Chapter 152: Boring
Afraid that the person who followed was still in the alley, Gu Yunjin told Nian Xia to go out and take a look.
Nian Xia walked to the west exit of the alley, looked left and right a few times, didn't look at anyone, and was about to turn back, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the figure sitting on the tea stall on the opposite street.
The man's face was facing the mouth of the alley, he was dressed in a navy blue coat, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, extremely upright, holding the reins in his hand, and a tall horse beside him, and he was sitting there, with a bowl of tea on the table.
From Nian Xia, she couldn't tell whether the person had touched the tea, but she felt that this person was particularly abrupt.
The tea stall is small, and the neighbors don't know about it, so it's not particularly clean.
A few steps further on, there is a teahouse, with the dress of the son, it is said that he will not sit on the tea stall.
Nian Xia glanced twice, returned to the courtyard, and said to Xu Lingyi: "Big girl, is it a son who wears navy blue and looks quite good?" ”
Xu Lingyi was stunned.
She was stared at by the man at the time, even through the hat, she felt very uncomfortable, and she really didn't pay close attention to the other party's appearance.
However, the man was indeed dressed in navy blue.
"Are you really there?" Xu Lingyi held his breath.
When Wei heard that the man was still guarding, his face turned red with anger.
Wu comforted her a few words, and said, "You should go from the east exit, in another quarter of an hour, the neighbors will be back, and there are many carriages coming in and out at that time, and he may not notice it." ”
Wei bowed his head and thanked him.
After sending Xu Lingyi and Wei away, Wu rubbed his eyebrows in distress and sighed: "There is really everything in this world, the eldest cousin is unlucky enough, one after another." ”
Gu Yunjin said: "It's best to be temporary, if you don't keep up today, you won't put it in your heart, what I'm most afraid of is that the road will go to the dark, and I will have to worry about it in the future." ”
Gu Yunjin has a deep understanding of this.
Wu Shi smiled and thought of Yang Xiyu.
On the fifth day of the seventh month, the county lord of Shou'an sent a post to Gu Yunjin, inviting her to get together on the Chinese New Year's Day.
According to previous years, the July Party of Wanshou Garden in the city will last from evening to midnight, and this July Party will be attended by nobles in Beijing, official families, or girls who are not known as relatives.
At the beginning, the July Club was for the old ladies and wives of the hairpin family to choose granddaughters-in-law and daughters-in-law, until more than 30 years ago, the current Queen Mother, the then Queen Mother Gao, opened her mouth and did not allow them to bring those idle thoughts to the July Meeting.
In her words, they are all lively and lively to worship the moon and beg, but in order to deal with people, they put up the shelves one by one, and they can't laugh uncontrollably, and they can't be presumptuous.
There are also those who disagree, and Queen Gao can't raise her head in a few words.
She said, "What were you like in your boudoir in the past, didn't you count it in your own heart?" Now that I'm married and a grandmother and mother, it's strange to turn around and ask young girls. Anyang was ten years old and followed her brothers to climb the palace wall to steal wine and drink, you praised her for her athletic skills, so why did you go to the July Party to prevent others from eating and drinking?
Having said it all like this, who would dare to say more?
And which one is so square in the boudoir that there is no bias to find fault with?
Since then, there have been only girls at the July meeting, and not a single woman has been seen.
The annual excitement is also what the girls are looking forward to the most.
Gu Yunjin has also been with Xu Lingjie and Xu Lingyi before, and on the first Qixi Festival after she arrived in the capital, she honestly followed Xu Lingjie to see the freshness of Wanshou Garden, and the lights in the garden were fresher.
But the back garden of Wanshou Garden, which is prepared for the girls from the royal family, occasionally the princesses also come to participate, there is no post, and the daughters of the official family can't enter.
The county lord of Shou'an is coming back, she and the county lord of Changping both love to be lively, and they usually want to make trouble when there is no banquet, let alone such a legitimate opportunity.
On the evening of Qixi Festival, Gu Yunjin arrived at Wanshou Garden.
This garden was completed when Emperor Gaozu was sixty-six years old, and it is luxurious and exquisite.
Gu Yunjin followed the maid for a short while, and didn't meet anyone along the way, so she realized that the road she was taking now was different from when she came before.
Here in the back garden, almost all of them are girls from the Gonghou Bofu family, Gu Yunjin doesn't recognize much, and after talking to the three sisters of the Cheng family for a while, she found that many people here are looking at her.
For them, Gu Yunjin is obviously a new face.
"Which sister is this, born with strange eyes!" One person walked over, and he didn't look at the three sisters of the Cheng family, just stared straight at Gu Yunjin.
Gu Yunjin doesn't twist either, people can watch it if they like it, anyway, she looks good, are you still afraid of people looking at her?
Cheng Siniang pulled Gu Yunjin's sleeve and said in a low voice, "From the Weiguo Mansion." ”
The man didn't have a smile on his face, but stubbornly asked, "What about you, who is it like this?" ”
Gu Yunjin said: "My grandfather is Gu Jin, the general of Zhenbei. ”
With that, everyone knew Gu Yunjin's identity.
The man snorted without smiling: "Why did the girl from the General's Mansion come here?" Your two cousins should be in front, right? ”
At this point, it is clear whether the other party is good or hostile.
Gu Yunjin didn't know how she provoked the people of the Patriotic Mansion at all, but she was not a reluctant character, and smiled: "I came in with a post." ”
As soon as the voice fell, a familiar voice came from the other room.
"I gave the post, can't I?" The county lord of Shou'an walked over quickly, and the county lord of Changping came with her, and she stood beside Gu Yunjin, "Liu Yuan, I brought someone here, do you want you to nod?" ”
The atmosphere is tense.
Gu Yunjin looked at Shou'an, and only felt that the little girl's proud appearance with her chin was very cute, and she couldn't help but want people to tickle her.
But when she thought that the little girl was helping her speak, she was still holding back, afraid that she would really scratch it, and Shou An would jump up.
Liu Yuan had a calm face and snorted: "You have made friends with everyone, I remember that you used to be very good with Miss Ruan from Zihua Publishing House." ”
Ruan Xin used to be a talented woman, but now her name is not good, Liu Yuan is talking about this, obviously it is the face of Luo Shou'an.
Shou An puffed out his cheeks and opened his mouth to speak, but was stopped by Gu Yunjin.
Being in the center of the war, Gu Yunjin was the most comfortable one, she asked Liu Yuan with a smile: "Miss Liu, am I good-looking?" ”
Such a bold question made everyone stunned for a while.
Liu Yuan looked at Gu Yunjin in disbelief, obviously not knowing how she could ask such a question.
Gu Yunjin's face did not change, and asked, "Am I good-looking?" ”
Rao is Liu Yuan was unhappy, and it was not easy to talk nonsense, so he replied dryly: "Good-looking...... Why are you so shameless, what's there to ask. ”
"I'm just asking you to tell the truth, but it's like a beating, it's boring!" Gu Yunjin pursed his lips.
