happy match

Under the bright candlelight, Ye Qinglan leaned leisurely on the thick pillow, with a leisurely attitude, as if what she just said was just an ordinary thing.

But Ruixue's complexion was complicated and subtle. After hesitating for a moment, she said in a low voice: "Miss, if Miss Six finds out about this, I'm afraid she will be unhappy..."

"That's why I let you go." Ye Qinglan said lightly: "Remember, inquire quietly, and don't let people think of me. Also, don't let Hongyu and the others know, and don't talk about longan for the time being." It's not that you can't believe it. Longan, it's just that she is still young and has a straightforward personality, so she can't hide her words at all.

Ruixue collected herself and responded in a low voice.

This is the first errand assigned to her by the master, and she has to do it safely no matter what.

All night, Ruixue was thinking about how to proceed with this matter.Gu Xinian is so famous, there should be many people who know him.It is a bit difficult to choose one who knows a lot and loves to gossip.

She is not a child of the mansion, and has been with her master in the capital for less than a month, and spends almost all day in the yard, unfamiliar with the personnel and affairs of the mansion.Where can I find such a person?

Besides, she must find a suitable excuse to inquire...

Ruixue racked her brains all night, and finally came up with a solution, and she fell asleep peacefully when it was almost dawn.

The next day, Ye Qinglan got up as usual to greet Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Jiang.Naturally, Ruixue will accompany her.

Because Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning are close, it is natural for Ruixue to stay with Zhixia.Standing next to her were Ruyue, the eldest maid beside Eighth Miss Ye Qingrou, and Dongyan, the eldest maid beside Zheng Shi.The four servant girls are neat and tidy, and they all look very outstanding.

If you compare them carefully, Zhixia is the most beautiful and smart.The most dignified and steady one is Dongyan, and Ruyue is also born very well, but the big eyes are very flexible, a little less calm.Ruixue knew that she was doing well, but in front of these three maids, she couldn't have any confidence.

Ruixue has been in Changyuan Bo's Mansion for so long, and these three people are the most familiar.

Zhixia is Ye Qingning's personal maid.Naturally not a good candidate.Dongyan's temperament is calm and he doesn't speak much, even if he asks, he probably won't be able to ask anything.After much deliberation, I can only start from Ruyue.

Kisaragi stood there for a long time, she probably wanted to go to the toilet, so she backed out quietly.

Ruixue took a peek at the void, and also quietly retreated out.Waited a moment.As expected, Ruyue slowly came over.Rui Xue greeted her with a smile, and said in a low voice: "The masters are talking, and they probably won't leave for a while, the two of us just stay here for a while to get some air."

This remark was exactly what Kisaragi wanted, and she agreed with a smile.The two stood in the corridor, chatting a few words without meaning.

Ruixue was thinking about how to open her mouth.Hearing Ruyue chuckle in a low voice: "It was an eye-opener yesterday at Duke Dingguo's mansion. I've heard of the reputation of Mr. Gu Si before, and this is the first time I've seen his real face with my own eyes! Sure enough He is extremely handsome. The young masters in our mansion are not bad, but they are far behind him."

Sure enough, he is a gossiper.

Ruixue was overjoyed, and nodded in agreement pretending to be concerned.A girl's yearning flashed in her eyes: "If I have the opportunity to serve such a master in this life, it would be worthwhile to come to this world for nothing."

There was a lot of meaning in what she said, and Ruyue giggled immediately: "Don't be delusional. Even Mr. Gu doesn't like someone like Miss Six, let alone the master of the two of us." Speaking of The last sentence.A trace of contempt was accidentally revealed in his eyes.

Most of the maids have to rely on their masters if they want to get a good job.The master is married well.It is not difficult for a personal servant girl to find a good future.In this way, she has some chances.

But Ruixue was different.There is such a sick master on the stall, and he is a concubine from the third house, even if he is quick-tempered and quick-spoken, he has no backing after all.What kind of family she will marry in the future...it's hard to say.

Ruixue saw the scorn in Ruyue's eyes clearly, and a surge of anger rose in her heart.He forced himself to restrain himself, and said with a calm smile: "Sister Ruyue, you seem to know a lot about this Mr. Gu!"

"Of course." Ruyue blinked triumphantly: "I have served the old lady before, and I have heard many secret stories about the aristocratic families in the capital."

Ruixue looked at Ruyue anxiously: "Good Ruyue, can you tell me something. I'm really curious about this Mr. Gu." The look of eager anticipation greatly satisfied Ruyue's vanity.

Ruyue rolled her eyes, and said with a teasing smile: "You little hoof, you just saw it once, and you gave your heart away. I advise you to stop this thought as soon as possible. I don't know how many people admire the fourth young master Gu, Where is your turn."

Ruixue was ridiculed and suffocated, but she still kept a smile on her face. After dawdling for a long time, Ruyue finally said everything she knew:

"Mr. Gu ranks fourth in Dingguo's mansion, and he has two cousins ​​and one cousin. He was gifted and intelligent since he was a child. He could read and write at the age of four, write poems and paintings at the age of eight, and passed the entrance examination at the age of 12. He passed the No.1 provincial examination and is famous in the capital. I don’t know how many noble ladies secretly admire him. Even Luo Miaoyin, the daughter of Prime Minister Luo, admires him. However, he is not moved. Do you know why? Because he likes She is a distant cousin who grew up with her childhood sweetheart..."

Ruixue perked up, pricked up her ears, and wrote down word by word what Ruyue said.

Just as they were talking, Zhixia came over and saw the two of them loafing in the corridor, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "I've caught you two. If you don't go in to serve, how dare you goof off here and chat? to sue you."

Ruixue's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Ruyue might say something that shouldn't be said, she hurriedly said: "We'll go in right away." She casually pulled Ruyue and walked in.

Zhi Xia didn't become suspicious at all, just smiled and left.

With the news she just heard in her arms, Ruixue couldn't help feeling a little excited.Ye Qinglan seemed to have noticed something, and glanced at Ruixue calmly.

Ruixue quickly understood what the master meant, and hurriedly lowered her head.He secretly planned in his heart that he would find time to tell Ye Qinglan about this after leaving Changhe Hall.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Jiang left Ye Qinglan and others to have lunch in Changhetang today.

Ye Cheng didn't come back at noon, they were all female relatives.Ordinary family banquets are not so particular, and there are no seats. The old and young sit around a table, which is very lively.

Mrs. Jiang sat at the head, and Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Li sat beside her.Ye Qingning was next to Zheng's, followed by Ye Qinglan.Ye Qingrou sat beside Li Shi.

Cui Wan didn't sit down, she stood beside Zheng Shi with a smile and prepared vegetables for Zheng Shi.

Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "Okay, don't stand here, sit down and eat hot food, or the food will be cold later. Let Dongyan do these things."

Cui Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "It's better for me to come."

Zheng Shi didn't say anything anymore.Cui Wan waited until Mrs. Zheng put down her chopsticks, then hurriedly sat down and ate a few mouthfuls casually.At this time, the food is cold, and the taste is inevitably inferior.Cui Wan was smiling all the time, with no trace of dissatisfaction on her face.Obviously used to it.

Looking at the usual expressions of everyone present, they are obviously very used to it.

Although Ye Qinglan felt uncomfortable looking at it, she had no right to say anything, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: being a daughter-in-law is much harder than being a daughter.

Cui Wan came from a famous family and was the eldest daughter of the eldest son, so why isn't she held in the palm of her hand like a treasure at home?She can be a daughter-in-law, but she has to abide by a bunch of rules, and she has to be more cautious in doing things, and there can be no mistakes.

Judging from the contact in the past few days, Cui Wan, the eldest daughter-in-law, behaved well in front of Zheng Shi, and she didn't even dare to make a joke easily.It can be seen from this that it is really not easy to be a daughter-in-law...

Jiang was used to taking a nap, and after lunch, they chatted casually, and everyone dispersed.

Ye Qingning still remembered what he promised Ye Qinglan yesterday, and said with a smile: "Didn't you say you wanted to practice the piano with me? It just so happens that Mrs. Zeng came over today, so you can go back to Huancui Pavilion with me now."

Ye Qinglan nodded with a smile.

Ye Qingrou heard the conversation between the two with sharp ears, and looked at Ye Qinglan with envy and jealousy.She has always envied Ye Qingning to be taught by a famous piano teacher like Mrs. Zeng, and she has expressed her desire to learn piano together more than once.But Ye Qingning was always indifferent.It's a good thing now, to agree to Ye Qinglan so easily...

Ye Qinglan turned a blind eye to those two cold gazes, and left with Ye Qingning with a smile.Zheng looked at the figures of the two who were not hiding their intimacy, with a thoughtful look on their faces.

Cui Wan knew Zheng's temper well, so she smiled intentionally or unintentionally: "Since the tenth sister stayed in the mansion, Qing Ning has become much more lively than before."

Yes, no matter what, it is always true that Ye Qingning is more lively and happier than before.Even if she knew Ye Qinglan was trying to please her, why bother?

Mrs. Zheng smiled, and suddenly said something meaningful: "You are kind to Sister Lan." Cui Wan wouldn't be so nice to someone for no reason!

Cui Wan saw that she couldn't hide it from Mrs. Zheng, so she didn't hide it either, and said with a low smile, "I can't hide anything from you. The last time my grandfather had a birthday party, my mother came to celebrate her birthday. When I met Sister Lan, I had a good impression of her. I also want to take advantage of this time to observe her character well!"

A wise man does not need to speak too clearly.Zheng Shi immediately heard the string song and understood the elegant meaning, and smiled silently.As expected, she guessed correctly, Cui Wan was for the unmarried concubine younger brother in the family...

"You have to think it over. If you really mean it, you should discuss it with your third uncle earlier." Zheng naturally omitted Xue's mention.

With Xue's temper, how could she be willing to give such a good marriage to Ye Qinglan, I'm afraid that once she hears the news, she will brag about Ye Qingfu.

Cui Wan heard Zheng's implication, and nodded with a smile.After thinking about it, he said in a low voice, "Speaking of this, I have something to discuss with you."
