Chapter 100: Entering Beijing 15
The reason why Guo Manting said this is because the golden step on Liu Ye's head was also Guo Manting's eye before.
However, her father, Guo Tingbiao, the assassin of Yangzhou, felt that the price of 8,000 taels of silver was too expensive, so he did not buy it for her on the grounds that he was an official of the imperial court and could not buy expensive jewelry.
At this time, Guo Manting saw that Liu Ye was wearing the golden step he liked, and she couldn't help but feel jealous in her heart, so she had such a statement.
After saying these words, Guo Manting immediately thought of Ye Yixing's family background.
She guessed that Ye Yixing originally seemed to be from a poor family, but now that Liu Ye is dressed so elegantly, could it be that Ye Yixing's family background still has an inside story, could it be that he is behind a famous family living in seclusion in a mountain village?
Thinking like this, Guo Manting's heart is even more like a kitten scratching its claws, unable to be at peace.
So she said to Xiao Lu beside her: "I said so many words, you didn't even squeak, are you stupid?" If you can't even speak, don't stay with me, and you'll have the clever ones to make up for it. ”
Xiao Lu listened to Guo Manting's words, so she quickly changed her smile and said to Guo Manting: "I heard everything that Miss said, so I forgot to answer for a while, I think what Miss said is really right, what does that Ye Yixing's lady compare with you?" It's just a poor village woman. You are better than her in everything, more beautiful than her, better than her family background, and more temperamental than her, if I want me to say that Ye Gongzi still doesn't know you, if he understands you, he will definitely marry you and divorce her. ”
Guo Manting couldn't help but feel overjoyed when she heard Xiao Lu's words, so she said with a smile: "Since you say so, I will keep you, otherwise I really want to change to a smart and clever person, and sometimes I feel very difficult to talk to you." ”
Xiao Lu listened to Guo Manting's words, and was very worried about being driven away by her, so she hurriedly continued to smile and said: "Miss, I know, how can I be as smart as Miss, but by Miss's side, I also have a lot of light, much smarter than before, I will definitely continue to work hard in the future, I will not disappoint Miss, and please Miss don't drive me away." ”
Guo Manting pinched Xiao Lu and felt very happy, so she said with a smile: "Okay, since you beg me like this, then I will keep you, and then see your performance." ”
Xiao Lu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Miss." ”
At this time, Xiao Lu slandered in her heart: You, Guo Manting, have really wasted the title of Miss Shijia in vain, how can you have a little bit of everyone's beautiful temperament? If you want me to say, you are far from Ye Yixing's lady, and at first glance, you are a person in the show, and you are more than a step above you. If I were Ye Yixing, I wouldn't look down on you, and you deserve to be hated. Because you are a very utilitarian person and extremely unkind, if I were a man, I would not like you.
After scolding Xiao Lu, Guo Manting remembered her thoughts again.
She thought to herself: With Ye Yixing's talent, I am afraid that I will definitely be a jinshi when I go to the capital this time, and there is such a tradition in Qingguo, which is called catching a son-in-law under the list. All the young people who have been admitted to the Jinshi, once they are released from the list, before they go home, they are next to the list, and they are snatched away by the nobles or powerful families who have taken a fancy to them, and they are snatched to be sons-in-law at home. This matter is also a good story in this dynasty. Because some newly selected Jinshi have poor families, if they can marry a daughter of a noble family or a woman from a family at this time, it is equivalent to adding weight to their careers, so this matter can be regarded as wishful thinking. The imperial court doesn't care either.
Thinking about this, Guo Manting couldn't help but feel a little anxious, she was very worried that Ye Yixing would arrive in the capital and be caught in someone else's house under the list.
This is something she can't accept.
So, Guo Manting thought that she had to go back to her home immediately to see her father Guo Tingbiao and tell him that she was going to the capital.
After arriving in the capital, she also had to keep an eye on Ye Yixing, in case Yixing was snatched away by other women.
At this time, Guo Manting was really fascinated by lamp oil, and she didn't want to think about it, Ye Yixing already had a wife, how could she be caught by others.
was caught by others, how could Ye Yixing be willing to take a break from his original partner Liu Ye and marry someone else?
Even if Ye Yixing is willing to marry someone else, it will not be her turn Guo Manting.
But Guo Manting didn't care about this, and immediately asked the driver to drive back to the house quickly.
At this time, Ye Yixing and the others were already galloping towards the capital on the official road.
When it was time to stay in the hotel and rest at noon, Liu Ye got out of the carriage.
Ye Yixing saw Liu Ye coming down, hurriedly came over, and said to her with a smile: "I've been in the carriage this morning, but I'm tired?" Have a good rest at noon, I think the food here is okay, I picked some that suit your taste, you can taste it later. ”
Liu Ye knew that Ye Yixing was here to please her now.
Because of what happened to Guo Manting, Ye Yixing must have felt a little weak-hearted.
Although this incident had nothing to do with Ye Yixing, it happened after all.
Ye Yixing knew that Liu Ye's heart would definitely not be happy at this moment.
In fact, Liu Ye's heart is really unhappy.
At this moment, Liu Ye saw Ye Yixing's smiling face, knowing that he was accompanying him carefully, and he still couldn't pass this hurdle in his heart.
So, Liu Ye said lightly to Ye Yixing: "Thank you, son." Childe is also tired of carriage and horses, so he should also have a good rest. I don't have to worry about my affairs, I'm a poor village woman, what can't I handle by myself? I'm not as arrogant as those ladies from families. Childe doesn't have to be here with me, bother. ”
Ye Yixing listened to Liu Ye's words, and knew Liu Ye, because Guo Manting's matter was really unhappy.
In fact, for Ye Yixing, this matter is also a disaster.
But Ye Yixing couldn't say it, so he asked Liu Ye not to care about Guo Manting at all.
After all, no matter who it is, in front of Liu Ye, saying so many hints that he wants to pursue Ye Yixing, and even wants to replace Liu Ye as his wife, it will make Liu Ye feel very unhappy.
So, Ye Yixing hurriedly explained: "I knew that Guo Manting was a troublemaker. Who would have thought that she would speak so openly, what she said, don't take it to heart, she is just a clown in my eyes, you don't have to take her to heart at all. ”
When Liu Ye heard Ye Yixing's words, he smiled and said, "When did I take that Guo Manting to heart?" Who you like and who you don't like, that's your own business, I don't have to worry about it. As I said earlier, we are together because we all feel comfortable. If one day I want to live a freer life, I'll leave. So. You don't have to be careful. You can do whatever you want, if you like any woman, you like it, what does it have to do with me? ”
Ye Yixing listened to Liu Ye's words and knew that Liu Ye was completely angry.
