The Gu family courtyard was rather lively today. Because of Xu Tianyun's visit to the Gu family, Gu Jinyu did not go to the academy. Instead, she stayed at home every day, afraid that this kid would do something improper. Gu Jinyu was afraid that Xu Tianshong had taken advantage of her, so she racked her brains to think of a way to attract Jiu Niang's attention. After thinking for a long time, she decided to play chess with her. By the window, Gu Jiuniang and Gu Jinyu were sitting facing each other, their attention focused on the black and white chess pieces on the table. Although they called it a chess piece, it was actually just a white radish and a pebble that were about the same size. If it were such a simple game, the two of them would have been delighted. "Raise your hands without regret, big man!"
Seeing that Gu Jinyu was about to repent, Gu Jinyu grabbed her hand without hesitation. Although she was unwilling, she could only helplessly withdraw her hand. At the same time, she kept muttering, "Hmph, I'm a girl, not a gentleman."
Even though he said that, he knew that this regret was hopeless.
She really didn't understand. Didn't her brother see it with his eyes? Why was it that every time he wanted to secretly regret his game of chess, he would be able to grab onto a piece of cake?
Inside the house, the two siblings stood around the black and white chess board, while outside the house, Xu Tianshong gathered a group of servants and brought them to the Gu family's small courtyard, carrying them with him in a manner as if he wanted to live here forever. "This way, this way, put this way!" You, you didn't hear me! "But be careful, these are all good things. If they fall, you won't be able to pay them even if you sell them!"
"Pa, I'm not playing anymore!"
"She lost again. Next morning, she didn't win a single time, and Nona threw her chess piece in dissatisfaction. She didn't care that Gu Jinyu slipped away and ran out, instead she placed her hands on her hips and roared at Xu Tianyun, wanting to vent the anger in her heart," "" Hey, hey, Xu Tianyun, who let you move in! "
Nona really knew a bit about chess.
Her grandfather was a Go fan, but unfortunately, he was a naughty chess fan. Moreover, this person had grown up to be even more childish, and no one could stand him. When they heard that he was going to play chess, they all became too scared to go home, except for Nona, who was caught by him every time and had no choice but to play chess with him.
Originally, she had been playing chess for hours. For a young girl like her, this was simply torture. Since she had so much time, she might as well go online and chat. Even reading novels would be good enough. However, his Grandpa Treasure refused to give her the chance to live … And most importantly, her usually amiable family members had turned their lance around and directly sold her out without a word. They were even saying that they would rather die than give up their lives!
Yes, yes, of course they said it simply.
With her playing chess with the old man and not daring to say a word, even if I regretted it a hundred times, I wouldn't dare to say a word. The old gramps had to think about it for half an hour every step of the way. She wanted to sleep but did not dare to, and she even had to open her eyes wide and act like she was extremely focused, silently letting him win by a dozen or so, and without making any noise at all. The old man thought that his chess skills were getting better and better, so he was naturally happy. When the old man was happy, he pulled her along and refused to let her go, and even the old man was unhappy. As for those unscrupulous family members, they happily patted her shoulders, calling her by the title: "Our girl is so filial."
I fell!
Filial piety, filial piety your sister!
He sat with this old kid for three to five hours straight, until his butt was flat!
From then on, Nona hated this Go game.
Hearing Gu Jinyu say that she wanted to play Go with him, he couldn't help but think that Gu Jinyu wouldn't be able to see him win, but he didn't expect …
Go, go! Nona's heart ached.
He had wanted to take the opportunity to torture Gu Jinyu for a sense of accomplishment, but he didn't expect that he would lose so easily. Nona was even more certain that there was an enmity between them. Otherwise, why would she be unable to turn the tables over for the next two lifetimes? Forget it, forget it. It seemed like there was no hope for him to defeat Gu Jinyu. He should first teach this Xu Tianyun a lesson.
"Stop, stop, all of you stop!" "Who told you to move in?" With his hands on his waist and his almond-shaped eyes wide open, Jiu Niang yelled at him. The servants of the Xu family were all too scared to move, obediently staying in their original positions.
Originally, they only had one tyrant on their heads, but recently there was one more — Gu Jiuniang.
The Gu family was so poor that there was a tinkling sound. There was rain leaking from the roof and wind seeping through the walls. They didn't even have food to eat. However, Xu Tiancai was insistent on staying at the Gu family. His mouth was mumbling something, [I should repay the debt of saving my life with my own body.] It's not just me, I'll go to the mountain.
In short, he had taken a fancy to the young woman of the Gu family.
Even his old man, Xu Mubai, couldn't do anything to him, much less these servants.
However, Xu Tianyi was like the eyeball of a million dollars. The Xu family couldn't bear to let this child suffer even the slightest bit, so it almost brought the entire Xu family over …
Nona, Nona, you come, you come!" Look, this is brocade, this is silo, this is pearlescent satin … This is the South Sea pearl, this is the North Sea crystal, this is the plum hairpin … This is Jiang-Nan Xuan paper, this is... "This is …" It didn't matter whether Nona was happy or not, as long as Xu Tianyi was happy. He tightly held her small hand while Xu Tianyi introduced her to her as if he knew what she was talking about. Not to mention a lot of things to eat, but also a bunch of things to use, it was enough to make Nona's head ache just by looking at it. Furthermore, Xu Tianyi was able to remember everything without missing a beat. This really made Jiu Niang look at him in a new light. She had always thought that Xu Tianlong was someone who only knew how to eat, dress, and play.
However …
If Jiu Niang knew that Xu Tianyi was originally the second generation's young master who came and went as he pleased, and that all of this was specifically written down to curry favour with Jiu Niang, who knew if she would be moved or despised.
However, regardless of what Nona was thinking in her heart, the Xu family was so moved that they were almost at the point where Xie Tian was not paying attention. The heavens had opened the eyes of the heavens. It was precisely because Xu Tianlong had suddenly become diligent in his studies that the Xu family, even though Jiu Niang had complained a lot, did not really cause any trouble and allowed the Xu family to do as they pleased. Otherwise, Xu Tianyun would have come knocking on his door a long time ago. Xu Tianyun was his eyeball, naturally he should be the best in the world. He was a poor girl who was worthy of him. Besides, it's fine if you're poor, but you're ugly. It's simply unforgivable.
Seeing that his son was going to the Gu family every day, Xu Qiuyi's heart was filled with joy for a while, before it was filled with anxiety and turned into a pile of dregs.
"You …." "You're crazy!"
The more she read, the more Nona was flabbergasted. She could only blankly stare at Xu Tianyun.
If she really was a little girl, then it was possible for her to become so excited after filling the entire courtyard with items. However, she was not, she was not! It was because she was not one of them that she understood the value of these things.
It was likely that Xu Tianlong had already moved over half of the Gu family's members over, right?
"For you, even if I had gone mad, I would still do it."
He held Nona's small hand in his hands and placed it on his chest. His eyes were so full of love that it seemed as if water would drip out of them.
This... This... What was this?
Nona stared at Xu Tianyun dumbfoundedly. She was completely dumbfounded.
Those fiery eyes were pure and without the slightest bit of falsehood. They were so sincere that no one dared to blaspheme them.
She, she …
Wuu wuu, how embarrassing!
Fortunately, her face was covered by a scarf, otherwise, she would have … The pustules all over his face were already frightening enough. If his face was flushed red, wouldn't that scare a person to death?
"You …." "You …"
In his previous life, this was the first time Jiu Niang had seen such a confession. That young girl was not in love with love. With such a passionate confession, it would be difficult for her to not move. Nona shyly lowered her head and wanted to ask, "Are you sincere?"
If … His gaze landed on Xu Tianlong's face. His lips were red, his teeth were white, and he had a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes … Although he was still young, it was rare for him to have such deep feelings for himself. Furthermore, his family background was also quite good … It would be great if there was a boy in the room!
However, before she could finish her sentence, Xu Tianfeng spoke first.
"Nona, Nona, look at my acting, does it look like it?" Was it a deep love? Let me tell you, this is the Little Phoenix Flower's trump card! First Mother, Second Mother, Third Mother, Fourth Mother, Fifth Mother all liked it! If you like it, next time, invite this little phoenix flower over and let him sing it for you! "His tone is so beautiful!"
Xu Tiangong was so excited that he was waving his hands in the air. His complacent appearance was like a cat that had just stolen a fish.
While he was unable to contain his excitement, Nona felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head. She only felt her entire body tremble, and when she looked into that pair of burning eyes, she felt even colder.
"Alas, many young ladies like Little Phoenix Flowers. Even my father doesn't like them. My mother is still the best …"
Seeing Jiu Niang in a daze, Xu Tianshong thought that he was indeed the trump card of the little phoenix flower that had come alive. This little phoenix flower was the most popular cyan dress. Every frown and smile was a play, how many young ladies loved him to the point that they wished they were dead or alive? This Xu Tianlong had grown up with his mothers, listening to all kinds of plays and stories. He had learned all sorts of words at will.
"Scram!"
Unfortunately …
Nona felt as if she had been slapped in the face. She felt infuriated. She had only thought that Xu Tianyi was a fool. She hadn't thought that she would be played around by this fool. Moreover … And just now, she almost believed this guy's words. She didn't expect him to learn from watching a play.
"Huh?" "This, this …" This time, Xu Tianyong was stunned as he blankly stared at Nona, unable to make sense of the matter. Wasn't, wasn't this the case? Shouldn't they be like those young misses, looking at him shyly and timidly? Could it be that he wasn't good enough?
No, no!
He had practiced this line many times in front of the mirror, and had even found the young maid at home to test it out.
Right, could it be that Nona had never seen the little phoenix flower play before, so she didn't know how to handle it? "I'm afraid that after living for more than ten years, this was the first time his head had moved so fast. He smacked his forehead and continued to look happily at Jiu Niang, not getting angry in the slightest." "Jiu Niang, it shouldn't be like this. Your face should be like peach blossoms after this, very shy …"
"Shame your sister, shame your father!" With her hands on her waist and her almond-shaped eyes wide open, the anger in Nona's heart burned. She poked his forehead and loudly cursed, "I'll let you see the play book, but if you don't learn, what kind of nonsense are you at such a young age?!" "She had no shame, no sense of shame, and even before she had grown all her hair, she had already imitated him in flirting with girls!"
