Chapter 10 Recognition
The next day, Jin Shu looked at the young lady sitting in front of the mirror, and her small face was full of confusion and depression.
Jin Shu flexibly combed Qiao Yuan's sideburns with both hands, and put a jade-white hairpin on the sideburns, a snow lotus flower on the hairpin quietly bloomed, and a lotus-like pendant, which made Qiao Yuan more elegant and dusty.
Rao is like this, Qiao Yuan's mood has not been taken away at all, and he is still sullen.
Seeing this, Jin Shu proposed: "Miss, today Yunjing Pavilion has invited a famous singer who has recently become popular to play your favorite script. ”
After Qiao Yuan heard this, the sadness on his face was instantly replaced by joy, "I must go to the party, Xiaoyu, go to Yunjing Pavilion and let the shopkeeper keep the private room I often go to for me." ”
Xiao Yu went out after agreeing, and in the front yard, she accidentally ran into Qi Wei, and Xiao Yu hurriedly apologized.
Qi Wei recognized that this was the newly acquired big girl in Qiao Yuan's yard, and was about to go out, so she stopped and asked, "Where are you going in such a hurry, don't you have long eyes when you walk?" ”
Xiaoyu knelt on the ground, and her tone was slightly panicked: "Madame sent me to Yunjing Pavilion to book a private room, this walk is just a little anxious, Miss don't blame." ”
Qi Wei thought for a while, then said, "Yunjing Pavilion? ”
The maid next to her introduced Qi Wei with a very good look.
"Yunjing Pavilion is the largest teahouse in Shangjing, and recently the new celebrity singer is singing there, I heard that it is difficult to find one."
"Then you book two private rooms, and if you want to be next to each other, you are not allowed to tell your wife, do you know?" Qi Wei said viciously.
Xiao Yu's body trembled slightly, Qi Wei was very satisfied with this, and turned to leave.
Xiao Yu got up and went to the side door, and when he got out of the Hou Mansion Gate, he came to a small stall, and the vendor was the neighbor's eldest brother who grew up with Xiao Yu.
Xiaoyu handed over a letter and a silver hairpin, "Brother Lao Fu Hong helped me deliver the letter to the Tanhualang Gu Mansion on West Street in the north of the city." ”
Qiao Yuan asked the housekeeper to prepare the carriage and went out with the brocade book with great interest.
When the carriage passed by the old shop of the Zhou family, Qiao Yuan instructed Jinshu to ask the store to send two servings of osmanthus crisp to the Yunjing Pavilion private room.
There was a long queue in front of the old shop of the Zhou family, and the fragrance of the osmanthus crisp hooked Qiao Yuan's stomach with greedy worms.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and Jin Shu opened the door, only to see Gu Zhong standing in front of the door with four oiled paper bags.
Qiao Yuan's face was stunned, and he didn't think that he would be at the door.
Gu Zhong bowed his hand to Qiao Yuan and bowed, and said loudly: "I just heard in the old shop of the Zhou family that Mrs. asked for two copies of osmanthus cake to Yunjing Pavilion, and I happened to be here, so I helped Mrs. come over a little by the way, and I hope that Mrs. will not blame Gu for being abrupt." ”
Qiao Yuan heard this, "There is a trip to Gongzi Gu, but the private rooms are all women's dependents, so it is inconvenient to invite Gongzi Gu in." ”
Jin Shu took the oiled paper bag and was about to close the door.
Hearing this, Gu Zhong said quickly: "Madam, do you remember when you fell into the water in Suzhou when you were five years old? ”
Qiao Yuan looked at him in surprise, this matter is rarely known in Shangjing except for his mother.
Isn't it that I am an old acquaintance with him in Suzhou?
She was trying to search for memories of Gu Chong, and if she was not mistaken, she should only have two or three sides of Gu Chong.
Qiao Yuan had that dream in his mind again, and said lightly: "Gu Gongzi recognized the wrong person." ”
Beauty is like a flower across the clouds
Gu Zhong looked at her detached expression in a daze: "Madam, do you really remember me?" ”
This tone, how can it be like a romantic debt has come to the door?
Qiao Yuan frowned lightly and glanced at Hongyu.
Hongyu understood and opened the door, ready to send Gu Zhong away.
Gu Zhong saw that she really forgot about it, and was about to take him away, he was a little sad, and hurriedly said: "Yuanyuan, I am Brother Gu, when you were still in Suzhou, I lived next door to your house." ”
Qiao Yuan looked at his face carefully, vaguely familiar, and then remembered.
His father was sent to Suzhou to be an official, and Qiao Yuan was also born at this time, and he didn't return to Beijing until he was six years old.
Next door to their house is the Gu Mansion, and Qiao Yuan remembers that the Gu Mansion has a little brother who will play with her.
When she was five years old, she sneaked out of the house for fun, accidentally fell into the lake, and was rescued by Gu Zhong.
When she first returned to Beijing, when Qiao Yuan knew that she couldn't play with him in the future, she cried for a long time, and Qiao's mother often teased her about it.
After not seeing her for so many years, her face was a little blurred, and now that the person was standing in front of her, Qiao Yuan slowly put her face on it.
It's really the neighbor's little brother who plays with her.
That Gu Chong's previous intimacy with her, intentionally or unintentionally, also made sense.
Reuniting with his childhood friend, Qiao Yuan was a little happy: "Brother Gu, it's really you." ”
Gu Zhong was also very happy to see her think about it.
A small wooden box was pulled out of his sleeve.
The wooden box was opened and pushed in front of Qiao Yuan, and there was a huge pearl lying inside, strung with a red rope of some years, and decorated with tassels underneath, which looked like an object for children to play with.
Qiao Yuan looked at the box suspiciously, and then looked at Gu Chong: "This is ......"
Gu Chong said with some regret: "This pearl was what you kept arguing with me before you left, and I didn't know that you were no longer in Suzhou until I put it on." I was very sorry when I was a child, and I have been thinking about it until now, if Ah Yuan doesn't dislike it, he will accept the friendship of his childhood. ”
Qiao Yuan looked at the pearl, hesitated for a moment, and motioned for the red jade to accept it and put it away.
"It's hard for you to remember the nonsense jokes of your childhood, which have been preserved to this day."
Qi Wei, who was in the private room next door, listened to this conversation completely.
When she first came up, she ran into Gu Chong, and she said that it was so coincidental, it turned out to be a private meeting with Qiao Yuan!
Qi Wei didn't even finish the drama, so she hurriedly went home with the maid.
She wants to tell her mother about this.
"It's just that I'm a wife now, and I still hope that Gu Gongzi will call me Mrs. as well, and if someone has a heart, it will ruin your reputation and mine, and it is inconvenient to entertain you today, so I will visit Mrs. Gu another day."
Hearing this, Gu Zhong wanted to speak again and again, and his face was lonely that could not be concealed.
"That being the case, it's Gu who is abrupt."
After Jin Shu watched Gu Zhong leave, he closed the door.
After the play ended, Qiao Yuan went home, and looked at the pearls in the wooden box in the carriage and became entangled.
The piles in the dream, how are they completely different from the current development, there has never been such a chance encounter in the dream as today, and I have never recognized Gu Zhong as my childhood friend in the dream.
Since that dream, Qiao Yuan has rarely gone to the places he likes to go on weekdays.
Even the banquets held between the families, as long as there is care, she has turned it off.
The chance encounter with Gu Zhong seemed to be behind something, and Qiao Yuan felt as if there was an answer to be called, and it disappeared just when she reached out to grab it.
Qiao Yuan couldn't think of an explanation, so he forgot about it.
Not long after, Qiao Yuan's carriage entered the mansion with the front foot, and a lightly dressed man on the back foot also entered the mansion, but he turned around and walked towards Qi Cun's study.
Qi Cun was approving official business, listening to the man's report, and when he mentioned that Gu Zhong was Qiao Yuan's childhood friend, the hand holding the pen was forced, and the pen rod was divided into two.
He pulled out a drawing from the side and gave it to the man, and explained a few words.
