happy match

Mrs. Zheng soon noticed something was wrong with Ye Qingning.For several days in a row, I was depressed and had no smile on my face, and I was indifferent to my words.Ye Qinglan, who had been by her side the whole time, also disappeared.

Zheng Shi secretly felt strange.Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan have always been good friends, going in and out together every day.What's going on these days?Shouldn't it be awkward!

"Ning'er, why didn't Sister Lan come here with you?" Zheng asked casually.

Sure enough, Ye Qingning's face immediately sank, and she replied coldly: "She is busy packing her luggage to go to Duke Ding's mansion, so she won't have time to accompany me."

There is a lot of resentment in these words!Mrs. Zheng glanced at Ye Qingning with a half-smile: "What's the matter, are you having trouble with Sister Lan? Sister Lan has also been a guest at Duke Ding's Mansion before, and I've never seen you unhappy."

The corners of Ye Qingning's lips were pursed tightly, and she turned her head aside.

At this moment, the porter came to report: "Ma'am, the carriage of Dingguo Palace has arrived at the gate, and Young Master Gu has also come, saying that he is here to pick up Miss Ten to go to Dingguo Palace."

Mrs. Zheng hummed casually, and told Dongyan: "Go to Hefengyuan and report to Miss Ten, and tell her that the carriage from Dingguo's mansion is here, and ask her to pack her luggage."

Dongyan took the order and went.Ye Qingning was originally sitting, but suddenly stood up: "I'm a little tired, I'll go back to Huancui Pavilion first."

Zheng frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Why do you still have this childish temper?"

"Isn't mother the last thing you want me to see my cousin?" Ye Qingning responded blankly, "I'm taking the initiative to avoid it now, what else is mother dissatisfied with?"

Zheng choked.Instead of being angry, he smiled: "In the past, you were told to avoid him, but you ignored him and insisted on coming out to see him. Now it's all right, I let you see you and refused to see you again. Is it because Xi came to pick up Sister Lan? Are you upset about it?"

These words directly hit the sore spot in Ye Qingning's heart, she bit her lips tightly and did not speak, her pretty face turned pale.

Zheng's distressed and angry at the same time, she winked at the maids around her, and all the maids backed away.Then she said in a low voice: "What is Xi Nian's status, even if he has a good impression of Sister Lan, it is absolutely impossible to marry her. Besides, even if you marry, it has nothing to do with you. You will be married in May. I'm getting married. What kind of dry vinegar are you eating now?"

Ye Qingning's eyes were watery, and he turned his head away again.

Zheng's tone softened again: "Okay. Xi Nian will be here later, so you should be more calm and generous. And Sister Lan, you and her have always been on good terms, so you won't be able to get along with her just because of such a trivial matter. Fall out..."

"How is this a trivial matter!" Ye Qingning turned her head and said angrily: "It's obvious that she is dating my cousin behind my back, but she is still my good sister. Knowing that I...still doing this, she doesn't treat me as a sister at all." look!"

After all.This is what Ye Qingning cares about the most.If Gu Xinian showed affection for other women, she would be sour at most and would never be so angry.But that person happened to be Ye Qinglan...

Seeing that her eye circles were red, Mrs. Zheng felt a little uncomfortable, so she had to coax patiently: "The matter is already like this, even if you get angry again, it won't help the matter. It's better to take it easy. Don't take it to heart. Wait When I see Sister Lan in a while, don't be so awkward. Be magnanimous. Don't let people see the joke!"

Ye Qingning replied stubbornly: "I don't want to see her, anyone who likes to read my jokes can just watch it." After saying that, he walked out.

Zheng couldn't catch up, and sighed helplessly.

Unexpectedly, just as Ye Qingning walked to the door, a tall and elegant figure walked towards her.Ye Qingning wanted to hide before it was too late, so she met the visitor squarely, and her red eyes clearly fell into the visitor's eyes.

Caught off guard, Ye Qingning was ashamed, annoyed and regretful. He actually saw this distressed look...

Gu Xinian's eyes flickered slightly, as if he didn't see Ye Qingning's flushed eyes, he said with a gentle smile, "Cousin Ning is in such a hurry, she must go back to Huancui Pavilion!"

Ye Qingning forced a smile: "Yes, my cousin came early today. I won't talk with you, I'll go back first."

As soon as the words fell, a slender figure appeared in front of her eyes.The familiar smile was as gentle and pleasant as ever, but in her eyes, it was indescribably dazzling.It's like the smile of a victor showing off a demonstration.

Ye Qingning's smile froze, but she refused to show any strangeness in front of Gu Xinian, and forced herself to continue to smile: "What a coincidence, the tenth sister is also here."

Ye Qinglan silently glanced at the extremely stiff Ye Qingning with a smile, feeling really uncomfortable.

The two sisters, who were once close, are now in such an embarrassing situation where they are relatively speechless. It would be a lie to say that they don't feel uncomfortable.But in front of Gu Xinian, he couldn't say much, so he could only respond with a nonchalant smile, "Sixth Sister is going back to Huancui Pavilion!"

Ye Qingning continued to smile stiffly: "Yeah, I'm a little tired, so I won't see you off." Her ability to hide her emotions was far worse than Ye Qinglan's.

Standing opposite, Gu Xinian saw her subtle expression clearly, but pretended he didn't see anything, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then Cousin Ning should go back and rest quickly." Here, everyone feels embarrassed.

Ye Qingning twitched the corners of her lips, said goodbye before leaving.When passing by Ye Qinglan's side, he quickly took a look at Ye Qinglan.In that look, there was envy, jealousy, resentment and hostility.

Ye Qinglan smiled wryly in her heart, and returned a small smile.

Ye Qingning quickly withdrew her gaze, walked straight with her back straight.

With such a move, Ye Qinglan's original good mood suddenly disappeared.Seeing Gu Xinian didn't feel much joy either, he smiled lightly and called "Brother Gu", and then stopped talking.

Gu Xinian frowned slightly, then stretched his brows and said to Zheng with a smile: "Auntie, I'm here to pick up Cousin Lan."

Mrs. Zheng had a panoramic view of the scene just now, but there was a nonchalant smile on her face: "It's getting late, so I won't keep you for dinner. Just hurry back to Duke Ding's mansion before dark."

After a few polite words, Gu Xinian formally bid farewell.Before leaving, Mrs. Zheng told Ye Qinglan intentionally or unintentionally: "Sister Lan, you are going to be a guest at Duke Ding's mansion this time, so don't be willful."

Ye Qinglan could understand if there was something in the words, and immediately responded obediently: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will be obedient, and I won't argue with Cousin Gu again."

Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows with a half-smile.

Mrs. Zheng sent the two of them off, and then returned to Luomei Courtyard.Ye Qinglan silently followed behind Gu Xinian. The distance between the two was not too far, only about three meters away.

When they reached the door, Ye Qinglan couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and reflexively glanced at Gu Xinian.Strange, why there is only one carriage, where did Gu Xinian's fine horse go?Didn't he plan to share a carriage with her?

Gu Xinian said calmly, "Cousin Lan, please get in the carriage."

Ye Qinglan had no choice but to walk to the side of the carriage, Ruixue was about to approach, but there was a figure moving faster than her, firmly reaching out to support Ye Qinglan's arm: "Cousin Lan, be careful."

The hand holding her arm was slender and strong, even through several layers of clothing, she could still feel the warmth of his palm.

Ye Qinglan's heart skipped a beat, her cheeks felt a little hot, and she quickly glared at him.How could you do such an intimate gesture in front of the maids?

Gu Xinian raised the corners of his lips slightly, but his expression was extremely serious: "Don't look around, be careful not to fall."

Ye Qinglan had no choice but to put on a nonchalant expression, and thanked with a smile: "Thank you Cousin Gu." The two of them were so calm, the maids on the side really didn't dare to be careless, but they couldn't help but take a second look.

Ye Qinglan got into the carriage and finally breathed a sigh of relief.As soon as he sat down, he saw Gu Xinian also got into the carriage.He sat down on the opposite side without haste.

……

Ye Qinglan asked with a half-smile: "Cousin Gu, why doesn't he ride a horse today?" It's been a long time since I've known him, and this is the first time I've seen him ride a carriage.

Gu Xinian replied casually: "Since you came here specially to pick up Cousin Lan, of course you have to be sincere."

Ye Qinglan was about to fight back, but saw the maids coming up one by one, so she had to stop there.

With Gu Xinian around, the maids didn't dare to speak casually, and stood aside tremblingly.Although the carriage is spacious enough to seat five or six people, but with Gu Xinian here, how dare they sit there?

The carriage was very stable at the beginning, but after leaving the alley, it was a little bumpy.Longan staggered accidentally, and she didn't know where her head hit, and she yelled.

Ye Qinglan was startled, and immediately asked: "Longan, how are you? Where did you hit?"

Longan pressed her forehead with her hand, with a face of shame: "Miss, don't worry, the slaves are thick-skinned and thick-skinned, it doesn't matter if you bump them." I am really clumsy, and I am ashamed of the miss again!

Ye Qinglan cast a reproachful glance at Longan: "What are you doing standing there, come sit beside me quickly. There are a few of you, please sit down too."

The maids hesitated for a moment, and looked at each other quietly.The master expressed kindness, but the few of them dared not accept it.Two or three could sit beside Ye Qinglan, but who would dare to sit beside Gu Xinian?

Gu Xinian said with a faint smile: "Although this carriage is spacious, it is too crowded for five people to sit together. How about this, cousin Lan and I sit on the side, and the four of you sit together."

……

After all, Ruixue was more courageous, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Young Master Gu, for your compassion, servants and others would be more respectful than obedient."

Speaking of this, Ye Qinglan refused again, but it was too obvious, so she stood up with a nonchalant smile: "You guys come and sit down."

After Ruixue and the others sat down, Ye Qinglan reluctantly sat beside Gu Xinian.

Before she could sit still, the carriage bumped a bit, and Ye Qinglan couldn't react in time, she fell to Gu Xinian's side. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
