Chapter 302 Inappropriate

Lu Qin blinked slowly, originally unaware that Gu Yanfei's expression was wrong, but now she is also a little nervous.

"There's nothing really wrong, right?" Lu Qin looked at Gu Yanfei's dark eyes, couldn't help swallowing, and her heart was beating wildly.

Gu Yanfei stared at Lu Qin's beautiful face and asked straight to the point, "A Qin, who is your fiance?"

Without her orders, Ju Bi consciously sent all her servants out of the house.

There were only four of them left in the Toji Room.

Lu Qin rubbed a handkerchief, twisted and twisted the handkerchief, and said, "He is the nephew of my aunt's family, the eldest son of the Hua family, Hua Xi."

"What else?" Gu Yanfei asked again.

Lu Qin seemed to be recalling something, she bit her lower lip, and quickly continued, "I'm eighteen years old this year.

"The family arranged for us to see each other at Baiyun Temple. That day, a child accidentally fell into the water in the Hou Temple. He went into the water to save the child. I think he is a good person."

"The two just exchanged Geng posts two days ago."

Speaking of her fiancé, Lu Qin's eyes flashed with joy. On the one hand, she was happy, but on the other hand, Gu Yanfei's cautious expression made her feel uneasy: This marriage is not really wrong, right?

Wei Jiaoniang couldn't help but ask Lu Qin, "Didn't you always say you want to find a military general?"

Lu Qin really thought so, but people are not as good as heaven. When her parents asked her to go to Baiyun Temple to offer incense, she didn't expect it to be a blind date, and she didn't expect her to have a good conversation with each other, and she was very committed.

Lu Qin cleared her throat, made a serious appearance, and said, "Mother said that civil and military are not restricted, as long as people are nice."

"My aunt said that our two families know each other well, and we will be kissing each other in the future."

Gu Yanfei immediately asked the third question: "When will I order a small order?"

"Three days later." Lu Qin replied, "It's an auspicious day for the Hua family to ask someone to count."

The Lu family thought that the time was too hasty, but the Hua family said that the masters forget it, this day is a good day that is rare in half a year, and it is beneficial to the descendants.

It was only three days away from Xiao Dingli. Originally, the family would not let her go out because of her detention. Fortunately, Wei Jiao Niang went to pick her up, so her mother had to let her go.

Gu Yanfei still stared at Lu Qin's eyes for a long time before slowly saying, "You will die."

Her cold voice was like a bucket of ice water from the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month splashed on Lu Qin's head, making her feel a chill from head to toe, and it was refreshing.

Even the light in the room seems to have dimmed a lot, giving people a gloomy feeling.

"Aqin, hurry back to the manor and refuse this marriage." Gu Yanfei said again, "Immediately."

She will die? ! Lu Qin opened her mouth slightly, dumbfounded.

"Lu Qin, let's go!" Without waiting for Lu Qin to speak, Wei Jiao Niang stood up the fastest, took Lu Qin's hand and ran away, and then dropped a sentence at Gu Yanfei, "Yan Fei, I will come back to you later. ."

"Lu Qin, hurry up, hurry up." Wei Jiao Niang dragged Lu Qin to walk fast, the wind was blowing under her feet, and urged Lu Qin.

Lu Qin was still stunned, and was dragged by Wei Jiaoniang to run forward.

The two girls ran away in a hurry, and the door curtain was "swiped" by Wei Jiao Niang, and Gu Yun really wanted to send them off too late.

Looking at the trembling door curtain, Gu Yunzhen said uneasy: "Second sister, is this marriage really so bad? Ah Qin really..." Will she die? !

"Aqin's body is very heavy." Gu Yanfei said.

Yin Qi? Gu Yunzhen swallowed his saliva and felt a little hairy in his heart.

A breeze with the fragrance of flowers blew from the window, and the shadows of the trees swayed gently, making the faces of the sisters a little dignified.

"I can't tell you either." Gu Yanfei stroked his chin thoughtfully, frowning slightly, "This is the Yin Qi that belongs to the dead."

Gu Yanfei changed her posture again, holding her cheeks instead. After thinking and thinking, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and she sat up straight, "I know, the person who is engaged to A Qin should be dying."

"..." Gu Yunzhen heard the words, his eyes widened uncontrollably, he was really frightened, and even the hairs on his neck stood on end.

She almost blurted out "Really", but bit her lip anyway.

The second sister said so, it must be true.

Juan Bi felt a thrill in her heart: the marriage of the two families had just been decided, and the future husband would be gone, so the third girl would be regarded as a husband; The girl is young, doesn't she have to be a widow? !

"That Aqin..." Gu Yunzhen twisted his slender fingers, even more uneasy.

"The two families are just exchanging Geng Tie, it's still too late." Gu Yanfei couldn't help looking at the front curtain, looking at the mandarin ducks and water lilies embroidered on the curtain.

"Just don't get hired."

"Jubilee, ask someone to tell the concierge that Jiao Niang will come later, just let her in." Gu Yanfei ordered.

Kuanbi obediently responded, and also lifted the curtain and went out.

The room was extraordinarily quiet, and the thin wind rustled the trees outside the window.

Gu Yunzhen was still a little uneasy, still thinking about Lu Qin, when he heard Gu Yanfei casually asking her: "Big sister, didn't you say that you used a lot of goat milk in the kitchen last time? But did you find the problem? ?"

Speaking of this, Gu Yunzhen was refreshed, nodded and said, "I found it."

"A woman surnamed Peng in the kitchen admitted that she stole it, saying that she had just had a grandson in the family, and her eldest daughter-in-law had no milk, so she became greedy and stole goat milk."

"I verified that her daughter-in-law did give birth to a baby just last month, so she was fined half a year's monthly payment, and asked her to go to the garden instead to do the sweeping, and then asked her to send a jar of goat milk to Peng's house every day."

A job in the kitchen is a fat job that everyone thinks of, this Mrs. Peng's transfer from the kitchen to the garden is equivalent to a demotion, and the loss is not just half a year's monthly money, Gu Yunzhen punished her like this to set an example.

After talking about this matter, Gu Yunzhen thought of something, and there was a little hesitation on his face, "But..."

But what? ! Gu Yanfei was intrigued by her.

At this time, another gust of wind blew in from the window, with a few leftover leaves caught between the two sisters' skirts.

Gu Yunzhen pursed his lips, looked at the dancing flowers and trees outside the window, and then hesitantly said, "I heard the cry of a baby in the house lately at night..."

Gu Yanfei raised his delicate eyebrows.

They were the only two people living in the house, and naturally there were no babies.

Gu Yunzhen rubbed the handkerchief, and his gentle face showed a bit of uncertainty, he swallowed, and said slowly: "Three nights ago, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so I just got up and went to sleep alone. After a short walk in the garden, I heard the sound of a baby crying."

"I remember it was not long before the sound of the clapper on the fourth watch."

That night, the reason why she couldn't sleep was actually because she read the book before going to bed, and after she fell asleep, she was still thinking about the plot of the book, and she couldn't sleep.

Gu Yunzhen cleared his throat as if nothing had happened, and then continued: "Later I also told my mother about it, but my mother didn't believe it, she said it was a cat meowing, and she also said that it is spring, and the female cat is howling like this at night, listen. It sounds like a baby's cry."

So, even Gu Yunzhen didn't know if she had heard it wrong.

"Do you know where that voice came from?" Gu Yanfei asked thoughtfully, rubbing his chin.

Gu Yunzhen raised his hand and pointed in the direction through the window, "It's not far from the west gate of the small garden."

The small garden is located in the northwest corner of Houfu. Compared with the big garden, the location is too remote and the layout is small. There are not many people who go there on weekdays. Jiahuiyuan is backed by the small garden, only separated by a small bamboo forest.

"Later, I also looked in that direction during the day, and there was just a pavilion and a rockery. Thinking about it again, it's quite cold at night at this time of the year. If there are really small babies, I'm afraid they will freeze to death. "

"Maybe I really misidentified the cat's meowing..." Gu Yun smiled embarrassedly, and looked left and right, "Yan Fei, Qingguang is a female cat, I heard that the jade-faced raccoon is similar to the ground brocade. They are all female cats, has Qingguang meowing at night lately?"

The jade-faced raccoon is the elegant name for the three-flowered cat, and the Gudijin is another name for the tortoiseshell cat.

"..." Gu Yanfei's face showed an indescribable expression, and persuaded kindly, "Big sister, don't let Qingguang hear what you said."

She raised her right hand and made a claw scratching gesture, "It will scratch you!"

"Qingguang will not." Gu Yunzhen suddenly forgot about the baby's cry at night, and praised Qingguang eloquently, saying that it never bites, let alone scratches people, and even when cutting its nails, it is obedient...

"That's right!" Gu Yunzhen thought of something and patted his palm excitedly, "I got a small screen by chance, it's very cute, it's just right to put it beside Qingguang's cat litter."

"The long-haired jade-faced raccoon embroidered on the small screen looks like sunshine, and it is alive." Her maid Jade added jokingly beside her.

"Jade, go to Jiahuiyuan and fetch that small screen." Gu Yunzhen quickly ordered.

"Slave and Sister Jade will go together." Juan Bi also had bright eyes and volunteered to go out with Jade.

During the whole process, there was no room for Gu Yanfei to speak, but Gu Yunzhen was still gushing out: "Yan Fei, the screen embroiderer embroidered with a wonderful double-sided embroidery, especially good at embroidering cats and birds, I have seen it. There are several pieces of her embroidery, and the cat does embroider well."

"I'll ask her to embroider a few more jade-faced raccoon fans. You can also give them away... Everyone likes Qingguang, and they will definitely like that fan."

"..." Gu Yanfei felt that the cat was fortunately not there, otherwise, he would have been so proud that his tail would have been raised to the sky.

In the Dongji room, only Gu Yunzhen's cheerful voice was left, and there were occasional birdsong outside the window, which seemed to be playing and opposing.

The Yuheng Garden in the afternoon returned to its usual tranquility, until dusk. After the sunset, the Gu Mansion welcomed guests again—

Wei Jiao Niang is back again, but this time, she came alone.

"Yan Fei, Aqin was locked up by her mother." As soon as they met, Wei Jiaoniang pouted and complained angrily, "Mrs. Lu scolded her severely, saying that she was young The child's family is ignorant, and the two families have exchanged the geng posts, how can she say that she will break off the marriage and spread it out, and her reputation will be lost."

"Hey, we tried our best to persuade her and told her everything you said, but she didn't listen."

Wei Jiao Niang said angrily, so angry that the top of her head was smoking.

She had already said all she could, except she almost didn't tell her about her aunt and Xu Yan's family, but no matter what they said, Mrs. Lu Er scoffed, looking at them like she was looking at a rambunctious child .

Wei Jiao Niang took the warm tea handed by Kuan Bi and drank three cups in one go. She still felt aggrieved and muttered, "I used to think that A Qin's mother has a good temperament, better than my mother and my grandmother. It's much more gentle, I just found out today that she is so temperamental and so..."

After a pause, she considered a word: "Stubborn."

The word    is actually a euphemism.

Wei Jiao Niang let out a long sigh and glanced at Gu Yanfei with a complicated expression.

She actually hid some words and didn't say anything. When Mrs. Lu Er heard that it was Gu Yanfei who had warned them that they could not get married, she said some ugly words, yin and yang:

"It turned out to be the second girl from the Gu family. I don't know what she is thinking about, she has to ruin our sister Qin's marriage."

"It is pitiful that the Gu family loses the title, but this poor person must have something to hate. As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage. In order to take care of the family's future, she will be flattering everywhere, looking for trouble, and bad people's marriages, Not afraid of retribution.”

"Jiao Niang, I advise you to stay away from that Gu Er girl in the future, so as not to be spoiled by her."

Mrs. Lu Er's words were still in her ears, and at the moment, Wei Jiao Niang was so angry that she almost overturned the table, that is, looking at Lu Qin's face, she finally walked away.

Thinking, Wei Jiao Niang's anger came up again, and she gulped down the fourth glass of water.

Although Wei Jiaoniang didn't say anything, Gu Yanfei could tell from her face that Mrs. Lu Er's words would not be very pleasant.

"Yan Fei, what should I do?" Wei Jiao Niang stretched out **** and gently pulled Gu Yanfei's sleeve, she was very worried, "Mrs. Lu Er insisted that Huaxi is very good."

"She said that Huaxi was awarded the Juren at the age of sixteen. He was the first named Jie Yuan, with outstanding literary talent, and he also worshipped Wang Yi, a great scholar in Qingzhou, as his teacher. hope; saying that such a young person is a talented person, and his family background is innocent, and such a good son-in-law candidate can't be found even with a lantern."

"I listened to her tone and wished that Aqin and Huaxi could get married quickly, because I was afraid of missing this Chenglongjia son-in-law surnamed Hua."

Wei Jiao Niang frowned, and the Sichuan character lines on her eyebrows could catch mosquitoes, which was extraordinarily abrupt on her beautiful little face.

She stared at Gu Yanfei's face worriedly, and said, "Hua Xi sounds good, but I always feel that something is wrong, this marriage is too urgent..."

"Yan Fei, will this marriage really kill Ah Qin? Could it be that the surnamed Hua's wife is Ke?"

Wei Jiaoniang and Lu Qin were handkerchiefs who grew up together since childhood. Their friendship can be said to be like sisters. This afternoon, Wei Jiaoniang's heart was up and down.

"It's not that he beat his wife," Gu Yanfei said quietly, "It's Huaxi who is dying."

What? Wei Jiao Niang was frightened, she almost jumped up from the Luohan bed, walked back and forth, and said, "I'll go back and tell my mother, and let her persuade Er Madam Lu."

Wei Jiao Niang came to have a cup of tea and ran away like a gust of wind.

After returning to the mansion, she hurriedly went to Mrs. Wei Guogong Shizi, and told all about Lu Qin, thinking that if her mother came forward, Chang Anbo's mansion would always take some credit for the state's mansion.

Therefore, Mrs. Mrs. Wei Guogong, the prince, went to Chang'anbo Mansion in person early in the morning. Mrs. Lu Er graciously entertained her, and promised that she would let someone check the Hua family again.

After some polite and dignified response, Mrs. Lu Er sent her cronies, Mrs. Yang, to send away Mrs. Wei Guogong's heir. She said a lot of beautiful words, but she never agreed to quit her relatives.

After a while, Mama Yang came back alone to return to her life. Madam Lu Er, who had endured and endured, finally couldn't help complaining: "Hmph, a little girl said two or three words, and she could make Madam Shizi run in person."

Mother Yang poured tea and water for Mrs. Lu, and said with a smile: "That is, in the future, the third uncle will be the maiden's family, and she will be a leader at a young age, can you?"

"I can still harm my own daughter!" Mrs. Lu Er slowly removed the floating leaves from the tea soup with the tea cover, "That's my own daughter!"

"A woman's marriage is equal to her second reincarnation. I am just such a daughter. Of course, I hope she will have a smooth life in the rest of her life."

Mother Yang added with a smile on her face: "The third girl and the fourth young master have always been on good terms. If she knew that the fourth young master got such a good job, she would be happy."

Thinking of her son, Mrs. Lu Er's lips curled up and her eyebrows were soft.

They are the second house, not like the long house has a bright future. The uncle has left all the good errands to his son. Their second house can't even get the scraps. Her son Lu seems to be five in the past few years. City soldiers and Ma Si mess around.

This time, the eldest sister-in-law of her parents' family promised her personally. After the marriage is completed, their family will find a job for their son in the five military camps and hundreds of households.

"There's no such thing as a bad thing." The more Mrs. Lu thought about this marriage, the more satisfied she became, "It's great that Sister Qin can marry her aunt's family."

Mother Yang smiled and complimented again, saying what Mrs. Lu Er liked to hear.

At the end, she said again: "Second madam, don't worry, the third girl is young, she must have panicked because she was about to get married, so she was deceived by that second girl and confused her mind."

Mrs. Lu Er spat and sighed, "It's my fault for being soft-hearted, I shouldn't have promised to let her go out with Jiaoniang Wei yesterday, otherwise there will be troubles!"

"Mother Yang, these two days, you help me watch Sister Qin and let her sew a pair of socks out. In two days, the Hua family should come to a small ceremony."

Originally, as a small gift in return, the woman should make clothes for the man, but the time was too short, so Mrs. Lu Er had no choice but to ask her daughter to sew a pair of socks.

Mother Yang only complied with her promise: "Madam, don't worry, this matter is covered by the old slave."

Mamma Yang was about to step back when a young maid in azure robe hurried in and said anxiously, "Second Madam, Madam Hua and the matchmaker are here, saying they are here for a small appointment."
