The Royal's Cute Little Wife Chapter 99

Madam Leng and Xie Liqing had thought that Gu Yi was a talented young man with a bright future. Adding to that, his father was the Grand Secretariat to the current head of the Cabinet, so if the two families could get married, that would be for the best.

It was just that they did not know how Xie Xun thought about it.

Although the marriage needed the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, both of them hoped for the happiness of their children. Therefore, they respected the views of their children more in matters of marriage, unlike the other families. Once, Madam Leng called Xie Xun into the house and asked indirectly, "Are you on good terms with Grand Secretariat Gu's daughter, Gu Ruyi?"

Xie Xun nodded without thinking, "Sister Gu treats me very well."

Madam Leng made an "oh" sound, then turned and asked: "You have been to Grand Secretariat's mansion a few times, have you seen her brothers and sisters?"

Xie Xun heard her talking to Xie Liqing a few days ago and immediately guessed what she wanted to ask. Xie Xun lowered his head and stared at the Begonia Silk Embroidered Shoes at his feet, and stammered, "No … "Never seen him before."

Unfortunately, her tone was too guilty, Madam Leng could tell that she was lying immediately.

"Really?"

She thought about it, shook her head, then nodded, "I've seen Sister Gu's two younger sisters …"

had indeed only seen Gu Ruyi's sister, and had never seen Gu Yi before. The reason she felt guilty was because of that … It was because she suddenly remembered that Gu Ruyi had asked Gu Yi to draw a picture of her. The color of the bamboo was evergreen and it was hung around her room as a decoration.

She was afraid that after Madam Leng found out about this, she would be even more committed to bringing her and Gu Yi together.

She wasn't prepared at all …

Madam Leng touched her head and suddenly asked: "Did you hear what I said to your father last time?"

Xie Xun was stunned, she raised her head and asked hesitantly, "How do I know?"

Originally, Madam Leng was only guessing, but her performance was so obvious, which further confirmed Madam Leng's thoughts. Madam Leng's lips curled up into a smile, as if she was an obedient daughter. "That day, Senior Servant Lu came to the main house to deliver the dumplings, saying that you were the one who had personally wrapped them. I thought that if you did it personally, you would definitely have brought it here personally … But you weren't there. I asked Lu mama and she said you left early. This is the only reason why Mother thinks so much. "

Xie Xun bit her lips and did not say a word.

"You're not satisfied with Eldest Young Master Gu?" Madam Leng said gently.

She shook her head, "No... I just don't know what kind of person he is. " Pausing, she said listlessly, "I can't bear to part with my mother and father."

The Madam Leng smiled, "Do you think this mother can bear to part with you? Your sis has only just married someone, if you were to marry someone else, there wouldn't even be someone by my side who would be able to talk to me. "

She told her that she was only going to choose a good marriage for her. As for when she would get married … He definitely had to wait for her at her fifteenth birthday.

She calmed down.

The Madam Leng also talked about how great Young Master Gu was. He was a talented man, and there were many girls in the capital who secretly admired him. He also said that this person was humble and gentle, warm as jade, how good was that? was a little curious about this person, and did not reject him as much as before.

Under Madam Leng's words, Xie Xun obediently mentioned that Gu Yi had asked her to draw for her. Until now, he had not taken back that painting.

Madam Leng did not think for nothing the entire night, she immediately said to her: "Tomorrow, Ronger will go to Grand Secretariat's mansion to pay respects to Young Master Gu, and bring the painting back for you."

Although he said that he wanted Xie Rong to take the painting, there was actually another important reason. That was to let Xie Rong see this person's personal character and character, and whether or not he was truly as perfect as the rumors said.

Xie Xun went out very early in the morning.

Xie Rong did not bring many people with him, but brought two servants with him, riding on horses to the Grand Secretariat's mansion. After informing servant of his purpose at the door, he went in to report and quickly returned to invite him in.

Gu Yi lived in a courtyard in the southwest side of Grand Secretariat's mansion. Outside of the pavilion, there was a patch of bamboo. The wind blew through the bamboo forest, causing the leaves to rustle. Xie Rong was not very familiar with this place. He had met Gu Yi a few times before, but they had never gotten to know each other well.

servant led him through the bamboo forest, and indicated to the inside: "My young master is inside. Thank you young master."

Xie Rong took two steps forward, and saw a figure under the tree in front of him. He had his back to him and was dressed in a moon-white garland of lotus flowers. There was a jade guqin in front of him and his fingers were placed on the strings. Slowly, a melodious melody flowed out. Xie Rong, who was standing behind Gu Yi and listening to his melody, walked forward and said, "After reaching the level of proficiency in literature, your zither arts are also excellent."

He stood up and looked behind him, meeting Xie Rong's pair of eyes that were as calm as water, and said with a smile: "So it's Yongchang, I didn't know you were coming to visit me, I didn't welcome you from afar, didn't welcome you from afar."

With that, he hurriedly invited servant to pour some tea and invited Xie Rong to sit behind the square table in front of him.

Gu Yi was indeed as rumored, elegant, gentle, and without any airs. He sat across from Xie Rong and personally poured a cup of tea for him. "I was just excited, so I casually played a song and made you laugh." The tea broth flowed out from the spout of the pot, and the aroma of the tea a.s.saulted his nostrils.

Although the two of them did not have much to do with each other, they could still exchange a few words. Gu Yi's personality was the complete opposite of Xie Rong. He had a easy-going personality and was able to speak a few words to anyone, whereas Xie Rong rarely spoke, and rarely took the initiative to speak with him. Two equally handsome and elegant young masters were sitting under a tree. One of them was smiling while the other was silent. If a chessboard was placed in the middle of the two, it would give them a sense of beauty.

Xie Rong did not forget what the Madam Leng had told him. After speaking for a while, he asked, "My sister said that you drew a Bamboo Cloud Evergreen Map for her. She asked me to take it back for her. "

If he hadn't said it, Gu Yi would have forgotten.

He had finished completing the painting, but no one came to retrieve it. He gradually forgot that if it wasn't for Xie Rong's visit today, it would probably still be in his study. Gu Yi sent servant to the study room to retrieve the painting, and said humbly, "There are some flaws in the painting, I hope your sister won't be offended by it."

Xie Rong smiled and said that he wouldn't.

Not long after, the servant returned with a troubled expression and said, "Young Master … This little one found it according to what you said, but was unable to find it. "

Gu Yi frowned slightly. "You didn't find the wrong place?"

servant was unsure, "There shouldn't be …"

Why should I?

Gu Yi could not explain the situation to him, so she got up and followed him to the study room. She got up and apologized to Xie Rong, "I will have to trouble you to wait here for a while, Yongchang."

After Gu Yi left, Xie Rong sat down beside the tree.

He poured another cup and was about to drink it when someone tapped on his shoulder from behind and said with a smile, "Big brother is once again lazy and doesn't want to read. Be careful, I might go tell Abba and have him punish you with three articles!"

When he put down the cup and turned around, the person behind him suddenly froze.

Gu Ruyi originally came to find Gu Yi, it was not an urgent matter, she just wanted to borrow a few books from him. He had a lot of books here, and many of them were solo books that could not be found by the common folk. She would usually borrow any book she wanted to read from him. Today, as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw a person sitting under a tree. She could only see the figure of a person sitting under a tree, and her eyes could only see the figure of a person sitting under a tree, and could only see a person sitting under a tree, and could only see a person sitting under a tree. When she put her hand on his shoulder and waited for a response, she knew something was wrong.

Sure enough, he slowly turned his head, revealing a side face as cold as jade. Behind him was a lush wutong tree and a heptachord, it should have been a gentle and lovable picture scroll, but it was forcefully forced back by his elegant and cold bearing, turning into a scene separated by a mountain and a river.

He turned his head and his eyes fell on her unstoppable smile. "Brother?"

Gu Ruyi stiffly retracted his hand, and retracted the smile, "So it's Young Master Xie … I thought you were my big brother, don't take offense to your actions. "

She quickly returned to her usual state, returning to the graceful and graceful Lady Gu in front of her. Her smile was just right on the corner of her lips, but when her eyes met his, they shifted away in embarra.s.sment. She had the servant maids behind her bring her a veil and put it on right in front of his face to hide half of his face and also the birthmark under his eyes.

Xie Rong didn't say anything when he saw her actions, and calmly waited for Gu Yi to return.

The two of them did not speak, and it was very quiet for a moment.

As the host, Gu Ruyi naturally had to act as the host. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Thank you, young master, for coming to find my brother?"

Xie Rong nodded his head, "Since the day before yesterday, Zhan Zi had given him a painting as a gift, and then went to the study to retrieve it."

Gu Ruyi immediately understood which painting it was and she was the one who asked for it for Xie Xun. had never come to take it since a while ago and she thought that they would not want it.

She also wanted to go to the study, but if she left, he would be the only one left. But she stayed behind. She didn't know what to say, so when she talked to Xie Rong, although he would answer her, he couldn't finish her words. Seeing that the tea in the pot was gone, she got servant maids to boil a fresh pot of tea, and also asked Xie Rong: "Thank you, Young n.o.ble, why did you come here to pick up the painting today?"

He said, "My mother told me to come."

"Do you like painting too?"

"Not too bad."

"I haven't been able to find an opportunity to thank Young Master Xie for what happened last time... "It's all thanks to you …" She was referring to the night before the Chinese New Year when she was taken lightly by the drunkards.

Xie Rong's lower his eyes, was still the same calm and indifferent tone: "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

"..."

The conversation could not go on, just as Gu Ruyi could not take it anymore and wanted to escape halfway, Gu Yi finally returned from the study. In his hand was a long box, he walked to Xie Rong and took out a scroll painting and slowly opened it, "I've finally found it, thank you young master for taking a look."

The green bamboo in the painting slowly appeared in front of his eyes. It was like a pearl swaying in the wind, bent by the wind, only leaving behind the rustling of the leaves. Separated by the painting, one could almost hear the rustling of bamboo leaves. It was vivid and lifelike, causing one to exclaim in admiration.
