happy match

There was a knock on the door suddenly: "Cousin, tenth sister, you two are talking about the same thing!"

Ye Qinglan was startled, and pushed Gu Xinian away without thinking.Caught off guard, Gu Xinian staggered a step when pushed by her, stood still in a bit of embarrassment, and then glared at Ye Qinglan.

Ye Qinglan didn't feel guilty at all, she just stared back at him confidently.Then he tidied up his clothes quickly, and only opened the door after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him.

Ye Qingning walked in with a smile on her face, and she didn't see anything unusual: "Cousin, thank you for judging the paintings for me. It's getting late, so I won't keep you any longer."

Gu Xinian collected himself and took a deep look at Ye Qingning: "Thank you, Cousin Ning, today."

This was probably the most serious and longest time he had looked at her.Ye Qingning suppressed the soreness in her heart, and said with a smile: "My cousin is really outrageous for saying that. My tenth sister and I will send you out right away."

Gu Xinian hummed casually, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Ye Qinglan's unusually calm smile, as if nothing had happened, and he didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed.This girl really has a way of pretending.Even when he looked at it, he felt that he and her had done nothing just now...

Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning sent Gu Xinian out of Huancui Pavilion together. Along the way, Ye Qinglan intentionally or unintentionally kept a distance from Gu Xinian, and did not say a word.

Ye Qingning knew it was the same thing, but she had to restrain herself and not be too intimate in front of her.Otherwise, it would just poke Ye Qingning's heart.

I don't know if Ye Qingning has noticed Ye Qinglan's thoughtfulness, anyway.Gu Xinian had noticed it.Although Jun had a smile on his face, there was some inexplicable unhappiness in his heart.

After sending Gu Xinian away, Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning secretly heaved a sigh of relief, looked at each other and smiled, but they were both slightly uncomfortable.

After returning to Huancui Pavilion, Ye Qinglan said in a low voice: "Sixth sister, thank you."

Between the sisters, there are many things that need not be said, and each other knows it well.

Ye Qingning was silent for a moment.Only then smiled and said: "It's just a little effort, what can I thank you for." After a pause, he said: "By the way, what is my cousin's plan? It's not an option to keep going in private like this. It's better to have a name to be more at ease. "

Although the family status of Uncle Changyuan's mansion is not low, it is not as good as Duke Dingguo's mansion.Even if it's a prostitute's daughter marrying Gu Xinian, it's a tall order, not to mention that Ye Qinglan is only a third-bedroom concubine.This level is naturally not easy to pass.

Ye Qinglan didn't hide it from her: "I also asked him. He told me not to worry, just wait."

Ye Qingning frowned: "Cousin didn't tell you his plan clearly?"

Mentioning this, Ye Qinglan also felt a little uncomfortable: "No." Gu Xinian was suspicious by nature, and never revealed his thoughts easily.Even if the relationship between the two is different from the past, this is not something that can be easily changed.

Ye Qingning didn't ask any further, and changed the subject casually: "That's right. What should Cui Yu do then?"

...Why does she have a weird feeling that she is a heartless girl?

Ye Qinglan was embarrassed for a moment, then smiled nonchalantly: "I have met him a few times, but we are just ordinary friends."

Ye Qingning said teasingly: "If you think that way, others may not necessarily think the same way. Cui Yu's thoughts on you can probably be seen by anyone with long eyes."

... Well, there is no need to hide it in front of Ye Qingning.

"Actually, I have been shaken before." Ye Qinglan said the truth in a rare way: "He is innocent and cute, and easy to get along with. If I marry him, life should be peaceful and happy. However, I only have good feelings for him. But there is no love between a man and a woman. I don’t want to marry someone I don’t love for a peaceful life. Moreover, his mother He Shi is shrewd and powerful, and I really don’t like her very much. So, I probably will I will never see Cui Yu alone again."

Ye Qingning sighed regretfully: "It's a pity to have such a good marriage." Then he smiled and said: "Although Cui Yu is good, but he is far worse than his cousin. No matter who it is, it will be like you choose."

Ye Qinglan smiled slightly.

In matters between men and women, there is no such thing as who is better than who is worse.In fact, the pure and lovely Cui Yu is the best choice.Even if there is a shrewd Mrs. He, with her intelligence and tact, it is not difficult to deal with it.On the other hand, Gu Xinian, with so many deep secrets hidden in his heart, shouldering the blood feud from his previous life, and having an entangled old lover, is not a good match no matter what.However, she just had feelings for him!

She didn't choose anyone, she just stayed true to her feelings.

Perhaps, one day in the future, the relationship between her and Gu Xinian ended in failure and did not come to fruition.Perhaps, at that time, she would regret that she had missed such a good man as Cui Yu.

However, at this time, she did not regret her decision.

In a lifetime, there are not many times when people can indulge in indulgence.She lived for so many years in her previous life, but she couldn't find her own love.After traveling through time, I met a man who made my heart beat. No matter how bumpy the road ahead is, I have to give it a try before I can be reconciled.

"...By the way, did you pay attention to Third Aunt's face?" Ye Qingning was overjoyed when he recalled it: "She still doesn't know what kind of anger she has in her heart, and she has to pretend to thank her on her face. I don't want to mention the joy in my heart."

Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "You and my cousin sister-in-law both came to support me, I am very happy. However, the gift you gave is really too expensive..."

"It's not as valuable as the gift from my cousin." Ye Qingning blinked narrowly: "I know you love calligraphy and painting, and I'm even willing to send you the paintings of Wu Daozi and Zhan Ziqian. Such calligraphy and paintings are at least worth a few dollars in the market." A thousand taels of silver. It will be used as a dowry in the future, and it will save face."

Ye Qinglan blushed slightly when she was teased, but she was thinking in her heart.Gu Xinian also set up a dark layer in the wooden box containing the scrolls, and it is said that some "scattered" banknotes were placed in it for her pocket money.

Based on her understanding of Gu Xinian, these so-called scattered bank notes will never be too small.

On my birthday, I received so many gifts.The maids were even more excited than Ye Qinglan.In the evening, Ruixue specially took out all the congratulatory gifts.The round pearls are shining brightly, and the emerald heads and ruby ​​heads are neatly placed in the box. The exquisite workmanship is amazing.There is also a red gold bracelet from Jiang Shi, earrings from Ye Qingrou, and a gold collar from Xue Shi.

Longan had never seen so many expensive jewelry before, she was simply dazzled.

Ruixue looked at the gold collar with disgust, and muttered: "This collar is a bit bulky, and it's fine for a child of a few years old. Miss is already this old, and it won't look good if she wears it."

Ye Qinglan didn't mind at all, she casually smiled and said, "It's better to have something than nothing, so put it all away! In the future, if you are short of money and spend it, take it out and exchange it for money."

That's true.Ruixue responded happily, and carefully put all the jewelry into the box and locked it.

Ye Qinglan couldn't wait to unfold the painting scroll and admire it carefully.The more I look at it, the more I like it.That day in Gu Xinian's study, when she saw these two paintings hanging on the wall, she had imagined that she would have no regrets in her life if she owned one of them.Unexpectedly, both of them belonged to her now!

So happy!I'll probably sleep with a smile on my face tonight!

Ye Qinglan smiled with crooked eyebrows, the radiance on her pretty face was more dazzling than pearls.

Ruomei coughed lightly: "Miss, these two paintings are very precious, they are too eye-catching to hang in the room. Why don't you put them in a wooden box and put them away." The word "wooden box" was emphasized intentionally or unintentionally.

Ye Qinglan naturally heard her hint, and responded with a smile: "Alright, you bring the wooden box here." Then he casually ordered: "I want to take a bath, Ruixue, take them to the kitchen to get some hot water Come."

Ruixue didn't doubt that he was there, she responded with a smile, and led Longan and the others back out.

Ruomei was free, and immediately opened the dark layer of the wooden box, and placed silver bills in the dark layer of the two wooden boxes.It doesn't add up too much, just fifty or sixty.

Ruomei glanced at her, then suddenly opened her eyes wide and gasped.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qinglan asked casually.

Ruomei calmed down and handed over the banknotes: "Miss, these banknotes are issued by the most famous bank in Beijing, and can be exchanged for cash at any time. Each denomination is not too big, only 100 taels."

100 taels?It's really not that big.

Ye Qinglan thought casually, and only after receiving a thick stack of bank notes did she think of an important question.Each bank note is 100 taels, fifty or sixty, isn't it... five or six thousand taels?

Ye Qinglan stared blankly at the bank note in her hand, and finally understood why Ruomei had that expression.Ordinary families buy a dowry for their daughters, and one or two hundred taels is enough.The aristocratic ladies are different, and the dowry of dozens of units will cost at least one or two thousand taels.For someone like Ye Qingning who came from a high family background and was subsidized by his parents privately, the dowry is naturally far more than this amount.Adding cash to the farm shop can probably reach 200 taels of silver.

With her status as an unfavored concubine, when she gets married in the future, it will be considered good if Xue is willing to spend 1000 taels of silver.Gu Xinian gave some pocket money, which turned out to be five or six thousand taels of silver...

Is it too late to go back now?

Ye Qinglan looked at Ruomei expectantly: "Ruomei, you said you can send messages at any time, right? Can you send these bank notes back?"

Ruomei replied honestly: "I'm afraid it won't work. Since the young master has sent it here, he will definitely not allow the servant to send it back. Miss, please don't embarrass the servant."

Ye Qinglan could only smile wryly, feeling that the pile of silver bills in her hand was very hot.

Suddenly from a poor man to a rich man... This feeling is really not ordinary! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
