Value peace

Chapter 182 Same name but different reality ([-])

Gu Xiyan was assisted by Cuiyu to hold the umbrella, while Fang Shaoqin was assisted by Nanny Shi.

It was windy and windy, neither of them had time to talk, they hurried to Songzhen Courtyard.

On the way, Nanny Shi and Fang Shaoqin whispered, "It's appropriate for a girl to do this."

Fang Shaoqin smiled wryly, and said: "There are some sayings about whether it is appropriate or not. The most important thing now is Songzhen Courtyard... But don't let Qi Hao look at us and get bored."

Nanny Shi also nodded: "What the girl said is true. At first, she was counting on Mrs. Xu's strength, but now it seems that she is just a paper tiger. I'm afraid I have to use my strength to Songzhen Courtyard."

Saying that, the eyes of the two fell on Gu Xiyan who was walking in front of them at the same time.

The crow's black hair is twisted into a flat bun, with a few emerald jade hairpins simply inserted, and the moon-white pinched waist jacket is wrapped around the body obediently. On the eight skirts, there are round and upturned buttocks, and a hand on the emerald shoulder wearing a green jacket, as fine and white as porcelain, crystal clear, shining brightly in this gloomy weather , with the other hand gently holding the hem of the skirt, walking a little scattered on the corridor paved with bluestone slabs.Occasionally, I meet the residual flowers blown on the ground by the wind and rain, or jump over with a brisk small step, or walk around with a twist of the waist... No matter what kind of steps, they are as light as a bird, exuding a cheerful breath.

Fang Shaoqin's footsteps could not help but pause.

Mrs. Gu is only one year younger than herself, but she is innocent and innocent like a girl, and she, after only a few days, seems to have passed a generation, lifeless, no longer as bright as before... ...Is this the life I want to live in the future, calculating, doubting, measuring...

Mammy Shi felt her hesitation, and stopped, looking at Fang Shaoqin who was beside her with confused eyes, and said worriedly: "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing!" Fang Shaoqin came back to his senses and smiled, "Let's go!"

As soon as a group of people walked to the Xifang Hall, two little girls with rain gear came towards them. Fang Shaoqin heard the maid named Yanhong next to Gu Xiyan say in surprise: "Xia Qing, Xing Yu, you, you Why are you here..."

The two little girls held their umbrellas in the wind and squatted towards Gu Xiyan to salute. As the wind poured into their throats, they said in a hurried tone: "Ma'am, it's the Lord, it's raining heavily, let us come Look at Ma'am..."

In the torrential rain, Gu Xiyan's speech was also a bit difficult: "Go back quickly... The rain is too heavy, let it be fine if one of you gets wet, and call everyone out to follow the rain..."

Everyone rushed into the Liyuan, Qi Maosheng had already gone to Qinyuan, and Mo Ju was waiting in the house with Yunshang.

Four or five glass lamps were lit in the room, shining on the pear-yellow furniture, giving off warmth, keeping the moisture from the rain curtains out of the room.

Gu Xiyan doesn't like to go out when it's raining. She always feels a little damp on her body. After following her for the past few years, Mo Ju knows her habits best, so she boiled hot water early in the morning and specially put The changed clothes smelled of jasmine.

After returning to her own room and seeing such a situation again, Gu Xiyan relaxed. She looked at Fang Shaoqin's rain-soaked shoes and said with a smile, "Mo Ju, let someone serve you to do laundry for the young lady. , wash your feet."

Fang Shaoqin hesitated for a moment, Gu Xiyan had already rushed to the east room.

Gu Xiyan took a shower, changed her clothes, and pulled her hair again, before coming out to see the guests again.

Fang Shaoqin also changed into Gu Xiyan's clothes at the moment. Although she looked a little small, her slender body was not ugly.

She was holding a cup of hot tea, sitting leisurely on the grand master's chair in the living room.

Seeing Gu Xiyan come out, she put down the teacup and stood up with her hands down.

Gu Xiyan pointed to the chair behind her and said with a smile: "Sit down and have a rest. I came here early to serve grandma, and I should be hungry!" Then she said to Yun Shang: "Pass the meal !” Then he turned around and sat on the arhat bed with a mountain-shaped backrest.

Yun Chang left in response, and Fang Shaoqin sat on the grand teacher's chair with his back straight.

After a while, Hongyu directed the mother-in-law to bring in the Kang table and put it in the middle of the Arhat bed.

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "Let's eat some together! I don't know if it suits your appetite..."

Fang Shaoqin sat across from Gu Xiyan in a graceful manner, looked at the table full of dishes, and said with a smile: "The last time I ate spring pancakes at Auntie's place, I still remember it now!"

Gu Xiyan smiled and turned her head to Hongyu beside her and said, "Remove the table and tell the kitchen to make spring pancakes..."

Fang Shaoqin hastily stopped Hongyu who was serving vegetables, looked at the table with interest, and said, "No, no...today my aunt made scallion pancakes, which is also my favorite."

Gu Xiyan let out a "huh", pointed to the white porcelain plate and said, "Why, don't you like it?"

It is true that scallion pancakes were posted today, but they were specially posted for Qi Maosheng, they were vegetarian, and there were no eggs in them.

There was a hint of a smile on Hongyu's face: "Master said it was delicious, so he specially reserved two for Madam, and told Madam to taste it too."

Fang Shaoqin couldn't help but startled when he heard this.

The corners of Gu Xiyan's mouth turned up, and she asked Hongyu to hold one and handed it to Fang Shaoqin, saying: "It's not scallion pancakes, it's filled with Chinese toon, you can try it too."

Fang Shaoqin was startled when he heard that, and said, "There are still Chinese toon at this time!"

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "I picked it last month, I used salt and frost, put it in the cellar, and specially waited for this season to take it out to make toon cakes, so that your second uncle can taste it."

Fang Shaoqin took the plate from Hongyu, took a small bite politely, and said with a smile, "Well, it's really delicious."

"Eat more delicious food!" Gu Xiyan said, and Hongyu brought a bowl of delicious food and placed it in front of Gu Xiyan.

Fang Shaoqin looked at it out of the corner of his eye, not knowing what it was.

Call it soup, with rice grains added in it, call it porridge, it seems to have meat and eggs in it.

Seeing Fang Shaoqin looking at her porridge curiously, Gu Xiyan said with a smile: "This is beef egg drop porridge. It tastes good. I'll ask Hongyu to add another bowl for you!"

Fang Shaoqin felt that this thing was a bit strange, but Gu Xiyan invited her warmly, and she came here with a heart of friendship, so naturally she would not refuse, so she nodded obediently.

Hongyu's complexion was a little strange, but she still lowered her head and brought Fang Shaoqin a bowl.

Fang Shaoqin hesitated as he looked at the bowl of meat boiled in porridge.

Gu Xiyan has already eaten several spoonfuls with relish.

Fang Shaoqin's eyes flashed a look of desperation, and he ate a small mouthful with a spoon.

The rice grains are soft and glutinous, and the aftertaste is long, with a sense of lingering fragrance.

Fang Shaoqin was refreshed.

It's not as unpalatable or weird as I imagined.

She picked up the spoon and took another sip.

Well, it tastes really good!

I got up at five o'clock in the morning and rushed to Qi's mansion. It was almost eight o'clock now. Fang Shaoqin was really hungry, so he ate one mouthful after another.

Gu Xiyan saw Fang Shaoqin staring at everything in Liyuan curiously, and was going to tease her a little, but she didn't expect to find someone who likes Cantonese porridge as much as herself.

She suddenly became happy, and warmly invited her: "From now on, if you come to greet grandma early in the morning without breakfast, come to my place for breakfast!" She laughed, "It's rare to find someone in this family who has the same taste as me. !"

Fang Shaoqin was a little surprised: "Second uncle doesn't like it?"

"Well," Gu Xiyan said indifferently, "He said it looked messy, so he wouldn't eat it no matter what."

The tone is soft, even with a little bit of playfulness, like a child who has succeeded in doing something bad.

For some reason, Fang Shaoqin felt a little bitter in his heart, as if something was about to flow out of his eyes.

She lowered her head as if to cover up, and ate the porridge carefully.

The raindrops falling outside the house seemed to be chaotic at first glance, but when you calm down, you can clearly feel the rhythm of rushing and gathering, and you can even feel the joyful jump of the raindrops without restraint.

It seems that I have returned to the military mansion in Liangdi. On this quiet rainy day, I and my brother took big pots and small pots to the eaves to catch the rain, making the house wet, and were punished to stand in the corner and used by the gentle mother. The soft voice reprimanded them in a low voice...

Fang Shaoqin felt melancholy for a moment.

Now, looking back, I'm afraid it's been a hundred years...

When she was concentrating, she heard a man's voice outside the house.

Fang Shaoqin couldn't help being startled, and stretched his neck to prop up his ears.

Seeing this, Gu Xiyan asked, "What happened?"

There was a man's voice in the inner courtyard of the deep house, and Fang Shaoqin guessed, "I'm afraid the second uncle is back."

Gu Xiyan was also startled, and hurriedly told Mo Ju beside her: "Go and see!"

Mo Ju went away in response, but turned back quickly, and said with a smile, "It's Siping."

"Siping?" Gu Xiyan asked in surprise, "What is he doing here? But is there something urgent for you to tell me?"

Mo Ju shook his head and said: "It's nothing, it's raining, I'm afraid Madam will get wet, so I sent him to come and see if Madam is back."

When Fang Shaoqin heard this, his smile seemed a little stiff.

* * * * * *
After breakfast, it rained harder and harder.

Fang Shaoqin looked at the majestic heavy rain outside the window, felt the warm breath from the glass lamps in the house shining on the pear wood furniture, the vigor of the maids when they came in and out, and the freshness of the green potted plants in the corner, everything made people feel comfortable and happy .

And Peanut Hutong is always deserted... No matter how much I smile, I can't get rid of the indifference and unfamiliarity that is imprisoned in the air.

Suddenly, she felt filthy and at a loss, like a piece of ice that suddenly fell into the fragrant tea, destroying its tranquility...

Fang Shaoqin stood up, ready to leave.

Gu Xiyan also stood up, she still remembered Hong Luan who had just moved here.

I don't know if she is used to Xiaoyue's environment!
"Shaoqin, go sit in my room! I'm still going to see Hongluan, if you're bored, there are still my usual idle books on the end of the kang..."
