Zhou Yuanqi saw the eagerness in Ao Xuan's eyes towards Gan Peilin, and the corners of his lips lifted lightly: "Steward Zhou, you go and get busy, let's take the two Miss Gan to enjoy the flowers." ”

"Yes, young master." The butler stepped aside neatly, and suddenly there were only four people left facing each other.

If he knew that Ao Jue would come, Gan Peilin said that he would not come.

"The garden is over there, come with me." Zhou Yuanqi raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes seemed to convey something from Ao Xuan.

Ao Xuan comprehended, his eyes just stayed on Gan Peilin calmly for a moment, and then turned away.

"Mother, the two daughters of Ganfu have arrived." Zhou Yuanqi changed his usual cynical appearance and saluted Mrs. Zhou politely.

"Ah, it's the two daughters of Gan Mansion who have arrived." Mrs. Zhou looked over, and the smile on her face revealed warmth: "You see, the daughter of Ganfu is brilliant. More adorable than the flowers in my garden. Come on, come forward and let me take a good look. ”

Although it was a compliment, Gan Peilin and Gan Wanyun both felt uncomfortable.

It seems that I have become a commodity in the eyes of others, and I can take it in my hand and choose it slowly.

"You're Peilin." Mrs. Zhou warmly took her hand: "When you were a child, I went to your house to hug you." After so many years, the eyebrows and eyes have not changed much, but the bearing is very different. Looking at the slim one, it is really different. ”

Gan Peilin lowered his head a little embarrassed: "Madame praised it." ”

"What's the use of looking good? As a woman, the most important thing is morality. ”

The voice was abrupt and somewhat familiar, Gan Peilin took the opportunity to look over, and saw that Mrs. Wu had just walked in with the two girls.

"It's the sister of the Wu family who is here." Mrs. Zhou then got up and walked over to meet her. Obviously felt that she was talking with the smell of gunpowder, so she quickly diverted the conversation. "It's rare for my sister to come over, and she still has two daughters, hurry, sit here."

"Why does the sister of the Zhou family invite everyone to the house." Mrs. Wu continued to ridicule Gan Peilin unrelentingly.

Even Gan Wanyun's face was a little unbearable, and her head hung lower.

"Look at what the sister of the Wu family said." Mrs. Zhou was a little reluctant, and hurriedly explained: "These two are the daughters of the Great Sima Mansion. Da Sima only came out of the imperial city a few days ago, and now he is fighting for the imperial court, and he has made great contributions. It is also rare for two girls to come to our Zhou Mansion as guests. ”

In other words, Da Sima Mansion is not easy to mess with. Even if the Wu family has a champion, it does not mean that it can compete with the military power in the hands of others. In other words, it is better to keep some virtue in front of people, so as not to get into trouble.

Although Mrs. Wu was not very happy to listen, she still reluctantly kept her mouth shut.

"Yuanqi, the flowers in the back garden are blooming just right, you lead all the daughters in our house to have a look." Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "It's also excellent for us older sisters to sit and drink tea. ”

"Yes, Mother." Zhou Yuanqi respectfully responded, and then made a gesture of invitation.

Gan Peilin and Gan Wanyun, as well as the two young ladies of the Wu family, and several young ladies who had come over a long time ago, all went to the back garden.

The rest are the elders who have come over from each family.

Mrs. Wu showed a slight smile at this time: "You said that you are too, so many daughters of families have brought your house as guests." Why did you invite the daughter of Ganfu? That's a ...... You can't stop it. There are many eyes in the heart. ”

Her voice was not small, even if she walked a little farther, Gan Peilin could hear it clearly.

Gan Wanyun held her hand with a slight force, intending to remind her not to mind.

Gan Peilin replied with a gentle smile, this Mrs. Wu is really a thorn.

"You don't have to pay attention to her." Zhou Yuanqi returned to his usual giggling appearance, and raised a touch of bad eyebrows: "She is one of the best shrews in our West City." When he was young, Wu Yuan was just an inconspicuous little imperial doctor in Tai Hospital, where did he have his own mansion. Living with the Wu family, one of the mother-in-law, concubines, and other women is a good match. It didn't make her suffer. developed such a tricky temperament as her. ”

"Uh-huh." Ao Xuan coughed lightly, intending to remind him that the two young ladies of the Wu family were also there. You still have to pay attention to your words.

"It's okay." One of the girls knew Ao Xuan's thoughts, and smiled a little helplessly. "We, the daughters of the concubines, have suffered a lot from her. Now that I hear you say that, I can feel more comfortable. ”

"By the way, this is Wu Mei's sister. The second lady of the Wu family. Zhou Yuanqi introduced to everyone: "That is her sister Miss Wu Shuang, the eldest lady of the Wu family." This is the daughter of Ganfu, Gan Peilin, and this is ......"

"This is my third sister, Wanyun." Gan Peilin opened generously.

The two young ladies of the Wu family smiled and nodded, and several people knew each other.

Ao Xuan has been beside him, silently looking at Gan Peilin. That feeling is to imprint her smile and smile in my mind. Even if you can't see each other for a long time, you can always reminisce.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my mother has always liked to take care of the flowers and trees in the back garden by herself. It's spring, and there are plenty of beautiful flowers and plants here that you can enjoy on your own. If you feel tired, there are fruits and tea prepared in the Windward Pavilion, and you can take them yourself. ”

The ladies smiled and nodded, and they scattered in twos and threes.

"Shall I take you around over there?" Zhou Yuanqi approached Gan Wanyun, and his voice was soft and warm.

Gan Wanyun could feel his breath close at hand, and her face turned red all of a sudden. "I ......"

Zhou Yuanqi glanced at her.

Gan Wanyun followed her gaze and found that Ao Xuan was also like the Metropolitan Governor, looking directly at her sister, and instantly understood Zhou Yuanqi's thoughts. "Well, I just wanted to see those beautiful flowers. Sister, I'm out of company first. ”

"......" Gan Jilu wanted to stop her and go together, but was stunned by Zhou Yuanqi's longing eyes. Could it be that Wanyun fell in love with Zhou Yuanqi? In her last life, she ended up marrying a wealthy businessman, but she fell out of favor because she gave birth to two daughters, and she was also miserable. It's a pity that I didn't have the ability to help her at that time.

"I'll walk you over there." Although Ao Xuan's words did not sound like an order, they could not be refused.

Gan Peilin was alone with him, and there was always an uncomfortable feeling. Once upon a time, she liked to make him laugh, and always thought he was too serious. Later, when she saw him smiling at Mo Chuxue, she suddenly understood that not smiling is not necessarily serious, it is likely that the person is unwilling to smile at you.

"I ......"

"The flowers and plants over there are very attractive." Ao Xuan stood beside her, dressed in a dark green robe, which looked very in line with his temperament.

Gan Peilin was helpless and followed him slowly. In fact, she didn't think about letting Ao Xuan like herself, and then kicking him away. It also gave him a taste of being abandoned. But more often than not, she wanted his life. In memory of her innocent child.

"Do you know why Mrs. Zhou invited the young ladies of each family to come to Zhou's mansion as a guest?" Ao Su suddenly asked.

"It wasn't written on the invitation." Gan Peilin replied briefly.

"I want to see you." Ao Su thought of many ways to express it, and finally chose only these four words.

"What does it have to do with you?" Gan Peilin pretended to be confused and deliberately avoided his gaze.

"Yuan Qi wants to help me." Ao Xuan does not hide it. It's been a long time since he's been talking to Gan Peilin like this. At the same time, he also sensed that Jiang Yu's people were secretly monitoring her every move. "Peilin, you ......"

"Second son." Gan Peilin stopped, and his tone was a little cold: "We don't seem to be so familiar with each other." Also, do you know that last time Shengqing Wangfu compared arrows, you took the lead and gave Mo Chuxue a golden hairpin, she was cute and protected tightly. ”

"What?" Ao Xuanrao was stunned.

"The love tokens have been sent, so I don't want to say that I care about other girls." Gan Peilin looked at his eyes full of doubts, and his smile was alienated: "She has always been thinking about you." ”

I sprinkled a handful of sumac powder in the rouge I bought from Ao Su last time, and after the crispy core threw away the rouge, Mo Chuxue really picked it up. Forget it when you pick it up, it's really useful. The face and fingers are swollen, and it took more than half a month to get better.

"Did you misunderstand?" Ao Xuan thought to herself, could it be that her alienation was because of the golden hairpin. "I ...... to her"

"Whether I'm misunderstanding or not, it doesn't matter at all." Gan Peilin pursed his lips and smiled: "The important thing is her." But the second son doesn't have to explain this to me. I don't need to know. ”

After saying that, she walked slowly and blended into the crowd of flowers.

Ao Xuan stood in place in a daze, his heart beating very uncomfortably.

Gan Peilin thought that this excuse would definitely get rid of Ao Xuan. And by the way, he abused the first snow.

Who knew that before she had taken two steps, Ao Xuan dodged in front of her. If she hadn't been alert, she would have crashed head-on. "Second son, what are you doing here?"

"She and I are both concubines, and we know best what it's like to be rejected." Ao Xuan frowned: "That day, it was just an element of sympathy, nothing else. As for the top, it was a coincidence, and it was not expected in advance. I'll explain it to her, so please don't get me wrong. ”

"Why did the second son say this to me." Gan Peilin was a little impatient: "Your business has nothing to do with me." ”

"......" Ao Su was speechless by her, as if she should say something, but she didn't know where to start.

"Please." Gan Peilin bowed slightly at her and was about to leave.

Ao Xuan followed the direction she was moving, once again blocking her way.

Gan Peilin was a little annoyed, he really couldn't understand what these men had in their heads. It's already a direct refusal, why don't you know to get out of the way? What to dwell on!

"Ahh

She was about to get angry when the woman in the crowd exclaimed, drawing her gaze. It's a pity that there are so many people that I can't see it clearly for a while.

"What are you doing, you're crazy?" Zhou Yuanqi's voice was full of anger. "Miss Gan, are you alright?"

"Wanyun?" Gan Peilin's heart tightened.

Ao Xuan immediately held her hand and pushed aside the person in front of him: "Let go, please let go." ”

If it weren't for the urgency, Gan Peilin would not have let him hold his hand. But Gan Wanyun's poignant exclamation was obviously an accident.

Ao Jue's heart was slightly warm, it was the first time to be so close to her. "Don't worry."

He soothed his lips at her: "Everything has me." ”
