223 Uncle (2nd Watch)
The sound of gongs and drums came from the front yard.
From Shi Huan's yard to the front yard, take the main road. The red silk that was not there yesterday had been hung on the stone lanterns this morning, but not everyone had them, one after the other.
After walking for a while, you can see children scurrying around, four or five years old, wearing auspicious and pleasing little jackets, with smiles brighter than the sun, clamoring to see the "bride" as they walk, and then they are carried away by their parents.
Mrs. Shi is receiving guests.
When the concubine got married, he invited some relatives who had more contacts on weekdays, and old friends in the officialdom who were not very high. After all, there are actually only a few tables of people, and they are not very busy. Turning around and seeing Shi Huan, he beckoned with a smile, "Huanhuan, come here." ”
Most of the ladies don't know each other, after all, those first-class ladies can't be invited, if they come, they will surrender their identity and raise the value of their concubines, if they don't come, but they make the relationship between the two families awkward, yes, which people to invite is also a science.
Shi Huan greeted them one by one, and saw his brother stretching his waist to come in, and stepped forward and asked with a smile, "You only learned the news today?" ”
"Yes, I woke up in the morning and was told that breakfast was not served yet." While instructing the little maid to get some food, he approached suspiciously and bit Shi Huan's ear, "Didn't you say that you will get engaged first, and then get married later?" Why was it suddenly so rushed? And this matter of marrying, if you don't call it, why do you skip me as a brother? ”
Shi Huan shook his head. She even learned about Shi Ruosheng's marriage from Shi Ruonan, how could she know the reason for these changes. She looked back at Kata Yu and asked silently. This girl seems to be usually silent, but there is no news in the house that she doesn't know.
Sure enough, Pian Yu owed slightly, and then said, "Go back to the master." It is the meaning of the other girl's parents. The girl's family runs a cloth shop in the imperial capital, and she has some savings over the years, and the matchmaker has also broken through the threshold. However, the girl herself has a high vision, and ordinary people look down on her, and she is now seventeen years old. No, I heard that it will be eighteen in a few days, and the other party's parents are anxious, saying that they will do this marriage before the age of eighteen...... Madame originally meant to wait until after the ceremony. No, as soon as they discussed, they directly turned the prepared engagement banquet into a wedding gift. ”
Shi Huan nodded, some ordinary families with savings are in line with his father's expectations, and with the subsidy of the Shi family's money, the life of the duty is not bad. There is no power behind him, so he can keep to himself.
She looked at Pian Yu with a smile, "Where did you get all this news?" ”
"The dining room is a gathering place for gossip and rumors in the mansion, every time the slave and maid pass by, they stop a little, they can know a lot of news, and with their own judgment, they can understand the affairs of the house." Even when answering such a question, the little girl looks serious, serious and cute.
Shi Huan was amused, "But you're not a gossip person." ”
"Slaves are not." Katayu shook his head, "But the master lives here, and the slave and maid always need to know more." ”
In fact, I want to say that since the master lives here, it is extremely important to know more about what is going to happen here, and judge whether it poses a threat to the master's safety based on this.
From the day she officially became "Ei", she was told that she was not going to be a maid, and that she needed to be the most vigilant about the safety of her surroundings at all times.
Even if it's in the Shi family. Even in all the places that seem extra safe. The more dangerous the place, the safer it is, and similarly, the safer the place, the more dangerous it is likely to be.
Shi Huan didn't know these meanings, and Shi Ruonan didn't know. At this moment, he just thought that this little girl's serious appearance looked very funny, and teased her with a smile, "You little girl is so conscientious, and you tell the gossip so righteously and strictly." ”
Who knows, this maid's face is straight, "The slave doesn't have it." "With a small face, he looks like a little beast defending his territory.
Shi Ruonan was stunned.
Shi Huan knew that Pian Yu was a person who said that one is one, and she said that understanding is really just understanding. patted the little girl's head at the moment and comforted, "It's okay, ignore him." When I was a child, I broke my head, and sometimes I don't know much here......" he said, pointing to his head, and then pulling Pian Yu to the side door, and the noise came from there, the bride ...... It's time to arrive.
In vain, Ruonan secretly grinded his teeth, but his eyes fell on the hairpin on Shi Huan's head that flashed brightly while walking, and his eyes were deep...... If you guess correctly, such a high-profile hairpin, your own little girl will not buy it...... It should be the one sent by Gu Ci, tsk.
And the rabbit she was holding in her arms just now......
Well. It looks delicious.
Thinking about it, Shi Ruonan licked his lips, but a palm suddenly fell from his shoulder, and the voice in his ears sounded, cold and deep, "If Young Master Shi thinks about roasting rabbits again...... Ben Gongzi doesn't mind letting you reminisce about the feeling of sleeping in the ice and snow. ”
The person who came was Gu Ci.
Shi Ruonan turned around, and saw Gu Gongzi looking at the back of the little girl with affection, and choked at the moment, "Shi Huan forgot about this, how can you still remember?" …… The rabbit, you sent it? ”
"Hmm." Gu Ci nodded, "Carefully cultivated in the royal hunting ground, I heard that the concubine took a fancy and was intercepted by me." If you roast them, I will skin you and send you to the hunting grounds...... Maybe the concubine can also take a fancy to you. ”
Why is this person so annoying when he speaks, what is it called peeling, and what is it that the concubine takes a fancy to him.
"That's an old thing from many years ago, what do you keep talking about it? Now that I'm so old, what do I look like to take two rabbits to roast in the woods? Let's talk ...... again," Shi Ruonan gritted his teeth and reminded, "Gu Ci." Just because you are bound to win my sister, you have to call me brother-in-law in the future. ”
Gu Ci raised his eyebrows, and finally retracted his gaze, looking at Shi Ruonan beside him, "So?" ”
Young Master Shi raised his eyebrows and threatened, "So, speak well." Have a better attitude towards your brother-in-law...... Otherwise, I won't let my sister marry you. ”
Partial, threatening this matter has never had an effect on Gu Gongzi, he patted Shi Ruonan, like looking at a fool, "It is said that the orders of parents, the words of matchmakers, and the opposition of your eldest brother may not work." And again......"
"And what?"
Gu Ci slowly stopped, looked at the direction in front of him where the girl left, and faced Shi Ruonan's doubts, lowered his voice, word by word, like a jade falling to the ground, "Even though His Majesty Chrysostom Jade ordered the Holy Decree to oppose me marrying her...... To no avail. ”
