Gu Jinyan's face was calm and calm, and she just looked at him quietly, as if she didn't care so much whether Jiang Zheng was willing to admit defeat.
It happened that under such a quiet gaze, Jiang Zheng had no intention of cheating.
If it were in the past, Jiang Zheng would have been too lazy to pay attention to him. Otherwise, he had lost the bet and would not have acknowledged it.
Today, he just didn't want to be looked down upon.
She did not rely on luck when throwing the pot just now. Jiang Zheng knew this very well. He had been playing pot throwing since he was a child, and he got ten out of ten throws and the wind was blowing. No matter how lucky he was, there was no way to be so lucky.
She has some abilities.
"Since I have lost, I am naturally willing to admit defeat. I am not afraid," Jiang Zheng said.
"In that case, I'll be waiting for you tomorrow." Gu Jinyan said without paying much attention.
Jiang Zheng's face turned cold.
For a moment, I didn't know if she really wanted to follow her, or if she was just saying it casually.
At this time, Mr. Ying and Mr. Zhizhou, dressed as Xiao Yuheng, came together. Xiao Yuheng glanced at them and said, "Jiaojiao, go back."
The name of this young lady from the Ying family is Ying Jiao.
When I go out, I call Miss Ying's name.
Gu Jinyan nodded and walked over in a polite manner.
Mr. Zhizhou was in a good mood at the moment and laughed heartily: "Master Ying's daughter looks very graceful. In the future, in Jiangnan, she will be a daughter of one family."
Xiao Yuheng smiled accordingly.
Send them in person.
Gu Jinyan knew at a glance that with Xiao Yuheng's ability, he had convinced the Lord Zhizhou. It seemed that the Lord Zhizhou had benefited, otherwise he would not be in such a happy mood.
After they left.
An Ling's face was livid, and he was very dissatisfied as to why a merchant's daughter who had just arrived dared to be so rude to Master Jiang since she didn't want to please them.
"It's just good at throwing pots. It's not a serious talent. What's she doing? If it's music, chess, poetry and painting, then I'm afraid that bitch will make me laugh. She's just a merchant's daughter." An Ling said bitterly.
She had just been humiliated, and I didn't like her no matter how I looked at her.
"Miss An's talent is elegant!" Jiang Zheng said displeasedly.
A trace of panic flashed across An Ling's face. She just wanted to talk about Ying Jiao, not Master Jiang.
"Master Jiang, that's not what I meant. I was just talking about Ying Jiao, not you. Her throwing pot is different from your throwing pot." An Ling quickly made amends.
I was so anxious just now that I forgot that Master Jiang really likes throwing pots.
An Ling was sweating profusely.
Jiang Zheng snorted coldly, with a bit of displeasure on his face.
These people usually surrounded him and said all they could to say nice things, but this was what they really wanted to say?
Obviously he was very unhappy.
The other ladies also dispersed.
The wife of the Governor of Jiangnan was the sister of Jiang Zheng's mother. Although Jiang Zheng was not in politics, no one dared to offend Jiang Zheng because of this inextricable relationship.
Besides, the governor also dotes on this little nephew.
An Ling frowned at this moment. Of course, no one would come to seek bad luck.
On the carriage.
Xiao Yuheng asked: "How are you today?"
She was worried that Gu Jinyan would feel uncomfortable among these young ladies and young men.
In the early years, Gu Jinyan stayed in the house and did not go out. Later, she was protected by the Gu family and had a good sister like Meng Yun. When she was in Kyoto, Gu Jinyan rarely walked with girls who were uncomfortable, so she was afraid that she would not get used to it.
"It's nothing. You didn't talk to Mr. Zhizhou for a long time. You just threw a pot, and Jiang Zheng lost to me. He will follow me for three days starting from tomorrow. We just take this opportunity to see if he can learn some information." Gu Jinyan.
said.
"What? Why do you want him to follow you?" Xiao Yuheng was deeply dissatisfied.
For a while, I felt a little dissatisfied with the identity I chose.
If he appeared in the name of his brother, he could still walk together with her, but now it is not suitable to walk together.
I can't help but feel a little angry.
"This Jiang Zheng is not in the officialdom, but his status is well-established in Jiangnan. He is also a dandy, so it is natural to start with him. You don't have to worry, I have Qing Ling, Long Wu, and secret guards around me, not to mention I am also very skilled.
, there is no way he can bully me." Gu Jinyan said calmly.
Xiao Yuheng naturally knows this truth.
I just feel angry inside.
He was unhappy and turned his face to one side, looking very dissatisfied.
"Okay." Gu Jinyan pulled his sleeve.
Xiao Yuheng put his side face in front of hers: "I'll forgive you with a kiss."
Qing Ling coughed lightly: "I'm going out to get some fresh air."
After saying that, he hurried out and sat outside with Long Wu.
Qing Ling thought that she shouldn't have been in the carriage just now.
Seeing that there was no one there, Gu Jinyan kissed him on the cheek, and after kissing, he warned: "Now that we have a special status in Qizhou Mansion, we must be vigilant in the future, otherwise we don't know what rumors will come out."
Xiao Yuheng's face darkened, and he once again regretted his sudden move.
Not taking advantage is an annoying thing.
"Jiang Zheng has a good opportunity here." Gu Jinyan emphasized, fearing that he would do something in a moment of anger.
"I know." Xiao Yuheng responded dully.
Early the next morning, Gu Jinyan was fully dressed and waiting in the courtyard, drinking tea.
Qing Ling also said: "Will that scoundrel come? He looks like he is out of tune."
Qing Ling didn't have a good impression of Jiang Zheng, so she asked if his maid could be a good person.
The willingness to accept defeat may not exist at all for such a man.
"He will come." Gu Jinyan said firmly.
"Why, he's that kind of person." Qing Ling was puzzled.
Gu Jinyan smiled lightly.
She didn't know either. She just looked at people and thought that Jiang Zheng would cooperate.
Although he behaves like a scoundrel and a playboy, he is not a bad person at heart.
He wanted his maid three times and four times, but after she refused, he didn't do anything bad, and he didn't say any hurtful words.
So she thought he would come.
A cup of tea.
Jiang Zheng came with his servants, big and small.
There were not many servants in the Ying family, so when he arrived, the yard was noisy.
Jiang Zheng sat down in front of Gu Jinyan without any courtesy, and Gu Jinyan motioned for Xiaochun to serve tea.
Xiaochun was not very happy, but still served tea in a polite manner.
"Ms. Ying wants me to follow you, doesn't she just want me to drink tea with you in this courtyard?" Jiang Zheng said teasingly.
"Of course not."
"I'm not very familiar with Qizhou Mansion here. Since Master Jiang lost to me, Master Jiang can take me for a walk in Qizhou Mansion. You have many servants. I don't have to worry about my safety if I follow you in Qizhou Mansion.
