. Jinye Hou on the side spoke again: "Xiao'er has to go." ”

There was a sudden silence in the room.

"Mother, great!" The next moment, Gu Yuetong was ecstatic and jumped up and hugged Mrs. Jinye Hou: "I only know that I can't bear my brother's ......."

However, when Jinye Hou heard this, his face showed a slight look of surprise: "Madam, why is this?" ”

Gu Ruoxi and Gu Xiaoye also looked at their mother in surprise, they really didn't know how she could suddenly say such a thing.

"Master Hou, if you don't care about Xiao'er's lifelong affairs, don't you allow me to care about it myself?" Mrs. Jinye Hou listened to her husband's question, and suddenly said unhurriedly: "Xiao'er is already twenty years old this year, in this capital, which son-in-law has not yet married at this time?" I have already made an appointment with Mrs. Xu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to meet in Huguo Temple, and she will bring her daughter with her, and I will take Xiao'er to see each other. ”

"What? Mother, do you want to show your brother a daughter-in-law? Gu Yuetong was suddenly quite surprised, and then she seemed to remember something, and immediately frowned: "The daughter of Mrs. Xu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites...... Mother, you can't choose her for your brother! ”

"Why is that?" This time, it was Mrs. Kageba's turn to be surprised.

"Does that need to be said? When I was young, my mother took me

went out to attend the banquet, this Miss Xu once threw her daughter with pastries! Soiled my daughter's clothes! Gu Yuetong said angrily.

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she almost couldn't help laughing, when she was a child, Gu Yuetong actually held a grudge until now! This is too small, isn't it? With a smile, the smile on Gu Ruoxi's face slowly disappeared.

At first glance, this sounds ridiculous, but when you think about it, it is terrifying.

Gu Yuetong can even hold a grudge against such a small thing until now, how narrow should her mind be?

Gu Ruoxi didn't dare to imagine it, but she knew that she must not offend this little ancestor of the Gu family in the future.

Jin Ye Hou sat aside with a thoughtful expression, his man's family was rough, and he had never thought about his son's family affairs, but at this moment his wife mentioned it, he also felt that there was a little bit of reason, so he sat with his youngest daughter and was silent.

"Tong'er, you have to take care of things that are so far away." Mrs. Jinye Hou smiled helplessly, reached out and stroked her eldest daughter's sideburns, and said softly: "That Miss Xu was a little playful when she was a child, but now she has grown up, knowledgeable, gentle and courteous, and beautiful people, she is a girl who is a girl from many big families in the capital who are vying to marry home, and it took a lot of effort for her mother to get Mrs. Xu to agree to this matter, Tong'er, don't make trouble anymore." ”

When Gu Yuetong heard this, although she was still unwilling on her face, she finally lowered her head and remained silent. For Mrs. Jinye Hou, she still respects her opinion.

But at this moment, Gu Xiaoye on the side spoke: "Mother, this matter is pushed!" Since my sister doesn't like her, let's stop it, and don't mention this matter in the future. ”

"Xiao'er, how can this be?!" When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she immediately became angry: "It took a lot of money for my mother to talk about this matter, and now she will push it, isn't this going to offend Mrs. Xu?" ”

Jin Ye Hou also interjected on the side: "Xiao'er, don't do this!" The lifelong event of free parents is the master, what is Guan Tong'er? As long as Miss Xu is a good one, she will definitely get along with her sister in the future. I'm getting older, but I can't delay any longer. ”

"Dad, with our status as a first-class duke of the Jinye Houfu, as well as my son's military exploits for so many years, if you want to marry a woman from a famous family as a wife, it is not a matter at all!" Gu Xiaoye sneered and said, "What is the daughter of her Xu family?" I don't care about it yet! ”

"Then the mother must always say what she says

Counts, right? Mrs. Jinye Hou slowly spoke in the face of her son's arrogant gaze: "If you don't go to Huguo Temple this time, then my mother will not be able to raise her head in the capital from now on." ”

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Okay, mother, I promise, I will go to Huguo Temple tomorrow to see Miss Xu of Nalaoshizi!" “。

Gu Yuetong

When she opened her mouth and was about to mumble, Mrs. Jinye Hou's gaze swept away, and she suddenly fell silent.

"You two, it's really uneasy!" Mrs. Jinye Hou sighed, turned her head and looked at Gu Ruoxi, who had never spoken much, with a kind face, and said, "Xi'er, how do you feel about your body?" Relaxed or not? ”

Gu Ruoxi no longer wanted to carry out the trick of pretending to be sick, and immediately replied when she heard the words: "Mother, I'm fine, don't worry, I can hold it up if I go to Huguo Temple tomorrow." ”

"Yes, mother, my sister is already well, so don't worry about it anymore." Gu Yuetong walked over, took Gu Ruoxi's hand, and said with a smile.

Mrs. Kazuba Hou looked at the intimate appearance of the two daughters, and couldn't help but smile dotingly.

"Mother is still not at ease, tomorrow's trip, let Mama Zhang bring a doctor to follow her!"

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoye's eyes suddenly showed a strange gaze, which was captured by Gu Ruoxi.

A hint of bad premonition suddenly appeared in her heart.

After dinner, Jin Ye waited to go to the study in the front yard, and Gu Yuetong took her to Gu Xiaoye's Songtao Courtyard to play, but Gu Ruoxi refused.

"Sister, I won't go, I'm going to Huguo Temple tomorrow to make incense, I have to recuperate."

Hearing this, Gu Yuetong agreed very happily: "Okay, go, recuperate, tomorrow's trip can not be delayed." As he spoke, he called Ruyi, the personal maid beside him, to personally send Gu Ruoxi back to Luomeiju.

Gu Yuetong herself only sat in Gu Xiaoye's courtyard for a while before leaving. After all, it's night, even if it's a brother or sister, you have to pay attention to the impact.

Nothing was said all night. No one knew what the two brothers and sisters of the Gu family discussed.

Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Ruoxi was woken up by Jin Se, she got out of bed to change her clothes, and after washing, she sat in her flower hall to eat breakfast. Compared to eating with Gu Yuetong and others, she would rather stay alone.

The breakfast was very rich, with shrimp dumplings, steamed cakes, steamed buns, side dishes, and a big bowl of high-quality bird's nest porridge waiting for Gu Ruoxi to drink. Jin Se stood aside, very skillfully preparing dishes for Gu Ruoxi, and said in a low voice: "Second Miss, who are you going to take to Huguo Temple today?" The slave maid asked yesterday, the four big maids around the wife, the two second-class maids, and a few housekeepers and mothers-in-law all went, and the eldest lady also brought Ruyi, Chunxing, Qiulan and a few other big maids......"

"Let's go with me." Gu Ruoxi didn't wait for Jin Se to finish speaking, and then said lightly.

"Yes, miss." Jin Se replied. The expression was very respectful, and she didn't get carried away at all because the master only took her alone.

"Okay, stand down, are all my clothes ready or something?" Gu Ruoxi took a sip of porridge and suddenly looked up and asked.

Jin Se immediately replied: "Back to Miss, it was ready yesterday." Liuli has already led a few generals

The package was delivered to the carriage we were riding, and now we are waiting for you, Miss. ”

Gu Ruoxi nodded and said no more.

After a while, she finished her breakfast, and Jin Se waited for her to rinse her mouth, rearrange her makeup, and then slowly walked out of Luomei House to Mrs. Jinye Hou's Jinghong Courtyard by her side.

When she got there, Gu Ruoxi saw that Gu Yuetong had already arrived early, and she was accompanying Mrs. Jinye Hou to dinner, and she was busy inviting Ye.

"To my mother, my sister, please leaves."

"Xi'er, don't be polite, have you had breakfast? Eat with your mother? Mrs. Jinye Hou smiled and beckoned to Gu Ruoxi.

Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said, "Mother, because I want to drink medicine, I have already eaten breakfast." ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she ordered the eldest girl Qiulan beside her to make tea. Gu Ruoxi sat down on the chair in the flower hall because of this, she looked around, and saw that there was no shadow of Gu Xiaoye, and she was a little surprised in her heart.

"Don't look at it, my brother hasn't finished practicing his sword yet, so naturally he won't be here." Gu Yuetong turned her head and looked at Gu Ruoxi with a grin.

"I see." Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but suddenly realize.

But it wasn't until Mrs. Jinye Hou and Gu Yuetong finished breakfast and began to sort out their makeup and prepare to leave, that Gu Xiaoye walked in from outside sweating profusely.

"Big brother!" Gu Yuetong suddenly walked over with excitement on her face, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his head for him.

When Mrs. Jinye Hou saw him coming, she hurriedly asked, "Xiao'er, have you had breakfast?" ”

Gu Xiaoye nodded and said, "It's already used." ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she immediately responded: "Okay, it's not early, let's hurry up and pack up our things and let's go!" ”

Everyone nodded.

A quarter of an hour later, everyone appeared at the gate of the Hou Mansion, where there were already five or six carriages parked, with a glass roof, wrapped in silk on all sides, and the gold-inlaid windows were covered by a curtain of light blue crepe, which looked gorgeous, and beside the carriage, there were already a number of people in the mansion.

Sure enough, it was a rich and noble family traveling, and the momentum was really huge. Gu Ruoxi had never seen such a scene, and was suddenly shocked and couldn't take his eyes off, at this moment, he only heard Mrs. Jinye Hou smiling and instructing the three brothers and sisters: "Xiao'er, go and take the first carriage......

"Mother, I'll just ride a horse! I'm not used to sitting in this carriage. Before Mrs. Jinye Hou finished speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Xiaoye.

"This kid!" Mrs. Kazuba smiled helplessly, and went with him.

Gu Xiaoye turned around and whistled at the gate, and soon, a snow-white horse came out of the door with trembling hooves, and the white was quite dazzling in the sun. Inside and outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on the snow-white horse.

Gu Xiaoye laughed proudly, stepped forward and grabbed the reins, turned over sharply, and rode up.

There were bursts of cheers all around, and Mrs. Jinye Hou glanced at her son dotingly, turned around and said to the two daughters beside her: "Tong'er, take the third carriage, and my sister take the fourth, how about it?" ”

Gu Yuetong has no opinion. When I used to travel, Mrs. Jinye Hou also arranged like this.

But unexpectedly, Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said, "Mother, I want to ride in a carriage with my sister!" ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she immediately turned around and glanced at her eldest daughter, and asked, "Tong'er, what do you think?" ”：

Gu Yuetong's eyes flashed suddenly, but she smiled and said, "Okay, it's nothing for me to ride in a carriage with my sister, anyway, the carriage is also very wide, we can still talk or something." ”

When Mrs. Kazuba heard this, she immediately nodded and said, "In that case, the two sisters will take a carriage!" ”

But at this moment, a loud shout sounded on the side: "I don't agree!" ”

Gu Ruoxi quickly looked up and saw that the person who spoke was Gu Xiaoye, it turned out that he had just ridden around on horseback, and he didn't know when he turned around again. Listened to all three of them.

Mrs. Jinye Hou suddenly asked a little strangely, "Xiao'er, why is this?" ”

"There are two young ladies in our family, and they should have sat in two carriages and let them sit together, what if others can't tell who is the sister and who is the sister?" Gu Xiaoye said expressionlessly: "This matter must not be done!" ”

"Pedantic!" Mrs. Jinye Hou suddenly said angrily: "As soon as the curtain of the carriage is lowered, who knows who is sitting in the carriage?" They have a good relationship with their sisters, so what's wrong with sitting together and chatting? ”
