Xiao Yuan is a modern man. When he meets the girl he likes, he naturally doesn't want to miss it.
After the last incident, he also began to meet with Gu Xue every now and then, either for fun or strolling in the market. Gradually, the two became more and more familiar with each other.
He was completely dating, and at that time, marriage between men and women relied on a matchmaker, and free love was rare.
But for Gu Xue, she had countless heart-pounding feelings.
At the moment, there is a bright moon in the sky. Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Yuan is lying on a roof with a piece of weed in his mouth and his hands on the back of his head.
Gu Xue sat next to him, holding her chin in her hands, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and said leisurely: "What a beautiful moonlight."
Her feet were still there, dangling casually one after another. Matched with her appearance and her posture, it was really cute.
The two of them have been getting along for many days and have become very familiar with each other. The love between them has become deeper and deeper. After Xiao Yuan heard this, he immediately said: "No matter how beautiful she is, she is still not as good as the person next to her."
"Hmph, you are the only one who can say it." Gu Xue snorted slightly, but her heart felt as sweet as drinking honey.
She was happy in her heart and tugged on Xiao Yuan's clothes: "By the way, I have something for you."
"Oh?" When Xiao Yuan heard this, he turned over and sat up: "What a coincidence, I also have something to give you."
As he spoke, he also took out a hairpin.
This hairpin is not made of pure gold, nor is it inlaid with jewelry or jade. It is just a simple decoration, but it has a graceful look. It just matches Gu Xue, and it was also carefully selected by Xiao Yuan.
Such a simple gift, but Gu Xue was so happy that she quickly snatched it and regarded it as a treasure.
Seeing her happy expression, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly, then took the hairpin from her hand and carefully inserted it into her black hair.
"Does it look good?" After he finished, Gu Xue also asked with a smile, and her face was filled with anticipation.
"It looks good." Xiao Yuan nodded first, then shook his head: "It's just not very precious, it's a bargain."
"I definitely like it." Gu Xue said, then took out a jade pendant and said a little shyly: "Originally, I wanted to make a sachet for you, but you say you are a man all day long, so you definitely don't want to carry it. I’ll give you this.”
This jade pendant is crystal clear and beautifully made. It has been a personal item that Gu Xue has worn since she was a child. She values it very much.
There is no doubt that she is obviously sending a token of love to the man she loves. Although she did not say it clearly, the slightly shy look when she spoke made it clear.
Looking at the gentle and shy girl in front of him, Xiao Yuan's heart palpitated. After taking the jade pendant, he couldn't help but lower his head slightly and put his lips on it.
How many times did he want to go further, but Gu Xue was too reserved. This time, he still failed. He had just come into contact and before he could taste it, Gu Xue pushed him away with all his strength: "Rogue!"
"No, this..." Xiao Yuan was speechless.
Gu Xue was even too embarrassed to raise her head, feeling like a deer in her heart.
After appreciating the moon, Xiao Yuan also sent her back to Gu Mansion.
It was already night at this time. After returning home, Gu Xuegang was about to sneak back to his room, but halfway there, there was a heavy cough behind him.
Hearing this cough, Gu Xue couldn't help but feel nervous. She wanted to run away, but had no choice but to turn around and shout in a low voice: "Dad..."
His father's name was Gu Tong. When he saw this, he couldn't help but snorted loudly and scolded: "What time of day is it now! How unbecoming is it for a daughter to come back so late! If this spreads, Where can I put this old face of mine!"
It was different then, and what Gu Tong said was reasonable.
Gu Xuene is a lady of the family. Even though she knew she was being rude, she lowered her head and whispered, "Dad, my daughter knows she was wrong."
"Humph!" Gu Tong shook his sleeves angrily: "Do you think that during this period, you often sneak out of the house, and your father really doesn't know about it!"
"Ah? Dad..." Gu Xue panicked.
But Gu Tong didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and said again: "The person you saw is Xiao Yuan, the captain of Liucheng who was defending Liucheng in the previous time. Is your father right?"
Unexpectedly, his father knew everything. When Gu Xue heard this, she was even more ashamed and could not hold her head up.
Gu Tong glanced at her, shook his head secretly, and changed his tone. He sighed with worry on his face: "Daughter, you are the daughter of my Gu family. You should be well-educated and sensible, and you must not be deceived by others."
After hearing this, Gu Xue finally raised her head and looked directly at Gu Tongtong: "Dad, Brother Xiao is not that kind of person."
She said so firmly, but seeing his daughter like this, Gu Tong was so angry that he couldn't help but point at her and said: "Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, what the hell, Brother Xiao!"
"Xiao Yuan, that stinky boy! A martial artist, totally disrespectful! If I treat you sincerely, why haven't I paid you a visit yet?"
"father!"
"It's true that a female college student is not allowed to stay! She is not allowed to leave the house again! That brat is so unreasonable!" Gu Tong was furious.
In fact, Old Man Gu is a very interesting person. He is kind and charitable, his daughter is gentle and kind, and his family tradition is excellent. This is not to say that he looks down on Xiao Yuan.
The reason why he was angry was that Xiao Yuan's practice of free love at that time was unacceptable to him.
At this time, Xiao Yuan was actually already preparing for this matter.
He also deeply understands the differences in times and social environment issues.
On this day, he frowned and paced back and forth in the military camp.
The matchmaker's words, the matchmaker's words, who should I look for to be the matchmaker?
After thinking for a long time, he really thought of a person, Liu Yuzhi.
Gu Tong is a well-known big businessman in Liucheng. As the local magistrate, Liu Yuzhi must know him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan did what he said and immediately rode to the county government.
The relationship between him and Liu Yuzhi was still very good. When the latter heard that he was coming, he personally welcomed him out of the house.
The two met and after bowing their hands, Xiao Yuan was invited into the hall to have tea, and then he directly stated his intention.
He got straight to the point. After hearing this, Liu Yuzhi was stunned at first, and then couldn't help but smile heartily: "Haha, it turns out that General Xiao has fallen in love with the daughter of the Gu family. Okay, okay, the talent and beauty make it a good match."
"Then, Mr. Liu..." Xiao Yuan asked slightly nervously.
"Don't worry, since the general has spoken, I have decided to be the matchmaker."
Speaking of this, Liu Yuzhi looked at Xiao Yuan with a smile and said: "But general, please be patient for a moment. I'll go to the Gu Mansion first to find out what the old man of the Gu family has to say."
