Chapter 44: Peach Blossom Creek
Zhou Gu drank two jars of wine at night, so much so that he slept until three o'clock in the morning the next day.
When he walked out of the room, he saw Su Rong sitting in the lobby downstairs, holding a pair of scissors and a piece of colored paper, cutting something, while Midnight was sitting on the side, looking at her curiously, with an expression of amazement in his eyes from time to time.
Zhou Gu leaned on the railing and looked down for a while, but neither of them noticed him, he turned back to the house and went straight to wash.
After a while, he walked out and saw that Su Rong had put down the scissors, and in the middle of the night he took the paper cutouts she had cut out, and was admiring again and again, "Miss Seven, you are so amazing, can you go to set up a stall for this craft?" I see that the lady who sells paper-cuts in the market is not as good as yours, and many people are queuing up in front of her stall to buy. β
"That's what I learned from her." Su Rong smiled, and when she heard the footsteps, she turned her head and smiled at Zhou Gu, "Zhou Gu, you are finally awake." β
Zhou Gu had cleaned up, nodded to Su Rong, and glanced at Midnight, "How did you find it?" β
"My subordinates are ready, so I found them, and you can't do without me, son." Midnight said immediately.
"Who said I couldn't live without you? You weren't there for a day yesterday, didn't you live well? Zhou Gu reached out to take the paper cut in his hand, "What is the cut?" Show me. β
"It's the picture of you and Miss Seven roasting chicken in Phoenix Mountain." Midnight regret, "It's a pity that I had a stomach trouble yesterday, I didn't eat Miss Seven's roast chicken, I heard the guards say, Miss Seven's roast chicken is fragrant, yesterday the whole Phoenix Mountain was the fragrance of roast chicken, they were hungry enough, their own roasted pheasants, unpalatable to death." β
Su Rong smiled.
Zhou Gu nodded when he heard this, and tasted yesterday's deliciousness, "It's very good." ", unceremoniously hit Midnight, "Even if you were there yesterday, you don't have your share." β
Midnight: "......"
The love that grew up together since childhood is as thin as paper.
Zhou Gu sat down and asked Su Rong, "Have you had breakfast?" β
"No, it's waiting for you."
Zhou Gu frowned, "What are you waiting for me to do?" Aren't you hungry? β
"Hungry, I didn't expect you to sleep so late." Su Rong said, beckoning to the young man, "Bring the food!" β
The young man answered and went immediately.
Zhou Gu muttered, "I drank the two jars of wine you brought back last night, and I didn't get up today, so I said that drinking was wrong." β
Su Rong guessed that this was also the reason, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I made up two pieces of dim sum, and I'm not so hungry." Now you're waking up just in time, and it's the same with lunch. β
Zhou Gu nodded.
The young man quickly brought the meal, and Zhou Gu was also hungry, so he picked up the chopsticks and stopped talking.
After eating, Su Rong asked, "Do you want to continue to go out to play?" Or go back to the city? β
"Play."
Su Rong blinked, "How many days do you plan to hang Jiang Sheng?" β
"I don't want to see him at all."
Su Rong was surprised, "Is this okay?" β
"Why not?" Zhou Gu was dismissive, "If you are dissatisfied with me, you have the ability to go to my grandfather!" β
Su Rong smiled, and he really relied on his identity to be fearless, "Okay, then I'll take you to play, when you want to go back, go back." β
Zhou Gu nodded.
Su Rong thought for a while, "Let's go to Peach Blossom Creek!" Today, there are students from Jiangning playing music. Although there are no peach blossoms falling, Peach Blossom Creek is also worth seeing, especially the fish in Peach Blossom Creek, which is fat and tender, I can grill fish for you to eat. β
Zhou Gu readily agreed, "Done." β
So, Su Rong took Zhou Gu to Peach Blossom Creek.
The scenery of Peach Blossom Creek is beautiful, the stream water is clear, when Su Rong and Zhou Gu arrived, there were many people gathered in Peach Blossom Creek, there were men and women, many people were playing with the song and the water flowed, and there were also many people who were watching and applauding, which was very lively.
Zhou Gu was not very interested in games such as Qu Shui Liuqing, after all, such elegant games were more popular in Beijing, he looked at Su Rong for a while, then approached her and said, "People play such elegant things here, isn't it good for you to catch fish and grill it to eat?" β
Su Rong nodded, "Anyway, we just finished lunch, and we are not in a hurry to grill the fish to eat, when they disperse, let's catch the fish to roast again, and it won't be in the way of their eyes." β
Zhou Gu thought that she was quite planned, and nodded.
The two of them didn't make any noise when they came, and after watching from the side for a while, someone finally found Su Rong, "Miss Su Qi?" β
This person was a young man, elegant and delicate, his eyes lit up, and after he shouted, many people immediately looked at Su Rong. For a while, the place where Su Rong and Zhou Gu were suddenly became the focus of the crowd, but the most focused was Zhou Gu beside Su Rong, some people were amazed, some people were puzzled, and some people were stunned.
Zhou Gu didn't expect Su Rong to be so concerned, and he was also watched by others, his expression paused, turned his head to Su Rong and lowered his voice and said, "What's the matter with you?" Wherever you go, why are you restless? β
Su Rong also turned his head to him and lowered his voice and said, "About a small half of the people here have fought with me. β
Zhou Gu was speechless.
The person who first shouted Su Rong's name was called Jiang Xing, a side branch of Jiang Sheng's family in Jiangzhou, he was once chased by a vicious dog, Su Rong saved him, and since then he has a very good impression of Su Rong, he got up and walked towards Su Rong, with a look of surprise, "Miss Seven, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you want to play together?" β
"I don't play, you guys play, I'll just see." Su Rong shook his head and smiled at this person, "It's rare for the academy to have a holiday, you have a good time." β
Jiang Xing nodded, as if he had just discovered Zhou Gu, "This brother is ......"
"My fiancΓ©, Zhou Gu."
Jiang Xing was taken aback, his face changed slightly, and he blurted out: "In the past two days, it has been rumored that you have a fiancΓ©, yes, yes...... It turned out to be, is it true? β
"Well, it's true." Su Rong nodded.
Jiang Xing took a step back, as if he was shocked to realize that he was rude, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Zhou Gu, "It's rude, Brother Zhou, don't blame it." β
Zhou Gu glanced at Jiang Xing, and then glanced at a lot of shocked eyes, thinking that it seemed that he, his fiancΓ©e, was very memorable.
He shook his head with his hands, "Brother Jiang is polite." β
He turned his head to Su Rong and said, "Let's go, go go around elsewhere, don't disturb people's fun." β
The implication is that you look at you, brought me here to show off, and scared away your peach blossoms.
Although Su Rong felt that this was not quite right, she didn't have the right meaning, she waved her hand to Jiang Xing, "You guys play, we won't bother." β
After the two left, there was silence for a while.
Jiang Xing stood in place, didn't move for a long time, someone came over and patted him on the shoulder, and sighed, "Zhou Gu, the little prince of the Protector's Mansion, it's not like we can compare, Brother Jiang, take your mind away!" β
Someone also came over and said: "I just said that Su Rong, this woman can't be messed with, you have to listen, if she doesn't have a marriage contract, it's fine, maybe with your family background, there will be a chance, but who knows, people have a fiancΓ© who has been engaged since childhood, or the youngest son of the Protectorate's Mansion, isn't this a dry stare?" β
"Who is the Protector's Mansion? How could he order Su Rong for Zhou Xiaogongzi? It's amazing. One of them also came over and said, "Could it be a concubine?" β
Jiang Xing glared at this person angrily, "Haven't you heard? It's a fiancΓ©. How can a marriage contract made since childhood be a concubine? Do I need a marriage contract to be a concubine? β
"Also, it's me who wants to be crooked." This person hurriedly made amends, "Brother Jiang, don't worry. β
Jiang Xing has always been gentle and elegant, and rarely turns his face with others, since this person has lost money, he will not say it again, but said: "Let's continue to play!" β
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison. But everyone knows in their hearts that Jiang Xing likes Su Rong, as we all know, if it weren't for Jiangzhou Thorn Shi and his wife who had a holiday with Taishou Mansion because of Jiang Yunying's marriage contract being withdrawn, Jiang Xing would have let people go to Su Taishou's door to propose marriage.
It's good now, after a long time, Su Rong already has a marriage contract.
