Chapter 525: Matchmaking (1)
Yan Zhenzhen jumped down from the carriage and took Xie Mingxi's hand with a smile: "Why are you waiting for me outside the door so early?" ”
The two had made an appointment to meet today. Yan Zhenzhen was idle at home, and deliberately came half an hour in advance. Unexpectedly, Xie Mingxi was already waiting outside the door, which made her feel strangely moved.
Xie Mingxi responded lightly: "Before, Senior Sister Mu came to me to gossip, and I came out to send her off." Unexpectedly, you happened to be here too. ”
Senior Sister Mu?
Yan Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and wrinkled her nose: "Why is she here?" ”
Without waiting for Xie Mingxi to speak, he snorted softly again: "On the day you died, her father didn't say anything good. If it weren't for the fact that the Seven Princes were there, it would have made everyone see the joke. It's a shame that she's embarrassed to come to see you. ”
Xie Mingxi didn't want to say more, so he casually opened the topic: "Don't talk about her." Let's go in and talk. ”
Yan Zhenzhen smiled and snorted.
……
After a cup of tea, Xie Mingxi and Yan Zhenzhen sat opposite each other in the room.
A moment ago, sitting opposite Xie Mingxi was Mu Ziqi, who was full of shame and sorrow. At this time, sitting opposite was Yan Zhenzhen, who was dancing with her eyebrows flying and dancing lively. The dreary atmosphere was swept away.
“…… In the past few days, two families have come to my door to ask about my family. ”
When Yan Zhenzhen mentioned family affairs, she was not shy at all, and she was complacent: "It can be seen that on the day of you and Lu, I, the praiser, performed very well and was in the limelight." I was impressed! ”
Xie Mingxi laughed teasingly: "Yes, yes, yes!" On that day, you were the most outstanding, that is, I was too much to lose, and I was willing to bow down. ”
Yan Zhenzhen reluctantly humbled once: "You are only a little worse than me." ”
After a few words of laughter, Yan Zhenzhen asked curiously: "You specially asked someone to send me a letter, saying that you have something to discuss with me." What the hell is going on? ”
It's also interesting.
After Zhao Qi saw Yan Zhenzhen that day, he fell in love. I have to send someone to ask Sheng Hong once a day. Sheng Hong was pestered by his friends and had a headache, so he had to let Xianghui leave the palace to send a letter to Lianchi Academy.
Xie Mingxi reluctantly took this hot potato.
Facing Yan Zhenzhen's pretending face with great interest, Xie Mingxi didn't beat around the bush, and opened his mouth to say, "How much impression do you have of Zhao Gongzi?" ”
Yan Zhenzhen was confused when asked: "Which Zhao Gongzi?" ”
It doesn't seem to be impressive.
Xie Mingxi said lightly: "Zhao Ge's youngest son, his full name is Zhao Qi. On that day, when I was in time, he came to Xie Mansion with the Seven Princes. At that time, I was standing in the corner, and I secretly saw you once, and fell in love with you at first sight. ”
Yan Zhenzhen: "......"
She seemed calm that day, but in fact she was very nervous, where did she still have the leisure to look around. I didn't notice that there was a Zhao Qi in the corner!
Yan Zhenzhen was stunned, and Xie Mingxi continued unhurriedly:
"The Zhao family and the Yan family are right, Zhao Qi is very smart, and his reading talent is not weaker than Lu Chi. It's just that the face is more tender, and it lacks a bit of stability. ”
"He is interested in you, and he has asked his parents at home, and he will come to the door to propose marriage soon. It's just that he's afraid that you won't accept the family matter. Then I beg me to speak a few kind words before you. I also have the cheekiness to see you in private again. ”
"The main thing is to let you meet him. If you also like it, you should go to the Zhao family. ”
"I'm going to ask you today, would you like to see him once?"
……
After a stick of incense, Yan Zhenzhen left with soft steps.
When I got out of the house, I happened to meet Gu Shanchang.
This year, there are a lot more students in the academy, there are many trivial matters, and Gu Shanchang is much busier than usual. However, seeing the former students, Gu Shanchang was still very happy.
Yan Zhenzhen didn't seem to see Gu Shanchang, and floated past Gu Shanchang as if she was sleepwalking.
Gu Shanchang: "......"
What's wrong with this kid?
Although he speaks more bluntly on weekdays, he also knows the number of etiquette. What's going on today?
Gu Shanchang was confused, so he simply went to Xie Mingxi's house and opened his mouth to ask.
After Xie Mingxi heard this, he smiled, but refused to say it explicitly, and only said vaguely: "The girl's family is big, and she always has some thoughts." Master, don't ask more. ”
Then he smiled and said, "I asked Sister Yan to visit Mingyue Lake tomorrow, do you want to go with Master?" ”
Tomorrow is not a day off, and with Gu Shanchang's temperament, he will definitely insist on staying in the academy. Xie Mingxi mentioned it casually, expecting that Gu Shanchang would definitely refuse.
Unexpectedly, Gu Shanchang responded with a mouthful: "It's okay." ”
Xie Mingxi: "......"
Gu Shanchang raised his eyebrows amusedly: "You opened your mouth to invite me to go with me, how could I not be." Why do you look like that? Could it be that he just said it casually, and he didn't plan to let me go with him? ”
Xie Mingxi was willing to admit it, and immediately said: "I am both surprised and delighted that Master promised to be so refreshing. I was stunned for a moment. Master is willing to go, and I don't know how happy I am in my heart. ”
……
The next day, in the afternoon.
Mingyue Lake.
There are many scenic spots in the capital, and Mingyue Lake is one of the most famous.
Mingyue Lake covers an area of about 100 acres, and the lake water is clear. At night, the lake glows with white moonlight, like a bright moon falling into the lake, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. Mingyue Lake is also named after this.
At this time, it is early summer, and there are patches of green lotus leaves on Mingyue Lake, and occasionally one or two light pink buds. The breeze is blowing, and the lake ripples.
At this time, boating on the lake, sitting and drinking tea with three or five friends, talking and laughing, is also a joy in life.
On the shore of Mingyue Lake, there are many boats that are reserved for swimming in the lake, and they charge rent silver according to the time of the lake, and the price is high.
The owner of one of the boats was smiling today. For no other reason, the ship was set early in the morning. The son, surnamed Zhao, paid the rent for a whole day, but he didn't come until early in the afternoon. In this way, he has taken advantage of it greatly.
A baby-faced Zhao Gongzi looked quite young, and the boat family took the hot tea and snacks quite diligently, and said casually: "Zhao Gongzi looks quite tender, there should be fourteen this year!" ”
Zhao Gongzi's face turned black at that time.
The boatman immediately regretted it and didn't dare to say more.
After waiting for half an hour, a son surnamed Sheng came.
Eh! How could this Sheng Gongzi be so beautiful! Could it be a woman's dress? However, with such a tall person, it can't be a woman! There are still young people in the world who are born so beautiful!
The boatman has a bad habit of talking to himself when he is excited.
Sheng Gongzi, who is beautiful and has a keen ear, also looked a little subtle after hearing the boatman's whispering.
After waiting for a while, a carriage slowly came to the lake.
The beautiful Sheng Gongzi's eyes lit up and he stood up.
However, the baby-faced Zhao Gongzi moved one step faster, rushed to get up and get off the boat, and arrived at the side of the carriage.
The carriage door opened, and it was Gu Shanchang who got out of the carriage first.
Zhao Gongzi: "......"
Sheng Gongzi: "......"
