Chapter 22: People with beautiful mouths and sweet mouths know how to coax people
Even if you are tired, you have to continue this lesson.
After this day's lessons, Gu Chuyue was still in a hurry, full of embarrassment, but she was beautiful and sweet, and she knew how to observe words and feelings, and coaxed a group of gentlemen around, and became more and more patient with this clumsy beginner.
When it was time to get out of class, she sent her grandmother away, and she was going to go to Shouhui Hall to see her grandmother first, and then go to the Tibetan Jade Pavilion to contact her second sister Gu Fangfei under the pretext of returning the book.
It's just that as soon as she arrived at Shouhui Hall, she saw the maid lifting the curtain, and then she saw that it was Gu Fangfei who came out of the house and came straight to her, so she raised a sweet smile.
Gu Chuyue smiled and bent her eyes, and just as she wanted to speak, she heard an almost inaudible snort from the opposite side, and walked directly around her without allowing her to speak......
And so it goes......
The hand she had just stretched out stopped in mid-air with some embarrassment, so she had to flick her sleeve with a gesture, and she didn't stay where she was, and went into the house.
In the house, the old lady was sitting on the Huanghuali kang couch engraved with interesting stories about the temple fair and the lake.
On both sides of the kang couch, there are low huanghuali matching small cabinets, each with Chang'e running to the moon blue and white porcelain vase and blue glazed gourd vase, and in the middle is a small case table with lacquer painting.
On the desk is a few volumes of Buddhist books and a small incense burner, the fragrance is pleasant and calm, the three windows are half-open, accompanied by the breeze, occasionally there is a faint fragrance of flowers, the two incense collide, but unexpectedly a little more elegant.
The old lady was dressed in a daisy gold silk chrysanthemum gown, with an elegant and graceful pearl head, holding a thick Buddhist book in her hand, and leaning on the kang couch.
Hearing the maid's "Miss is here", she just smiled simply, and began to ask her about her homework in the past two days.
Before Gu Chuyue could figure out how to answer, she saw that the smell of the small incense burner beside Old Madam Gu was getting weaker and weaker, because of Mama Jin's strict discipline, she had already been promoted from the beginning of the incense burner.
So he immediately judged that the incense in the incense burner had already burned out, so he said, "Grandmother, the first moon will help you add the incense in the spices, right?" ”
The old lady put the Buddhist books on the small table on the kang couch and moved her out of the place, "All the utensils and spices are in the cabinet, it seems that Mama Jin's teaching results have begun to take shape." ”
Gu Chuyue stuck out her little tongue and smiled playfully, took out the utensils used for burning incense from the small cabinet of Huanghuali on the kang couch, and made a series of movements in an orderly manner, and then stood obediently in front of her grandmother, waiting to continue to check her homework.
Gu Chuyue didn't learn anything before, and she didn't know anything except good equestrian archery, and the old lady knew this.
But I didn't expect that after only two days of class, the learning progress of incense burning was so fast, and I was very pleased.
Seeing that Gu Chuyue didn't speak, she didn't know what she was thinking, and the dark circles under her eyes were almost the same color as the bottom of the pot, the old lady changed her words, "Chuyue's serious illness has not healed, and it is not suitable to study for a long time if you want to, going out for a walk is also helpful to the condition." ”
When Gu Chuyue heard this, she instantly came to her senses, and echoed without hesitation: "Yes, yes, what grandmother said is so right!" ”
"Chu Yue hasn't been to your Aunt An's grandmother for a long time, why don't I send someone to send a message today, and go over to visit tomorrow, it just so happens that Zhong Ting has come back from the barracks, Zhong Yi has also returned from a foreign country, you haven't seen each other for a long time, take this opportunity to talk more, especially Zhong Yi, who once followed the mission to Biansai, and knows a lot of strange things, don't you like to listen to those the most."
The more Gu Chuyue listened, the more she felt that her grandmother had no intention of taking her out?
"Grandmother, who are Zhong Ting and Zhong Yi?" She had heard Pearl introduce the situation in General An's mansion, but the two pearls didn't say it very clearly.
When these two juniors were mentioned, the old lady had a rare look of appreciation in her eyes, "Zhong Ting and Zhong Yi are the eldest and second sons of your Cousin An's family, and they have followed your Cousin An in the military camp since they were children. ”
"Cousin?"
The old lady nodded, "That's true, your cousin Zhongting has strong martial arts and is extraordinary, and now he is the deputy commander of the capital guards, how many women are trending around, it's just a marriage, your aunt and grandmother have been holding on tightly, and they haven't let go."
Your cousin Zhongyi has been in the army since he was a child, and he also followed the envoys to the border countries, he is cheerful and funny, and he is even more handsome. ”
Gu Chuyue smiled perfunctorily, she always felt that nothing good would happen in the past at this time......
On the side, Aunt Fang thought she was shy, and said with a smile: "Miss, those two young masters and old slaves have also met a few times, and they are definitely young and promising." ”
When Aunt Fang said this, she completely understood why her grandmother, who wanted her to study Baya well, suddenly proposed to go out for a walk, and it turned out that she was given a blind date under the guise of visiting her elders......
The old lady was in a good mood, and when she saw that Gu Chuyue had not spoken, she thought that she was shy because she understood the meaning of the words, and said, "Aunt Fang, you go to the embroidery lady to make new clothes for Chuyue, and use the freshwater rouge floating brocade in my cabinet to ...... again."
"Grandmother......" Gu Chuyue had the rare courage to interrupt Mrs. Gu's words, and pondered in her heart for a long time, "Grandmother, I have only learned Baya, I am a beginner, my foundation is shallow, and now I know a little bit about fur because Mr. and Grandma teach me well, and my reputation in the capital is not very good."
But Mr. and Mama are not people who keep it in their hearts for nothing, teach seriously, and do not look at people through layers of colored window paper, if I only study for a few days and go out from scratch to covet my own pleasure, wouldn't it make Mr. Mama misunderstand, and think that I don't really ask for teaching, wouldn't it be worth the loss? ”
The old lady felt that what she said was reasonable, so she said: "Chu Yue has really grown up a lot, your cousin Zhongyi has followed the mission around, and he will not leave again when he comes back this time, there is time." ”
Gu Chuyue, "............"
She couldn't refuse, but she could delay it for a day, so she had to say: "It's all up to grandmother's arrangement." ”
"When you return from leaving the country, your cousin Zhongyi is expected to visit the academy in a few days, and you can meet first."
Gu Chuyue laughed a few times, feeling that this was simply torture for her.
"Grandmother, Mr. Kong left his homework for copying books today, and he must hurry back to write in the early month, otherwise he will have to write until the third watch in the middle of the night."
She moved out of Mr. Kong and slipped away.
Out of Shouhui Hall, Gu Chuyue went back to Mingyue Garden and took out the collector's version of "The History of the Relocation of the Capital" and prepared to go to the Jade Pavilion.
"Is Miss going to the Jade Pavilion today?" Pearl asked.
Gu Chuyue flipped through the book in her hand and said casually: "I'm going, the book hasn't been returned yet." ”
While they were still on the way, the Hidden Jade Pavilion heard the wind.
Chang's mother, who was the leader, took someone out to greet her, gave a salute first, and said respectfully: "Miss is well." ”
Mother Chang is also very dignified among the maids and daughters-in-law in the Bachelor's Mansion, except for Aunt Fang next to Mrs. Gu of Shouhuitang, who is Mother Chang, she can be regarded as the first person around the Wang family.
"Mother Chang is polite." Gu Chuyue said lightly.
"Madame is arranging flowers in the back, can the old slave take Miss over?" Chang's mother lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes.
"No, Mother Chang, today I am mainly here to return the second sister's book, I don't know if the second sister can be in the Jade Pavilion?"
