Chapter 227: No Hurry, No Impatience
The night was dark.
Gu Yunjin had dinner and went back to the East Cross Courtyard first.
Fu Dong was doing needlework in front of the candlelight, and when he saw Gu Yunjin coming back, he got up to serve, and was pulled aside by Nian Xia.
Without the help of Lady Jia, the movement here could not be concealed from Fudong, Nian Xia was afraid that she would be shocked, so she told her the matter first.
Fu Dong's eyes widened, he turned his head to look straight at Gu Yunjin for a while, and then turned to stare at Nian Xia.
"You mean......" As soon as the words came out, Fu Dong noticed that her voice was heavy, she was so surprised that she didn't control it for a while, she quickly closed her mouth and took a few deep breaths, then she muttered and bit her ear, "You mean, the little grandfather will come over at night?" When he was in Pearl Lane, he came twice at night? ”
Nian Xia nodded and said, "I handed the message to Aunt Jia, and I just brought the letter there, saying that the little grandfather is coming tonight." ”
Fu Dong frowned, a pair of fists clenched tightly, her heart was in a mess, she wanted to take a few more steps in the house, and she was afraid of annoying her own girl, so she simply pushed Nian Xia out of the house and walked back and forth along the corridor three times.
The little grandfather came to look for the girl at night, which is definitely not good, even during the day.
As a maid, this kind of thing ......
In addition to helping the girl hide this kind of thing, what else can she do?
The queen mother has dialed, and wants the girl to marry the little grandfather, not to mention that this family affair is a certainty, it is also seventy or eighty percent, she jumped out to cause trouble for the girl at this time, then she is knocking her head and knocking stupid.
What really annoyed Fu Dong was actually her ignorance.
The little grandfather has been here twice in the summer, and she has been strictly hidden in the dark, and she is happy to win two copper plates in the horse hanging.
Take care of one or the other!
Fling away a sprat to catch a herring!
Fu Dong paused and looked at Nian Xia.
Nian Xia fights the little girl, Lao Tzu Niang is doing things for the general's mansion, and Fu Dong is the son of the Xu family, and now the deed is in the hands of the girl, but she understands that she is different from Nian Xia.
In the past, the girls looked like they were treated, but when they really encountered major events, they still relied on Nian Xia more.
This is human nature, Fu Dong is not surprised, but a little sad.
She stepped forward and grabbed Nian Xia's sleeve and said, "What's the matter next time, don't hide it from me, okay?" I'm sure I'm with the girl. The girl said that she wanted to take a step, and I followed, and when the girl said that she wanted to leave the Shilang's house, I followed, and I listened to the girl's ......."
Fu Dong's voice was full of grievances, and Nian Xia hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, the first time, Aunt Jia asked you to go to the horse hanging, the girl and I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't understand until the little grandfather came." When I see you again the next day, I don't know how to speak, I hesitate and hesitate, and I have been ...... until now."
Fu Dong pursed her lips, she knew that this matter had nothing to do with Nian Xia, she was all a maid, the girl didn't mention it, and Nian Xia wouldn't make her own opinions.
She thought about it, turned around and went into the house to Gu Yunjin, and said, "Girl, don't worry, the slave will definitely not be surprised." ”
Gu Yunjin was flipping through the notebook casually, and smiled when he heard the words: "Then you look at the wind tonight." ”
Fu Dong nodded hurriedly.
said that it was Wangfeng, but no one knew what time Jiang Muyuan came over, and the message he brought did not explain it.
Compared with summer, the sky darkens earlier in winter, and it is already dark outside, so it is much easier to move around than on summer nights, and there is more time to spare.
Xu is what he wants to say today is too important, Nian Xia and Fu Dong are a little restless, and when they go to see Gu Yunjin, they find that their girls are not much better.
Don't look at Gu Yunjin sitting there motionless, the words in front of her haven't turned the page for a long time, her eyes don't know where they fall, she has already lost her mind.
The candle flame dimmed.
Fu Dong got up, took the scissors and plucked the wick, and the room suddenly brightened up a lot.
She was facing the window, and in the candlelight, suddenly a figure was reflected in the window, and she was so frightened that the scissors almost slipped off, but fortunately it quickly stabilized.
Pointing to the window, Fu Dong Chong Nian Xia squeezed his eyebrows for a while.
Nian Xia didn't understand for a while, and when she looked at the window, there was already a knock on the door.
The person who came knocked very lightly, even in the cold winter night, this sound was very small, and if it couldn't be transmitted, it was probably remembered in his heart, this sound was infinitely amplified, like a drum, so startled that Gu Yunjin sat up straight.
Nian Xia went to open the door lightly, and sure enough, it was Jiang Muyuan outside, and she hurriedly turned sideways to let people in.
Fu Dong followed the arrangement and went back to the house where she lived, which was close to the Moon Cave Gate connected to the main courtyard, and if there was any movement, she could find out as soon as possible.
Jiang Muyuan stood in the middle room and did not immediately go inside.
In order to facilitate his movements, he did not have a cloak or cloak on his head, and he brought a lot of cold air all the way over.
He didn't feel cold, but his chest was hot, but he didn't want the cold to rush at Gu Yunjin, so he waited a little longer.
Nian Xia came out with a cup of hot tea from it, Jiang Muyuan took it to warm his hands, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Gu Yunjin standing behind Nian Xia.
Gu Yunjin stood on the edge of the floor cover, and her originally unclear thoughts became even more chaotic when she met Jiang Muyuan's gaze, and she pursed her lower lip vigorously: "It's warmer inside." ”
With that, she turned and went back inside.
Jiang Muyuan drank the hot tea, followed Gu Yunjin inside, and sat down on the other side of the wooden kang.
Gu Yunjin's fingers in the cuffs subconsciously twisted.
The first two times, Jiang Muyuan also talked to her and played chess like this, she was frank at that time, and she didn't feel any charm, but now her heart is weak, and she is clearly separated by a few children, but it seems to have become next to her.
Obviously, in the past, in the Baiyun Temple, she shared an umbrella, and she could calmly talk to him for a long time......
Jiang Muyuan read Gu Yunjin's evasion, he was not surprised, the little girl was suddenly clicked through, and it was certain that she was uneasy, but it was a good thing to be willing to sit down and talk openly and honestly with him.
But right now, she still seems to be too nervous.
Jiang Muyuan glanced at the furnishings in the room.
The layout is similar to that in Pearl Alley, except that the things on the shelves are almost different, he found the chessboard, got up and put it open, pushed the chess basket to Gu Yunjin's hand, and said, "Let's play chess first, didn't you say that you found a way to crack the chess game?" ”
Between the vertical and horizontal, black and white fell in turn.
The first hundred hands are back and forth, Gu Yunjin has studied back and forth for a long time, even if his thoughts are still mixed, he can fall step by step.
The room was quiet, only the crisp sound of falling children, neither light nor heavy, not impatient.
Gu Yunjin gradually calmed down in this falling voice, and his whole person was much more relaxed, his gaze slowly followed the fingers holding chess, and finally landed on Jiang Muyuan's face.
