"I'll send someone to talk to Ajin. He and Gu Shizi are both in the Hanlin Academy, so it's easy to talk." Mrs. Xie nodded. After all, Gu Ying is Xie Yixiao's cousin. It would be unreasonable to leave her alone.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"It's just a small matter." After Mrs. Xie said that, she suddenly remembered that Xie Yixiao moved back to Xie's house and never returned to Changninghou Mansion, so she asked her, "Why don't you go back to Changninghou Mansion because of what they did there?"
What am I sorry for you about?"
Xie Yixiao paused, she opened her mouth, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
Those things are in the past, and she doesn't want to cause trouble again. If the Xie family knows that Gu You almost ruined her marriage, Mrs. Xie will definitely skin Gu You. From now on, the Xie family and Changning Houfu will probably become a mortal enemy.
Already.
When Mrs. Xie saw that she refused to say anything, she vaguely guessed something in her mind, so she said, "That's all it depends on you. Since you don't want to say anything, I won't ask, but you have to know it yourself."
Xie Yixiao lowered his head: "Yixiao understands."
It was already afternoon when he came back from the front yard. Xie Yixiao changed his clothes and took people to Chang'an Building to wait for Gu Zhixuan. When he arranged for people to find Xie Jin, he asked Xie Jin to take people to Chang'an Building.
As soon as the group stepped into Chang'an Tower, they heard a burst of surprise.
"Little aunt is also coming to Chang'an Tower for tea today?"
Xie Yixiao turned around and saw Xie Lian and a few girls standing at the counter. He turned to look at them with surprise on his face.
Xie Yixiao looked calm and asked, "It's you. How is your family doing lately?"
Xie Lian and several girls came forward to salute. Xie Lian said: "Thank you for your concern, little aunt. Ah Lian's family is fine. Little aunt is here to have tea today, why don't we come together?"
Xie Yi smiled and said, "I'm a little tired today, so I just wanted to sit quietly for a while, drink tea and listen to a book, so that I won't disturb your enjoyment. You guys have fun."
After that, she asked the waiter in the building to lead her to the private room she had reserved.
Xie Lian wanted to get together, but she didn't dare. If she was stopped by someone now, she would be exposed and laughed at. She told everyone that she had a very good relationship with this little aunt.
"Ah Lian, should we follow?" Someone asked cautiously, with eyes full of yearning.
These people are all girls from ordinary people in the Imperial City. They live close to Xie Lian's family. Because they learned that Xie Lian's family is related to the Xie family, they are also close to Xie Lian's family, and Xie Lian seems to have become one of these people.
The leader of girls.
When ordinary people like them can get close to a noble lady like Xie Yixiao, even if they are lucky enough to have tea together, they can brag about it for half their lives.
This is the noble daughter of Xie Ge's hometown, and soon she will be the ninth young lady of Duke Rong's mansion!
Xie Lian hesitated and shook his head: "No, I'm afraid my little aunt wants to be quiet today, so we can't disturb her. I'll have a chance to talk to my little aunt another day and let her meet you."
When the girls heard what she said, they didn't dare to ask any more questions. After all, those ladies were of high status and they couldn't get along with them if they wanted to.
Someone said: "Then next time you see Miss Xie, remember to ask."
Xie Lian nodded: "I will definitely remember to ask next time, but it depends on whether my little aunt has time."
The person next to me said: "It's okay, we have plenty of time and can wait. As long as Miss Xie is willing to see us, she can do it anytime."
"that is."
Xie Lian smiled softly: "Then I will ask my aunt when the time is right."
Xie Lian thought to herself that it was indeed right to stay in the Imperial City. If she returned to Jinshan City, how could she have such glory?
Although the Xie family in Jinshan City was relatively wealthy and had a high status, there were too many people in the Xie family, and her father was just a bastard, so there was no status at all.
But Imperial City was different. Because she was related to the Xie family, she had the opportunity to go in and out of the Xie family. She recognized the most distinguished aunt of the Xie family and could speak a few words in front of her.
It is precisely because of this that everyone admires her and wants to make friends with the Xie family and get to know this aunt through her.
"Let's go find a place."
"Come on, Ah Lian, we've invited you today, but you can't refuse."
Xie Lian had some rejection on his face: "I'm so embarrassed. Besides, you guys also..."
Someone said: "Ah Lian, don't worry, even if we don't have much money, we can still treat you to Chang'an Restaurant once."
Others immediately echoed: "That's right..."
Xie Lian smiled after hearing this: "Then I won't be polite."
"Why are you so polite?"
"that is."
Xie Yi on the other side went upstairs with a smile. She didn't want to listen to books today, so she chose a private room facing the street, and then ordered some tea and snacks. While waiting for Xie Jin and Gu Zhixuan, she looked at the people on the street.
People come and go.
Almost half an hour after Shenshi, Xie Jin and Gu Zhixuan arrived. They were led upstairs by the waiter, and then knocked on the door.
"Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Young Master, and Prince Gu for asking to see you."
Ming Xin went to open the door and saw the two of them. Then she knelt down and saluted: "Greetings to the eldest son, paying homage to Prince Gu." After saying this, he stepped aside to make way.
Xie Jin walked in first, followed by Gu Zhixuan. The two of them saw Xie Yixiao sitting in front of the tea seat by the window, Ming Jing making tea nearby, and Qingluo standing beside him.
"Young Master, Prince Gu." The two of them saluted.
Xie Jin nodded slightly and then stepped forward: "Little aunt."
"Ajin, cousin is here, take a seat." Xie Yixiao raised her eyes, her eyes clear and bright, as if the noisy and impetuous world in the world became quiet and peaceful after passing through her eyes.
"Cousin." Gu Zhixuan sighed in his heart, feeling a little headache. He could probably guess why Xie Yixiao was looking for him.
Xie Yixiao asked Ming Jing to share tea with the two of them, and then talked about the reason for coming: "Today, the aunt next to Aunt Liu came to see me and begged me to save Aunt Liu and her fourth cousin. She also said that Aunt Liu asked her to buy them.
If the medicine really fails, Aunt Liu will die to find a way for her fourth cousin."
Gu Zhixuan's hand holding the tea cup tightened slightly.
Xie Yixiao asked Gu Zhixuan: "I took the liberty of inviting my cousin here today to ask you how to resolve this matter. Do you really want A Ying to marry you?"
"Theoretically, I'm just an outsider, and I'm not qualified to take care of the affairs of the family. But Aunt Liu has begged me, and I can't just sit back and do nothing. Ah Ying is my cousin after all."
Gu Zhixuan closed his eyes and said after a long time: "Cousin, please don't worry, Ah Ying is my sister, I will never really let her experience such a thing."
If it were true that his mother and Gu You's wishes were fulfilled and Gu Ying was allowed to marry him, then the Changning Marquis Mansion would really be doomed.
Gu Zhixuan felt a little confused. He knew that Gu You would definitely find a way to escape and was prepared. But what he didn't expect was that his mother would help Gu You escape and even pull Gu Ying on top of him.
How could they do such a thing?
"Gu You is outside now, but we still know where she is. My father and I are afraid that she will run away again, so we will let her stay outside for a few days. We will definitely bring her back the day before the wedding."
"Cousin, please don't worry, I won't let Ah Ying marry you."
