Cao Xun was interested: "I don't know which lady my mother has fallen into?" ”

Pan: "Wen Ying, the daughter of the Marquis of Changxing, you are familiar with both the father and son of the Marquis of Changxing, you should have heard of her?" ”

Cao Xun and Pan glanced at each other and said with a smile: "I have heard that she is a good girl, and she is also compatible with her second brother, and her mother has a good eye." ”

When Pan Shi heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief: "If it weren't for the fact that your marriage would go through the emperor, I would definitely look for you first." ”

She was really afraid that Cao Xun would also fall in love with Xie Wenying and rob her favorite daughter-in-law.

Chapter 12 "If you show up, I will ask the emperor to give you a marriage."

On the second day, Yunzhu wrote an invitation and sent the maid in the house to send it to the Gu Mansion.

Gu Min, who received the invitation, was very surprised, living in the capital together, she often heard about Yun Zhujiao's indulgent deeds from the mouths of the ladies, but she never really had anything to do with Yun Zhu, at most she met at the banquet of which house, nodded politely, and paid all the courtesies.

His mother Zhao smiled: "You must have given Li Shizi Hongqi, and Miss Li wanted to make friends with you." ”

The things on the polo field, ladies of Zhao status also knew about it, Li Yao only got three red silks, and the one given by Gu Min was very eye-catching.

was teased by his mother, Gu Min's face was slightly red, and he explained again: "I really just respect the old grandfather, Ning Guogong has already eaten the lesson of talking on paper, I can't bear Li Shizi to be a brave and reckless man, so I took this opportunity to mention him." What's more, as you know, Uncle Big and Small, Xie Shizi of the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion should discuss marriage, and whoever I send red silk is easy to cause misunderstanding among outsiders. ”

Zhao: "Li Shizi seems to be the same age as Uncle Xiaoguo......"

Gu Min: "But he, with his kind of body, apart from you, who would misunderstand his daughter?" ”

Maybe the ladies of all families are very satisfied with the title of Ningguo Mansion, but Gu Min, including the ladies she knows, none of them showed any interest in Li Yao, and they would never make fun of each other because of which girl mentioned Li Yao.

Zhao had heard that Duchess Ning Guo had always been worried about her eldest son's marriage, and reminded her daughter: "I'm afraid that Duchess Ning Guo has misunderstood, so I specially sent her daughter to you to test her tone." ”

If her daughter really likes Li Yao, Zhao will not object to anything except admiring her daughter's courage, but since her daughter has no intention, it is better to make it clear as soon as possible.

Gu Min said: "Don't worry, if Miss Li really wants to be tempted, I will definitely break her thoughts." ”

Saying goodbye to her mother, Gu Min went to the study and wrote a reply.

After Yunzhu received it, she took a closer look and learned that Gu Min was willing to go out of the city with her to enjoy the spring, but Gu Min had appointments with other ladies in the next three days, and she was free on August 25.

Yunzhu is not surprised.

The noble family in the capital is definitely not as large as the number of civil officials, Gu Shoufu's father and son have both colleagues and old friends of the same department, there are more civil officials who come and go, and Gu Min naturally knows far more ladies than Yunzhu, the girls go to your house today to enjoy the flowers, and tomorrow they go to her house to drink tea, and they are also very busy entertaining.

On the twenty-fifth day, the carriage of the Ningguo Mansion stopped outside the gate of the Gu Mansion at a quarter of an hour in advance.

Since he came, out of courtesy, Yunzhu would definitely go in to greet Gu Min's grandmother and mother.

The two ladies of the Gu family were very kind, praised Yunzhu with a smile, and asked the two girls to set off after giving a meeting gift.

After getting into the carriage, Yun Zhu looked at the jade bracelet on his wrist and said to Gu Min: "I invited you once, but I took advantage of two shares." ”

Gu Min said politely: "My sister has never seen anything rare in the Guogong Mansion, just don't dislike it." ”

Gu Min is just sixteen this year, two years younger than Yunzhu, but she has a gentle and demure temperament, and she looks more like a sister.

Yun Zhu listened to the sound of "sister" and smiled.

I don't know if it's because Gu Min has maintained her own family, or if Gu Min is with her eyes, Yunzhu has been dreaming of Gu Min being her sister-in-law for the past few days.

My brother's five big and three thick, a good woman like Gu Min can really take a fancy to her brother, it's just that their Li family's ancestral grave is smoking.

Thinking about her sister-in-law, Yunzhu didn't want to call Gu Min's sister, and learned from the two Mrs. Gu to call her a boudoir: "Okay, okay, let's not say that kind word, Amin, the spring has been bright and sunny recently, have you accompanied other sisters to see all those flowering mountains near the capital?" ”

Gu Min nodded, for example, the Taoxia Ridge, which is famous for its peach blossoms, she has been there four or five times.

Yunzhu: "I guess so, so I want to take you to a special place today." ”

Gu Min was a little nervous: "Where?" It's not good to go to the barren mountains and mountains that are inaccessible. ”

She had long heard that Yun Zhu was a bold man, and he could also do some gun and sword kung fu, and his riding skills were not inferior to Cao Shao's and other martial arts sons.

Yunzhu smiled: "Don't worry, I'll take you to Wanhua Mountain, where there is a lake, which is the most suitable for fishing." ”

In a circle of peaks near the capital, Wanhua Mountain is far away, and the mountain is majestic, more suitable for hunting, and the ladies will not go there if they are just to enjoy the flowers.

Yunzhu specially accompanied Gu Min today, so she naturally wanted to take her to enjoy some fresh scenery.

Knowing that Yunzhu's arrangement was fishing, plus a total of eight guards from the two families following behind the car, Gu Min was relieved.

.

Because Emperor Yuanqing often went to Wanhua Mountain to hunt, the official road from the capital to Wanhua Mountain was built smoothly, and the carriage of the Ningguo Mansion was fast, and it ran for an hour to the foot of the mountain.

When he got out of the car, Gu Min glanced back at the luxury in the car, and was very emotional.

Although my grandfather was the first assistant, he didn't like extravagance and waste, and the carriage of the Gu family was similar to that of ordinary officials.

The carriage of the Ningguo Mansion is not only comfortable to sit in, but even the wheels are shocked by special means, and there is not much feeling inside when it runs so fast.

This is the heritage of the House of the Founding Fathers.

After sitting in the carriage for so long, it was just when she couldn't wait to stretch her muscles, Yunzhu took Gu Min's hand and walked forward with a smile.

Gu Min quietly looked at Yunzhu's side face.

Such a beautiful Miss Guogongfu, the noble person who is rumored to look at people with nostrils, why is she so kind?

Treat her as a sister-in-law-to-be?

With a sudden burst in his heart, Gu Min gently broke free of Yunzhu's hand and said euphemistically: "I'll go by myself." ”

Yunzhu didn't force it, no matter how much she wanted to express her closeness, she had to be willing to do it.

Soon after entering the mountain, I saw a small stream, along the clear stream to walk upstream for two or three quarters of an hour, it is a quiet lake dozens of zhang wide, the lake water is clear, reflecting the blue white clouds, in it, you will have the feeling of being far away from the hustle and bustle.

Gu Min forgot to wipe his sweat, and his beautiful eyes were full of beautiful scenery.

Yunzhu often came here with his grandfather, who loved to eat the silver carp in the lake.

She took Gu Min to the shore of the lake in the back of the sun, and Forsythia and Pomegranate took out coarse cloth and carefully wiped the two smooth stones.

Yunzhu watched them busy with their work, and her mind was full of memories: "Originally, there were no stones here, and my grandfather specially brought them to make it easier for him to fish." ”

Gu Min lightly touched her arm: "The old man is good Yaxing." ”

Yun Zhu smiled: "Yes, my grandfather rarely came all the way over, my father doesn't like to eat fish, my brother loves to eat fish, but he doesn't have the patience to fish." ”

mentioned Li Yao, Gu Min didn't talk again.

Yun Zhu looked at his expression, guessing that he had thought too much before, and he was a little regretful, but he didn't regret this trip, Gu Min was not the kind of pedantic woman who only knew how to follow the rules, and it was not bad to be a sister in the boudoir.

The stones were polished, the fishing rods and bait were all placed beside them, and Yun Zhu concentrated on teaching Gu Min to catch the fish.

"If you're lucky, we'll eat grilled fish at noon."

"You can bake?"

"Of course, I learned it from my grandfather."

It's just that the old man who was very irritable to her father and brother but was able to calmly help her pick fish bones will never appear here again.

Revisiting the old place, Yunzhu just came out a little sour, and the fish hook that had just been put down for a long time actually moved!

Her eyes lit up, and when she looked at it, it was a silver carp more than a foot long!

Gu Min looked at her with admiration, and seeing the fish take the bait with her own eyes also aroused her interest in fishing.

After another quarter of an hour, no new fish were baited, but a few human voices came from the downstream side.

Without waiting for Yunzhu to signal, the guards of the two families had already stood vigilantly at the entrance to the lake.

After that, Yunzhu saw Cao Xun, Xie Lang, Xie Wenying, and a few others dressed up to follow behind them.

Yun Zhu's gaze turned around Cao Xun and Xie Wenying, sat up straight, and continued to stare at the lake.

With such a comparison, Gu Min really felt Yunzhu's enthusiasm for her.

She was not rude, so she stood up and took a few steps forward, lowering her eyes to Cao Xun and saluting her juniors: "Amin has seen Grandpa Guo." ”

Her father, Gu Qinghe, is thirty-four years old Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and he invited Cao Xun, the Duke of Dingguo, and Zhang Xingjian, the Marquis of Huai'an, to have dinner at home not long ago.

Cao Xun smiled: "Amin is actually here." ”

Gu Min nodded to Xie Lang's brother and sister, and then explained to Cao Xun: "Sister Yunzhu and I came here to fish, do Grandpa Guo and Xie Shizi also have an appointment?" ”

Cao Xun: "No, I just came back from worshipping my ancestors, and I met Xie Shizi on the way, and I warmly invited him, so I came over together." ”

Gu Min saw that he was wearing a muslin white robe, and he had indeed just sacrificed to his ancestors.

After the greetings, Cao Xun walked to the place where Gu Min had just fished and looked at her barrel.

Gu Min said embarrassedly: "I haven't caught it yet." ”

Cao Xun looked at the bucket on Yunzhu's side again.

Yun Zhu didn't look at him, but only comforted Gu Min: "You just started learning, and you haven't been fishing for a long time, so don't worry." ”

Xie Lang wanted to talk to her, but Yun Zhu stretched out his finger and pointed to the lake, and then stretched out a finger to his lips to signal him to shut up.

Xie Lang was helpless, so he asked the guards to put the low stool and fishing gear more than a dozen steps away.

It was not a coincidence that he came here, but when he was about to go out of the city, he recognized the carriage of the Ningguo Mansion, and saw the forsythia and pomegranate sitting in the wheel, and the entourage was carrying fishing tackle, guessing that Yunzhu was going to come to Wanhua Mountain to fish, so he hurried home and pulled his sister to come.

As for meeting Cao Xun halfway, Xie Lang was invited completely for his sister.

"Grandpa Guo, I'll accompany Amin, you go fishing."

Xie Wenying gave his fishing gear to Cao Xun, and after getting Gu Min's approval, he sat next to Gu Min.

Cao Xun agreed.

Watching people fishing naturally have to be quiet, Xie Wenying occasionally whispered a few words to Gu Min, and most of the time, she sat silently, her eyes fell on Cao Xun on the other side.

Yunzhu caught a few glimpses when he replaced the bait.

She herself is also worried about Cao Xun, and she doesn't think Xie Wenying's behavior is ridiculous, it is normal for a man to want to marry a beautiful woman, and a beautiful woman wants to marry a talent.

What Yunzhu cares about is Cao Xun's attitude, he promised to accompany the Xie family brothers and sisters to fish, could it be interesting to Xie Wenying?

Yunzhu is definitely more beautiful than Xie Wenying, and Cao Xun has to get close to Xie Wenying when he sees her, which either means that he is blind, or that he marries a wife more than just a picture.

Yunzhu is also self-aware, Xie Wenying acts more like a lady from a civil official's family, and her reputation is originally better than her, plus she was ruined by Cao Shao......

The mood was bad all of a sudden.
