Dirty color

Chapter 126 Snake

He should have waited for the maid to come, but Qu Linjiang's heart was a little hot. He wanted to get a closer look at Miss Gu, so he couldn't help but take a few steps closer. Of course, he was still watching. Within the boundaries of the ceremony, it's just that they are closer than before, and they can see their appearance more clearly.

Qu Linjiang sighed. In fact, it is not that he has never seen a beautiful woman, but he may know that Miss Gu will be his wife, and she is much better than he imagined. , it was very hot.

"Slave Chen Xiang, thank you, Young Master Qu." Seeing that Gu Yuwen's words had been picked up by Qu Linjiang, Chen Xiang was not in a hurry—she vaguely knew what her young lady was thinking, so she also cooperated in not being in a hurry In the past, this was the only way for the young master of the Qu family to see his young lady's good calligraphy and a good poem, right?
Regardless of whether the young lady's thoughts can be fulfilled or not, but the good reputation of the young lady is definitely good for the young lady. Chen Xiang very much hopes that such a kind young lady can realize her wishes.

So she deliberately pretended to have sprained her ankle, and slowly walked to Qu Linjiang's side, and after Qu Linjiang handed over the poem, she pretended to endure the pain and saluted Qu Linjiang to thank him.

Just as Chen Xiang was about to turn back, he heard a scream from the open room.

Like Gu Yuwen, Chen Xiang also turned her head immediately, and then saw a young lady from the side of the Gu family screaming and jumping up and down: "Snake, there is a snake, help me..."

Gu Mingxuan was talking to someone with her head tilted, but when she heard the scream, she couldn't help but look sideways—a snake?Recently, I keep hearing about snakes, and I really feel...

Then she saw that on the bluestone floor of Changxuan, there really was a snake coiled up, spitting out a letter.

Gu Mingxuan was startled, where did this snake come from?This open space is full of bluestone slabs, even if a snake swims in, shouldn't it be at the edge first, why is it directly in the middle?

Before she could ask a question, the snake was startled by whoever it was, and it jumped up suddenly, and at this time, another person exclaimed: "Ah, the snake is on the ceiling... run away... ..."

After a while, the person ran out, and Gu Mingxuan naturally wouldn't wait where she was, but she still remembered that her knees were temporarily immobilized, so she didn't dare to run, instead she walked out at a normal speed.

Qu Linjiang looked at it, and although she knew that Gu Mingxuan couldn't walk fast because of her knees, the expression on her face didn't look like others were panicked. Qu Linjiang only felt that Gu Mingxuan was calm and calm when things happened. The lady's demeanor and the admiration in her heart have added another layer.

Gu Mingxuan walked slowly. Originally, she was walking by the side, and the side was spacious enough that no one should bump into her at all, but someone did bump into her, causing Gu Mingxuan to stagger and almost fell down. Although Du Juan I supported him, but there was a dull pain in my knee.

Seeing Gu Mingzhi's complacent look, Gu Mingxuan's face darkened slightly. Looking at Gu Mingzhi's recent performance, she thought that Gu Mingzhi's temper had changed. It turned out that it was easy to change his nature, but no matter how good he pretended to be, the critical moment came. , or it will be bad.

Qu Linjiang looked very anxious, but he didn't dare to show too much eagerness. Instead, he let out a sigh of relief when Gu Mingxuan walked out slowly.

Seeing Gu Mingxuan's appearance, Qu Linjiang no longer wanted to stand with her for a while, and only hoped that she would go down to rest earlier.

He hastily stepped forward and said to the ladies: "Don't panic, the more you run around, the easier it is to scare the snakes and insects. You should form a team of three or five and let the servants pull out a chrysanthemum first." Beat the flowers and trees in front to open the way, if there are snakes, you will be scared away, if not, all the ladies will follow behind and walk slowly to the bluestone road, in this way, even if there are snakes, you will be able to see them and you will not be bitten."

Hearing what he said, most of the people calmed down and acted according to his words. When they ran out, they were not gathered together, but dispersed. Qu Linjiang also stood beside him a few times. One of them, including Gu Mingxuan, made Qu Linjiang feel very lucky, so he said to Gu Mingxuan: "Miss Guan seems to be unable to walk quickly, so please be careful, after all, there will always be some people in the field. The unevenness."

Gu Mingxuan naturally didn't want to hurt others with nice words, so she nodded and thanked: "Thank you, Mr. Qu, for reminding me."

The voice was pleasant, like a clear spring, Qu Linjiang was a little happy, smiled at Gu Mingxuan, and then volunteered to open the way ahead with a whip.

Gu Yuwen glanced at it, feeling a little annoyed in her heart.

However, there were too many people, and it was inconvenient to reveal anything, so they quietly followed the crowd to the bluestone slab, and then slowly gathered together.

At this moment, Qu Linjiang retreated very politely, only letting them go down the mountain slowly.

"Thank you, Young Master Qu."

"Thank you Mr. Qu..."

"Mr. Qu, thank you very much."

Then someone started to thank Qu Linjiang, and Gu Mingxuan followed Daliu to thank him, and then planned to walk down the mountain slowly.

"Miss has poor legs and feet, why don't you come here on a horse and let your maid lead the horse down the mountain?" Qu Linjiang couldn't help but said in order to deepen his impression in Gu Mingxuan's heart.

Gu Mingxuan wanted to decline, but Gu Mingling quickly agreed.

Because everyone was frightened, Mrs. Sun hurriedly arranged for people to boil Anshen soup and let them rest after drinking. As for the Changxuan in the middle of the mountain, they also sent people to clean it up, and called the head of the village to reprimand and beat them.

Zhuangtou just felt very wronged, obviously nothing like this happened before, why this year... But, he can only admit that he was unlucky.

Gu Mingxuan also drank the Anshen Tang, and then lay down on the bed to rest. Her legs had been walking for a long time, and her knees would be aching. In addition, when she was bumped by Gu Mingzhi and almost fell, she used her strength to stand still, so , so he could only rest in bed, Du Juan sat beside him, applying medicine for Gu Mingxuan, and talking to Gu Mingxuan at the same time.

Gu Mingxuan gradually became sleepy, but before she fell asleep, she felt that today's incident really made her feel uncomfortable—snake, snake again, really troublesome.

When she woke up, it was already time for fainting, and Gu Mingxuan didn't bother to go to pay her respects, so she was reported to be unwell. Cui's family and Sun's family sent someone to look at her, and asked her to rest, so she didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Du Juan said that a wife of Commander Lu's family came to apologize today and apologized for Miss Lu's recklessness. gift.

Although the Lu family is also a military general, they are not nobles. Moreover, they are all people who hold military power. If they get too close, it is easy to attract the suspicion of the emperor. Therefore, the two families did not communicate before. This time, the Lu family sent a He apologized generously, and Mrs. Sun accepted the apology. Afterwards, they said a few polite words and dispersed.

Gu Mingxuan smiled, listening to Du Juan's words, she knew that that lady loved Miss Lu very much, which made her a little envious.

Forget it, envious of what other people do... Gu Mingxuan shook her head, ordered someone to set out a meal in the room, ate some casually, and then went to bed to rest.

Gu Mingling felt a little guilty, so she came to find Gu Mingxuan after dinner, talked with Gu Mingxuan, and apologized that she shouldn't have dragged her up the mountain knowing that her elder sister's leg was not healed.

"I want to see it myself, otherwise, you can't force me, can you? Second sister, don't be sad, I'm just a little tired, just take a rest." Gu Mingxuan comforted Gu Mingling, Gu Mingling's temperament is relatively simple , and soon put this matter behind him, and talked about Qu Linjiang again.

"That Mr. Qu is quite courageous. He's not like an ordinary scholar who would fall when the wind blows." Gu Mingling commented, Gu Mingxuan smiled, noncommittal, Gu Mingling talked happily for a while, seeing that it was not early, then went back .

On the second day, Cui Shi and others set off to go back, but Gu Mingxuan stayed in the villa because of the injury on her leg. Gu Mingling wanted to stay with Gu Mingxuan, but Sun Shi was not happy. After that, it was said that it was the most important time for Mrs. Sun to show Gu Mingling, so it was understandable that Mrs. Sun did not want Gu Mingling to stay, so Gu Mingxuan persuaded Gu Mingling to go back with her.

After everyone had left, Gu Mingxuan let out a breath, and felt extremely refreshed——Since waking up, this was the first time for her to stay alone without anyone coming back to disturb her, so she felt very comfortable.

As for some minor inconveniences in life, Gu Mingxuan didn't feel much about it.

Four days later, Gu Mingxuan finally felt better and planned to leave for home.
