Chapter 44: Xiao Xiao was arranged on a blind date

However, what Xiaolan said made her have to beware, Jiang Zhiyuan is both talented and beautiful, which will inevitably attract the covetousness of many women. Li Xiangcheng on the front foot hadn't gone far, and a sea rose came on the back foot.

Jiang Zhiyuan had already expressed her intentions, but she didn't agree, and she hesitated. She also asked herself what she was hesitating about, but she didn't dare to entrust this life to others easily.

If you save your life in your own hands, you can get more security than others. If you don't get married, you won't be suspected of being a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and if you don't get married, there won't be a concubine.

But she thought about it, Jiang Zhiyuan's mother Wu died early, and Jiang Zhiyuan had no intention of continuing the strings, so there was no suspicion of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Jiang Zhiyuan is an only son, and there will be no concubines, nor will he suffer from the gossip of seven aunts and eight aunts. I can't find fault with marrying Jiang Zhiyuan!

Oh, I almost forgot, she still has her parents who are still alive, and she hasn't had time to repay the favor, how can she marry early.

It has been three months since Han Tianlei got married, and in order to make a living, the matchmaker in Yangzhou began to pull the red line for the school-age sons and young ladies of each family.

Previously, a matchmaker came to the door to say goodbye, but Guo Xiaoxiao blocked him on the grounds that he was unwell. But she went to Zijinfang every day to do business, and she couldn't hold it under the guise of being ill.

Master Guo did not refuse, only said that the female university would not stay, and asked Guo Xiaoxiao to find a time to meet the son introduced by the matchmaker. Mrs. Guo has always followed the three virtues and four virtues, and married her husband, since Master Guo agreed, Mrs. Guo did not dare to say anything.

Guo Xiaoxiao has been making a hairband for sea roses for the past few days, and finally couldn't resist Mrs. Guo's persuasion and went to the Drunken Immortal Building. This son is Murong Lang, the son of Master Murong of Chengnan Qianzhuang, and he has long set a private room to wait for Guo Xiaoxiao in the Zuixian Building.

Xiaolan was very careful to dress up Guo Xiaoxiao.

Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Aren't you on his side?" I'm going on a blind date this time, what are you doing for me to dress up so well? ”

Xiaolan knew that the "he" Guo Xiaoxiao said was Jiang Zhiyuan.

"The slave maid really hopes that the young lady can be harmonious with the young master, but the lady wants the slave and the maid to dress up the young lady beautifully, otherwise the slave and maid will ask. How dare the slave slacken! ”

Guo Xiaoxiao nodded and didn't say anything.

Drunken Immortal Building's business is a little depressed today, and Xiao Er led Guo Xiaoxiao to the private room. A man in a black robe stood in front of the window.

When Childe heard the footsteps, he turned around and saw Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up.

Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his head and bowed: "Murong Gongzi is good." ”

Murong Lang smiled and stepped forward to help Guo Xiaoxiao up: "Get up quickly, don't be polite." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao stepped back a little. Murong Lang also realized that he seemed to be overly enthusiastic, so he only said, "Sit." ”

Xiao Er said at the right time: "Master Murong, the guests have arrived, do you want to order now?" ”

Murong Lang looked at Guo Xiaoxiao: "Do you want to order now?" Still is? ”

Guo Xiaoxiao kept his head down and said softly: "It's all right, just arrange it for the son." ”

Murong Lang moved the hand on his knee and said with a smile: "Then order it now, get the menu." ”

Xiao Er hurriedly presented the booklet, Murong Lang gave him a look, and Xiao Er put the menu in front of Guo Xiaoxiao very interestingly.

Guo Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand and opened the menu, suppressed by the atmosphere, and had no mood to order at all.

"What does Childe like to eat?" Guo Xiaoxiao raised his eyes and asked.

Murong Lang met Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes, fascinated by her smart eyes, and said half-loudly: "I'm free, you can order whatever you like." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao thought to himself, although he could say anything, but if Guo Xiaoxiao really ordered everything according to his liking, I am afraid that there would be few dishes that would meet Murong Lang's taste.

"I heard that the signature dishes of your Zuixian Mansion are the most flavorful, so let's serve those signature dishes." Guo Xiaoxiao said to Xiao Er.

"Okay."

"That's right." Guo Xiaoxiao stopped Xiao Er and asked Murong Lang, "Can the son eat spicy?" ”

"Eat some." He laughed.

Guo Xiaoxiao said to Xiao Er again: "Then just put some spicy." ”

Xiao Er said "yes" and stepped back with the menu.

Murong Lang's eyes almost never left Guo Xiaoxiao, and the smile on his face could not be hidden.

"Unexpectedly, Miss Guo likes spicy food?" He laughed.

"What's wrong?"

"No, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that I looked at Miss Guo's gentle appearance, but I didn't expect that she liked spicy food. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his eyes and did not answer.

"Miss Guo, it's much better than the painting." He said again.

"Is it because the painting is deliberately ugly?" She asked.

"No, no, no." Murong Lang's hand on his knee kept wiping his knee, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

The two were embarrassed for a while, and then Murong Lang said: "My family has 100 acres of fertile land and 10,000 acres of surplus grain, if Miss Guo marries into the Murong family, then she will be the future manager of the Murong family." ”

"But I'm ...... But I'm not very good at taking care of things. ”

"It doesn't matter." He immediately answered, "If you don't want to take care of things, you can also leave it to the housekeeper to take care of." My father urged me very much, and he has been arranging blind dates for me for a few days. I also met several girls, but I didn't see them. ”

When Guo Xiaoxiao heard him say this, he couldn't help but get nervous.

"Miss Guo looks gentle and lovely, dignified and elegant, is a lover in the show of wisdom, I feel that when I see the girl, my heart is rippling, like a spring breeze. If the girl doesn't dislike it, can you consider considering my Murong family. ”

"Where did Childe say? The Guo family is a small family, and being able to marry the Murong family is already attached, how can there be dislike. ”

When Murong Lang heard this, his smile was even more difficult to suppress, and he wanted to speak, but Xiao Er knocked on the door and came in. Delicious meals are served one after the other, and it takes several minutes to finish serving.

Seeing that Murong Lang was going to continue the topic just now, Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and said, "Son, let's eat, otherwise the food will not taste good if it is cold." ”

"That's right." Murong Lang smiled and picked up chopsticks to eat.

Although he was eating vegetables, his eyes still couldn't help but glance at Guo Xiaoxiao. Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his head, and when he saw that he had been staring at him, he felt uncomfortable.

At that moment, there was a commotion outside the window.

"Someone has fallen into the water, come on!" An old woman shouted. After a while, I heard the sound of falling water.

Guo Xiaoxiao put down his chopsticks and said, "Listen to the sound coming from Wanhu." ”

"Seems like so."

"Check it out." Guo Xiaoxiao got up and walked to the window.

Murong Lang also followed.

The Zuixian Building has a high floor, and the surrounding scenery can be seen at a glance, and the Wanhu Lake in the distance can also be seen. Guo Xiaoxiao stood by the window and looked down, only to see a group of people gathered on an embankment of Wan Lake, looking at the lake.

The lake was startled and rippling, but there were no people in sight. Suddenly, a man popped up in the lake. The man's hair was wet and covered his face, and it was impossible to see who it was. He looked towards the lake, then took a deep breath and went back into the water.

Guo Xiaoxiao stood by the window for a while, and suddenly felt someone behind her gently hugging her waist.

"Childe!" Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly stepped aside.

"Don't be afraid." Murong Lang left her a few points, "If you don't worry, I'll stay away from you." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao looked up at him, and saw that his eyes were sincere, so he didn't break out of the door.

Xiaolan's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, the master has instructed you to go back to the house at noon, you can't delay, have you forgotten?" ”

"yes, if you don't say I'll forget." Guo Xiaoxiao raised his voice and said to Murong Lang, "I'm really sorry, my father told me to go back to the house at noon, and I will leave first." ”

Murong Lang wanted to step forward and grab Guo Xiaoxiao, but as soon as his hand was stretched out, she avoided him. Guo Xiaoxiao opened the door, and Xiaolan knew that the situation was not good as soon as she saw her expression. The two quickly got down the escalator and left the Drunken Immortal Tower.

Murong Lang's servant was also guarding outside the private room, and when he saw Murong Lang coming out, the servant said, "I just told you not to be impatient, you can see and scare people away." ”

"I don't need you to be verbose." Murong Lang straightened his clothes.

"If you are always like this, in the future, who will dare to marry a girl in Yangzhou City to marry into our house."

"Shut your foul mouth."

He scolded him back with a look, and the little guy didn't dare to say more.

Guo Xiaoxiao and Xiaolan walked along the lilacs when they got out of the drunken fairy building.

Guo Xiaoxiao wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said with disgust: "This Murong Lang thought he was a humble gentleman, but he didn't expect to be a well-dressed beast. ”

Xiaolan followed Guo Xiaoxiao's steps: "Fortunately, Miss had a plan, and it was expected that Murong Gongzi might have unclean hands and feet, so let the slave knock on the door at the right time, so he avoided him." That matchmaker Liang also doesn't know people, how can she send such a person to our Guo Mansion. ”

"How could she not know what Murong Gongzi is like, just receiving other people's money and having to do things for others. The matchmaker has a living mouth, and she can tell the dead alive, and she can't complain that her father and mother believe her nonsense. ”

"Miss must tell the lord and the lady about this, otherwise how can the young lady vent her anger for the grievances."

"It's okay to vent your anger, I just want my father and mother to know that few of those matchmakers are reliable, and it's better not to be credulous in the future."

"That's what Miss said."

At this time, an old mother rushed towards Guo Xiaoxiao and Xiaolan.

"Miss Guo, an embroidery girl in your embroidery workshop has fallen into the water, you can go and take a look."

"Falling overboard." Guo Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "Aunt Jin is from Wanhu?" ”

"Yes, yes, fortunately, Dr. Yuan from the pharmacy passed by and rescued her. You go and take a look, you might be out of gas. ”

This old mother is an alley seller of baked cakes, her real surname is Hang, and when she married her husband's surname, she became Aunt Jin. Guo Xiaoxiao will pass by her baked cake stall every day, and sometimes she will buy a few baked cakes when she is greedy, and she will know Guo Xiaoxiao when she comes and goes.

Listening to Aunt Jin's tone, Guo Xiaoxiao knew that the matter was critical, and hurriedly ran to Wanhu Lake with his skirt. On the shore where the embroidered girl fell into the water, she was surrounded by a group of people.

Guo Xiaoxiao took Xiaolan to squeeze in through the crowd and saw Yuan Shaocheng doing chest compressions on a girl.

Xiaolan exclaimed, "Miss, it's Zipei!" ”
