Chapter 51: The Red Clothes Embroidery Workshop (Part II)

Things went smoothly that day unexpectedly.

Gu Xiyan chose clothes for Mrs. Gu in the house, and Duan Niang wanted to go to the shop to have a look. After Gu Xiyan chose clothes for Mrs. Gu, Duan Niang also returned to the wing room with a smile on her face, and she bent her knees to salute Gu Xiyan: "The twelfth aunt of the Marquis Jiang of the Weiyuan Mansion heard that the girl is here, and wants to come in and say hello to the girl?" ”

Gu Xiyan naturally had no reason to disagree.

When the sixth aunt heard this, she immediately busied with people making new tea.

Whelan took the initiative to go out and welcome Jinxin in.

Jinxin is younger than Duan Niang, in her early twenties, combing a tall cloud temples, full of pearls, fair skin, long face, curved eyebrows, and very gentle between the eyebrows. She very respectfully knelt on the ground and gave Gu Xiyan a big salute, which made Gu Xiyan a little surprised, and she was a little panicked at first.

Huilan, who was on the side, first cleverly put a cushion on the Taishi's chair under Jinxin's knees, and then mixed Jinxin when Jinxin performed half a salute.

Of course, Gu Xiyan would not treat Jinxin as a duanniang, politely gave her a blessing gift on her knees, and then personally poured her tea, Jinxin was also very polite, stood up and took the tea to thank her.

After the people on both sides sat down and exchanged a few words, Jinxin proposed to the sixth aunt that she wanted to go to the fish viewing platform in the backyard of the red dress with Gu Xiyan.

The sixth aunt was busy arranging, and Jinxin took Gu Xiyan to the backyard of the red dress, and Huilan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Duanniang: "Jinxin was the personal girl of the deceased Mrs. Gu, I'm afraid there is something intimate to say to the girl, it is not appropriate for you to follow." ”

A strange glint flashed in Whelan's eyes.

The fish viewing platform in the backyard of the red dress is a danqi, surrounded by large trees with branches and leaves like umbrellas, and under the trees there are several large fish tanks with a diameter of about three or four meters, and there are several water lilies and koi fish in the big fish tank. When they arrived, there were still two or three women feeding the fish and playing, and when they saw Jinxin and Gu Xiyan, the women only glanced at them indifferently. Then continue to feed the fish attentively.

Jin Xin whispered in Gu Xiyan's ear: "Let's go and sit on the stone chair in the forest for a while, and the Ninth Prince will bring Master Mei to greet me." Girl, take a look! ”

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smile and nodded.

Jinxin couldn't help muttering in her heart: Why are these two girls so generous?

They found a bench in the woods next to Danqi and sat down, and for a while, the two were silent. The atmosphere was a bit solemn. Gu Xiyan coughed lightly and politely said to Su Xin: "Is Aunt Jinxin a frequent visitor here?" I came out this time and wanted to make two summer clothes with Mrs. Gu, I don't know if you have any good recommendations? ”

Jinxin also felt that the atmosphere was a bit blunt, and she was looking for a topic to break the dull pattern, but now that Gu Xiyan opened her mouth, she naturally picked up the conversation very much: "Our house was originally born in Jiangmen, and the girl's female popularity is not very good." { Junzitang First Hair } is a frequent visitor to the needlework team. I went, and I got some of this habit too. It turns out that the one I often go to is called Pick Brocade, this is introduced by one of my sisters, and this is the second time I have come......

One has a heart, the other has a purpose. The atmosphere gradually became warmer.

After chatting for a while, they saw a little girl walking towards them, Jinxin was a little nervous, and said, "Girl, here, here." ”

Gu Xiyan hadn't reacted at first, but after understanding the meaning of this sentence, he couldn't help but stared at the little girl's back with wide eyes.

After a while, I saw two men coming side by side.

One was dressed in a white lichen garment covered with a layer of crimson silk. One is dressed in royal blue cocoon.

Jinxin whispered, "Girl, the one who wears royal blue is Master Mei." ”

While speaking, the two walked a few more steps, and Gu Xiyan had already seen the two clearly.

Mei Qin is not tall, only about 1.68 meters. Very fair skin. Trim eyebrows and handsome eyes, elegant temperament. Maybe it's because of age, and the body looks a little thin. The other one should be the ninth son of the Jiang family, he is half a head taller than Lord Mei, not much older, and average-looking, but Gu Panjian has a flying look, confident and open-minded, but he is more eye-catching than Lord Mei.

Jiang Jiugongzi took Mei Qin and pretended to give Jinxin a salute, and said, "Brother Mei and I happened to come to Hongshang to make clothes, and when I heard that my aunt was here, I came to ask for peace." As he spoke, his eyes stared at Gu Xiyan and turned straight away, but it was Mei Qin, who lowered his eyelids after glancing at Gu Xiyan, and an obvious red cloud immediately rose on his face.

Gu Xiyan wanted to smile when she saw it, and she had a good impression.

She sat there with a smile on her face and let Jiang Jiugongzi look up and down, but she looked embarrassed by Jiang Jiugongzi, coughing and coughing when she spoke, and became incoherent: "...... Auntie, aunt is hard to come out, I didn't see anything good today, it's not easy for my aunt to come out, I saw something good, I told me to know, and I took it to make my sister happy......"

Jinxin covered his mouth and laughed when he heard this, and made Jiang Jiugongzi's face flushed, and reluctantly said two more words that were appropriate to the situation, and pulled Mei Qin to run away.

Gu Xiyan was happy in his heart, he didn't expect Mei Qin and that Jiang Jiu Gongzi to be so shy, especially Mei Qin, who seemed to be a high school student, but he was only twenty years old, and he was also a high school student in modern society. He can enter high school at such a young age, so he must be very good at learning...... Gu Xiyan no longer had the original indifference to this marriage in his heart.

They also got up and went back to the wing, and on the way Jinxin asked her, "How?" ”

Gu Xiyan's face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "I don't know what people are doing?" ”

Jinxin ate and laughed.

Gu Xiyan's face blushed even more, lowered her head and hurriedly walked forward, and suddenly bumped into someone else's body, and raised her backwards, and Jinxinyan, who followed closely behind her, hurriedly supported her: "How is it, didn't you hit anywhere?" ”

"Miss Gu, why are you?" The other party exclaimed.

Gu Xiyan held Jinxin's hand and stood firmly, only to find out that the person he had hit turned out to be Mr. Huang. A feeling of "meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country" rose in her heart, and she said with a little excitement: "Mr. Huang, why are you?" ”

Mr. Huang's expression seemed to be a little haggard compared to when she was in the Immortal Class, and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes were like ripples of water on the surface of a lake.

Jinxin asked confusedly: "This is ......?"

Gu Xiyan didn't want to make a fuss, so he told a lie: "Oh, this is Mr. Huang, who taught me homework for a few days!" ”

Jinxin put his heart at ease, blessed Mr. Huang, and politely called "Mr. Huang".

Mr. Huang returned the salute to Jinxin, then nodded to Gu Xiyan and walked towards the backyard of the red dress.

Gu Xiyan also knew that it was not the time to speak, so he returned to the wing room with Jinxin.

After returning to the wing, Jinxin said a few words to them and said goodbye, Duanniang naturally wanted to personally send her to explore the mouth and place casually, Gu Xiyan ordered two skirts from Liugu, a royal blue embroidered white-edged Longhua skirt, and a peach-colored gold-woven flower silk eight-piece skirt, all for Mrs. Gu.

The group happily got into the carriage and prepared to go back, especially Duan Niang, with a smile on the corners of her mouth and eyebrows, Gu Xiyan felt a little embarrassed at this time, lowered her head and was silent.

Huilan felt that the atmosphere in the car was a little strange, and faintly felt that Duanniang and they had something to hide from themselves, thinking of their efforts during this time, a sense of grievance rose in her heart, and she couldn't help but turn her face angrily and opened the curtain to look out. At this moment, the car suddenly stopped, Gu Xiyan was jolted, and her body couldn't be restrained and fell on Duanniang, Duanniang was hit with an "oops", Gu Xiyan asked in a panic: "What's the matter, where can I hit it?" ”

Duan Niang sat up straight and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

This bump woke Whelan upside down.

When is it now, can you still be angry!

She turned around and smiled, "It doesn't matter, but it was a little unsteady when I walked out of the red dress gate just now." ”

This is also a common thing, and everyone doesn't care about it. But when the carriage left Dongshi and drove to the intersection of Chongyefang and Pingkangfang, the carriage was suddenly stopped, and someone said in a rough voice: "Inspection, all the people will come out for me." ”

Whelan lifted the window in surprise and looked out, and Gu Xiyan also leaned over.

I saw soldiers in cool silver armor standing around Qinrenfang and Pingkangfang, all of them were like facing a great enemy, their expressions were solemn, many carriages and pedestrians stopped, under inspection, some were silent, some muttered, some whispered, but no one made a loud noise.

Gu Xiyan heard their coachman arrogantly replying: "We are from the mansion of Lord Gu Baozhang of Tongyi Fang, and the people sitting here are all relatives, so it is inconvenient to come down." Whoever of you is on an errand, let him come up and answer. Someone said "Huh" and said: "Lao Tzu hasn't returned to Beijing for a few years, and I can't imagine that a little coachman from Sanpin has the courage to command our Yulin Army." You give Lao Tzu to come down immediately, otherwise Lao Tzu will take you first today! There was endless sarcasm in his breath.

Gu Xiyan looked over, and the person who spoke was next to their carriage, tall, wearing a black armor, with a fierce face, and a cold breath between his eyebrows, which made people feel cold.

When the coachman saw it, he trembled with fright, and he said incoherently: "Master Jun, my lord, the villain doesn't know that it is the Yulin Army, and the adult doesn't care about the villain...... It's really my girl sitting in this car...... If something happens to me, my whole family won't pay for it...... Your Excellency, you are a master ......."

The man didn't say a word, his hand was raised, and the driver fell to the bottom of the car with an "oops" and didn't get up for half a day, his face immediately turned red, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding.

Only then did Gu Xiyan see clearly, the man was holding a big knife with a sheath in his hand, and he couldn't tell what kind of material the scabbard was made of, and he felt very old.

The man stepped forward and stepped on the coachman's chest: "Lao Tzu is an errand boy, I'll answer your words now!" ”

The coachman hugged his chest and feet, and his face showed a look of pain.
