Chapter 168: Red Sleeves and Fragrance (10)
After eating, Ji Ranjia heard that there was no movement outside the house, thinking that the guests were gone, so she pushed the door out and prepared to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. As soon as she looked up, she saw two white figures sitting under the vines, and the air was filled with saber rattling.
The two of them turned their heads to look at her in unison, and Ji Weihai, who was sitting in the middle and was reduced to the background, rubbed his hands and stood up, "Sister, the fourth brother Gu and Dr. Lu's house are a little farther away, eat and drink some tea before leaving." ”
Ji Ranjia chuckled and nodded, went to the hall and began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. The food she cooked was delicious, and she was willing to put oil and meat, and almost all the dishes were empty. All she had to do was move them into the kitchen and wash them with hot water mixed with grass ash. Stacked the dishes into a stack, and before she finished cleaning up, Gu Sifan came in with his sleeves rolled up and a cold face, and helped her carry the dishes and chopsticks without saying a word.
She pursed her lips, "Fourth Brother Gu, you are a guest, I can come, but it is only a matter of a few trips." ”
Gu Sifan glanced at her lightly, and his eyes were forever the kind of ordinary and waveless, deep and intimidating because he couldn't guess and couldn't see clearly. "I'm not a person who doesn't work hard and doesn't distinguish between grains."
Ji Ranjia blinked, why did she think he had something to say? She thought of another person in the courtyard, I don't know if she is too careful, Gu Sifan is emphasizing his advantages?
She didn't say anything more, and went directly to the kitchen with the dishes and chopsticks to wash. After Gu Sifan finished his last trip, he stood by the stove, his slender figure covered the already narrow room with the sunlight outside the door.
"Where can I beat him?" He asked coldly, the smooth tone not at all like expecting an answer.
"Fourth Brother Gu is very good, you are handsome, you are only eight buckets tall, and your future is bright," she thought for a while and said.
"Just because I'm better than him?" Gu Sifan was afraid of hearing that you asked me to love this kind of reason that he couldn't intervene, so he interrupted her early and said out of context: "I can be a master for you for a lifetime, or study medicine to save people." ”
"Fourth Brother Gu, you don't need to change anything for me," Ji Ranjia immediately shook his head and refused, he was a talented man who was praised by the emperor, how could he be willing to be mediocre just because she was a little woman?
He clenched his fists, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, not everyone can achieve something in reading, he was able to obtain Xie Yuan to obtain the qualification to teach in Qin Feng Academy, which was very powerful in the eyes of others. But he didn't have the slightest sense of accomplishment, he said that a good man was ambitious, and he was full of eyes with only one woman who provoked him and didn't know it.
All his efforts were just to give her the best life, glory and well-being for a lifetime.
She said no!
Gu Sifan bent down slightly, grabbed her slender arm, pulled it into his arms, looked at her panicked eyes and gradually dyed red skin, and said softly: "Ji Ranjia, you can't be so ruthless." You once said that you would accompany me for the rest of my life, why don't you remember? ”
She was stunned, did she say this sentence herself? The memory was so long ago that she didn't have a trace of it at all.
He saw the girl's confused appearance, and laughed at himself: "It's me who is stupid, you just wanted to make more meat for your family at that time to replenish your body, and the kind words of not wanting money coaxed me to take it seriously, and stupidly studied desperately just to meet your expectations." ”
Ji Ranjia shook her head, "No, I didn't coax you." Our Ji family really regards you as a lifesaver. One winter, Ji's family was so difficult that she couldn't take it, and she even saw her mother secretly gnawing on tree bark to eat in order to save a bite to eat for their brothers and sisters. If Gu Sifan hadn't gone into the mountains alone, covered in blood, dragging two wolves with intact fur and selling them for money to help them, I'm afraid their Ji family would all starve to death.
Yes, she is indeed a little ungrateful, if she hadn't deliberately thought about it, she would have forgotten such a deep kindness.
"Shouldn't a life-saver make a promise?" His long, calloused hand pulled down her veil and rubbed against her sleek face, his voice low and bewitching.
She couldn't help biting her lip, her heart trembled slightly, and her body trembled slightly.
Gu Sifan's eyes darkened, he directly buckled her waist, and bowed his head to print it, warm and fragrant, soft, even more intoxicating than what he dreamed of. He hugged the people tightly into his arms, and with a ruthlessness that was diametrically opposed to his coldness, he wantonly attacked the city.
The man's breath filled all her senses, and she was taken advantage of in a daze.
She struggled hard, but instead of avoiding it, she fueled the man's flames. As soon as the heat in his eyes gathered, tears flowed down his face, slid down his face and into his mouth, and bitterness spread on the tips of their tongues.
He left her lips with a blue face, gritted his teeth and said, "We kissed and kissed, hugged and hugged, and tomorrow I will send a matchmaker to the door to propose a kiss." Ji Ranjia, if you really think that I am kind to the Ji family, you will agree to this marriage. Otherwise, don't blame me for ruining your marriage, after all, you provoked me from the beginning. ”
After speaking, he strode out, said a few words to Ji Weihai and left.
Lu Xinghua stayed in the courtyard for a while, but he never saw Ji Ranjia's face, so he could only say goodbye regretfully and go back to the town in a carriage.
Ji Ranjia sat in front of the stove in a daze, her hand stroking her red and swollen lips with hot mouths, she was not really a girl who didn't know anything about love. It is precisely because she has experienced a man that when she was kissed by Gu Sifan, she was embarrassed and resistant, but she was moved to want to be swept away.
Yes, it's the kind of feeling of being loved in the tip of my heart, and tears come out to make a mess.
She whispered twice, buried her face in the crook of her arm, and didn't know what kind of mood to face the promise he had made tomorrow. There is relaxation and pleasure under the dust, and there is hesitation and helplessness for the future.
Ji Ranjia told Gu Sifan's words to Ji Weihai and Yu Yuan, so that they could be prepared.
"Girl, what do you think?" Yu Yuan gently hugged Nini, who was taking a big sip, and the happiness in his eyebrows and eyes never slipped down. She is happy herself, and she also hopes that her sister-in-law can find her lover soon.
"I, I'll try it," After saying this, she felt a lot more relaxed, and the burden that had been on her heart for half a year was finally lifted, and Ji Ranjia's eyes were warm and hopeful, maybe the two of them could really live the life of a fairy couple and join hands to the white head.
Seeing Ji Ranjia's little face showing shame, Yu Yuan hummed and said with a smile: "By the way, no one is perfect, as long as we don't want to marry, even the emperor Lao Tzu can pick out a basket when he comes to him." Gu Jieyuan's background is not as good as Dr. Lu, but he is motivated and relies on his own efforts to get Xie Yuan, not to mention that he will not be able to run away from the top three in the future. He is young and talented, and he will become an official more and more in the future, which is enough to protect you.
Besides, he knows our family well, and my eldest brother and I can rest assured that you marry him. Unlike the Lu family, their family has a big business, and there must be many relatives and friends, maybe there are some younger brothers and sisters competing for the family property. My sister-in-law heard that the mother-in-law of a big family can grind people better than us in the countryside, if you marry over, your eldest brother and I will not even be able to sleep well. ”
Ji Ranjia pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this, "Sister-in-law, my eldest brother must have been a good man in his last life, how could he be so blessed to marry a reasonable daughter-in-law like you?" Sister-in-law, aren't you the daughter of a family that has fallen into trouble? ”
Yu Yuan's face flushed when she said it, and he patted her shoulder in shame, "My sister-in-law's family is not rich and noble, my father was a talent when he was alive, I followed him to recognize a few words and listened to a few articles when I was young." ”
Listening to Yu Yuan's left and right, the balance in Ji Ranjia's heart shifted by two points to Gu Sifan.
On the second day, Ma Matchmaker really rode a white donkey to Ji's house again, and the two sides had already passed the gas, so as soon as Geng Tie exchanged, she took her fingers and counted them, and sighed.
"Aunt Ma, what's wrong? Do they not match? Yu Yuan sat in the inner room, and when he heard this voice through a curtain, his heart immediately rose up. I finally chose a brother-in-law, don't make any more moths.
"No, their eight characters are a little strange," Ma Matchmaker sighed: "Either they don't get along with each other in old age, or they are made in heaven to set up a pair!" Lang Jun protects the lady for a lifetime, and the lady is prosperous for Lang Jun's life, which is really good! ”
Yu Yuan and Ji Weihai's hearts fell heavily again, and they let out a long breath, full of joy.
Mrs. Ma took out the yellow calendar, looked at it for a few days, and said, "We are all small families, and we don't pay much attention to it, so how about coming according to the rules of the village?" ”
"There are no elders in our family, since my aunt is personally entrusted by Gu Jieyuan, she must be a trustworthy person, you have experienced a lot of things, we listen to you." Yu Yuan responded.
Ji Weihai, who was sitting with the matchmaker, echoed with a smile: "Auntie, you pick a day." ”
They still have half a month to get rid of the service, and the marriage will be placed on the sixth day after the removal, and the wedding date will be sixteen a month later, although it is a little rushed, but Ji Ranjia's age is here, and there will be no such good days in the next two months, and the weather will be cold.
Ji Weihai and Yu Yuan were stunned, thinking that their sister-in-law was about to become someone else's daughter-in-law, and their joyful hearts were immediately filled with the sorrow of parting.
After the discussion, Mrs. Ma was in a hurry to reply to Gu Sifan, but did not stay for dinner.
Waiting for Ji Weihai to send people away, Yu Yuan pinched Ji Ranjia's hand, which had been sitting with her across the curtain, sighed lightly and said, "It's been half a year since you came back, and your sister-in-law hasn't kissed you enough, and you're going to get married." ”
Ji Ranjia just came back to her senses from what Mrs. Ma said, "Sister-in-law, we don't live far away, you can take the baby to see me when the time comes." When I have time, I'll come and see my nephews and nieces. ”
"Don't," Yu Yuan hurriedly shook his head and nodded her forehead, "Our family doesn't have an old man to control it, and when you marry the Gu family, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and you can't be as casual as a girl in the family." You have to respect your in-laws, you have to take care of your concubines, and you are also very knowledgeable about getting along with your husband. ”
