Chapter 118: I Believe in Him
"No, no, no, don't worry, it's naturally my blessing that the county prince can appreciate me, it's just ......" Gu Liwu was a little embarrassed.
"Just what? You just say, if there is any dissatisfaction, I will solve it! Ye Zhongyao saw that Gu Liwu did not refuse directly, and he also saved some face, and said arrogantly.
Gu Liwu looked at Si Li, and finally said: "It's just that you are Ah Li's grandfather, if you accept me as your righteous son, wouldn't this be a mess of generations......
"......" Si Li didn't react, Ye Zhongyao suddenly realized and smiled:
"It's because I'm old and confused, I forgot that you and Xiao Li are friends, so I won't accept my son, you are the same as Xiao Li, how about calling my grandfather? By the way, how old are you? ”
"Nine years old in March." Gu Liwu actually replied a little embarrassed.
"March...... Nine-year-old ......" Ye Zhongyao muttered, reacted, looked at Si Li's puzzled appearance, and smiled at the two: "Then it's decided, Ah Wei, you are three years older than Xiao Li, you can take care of Xiao Li more in the future." ”
Si Li felt that his grandfather was also strange today, but he couldn't say that there was anything wrong, but he was so happy that he thought that Ah Wei would live in Yugong Mansion in the future.
"That's great, in the future, you will live in this Yulan Courtyard, I will be in the Yusheng Courtyard, we are very close, I can come to you every day to play!"
"Okay, Ah Wei still needs to rest more, you can stop a few days, don't bother him." Ye Zhongyao looked at Si Li so happy, and still said.
"Got it, got it."
——
"Hurry up and call Dr. Wang!" Twilight Spring and Chuan Xia were soaked, climbed onto the pond full of lotus seeds, and carefully placed Si Li, who had accidentally fallen into the pond, on the ground, ignoring the mud and dirt all over their bodies, and called Si Li anxiously.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry." Si Li got up, and Lian Xia had already gone back to Yusheng Courtyard to get a thin cloak and put it on Si Li.
Si Li originally thought that the weather had been hot recently, so he came to pick some lotus seeds for Gu Liwu to go to the fire, but he accidentally fell.
Twilight Chun and Lian Xia helped Si Li back to Yusheng Courtyard, Ye Zhongyao and Dr. Wang also hurried over, Ye Zhongyao was very worried, fortunately, Dr. Wang said after the examination that Si Li's body has always been good, just drink some cold medicine, Ye Zhongyao is still not at ease, and asked Si Li carefully.
Since the last time he woke up, Gu Lixian has been staying in Yulan Courtyard to recuperate for the past few days, and when he heard the news that Si Li had fallen into the water, he immediately rushed over, and when he saw the county justice accompanying Si Li, he retreated outside the hospital and did not go in.
"Who are you?"
Someone patted Gu Liwu's shoulder, and Gu Liwu turned his head to look...... I don't know.
"You are?" Gu Liwu glanced at the courtyard and asked as quietly as he could.
Mu Jiufeng looked at Gu Liwu's line of sight, looked at Gu Liwu carefully, and grabbed Gu Liwu directly without saying a word.
Faced with the sudden situation, Gu Liwu instinctively avoided it, but Mu Jiufeng refused to let go, and the two scuffled together as soon as they went back and forth.
Because the Yusheng Courtyard is where Si Li lives, after all, it is not very convenient for the girl's house to have some guards in the courtyard, and the skills of the two sisters in the late spring and summer are really good, Ye Zhongyao authorized the Yusheng Courtyard to be guarded without guards, and because of this, no one found out about the two who were scuffling together at this time.
Gu Liwu didn't really do anything, he just tried his best to get out of it, but Mu Jiufeng was not a vegetarian, he was desperately pestering Gu Liwu, and both of them had colors on their faces.
"What are you doing?"
I don't know when, Ye Zhongyao and Jian Xia came out of the courtyard and were looking at the two who were scuffling together.
Mu Jiufeng grabbed Gu Liwu's collar fiercely, and under the several fights between the two, they were naturally disheveled, listening to Ye Zhongyao's voice, both of them were stunned, and Qi Qi let go.
Gu Liwu also pulled up his clothes in anger, Ye Zhongyao looked at the scar on Gu Liwu's back during the fight, his eyes changed slightly, he looked at the two people in front of him, and asked angrily:
"What are you guys doing here?!"
"Jun Gong, I don't know how he sneaked into Yugong Mansion, and he went to Sili's Yusheng Courtyard to peep!" Mu Jiu glared at Gu Liwu angrily.
"Who peeped, I saw the county prince and Ah Li talking, so I waited outside the hospital!" Gu Liwu felt that there was something wrong with this person, so he started as soon as he came up.
"Grandfather, is Ah Wei outside?" Sili went out of the house and saw the two people hanging with colors, and was a little puzzled:
"What's wrong with you?"
Ye Zhongyao saw Si Li come out and said, "It's just some misunderstanding, Xiao Li don't worry." ”
Ye Zhongyao turned his head to Gu Liwu and introduced:
"Don't worry, this is Mu Jiufeng, the eldest son of the Marquis of Ning'an, who grew up with Xiao Li since he was a child, and he can be regarded as Xiao Li's chief friend." After that, he said to Mu Jiufeng: "Jiufeng, this is my grandson Gu Liwu, and he is also Xiao Li's life-saving benefactor. ”
Mu Jiufeng looked at Gu Liwu again, he was newly accepted by the county prince...... Grandchild?
After all, it was a misunderstanding, and the child would not have paid attention to it, Si Li looked at the two people in front of him who seemed to know that they had made a mistake and lowered their heads and stopped talking, and the corners of their mouths slowly rose.
Many years later, Si Li stood in this Yusheng courtyard and walked by the pond full of lotus flowers, only to know that it turned out to be ...... Things are people, and they never have any false intentions.
The journey from Gu Mansion to Yugong Mansion was not far, but Ye Sili felt that it was extremely long.
It's as long as yesterday when she came in a sedan chair.
It's just that yesterday she sat in a sedan chair, beating gongs and drums, lively and noisy, and felt the loneliness alone.
At this time, she was sitting in the carriage she usually sat in, cold and cold, but her grandfather was silently accompanying her.
Gu Liwu left.
No explanation was left.
After leaving the Gu Mansion, Ye Sili never left the Yugong Mansion again.
She sat by the window all day long, rarely spoke, and occasionally went to Yulan Courtyard for a walk.
Quietly, quietly, she lost weight round and round.
When Xiao Ling finally waited for Ye Sili to be willing to meet the guest, Xiao Ling looked at her with shock and distress.
"Why torture yourself like this?" Xiao Ling held back her tears and walked gently to Ye Sili's side.
Ye Sili withdrew his gaze from the cinnabar osmanthus outside the window, squeezed out a shallow smile towards Xiao Ling, and said weakly:
"You're here."
Xiao Ling held Ye Sili's hand in his hand and said with concern:
"It's the height of summer, why are your hands so cold?"
Hearing this, Du Chun, who was adding tea on the side, said worriedly: "During this time, the county lord didn't think about tea and dinner, everyone has lost a lot of weight, and his body bones are naturally worse day by day." ”
Xiao Ling looked worried, looked at Ye Sili's listless appearance, and proposed:
"The lotus flowers in Mochizuki Lake in the west of the city are in full bloom, shall we go out for a walk today?"
Ye Sili said apologetically: "I don't want to leave the house today. ”
"But you like lotus flowers the most." Xiao Ling frowned, always feeling that Ye Sili staying in the house all day long was not conducive to her getting out of her emotional wounds.
Just as Xiao Ling racked his brains and prepared to persuade Ye Sili, Lian Xia appeared at the door of the house and said:
"County Lord, there are people outside asking to see you."
Ye Sili said "I don't see" to his mouth, and Xiao Ling interrupted.
Xiao Ling glanced at Ye Sili and asked excitedly, "Who, who, do I know?" ”
Jian Xia nodded, looked at Ye Sili, and smiled at the corner of her lips: "It's Qingluo who is back." ”
Hearing this, Ye Sili regained his spirit in his eyes, stood up in disbelief, and asked:
"Really?"
"Absolutely."
Jian Xia turned his head slightly to look at the courtyard, turned back to Ye Sili and said, "He is outside the door, would you like to see him?" ”
Ye Sili was skeptical, but his expression was involuntarily joyful.
"See, of course, you want to see."
She restrained her agitation and walked towards the door with her weak body.
Her steps were vain, and Twilight hurriedly reached out to help her.
Ye Sili never thought that seeing Qingluo again would be such a scene.
He stood in the courtyard, wearing a dark green narrow-sleeved tunic robe, which made the whole person calm and restrained.
Seeing Ye Sili come out, Qing Luo's expression was clearly surprised, Xu didn't expect that the woman who was as bright as the warm sun at the beginning would be able to look like this now.
Her face was bloodless, and her already fair skin was now a little creepy.
Her eyebrows and eyes were full of exhaustion, but at this time she had a little joy of reuniting with old people.
"Qingluo?" Ye Sili called tentatively and softly.
The person in front of him is standing in the sun, spirited and confident.
Qingluo arches her hands and bends over, with an elegant temperament:
"County Lord Ann."
Ye Sili stepped forward by the support of Duchun, still in a trance:
"Are you really back?"
Qingluo looked at Ye Sili who was approaching, looking at her current state, and didn't dare to imagine what suffering she had experienced.
The corners of his lips lifted and a smile appeared, "County Lord, I'm back." ”
Ye Sili looked at the smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily slowly rose, revealing a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
Originally, I thought that if Liangcheng was goodbye, it would be difficult to see each other for many years, but I didn't expect him to return to Kyoto.
Qingluo only looked at Ye Sili with a smile on her eyebrows.
When he heard about her wedding last month, he finally arranged the affairs of Liangcheng properly, and it happened that Emperor Zhou Yuan had something to ask him to return to Beijing, so he rushed back justifiably.
Who would have thought that it was still a step too late.
Since entering Beijing, he has heard too many rumors along the way.
It is really unpredictable, Gu Gongzi did so much for the county lord at the beginning, and finally asked for a marriage contract with a meritorious service, but abandoned the county lord on the wedding day.
Thinking like this, Qingluo silently hid her distress in her eyes.
Xiao Ling saw that Ye Sili's mood was improving, and took the opportunity to propose again:
"It just so happens that Qingluo is back, and the weather is good today, so how about we go to Mochizuki Lake to enjoy the flowers?"
Xiao Ling frantically gave Qing Luo a look, and Qing Luo understood it, and also proposed:
"I've heard a long time ago that the lotus flower in Mochizuki Lake is a must, and I haven't had a chance to see it yet, I wonder if the county lord is willing to take me to see it?"
