Chapter 301 Proud

"Little fairy!" Suddenly, a sharp and excited female voice from the back of the crowd suddenly sounded.

A middle-aged woman pushed the people around and walked out of the crowd, walked straight to the old man, looked at Gu Yanfei standing on the steps with bright eyes, and recognized that the girl in front of her was the one from Chengtianmen. immortal.

"Old man, this is a little fairy." The middle-aged woman pointed at Gu Yanfei excitedly, her whole body was extremely excited, and said to the old man in gray, "Second girl Gu saved the eldest princess, and my family Shuanzi and others. The lives of many children!"

"Go home quickly, the little fairy has boundless mana, she must be right, your great-grandson may really have an accident!" The middle-aged woman kindly advised the old man.

She had gone to Chengtianmen with Scholar Zhang to file a complaint with the imperial court that day. She had seen Second Lady Gu exert her supernatural powers with her own eyes, and knew how powerful she was.

The words of the woman made the onlookers clamorous again, and everyone was a little unbelievable. Then, they whispered to each other, and their gazes towards Gu Yanfei became fiery.

The voices of discussion, speculation, and doubts from the crowd continued one after another:

"This...is this really a little fairy?"

"I also went to Chengtianmen that day. Looking at it now, this girl seems, seems, seems to be a little familiar."

"Really familiar."

"It turns out that the second girl from Gu Mansion is actually a little fairy!"

“…”

Some of the people in the crowd were already talking in a confused way, and some people couldn't help but feel a little nervous when they thought that they had just thrown a vegetable leaf to Gu's residence.

The atmosphere at the gate has developed from the original tense to another direction in less than half a cup of tea after Gu Yanfei appeared, and several people could not wait to kneel.

The old man in gray was extremely confused, and looked at Gu Yanfei with a stunned expression.

His gray eyebrows were tightly twisted into knots, and the wrinkles on his face deepened, and he was suspicious: just now, he scolded Gu Ce like this, this second girl is Gu Ce's own daughter, she would do this Kindly help yourself? !

The old man stared at Gu Yanfei, his turbid old eyes were a little sour, and he still suspected that she was cursing her great-grandson.

Gu Yanfei seemed to see his doubts, and added: "According to the hexagram, there is a river from your house to the south."

"Your great-grandson went to the river to catch fish, but was entangled in the river grass..."

said, Gu Yanfei sighed slightly.

"..." The eyes of the gray-clothed old man suddenly widened, the cloudy whites of his eyes were covered with red threads like spider webs, and his face was instantly pale.

Yes, there is indeed a river not far south of his house.

But how does this second girl know about this? !

She doesn't know him, nor where his home is, much less that his great-grandson had said in the morning that he wanted to eat fish...

Thinking of this, the grey clothed old man almost lost his mind, but in the blink of an eye, a fine piece of cold sweat oozes out of his forehead.

The others guessed it without asking, and one person said in shock, "Is the little fairy right? Is there really a river near the old man's house?"

The middle-aged woman wanted to persuade the old man a few more words, but she saw the old man with crutches and was about to leave in a panic.

"Old man stay, I'll let the mansion's carriage take you for a ride." Gu Yanfei called out to the old man, "You must get there before the sun rises."

The clever Kuanbi hurriedly went to order the concierge to prepare the carriage.

Everyone, including the old man, subconsciously raised their eyes to look at the bright sun in the blue sky above, only to feel that the scorching sun could not be looked directly at, and it was so dazzling.

The old man was still a little hesitant, but there were already several people beside him who hurriedly grabbed him and persuaded him, "Old man, how can you compare to a carriage when you walk on two legs? You should take the Gu family's carriage."

After a while, a green hooded carriage drove out from the corner gate of Gu Mansion, and another servant helped the unpossessed old man onto the carriage.

With the sound of the whip from the coachman, the carriage hurried along Yuanan Street...

The middle-aged woman and others who stayed behind looked at each other.

After the episode just now, the tense atmosphere of the sword, light and sword shadow at the beginning no longer existed. At this time, everyone looked at Gu Yanfei with extremely complicated eyes.

The one who broke the silence was Gu Yanfei, the girl's voice was cold and steady:

"My father is innocent!"

"Whether you believe it or not, just wait and watch."

"Don't be easily provoked by others!"

At the same time as she spoke, she slowly looked around at everyone, her pupils that were as clear as water were dark and glistening with a faint light.

Everyone fell silent.

Gu Yanfei said again: "As Gu Ce's daughter, I will definitely give Dajing an explanation."

This last sentence, she said it loudly and forcefully, without rushing or slow, without the slightest fluctuation in her tone, as if she had suppressed all her emotions.

She seemed calm, but only she knew that she was not so calm, and her throat was slightly choked.

Gu Ce's daughter.

Since    two lives, this is the first time she has said this sentence in front of so many people.

She is Gu Ce's daughter.

Her, proud of it.

Gu Yanfei's pupils flashed faint tears, turned around, and crossed the high threshold again.

"Squeak".

The red lacquer gate of Gu Mansion was slammed shut in front of everyone's eyes, and it was tightly seamed.

Since the Gu family was deprived of the marquis title, the brass door nails that used to represent the prince’s residence were no longer on the gate.

There was still a mess outside the gate, and the people surrounding the gate all stared blankly at the plaque and gate in front of them.

In the crowd, I don't know who said in a daze: "How about we go back? Wait first."

"Yeah, even if the imperial court wants to vindicate Gu... Hou Ye, that's only with real evidence." The middle-aged woman said with a stern look, she was convinced by Gu Yanfei, "Secret Gu is a little fairy who saves the suffering. , the little fairy should be able to see the causal determination."

Many people nodded frequently.

Suddenly, a young man in the crowd snorted angrily: "Gu Er girl is a god, but Gu Ce is her father, of course she has to help her father, otherwise, why would there be a saying called 'helping relatives is not good' help'."

Immediately, some people were shaken and felt that this sentence was reasonable. No matter how powerful the second girl was, people are selfish.

"Just now, Miss Gu asked us not to be provoked by others... Mistress, aren't you provoking?" The thin, gray-haired old woman looked at the young man who had just spoken with alertness.

The eyes of the others also looked at the young man in the cyan bunt, and they all became vigilant.

The young man's eyes wandered for a while, and he raised his neck and said, "What provocation?! I mean the truth."

"Wait!" The middle-aged woman strode closer to the young man, squinted at him, pointed to his nose and said with certainty, "Just now you said that Miss Gu is the daughter of a traitor, and you said that she has a father. There must be a daughter!"

When she said this, others also recalled it, and several people remembered and said: "By the way, it was him just now!"

"He also smashed that rotten egg just now."

“…”

These voices outside the mansion became more and more excited and high-pitched, and they also entered the Gu mansion intermittently.

Gu Yanfei on the other side of the door only paused for a moment, then walked forward, intending to return to Yuheng Garden and leave these people outside behind.

At this moment, she has completely recovered her composure, her eyes are as smooth as spring lake water.

"Second sister!"

In the distance, a girl in a goose-yellow skirt hurriedly approached her.

Gu Yunzhen trotted towards Gu Yanfei and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Gu Yunzhen grabbed Gu Yanfei's right arm and walked out of breath.

As soon as she heard the news, she rushed over.

"I'm fine." Gu Yanfei gave Gu Yunzhen a reassuring smile, "Everyone is gone."

Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yanfei up and down, and was relieved after making sure she didn't bump or touch any vegetable leaves or anything.

"I'm going to sit at your place." Gu Yunzhen smiled, holding Gu Yanfei's arm and walking towards Yuhengyuan.

The spring breeze came towards us, with the fragrant fragrance of spring flowers, gently brushing the fair cheeks of the two girls.

Walking all the way, talking and laughing all the way.

"Second sister," Gu Yunzhen said with a smile, "I originally planned to go to Yuheng Garden to find you, and I wanted to ask you, are you going to accompany you to Tianhe Garden on National Day?"

"Yes." Gu Yanfei said uncertainly.

"Ah!" Gu Yunzhen stopped and let out a low voice.

"..." Gu Yanfei blinked, confused.

"Then I have to hurry up and prepare the clothes and jewelry for you to wear that day." Gu Yunzhen said as he raised his hand to adjust the purple magnolia on his temples for Gu Yanfei. The girl's cheeks were as delicate as petals and creamy, as if a lotus flower. Can pinch out water, people are more delicate than flowers.

"No need." Gu Yanfei shook his head and said, "I have quite a lot of clothes. This season's spring clothes have just been made, so just pick one that has never been worn and wear it that day."

"The girl's family doesn't think there are too many clothes!" Gu Yunzhen said as a matter of course, with a bit of playfulness in his tone, and pointed out his sister's eyebrows and lightly nodded.

Then, she explained sternly: "Those newly made spring clothes are the usual clothes for you to wear at home, as long as they are comfortable and good-looking. How can you dress so plain and elegant when you go out to a banquet?"

Having said that, Gu Yunzhen also tugged at Gu Yanfei's snow-blue sleeves, telling her what "simple and elegant" is with an example.

Gu Yun really felt that his younger sister was really too careless. Which girl doesn't like beautiful jewelry, just her, except for the white jade plum blossom hairpin on her head, she didn't wear any gold and silver jewelry.

Gu Yanfei looked down at the cuffs embroidered with silver curly grass patterns, and thought: How simple is it?

These are new clothes made after the family split. She didn't care about it at all, but Gu Yunzhen did it herself. This dress, middle clothes, belts, and even embroidered shoes were all matched well, and even the embroidery pattern was chosen by Gu Yunzhen herself.

After thinking about it, Gu Yanfei didn't dare to say it. If he did, he might get another training.

She stuck out her tongue with a smile, and smiled cowardly.

"No." Gu Yunzhen said decisively, "Listen to me."

She made a gesture, and her maid Jade came over to listen.

"Go and call the lady in charge of Chengji Silk and Satin Village, Ruyizhai, and Yuyanji." Gu Yunzhen instructed.

It’s only been four or five days, and now it’s definitely too late for the sewing room in the house to make new clothes, so it’s better to find an outside shop to customize it directly.

In Gu Yunzhen's opinion, since the clothes have to be bought new, the matching jewelry must also be bought new.

Today's Gu Mansion is very lively, people come and go, and the shopkeepers who visited Gu Mansion afterward were all big bags and small bags, and they brought people and things. The outside vegetables, melon skin, rotten eggs, etc. have also been cleaned up.

There was a bit of a happy atmosphere up and down the house, which swept away the bad luck in the morning.

A roll of material is placed all over the eastern room of Yuheng Garden. The materials of Hang silk, brocade, Songjiang fine cloth, fine ge, silk, brocade and so on are colorful and dazzling.

Those little maids were even more excited than the masters, and they all helped to stir up the material together.

"Second sister, look at this roll of material, I think this roll of primrose has a good color. It's fresh and fresh, elegant and bright, and it reflects fair skin." Gu Yunzhen pulled up the corner of the roll of purple primrose-colored material and placed it on Gu Yanfei's neck. Compare with cheek position.

A capable woman in her early thirties, wearing a dark purple and dark Eight Immortal Hang silk jacket, stood aside and smiled, and hyped up the roll of material.

"Then this roll." Gu Yanfei nodded without hesitation, looked at the surrounding material for half a turn, pointed to another roll of tinted material and said to Gu Yunzhen, "Big sister, this tinted color suits you, like a beauty. Slightly drunk, Xiafei's cheeks."

Jade hurriedly took the roll of tinted material and said happily, "Second girl has such a good eye, this material is so beautiful, it is even brighter than the usual tinted color."

"..." Gu Yunzhen was hesitant, but felt reluctant to part with it: this kind of silk and satin is fragrant cloud silk from South Vietnam.

Gu Yun was really hesitant, and then he heard Gu Yanfei say to the capable woman: "Miss Manager Cheng, we want this roll too."

"Big sister," Gu Yanfei suggested happily, "you can do it too. Didn't you say that we will go to the suburbs for a spring outing on the next month's Shangsi Festival? We should dress beautifully for the Shangsi Festival. At that time, the two of us will be alone. Wearing a suit, others will see that we are sisters."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yun moved in his heart and carefully looked at the roll of tinted material.

This material is really beautiful, Yan Fei is obviously very discerning, but he is too lazy to dress up.

"Okay." Gu Yunzhen smiled and said cheerfully, "With the extra material, I can make some bibs for Qingguang."

This way, others can see that Qingguang is their cat!

Gu Yanfei: "..."

Gu Yanfei thought to himself: Forget it, big sister is just happy!

It was just a snap of his fingers, Gu Yunzhen designed several bibs for Qingguang in his heart, and he was even more excited. He turned his head to Mrs. Manager Cheng and said, "Miss shopkeeper, what seasonal tricks do you have recently?"

Mrs. Cheng, the shopkeeper, knew that the business was successful, and smiled like a flower, and quickly asked Embroidery to bring a book of embroidery patterns.

A few people gathered together, and the discussion lasted for an entire hour, picking embroidery patterns, picking color-matched materials, picking belts and silk sash patterns, and so on.

The people from Chengji Silk and Satin Village left on the front foot, and the people from Ruyizhai on the back came in in a row, each holding a tray with a lot of jewelry heads.

Before the two sisters started to pick, a woman rushed to report: "Second girl, Miss Wei Jiu and Miss Lu San have just arrived."

Gu Yanfei smiled and said, "Let's bring people here."

Juan Bi hurriedly went out to welcome the guests, but the old woman didn't step back, instead she showed a somewhat hesitant expression, hesitantly replied, "Also, the old man Zhang who was on crutches who came here in the morning is also here. ."

"Again?" Gu Yunzhen's smile faded instantly, his delicate crescent eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Yan Fei, I'll go take a look, you will entertain Jiao Niang and A Qin first."

After saying that, Gu Yunzhen was about to get up from the Luohan bed, but Gu Yanfei quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her back again.

"No, no, no." The old woman explained anxiously, "The old man said that he brought his great-grandson to kowtow to thank the second girl for saving her life."

Gu Yunzhen was stunned for a moment, his expression softened a little, and he said in his heart: This old man can be regarded as a person with clear grievances.

"Yan Fei, would you like to meet?" Gu Yunzhen turned to ask Gu Yanfei.

"No need." Gu Yanfei shook his head, his black and white eyes were transparent.

This old man Zhang has the pain of losing his son. The pain and hatred of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man is engraved in his heart, which cannot be resolved in a few words.

Today, she saved his great-grandson, which is a kind of kindness, but this kind of grace does not mean that the old grudges between the Gu family and him have disappeared.

Rather than forcing the old man to accept this favor, let him kowtow and settle the matter.

Facing Gu Yunzhen, Gu Yanfei said calmly, "I didn't save his great-grandson to repay him."

Gu Yunzhen was startled, then nodded gently and smiled: "That's right."

She couldn't help raising her arms and embraced Gu Yanfei in her arms, with a bright and soft smile, and sighed in her heart: Her second sister really has an exquisite heart.

When Wei Jiaoniang and Lu Qin entered the eastern time, what they saw was how the two sisters were snuggling together, Wei Jiaoniang happily flew over.

"I want to hug too!"

"And I!!"

Wei Jiao Niang, Lu Qin and the Gu family sisters laughed and hugged each other, and the girls played with each other for a while.

When the maids served tea, Lu Qin straightened up, straightened her hair, and said with a smile, "I told Jiao Niang just now that I saw Ruyi Zhai's carriage outside, and Jiao Niang didn't believe it."

"Look, I was right."

Lu Qin raised her finger and pointed at the jewelry in this room, raised her chest proudly and naturally, with high spirits, "Yan Fei, I'll help you choose jewelry, my eyesight is good!"

"My eyesight is good too!"

The two girls volunteered to help Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunzhen pick up the jewelry, talking and laughing.

"Yan Fei, I'll help you pick..." Wei Jiao Niang sat next to Gu Yanfei, saw that she had picked up a white jade bracelet from a certain tray, and shook her head, "This bracelet is not good-looking, it's too simple."

The jade bracelet in Gu Yanfei's hand was just an ordinary white jade bracelet, with no distinctive shape and average jade quality. It was the kind of jade bracelet that can be seen everywhere in the capital.

"It looks pretty good to me." Gu Yanfei slowly played with this unremarkable bracelet, his eyes were clear and bright.

She was not looking at the jade material of the bracelet, nor the shape of the bracelet, but the spiritual energy contained in it.

After being reborn for several months, this is the third piece of jade with spiritual energy she has seen.

Of course she wouldn't let go of such a rare treasure, she put the jade bracelet on her hand, and continued to admire it happily.

Wei Jiao Niang and Lu Qin looked at each other tacitly, and felt that Gu Yanfei was fine with everything, but he was too lazy to dress up, and the idea was simple and easy, so he could only tie his hair with a ribbon.

Forget it, pick jewelry or something, just wrap it on them!

Wei Jiao Niang and Lu Qin's eyes sparkled and their enthusiasm was high.

"Yan Fei, how about this string of gems? Look how bright these red coral beads are!"

"Yan Fei, this red gold dotted emerald inlaid ruby ​​butterfly bead flower is also very beautiful, small and delicate."

“…”

The four little girls were chatting and talking, and in just half an hour, they spent a lot of money to buy several boxes of jewelry.

After   , Gu Yunzhen instructed Pang Ma to take the people from Ruyi Zhai out.

Lu Qin excitedly said that she wanted to re-style Gu Yanfei's hair to match the new jewelry. Her hands were very dexterous, she combed a lily bun for Gu Yanfei, and also braided two small braids around her ears and combed them straight into the bun.

Wei Jiaoniang held her cheeks and watched Lu Qin comb Gu Yanfei's hair. From time to time, she took some bead flowers and sideburns from the jewelry box and made gestures, murmuring, "It seems that something is missing... By the way, yes. rouge!"

Wei Jiao Niang leaned over, stretched out her fingers and pinched Gu Yanfei's cheeks, her fingers were smooth and flawless, obviously without any rouge gouache.

"Yunzhen, have you bought rouge yet?" Wei Jiaoniang turned her head and asked Gu Yunzhen, "Yan Fei usually dresses up so plainly, wearing these new jewelry, it's best to put on some rouge gouache to look more gorgeous. "

"I also think that the second sister's dress is too plain." Gu Yunzhen nodded in agreement, "I even called someone from Yuyanji today, but they haven't come yet."

"Yuyanji's rouge is good!" Wei Jiao Niang said with a smile on her face, and she cast her teasing eyes at Lu Qin, who was still combing Gu Yanfei's hair, "A few days ago, Ah Qin just went to the shop to pick out rouge, and she picked it up. Several colors..."

Lu Qin was braiding her hands for a while, her face showing a bit of embarrassment, she said quietly, "A camellia red, this color is neither too bright nor too pink."

"A fiery garnet, and an orange."

Each is quite a gorgeous color, gorgeous to festive.

A thoughtful light flashed in Gu Yunzhen's eyes, and he asked with a smile, "Has Ah Qin decided on a marriage?"

Gu Yunzhen is good at observing words and expressions, and is a person with a keen mind. From Lu Qin's shy expression when he spoke, he could see some clues.

Lu Qin's face was stained with a little rouge-like red glow, she calmed down, and responded generously: "Yes."

Wei Jiao Niang looked at Lu Qin, whose cheeks were flushed, and laughed so hard that she got a blank eye from Lu Qin, her eyes seemed to say, Wei Jiao Niang, you will get married sooner or later.

Wei Jiao Niang raised her chin arrogantly and responded silently.

Lu Qin was a little speechless, she concentrated on braiding the last little braid, patted Gu Yanfei on the shoulder, and said crisply, "Okay!"

"Yan Fei, do you like it?!"

Kuan Bi hurriedly brought a mercury mirror, Gu Yanfei didn't look at the mirror in a hurry, but turned to look at Lu Qin, Liu's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and her cherry lips were slightly pursed.

Wei Jiao Niang could see clearly, her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help thinking of her aunt Wei Wan.

Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so Wei Jiao Niang asked bluntly, "Yan Fei, is there something wrong with A Qin's marriage?"

The end of the month, ask for a monthly pass~
