Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

It was snowing heavily in the middle of the night, and when I opened the door in the early morning, I saw a vast expanse of whiteness, which made people squint subconsciously.The snow was getting smaller and smaller, Xu Shuhua stretched out his hand to catch a few fine snowflakes, watching them slowly melt in his warm palm, he was in a trance for a while.

The letter on October [-] said that he was about to leave for the capital, and it was already the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, so the date should have arrived, but Gu Yunji and the others hadn't sent any news yet.

Could it be that he just arrived in the capital, is resting and adjusting, and hasn't had time to tell her?

That's right, the snow is falling so heavily and the roads are slippery that it is inconvenient to even send someone to deliver a message. How can one expect people to rush over as soon as they arrive in the capital?It seemed that she was too anxious.

Xu Shuhua withdrew his palm and closed his eyes to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

"Miss, miss?" The maid Qiu Xiao called several times before pulling Xu Shuhua's mind back, "Master asked you to go to the front hall, saying that there are guests coming."

Xu Shuhua's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he clenched his fingers subconsciously: "What guest?"

Qiu Xiao shook her head: "I don't know, it's a few young masters, the slaves have never seen them. It stands to reason, Miss, you are still in the boudoir, and there is no mistress at home, the master should not let you meet the male guests outside .Although these sons are quite handsome, but..."

"Hey, Miss, wait for me—" Before Qiu Xiao finished speaking, she saw Xu Shuhua impatiently walking forward, so she hurriedly followed.

"Even if you have a conscience, you still know how to miss me, an old man. It seems that you are not in vain!"

In the front hall, after seeing the two boxes of snacks sent by Gu Yunji, the smile on Xu Chengyu's face became wider, and after a brief acquaintance with Gu Yunxiao, he invited the three of them to sit down.

One is a student taught by himself, who passed the provincial examination Jieyuan; the other is a student taught by himself, who passed the provincial examination Yayuan.They are all 17 years old, they have already achieved such achievements, and the future will be even more limitless.Looking at Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan sitting opposite, Xu Chengyu stroked his beard with satisfaction in his eyes.

Xu Chengyu looked at Gu Yunji and asked, "When did you arrive in the capital? Even if you want to visit at home, you don't want to send a letter in advance so that we can prepare."

Gu Yunji said: "I just arrived yesterday. You are my teacher and I am your disciple. We have been together in Luxi Academy day and night for nearly three years. It is a very close relationship. There is no need to talk about these empty etiquette. Don't say that you didn't It’s okay to prepare anything, even if I bring my own tea and rice.”

"You're really glib now, and Su Qi might be willing to bow down when he sees you!" Xu Chengyu was so happy to be coaxed by him, but he still pretended to be disapproving, "You have been exhausted for so long on the road, you can rest Come back in a few days, don’t rush at this moment.”

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "Since the closure of Luxi Academy, it has been more than half a year since we parted from the teacher. The disciple is very concerned about it. I just hope to meet you soon. Let alone a few days, I can't wait even a moment. .”

Xu Chengyu snorted through his nose: "Come on, I don't know you yet? Who do you want to see, I don't know?"

Gu Yunji was slightly embarrassed, coughed uncomfortably, and didn't answer any more.

While chatting, the airflow in the hall was slightly stirred, bringing in a few wisps of cold air from outside, Gu Yunji felt something, looked sideways towards the door, and bumped into a pair of wet eyes.

Xu Shi ran in a hurry, Xu Shuhua was panting slightly, the tip of his nose was red from the cold.As soon as she stepped into the room with the stove, the chill on her body instantly melted away, her skin was as moist as water, and the color in her eyes sparkled, looking bright.

Xu Shuhua was wearing a light pink plum satin jacket today. The thick velvet coat had a ring of snow velvet at the neckline, which was piled furry around her neck, making her face more delicate and white, bright and charming.When Gu Yunji looked over, he couldn't move his eyes.

The eyes of the two were burning, and their eyes blended together. The thoughts and concerns of the past six months were all in this short moment.

Both Xu Chengyu and Cheng Yan smiled at the corners of their mouths, and looked away tacitly, without disturbing them.Gu Yunxiao was a little puzzled at first, but he was someone who had experienced it, and soon understood something from the reactions of others, smiled meaningfully, lowered his head and drank tea by himself.

The personal maid, Qiu Xiao, is a blunt person, because she often lives in the capital, she doesn't know the past of Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua, and she can't understand the ambiguous atmosphere between the two at the moment, she just thinks that the man in front of her is extremely rude, unexpectedly staring at him so presumptuously. Look at my lady.

After being stared at by Qiu Xiao for several times, Gu Yunji finally came back to his senses, and hurriedly looked away from Xu Shuhua, took a sip from his teacup as if to cover up.

Looking up again, I saw Gu Yunxiao was winking at him non-stop, almost writing "Who is this girl" on his face.Only then did Gu Yunji remember that he hadn't introduced the two of them, so he stood up and introduced, "Brother, this is Miss Xu, my teacher's daughter."

Then he turned to Xu Shuhua: "Miss Xu, this is my elder brother Gu Yunxiao, who is here with us to participate in the test."

It turned out to be Gu Yunji's eldest brother, no wonder he looks somewhat similar to him.Speaking of which, this was the first time Xu Shuhua saw Gu Yunji's family, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and subconsciously recalled whether her behavior and attire were appropriate.

After settling his mind, Xu Shuhua saluted generously: "I've met Mr. Gu."

Gu Yunxiao nodded gently: "Hi, Miss Xu."

Everyone sat down, and Gu Yunji, who was talking and laughing freely just now, felt inexplicably uncomfortable at the moment.Often when others were talking, his eyes would subconsciously drift to Xu Shuhua as he listened, and then he either woke up by himself, or was stared at by Qiu Xiao, and then hastily withdrew his eyes.

Sometimes the eyes of Xu Shuhua collided with each other, the two paused for a while, and then they staggered their eyes at the same time, their faces flushed to the neck.

I haven't seen each other for more than half a year. Although he and Xu Shuhua have always been concerned about each other, but when they met for the first time, they didn't know how to get along.

After thinking for a while, Gu Yunji finally found a topic to break the embarrassment: "Teacher, where is Mr. Xu?"

Xu Shujing worked in the household department, so Xu Chengyu and Xu Shuhua naturally lived with him when they returned to the capital.Although Gu Yunji wasn't curious about his whereabouts, those who couldn't see him at the moment had to say hello anyway.

Xu Chengyu said: "He's on duty, and he didn't come back until evening. If you had come half an hour earlier, maybe you could still see him."

"Oh, that's it, see you next time."

Gu Yunji didn't expect that the topic would end so soon, and after he answered a few embarrassingly, he didn't know what to say.

Cheng Yan reminded him empathetically: "Yunji, didn't you say you prepared a gift for Miss Xu?"
