Chapter 044: Sending an Umbrella
At the mention of Caitou, the scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Jin Nian curiously.
"I almost forgot about the lottery!" Su Ziang echoed with a smile, "I thought that the fifth sister's appreciation was excellent, but I didn't expect the sixth sister's evaluation to be even higher, don't be soft-hearted when you ask for the fourth brother." ”
Those present were the two of them with the highest talents, and their words were equivalent to announcing the outcome of the competition.
As soon as Su Ziang's words fell, Su Jinxiu cheered "wow" and took the lead in applauding.
In an instant, applause rang out one after another.
Su Jintong's face became extremely ugly, she thought that she could take this opportunity to get closer to Brother Yi, but in the end, she lost such a big face in front of him.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Jin Nian unwillingly, and said coldly: "It's just a fluke, there's nothing to be proud of." ”
"It's really a fluke, thank you Fifth Sister for agreeing." Jin Nian smiled gently.
Su Jintong's face stiffened, and she felt that the heavy punch she had hit the cotton, which was soft, and instantly turned her strength into invisible.
She lost so embarrassingly today, I don't know what Brother Yi will think of her?
She looked at Gu Yanyi with some shame, and with just one glance, she was as cold as being splashed with a basin of ice water.
Gu Yanyi's strange gaze when she looked at Jin Nian, which had never appeared in front of anyone, she clearly knew what that meant......
After a while, Su Jintong reacted, and his gaze at Jin Nian couldn't help but bring a little resentment.
Jin Nian didn't know that she had inadvertently attracted hatred, she looked at Gu Yanyi with a smile, "As for making a request to Fourth Brother Gu, I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it later!" ”
Gu Yanyi accurately captured her cold gaze when she looked at him, then she said that there would be no more follow-up in the future.
He sighed secretly in his heart, the hand in his sleeve clenched a little unconsciously, but the smile on his lips was light, "Sixth sister will think of it in the future, it's not too late to come to me again!" ”
Jin Nian nodded and stopped looking at him.
In the next half day, everyone gathered together to play chess, and Su Jinyan even brought rust products to embroider.
At the end of the Shen period, the sun was slanting to the west, and after spending most of the day in the back mountain, Su Ziang proposed to return home.
Thinking of the lotus leaf chicken he promised his mother to make, Jin Nian said: "Big brother, take everyone to go first, I'll pick a few lotus leaves." ”
Houshan is only half an hour's journey from the house, and it is still early, so Su Ziang also went by her.
From the pavilion to the lotus pond is only a few hundred meters away, soon, the master and servant picked the lotus leaves, and when they were about to go back, Jin Nian found that the sky was still bright just now, I don't know when dark clouds have gathered, and the sky has gradually darkened.
It's really a June day, and the child's face changes when he says it!
"Let's go, maybe we'll be back in the house before the rain comes!" Jin Nian said, first lifted the corner of the skirt and ran back and forth, Yingge also hurriedly chased after it.
The idea was good, and before the master and servant could run to the pavilion, the raindrops of beans fell down, and the two had to raise the lotus leaf to cover their heads, and stumbled into the pavilion.
Jin Nian was a little embarrassed, her face was stuck with her hair wet by the rain, and there were a lot of raindrops on her shoulders, but fortunately, her clothes were still dry.
She was rejoicing, and before she had time to breathe, she found that in addition to their master and servant, there were also Gu Yanyi and his little servant Shaquan standing in the pavilion.
Why is he still here, isn't he already gone just now?
Seeing Jin Nian stunned, Gu Yanyi looked away and said with a light smile: "I'm back." ”
The rain was too loud for Jin Nian to hear clearly, and she didn't plan to find out what he was talking about. She smiled reluctantly and walked straight to the other side of the gazebo, looking up at the rain outside.
Yingge saw that her young lady didn't want to have more contact with Gu Yanyi, so after she went to say hello to Gu Yanyi, she followed behind Jin Nian silently.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there is only a vast rain curtain left in the world.
Gu Yanyi also stopped talking, no one opened his mouth to break the silence, Sha Quan looked at Jin Nian for a while, and then at his young master, he wanted to speak several times and stopped, each time under Gu Yanyi's faint glance, he finally chose to be quiet.
The sky gradually darkened, Jin Nian began to be a little anxious, it was raining so hard, she didn't go back, she was afraid that her mother should be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot!
"Sixth sister, I have two umbrellas here, you go down the mountain first!"
I don't know when, Gu Yanyi has walked to her side.
He suddenly spoke, startling Jinnian.
"No, you don't." She didn't think about it, and coldly refused.
Gu Yanyi raised her eyebrows, turned around and changed the angle, and stood beside her, "In half an hour, it will be dark, seeing that you haven't gone back, Aunt San should be in a hurry." ”
He stood a little closer, and Jin Nian could even smell the familiar, faint mint fragrance on his body.
Just like he had approached her countless times in his previous life, her body stiffened for a moment, and after reacting, she quickly turned her body sideways and took two steps back, and then said, "Then thank you Fourth Brother Gu." ”
This person is like this, no matter when, he can accurately guess what she thinks.
Since he has seen through it, she might as well admit it generously, "Borrowing an umbrella should be the lottery head that I asked for with Fourth Brother Gu." ”
She didn't want to owe Gu Yanyi a favor in vain!
After the words fell, she took the umbrella handed over by Gu Yanyi, stretched it out, and rushed into the rain curtain.
Yingge then followed.
Until Jin Nian's figure disappeared for a long time, Gu Yanyi still stood still.
He let out a low sigh, "This color head ......."
The voice was like a sigh, and it was like a self-deprecation!
Sha Quan sighed secretly in his heart.
He looked at the non-stop rain outside, and said with some concern: "Childe, do we really want to live in the mountains tonight?" ”
"What, you're scared?"
He looked at the rain curtain, Sha Quan couldn't see his expression clearly, but he always felt that his son-in-law was doing something strange today.
"Not really!" Sha Quan shook his head, "I'm afraid that the eldest prince will come to Yangzhou tonight!" "Such an important matter, but the son chose to come to Su Mansion today.
Obviously, he himself said, "Chaoxia doesn't go out, Caixia travels thousands of miles." "Knowing that it would rain today, I told Master Su that today would be a sunny day, and proposed to come to this back mountain.
I had already descended the mountain just now, but I used the excuse of returning here halfway.
Now, I'm afraid I'm going to go down the mountain in the rain!
Gu Yanyi was still expressionless, he raised his hand and rubbed his brows, and then said, "I know, in another quarter of an hour, we will go down the mountain." ”
Just because the eldest prince is here, I am afraid that in the past two months, he will not be able to come to Su Mansion again, thinking of Jin Nian's obvious hostility and estrangement towards him, his heart that has always been self-contained and calm is a little irritable.
We have to find a way to solve this problem......
Here, when Su Jinnian returned to Jinghua Xiaozhu, the skirt was completely soaked, and only the clothes on her upper body were dry.
As soon as she entered the door of the Jinghua courtyard, she saw at a glance that Xie was wandering back and forth under the eaves, and looked at the gate of the courtyard from time to time.
As soon as she approached, Xie Shi hurriedly took her umbrella and said distressedly: "I saw your brother come back, drenched like a chicken in soup, and I heard that you are still behind, if you don't come back, I will go up the mountain to find you in person!" ”
In this way, Su Ziang and his party were all drenched in the rain!
That's really thanks to Gu Yanyi's blessing, she became the luckiest one.
