Chapter 111: Confession
Gui Mingyue drank two bowls of apricot blossom brew in one go, and poured another bowl for Jin Qi'er, who drank it sweetly. It wasn't until the eyes of the master and servant that they also noticed the unusual atmosphere flowing between Su Xin and Bai Muzhi.
The action of wanting to drink a third bowl also stopped, sighed helplessly and shook his head, and secretly scolded himself for how slow he was.
It's just that these two people didn't realize it, Bai Muzhi was still talking and laughing freely, and Su Xin was even more affectionate and his eyes were always with him...... Later, Bai Muzhi got up and stayed with Mingyue and Su Xin.
It wasn't until Bai Muzhi walked away that Su Xin closed his stupid eyes, and after meeting Gui Mingyue's sight, his face couldn't help but blush, and he said shyly: "Let Miss Gui smile, my cousin and I have been together since we were children, this time he came to Nanyang County, and he said goodbye for more than ten days, so he got so forgetful of talking about it...... Su Xin is ashamed. ”
"No, no," Gui Mingyue hurriedly waved her hand, and explained without hesitation: "Xiao Biesheng is newly married......" After thinking about it, it was not right to say this, so I had to pick up the wine bowl and take a sip quickly.
When Su Xin heard this, she looked a little embarrassed, and then changed to a lonely wry smile, and said: "Fortunately, Miss Gui and I are also very close to each other, and serving my cousin together in the future can be regarded as a good story." ”
"Ahem, ahem!" Gui Mingyue almost choked to death by wine. Serve ...... together This ancient woman was not subtle at all.
Jin Qi'er hurriedly came over to pat her on the back, and at the same time slashed at Su Xin with her eyes, this Miss Cousin of Baifu is really shameless, and then look at her own young lady who was choked by the wine, her face was flushed, and she was a sharp tooth on weekdays, and she couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Miss Su Xin's words are bad, what to talk about serving or not serving, my young lady is not a slave and slave, Miss Su Xin loves to serve whoever she wants to serve, why do you want to pull my young lady." ”
"You!" Where has Su Xin seen such a lawless slave maid, she has been in charge of the house since she was ten years old, which subordinate slave maid is not respectful when she sees her, and although she says that she wants to serve a husband with Gui Mingyue, in fact, she has accumulated resentment and hatred for a long time because of her cousin's preference for Gui Mingyue.
was humiliated by Jin Qi'er like this, and couldn't help but be angry, stood up and stretched out his hand to slap him, and hit Jin Qi'er in the face with a "snap".
Gui Mingyue originally sneered at her like that, and the kind of thing of serving a man together was a fantasy for her...... But I didn't expect that she had always been gentle and pure, she actually got up and hit her own maid, she was an extremely protective person, and immediately didn't think about stepping forward, opening the bow left and right, "pop, pop" twice, and two palm prints appeared on each of Su Xin's cheeks.
"My maid, I can't even bear to fight myself, what kind of thing are you, dare to beat her?!" Gui Mingyue's tone was cold, and she pulled Jin Qi'er and left, and at this time she happened to meet Bai Muzhi, who came back with two bunches of apricot blossoms.
"Why did Miss Mingyue ......" Bai Muzhi saw Su Xin's swollen cheeks, and couldn't help but step forward in a hurry and asked, "Su Xin, your face!" What happened? There was anxiety and anger in his tone.
"Heh, I hit my cousin in the face, but because she hit my maid first." Gui Mingyue turned her head as she spoke, looking at the pair of cousins with an expressionless face.
Bai Muzhi was surprised, this situation was about to know what to say, Su Xin covered his cheeks, and sighed in pain, Bai Muzhi couldn't help frowning when he saw this, and said: "Mingyue, she just beat a maid, you ...... it"
This time it was Gui Mingyue's turn, and she couldn't smile bitterly, she didn't want to say anything more, but she left like this, and she really couldn't swallow this breath: "The maid?" I have never regarded them as my subordinates, so let's put it this way, even if they are subordinates, it is not your cousin's turn to teach you two a lesson, after all, we have nothing to do with you without relatives or reason...... If you want to teach your subordinates a lesson, please teach your own subordinates! ”
Seeing that Bai Mu was choked by himself and couldn't speak, Gui Mingyue said again: "Also, the name Mingyue is not what Bai Gongzi should call, in total, it is just the old time of the former classmates, if you call Mingyue, the affection is not enough." With that, he walked away.
"Miss, are you unhappy?" Jin Qi'er had never seen such an angry young lady, all to vent her anger, but seeing her sullen appearance since she got into the carriage, Jin Qi'er was a little worried, and couldn't help asking.
Gui Mingyue shook her head and said, "No, no, I'm about to be drunk......"
When I first drank this apricot blossom brew, I only felt mellow and sweet, but after drinking, this head was getting heavier and heavier, especially when I slapped those two slaps too quickly, and the stamina came up faster.
When she returned to the house, Gui Mingyue was already drunk and asleep, and Jin Qi'er went to the main courtyard to report to the old lady that Miss would not go to the front hall for dinner. Then after bathing and changing the young lady with the tortoiseshell and silver pendant, he fed some sobering soup before letting her lie down.
In the middle of the night, Gui Mingyue suddenly felt thirsty, rubbed her swollen head and got up, and was about to sit down at the table and pour herself a glass of water to quench her thirst.
Seeing a tall black figure sitting on the other side of the table, Gui Mingyue was suddenly so frightened that the seven souls lost three souls, and the wine also woke up for three points.
"Who are you?!" Gui Mingyue asked calmly and in a low voice.
The figure didn't move, but a familiar joking and mean voice sounded: "Miss Gui, I haven't seen you for a few days, I haven't grown taller, and my memory is much worse." ”
Gui Mingyue heard whose voice it was, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Seeing that she was no longer afraid, Ji Yunyi seemed to be in a much better mood, poured a glass of warm water and handed it over, and then sneered: "I heard that Miss Gui recently fought with other women because of Bai Gongzi, and now she is sad and drunk, and she is really a heroine among women." ”
This person is not ironic, will he die? Gui Mingyue rolled her eyes, didn't care about her heavy head, and immediately replied sarcastically: "Ji Gongzi broke into the women's boudoir at night, is it because he has nothing to do all day and is idle?" ”
Ji Yunyi was stunned for a moment, then his eyebrows bent, and he laughed again and again, Gui Mingyue saw that he was laughing louder and louder, and her heart tightened, and she went to cover his mouth without thinking about it.
The laughter came to an abrupt end.
I felt that the palm of her hand was warm, and the man's burning breath hit the back of her hand, Gui Mingyue's hand was instantly retracted as if it was burned, and when she raised her eyes to look over, it was indeed Ji Yunyi's narrow eyes that could not be hidden by her smile.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Ji Yunyi suddenly stretched out his head, looked at Gui Mingyue's surprised eyes without blinking, and asked.
"I, why should I be afraid of you?" This wicked man is proud of his good looks and is sultry anytime and anywhere, Gui Mingyue scolded secretly in her heart, fortunately she is not the kind of little girl who has never seen the world......
"If I said that it wasn't me who ordered you to shoot at Sunset Mountain that time," Ji Yunyi suddenly straightened his face and said seriously: "Do you believe it?" ”
Gui Mingyue looked at the seriousness in his eyes, it didn't look like a fake, and he had no reason to lie to himself, so he believed his words in his heart, in fact, thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had heard him scold his subordinates for archery that day. It's just that Gui Mingyue doesn't want to think about these things about him, after all, he is the eldest son of the cynical Hou Mansion, he is a merchant woman who is running for money, and he and he are people of two worlds after all.
After a moment of silence, Ji Yunyi broke the silence and asked, "Then do you still want to kiss the Bai family?" ”
Gui Mingyue didn't expect him to ask like this, and couldn't help but be a little flustered, and said: "It shouldn't be ......" and reacted in a blink of an eye: "How did you know about this?" ”
yes, how did he know what happened during the day?
"I want to know, naturally I will know ......" Ji Yunyi said ambiguously, but when his ears heard her say that she would not kiss the Bai family, the happy smile in his eyes became more and more prosperous, as if it was about to overflow.
Gui Mingyue's heart was also thundering, and she didn't even dare to look into his eyes, she admitted that she might have some different feelings for him.
But after all, she is a woman with a soul from another world, and what was given to her by that era was not only the ability to make money, but also the shaping of her heart, she was not destined to be a blind woman who lost her rational judgment for a budding feeling.
After settling down, Gui Mingyue said slowly: "Do you know why I agreed to the Bai family in the first place? ”
"I want to hear it in detail" Ji Yunyi also felt the coldness of her emotions.
"Because the environment of the Bai family is simple," Gui Mingyue didn't look at Ji Yunyi, nor did she know his expression, just looked out the dark window, and said: "You know that I am a businessman, and I just want to earn more silver in my life and give my family a better life." For those intrigues in the inner house, I can't do it, but I don't want to waste my energy to do it. So even if the relationship with the son of the Bai family is no longer completed this time, next time I will choose such a simple family background......"
This is very clear, a clear-eyed person knows Ji Yunyi's embarrassing position in Ji Mansion, and there are those pickled things about Ji Mansion that Yun Lang told before, so if you want to say that the family background is innocent and simple, this Ji Yunyi is not touched at all. After Gui Mingyue finished speaking, she went to look at Ji Yunyi opposite.
I don't want to waste my energy doing it...... Ji Yunyi repeated Gui Mingyue's words in her heart, she was such a proud woman, what if she didn't want to let her go?
Then he smiled and said, "I know." Then he climbed out of the window and disappeared in an instant. Gui Mingyue looked at his disappearing back in a daze, and suddenly couldn't react, did he understand what he said.
When he grew up to be so big, he had seen so many women in the inner house, and he had seen so many vicious things they had done. They are either doing evil, or acting for the tiger, or they are evading weakness and being slaughtered! Who is so proud that he even disdainfully dares to say such a thing!
"Big brother, have you been to see your sister?" Yun Lang looked at the eldest brother who went and returned, sighed and said, "Why did you come back so soon?" I thought I could ......."
"What are you talking about!" Ji Yunyi hit a popping chestnut, and the kid became more and more lawless when he spoke.
"Oops, it hurts! Tell me, what did you say to your sister, big brother, did you confess? Ji Yunlang grinned and rubbed his forehead and asked.
Shaking his head, Ji Yunyi couldn't help but feel a little lonely when he thought of Gui Mingyue's words. Today's court situation is changing rapidly, as the confidant of the second prince, until the last moment, whether he is full of wealth and glory, or he is reduced to a prisoner, it is unknown, and why not let go of her.
Ji Yunyi quickly sorted out his thoughts, remembered that there was another important matter recently, and said solemnly: "I heard some rumors that Yun Guiyi, who has been pampered tirelessly in recent years, is pregnant with a dragon species, and the saint wants to recruit the best craftsmen in the world to create gorgeous clothing and jewelry for her, and Miss Gui Er has some connections with Yun Guiyi, and her name is even more recruited......"
Ji Yunlang's breath stagnated, and he said in a little panic: "Can you not go?" ”
"Naturally, it can't," Ji Yunyi also sighed, how could the holy decree be changed so easily.
"How's that for good?" My sister has a chic and unworldly temperament, and she went to the palace where she cheated me and lost her head at every turn, what should I do if I am bullied?! Ji Yunlang's tears fell for the first time.
"You care about her?" Ji Yunyi looked at his younger brother with some scrutiny, and then said, "Don't worry, I will find a way." ”
