Chapter 179: Quarrel
Seeing that the father and son of the Qian family were walking like the wind, and they didn't even have time to say hello, Xu Chengyu shook his head helplessly, and was about to give up, but suddenly recalled that the Nacai gift they brought was still in the mansion.
Although Qian Song later said that this was a gift to celebrate Qian Xunzhong, his remedial words that were obviously whitewashing the scene, Xu Chengyu naturally would not believe it. Since he rejected the other person's proposal, he should return the Nacai gift, and he can't accept it directly no matter what.
"Lord Qian, your courtesy...... Hey, forget it, I'll send it myself. Xu Chengyu wanted to stop the Qian family father and son, but when he looked up, he found that they were gone, so he had to ask the little maid to carry Nacaili and go out to chase people.
As soon as Xu Chengyu and the Qian family's father and son left, the hall became quiet.
Since the moment he knew that the father and son of the Qian family had come to ask for marriage, Gu Yunji's face had not been very good, especially when he heard Qian Xun ask Xu Shuhua if he was willing to marry him, the air around him instantly dropped to freezing, Cheng Yan was several meters away from him, and they seemed to be able to feel the cold air bubbling out of his body.
Cheng Yan was worried from beginning to end, for fear that Gu Yunji would not be able to hold back Qian Xun on the spot, but fortunately, he could still restrain himself, except for constantly drinking tea to reduce the fire, and even starting to chew tea after drinking an empty pot of tea, there was no other radical action.
At this moment, although the Qian family's father and son had left, Cheng Yan felt that the hall had suddenly changed to another subtle atmosphere, which was even more infiltrating than just now, and he couldn't sit still anymore, and laughed dryly: "...... What, I drank a little too much tea just now, I'll go out for a walk, you guys sit first. ”
As he spoke, he slowly but firmly pulled out the sleeves of his shirt that had been crumpled by him from Gu Yunji's hand, and almost ran out of the door as if he was running away.
After Cheng Yan left, the hall became even more deserted, and after sitting silently for a long time, two voices suddenly sounded at the same time:
"Xudong, go see if the teacher has come back." "Qiu Xiao, let's go make a new pot of tea."
As soon as the words came out, Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua were stunned, subconsciously glanced at each other, and quickly turned their heads to stagger their gaze.
Xu Dong and Qiu Xiao suddenly seemed to feel something, and they looked at their own masters in unison, and then looked at each other's masters, and then withdrew their gazes, glared at each other not to be outdone, and then left separately.
Now except for Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua, everyone is gone, but neither of them has spoken, and they have been sitting silently, allowing embarrassment to spread in the air.
After a long time, Gu Yunji couldn't bear the abrasive silence after all, and took the initiative to break the silence: "...... I never thought that you had such a deep relationship with Qian Xun, and I never heard you mention it before? ”
What do you mean by "such a deep origin"? Can it be said that just because we knew it early, it can be called deep?
Listening to Gu Yunji's questioning tone, Xu Shuhua's heart swelled with a sullen breath, and his voice was cold and indifferent: "At that time, he and I were both young, and we only saw that side, and now it has been ten years, who can remember?" ”
Sensing the displeasure in Xu Shuhua's voice, Gu Yunji glanced at her unexpectedly, and said in a good voice: "I just asked casually, I don't mean anything else, don't think about it." ”
"I don't want to think about it? Who's thinking more? Xu Shuhua heard this, but his heart became even more angry, and he couldn't help but increase his tone, "Before I met you, I experienced a lot of things and met many people, do I have to tell you one by one?" Gu Gongzi? ”
She knew that he felt uncomfortable when he saw the Qian family begging for kissing, but did she feel uncomfortable? If Qian Xun hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, she wouldn't have any impression of the other party at all, and being courted by such an almost complete stranger in front of her, she couldn't wait to lose her five senses immediately, as if she could escape from the extreme shame and embarrassment without listening or looking.
Yesterday was the case of catching a son-in-law under the list, and today it happened again, now she and Gu Yunji finally have a chance to talk, he didn't appease her emotions first, didn't explain yesterday's events, he actually mentioned Qian Xun as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he was blaming her for hiding something from him, it was strange that her tone was good.
Although the two are already very familiar, they still call each other "Gu Gongzi" and "Miss Xu" on weekdays, which is a polite act according to their identity, but at this moment, Xu Shuhua said it in such a cold tone, but the distance between the two was widened from the sense of hearing, and Gu Yunji frowned: "What's wrong with you?" Angry? ”
Xu Shuhua looked up at him, his face was still calm, but his tone was sarcastic: "You are only allowed to be angry before, and I am not allowed to be angry?" ”
As soon as Gu Yunji came today, he bumped into the Qian family and asked for marriage, and he was already in a bad mood, and Xu Shuhua was angry with him when he opened his mouth, no matter how good his temper was, he couldn't help but be aroused by the fire in his chest at this moment.
Gu Yunji took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and asked, "Even if you want to be angry, you should tell me why, right?" Is it because of what I just asked? ”
She has been angry for a long time, and he still doesn't know why?
Xu Shuhua laughed angrily for a moment and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Yunji to speak, she seemed to understand something, deliberately lengthened her tone, and gritted her teeth and said, "Oh, I forgot." Gu Gongzi almost became the son-in-law of another family yesterday, presumably it was the fairy appearance of the young lady of that family, which made Gu Gongzi linger and forget to return, and he couldn't float back a single heart, right? ”
"What are you talking about!" Gu Yunji only understood where Xu Shuhua's anger came from at this time, and he was angry and aggrieved for a while, "I haven't seen the young lady of that family at all, so where do you want to linger?" ”
"Listen to what you mean, it's a bit of a pity?"
"You!"
In the past, Xu Shuhua was only gentle and generous, but she didn't know that she still had such an annoying ability. Gu Yunji couldn't argue in any way, so he simply rolled up his sleeves to reveal the scars on his wrists: "If you don't believe it, then look at this!" ”
Catching a glimpse of the obvious red mark on Gu Yunji's wrist, Xu Shuhua suddenly breathed sluggishly, and subconsciously took two steps closer to him: "This ...... How? ”
"Of course, this is what the son-in-law played yesterday!" Thinking that he had been misunderstood for so long, Gu Yunji became more and more aggrieved, "I walked to the road yesterday in a dignified manner, and I was suddenly kidnapped by a group of people, and I didn't have time to react at all." I kept trying to escape, but they tied me to a chair with my backhand and blindfolded me, and I couldn't break free......"
At this moment, seeing Gu Yunji wronged himself like a child, Xu Shuhua grabbed his heart tightly, and the whole person was so panicked that he was speechless: "I'm sorry...... I thought, you, you're ......"
"What do you think I am? Is it half-pushed? Gu Yunji's eyes were red, and his throat was sour, "You think I was willing to follow that rich gentleman yesterday, that's why I'm so angry, right?" ”
Xu Shuhua lowered his head guiltily by what he said: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." ”
"Young master, Mr. Xu said...... Not! Who is it! ”
Outside the house, Xu Dong was about to go back to Gu Yunji, but he was suddenly pulled to the side by a hand, and after seeing the person clearly, his eyes widened in surprise: "Cheng Gongzi? What do you do here? ”
