When he arrived at Guixiangzhai, Zhou Ruijing got out of the carriage and brought a bag of things up after a while, and then ordered the carriage to go back to Zhou's house.

Gu Wanyin was a little surprised, "What did the prince buy?" ”

Zhou Ruijing opened it with a smile: "I just saw you eat a few sour plums at the Gu family, I thought there should be some here, come and buy some." You won't have nothing to eat when you want to. "In the oily paper bag, there are all kinds of dried fruit preserves, and if you look closely, the taste is also sour.

Gu Wanyin picked one up and put it in her mouth, but with the sweet and sour face on the tip of her tongue, she smiled and glanced at Zhou Ruijing between her eyes, and shook her head with a smile: "You are careful." "Knowing that she likes to be sour lately, just thinking that he is a dignified son, the minister of the court, and actually went to buy snacks for these women, I feel a little crying and laughing.

Let others recognize his identity, and I don't know what to think?

"Even if you don't have it at home, you can send the girl out to buy it, why should you go in person?" After thinking about it, she couldn't help but remind: "There are people coming and going here, it's hard to guarantee that they don't recognize you, if they are seen, they may laugh at you if they spread it." "It's always embarrassing to be talked about. If the old lady knows, I'm afraid I won't like her even more.

Zhou Ruijing shook his head: "I bought mine, what do they have to do with it?" After a pause, he added: "My own wife hurts herself, what is it?" ”

"I can't say anything about you." Gu Wanyin laughed, reached out and picked up a sour plum and handed it to him, tilted her head and smiled: "This is delicious, can you taste it?" That demeanor was actually naïve, rare playful, very different from the gentle appearance of ordinary days, but against her shimmering starry eyes and rosy cheeks, it was beautiful and incomparable, and it was extremely seductive.

The corners of Zhou Ruijing's lips hooked, but she avoided her fingers, lowered her head and suddenly said, "I'll taste it." As he spoke, he was wrapped in his mellow breath and pressed down. Caught the petal of pink and attractive red on the mutton fat white jade-like face.

Gu Wanyin was startled, and hurriedly reached out to push him, but she dared to force or make a sound, and in an instant, her heart beat like a deer, and her cheeks burned even more. However, Zhou Ruijing just got a hint of sweetness, how can he be willing to let go? Instead, he got up harder and harder, gently gnawed and licked, and never let go.

……

When it is time to get off the bus; Gu Wanyin was already panting slightly, her cheeks were red, especially her cherry lips were even more red, as if she had been coated with a layer of crystal rouge. The look is also very unnatural.

Zhou Ruijing looked as usual. After jumping out of the carriage, he reached out to help Gu Wanyin. Gu Wanyin couldn't help but glare at him fiercely the moment she handed her hand to him, and Zhou Ruijing couldn't help but show a smile, although it was extremely light, it made the stern solemnity between her eyebrows dilute a lot. It's just that he doesn't have half a weak heart.

Because they went to Guixiangzhai halfway, Gu Yingyin and they naturally didn't follow all the way. As soon as I entered the gate, I saw Yinlu standing at the door, and it seemed that he had been standing for some time. Although he was wearing big wool clothes, he was still a little shrunken from the cold.

"What's going on? What are you doing standing here on such a cold day? Gu Wanyin was a little surprised, and asked. Now the old lady can't be separated from the silver heron, why is the silver heron standing here? Mo is not waiting for someone? Thinking like this, I couldn't help but move in my heart, and glanced sideways at Zhou Ruijing.

Yinlu really looked a little embarrassed, and after glancing at Gu Wanyin. Only then did he say in a low voice: "The princess, the prince." The old lady asked me to invite the prince to come over. Said it was there for dinner at night. While speaking, he glanced at Gu Wanyin's direction very uncomfortably.

"Got it." Zhou Ruijing is a little strange, if this is the case, just find a little girl to pass the word, why wait here? Glancing at the silver heron, he narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

Gu Wanyin's smile condensed slightly, but it didn't fade. Instead, it became a little weird, and it seemed to be laughing rather than laughing. Letting go of Zhou Ruijing's hand slightly, he lowered his head and whispered, "Since that's the case, then I'll go back first." As he spoke, he withdrew his hand from his palm.

Zhou Ruijing suddenly clenched her fingers and smiled softly: "Let's go and say hello to the old lady, and it's not too late to go back slowly after eating." The tone was light. But it is very persistent, with a sense of irresistibility.

Yinlu was stunned, frowned and hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Lord Shizi-"

It's just that before she finished speaking, she was glanced at by Zhou Ruijing's slightly chilling gaze, and the rest of the words were choked in her throat, and she couldn't say anything. It wasn't until Zhou Ruijing helped Gu Wanyin out of the road that he exhaled a breath, only to feel that his back was sweaty, Rao was like this, there was still a cold feeling on his back, and he was very uncomfortable.

Gu Wanyin glanced at Zhou Ruijing with some hesitation and said in a low voice; "Well, don't upset the old lady. She's old, and if she's sick, it's a big deal. "The meaning of Fang Cai Yinlu is clearly the meaning of as long as Zhou Ruijing passes alone. If she just went with her, I was afraid that the old lady would be unhappy. When the time comes, why bother?

She understood that Zhou Ruijing felt sorry for her, and she didn't want to let her lose face, let alone let her suffer a little grievance. But if she has an unpleasant quarrel with the old lady because of her, it is unfilial, and when the time comes, not to mention his reputation, it will make her even more embarrassing. Others will only say that it is her fault, so in her opinion, it is not necessary to be temporary, but to bury trouble.

Zhou Ruijing shook his head: "Look up and look down, the old lady is already unreasonable." If you follow it, it will only get worse. With his understanding of the old lady, if he keeps tolerating it, it will be bad. If he had been stronger, the old lady might not have been. The big deal is that the complexion is not good-looking, but what is the case, in front of the three bedrooms and two bedrooms, it will not be like this. After all, the old lady was born in a famous family, and she always pays attention to her demeanor.

Gu Wanyin looked at Zhou Ruijing and sighed lightly in her heart, but she didn't insist anymore. Perhaps, what Zhou Ruijing said was right. It's just that this meal must have no taste in your mouth and is difficult to swallow, but since you are following Zhou Ruijing, what is there to be afraid of?

Because Zhou Ruijing's gaze was too terrifying, Yinlu didn't dare to follow again, but only followed from a distance, always keeping a distance;

Walking all the way to the old lady's courtyard, Gu Wanyin actually felt a little strange. In the past, I came to the place where I came every day to ask for peace, but suddenly I didn't come for a while, and I didn't recognize it. took a deep breath, lowered his head and followed Zhou Ruijing in. The laughter in the original room suddenly froze, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

The second and third wives are all there, and the second and third masters are also there. The old lady sat on the right seat facing the door, and the moment she saw Gu Wanyin, her face suddenly became gloomy, and her smile also converged.

Originally, when she hadn't come in yet, Gu Wanyin was slightly uneasy, but when she really came in, she suddenly calmed down. Steadily followed Zhou Ruijing and stepped forward to greet the old lady, and said softly: "Old lady." ”

The old lady snorted lightly and only looked at Zhou Ruijing: "Jing'er is here, sit down." Just like Zhou Ruijing said, the old lady still can't do anything more excessive. In front of so many people, even if I feel annoyed, I just ignore it, and I don't do anything else.

As soon as Gu Wanyin sat down, the second wife smiled and said, "I haven't seen Wanyin for a long time." How are you doing lately? If you want me to say, although pregnancy is delicate, you should also move around more, so that it will not be easy to give birth when you give birth in the future. Don't be distracted. The second wife's words can be described as loving and gentle, full of caring posture of the elders.

Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, how could she not understand the meaning of the second wife's words? It's just ironic that she didn't come over to say hello to the old lady. ridiculed her for setting up a stand when she was pregnant, and deliberately did it for others to see. At that moment, she only smiled and replied softly: "Thank you second aunt for teaching experience." I will definitely do more activities in the future. "To put it mildly, it is to erase the matter, and there is no intention of taking it in the slightest. It is indeed a kindness to be only the second wife.

At this time, if she really went toe-to-toe with the second wife, wouldn't she be asking for hardship? Now that the old lady looks at her, she naturally won't help her like she did in the past, but maybe she gave the old lady a reason to embarrass her.

When it is time to forbear, it is indeed not reckless. Gu Wanyin also kept this in mind clearly.

The second wife didn't get the expected effect, and she felt a little regretful in her heart, but the smile on her face was a little brighter. Anyway, she did press Gu Wanyin today and pinched the soft persimmon fiercely. At that moment, the second lady glanced at the old lady and continued to smile: "Why is this year's charcoal not as good as in previous years?" What's going on? Have you been deceived and bought low-quality charcoal? ”

Gu Wanyin frowned slightly, knowing in her heart that the second wife was afraid that she would not let go easily. This time she is talking about this again, yes, she is still nominally in charge of the house now, and it is appropriate for the second wife to ask this. But—glancing at the third lady with a smile, she didn't intend to speak.

Sure enough, the third lady then opened her mouth, smiling brightly, but her eyes fell on the second wife's body but she was faintly chilling: "What does the second sister-in-law mean by this?" Is there a problem with the charcoal I bought? To put it mildly, the charcoal sent to the palace, could it be that the second sister-in-law is not good at using it? Then I really don't know where to find good carbon for my second sister-in-law to burn. To tell you the truth, this year's share of our master's share of carbon, which can be paid tribute to the silver frost charcoal in the palace, is not privately fired in previous years, so it can't be compared at all. ”

It's just that the third wife is hiding one thing - the silver frost charcoal is also divided into three, six, nine and so on. The best palaces are in short supply, and the Zhou family is only medium. However, it is undeniable that the carbon, even if it is only medium, is much better than that of private firing.

The third wife's words are equivalent to saying that the second wife has nothing to do.
