The Guhou Mansion fell into silence a few years ago. During the Chinese New Year, only a few trusted generals of the Gu family army came to pay New Year's greetings.
The New Year's greetings that were crowded with people in previous years no longer exist. Those who were afraid of Ning Chengzhi and Yin Shuo did not dare to come, and Gu Huaijiang who dared to come did not let them come.
"The Marquis Gu's mansion is now on the cusp of the storm, and the Marquis understands everyone's kindness, so don't be implicated."
Gu Huaijiang has no self-pity, instead he thinks of the courtiers everywhere, this kind of loyalty is moving and embarrassing.
It was finally the Lantern Festival, and the mansion also hung up lanterns like in previous years. Gu Shubai and other younger generations wanted to visit Lin'an at night to watch the lanterns, so the mansion had a lively atmosphere.
"Second brother, when are you going to pick up Ji Yao?"
Seeing that it was getting late, everyone gathered in the west chamber, Yu Fu asked Gu Jiuge.
Gu Jiuge said: "She said it would be inconvenient to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pick her up, but it would be easier for her to come by herself. Fortunately, she is a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so even if others see her walking towards Gu Hou's Mansion, they will not implicate her."
Yu Fu nodded, a little anxious, "Ji Yao is not allowed to be free in the mansion, and I don't know if her father and brother will let her go out!"
"Miss, gentlemen, eat some glutinous rice balls before going out!"
Aunt Li, Lianzhu, and Lianbi came up with glutinous rice balls, and the warm and sweet aroma spread in the room. Everyone ate the glutinous rice balls while waiting for Yin Jixie to come.
"Aw!"
A white shadow sniffed the fragrance and rushed into the inner room. Gu Hanmo grabbed the white shadow by the tail with quick eyesight and quick hands.
"Aww!"
It turned out to be the white fox sent by Zhuangzi from the countryside. Yufu raised it with Fat Jiu and named it Fat Wu.
It was caught by the tail by Gu Hanmo, and immediately arched its two front paws pitifully, like a human bowing to each other.
Everyone laughed when they saw this, Gu Yi almost spit out the glutinous rice balls in his mouth, tried hard to control himself, but still spit out a sesame seed, which landed on Gu Xiang's cheek.
The two twin brothers fought instantly.
Fat Nine took a nap and looked around in the kennel, but didn't find his new partner, so he moved his round body and spread his four short legs forward.
Hearing the sound of Gu Xiang and Gu Yi fighting, it poked its head out on the back porch and rushed in with a howl.
It said it was jumping, but in fact its four little fat legs couldn't run fast at all. Gu Hanmo heard the cry from the other side and put Fat Five on the ground.
Fat Nine and Fat Five were playing together, Bai Ying and Fat Bai Ying were tossing up and down, Gu Jiuge suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, "Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother, does this look like you two are fighting?"
Gu Xiang and Gu Yi stared at their movements, only to see Fat Nine's short claws flicking around, and finally relying on his weight advantage to press Fat Five under his buttocks, Fat Wu screamed.
So in Gu Jiuge's mind, the two of them are so bad at skills
The two were relentless, and they were not willing to let go until Gu Jiuge admitted that he had said something wrong.
Yufu laughed as he ate the glutinous rice balls. It took him a long time to eat two, and he found that there was something clever in Mrs. Li's glutinous rice balls. "Big brother, what kind of stuffing are your glutinous rice balls?"
Gu Shubai said: "The ones are stuffed with black sesame seeds, yours are stuffed with sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, what kind of stuffing is the second brother's?"
Gu Jiuge was busy playing with them, and then went to look at the glutinous rice balls in the bowl. He picked up one and took a bite. The sticky white glutinous rice balls revealed pink fillings, which looked very delicious.
"Well, it's stuffed with roses."
Lianbi stood aside, suddenly blushed and lowered her head slightly, Yu Fu happened to see her expression, suddenly realized.
"Yu Fu!"
A familiar voice came from outside the courtyard, and Lianbi immediately picked up the tray on the table and retreated from the back porch with her head lowered.
Yin Jixie walked in cheerfully, her steps were brisk, and she was completely different from the sick Xi Shi who was walking three steps before, everyone in the room was quite shocked.
Seeing the strangeness, Yu Fu stepped forward and pulled her, "You counted it here, why are you so happy?"
Aunt Li served her a bowl of glutinous rice balls, and Yin Jiyu sat down to eat without any hesitation, Gu Jiuge raised her eyebrows slightly.
It's been a long time since I saw her, why is she completely changed...
When I told her the mystery of her life experience back then, her tearful eyes were still in my mind, but now her informal and cheerful attitude really has the taste of a general.
There was an indescribable strangeness in his heart, and he only heard Yin Jixie say while eating: "I wanted to sneak out by climbing the wall, and didn't want my father to find out. He asked me where I was going, and I answered him truthfully. You I don't know how nervous I was at that time, I thought, if he doesn't agree, I'll ask him why he targeted Gu Hou's house so many times, why he didn't stop His Majesty when he saw the absurdity!"
When Gu Shubai and the others heard the words, they were quite touched.
Yu Fu hurriedly said: "After all, he is your father, how can you talk to him like this? Besides, I don't think the old prime minister intentionally made the court situation like this, at least he helped us persuade Yin Shuo, but it was unsuccessful. "
Yin Jixie smiled and said: "Yes, I used to think that my father and elder brother were the same, but now it seems that they are different. When my father heard that I was coming to Guhou's mansion, he just kept silent for a moment, and then ordered someone to set up a car. The horse sent me here and told me to be careful on the road."
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard this.
It seems that the separation between the old prime minister and Yin Shuo's father and son has become a fact...
Yin Jizheng frowned suddenly, "It's so sour... how come there are kumquat fillings in these glutinous rice balls?"
She had eaten well before, but this one was an extremely sour kumquat, and when she spit it out, the filling was green.
No wonder it is so sour, it is clearly an immature kumquat.
Aunt Li came up to her guiltily, "Miss Yin, drink some tea and rinse first. It's strange, why are there sour kumquat fillings? I'm obviously looking at them..."
Gu Xiang testified to Aunt Li, "Yes, I ate up this bowl. It's a sweet kumquat, why is there a sour one?"
Yu Fu looked back towards the back porch, looking at the direction Lian Bi left, and couldn't help pursing her lips into a smile.
She got up and took Yin Jiqian's hand, "Okay, okay, don't think about it, let's go out to enjoy the lanterns!" Yin Jiqian smiled and walked side by side with her, while Gu Jiuge lagged behind.
His eyes fell on Yin Jizheng's back, his expression became more complicated, and Gu Shubai suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
"In the past, you didn't like Ms. Yin, but now Ms. Yin doesn't take the initiative to get close to you. Do you feel very disappointed instead?"
Gu Jiuge was told what was on his mind, and he refused to admit it after being beaten to death, "How could it be? There are so many women who are close to me, and after all of them leave, I feel lost. Doesn't the loss never end?"
"Then why are you staring at people like this?"
Gu Jiuge looked away guiltily, "I'm just curious, when did she and Yufu have such a good relationship? Brother, I don't think that after every woman gets close to Yufu, she can't help but be attracted to her and fall in love with her." Sexual?"
Gu Shubai thought for a while, then nodded slightly, "You mean Miss Yin's temperament is much brighter and sharper? I feel the same way."
"Not only her, but also that Xikun princess. When she first came to Dongling, she endured the humiliation. After being with Yufu, she became much bolder, and she is no longer as forbearing as she was at the beginning."
Gu Shubai thought of Yin Jixie's sour glutinous rice balls, and thought that they were not the only two who became bolder after being together with Yufu, but Gu Jiuge didn't know it.
As the night falls and the lights dim, this is the best time to watch the lights.
Gu Huaijiang ordered Qi Zhou to send them out. Gu Wenqing wanted to stay in the mansion to accompany him, but he sternly refused, "It's rare to see the Lantern Festival, so let's all go out and play. Steward Qi and I will watch the lights in the mansion, and we don't need your juniors to accompany us."
Yu Fu came back on the way and wanted to bring him the new dim sum made by Yu Shan Lou, everyone resigned from Gu Huaijiang and went out happily.
Yin Jixie said as she walked, "Shall we go in a carriage? I don't know how to ride a horse."
Yu Fu said with a smile: "It is a tradition in our mansion that people don't take a carriage or ride a horse to view the lanterns. The Long Street is not far from here, just walk one street away, you see—"
Yu Fu stretched out his hand and pointed outward, the smile suddenly froze on his face.
Everyone followed her line of sight, and saw a group of ceremonial sticks coming towards Guhou's mansion. They were magnificent and grand, and the people who followed the sedan chair were very familiar.
Isn't that the Eunuch Chi next to Ning Chengzhi
Who is the person in the sedan chair, they don't even want to know.
The stick of ceremonies was parked outside the gate of the mansion, Eunuch Chi bent over and opened the sedan chair curtain, and Ning Chengzhi strode over in casual clothes, "I came at just the right time, are you going out to watch the lanterns? I will follow you tonight The tradition of the Hou Mansion is not to take a sedan chair, but to walk to watch the lanterns."
The atmosphere of joy suddenly fell to the bottom, and the smiles on everyone's faces suddenly became stiff and awkward.
