Chapter 20: Change

Soon it was time for dinner, Gu Nianjiao had just finished dinner and put down her chopsticks.

I saw Qingyang walk in, stood in front of her, bowed down and said, "Miss, the master is here." ”

Gu Nianjiao gently wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and when she heard her say this, she grinned: "It's coming quite quickly." ”

Placing the handkerchief on the table: "Pack it up and welcome him in." ”

When Gu Min came in, he saw Gu Nianjiao leaning in front of the table, holding a book in her hand, and looking at it seriously.

Clenched his hands into fists, put them to his mouth and pretended to cough a few times to attract the girl's attention.

Sure enough, Gu Nianjiao put down the book, looked at him and said lightly: "It's father, sit here, hide it for nothing, and serve tea." ”

Gu Min sat down, looked at her, pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's rumored outside that you're raising noodles..."

It was spread like a nose and an eye, and everyone thought it was true.

"Does Father believe it?" Gu Nianjiao supported her head with her hands and looked at Gu Min with a smile on her face, but there was nothing in her eyes.

Gu Min saw her nonchalant, sighed, looked at her and said: "Last time, my father was not good, my father handled government affairs all the year round, and his head was not bright, so he blurted out the words, and after saying it, his father also regretted it very much, Jiaojiao, don't be angry." ”

"How dare I be angry." Gu Nianjiao still replied without being salty, but Gu Min was choked.

"I know you're not like that this time, but I still want to ask you, how do you plan to do it, do you plan to keep it like this?"

Gu Min knew that his daughter had always been very smart, and he was slandered by those people as the No. 1 gentleman in Hangzhou, and he was also very uncomfortable in his heart.

Gu Nianjiao saw that he regretted his face, and his heart softened, so he lowered his eyes and said: "How is it possible, if it continues like this, then I am afraid that I will never be able to turn over in this life." ”

Seeing her say this, Gu Min felt a little relieved, he always wanted his daughter to stand on the street, and the people around him no longer looked disdainful.

Now, hearing her say this with her own ears, she said that she planned not to go on like this anymore, Gu Min was really a little excited when she heard this.

"And how do you plan to do it?" Gu Min asked again.

Gu Nianjiao tilted her head and thought for a while: "I haven't thought of it yet." Gu Min didn't put pressure on her, nodded and said, "Okay, you just have your own ideas." ”

Gu Nianjiao didn't speak, Gu Min was also silent, and after a while, Gu Min sighed: "Jiaojiao, Wanwan's thing..."

"I don't want to talk about that." Gu Nianjiao interrupted him, lowering her eyes to teach people to see the emotions in her eyes clearly.

Gu Min was full of bitterness, but she didn't expect her resistance to Jiang Wan to be so serious.

"Okay then, don't talk about that." Gu Min obeyed her, thought for a while and said, "Now that you are fourteen, do you have a man who likes you?" ”

Gu Min thought in his heart, if his daughter has a man he likes, even if the man doesn't like it, he has to snatch it back for his daughter.

Gu Nianjiao didn't expect him to ask himself this, so after thinking about it, he said, "Yes." ”

Gu Min was stunned, but he didn't expect it to be true, "He..."

"He is a scholar, there is only one shop in his family, his family is poor, and he is from the Eastern Capital." Gu Nianjiao said slowly.

Gu Min frowned, how could this be worthy of his daughter? But seeing that she really seems to like it very much, Gu Min swallowed it again, forget it, what if she just did it on a whim?

"Then what do you say to Lu Shen?" Gu Min felt that Lu Shen was still good, although it didn't look serious, but it should be the same as Gu Nianjiao.

Lu Shen? Gu Nianjiao was helpless, why was she saying that she had a situation with Lu Shen?

"I don't mean anything to Lu Shen, don't talk about it anymore." Gu Nianjiao rubbed her eyebrows, she was really helpless.

Gu Min saw that she didn't want to say this, so he sighed, "Okay, I won't say it, you just have the bottom in your heart." ”

Gu Nianjiao snorted and didn't speak again, seeing that she was silent, Gu Min touched her nose: "That's it, then I'll go." ”

"Daddy walks slowly."

Gu Min smiled, it seemed that she was discouraged, and walked out.

After Gu Nianjiao saw him leave, she pondered for a moment, picked up the book again, and read it intently.

As the night got darker, Zhu Lu came over and persuaded: "Miss, it's late at night, it's time to rest." ”

Gu Nianjiao was stunned, raised her eyes to look at her, and saw her looking at herself gently, Gu Nianjiao smiled and closed the book, "Okay, just wait to freshen up." ”

After freshening up, Gu Nianjiao sat on the head of the bed again, holding the book and reading it again.

When I was freshening up, I thought about it for a while, and thought it would be better to finish reading it, otherwise I would have thought about this book and couldn't sleep all night.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Lu felt helpless, so he took a lamp and put it at the head of the bed, illuminating Gu Nianjiao's face and also illuminating the book, so as not to hurt his eyes by reading the candle.

"Go and rest." Gu Nianjiao raised her eyes and glanced at Zhu Lu, "Miss look at it, the slave and maid are with you, I'm fine." Zhu Lu smiled and stood beside him.

Gu Nianjiao saw that she insisted on refusing to leave, so she didn't care about her anymore and looked at the book in her hand seriously.

Zhu Lu saw her face, which was dimly lit and beautiful by the candlelight, and her heart was very soft.

She and Gu Nianjiao can be said to have grown up together, she is a few years older than Gu Nianjiao, and she is the one who has stayed by her side the longest among the four, followed by Bai Zang, and then Qingyang and Discord came together.

She knew that Gu Nianjiao looked very arrogant and domineering, but she was especially insecure in her heart.

Since she lost her mother since she was a child, her father accepted other women to enter the door, although this Jiang Wan is a good person, but as far as Gu Nianjiao is concerned, Jiang Wan and Gu Nianshu are a thorn in her heart.

Since Jiang Wan entered the door and gave birth to Gu Nianshu, the relationship between Gu Nianjiao and Gu Min began to stiffen.

Gu Min wanted to ease their relationship, but Gu Nianjiao was very resistant, whether it was Gu Min, Jiang Wan, or Gu Nianshu.

Zhu Lu sighed in his heart, didn't think about it anymore, and stood quietly by the bed with the girl.

Sleepiness hit, Gu Nianjiao yawned, a little tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, she stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears, and looked up at Zhu Lu with a smile: "Okay, I'm going to bed, you can go and rest." ”

After speaking, he handed the book to Zhu Lu with a smile and lay down.

Zhu Lu smiled and took the book and put it aside, stepped forward to cover the quilt for her, and saved up the corners and corners, for fear of running into the cold wind.

Then he stretched out his hand, lowered the curtain, and when he had done this, he took away the candle flame beside him.

Zhu Lu put the candle flame on the table, blew out the candle flame again, glanced at the bed, and then walked out lightly.

Inside the house, the cigarette smoke in the incense burner rose slowly, and the rich earth dragon was still burning, very warm, quiet, and the people on the bed gradually fell asleep, and their breathing was slowly stable.

Outside, a gust of cold wind blew through the dry branches, and the pond water in the courtyard was all frozen into ice, but the red plum blossoms in the corner of the wall bloomed in the wind, becoming a dazzling life in the cold winter night.

There are a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens it alone.
