Gu Jiuge smiled and poured 70% tea into her cup without asking her what it was.
The less you ask, the more likely she will speak out, and asking will backfire.
Seeing that Yin Jixie bit her lip and refused to speak, Gu Jiuge changed the subject, "There have been a lot of things happening in the mansion recently, and I have made up my mind not to drink anymore, so I have to wrong Miss Yin to accompany me to drink tea."
"Why?"
Yin Jixie regretted it after asking the question.
What else could it be, if you think about it, you know, it must be the marriage between Yufu and Gu Shubai.
Yin Jizheng wanted to find out his attitude, "The eldest son of your family is engaged to the princess of Zhenjiang. I haven't congratulated the second son on this matter. People are in good spirits on happy occasions. I thought the second son invited me to the restaurant for a drink, but it turned out not to be."
Gu Jiuge paused for a moment, then smiled, "If I want to drink, I will not go to Miss Yin. Miss Yin is gentle and elegant, just like this cup of tea, with a lingering fragrance. If I want to drink, I must go to the river and find a musician to listen to." Wouldn't it be nice to play a pipa and get drunk until tomorrow morning?"
"Then why not look for it?"
"Quit, it's boring to drink too much, tea is better."
Yin Jiyu's face turned red.
Does he mean that other women are wine, but she is the only one who is tea
Yin Jiyu lowered her head and glanced at the tea in the cup. The aroma of this tea was so extraordinary that even she had never drunk it before.
She picked up the teacup and tasted it, uncertain: "Is this the new tribute tea from the palace? I have never drank it, so I don't know if I guessed it right."
"Miss Yin's taste is naturally unmistakable. This is what His Majesty gave Yu Fu. She said that although she does not live in the palace, the tribute in the palace includes Princess Danyang's share and her share. I specially sent someone to send it to the Marquis. But my father also got the tribute tea from His Majesty, so Yufu put a lot of tea in the restaurant to entertain distinguished guests."
It is impossible for the best tea in other restaurants to be as good as the newly arrived tribute tea from the palace, and Yushanlou stood out immediately.
Yin Jixie secretly sighed, she couldn't see that Yufu was still a good business material.
She is really versatile, smart and cautious, no wonder Gu Jiuge likes her.
"I see. Your Majesty really values Gu Houye. In the past, the difference between the two houses was not so big. Now His Majesty loves Gu Houye even more than before. Presumably it has something to do with kneeling in front of the God of Medicine. Even I heard When I arrived, I broke into a cold sweat, I didn't expect that Lord Gu Hou would be so wronged by His Majesty now that he is in a high position."
Gu Jiuge said modestly: "My father has always been like this, but outsiders always think that those who hold great power must be arrogant. As for the prime minister's mansion, the old prime minister is not in the imperial capital, and your brother is a junior. Naturally, in His Majesty's heart, he is not as considerate as the old minister. It will be fine after a while."
"No."
For some reason, Yin Jixi felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, "I deeply admire Gu Houye's behavior. As for my eldest brother, he is only a young man, so he shouldn't stand shoulder to shoulder with Gu Houye."
Gu Jiuge lowered his head and sipped his tea, thinking that what he expected was right, there really was a quarrel between the siblings.
Otherwise, no matter how busy Yin Shuo was, it would be impossible for his own sister to lose weight like this and leave him alone.
"As the prime minister, your elder brother acts properly in government affairs. I just despise him. I can't even take care of my own sister. Wouldn't I let the old prime minister down?"
Yin Jiyu lowered her eyes, with tears in her eyes, "Everywhere is like Princess Zhenjiang. I am so lucky to have brothers like you who love her so much."
"If Yufu is the younger sister of our mother, we will only love her more."
Yin Jizheng's hands trembled, and she accidentally dropped the teacup on the ground. The newly brewed tea in the cup was emerald green in color, and spilled on the ground before it was fully brewed.
Yin Jixi squatted down to tidy up, "It's a pity, such a good tea was beaten by me before it was outstanding."
Her hand was suddenly grabbed, and then a force led her to stand up.
Gu Jiuge frowned slightly, "As a young lady, don't you know how to cherish yourself so much? What if your finger is cut by broken porcelain?"
Yin Jixie was reprimanded by him in a daze, and it took her a while to recover.
Her tears were pattering down.
Gu Jiuge panicked.
He stays in the flowers and does not touch his body. He has always been able to deal with women, but he can't see them shed tears.
"Okay, I'm rude, I shouldn't blame you, I didn't mean it, so don't cry."
Yin Jiyu shook her head while weeping, "No, I'm not because of this... I was just thinking, why are you so gentle when scolding people? I have nothing to do with you, why do you treat me so well?"
Gu Jiuge was taken aback, "Is this considered good?"
Yin Jiyu nodded desperately.
At least for her, no one has ever treated her so well in her life.
Obviously she had nothing to do with Gu Jiuge, she was just sent to be close to Gu Jiuge, even if she was injured, her brother who was connected by blood should feel sorry for her.
Unfortunately, Yin Shuo will never do it.
She could imagine that if Yin Shuo saw the scene just now, he would watch her hand being cut coldly, and then ridicule her for being stupid.
Only Gu Jiuge would scold her for this, grab her hand and move away.
Gu Jiuge was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Silly girl, don't worry about things. I'll ask Yuguan to make some tea for you to take home, and you can drink it slowly."
Yin Ji smiled through tears, "You're stupid, it's not because I love tea!"
At this moment, she forgot Yin Shuo's warning.
Looking at Gu Jiuge's peach blossom eyes full of love, her body softened and she fell into it...
