Chapter 171: Marriage is Heavenly

Fang Shaoqin entered the second door with some trepidation.

On a spring morning, the air is still a little cold, and the sky is like a fish's white belly, and there are several magnificent brilliances that can't wait to bloom at the junction of the sky.

The small courtyard is quiet, the towering tree on the left has spit out green buds, but the rattan trellis on the right has not moved, but the three main houses facing north are bright at the east end, and the west side is connected with two dark strange patterns. It's already spring, and the door is still covered with a blue Dora curtain for winter. Two fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls, one on the left and one on the right, are neatly wearing indigo jackets and combing their hair in a double-ring bun.

When she came, the family had already told her about the Yanguo Mansion, and now the wife of the Yan Guogong Qi Haoxin, Gu, is his aunt and cousin, and it is said that she is only sixteen years old, one year younger than her.

Immediately behind her was her adoptive mother, Mama Shi, who had been with her since she was a child, and saw her girl's hands squeezed tightly, knowing that she was a little nervous, she hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to her ear: "Girl, you are from Xizhao......"

Fang Shaoqin smiled bitterly.

Others don't know, but she knows it in her heart.

Gaochang, such an important position, the Empress Dowager's ancestors were all given to the Qi Mansion, and it was hereditary...... If it wasn't really out of the question, how could you make this decision...... I only hope that my belly will be angry, and I can give birth to a son as my ancestors told me when I came, otherwise...... This Gaochang is given to the Qi Mansion for nothing...... I am the sinner of Xizhao!

The little girl standing in front of the curtain had seen her, and whispered something into the curtain, and a tall woman came out.

Wearing an autumn-colored jacket and a round bun, he showed a face as white as the moon.

She showed a kind smile from a distance: "It's Miss Fang." I'm my aunt in Madame's house. Madame is waiting for the girl! ”

can be called "aunt" and grandma, usually a figure that the masters have to respect.

Fang Shaoqin and the people behind her all bent their knees to salute Duanniang, Fang Shaoqin shouted "Aunt Duan" when she got up, and then looked at Duanniang carefully, remembering this person in her heart.

Duan Niang returned the gift. Yan Hong, who was standing outside to greet the guests, lifted the curtain for Fang Shaoqin and the others.

Fang Shaoqin and his entourage entered the house, and a hot breath came to their faces.

It's already April, and I didn't expect the fire wall to burn in the house.

This made Fang Shaoqin, who had lived in the south for a long time, feel a little comfortable and breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

Whether it is from the current level of Gu Xiyan or the rules of the Xizhao clan. Not everyone brought by Fang Shaoqin could follow her to see Mrs. Jingsui. So Duan Niang instructed the maidservant: "Xingyu." Make tea for a few grandmothers and sisters. ”

Xingyu responded crisply, and brought the hot tea that had been prepared to the people around Fang Shaoqin.

Fang Shaoqin was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that this Gu family, who had never met, would be so polite to her.

She calmed her mind slightly, and entered the inner room with Duan Niang with a smile that was neither arrogant nor humble on her face.

Gu Xiyan was sitting on the Xiangfei couch in the living room of the inner room, and saw a beautiful girl walking in, knowing that it was Fang Shaoqin, she stood up with a sweet smile on her face.

"It's Miss Fang, right? It's been a great journey! ”

Fang Shaoqin stepped forward quickly, and bent her knees seven or eight steps away from Gu Xiyan: "Fang Shaoqin greets Mrs. Jingsui!" "She moves gracefully. A beaded hairpin on the sideburns shook slightly, without making a little sound, and although the voice was clear, the voice was a little tight.

Gu Xiyan suddenly thought of the scene when she first met Liu Mei as a child.

They are all the same women who have received a very strict education for ladies.

The smile on her face was not only sweet, but also kind.

Mama Shi, who was following behind Fang Shaoqin, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she followed Fang Shaoqin to give Gu Xiyan a salute.

The Duchess of Yanguo, Gu Shi, didn't seem to be the kind of tricky person to go.

The girl married under this circumstance, and she hoped to be loved by Qi Hao and his wife...... After all, Qi Mansion is still Qi Hao's house now!

Fang Shaoqin stood up prettyly and stood quietly with her hands down. Waiting for Gu Xiyan to speak.

Gu Xiyan asked Mo Ju to move the embroidery pier to sit for her. Jade served her tea.

During the action, the afterglow from the corner of Fang Shaoqin's eyes quickly glanced at Gu Xiyan.

She was slightly frightened. The hand holding the lid cup couldn't help but tremble, and there was a crisp sound of hitting porcelain.

Qi Hao's continuation Gu Shi was wearing a thin true red hip-length jacket embroidered with a butterfly double flying pattern, and under his body was a dark green eight-panel skirt, which looked extremely delicate and soft, if he didn't know it in advance, he wouldn't look like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Like all the women of the noble clan who came from prominent families and had not experienced the hardships of life, she had fine skin, delicate features, and delicate features, but the difference was that her eyes had the curiosity of a girl who did not know the world, but also had a quiet calmness. Calm and enthusiastic, two completely opposite emotions, but harmoniously appeared in her eyes, not only impressive, but also gave people a very peculiar feeling, as if, as if the woman in front of you, her body is here, but her soul is flying freely and freely.

At all, as described in Mrs. Xu's letter, the Gu family was only chosen as Qi Hao's wife because of her good looks.

These thoughts flashed by, and just when Fang Shaoqin made a slight sound of touching porcelain, she heard a sigh of nothingness, with a little pity and a little reluctance. She felt that this sigh was too abrupt, and when she was about to listen carefully, Gu Shi had already opened her mouth to ask her about her daily life in the past few days. Fang Shaoqin did not hear it wrong, that sigh was exactly what Gu Xiyan overflowed.

As Qi Maosheng said, the girl sent by the Fang family is not only beautiful, but also wise. She is like a willow growing in the spring breeze, seemingly supple, but with life tenacity and enthusiasm, inadvertently, her watery eyes will flash with insight into the world full of wisdom light.

Gu Xiyan sighed in his heart.

If there was no scene in Dexin Academy, Qi Yuzhi and Fang Shaoqin's appearance, life experience and even temperament. They can be called a pair of beautiful people!

Thinking of the dilemma that Fang Shaoqin would face. Gu Xiyan's heart couldn't help but soften.

She looked at Fang Shaoqin with a smile and spoke to Fang Shaoqin with the same concern as a friend.

"Grandpa Guo heard that the Fang family was willing to marry the girl, and he was happy for several days. Yandi is cold, you grew up in Jiangnan, and there must be a lot of unsatisfactory things in life. "Speaking of which. She set her eyes on Mama Shi, "Mama is the girl's adoptive mother, and she accompanied the girl from afar." Speaking of which. It's like her mother. The girl is young and thin-skinned, if there is anything inconvenient, you just have to tell me, you can't wronged her. ”

Fang Shaoqin and Mama Shi were both stunned, especially Mama Shi, she didn't expect Gu Xiyan to say such a thing to lift herself, she hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down respectfully: "The slave must be careful to teach Madame's teachings." Take good care of our girls! Fang Shaoqin also said: "Thank you Madame for your concern!" Along the way, thanks to Qi Ye's care, everything is fine! ”

"That's good!" Gu Xiyan motioned for Cuiyu to pick up Mama Shi and said, "Who is in the family to send the relatives?" ”

Fang Shaoqin said unhurriedly: "It's my lobby brother Fang Shaosi and cousin Feng Tianxiang." ”

Feng Tianxiang?

Gu Xiyan was slightly stunned.

Did I really guess it?

She couldn't help but look at Fang Shaoqin carefully, but unfortunately a girl was wearing a hat at that time, and after a few years, it was really difficult to find the shadow of the year from her.

Gu Xiyan pretended to groan: "Feng." Could it have anything to do with Lord Feng of the Liang Ting Governor's Mansion? ”

Fang Shaoqin said with a smile: "Feng Tianxiang is the son of Feng Qingyun of the Liang Ting Governor's Mansion. ”

Gu Xiyan couldn't help laughing. She said: "I didn't expect that your family and the Feng family are also relatives!" ”

"My father once served under Lord Feng. The mother of the family is frail, thanks to the care of Mrs. Feng. In addition, Mrs. Feng's maiden family Song, who is of the same clan as her mother, recognized her aunt. Fang Shaoqin explained.

Gu Xiyan nodded with a smile.

Fang Shaoqin looked at Gu Xiyan with a little sly smile, and suddenly thought that on the day she first heard the marriage news, her mother cried aggrievedly, but she heard that it was Qi Yuzhi who was going to be married, and it was the boundless joy that surged in her heart when she saw the handsome son in Qixiaguan.

A cloud of mist rose over her face.

Gu Xiyan left Fang Shaoqin for breakfast, Fang Shaoqin politely excused herself and responded.

At that time, food was scarce, and it was a very grand etiquette to keep people to eat, and there was even a saying of "the grace of a meal".

Gu Xiyan didn't know what Fang Shaoqin liked to eat, and the breakfast arrangement was spring cakes and white porridge.

She can allow Qi Maosheng to eat in the place where she sleeps, but it doesn't mean that she can also allow others to sit on her bed. So, breakfast was eaten in the hall.

Spring cake is the dough cake filling.

There were no less than 20 kinds of ground fillings on the white porcelain plate, and a small bamboo basket was placed in the east and west corners of the square table, in which were the thin cakes that had been baked. If you want to eat any filling, you order a plate, and the cloth next to you will wrap it in a small plate in front of you.

Fang Shaoqin glanced at Gu Xiyan with some emotion.

Being able to come up with such a considerate way to entertain guests now seems to be not such a simple person.

The two ate in silence, and both found that each other's posture was elegant, their demeanor was calm, and they had the style of everyone.

I don't know why, but the two looked at each other and smiled.

Those rustiness and estrangement seem to have become much more indifferent in this smile.

After breakfast, Gu Xiyan was a little unruly, and sent her too politely to the second gate before returning.

In the afternoon of the same day, Fang Shaoqin will leave for Yongzhou, and when Gu Xiyan will go back, it will depend on Qi Maosheng's "illness".

In the evening, Qi Maosheng looked at the spy report crookedly, Gu Xiyan couldn't read it anymore after reading a few pages, she lay on Qi Maosheng's shoulder and bit his ear: "Maosheng, let me tell you, that Fang Shaoqin is really the sister who found a quarrel with Qi Yuzhi in Qixiaguan, you say, is this a coincidental marriage...... If not...... I really hope they can live happily. ”

In fact, she wanted to say, "It would be nice if there was no Wei Shiying in the middle", but then she thought that this matter was planned by Mrs. Wei herself, and it was related to Ye Zisu's reputation, so she couldn't help swallowing.

Qi Maosheng was looking at something very seriously, and when he heard what Gu Xiyan said in his ear, he took the time to cheer up and let out a "hmm".

Gu Xiyan didn't listen to him at all when he looked like that, so he couldn't help but sit up straight, and snuggled on the pillow beside him.
