Chapter 105: Reluctance
The banquets in the future were staggered, but the topics did not deviate from the Hou Mansion anymore, they were all talking about some small things in their respective families, and some men gathered together to talk about the affairs of the previous dynasty.
Gu Ruan Ruan was still a little awkward, Xiao Ruoyun coaxed him a few words in a low voice, but he didn't respond.
For the sake of the man's face, he didn't coax anymore, but Zuo Ningshuang was a little apologetic on his face, and kept apologizing to Xiao Ruoyun, saying that today's incident suddenly embarrassed him.
She spoke and acted frankly, without the slightest intention of concealing, "I really want to know Xiao Gongzi." It's just that I haven't had a chance, and I talked to my brother a few words, and I wanted to get acquainted in private......"
She paused for a moment, and then continued, "But my brother said that I haven't left the cabinet yet, and I have a bad reputation for getting acquainted with a foreign man in private, so I mentioned a few words to Your Majesty, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty would let Zhou Guifei hold today's family banquet." ”
"This matter started because of me, so that Xiao Gongzi and the concubine in the family were divided, it was my fault, if Xiao Gongzi is really embarrassed, I will go and tell my brother, let Your Majesty take back his life."
Xiao Ruoyun only thought that she didn't understand the majesty of this heavenly family, and hurriedly shook her head, "This can't be helped, what Your Majesty said is a word, how can you take it back." ”
Seeing Zuo Ningshuang's innocent appearance, he felt a little unbearable in his heart, sighed and said, "I know that your brothers and sisters are helpless in Kyoto, although they are the top of the new department and are in the limelight, they also have many difficulties. Your brother is careful every step in the court, so don't be angry with these little things. ”
Xiao Ruoyun glanced at Gu Ruanruan, who was still making trouble on the side, and sighed, "Why don't you do this." In a few days, I will go to your house and post it, and take you out for a game or two, even if it is in response to Your Majesty's wishes, how to talk about it in the future. ”
"Ruan Ruan, she just has a twisted temperament, not really angry, when the time comes, I will take her with me, and you will play together, maybe you will become good friends."
Zuo Ningshuang smiled shallowly, "Well, I also feel very close to my sister, when I just sat down before, my sister was very enthusiastic about me, which made me a little flattered." ”
Gu Baiyu had been listening to a few people talking on the side, and when he heard Zuo Ningshuang's words, he really couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.
Xiao Ruoyun raised her head: "Sister-in-law, what are you laughing at?" ”
Gu Baiyu smiled and shook his head: "No, it's nothing, I just think Miss Zuo Ningshuang is very interesting, if Miss Zuo Ningshuang doesn't dislike it, then I will also go to your mansion to post it, you often come to the Hou Mansion to play." ”
Isn't this Zuo Frost an interesting person?
Did she really not know anything?
I'm afraid that Gu Ruan Ruan's every move and all his reactions today are expected by Zuo Ningshuang.
And the sentence just now seems to say that the two fell in love, but in fact, they were sarcastic about Gu Ruan.
When she didn't know her purpose before, Gu Ruan Ruan pretended to be generous and pretended to be close to her, but now that she knows the ins and outs, she doesn't even want to give people a look.
What else do you say? I'm afraid it's just lip service.
It's okay if no one picks it out, but now that Zuo Ningshuang has made it clear, even Xiao Ruoyun himself feels embarrassed.
Gu Ruan Ruan naturally heard this, and his face showed anger, "What do you mean by this?" I thought you were a simple peasant girl, I didn't expect my mind to be so deep, what are you sowing discord here? ”
Zuo Ningshuang spread her hands innocently, "Aunt Gu, what do you mean by this?" I don't understand, I know that Aunt Gu suddenly knew about this today, and my brother and I were too abrupt, can't I make amends to Aunt Gu? ”
She acted frankly and openly, with a look of "I apologized to you, what else do you want", and all the anger in Gu Ruan Ruan's heart was raised.
What she wanted to say, Gu Baiyu said coolly, "Your Majesty is still here, what are you going to make trouble?" The other man's brother is also here, who are you trying to refute the face? ”
This is to remind Gu Ruan Ruan that the two brothers and sisters are now celebrities in front of the palace, let her weigh and weigh before speaking.
Gu Ruan Ruan still understands these truths,
But the more she understood the truth, the more she felt depressed and angry, and she simply became the clown of this banquet!
Recalling his affectionate attitude towards Zuo Ningshuang just now, he only felt disgusted in his heart, these people were all watching her jokes!
and Gu Baiyu......
She can be regarded as understanding, why Gu Baiyu had an indifferent expression at the beginning, I'm afraid she already knew everything!
Knowing that the goal of this brother and sister is not Xiao Yanlin but Xiao Ruoyun at all, this is waiting to see him play!
She sneered and said, "It's said that sisters are united, I think I'm afraid that Sister Zuo Ningshuang will be your sister in the future, what kind of thing is my sister." ”
Gu Baiyu was not used to her bad habits at all, and immediately spoke: "If I can, I would like to have such an interesting sister." ”
"Besides, you liked the second son of the Xiao family at the beginning, didn't I let it go to you? I give you a marriage, won't this great good thing also bring you? Nothing good has happened, why do you still complain about me? ”
Gu Ruan Ruan was laughed angrily: "It's a good thing, you are a good thing, Ming Media is marrying, the scenery is marrying, what about me?" Decree to marry as a concubine! I don't know how many people in Kyoto are still laughing at me! ”
Gu Baiyu glanced at her, and now there was already a bit of sharpness in her eyes, "I advise you to say a few words less, and keep talking, today's episode will become your second joke." ”
At this point, Xiao Yanlin on the side coughed lukewarmly, and Xiao Ruoyun immediately straightened his face, "Ruan Ruan, don't say it, the eldest brother is like a mother, don't fight again." ”
Gu Ruan Ruan gritted his teeth and looked indignant.
"I think you haven't forgotten my sister, if that's the case, why did you marry me in the first place!"
When Xiao Ruoyun heard this, his face turned completely cold.
The matter between him and Gu Baiyu has always been a knot in his heart, he has always been ashamed to speak, and now he was told by Gu Ruan Ruan in front of Zuo Ningshuang, an outsider, he only felt embarrassed.
He unconsciously turned his gaze to Zuo Ningshuang on the side, but saw that at some point, Zuo Ningshuang had lowered his head and seemed to be concentrating on studying the pastries on the table.
As if feeling his gaze, Zuo Ningshuang raised her head and said a little embarrassed: "Xiao Gongzi, I have been studying this pastry for a long time, I don't know what it is made of, how it is so delicious, I have never eaten it in the countryside before." ”
When Xiao Ruoyun heard this, his heart suddenly softened.
Although the pastries on that plate are exquisitely made, they are just ordinary jujube cakes, even ordinary people have eaten them, how can they never see them?
Zuo Ningshuang said this to tell him that he was studying this thing just now, and he didn't hear their conversation, nor did he hear his embarrassment and embarrassment.
Even in order to resolve his embarrassment, Zuo Ningshuang would rather pretend to be an ignorant country girl, licking her face to ask others what this pastry is.
She used the pain to resolve her embarrassment, which made Xiao Ruoyun feel more and more that this was a very cute woman.
He softened his voice, "It's just a jujube cake, the shape is more delicate, you can taste it, it's delicious." This is Zhou Guifei's favorite pastry, and it is also ......"
He paused in his tone, "It's also the eldest sister-in-law's favorite in the family." ”
Gu Baiyu smiled, winked at her and said, "The chef who makes this jujube paste cake still learns the craft from my cook, you can come to my house another day when you are free, and my correction is true." ”
Xiao Yanlin, who was on the side, also spoke, "Don't let Zhou Guifei hear what you say, she will snatch your cook later, you have no place to cry." ”
A few people resolved Xiao Ruoyun's embarrassment in a few words, and the atmosphere became warm.
Xiao Ruoyun was moved in her heart.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law still care about him.
They chatted slowly, although Zuo Ningshuang had never seen anything in the world, she spoke very interestingly, and she also fell in love with Gu Baiyu.
The two chatted, provoked Gu Baiyu covered his mouth and smiled, and from time to time he would bring in some topics that men could also join, and the four of them chatted very interestingly.
Only Gu Ruan Ruan was sulking alone on the side, and no one cared about her feelings at all.
This banquet was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, of course, except for Gu Ruanruan, everyone else was very happy.
When parting, Xiao Ruoyun felt a little reluctant for the first time.
Zuo Ningshuang made him feel very interesting, and she didn't have the arrogance of those girls in Kyoto, but revealed a simple loveliness.
He had never seen a woman like this before.
At the time of parting, there was still some reluctance, it was just a casual appointment, and the time was also set, and when Zuo Ningshuang and his brother left, Xiao Ruoyun turned his head and took a look.
Gu Baiyu on the side said, "Don't look at it." Looking at Aunt Gu again, she was even more angry, and you can see that she got into the carriage by herself. ”
Xiao Ruoyun smiled bitterly, "Sister-in-law, don't tease me anymore." ”
The two spoke much closer.
To be honest, from the time of getting married to the present, Xiao Ruoyun has always had a pimple in his heart, and today with this banquet, with Zuo Ningshuang in the bush, he feels that he is much closer to Gu Baiyu.
I also slowly faced up to my attitude.
He began to respect Gu Baiyu as a real eldest sister-in-law.
also discovered that Gu Baiyu actually really put down the matter between them, and only he was still standing in place.
He seems to have reconciled himself in his heart, and all this ......
Xiao Ruoyun turned her head again and glanced at the carriage where Zuo Ningshuang had left, this lovely woman also contributed a lot.
At this time, Gu Ruanruan, who had already gotten into the carriage, quietly opened the carriage lotus seeds, and saw Xiao Ruoyun reluctantly looking at Zuo Ningshuang, leaving the carriage, almost biting a mouthful of silver teeth.
Licorice didn't even dare to say anything on the side, and when she lowered the curtain, she said timidly, "Did something happen?" You don't look very happy. ”
A little maid like licorice is not qualified to follow up, so she has been waiting for her master's family to come back by the carriage today.
When Gu Ruan Ruan heard this, he snorted heavily and turned his head to look at the side of the carriage.
After a while, the curtain of the carriage moved again.
Xiao Ruoyun got into the carriage.
Seeing Gu Ruan Ruan like that, the happiness in his heart faded.
He didn't coax Ruan Ruan, just sat in silence on the carriage.
The atmosphere of the carriage was very solemn, and Gan Caoyuan could have stayed in the carriage to serve Gu Ruanruan, but when he saw this posture, he also confessed, got out of the carriage, and sat with the groom.
In the other carriage, Gu Baiyu's side was different, she recalled everything today with relish, and there was a smile on her lips.
