Chapter 82: The Mind (2nd Watch)
Su Taishou likes Xie Lin very much, and thinks that he and Zhou Gu are both good children, at least a few of his unmarried daughters of Yunying are sitting there, he doesn't stare at any of them, at most he glances at everyone at the beginning, it can be seen that he is not a lustful person, after all, his daughters, all of them are like flowers and jade, although the most outstanding appearance is Su Rong, but the other daughters are not too bad.
Although Xie Lin doesn't drink much, his eyes are always clear, which is very commendable.
I don't know why he and Zhou Gu fought so much to grab a woman, and they were so sensational.
Su Taishou adhered to the heart of loving young talents, and said to Xie Lin after dinner, "Why don't you live in the mansion with a virtuous nephew?" Don't go back to the inn. Although the place in our house is not big, if you squeeze it, there is still a place for you to live. β
The eldest lady also likes Xie Lin, "That's it, let's stay!" We still have a place for you to live in our house. β
Xie Lin didn't want to leave when he heard this, but was it appropriate to stay like this? He looked at Zhou Gu, "Shall I stay?" β
Zhou Gu felt that after Xie Lin came, he was about to fall out of favor in front of Su Taishou and the eldest lady, "You can live if you want." β
Xie Lin made a decisive decision, "Then thank you uncle and aunt, I will stay unceremoniously." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly said: "You don't need to deliberately arrange a yard for me, I just live in a yard with Zhou Gu." β
The eldest lady laughed, "You don't have to be so crowded. β
Zhou Gu didn't have any opinions, "Okay, my aunt doesn't have to deliberately arrange it, just let him live in a courtyard with me." β
When the eldest lady heard this, she smiled and nodded, "That's okay." β
So, after the meal, Su Xing sent Xie Lin to the guest house where Zhou Gu lived, Xie Lin walked two steps, and didn't see Zhou Gu follow, so he couldn't help but ask Su Xingze, "Brother Su, why isn't Brother Zhou with us?" β
"He has something to say to my sister." Su Xing said, "I'll send Brother Xie to rest first." β
Xie Lin nodded, thinking to himself that Zhou Gu was so clingy? Do you want to talk to your fiancΓ©e after dinner at night? It's really an eye-opener again.
Zhou Gu was used to taking a walk after dinner with Su Rong, so he didn't feel anything.
Only then did Su Rong find an opportunity to ask Zhou Gu, "You and Xie Lin, have a good relationship?" β
Zhou Gu shook his head, "Who has a good relationship with him?" β
Su Rong was stunned, "You seem to have a good relationship, if this is not good, then what is a good relationship?" β
Zhou Gu opened his mouth, Xiao Jiujiu, who wanted to dig a pit for Xie Lin, naturally couldn't tell Su Rong, otherwise it would seem that he was very bad, he touched his nose and found a reason, "That, the relationship was not good before, we didn't like each other, and we didn't take it to play together, but now it's not because I robbed him that day and robbed Qin Luan that he liked?" It's also a good thing to spoil him, and I feel a little sorry for him. β
Su Rong suddenly said, "So that's the case, no wonder." β
Su Rong really believed it, after all, this reason was impeccable, Zhou Gu had already told her that he robbed people, he was entrusted by others, and regretted his death afterwards, and Xie Lin, if he couldn't rob him, he could only consider himself unlucky.
Since Zhou Gu regretted it and felt that he had done something wrong, it was not strange to compensate the victim.
Zhou Gu saw that she believed it, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly changed the topic, "That, I took Xie Lin to Zuihualou today, your face is quite big, and people even gave me face, I originally wanted to leave the silver when I left, but Yu Niang was not there, so I asked someone to pass me a message, saying that I just have to go." β
Su Rong blinked, smiled and nodded, deliberately misinterpreting his meaning, "Congratulations, Brother Zhou has finally learned to go there to have fun by himself." β
Zhou Gu blushed and glared at her, "What are you talking about?" β
He coughed and turned his face unnaturally, "I just thought that it wasn't a mess there, and I also took Xie Lin to have a long experience, after all, he hadn't been there either, by the way, I took his words to see why he came to Jiangning, but I didn't expect him to come to Jiangning for a while." β
He naturally didn't mention that Xie Lin was chasing after Duanhua and planned to see the excitement, and he didn't even want to mention Duanhua's name.
Su Rong nodded, "No one in Jiangning came before, but this year there are indeed many distinguished guests, one after another." β
Zhou Gu turned his head when he heard this, "In addition to Ning Chi and Xie Lin, which one else?" β
Su Rong wanted to say that there was still a prince, but when the words came to his lips, he smiled: "And you, this is not enough?" In short, I don't know, there should be some people who always feel that this year is more lively than in previous years, and there are more people coming and going every day. β
Zhou Gu said: "This is a good thing, your father's political achievements should always be known by more people, and it is time to move the place." I have been in contact with my uncle these days, and I feel that the imperial court needs a person like my uncle, he can make a big difference, and he has been nesting in Jiangning, but it's a pity. β
Su Rong smiled, "Yes." β
Anyway, she has grown up, and her father and Uncle Xie have protected her for so many years, which is enough.
The two of them walked for a while, and then sat in the pavilion of the water pavilion, Zhou Gu told Su Rong what he had been thinking about, "Those clothes you gave me today, I will let Zhou Xi calculate the price and return them to you." β
Su Rong reached out for the teacup, "What do you mean?" β
Zhou Gu looked at her, "It's too much, it's too valuable, I can't ask for it." β
Su Rong understood, and said seriously: "I said that it was given to you, and it was given to you, since it was sent, there is no reason for you to make it back to me." If you give me money, won't I be selling you? After all, Fairview has my shares. β
"I've never confiscated anything from someone else, let alone something so valuable." Zhou Gu said.
Su Rong smiled, "In this way, can the fiancΓ©e be someone else?" β
Zhou Gu choked, and wanted to say that his fiancΓ©e is indeed no one else, but our marriage contract is still just a marriage contract. But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say them.
Su Rong poured two cups of tea, pushed one to Zhou Gu, and said slowly: "Brother Zhou, don't be burdened, it's really nothing, I want to give it, you just take it." β
Zhou Gu opened his mouth, and wanted to say that you gave me such a valuable thing, what should I give you a gift, as Xie Lin said, his private money is far worse than the clothes she gave me.
Su Rong saw his expression and knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Gold and silver are valuable, clothes are also valuable, and hearts are priceless, aren't they?" β
Zhou Gu's heart jumped suddenly, the tips of his ears were a little red, and he didn't know whether to respond to the word "yes" for a while.
"Let's have tea!" Su Rong picked up the teacup by himself.
Zhou Gu also picked up the tea cup with his hand, only to feel that today's tea seemed to be hotter than before, he went to his mouth, put it down again, and suddenly said, "Then you have a lot of private money?" β
"Well, quite a bit."
Zhou Gu looked at her and wondered, "Since you obviously have a lot of private money, why do you still pick your eldest brother's fifty taels of silver behind your back, how can you bear it?" β
Su Rong: "......"
She coughed, "He's my big brother!" β
Zhou Gu was puzzled, "What's wrong with the eldest brother?" β
Su Rong was straightforward, "What does the eldest brother do?" was born to be exploited by her sister, otherwise her sister will not be exploited, and she will be exploited by other women in the future. β
Zhou Gu: "......"
This does make a lot of sense. As his eldest brother, Su Xing was also very unlucky.
He was speechless for a moment, looked around, no one approached this water pavilion, and he asked, "Then have you given Brother Su anything good?" β
"Fried chestnuts in sugar, roast goose, roast duck, grilled fish, I will send them all." Su Rong crossed his fingers and counted a large amount of food.
Zhou Gu: "......"
He stressed, "I say precious. β
"Isn't the fish I caught with my own hands and the grilled fish grilled by my own hands not precious?" Su Rong looked at him, "The others were also brought back to the house by my own hands, aren't they precious?" β
Zhou Gu naturally couldn't say anything invaluable, and he was speechless for a while.
Su Rong Dale, "I understand what you mean, no." β
Zhou Gu didn't know whether to be happy for himself or aggrieved for Su Xing, but his mood at this time was extremely complicated.
The two of them drank tea for a while and went back to their respective courtyards.
Zhou Gu returned to the guest house, Xie Lin didn't sleep, he was sitting in the painting hall drinking tea and waiting for him, when he saw Zhou Gu coming back, he asked him, "Why did you come back so late?" β
Zhou Gu glanced at him, sat down, poured a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "I went for a walk with my fiancΓ©e." β
Xie Lin: "......"
On a big night, take a walk for an hour? What's going on with the Su family? They haven't gotten married yet, so why don't they pay attention to men and women? So relieved to let the two of them stay together at night? He thought that Su Xingze had something to say in his mouth, and it was just the kung fu of tea, who knew that it would take an hour to wait.
He was shocked, "Does the Su family care?" β
Zhou Gu drank tea for a moment, "What's the matter?" We just walked along the water pavilion in the house, there are people everywhere in the house, even if it is a big night, there are lights everywhere, there is no dark place, what's wrong with staying together? β
They didn't do anything inappropriate for children, Su Rong asked him to hug him that day, but he didn't dare to hug it.
See you tomorrow~
