The Maple Leaf River is cool and comfortable with gentle breeze, and the scenery on both sides is beautiful. Although it is not the most suitable season for enjoying the scenery, it still has its own unique flavor.
After Su Rong stopped talking, Zhou Gu looked at the scenery outside, thinking in his heart, if he didn't marry her and wanted to break off the engagement, would his grandfather really kick him out of the house? If he insists on not marrying her, he must be able to break off the engagement, right? But what will she do after the engagement is broken off? She said not to delay each other's good years, so who should she marry?
He clasped the jade pendant on his waist with his hand, feeling a little irritated in his heart, cursing himself for his lack of success. It had only been a day. No, it wasn't even a day, only half a day, and she led him away by the nose.
Sure enough, all women are quite scheming.
Su Rong naturally didn't know what Zhou Gu was thinking. She had swam in the Maple Leaf River thousands of times and was tired of it, so after not talking, she fell asleep comfortably.
After Zhou Gu calmed down the mood that was a little disturbed by her, he turned around and saw her with her eyes closed and asleep against the soft pillow. A small face, sleeping peacefully. He was stunned for a while, then laughed angrily.
With such a big heart, he had his eyes opened.
He asked Yuewan in a low voice, "Didn't your lady say she doesn't have the habit of taking a nap?"
Yuewan had already secretly yawned several times, and was confused at this time. After hearing this, she opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhou Gu, and mumbled sleepily, "Miss lied to you, she was detained by Madam for half of the time in the house." It's been many months, and now I can finally go out with you to have some fun. Naturally, she doesn't want to stay in the house for a moment, so why not just say she won't take a nap?"
Zhou Gu: "..."
After Yuewan finished speaking, Ji Ling suddenly woke up, his sleepiness disappeared, and he looked at Zhou Gu with an expression of "I'm done".
Ziye gave Yuewan a thumbs up, "You are so good at cheating your master, better than me."
Yuewan: "..."
She had a sad face and was about to cry. She wanted to make up for it and begged Zhou Gu, "Master, can you pretend you didn't hear me?"
Zhou Gu was speechless, "Are the people in your prefecture all lying to others?"
Yuewan knew how to answer this question and immediately said, "No."
"Prefect Su and Mrs. Su forced me to stay in the prefect's mansion as soon as they sang a harmony. Your young lady tricked me into coming out early, and then used me to deal with people who had problems with her." Zhou Gu was already smart, and now he has returned After thinking about it, "Does this young master look like a fool?"
Yuewan didn't understand this. She only knew that she was stupid, so she said, "I don't understand what you said."
Zhou Gu snorted and let her go, "You should sleep too!"
The crescent moon seemed to be amnesty. She tilted her head and closed her eyes. One of her great advantages was that she was obedient and she would sleep when asked. I was so sleepy that I burst into tears. Oh wow, she must take a nap every day.
Zhou Gu can't say enough, this master and servant are really good.
Ziye came over, got close to Zhou Gu, and whispered: "Master, let's go back today and stay in the prefect's mansion?"
"Stop." Zhou Gu pinched his eyebrows with his thumb and index finger, "Prefect Su must have sent someone to find Zhou Xi, evacuated the courtyard and moved me to the prefect's residence. Zhou Xi is my grandfather's son, he I wish I could."
Midnight probed, "Son, you..."
He wanted to ask, you had planned to come to Jiangning for a visit, and then let the Su family take the initiative to break off the engagement. But now that everyone is living in the prefect's mansion, the marriage...can't be withdrawn?
Zhou Gu put down his hand and glanced at him.
Midnight immediately shut up. He shouldn't ask. It's only one day and it's still very early. It's not a big deal to live in the prefect's mansion. The young master has his own ideas, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
He looked at Su Rong again, hey, Miss Su is good-looking and has a good temper. She is different from the noble ladies in the capital. He can't describe the specific differences. In short, there has never been any woman who can chat with the young master as easily as gossip. Of course, there is no woman who can say that she is accompanying the young master on a boat trip, but she falls asleep and sleeps soundly. .
Although Su Rong fell asleep, she did not sleep well, so she heard clearly what Zhou Gu and Yue Wan said.
She thought that Zhou Gu was very smart. In such a short period of time, he could tell that his parents deliberately forced him to stay. The fact that he is so smart and doesn't fall out does it mean that he is not so resistant to this marriage?
Just don’t resist!
Su Rong fell asleep peacefully.
Zhou Gu admired the scenery for half an hour. When he saw the boatman stopped the boat and started fishing, he was curious and went out to take a look.
Midnight was also curious and walked out together.
The boatman puts the bait into the fish cage, throws it into the water, and then patiently guards the fish cage and waits.
Consultant Zhou: "How long will we wait like this? Will the fish get into the cage?"
"Half an hour!"
"It's been so long." Zhou Gu wanted to eat fish for once, but it was not easy.
The boatman laughed and said, "I don't have Miss Seven's craftsmanship. If Miss Seven does it herself, it won't take long to get a bucket of fish."
Zhou Gu was stunned, "You mean her?"
He turned back and glanced into the cabin in disbelief.
"Yes, that's Miss Seven." The boatman praised, "Miss Seven doesn't use stupid methods like mine. She uses bamboo poles to catch fish, which is precise and fast. Every fish that swims in front of her eyes will not be let go by her." Pass. I can’t do it. I’m old, my eyesight is dazzled, my techniques are inaccurate, and my efforts are in vain.”
Zhou Gu thought about Su Rong with thin arms and legs, fishing with a bamboo pole? It's unimaginable that he stayed with the boatman for a while, then suddenly turned around and entered the cabin. Seeing that Su Rong was still sleeping soundly, he stretched out a finger and poked her shoulder, "Hey, wake up!"
"I won't say hello." Su Rongbu opened his eyes.
"Su Rong, wake up." Zhou Gu paused and called her name awkwardly.
Su Rong woke up and looked at him, "What's the matter, Zhou Gu? Are you bored of admiring the scenery alone? Do you want me to talk to you?"
"No." Zhou Gu saw her pink face and rosy cheeks. He moved his eyes and looked outside the cabin. "The boatman said you can fish quickly and accurately. I want to see it."
Su Rong Jiling suddenly woke up, "What did the boatman say?"
"Um."
Su Rong was silent, thinking that her mother was wrong. She was born and raised in Jiangning and wandered outside the house all year round. She had never looked like a lady. There were not many people who knew her, even if she pretended to be in front of Zhou Gu. , but as long as she goes out to play and others say a few words, she can expose the illusion.
She pressed her brows, raised her shield, and whispered, "Mother said, this is not what a lady should do."
Zhou Gu looked at her, "You've done it anyway, haven't you?"
Su Rong coughed and stood up, "Okay then!"
