The snow fell in the middle of the night, and when I opened the door in the early morning, it was white as far as the eye could see, and people subconsciously squinted their eyes. The snow gradually decreased, Xu Shuhua stretched out his hand to catch a few fine snowflakes, and watched them slowly melt in the warm palm, a little distracted for a while.

The letter from October 12 said that he was about to leave for the capital, and now it was the nineteenth day of the lunar month, and the day should come, but Gu Yunji and they hadn't sent the news yet.

Could it be that she has just arrived in the capital and is resting and adjusting, and she hasn't had time to tell her yet?

Yes, the snow is so heavy, the roads are slippery, and it is not even convenient to send people to deliver messages, how can you expect people to rush over as soon as they arrive in the capital, isn't that difficult for a strong man? It seems that she is in too much of a hurry.

Xu Shuhua retracted his palm, and his eyes hid the loss in his eyes.

"Miss, miss?" The maidservant Qiu Xiao called a few times before pulling Xu Shuhua's mind back, "The master asked you to go to the front hall, saying that there were guests coming." ”

Xu Shuhua's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he subconsciously tightened his fingers: "What guest?" ”

Qiu Xiao shook his head: "I don't know, it's a few young sons, and the slave maid hasn't seen them." It stands to reason that you are still in the boudoir, and there is no housewife at home, so the lord should not let you see those male guests outside. Although these sons are quite handsome, they ......"

"Eh, miss, you wait for me-" Qiu Xiao didn't finish speaking, but he saw that Xu Shuhua couldn't wait to walk forward, so he hurriedly followed.

"Even if you kid has a little conscience, and you know that you are worried about me, an old man, it seems that you didn't hurt you in vain!"

In the front hall, after seeing the two boxes of dim sum sent by Gu Yunji, the smile on Xu Chengyu's face became even bigger, and after a brief acquaintance with Gu Yunxiao, he beckoned the three of them to sit down.

One is a disciple who was taught by himself, and he took the township test to solve the yuan; The other is a student who taught by himself and took the township test Yayuan. At the age of seventeen, they already have such achievements, and the future is even more limitless. Looking at Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan who were sitting opposite, Xu Chengyu stroked his beard, his eyes full of satisfaction.

Xu Chengyu looked at Gu Yunji and asked, "When did you arrive in the capital?" We should not only pay a visit to the house, but also not say a letter in advance, so that we can prepare. ”

Gu Yunji said: "I just arrived yesterday. You are my teacher, I am your disciple, we have been together in Luxi Academy for nearly three years, and we have a very close relationship, so there is no need to talk about these false courtesies. Don't say that you didn't prepare anything, even if you ask me to bring my own tea and dinner, it's okay. ”

"You're really getting more and more flamboyant now, I'm afraid Su Qi will have to bow down when he sees it!" Xu Chengyu was coaxed by him to be happy, but he still had to pretend to be disapproving, "It's been so long on the road, you can rest for a few days and come back, don't be in a hurry at this time." ”

Gu Yunji said with a smile: "Since the closure of Luxi Academy, it has been more than half a year since I was separated from my teacher, and my disciple is very worried in his heart, and he just hopes to meet you soon, let alone a few days, even if he can't wait for half a moment." ”

Xu Chengyu snorted from his nose: "Come on, I don't know you yet?" Who the hell do you want to see, I don't know? ”

Gu Yunji was slightly embarrassed, coughed lightly uncomfortably, and didn't answer again.

As he was chatting, the airflow in the hall was slightly stirred, bringing in a few wisps of cold air outside, Gu Yunji felt something, looked sideways towards the door, and just happened to crash into a pair of wet eyes.

Xu is running in a hurry, Xu Shuhua panted slightly, and the tip of his nose was red from the cold. As soon as she stepped into the room with the stove, the chill on her body melted instantly, her skin was moisturized as if it was about to burst into water, and her eyes were full of color and longing.

Xu Shuhua is wearing a pale pink plum satin jacket today, and there is a circle of edelweiss at the neckline of the fur made of thick velvet, which is piled up around her neck, making her face more delicate and white, bright and moving. As soon as Gu Yunji looked over, he couldn't take his eyes off.

The eyes of the two were scorching, their eyes were blended, and their thoughts and concerns for half a year were all in this short moment, and they were speechless to each other, but they seemed to say a thousand words.

Xu Chengyu and Cheng Yan both smiled at the corners of their mouths, and tacitly withdrew their gazes without disturbing the two. Gu Yunxiao was a little puzzled at first, but he was from the past, and he quickly understood something from the reactions of others, smiled meaningfully, lowered his head and drank tea by himself.

The personal maid Qiu Xiao is a stunned person, because she lives in the capital, she doesn't know the past of Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua, and she can't understand the ambiguous atmosphere between the two at the moment, she only feels that the man in front of her is extremely rude, and he actually stares at her young lady so presumptuously.

After being glared at by Qiu Xiao several times with her eyebrows crossed, Gu Yunji finally came back to her senses, hurriedly staggered her gaze with Xu Shuhua, and took a sip of the teacup in disguise.

When he raised his eyes again, he saw that Gu Yunxiao was constantly glaring at him, and he was about to write "Who is this girl" on his face. Gu Yunji remembered that he hadn't introduced the two to each other yet, so he stood up and introduced, "Big brother, this is Miss Xu, my teacher's daughter." ”

Then he turned to Xu Shuhua: "Miss Xu, this is my eldest brother Gu Yunxiao, and I came with us to participate in the examination this time." ”

It turned out to be Gu Yunji's eldest brother, no wonder he looked a little similar to him. Speaking of which, this was the first time Xu Shuhua had seen Gu Yunji's family, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and subconsciously recalled whether her behavior and dress were appropriate.

After settling down, Xu Shuhua gave a generous salute: "I've seen Master Gu." ”

Gu Yunxiao bowed gently: "Miss Xu is good." ”

They all sat down, and Gu Yunji, who was still talking and laughing freely, was inexplicably a little uncomfortable at the moment. Often when others speak, he listens and listens, and his eyes subconsciously drift to Xu Shuhua, and then he either wakes up by himself, or is glared at by Qiu Xiao, and hurriedly retracts his gaze.

Sometimes when they collided with Xu Shuhua's eyes, the two of them first paused, and then staggered their eyes in unison, and their faces were red to the base of their necks.

I haven't seen each other for more than half a year, although he and Xu Shuhua have been concerned about each other, but when they meet at first glance, they don't know how to get along, they don't say they are unfamiliar, they don't say they are familiar, they seem to be shy and ambiguous, in short, the atmosphere is very delicate.

After thinking for a while, Gu Yunji finally found a topic to break the embarrassment: "Teacher, what about Mr. Xu?" ”

Xu Shujing served in the household department, and Xu Chengyu and Xu Shuhua naturally lived with him when they returned to the capital. Although Gu Yunji was not curious about where he was going, the people who couldn't see him at the moment had to say a few words of greeting.

Xu Chengyu said: "He went on duty and came back in the evening, if you come half an hour early, maybe you can still see him." ”

"Oh, that's it, see you next time."

Gu Yunji didn't expect the topic to end so soon, and after answering a sentence, he didn't know what to say.

Cheng Yan reminded him understandingly: "Yunji, didn't you say that you prepared a gift for Miss Xu?" ”
