The weather in spring changes at every turn. When I woke up in the morning, it was a cloudless and clear sky. But when Gu Ruosu slept until the afternoon, the sun had already been driven into the clouds that day, allowing the dark clouds to turn over and sing. Yes, just like a woman's mood, it changes at will.
Gu Ruosu lay on the bed, opened her eyes with satisfaction, stretched herself, then opened the green gauze curtain and said to Biyun who was standing by:
"Biyun~I'm awake~"
Biyun smiled and approached Gu Ruosu and said jokingly: "Madam, have you had enough sleep this time?"
"Hehehe, it's okay~ It's okay~ Anyway, I can't sleep now~"
"That's right, madam, you slept right from last night to today's afternoon, can't you get enough sleep~" Biyun said with a very disgusted and helpless voice.
"Hehehe~ There's nothing we can do about it~ I'm really sleepy~"
"Okay~ Anyway, the Duke just wants to make you happy, Madam. Even if you sleep with me for another three days and three nights, Madam, our Duke will not say a word to you. I think he will indulge you all the time. Get some rest."
"Come, Madam, I will help you up. Sister Navy and Sister Dark Green have prepared an exquisite lunch early in the morning and are waiting for you to wake up and have dinner." Biyun was worried that Gu Ruosu would suddenly become dizzy, so she carefully Gu Ruosu helped her to the dressing table, and while combing Gu Ruosu's hair skillfully, she continued:
"Today, the dark blue sister and the dark green sister specially prepared for you, madam, your favorite lychee meat and oyster pancakes. By the way, Master Changbai Sun has been standing waiting since you fell asleep this morning. Outside the door, he said that he wanted to see you. After knowing that you were not feeling well, he was unwilling to leave. The servants tried to persuade him in every possible way, but to no avail. It was not until the Duke came back from the next court that he was willing to sit in our side room and wait. you."
"Ah? Changbai? Did he say he wanted to see me for anything? Did you ask?" Gu Ruosu said in surprise.
"All the slaves have asked, but Master Changbai Sun refused to say a word no matter what. He only said that it was a very important matter, and it could only be said in front of the old lady. The slaves heard what Master Changbai Sun said. Well, I really don’t dare to ask any more questions.”
"How about... Madam, when we go to have a meal later, call Young Master Changbai Sun up to eat together. I heard from the servants below that Young Master Changbai Sun has consumed two cakes and several cups of tea since morning. ." Biyun suggested.
"Well, okay, you can ask the small kitchen to prepare a few more dishes that this kid likes to eat. This kid really can't just talk about it if something happens. How can he not eat because of something and ruin it? Where is your body? Doesn’t this child know that people are like iron rice and steel? If you don’t eat for one meal, you will feel hungry~" Gu Ruosu sighed helplessly.
"Maybe it's because the concept education that Young Master Sun of Changbai received when he was a child is slightly different from what you think, madam. The Second Madam has many children, and it's understandable that she can't take care of her sometimes. Anyway, Young Master Sun of Changbai is still young. Madam, you can keep me." Teach her slowly by her side." After saying that, Biyun inserted a bright red ruby rich peony hairpin for Gu Ruosu, which looked very grand.
Gu Ruosu looked at the bright red ruby-like jewelry that was all over her head today, and couldn't help but sigh: "Biyun, why did you dress me up so brightly today? It's so festive. I don't know, you thought I wasn't going there." Instead of having a meal, you are going to be a matchmaker for someone, so grand."
"This set of headgear is cut and polished from a whole piece of ruby brought back by Master San from the border a few years ago. Madam, you have always kept it in your library and were reluctant to wear it, but I thought, if you don't wear such a good thing, It's such a pity. What's more, the third master hasn't brought home a letter for half a year. I'm afraid that you will miss the third master. It's not like seeing words is like seeing face. So, I think, seeing things is like seeing. People should be similar."
"Well~ Biyun, there is actually a saying, it is called seeing things and missing people~ But, it doesn't matter, you are right, this jewelry is so beautiful, it would be a pity not to wear it! [ps: What? I don’t know Laosan at all. These things here have no effect on seeing things and thinking about people. However, I have to say~this set of jewelry is really beautiful~]”
The two masters and servants chatted nonchalantly, ranging from the serious education of children to the latest gossip in the house, from the filial piety of each room in the house to the frivolities in each room. Finally, With the smell of rice coming from the front hall, the dressing up and chatting between the master and servant finally came to an end for the time being.
Under Biyun's service, Gu Ruosu changed into a bright red blouse with gold embroidery and a hundred flowers blooming pattern. Her hair was simply combed into a bun. Countless priceless and finely crafted treasures were dotted on the three thousand buns. On top of her black hair, Gu Ruosu even had a peony sprinkled with gold foil between her eyebrows, making her whole person look as rich and majestic as a peony.
Biyun helped Gu Ruosu sit down in the main room where she was dining. There were countless delicacies on the table. At this moment, those delicacies were exuding heat and fragrance, silently tempting Gu Ruosu.
Gu Ruosu sat happily in her seat, picked up the chopsticks and started to use them, but suddenly thought of something, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and asked Zanglan and the others: "Didn't you say that Changbai has been waiting for me for a long time? ? Where are the others? Why haven’t they come yet? Are they fainting from hunger? "
"My grandson has met my grandmother." Zanglan and others were about to explain, but Changbai happened to walk in from outside the house.
Gu Ruosu raised her eyes to look at Xie Changbai, her eyes full of surprise.
Xie Changbai has a good appearance, but he usually dresses too plainly, which does not reflect his advantages.
But today, Xie Changbai was rarely dressed in fancy clothes. Look at Xie Changbai wearing a crown inlaid with gold and jade on his head, a lotus-pink robe with the word Baifu on his body, and a purple silk ribbon tied around his waist with a pink sachet for mandarin ducks playing in the water. She also wore an exquisite white flower-and-bird jade pendant, and a pair of new-style black shoes with green and green colors on her legs. Although there were dark circles under her eyes, her eyes were bright and she was smiling. His eyebrows were raised, looking proud of the spring breeze.
"Come on, come on, come and sit next to me. You must be very hungry. Come here and have something to eat with me." When Gu Ruosu saw Xie Changbai's expression, she felt something clear and peaceful in her heart. Guess, but I think it's not a big deal. After all, it is the most normal thing for a talented man to love his family and to admire him at a young age.
"Yes, thank you grandma." At this moment, Changbai was no longer restrained as he had been a while ago, and instead looked very relaxed and natural. The servants like Gu Ruosu and Biyun were very pleased to see this.
"Grandma, try this. This is your favorite lychee meat. I heard that my grandfather just hired a cook from your hometown. Come and eat and see if it is authentic." Changbai picked up the rare meat. A piece of lychee meat, trying to imitate Xie Yihua's tone of voice and movements every time he comes.
Gu Ruosu couldn't help but glance at Xie Changbai at this moment. She really didn't expect that her eldest grandson, who was as stuffy as a bottle of oil, would actually have a day to please her. He must have something important to ask for. Then she She has to help her great grandson~
Gu Ruosu thought so in her heart, but in action, she still couldn't help teasing her:
"What are you trying? It must be authentic. The dishes our Changbai served me, even if they are not authentic and not delicious, are the most delicious and authentic in the world for me. The so-called color, flavor and taste are all, grandma thinks. Ah, even before I eat it, I already know that this dish has at least one color, fragrance (appearance)~"
When Xie Changbai heard this, even though he was very used to Gu Ruosu's magical "brain circuit" and "mental state", he still couldn't help but blushed and said: "Grandma, please stop teasing me..."
"Hahaha, come and see, our Changbai is a bit shy like a little girl at the moment~" Gu Ruosu heard Xie Changbai's words, but did not stop teasing Xie Changbai, looking at Xie Changbai's helplessness With that rosy little face, he really couldn't help but interrupted and joked loudly.
Navy Blue, Biyun and Dark Green naturally knew their old lady's temperament, so the little girls also supported Gu Ruosu's appearance to save face.
Seeing that Xie Changbai's little face was almost completely mature, in the end, he couldn't bear to continue bullying this obedient child. He straightened his expression and said: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you kid anymore." , tell me, what special important thing do I have to do when I come back to see your grandma? Tell me, tell me, don’t tell grandma, you just really want to show your filial piety to me, and then be obedient and have no desires. Please have a meal with me~"
"Yes, nothing can be hidden from grandma's eyes..."
"No, your grandmother, I have a sharp eye. I can recognize a good guy, a bad guy, a green tea girl... your grandmother (probably, maybe, maybe~)"
The boy Xie Changbai praised Gu Ruosu again, coaxing Gu Ruosu into a state of elation. Xie Changbai saw that Gu Ruosu was laughing so hard that her ears were stretched back, and then he bit his lips and spoke nervously. : "Grandma...grandson...I...I want to get married..."
"Ah!?" Everyone shouted in shock!
Ren really couldn't think about it and usually didn't say a word. However, when he spoke this time, he directly dropped a super deep-water torpedo bomb on everyone, scaring everyone so much that their heads were buzzing.
Gu Ruosu couldn't help being frightened and quickly took a sip of the tea to calm her down, then shouted crazily in her heart: "Oh my God!" It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured~ This kid~ Hmm... he has great potential to be a male protagonist! ! ! ]
"Are you in love?" Gu Ruosu calmed down and began to ask questions slowly.
"Falling in love? Grandma... what is falling in love?"
"Ah... I just want to have a good relationship~"
"This...grandma, you don't dare to say that. I am tarnishing the innocence of this girl's family..."
"My grandson... I just have similar interests with that girl... I think it would be really good if we became a family..." Xie Changbai said hesitantly.
"Then which family does this girl belong to?" Gu Ruosu counted on her fingers, but she really couldn't figure out which girl Xie Changbai, the little gourd bottle, has fallen in love with. Logically speaking, Xie Changbai usually interacts with Apart from her, all the other women are his sisters, but they are all related by blood, and they must not be together. Counting further down, they are the maids and so on. But if they are maids, they can just take the house. It's easy to get a common roommate, a concubine, etc.
There is no need to ask her to make the decision. After all, in this evil era, what is talked about every day is a well-matched person...
The maid wants to turn over and become a real wife... She is really dreaming about cannibalism. It would be a great thing for the maid to be freed from the slave bond...
Could it be that she is his mother's cousin? That's not right... I heard that some of his mother's cousins are extremely vulgar and can't even read a bunch of Chinese characters. Although Xie Changbai is not a rich scholar, he can still be regarded as a "literary person"... This is incredible. Come on...
But besides this cousin? Who else could it be? There really isn’t any more!
The more Gu Ruosu thought about it, the more she felt that what she was thinking might be right. After all, not all couples in the world are cultural people who cherish each other. Maybe the daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, poetry and songs can also have a special flavor...
"If you really like your cousin and don't dislike her background, I will help you no matter what, grandma. As the saying goes, I would rather tear down a temple than ruin a marriage. Grandma, I..."
Before Gu Ruosu finished speaking, Xie Changbai stamped his feet and interrupted immediately:
"Grandma! You are thinking too much! I only have brother-sister feelings for cousin Yao'er, and absolutely no feelings between men and women at all!"
"ah!"
"Who is that?" Gu Ruosu asked very curiously.
"Yes...yes...yes..." Xie Changbai stammered, unable to spit out a name for a long time.
Gu Ruosu and others were really anxious when they heard this, and kept urging: "You kid, if you have the ability to fall in love early, you have the ability to say it out! What's the matter, you dare to fall in love behind my back, but you don't dare to say it in front of me. Ah! Come on, tell me! I’m so anxious! Tell me, so I can make the decision for you two little lovers!”
"Okay...grandma, actually, in my heart, the person I want to marry is...even...you also know...that person is the sister of the Hai family from my uncle's natal family!" Xie Changbai gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. , finally revealed the identity of that person.
Hearing the words "Sister Haijia", Gu Ruosu and everyone took a breath!
Oh my god, I didn’t expect it to be this little girl! These two people can actually get together! How strange! No wonder she is asked to make the decision now...
It is estimated that no one knows about this... If they knew... they would probably be beaten with a stick...
Thinking of this... Gu Ruosu couldn't help but look at Xie Changbai sympathetically. For a moment, the whole room was silent.
