Chapter 405

When Song Pan'er was angry, she said that Gu Xuanzhi was wrong, and Gu Xuanzhi seldom retaliated.

It was rare that his boring gourd made a sound, and when he said "things happen for a reason", Song Pan'er listened attentively.

When Gu Xuanzhi's gaze met his mother's, there was a flash in his heart.Relying on half a bowl of wine in his stomach, the courage he had built up and the courage he had finally mustered up all disappeared.

His eyes flickered, and he said falteringly: "Li Huai is a concubine, invite everyone to have a drink...Everyone is going, but I won't go, it's not good..."

After speaking, he felt that this reason was not appropriate.

Xuanpinghou's Li family has many heirs, and Li Huai is the fourth son. Li Houye never placed high hopes on him, as long as he doesn't cause trouble.Li Huai is about the same age as Gu Xuanzhi, he has made a name for himself and has been married for two years.

At the end of last year, Li Huaina had a beautiful concubine, and she was very happy, saying that she would entertain everyone.But Li Huai's cousin got married, and the quarrel continued until the end of the year, and his banquet was put on hold.

After the new year, on the fourth day of the first lunar month, when the court opened, the Li family also let the children out to play, and Li Huai invited everyone to a banquet.

Gu Xuanzhi received the invitation in the morning.

He originally planned to ask the boy to seal the gift and send it away, but he didn't go by himself.

But he was careless for a while, and forgot to say something in front of Seventh Sister, which made him very embarrassed.He knew that Seventh Sister would definitely ask, and if he told his mother, she might scold him in front of his brother-in-law.

He didn't want to be scolded in front of outsiders, so he simply hid.

Now when he came back, his mother said every word that he didn't know the rules.But he didn't bring out the words of his favorite person, which shows that Seventh Sister didn't tell his mother, Gu Xuanzhi was relieved.

While talking, the mother's words were transferred to the starling Gu Xiuzhi.

Mother can't understand Gu Xiuzhi, but he is still Gu Xuanzhi's elder brother.

Their brothers have feelings.

Gu Xuanzhi didn't want his mother to always say that Gu Xiuzhi was not good, and when he got angry, he wanted to tell the truth.If it drags on, it won't last for a few days.Even if Seventh Sister didn't say anything, it's been February.It was too late for the mother to seriously discuss marriage with the Zou family.

At that time, there was no way to hide.

Sooner or later it will be said.

He wanted to say it cruelly, no matter what kind of storm his mother had.

But when things came to an end, he flinched again.

He took Li Huai out as a target.

However, this target was not well chosen.

Because of Li Huai's concubine's banquet.He left his sister and brother-in-law behind, fearing that his mother would be even more angry.Gu Xuanzhi felt very regretful and wanted to make amends, but he was afraid of making too many mistakes.

He glanced anxiously at his mother.

The mother didn't get angry anymore, but looked at him suspiciously.Gu Xuanzhi was afraid of being exposed, so he hurriedly rolled his eyes away.

He felt a little strange.Why didn't my mother get angry?Such a calm mother made Gu Xuanzhi even more timid.

He anxiously waited for his mother's next words.

half an hour.He heard his mother say in a low voice: "It's so late, let's go and rest first. I'll settle the score with you tomorrow morning. Even if Li Huai invited you to a banquet, you should come in yourself and tell us and your brother-in-law. "

Gu Xuanzhi was overjoyed, so let him go?He said yes.

But he didn't dare to get carried away and show strangeness, so he still didn't move his feet.

"Go ahead," said the mother.

Gu Xuanzhi hurriedly left from the main courtyard.

Wait for him to go.Song Pan'er and his wife looked at each other, thinking about each other.

Such a conversation.The time has arrived before you know it.

Song Pan'er washed her hands and lay down with her husband to rest.

She can't sleep.She thought carefully about Brother Xuan's words just now, why did it sound a bit dispirited.

Is he envious of Li Huai's concubine?

Is he embarrassed and embarrassed by his current situation?

These years, Song Pan'er has been very strict with the children, and the maids around the children must be honest and behave.Whoever dares to flirt with the young masters will sell them if they let the wind out.

At home, they have never been touched by women.

Outside, there must have been.

For example, Brother Xiu studied in Songshan Academy and met many friends, and Brother Xuan got closer to Li Huai.Li Huai is clever and cautious in doing things, and he must have done stealing the forbidden fruit.

Song Pan'er didn't want to pursue it.

She pursued things in the dark too much, and the children had no face outside.As long as the atmosphere in the family is good and the children take reading as their main occupation, Song Pan'er will be satisfied.

Brother Xuan has the same personality as Gu Yanzhen, he is reluctant to work hard in reading, and he is not as lucky and good at memory as Song Yanzhao, so his grades are mediocre.

He is not thinking about studying, so he will definitely pay attention to matters between men and women.

If it wasn't for Gu Yanzhen's interruption, Song Pan'er would have married him a wife last year.Now that it has been dragged on until now, it has not been settled yet, does Brother Xuan have any complaints?

Will he be envious when he looks at his friend's beautiful wife and concubine?

Do his friends often make fun of him?

Li Huai is a concubine, if he doesn't go, will his friends laugh at him even more?That's why he knew his mother would be angry, so he wanted to go to participate?

For these reasons, he must not be able to speak.

The more Song Pan'er thought about it, the more she felt that what she had thought was right.

"What do you mean by Brother Xuan?" Song Pan'er pushed Gu Yanzhen who was pretending to be asleep beside him, and asked him as if to prove, "He doesn't even have a roommate, do people outside always laugh at him?"

Gu Yanzhen pretended to be asleep, because she was afraid that Song Pan'er would find fault again.

Seeing her talking seriously, Gu Yanzhen couldn't help but answer, saying: "I haven't married a wife yet, what are you joking about? It's not like his friends don't know the rules of a family like us."

"What about Brother Xuan, what does he think?" Song Pan'er asked again.

Gu Yanzhen was silent.

Brother Xuan's age is exactly the age to be curious about girls.

Say no, it must be fake.

If you think about it, will Song Pan'er take the opportunity to find fault with him and brother Xiu?Gu Yanzhen hesitated in his heart.

"I'm not a roundworm in brother Xuan's stomach. How do I know what he's thinking?" Gu Yanzhen perfunctory, "It doesn't matter whether he complains or not. After the new year, we will settle the matter with the Zou family, and we will marry him a wife at the end of the year. In the future, I will ask my uncle to find him an errand..."

"...Brother Xuan has not been very close to me recently, but he has been blaming me in his heart for not marrying him a wife earlier?" Song Pan'er didn't hear Gu Yanzhen's words, and just immersed herself in her own emotions .

Gu Yanzhen was stunned for a while.

Have you not kissed recently?

When did your son get close to you?Gu Yanzhen slandered.

Others dare not say that everyone in the family is afraid of Song Pan'er, and this has never changed.

It used to be Gu Yanzhen.Since brother Xiu won the Juren last year, Song Pan'er has not explicitly complained about brother Xuan's failure to live up to expectations, but this is what he meant inside and out.Now Gu Xuanzhi is also terrified.

She quarreled with Gu Yanzhen from time to time, all because of this matter.

Brother Xuan is not stupid, why can't he hear it?

After hearing what my mother said, no matter how magnanimous Brother Xuan is, I am afraid that he will also have a grudge.

It's not that I don't want to get close, but that I don't dare.

Gu Yanzhen felt that.Song Pan'er didn't know the crux of the problem, but Gu Yanzhen didn't want to remind her, so as not to annoy her again.He stopped answering the call, continued to pretend to be asleep, and fell asleep after a while.

At the first moment of the next morning, Gu Jinzhi came over to say hello.By the way, I went to Song Pan'er for dinner.

She brought Yan Shan over.

"The prince is out, Yanying and Yanshao won't wake up until the end of the day..." Gu Jinzhi explained with a smile.

Song Pan'er laughed.Nod.

She called Yan Shan to her side, put his little hand in her palm, and asked him: "Is it cold?"

Yan Shan replied in a low voice, "It's not cold, grandma."

His voice is soft and nice.

Yanshan looks like Gu Jinzhi, and Song Pan'er loves him more and more.

Gu Jinzhi's four younger brothers also came.

There was silence at the dinner table.

After breakfast, Gu Xiuzhi will go out to study.Gu Xuanzhi also avoided his mother, and the two left in a hurry.

Song Pan'er told Xiao Shi and Xiao Eleven: "Take Yanshan with you. Look around in our yard..." Yanying looked all over yesterday.

Xiao Shi and Xiao Shi said yes, and got up to take Yan Shan out.

Yan Shan hid from Gu Jinzhi's side.

Gu Jinzhi held him in his arms, and said with a smile, "What are you afraid of? Uncle took you to play. Mother is here. If it's not fun, you can come back to find mother, okay?"

Yan Shan pursed his lips slightly, but still shrank into Gu Jinzhi's arms.

Gu Yanzhen smiled and said: "There is a cantaloupe in my grandfather's study, do you want to eat it?"

In Luzhou, it's hard to get something like cantaloupe.

At this time of year, it is also rare in Beijing.

During the Chinese New Year, my aunt sent a basket.

Yesterday I cut it before lunch, Yanshan liked it very much, and asked what it was.

He glanced at Gu Yanzhen.

Gu Jinzhi said again and again: "You go with your grandfather, okay? Yanshan is obedient. Mother likes obedient children."

It was only then that Yan Shan reluctantly followed Gu Yanzhen away.

After Yan Shan and Gu Yanzhen left, Song Pan'er also sent Xiao Shi and Xiao Shi away.

She took the opportunity to say to Gu Jinzhi: "Yanshan is too timid. Brother Xuan was also timid when he was young, but he is a bit better than Yanshan. Don't pamper him too much, otherwise he will rely on you and become more timid."

Then, she couldn't help but said, "You control the child in everything, like a wet nurse..."

Gu Jinzhi was amused by this sentence.

She was even a little happy.

She felt that a qualified mother should be like a wet nurse.Of course, it's out of place in this day and age.The mother's words also affirmed Gu Jinzhi's efforts.

"I'm in Luzhou, and I don't have any relatives or friends. Except for the prince, the children are closest to me. Naturally, I care more." Gu Jinzhi explained.

Song Pan'er felt sour again.

Seeing that her topic was getting further and further away, Gu Jinzhi hurriedly pulled her back and asked her, "Mother, what do you want to tell me?"

"Did brother Xuan tell you anything yesterday?" Song Pan'er asked Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi feels that there are some things that should not be told to her mother until she is clear about them.Mother has now learned a little restraint, after all, she is hot-tempered and self-defeating.

Therefore, Gu Jinzhi lied and said, "I didn't say anything. Why, did Brother Xuan say anything when he came back last night?"

"He doesn't tell me anything." Song Pan'er was angry, "The older the child, the more he can't help it. He is not very happy when he comes back. Your father and I guessed that the few friends he knew were all married. He watched Is it hot-eyed? I think, in February this year, make his marriage final..."
