The next day, the sky was clear.
As summer enters, the weather begins to gradually warm up.
Gu Yunxi was wearing a thin long skirt and was bored, lying on the rocking chair at the entrance of the courtyard, looking at the sky outside.
He and Dad Lu, as well as Lu Qingqing and Gu Yunle, all went to the medicine field.
Today they will continue to drain the stagnant water in the medicine field and straighten the honeysuckle that has been soaked by rain and distorted by the wind.
Gu Yunxi was the only one who was detained at home, and He was not allowed to go out to work.
"Yes, my mother-in-law only said she wasn't allowed to go out to work, but she didn't say she wasn't allowed to go out!"
Gu Yunxi had an idea and felt that he was really smart, so he immediately stood up from the rocking chair.
She walked back to the house, rummaged through the boxes, and planned to go for a walk in the mountains.
It's been a long time since I've been to the mountains. Those treasures on the mountains are worth a lot of money.
You have to work hard no matter what, and pay off the one thousand taels of silver that you owe the space this morning.
Gu Yunxi never likes to owe others things, not to mention the money he owes the space, and there is still interest.
When she was ready and went out, she was about to lock the door when she saw her little sister Qiaozhen coming from a distance.
"Yunxi!" Qiaozhen shouted, running faster towards the Lu family.
Gu Yunxi was also a little surprised, but his eyes were more filled with surprise.
She smiled, looked at Qiaozhen approaching, and then said: "Qiaozhen, why are you here?"
Qiaozhen also had a smile on her face and gasped: "Let's go, let's talk to you in the house."
"Yes, yes, come into the house and say it." Gu Yunxi quickly opened the door and pulled Qiaozhen into the house.
She poured tea for Qiaozhen again, and after she took a sip of water and took a breath, she said, "Why are you coming here at this time? How have you been lately?"
When Qiaozhen heard this, her smile became even bigger, but before she could answer, her eyes glanced at Gu Yunxi's belly.
"Yunxi, you, are you pregnant?" Ever since Qiaozhen recalled that Yunle was going to be sold, she came to deliver a letter to Gu Yunxi, and the two of them had never seen each other again.
This time, Qiaozhen was shocked to see how big Gu Yunxi's belly was.
It's not that she didn't come, it was just that there were too many things to do at home and she couldn't find time to chat with Yun Xi.
Gu Yunxi looked at Qiaozhen's reaction and smiled: "It's been five months. As an aunt, you don't care enough about others."
Qiaozhen scratched her head and felt a little embarrassed: "You know, my family is like this... Where can I have time to see you?"
Gu Yunxi nodded: "I know, I'm joking with you."
Qiaozhen is the eldest in the family, and she has three younger siblings who can't do anything, so a lot of housework falls on her.
Gu Yunxi grew up with her and knew her family's situation very well.
After Qiaozhen finished talking about Gu Yunxi's pregnancy, she became a little mysterious and lowered her voice and said, "Yunxi, my mother is going to get engaged to me."
"What? Which one did you book?" Gu Yunxi was a little surprised. Qiaozhen was the same age as him, only seventeen.
Logically speaking, she is an old girl, but over the years, Qiaozhenniang has been reluctant to engage her in marriage, and has been delaying it until now.
"Your mother, why have you thought about it and are you willing to get engaged?"
Qiaozhen shook her head and said: "I don't know the details very well. I only know that that person's family is doing business in the town, and his surname is Ke."
Your surname is Ke? ? ? No, what a coincidence, right?
She met a man surnamed Ke, the same family she met on a blind date with Gu Yunle before, the Ke family.
However, there should be more than one family named Ke in the town, right?
Mrs. Ke is a messy and rogue master, and her son Ke Yaowu doesn't even know how to fart.
If Qiaozhen’s mother is planning to book something for Qiaozhen, it’s really Ke Yaowu, and that’s not a good place to end up.
"Yunxi, Yunxi, what's wrong with you?" Qiaozhen said something again, but Gu Yunxi was thinking to himself, not even listening to a single punctuation mark of Qiaozhen's words.
Qiaozhen had no choice but to wave her hand in front of her eyes to bring her back to her senses.
"Ah, what?" Gu Yunxi asked. "Qiaozhen, do you know the name of the Ke family son who is engaged to you?"
Qiaozhen was stunned, a little surprised, why did Gu Yunxi ask someone's name.
However, Yun Xi has been playing with her since she was a child. Even if she doesn't trust her parents, she won't distrust Yun Xi.
However, she really didn't know the name of the Ke family's son.
Qiaozhen said with a sad face: "My mother didn't say anything either."
I didn't ask either...
...
It wasn't that she didn't care. In fact, as soon as she heard her mother say that she was getting engaged, she panicked and subconsciously ran to Xijiang Village to find Gu Yunxi.
Gu Yunxi held his forehead, thought for a while, and said, "Have you met anyone from the Ke family before?"
Qiaozhen's face was a little red, like a chicken pecking at rice, and she nodded lightly.
"Seen it? When did you see it? Where did you see it?" Gu Yunxi wanted to know more before he knew how to help Qiaozhen.
Qiaozhen replied: "My mother took me to town to buy things before, and we met in a teahouse."
After saying that, she still felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head.
Teahouse? The Ke family and Gu Yunle met before, also in a teahouse.
"Oh, do you know what they do?" Gu Yunxi's heart skipped a beat and continued to ask for more information.
Qiaozhen thought for a while, frowned, and said, "My mother said that their family seems to sell tofu in the town."
"Speaking of which, your stepmother is the one behind this marriage!"
Qiaozhen's words are like thunder every time.
No need to ask, this Ke family must be Ke Yaowu's family.
Especially since Fang was the one pulling the strings, she said that when Gu Yunle and the Ke family met before, there was something wrong with Fang's enthusiasm.
She wouldn't believe it to her death that Fang didn't get any good things from the Ke family's marriage.
Fang is a person who can't afford to be early if there is no profit.
Wherever there is benefit, there is Fang family.
As long as you give her money, she can do it even if you ask her to kill people and set fires.
Therefore, Gu Yunxi just thought with his toes and knew that there was nothing wrong with this marriage.
No, after so many years of sisterly friendship with Qiaozhen, she couldn't just watch her jump into the fire pit.
Gu Yunxi took a sharp breath and said slowly: "Qiaozhen, Fang also asked Yunle to see a marriage before. That person is also in the town, and his surname is Ke."
Gu Yunxi's words made Qiaozhen immediately suspicious. Her surname was Ke?
She looked at Gu Yunxi, and an idea came to her mind: "Is this the person Yun Lexiang is looking for?"
Gu Yunxi showed rare seriousness and nodded.
Silence, the room suddenly became silent.
After a long while, Qiaozhen finally said, "Yunle, isn't this, this marriage inappropriate?"
Gu Yunxi nodded, it was inappropriate, very inappropriate.
