Chapter 127: Ask for someone
The old lady asked her father to come forward to invite Gu Yanyi, and before Jin Nian could ask in detail, someone walked by under the corridor.
It was Su Ziang who came.
"Father and grandmother asked me to invite Yanyi over and beg Sixth Sister to come with me!"
Su Ziang's sincerity made Jin Nian can't help but jump on his forehead, don't you just go to ask someone, why do you still use the word request?
Jin Nian's intuition must be no good.
Sure enough, Su Ziang sighed and said: "On the day of the New Year, my grandmother specially asked me to ask Yanyi to come over for dinner, but that kid kept prevaricating, and said that Su Mansion was reunited, and he would not participate as an outsider. I was in a hurry, and he said that he had been busy for the past month or two, so he went out in a hurry, and I waited for most of the day and didn't see anyone come back! Look at the meaning of his words, he doesn't plan to spend the Spring Festival with us! Somehow, he seems to be deliberately avoiding us now?! ”
Jin Nian said in his heart, he didn't want to avoid us, but to avoid Su Jintong. The old lady asked the eldest brother to invite someone to come, Gu Yanyi was only afraid that he was worried that Su Jintong and the old lady would bring up the family matter again, and the matter of the two Huai salt taxes was cumbersome, so he simply found an excuse and walked away.
She smiled and rejected Su Ziang: "Big brother can't invite him, so it's in vain for me to go!" ”
Su Ziang didn't follow, if he didn't invite someone this time, the old lady was afraid that he would not be able to do this little thing well, but few people could persuade Gu Yanyi to decide something.
However, Su Jintong said that he was glad that Su Jinnian could invite Gu Yanyi.
He had to persuade Jinnian in a good voice: "From Huai'an to Yangzhou, didn't he escort you all the way for more than ten days, you should always be able to talk to him, right?" I'm a big man, if he doesn't agree with a word, he can turn his face and walk away, but you are a girl, he takes care of your thin face, and he will not give you a face. ”
What kind of logic is this! Jin Nian didn't know that Su Ziang still had such a well-spoken side, but she still felt that since she fell off the list, Su Ziang has been a lot calmer!
It's just that if she asked Gu Yanyi to invite her, she doesn't seem to have that much face......
Just as he was about to refuse, he listened to the cuckoo on the side and said, "Miss, the third master is here!" ”
So fast! Jin Nian looked up in surprise and saw that his father was walking towards the flower hall, and he hadn't had time to change his dusty clothes yet.
Su Ziang and Jin Nian saluted Su Youhua, and Su Youhua said to Jin Nian: "Your grandmother asked your eldest brother to invite Gu Shilang, I thought about it and felt that you should also go." Last time he protected you well, we didn't thank him properly, and we had to do our best to take advantage of the Chinese New Year. ”
Jin Nian didn't know what to say, his father always felt that they owed Gu Yanyi a great favor, and always wanted to find a chance to repay it, but now that it was the New Year, he was afraid that he would live alone in a lonely country, so he had to shush him and ask him for warmth.
No, she didn't change her clothes, so she rushed to urge her to invite someone! If he can't get rid of it, his father is afraid that he will go there himself......
Jin Nian reluctantly compromised.
With Su Youhua's help, Su Ziang happily went to the outer courtyard to order someone to set up a car.
When the brother and sister arrived at Gu Yanyi's house on Jingbei Street, it was just after noon.
Gu Yanyi's master and servant were about to go out, Sha Quan's eyes were sharp, and he was the first to see Jin Nian, so he attached himself to the ear of his son and whispered: "It's Miss Six who is here, what should I do?" ”
Sha Quan was worried that Jin Nian's appearance would disrupt his son's plan.
Recently, they have been collecting the amount of salt taxes in Yangzhou, but the two Huai salt policies have always been in the hands of the Jin king's faction, and they have encountered many obstacles. His son-in-law finally caught up with the governor of the salt transport envoy and made an appointment to talk in the teahouse in the afternoon.
Although the governor of the Salt Transport Envoy is only an official position of the eighth grade, he is specifically in charge of the two Huai salt tickets, lists and registers, and is also in charge of anti-smuggling affairs. If the prince can negotiate with the governor, then they will have a few more advantages in the salt affairs of the two Huai.
It's just that at this juncture, Miss Su Liu is here, and according to the importance that her son-in-law attaches to Miss Six, she is afraid that she will ......
When Gu Yanyi heard this, he stopped and looked at the carriage not far away, where Su Ziang was helping Jinnian get out of the car.
"Let's make a pot of tea!" Gu Yanyi rubbed his brows and lightly instructed Sha Quan.
I knew it was going to be like this...... Sha Quan sighed secretly and silently turned around and went to the tea room.
As soon as Jin Nian got out of the car, she saw Gu Yanyi standing at the door, she was stunned, and followed Su Ziang with a good heart, the three of them greeted at the door, and Gu Yanyi invited their brother and sister into the living room.
Su Ziang said, "Are you going out?" Don't be busy with the Chinese New Year, hurry up and let Shaquan pick up and go back with us for the New Year. My father and third uncle have returned, and as soon as they entered the door with their front feet, they urged me and my sixth sister to invite you over. ”
After speaking, he gave Jin Nian a look.
Jin Nian had no choice but to follow his words and said: "I haven't seen him for more than a month, and as soon as my father came back, he talked about Fourth Brother Gu, and even told me to prepare Go, and I was waiting for you to go over and have a good discussion!" ”
Jin Nian said this with a little weakness, she remembered that in Huai'an's study, her father had played against Gu Yanyi.
This is the only thing she can think of, there can be a common topic between her father and Gu Yanyi.
"Really?" Gu Yanyi smiled gently.
Su Ziang saw that he seemed to be loose, and hurriedly said, "Then there is a fake?" "Stretch out your hand to pull Gu Yanyi.
Gu Yanyi hurriedly avoided his hand and said, "It's hard to be gracious, on the second day of the new year, I will go to pay New Year's greetings to my grandmother and uncles." ”
Therefore, he still didn't want to go to Su Mansion to celebrate the New Year with them.
Jin Nian didn't know how to persuade people, plus when she was in Huaimo Study, Su Jintong pulled her to meet Gu Yanyi privately, and then Sha Quan suddenly closed the door and locked her inside, and now facing Gu Yanyi, she was embarrassed for a while, and her mood was incomprehensible.
She simply remained silent.
Sha Quan was carrying a teapot in, and when he heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and made tea for Jin Nian and Su Ziang with his hands and feet.
Su Ziang did not die: "Chinese New Year's Eve, you always have to keep the New Year for your parents, you are alone and boring, come with us, you can also make a table of bridge, and pass the time." ”
Gu Yanyi said lightly: "I don't need to keep the New Year." For as long as he could remember, he hadn't kept the New Year.
Jin Nian held the teacup for a moment, and when he raised his eyes, Gu Yanyi's expression was cold, and his deep eyes couldn't reach the end.
He's not happy!
Come to invite him in a good voice, if you don't go, you won't go, what kind of face do you sow!
"Big brother, let's go back, Fourth Brother Gu is busy, and it's the same to see you on the second day of the new year!"
Subconsciously, Jin Nian's tone was a little rushed.
The two sincere invitations hit a wall, and Su Ziang lost his patience, so he simply didn't say much, said goodbye and threw his sleeves out of the hall.
It wasn't until the news of the two brothers and sisters was in sight that Sha Quan was worried: "Childe, why don't I go and make an appointment with Governor Liang for another time?" ”
The two brothers and sisters of the Su family are obviously unhappy, and the relationship between Gongzi and Miss Six is a delicate time, and if they don't handle it properly, they have to go back to the past.
Gu Yanyi tapped his fingers on the table: "No need, let's go to the teahouse now." "As for Su Jinnian, just find another opportunity to talk to her.
