Chapter 116

Wan Hou cried loudly in the room, "I don't want to be separated from brother Yun, don't go to the capital, don't want to be a show girl!"

Before Yingniang and Boming entered the courtyard, they listened to this.

Li Changan said in a deep voice: "Then do you want parents? Both parents want to go."

Hou Hou's crying stopped suddenly, she paused for a while, and then she cried even harder, almost breaking her heart.She doesn't understand feelings, but she is terrified of brother Yun who is leaving her.

But she didn't want to leave her parents either, so she broke down in tears and said: "Don't go either!"

Li Chang'an let out a long sigh, "I can't do it if my parents don't go. The emperor has good intentions. If the Li family refuses to accept the love, the emperor will definitely think that the Li family has resentment in their hearts all these years. This love will be accepted even if they don't accept it. Could it be that the Li family is so bold? How dare you not even pay attention to the kindness given by the emperor?"

When Yingniang and Boming came in, they saw Aunt Yao was thinking about something.She looked up, "Yingniang, Boming, I was just going to find you, and I want to ask you something."

Aunt Yao saw that Wanhou was in front of her, she couldn't speak directly, so she called Yingniang and Bo Ming into another room, and whispered: "Although Wanhou still doesn't understand her feelings for Yun'er, my mother I have seen it for a long time, and know that she cannot do without Yun'er. I want to entrust Wanhou to you and let her live in your house first. Yun'er is a responsible man, and when Wanhou grows up, he will Marrying her, I'm relieved. If their business fails, Chang'an and I will send someone to pick her up. Chang'an and I will not go to the capital, the emperor cannot afford to offend, let alone we have to thank you. As for Houhou I don’t want to be a show girl, I’ll think of a way after I go to the capital with Chang’an.”

Yingniang then told Aunt Yao what she had discussed with Bo Ming, and Aunt Yao frowned slightly, "We really have a deep friendship, and we can always think of going together when things happen. As the king of a country, the emperor should not To make people do unkind and unrighteous things for the sake of a wan hou. It's just... I don't know how Yun'er treats wan hou..."

This is what Aunt Yao is most worried about, Wan Hou is her heart, if this is just a hot topic in the Li family, and Yun'er doesn't take it to heart at all, she and Li Chang'an are worried about letting Hou Hou stay anyway.

Bo Ming smiled, "Aunt Yao, don't worry. Just now, under the pressure of me, Ji Wang, and Jin Ling, Yun'er has become enlightened. Seeing him like that, he will definitely be willing to marry Hou Hou. "

Aunt Yao was happy when she heard it, but sad on the other hand, "In this case, Wan Hou really wants to stay."

Yingniang and Boming sat down to comfort her, anyway, the girl is going to get married, it's just that she left her parents a few years earlier.

After Qing'er hid in her own room, she couldn't help it. She came to the window, only showing half of her face, watching the movement in the yard.

"Brother Gu, sit down quickly, you must be thirsty along the way." Nian'er stretched her slender fingers into a porcelain vessel, grabbed out a small handful of tea leaves, and skillfully brewed a cup of tea for Gu Xing.

Gu Xing put down his skirt, sat down firmly, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you in a year, and you are as tall as me."

His voice was so clear and honest that it made Qing'er's heart pounding when she heard it in the room.She secretly looked at Gu Xing's sharp-edged face, deep eyes, and vigorous figure. She looked like a calm and responsible man, without a hint of elegance in his atmosphere.

Just looking at him secretly like this, Qing'er felt that she was so nervous that she was about to suffocate.She sneaked another glance at her brother, and felt that compared to Gu Xing, her brother was a completely different man.Her elder brother looks a little fairer, and he is in high spirits and heroic, giving people a feeling of elegance and elegance.

Gu Xing, on the other hand, was heavy, steady, and restrained.Seeing him, Qing'er's heart skipped a beat, but she felt an inexplicable sense of steadfastness.

At this time, the corners of Nian'er's mouth turned up slightly, and with a smile, he said to Gu Xing: "I am nineteen years old, when will I not grow taller? It’s been a year. Quickly tell the inside story, is the county magistrate in Zhuang County a corrupt official?”

Gu Xing pursed his lips and smiled, "He really wants to be greedy, but since I'm always by his side, he doesn't dare to make a move. He wins me over and over again, and wants me to join him in the same way, do you think I can do it?"

Nian'er suddenly approached him, and whispered something in his ear, the two of them laughed in unison.

Gu Xing laughed, took a sip of his tea, and said, "He really thinks I'm a nerd, even though I didn't use the bad tricks you just said, I still managed to kill him. He did it by spending money. The county magistrate recommended to be the magistrate is very dull-witted."

Nian'er was still full of smiles, "You are a meritocracy, you dare to punish the county magistrate, it's absolutely amazing. By the way, how much is the meritorious service's monthly salary, and have you paid off all your family's debts?"

Gu Xing said lightly: "A tael of silver per month, plus a bucket of grain, should be able to pay off my father's debts in two years."

Thoughts paused for a moment, but I have ten taels of silver in my monthly pocket money.

After Gu Xingzhong got the exam, his father and the villagers got into a fight for water and irrigation, and he was ordered to pay the injured family a large sum of money, and he could no longer take part in the imperial examination, because he had no way out, so he could only be a meritocracy That's all.

Gu Xing has never been willing to accept Nian'er's help, whether it is money or favors, he insists on not granting it.Even if Nian'er came to help him secretly through other channels, Gu Xing would be able to see through it at once. What a smart person he is, Nian'er can't play with him.

In order not to hurt each other's feelings and harmony, Nian'er was helpless.

Nian'er turned away from mentioning this, and asked again: "You are already 22, don't you plan to get married?"

Gu Xing blushed slightly, "Let's think about it after I have paid off the family's debts."

Nian'er looked at him and smiled mysteriously, "Do you have someone in mind? Don't fool me!"

Gu Xing smiled, "You look like a playboy brother, and you don't even have a crush, and I naturally don't have one."

Nian'er raised her eyebrows, and said unconvinced: "I don't look like a playboy brother, it's too dishonest for you to put this name on me. Is there a playboy brother like me who never pays attention to girls?"

Gu Xing couldn't help laughing, "You haven't figured it out yet. Once you have a girl you like, you will definitely come forward to strike up a conversation."

Nian'er really thought about it decently, "Hmm... maybe."

He thought that Gu Xing must be hungry after coming all the way, so he shouted into the room: "Qing'er, bring out a plate of cakes for Brother Gu to eat."

Qing'er remained silent in the room.

"Huh? Qing'er, are you there?"

Nian'er thought she was not at home, so she had to come in to get it by herself, but she didn't expect to see Qing'er sitting in front of her desk neatly, with a flustered look on her face.

"Qing'er, didn't you hear me calling you so loudly? Brother Gu is here. Didn't you always love Brother Gu and call him Brother Gu? Why are you shy and refusing to go out today?"

Qing'er glanced at him, "Can you control it?"

Nian'er saw that her face was flushed, and she was flustered but still forced to be calm, and felt very strange.I have never seen her so charming like a woman, could it be...?
Nian'er came out with cakes, "Brother Gu, can you do me a big favor?"

Gu Xing ate the cake unceremoniously, "It's really rare, do you have anything else to ask me?"

Nian'er smirked and said: "There is a big girl in my family who can't get married, please take her in, lest my parents worry about her all day long."

The pastry in Gu Xing's mouth was stuck in his throat. Hearing what Nian'er said, he accidentally swallowed it whole, choking him so much that he picked up his teacup to drink water.When he was trying to tell Nian'er not to make such jokes in the future, Yingniang and Bo Ming came back.

Gu Xing used to be a frequent visitor to the family, and Yingniang and Bo Ming also liked him very much.There must be a lot to talk about in this meeting.

After chatting like this, it's natural to talk about marriage.

Suddenly, Yingniang felt a thrill in her heart.Is Qing'er's lover Gu Xing?If you think about it carefully, it can be matched everywhere.Gu Xing is not a man from a rich family, and he is indeed no worse than Nian'er.

Thinking about how Qing'er has never met many men, most of them are crooked or out of character, and Gu Xing used to come to the house often, besides him, who else can fascinate Qing'er?
Yingniang suddenly felt that she was really confused as a mother, because she hadn't seen Gu Xing for a year, she didn't even think about it.She made a look at Bo Ming, and Bo Ming realized it immediately.

Bo Ming wanted to test Gu Xing's intentions, so he joked: "Your parents have been worrying about you not being married, and my Qing'er is also worried about getting married. If you make a couple, it will make the two parents worry about you. It's all relieved."

Gu Xing was talking and laughing with everyone just now, but now he was silent, and then squeezed out an awkward smile, "I am not worthy of Shang Qing'er, she is talented and beautiful, and she must be worthy of a noble person. In fact, I have I have a crush, a girl from an ordinary peasant family in Zhuang County."

Nian'er was startled and said, "Huh? Didn't you just say you didn't have a crush, why did you turn around and you have one?"

Gu Xing blushed, lowered his head and said, "I was just embarrassed to tell you just now."

Originally, Qing'er was very happy, because she saw that Gu Xing had a hot fight with her family, and she liked to see him get along with her family in harmony.

But when Gu Xing said that she already had someone she likes, Qing'er's heart sank suddenly, her nose sore, and she bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from crying.

Gu Xing used to have dinner here every time he came here, and sometimes he would rest overnight before leaving.But because he inadvertently mentioned the matter between him and Qing'er, he euphemistically said that after returning to Yongzhen, he would not stay here for dinner before going home.

Both Yingniang and Boming are clear in their hearts, knowing that Gu Xing feels that he is not worthy of Qing'er, that he is not in the right family.
