happy match

What he said was reasonable, it was really inconvenient for the female relatives to come forward to greet the male guests.But how could Ye Qingning have the guts to ask Gu Xinian to "greeting" Shen Changan, coughed and said with a laugh: "There's no reason for my cousin to greet guests for me, it's more appropriate to invite me to Danfeng Garden."

After finishing speaking, he didn't have the courage to look at Gu Xinian's expression, so he immediately ordered the servant girl: "Go and invite Mr. Shen to Danfeng Garden."

The maid hurriedly took orders.

Gu Xinian suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "Cousin Ning is going to greet the guests, so we won't make any trouble. Yu'er, your painting is not finished yet, I just happen to accompany you to finish it." Obviously they made up their minds not to let Gu Xiyu go to see Shen Chang'an!

Gu Xiyu wanted to say something, but she was defeated by Gu Xinian's cold gaze, and obediently responded.Facts have proved that Gu Xiyu, who has lived under the love and majesty of her elder brother all year round, has no courage to resist most of the time...

Gu Xinian was quite satisfied with her reaction, and his expression softened a little.But after hearing Ye Qinglan's crisp and sweet voice, she sank again: "Cousin Gu and cousin Xiyu are not going to Danfeng Garden, so I will go with Sixth Sister."

Gu Xinian glared at Ye Qinglan, with unquestionable anger in his eyes.Ever since he got to know Ye Qinglan, the self-control he is so proud of has been on the decline...

Ye Qinglan didn't even look at him, she took Ye Qingning's hand and walked away.

Seeing that Gu Xinian's face was ugly, Gu Xiyu whispered, "Brother, should we still paint?"

……

How could he still be in this mood!Ye Qinglan clearly knew that he hated Shen Changan, but she deliberately went with Ye Qingning.It was clear that it was to force him to change his mind, and he also brought Gu Xiyu there...

Gu Xinian took a deep breath, and said calmly, "We won't paint anymore, let the maids clean up, and we'll go to Danfeng Garden too!"

You said you couldn't go just now, why are you going now?Gu Xiyu almost asked this sentence, but finally swallowed it back in time.Regardless of why the elder brother changed his mind, it was good news for her.

Compared to Gu Xiyu's joy, Gu Xinian's mood was very depressed.Not only because Shen Chang'an came to the door with audacity.More importantly, he actually changed his mind because of Ye Qinglan.

This is really a dangerous signal for him who is determined.He has been paying more and more attention to that cunning and clever girl...

Shen Qiuyu's ruthless betrayal was the biggest scar in his heart, and it was also a humiliation he would never forget.He once swore to himself that he would never fall in love with any woman again in this life, and never lose his mind over a woman again.After rebirth.He has always kept this vow.There is even the idea of ​​never marrying a wife and being alone.

But who would have thought that after just a few years, he would break his vow and be fascinated by a yellow-haired girl who hasn't grown up yet.There is even a tendency to sink deeper and deeper...

Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan went one step ahead and arrived at Danfeng Garden.Before Shen Changan came, Ye Qingning couldn't help nagging worriedly: "Sister Ten, don't blame me for talking too much. Cousin seems easy-going, but in fact he is the most arrogant and assertive. He doesn't like others to disobey His heart. You always confront him. What if he ignores you in a fit of anger? "

Although Ye Qingning has an arrogant temper, she is still an ancient woman deeply poisoned by feudal ideology.In her eyes, women always have to rely on men to survive, and it's okay to act like a baby in front of men.It's not good to be screwed all the time.

Ye Qinglan was just the opposite.Don't look at her gentle and easy-going performance, she is actually the most assertive, and she replied lightly after hearing the words: "If you ignore me just because of this trivial matter, then you don't need such feelings."

It was the first time Ye Qingning heard such an argument.He froze for a moment, staring blankly at Ye Qinglan.I couldn't speak for a long time.

The girl in front of her was both familiar and yet so strange.Her eyes were clear and firm, and it was obvious that she was not joking.As always, there seemed to be something more incomprehensible in the smile.

Ye Qingning suddenly felt that she had never really understood this good sister...

Ye Qinglan laughed again, and winked at Ye Qingning: "Are you scared by me?"

At this moment, the familiar Ye Qinglan returned.Ye Qingning breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and gave Ye Qinglan a reproachful look: "You're playing tricks on me again."

Ye Qinglan smiled and said: "I was just joking, who knows that you will take it seriously. By the way, I will make a bet with you, Cousin Gu will bring Cousin Xiyu to Danfeng Garden later, do you believe it or not? "

Of course Ye Qingning didn't believe it, and said without hesitation: "Okay, the bet is the bet! The loser cooks for a day."

Ye Qinglan raised her eyebrows, and said with a leisurely smile: "Sixth sister, you just wait to wash your hands and make soup."

Just talking and laughing, Shen Changan came.Ye Qingning politely invited him to a seat, and ordered him to serve tea.Seeing that there were only the two of them but Gu Xiyu was missing, Shen Chang'an felt extremely disappointed.Can't help but ask: "Has Sister Gu returned home?"

...It's really not reserved at all!

Ye Qingning was about to answer, but she caught sight of the Gu Xinian brothers and sisters approaching with sharp eyes, and immediately opened her eyes wide in disbelief.No way!Ye Qinglan actually hit the mark!

Gu Xinian hated Shen Chang'an so much, and insisted not to let Gu Xiyu show up before, why did he bring Gu Xiyu here in the blink of an eye?

In fact, Ye Qinglan wasn't completely sure. At this moment, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling inexplicably happy.Of course, she knew very well how much such a move was a concession to Gu Xinian.In the confrontation between the two, this was the first time that Gu Xinian gave in...

Does this mean that he actually cares more and more about himself?

Gu Xinian's gaze drifted over lightly, and met Ye Qinglan's joyful gaze.Gu Xinian was a little embarrassed by being seen through, but also slightly annoyed and unhappy, so he simply looked away.

Ye Qingning had adjusted in just a moment, and said with a smile: "Cousin came just in time, I really want someone to invite you over!" This kind of scene naturally made Gu Xinian step down.

Gu Xinian quickly regained his demeanor of a noble son, and took his seat gracefully.Gu Xiyu sat down beside him.

Shen Changan suppressed his excitement, and greeted with a smile.

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person with his hand, he has already shown such enthusiasm, Gu Xinian won't lose his face any more!

It's a pity that Gu Xinian was the exception, so he hummed lukewarmly: "Cousin Meng and Cousin Zheng each went to work in the government office, I don't know who Mr. Shen is visiting at the mansion today? "

……

Shen Chang'an smiled awkwardly, took a quick look at Gu Xiyu, and then explained: "I wanted to visit Zijun, but I didn't expect that he had already started to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. What a coincidence!" Missing Gu Xiyu so much, that's why she had the cheek to visit her.Unexpectedly, Gu Xiyu saw her, and along the way, she also sent a cold-faced elder brother who was even colder at heart...

Gu Xinian twitched the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes: "It's really not a coincidence. If you really want to see Cousin Meng, then I will definitely tell him and ask him to visit Zhongyonghou's mansion another day. Also Mr. Shen of the province has made a trip in vain!"

...It's really thanks to Shen Chang'an's old and thick skin, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to survive.

Although Ye Qingning sympathized with Shen Changan very much, but he did not dare to help him easily.Not to mention Gu Xiyu, she has always been silent.On such occasions, usually nothing is said.

Only Ye Qinglan has the courage, guts and strength to come to the rescue!

"Mr. Shen is working in the Ministry of War, so he must be very busy!" Ye Qinglan changed the topic with a smile.

Shen Chang'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a quick smile: "It's true that I'm busy. So I haven't had time to come here these few days. Today, I've been busy with things, so I took some free time to visit Zijun. By the way, Zijun has already started working in the Ministry of Punishment. You must be very busy, too!"

"Yes, I go out early and come back late every day, and I haven't seen anyone else for several days." Ye Qinglan's tone accidentally revealed a trace of sadness and embarrassment.

Although it was only a little bit, it was enough to make Gu Xinian's face darken.

Shen Changan didn't notice, and still talked to Ye Qinglan about various topics about Meng Zijun: "...I told this kid before, let him come to the Ministry of War, and I can take care of him more. But he wants to He went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and also to the most difficult and tiring department of supervision. This errand never stopped from morning to night. Sometimes he would offend the powerful, but it was definitely not a good job. But he just wanted to go, I can't even persuade you..."

Shen Changan complained a lot out of brotherly loyalty.

Ye Qinglan smiled and listened, and after Shen Changan finished speaking, she said lightly: "Everyone has his own ambition, as long as he likes it, that's fine."

Shen Chang'an thought for a while, then smiled: "You're right. As long as he doesn't find it hard."

The two chatted lively and happily, but Gu Xinian became more and more uncomfortable as he listened.When Ye Qinglan mentioned Meng Zijun, there was always a strange familiarity and unconscious intimacy.It's strange that he can listen to it...

Gu Xinian said abruptly: "It's already noon, is Mr. Shen planning to stay for lunch?"

...was really planning on doing that.But the good-tempered Zheng Junyan and his good brother Meng Zijun were not there, he really didn't have the courage to face Gu Xinian's poisonous tongue alone.

Anyway, he was already mentally prepared for a long-term battle, so he didn't need to rush forward, it wouldn't be worthwhile to offend his uncle!

Shen Chang'an thought about it, got up and said goodbye.

Ye Qingning politely persuaded her to stay a few words, and sent the guests off smoothly.Shen Changan gave Gu Xiyu a reluctant look, and finally left.

Even though he didn't have a chance to speak, maybe seeing Gu Xiyu for a while would be a worthwhile trip. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
