"Shhhh Whisper. Cheng Yan looked in the direction of the main hall and made a silent gesture to Xu Dong, "Don't go in yet, so as not to disturb them." ”

Xu Dong didn't know why: "Who bother you?" Young Master? But I still have to go back to my life, why don't you let me in? ”

Cheng Yan reached out and gently tapped Xu Dong's head: "What do you think?" Yun Ji asked you to see if Mr. Xu came back, just after you watched it, are you really ready to go back to life? ”

Xu Dong asked rhetorically: "Otherwise?" ”

Looking at Xu Dong's sincere face, Cheng Yan sighed helplessly and scolded with a smile: "Elm head." Do you think your young master really asked you to go to see Mr. Xu and didn't come back? He's just making an excuse to spend you, and since you're out, stay outside, and don't go in unless he calls you out. ”

"Really? Why don't I think the young master has this meaning? Xu Dong will be skeptical, "Even if what you said is true, why did the young master spend me?" Now in the main hall, except for the young master, there is only Miss Xu, and the two of them are not familiar with each other, isn't it embarrassing to sit together alone? ”

“……”

Cheng Yan was choked for a while, and he couldn't think of how to respond to him. Could it be said that the two of them are mixing oil in honey right now, and it will embarrass them when he goes in? Xu Dong didn't know the past between Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua, so it was not easy to explain it at this time.

Cheng Yan was silently at a loss for a long time and didn't come up with a suitable answer, so he simply fooled him directly: "Anyway, no matter what, don't go in now, just listen to me." ”

Xu Dong felt strange in his heart, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he had to agree.

Hearing the noise outside, Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua, who were talking in the house, instantly tightened their nerves, subconsciously took two steps back and distanced themselves from each other, listened to a few breaths, and only after making sure that no one came in, did they relax again.

Being interrupted like this, the anger in Xu Shuhua's heart had already dissipated, replaced by a thick apology and guilt, she looked at the scar on Gu Yunji's wrist that was strangled by the rope in distress, and asked cautiously, "Does it still hurt?" ”

Looking at Xu Shuhua's worried and nervous look, Gu Yunji's heart softened, put down the sleeves he rolled up to cover the scars, and said in a muffled voice: "It doesn't hurt, it's not a big deal." ”

Glimpsing Gu Yunji's actions to cover up his scars, Xu Shuhua thought that he was still angry that he had misunderstood him, and a look of loss suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he bit his lip and fell silent.

Gu Yunji's face was tense, and he was speechless.

After a long time, he heard Xu Shuhua's soft voice: "...... I'm wrong about you, I'm sorry. ”

Xu Shuhua inhaled gently, his voice became more and more gentle, and the warmth like water flowed gently and softly into Gu Yunji's heart, soothing his anger little by little: "I shouldn't not believe you, I shouldn't misunderstand you, I shouldn't be angry with you indiscriminately, I shouldn't deliberately say things like that to make you angry, and cause you to suffer such grievances." ”

Xu Shuhua's voice softened, and his tone actually carried a hint of pleading: "It's all my fault, forgive me, okay?" ”

Gu Yunji's heart trembled, and the sour astringency surged up to his throat, and he couldn't speak for a while.

"No ......"

"No?" Xu Shuhua's breath was suffocated, and his eyes showed gray.

"No...... Don't say that. Gu Yunji hoarsely snarled, trying to stabilize his trembling breath, "...... I also have something wrong, Qian Xun's matter, you are actually more embarrassed and embarrassed than any of us, I patronize myself and sulk, ignoring your feelings, I'm sorry. ”

"And yesterday...... If you don't know the truth, it's easy to think too much, and if I had explained it to you earlier, you wouldn't have misunderstood me. ”

Xu Shuhua's eyes were misty, he endured the astringency in his eyes, and said like a child: "I apologize to you, and you apologize to me, so let's forgive each other like this, don't be angry, okay?" ”

Gu Yunji's mood couldn't be changed for a while, and at this time, listening to Xu Shuhua's doting tone, he reacted to his gaffe after realizing it, and immediately felt even more uncomfortable, turned his head away like a disguise, and responded sullenly: "Okay." ”

Seeing Gu Yunji's aggrieved appearance after being angry, Xu Shuhua felt a little funny while being sad. Suddenly, her heart moved, she remembered something, so she smiled lightly: "Speaking of which, I haven't congratulated Gu Gongzi on his high school reunion." ”

Gu Yunji's heart was shocked, and the astringency that had just been suppressed surged up uncontrollably, and under the trembling of his heart, the last bit of tangled in his chest was finally completely smoothed.

first bumped into the Qian family and asked for marriage, and then watched Qian Song confess to Xu Shuhua in court, and finally had the opportunity to speak alone, but they quarreled when they opened their mouths. Gu Yunji's mental journey in the past half day was full of ups and downs, and his emotions were stirred up and chaotic, and only then did he recall his original purpose - he had come to share the joy with Xu Shuhua.

After going around in a big circle, after being late for a whole day, Gu Yunji finally heard the words he wanted to hear the most from Xu Shuhua's mouth, and he couldn't help himself for a while, and the whole person trembled slightly.

This is not only a congratulation, but also represents the tacit agreement between the two - when I win the gold list, I will marry you.

After more than two years, from Huating County all the way to the capital, Gu Yunji has completed the ninety-nine steps of the imperial examination road, and he is only missing the last step - the palace examination, he can be awarded the official status and fulfill his promise.

The palace examination was not eliminated, but the tributes admitted in the examination were re-ranked, Gu Yunji achieved such a high ranking in the examination, although he has not yet participated in the palace examination, he is actually equivalent to half a jinshi. In other words, the conditions for him to fulfill his promise have been basically met.

Xu Shuhua naturally understood this, and suddenly couldn't help but be infected by Gu Yunji's emotions, and his eyes moistened.

The two of them looked at each other silently, and they both read the joy and excitement in each other's eyes, and although they did not speak, they were already in harmony.

Just when the two looked at each other without saying a word, a faint quarrel suddenly came from outside the house.

Qiu Xiao held a pot of tea and glared angrily at Xu Dong who was blocking in front of him: "Why don't you let me in?" Get out of the way! ”

Xu Dong was unmoved, and said with a stiff neck: "Anyway, it's not good!" Cheng Gongzi said that going in now will disturb them, I can't even enter, and of course you can't enter either! ”

Qiu Xiao said angrily: "What can't you do with me?" I am my lady's personal maidservant, so I naturally act according to my lady's orders, and when the lady asks me to make tea, I should bring the tea in. If you are willing to listen to Cheng Gongzi, you can listen, don't come to me! ”

Looking at these two stunned people who couldn't understand the eyes of their masters, Cheng Yan stroked his forehead helplessly, not knowing what to say.

Seeing that he couldn't be reasonable, Qiu Xiao was about to forcibly break in, but he was stopped by Xu Dong, and was about to get angry, when he caught a glimpse of Xu Shuhua's figure, and suddenly his face was happy: "Miss!" ”

"Hmm." Xu Shuhua responded lightly, his eyes swept over the two arguing, "What's the matter?" ”

Qiu Xiao had someone to support him at this time, and he immediately couldn't wait to complain: "Miss, you asked me to make tea, I made tea, but he didn't let me in!" ”

Not to be outdone, Xu Dong hurriedly asked Gu Yunji for support: "It's not that I won't let her in, it's Cheng Gongzi who said that I should not go in first, otherwise it will disturb you." I can't even get in, so naturally she can't go in. ”

Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua's faces froze when they heard this, and they were silent in unison.

Xu Dong didn't notice the embarrassment of the two at all, and fortunately asked Cheng Yan for approval: "Cheng Gongzi, did you say it?" ”

Cheng Yan looked up at the sky, pretending not to hear anything, and said I don't know.

Gu Yunji took a deep breath, but he maintained the calmness on his face, and quietly changed the topic: "Hasn't the teacher come back yet?" ”

Xu Dong patted his head: "Oh, I forgot to tell you the young master, Mr. Xu said that he was tired, and after sending off the money, they went back to the room to rest, so that you can leave directly when you have enough, and you don't have to say goodbye to him." ”

Hearing the word "stay enough", Gu Yunji's cheeks were hot, and after coughing a few times in disguise, he turned around and bowed his head slightly to Xu Shuhua: "Miss Xu, then let's go back and come back to visit another day." ”

At this time, listening to the pretended polite title of "Miss Xu", Xu Shuhua's ears turned red imperceptibly, and he bowed his head in return: "Okay, Gu Gongzi and Cheng Gongzi go slowly." ”

Looking at the back of Gu Yunji and the others leaving, Qiu Xiao always felt that something was strange, and asked, "Miss, what does Cheng Gongzi mean when he said, 'Don't disturb you'?" ”

Xu Shuhua was silent for a moment, and suddenly said without a head or a tail: "Qiu Xiao, where is the tea made?" ”

Qiu Xiao raised the teapot in his hand: "What about Miss, do you want to drink it now?" ”

Xu Shuhua smiled slightly, but his tone was cold: "I don't drink it, you can drink it yourself." If you finish drinking, you can drink another pot, drink a few more pots, this tea has the effect of clearing the heart and eyes, and it is good for your eyes. ”

With that, she walked away, leaving Qiu Xiao confused in place.
