Gu Sui'er lowered her head and said, "It's nothing. I just came from the old lady's place and was about to go back. It happened to rain, so I couldn't help but take another look."

Xiao Heng followed her line of sight and looked at the sky. There was no trace of the gray sky.

"Tianliang, go back." Xiao Heng said lightly.

"Um."

Xiao Heng put his hand on Gu Sui'er's arm and walked back with her.

While walking, he suddenly asked: "Why are you dressed so thinly?"

Gu Sui'er was slightly startled and whispered: "I didn't expect that Tian'er suddenly became cold, and I didn't put on any clothes."

Xiao Heng's hand slid down and squeezed her hand.

It was really a pinch, because he held her hand with his middle finger and thumb.

"Nanny An." Xiao Heng's tone was unhappy.

"Third Master." Nanny An immediately understood what this bad-tempered Third Master meant: "Because I came out in a hurry today, I didn't expect it to be cold outside and didn't put on more clothes. I will definitely pay attention to this in the future."

Xiao Heng didn't say anything else. He took off his large cloak and hugged her narrow shoulders that shrank in the autumn wind.

She raised her eyes to look at him, but saw that his face was still as pale as ice and snow, and even his black eyes had no warmth at all.

But the warmth brought by the white brocade cloak is real.

"Thank you, Third Master." In fact, the chill on her body was real, but she didn't feel too cold. She had suffered more than this in the countryside, and she had long been used to it.

But when someone put a cloak on herself, she realized that being warm was always more comfortable than being cold.

Xiao Heng held her hand and walked forward, bypassing the corridor and passing through the Crescent Gate.

Gu Sui'er lowered her head slightly. She saw the gorgeous white brocade cloak undulating like water waves as she walked, and she also saw the beautiful indigo robe corners of the man walking beside her.

The wind blew the wet dead leaves flying sideways in front of her eyes, and she felt like she had stepped into the painting.

At this moment, there was an illusion that she was not a humble country girl, but a woman wearing a gorgeous cloak, who could walk side by side with him in the Houmen compound that only appeared in the New Year paintings.

"What did you do at the old lady's place?" he asked suddenly, but he did not look at Gu Sui'er.

"It's nothing. The old lady was playing cards and I was watching from the side." Gu Sui'er whispered meekly.

"Can you fight?" As he said this, he happened to walk to a step, and he supported her with a little force on his hand.

"No." His lowered eyes happened to see the hands he was holding on to her. The raised finger bones were white and beautiful.

She had noticed the long fingers of those hands, even the fingernails were neatly manicured.

As if feeling something, Xiao Heng looked at her.

"I'm illiterate." She bit her lip and whispered, "I don't even know what's written on the cards."

"I gradually got to know you. Playing cards is not difficult." Although Xiao Heng's voice was cold, there was an almost invisible warmth in his eyes: "If I have time, I can teach you."

"Thank you, Third Master." Gu Sui'er was flattered.

While they were talking, the group of people in front of them walked across from each other. Gu Sui'er had never seen him before, but he was dressed in rich clothes and followed by two boys, so he knew that he was not an ordinary person.

When the man saw Xiao Heng, he smiled and said, "Third brother, why are you back home now?"

When Gu Sui'er heard this, she knew that this was Xiao Jue, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, who was also Li Xiurong's husband. She heard that this eldest son Xiao was now an official in the court and had an excellent future, and everyone praised him. Even Nanny An once said that she would definitely inherit the title of Marquis Ruiding from now on.

Gu Sui'er didn't quite understand what Nanny An said, but she knew that this was a person of extremely noble status, perhaps even more noble than Xiao Heng.

She quickly wanted to take her hand out of Xiao Heng's and bowed her head in salute, but Xiao Heng held her hand and refused to let go.

She struggled slightly, but he just squeezed her hand with three fingers, but she couldn't break free.

I had no choice but to lower my head and say nothing, not to mention not daring to break free.

Xiao Heng looked at his eldest brother, his face still calm: "I have nothing to do."

Xiao Jue listened and said with a smile: "It's rare that my third brother is fine. As a brother, I even said that I would go have a drink with you."

As he said this, he looked at Gu Sui'er next to him, and then he realized that Xiao Heng was holding Gu Sui'er's hand and wouldn't let go.

"Is this - Aunt Gu?"

Obviously Xiao Jue knew about Gu Sui'er.

"Sui'er has met the eldest son." Gu Sui'er quickly bowed down, but because her hand was pinched by Xiao Heng, she couldn't bow deeply.

"No courtesy." Xiao Jue looked at Xiao Heng's hand tightly holding Gu Sui'er's hand with a smile, and found it quite interesting: "The third brother has made great contributions to the Dandong ink embezzlement case."

Xiao Heng's eyebrows were cold: "Brother, is something wrong?"

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "Aren't I going to have sex with my third brother?"

Xiao Heng: "Then let's talk another day."

Xiao Jue still smiled and looked at Gu Sui'er who lowered his head and dared not say anything with a smile: "Okay, then I will come over some other time and we brothers can have a good chat."

After bidding farewell to Xiao Jue, the two of them turned a corner and arrived at Tingzhu Garden.

Xiao Heng finally let go of Gu Sui'er's hand.

This made Gu Sui'er breathe a sigh of relief.

As soon as I stepped into the yard, I saw the nanny next to the eldest mistress and the maids next to the second mistress were all there, talking to Baoya in the yard.

When they saw Xiao Heng back, they all came forward to pay their respects.

Xiao Heng glanced at the large baggage placed beside them: "What is this?"

The grandma hurriedly accompanied her and said with a smile: "The eldest young lady asked the old slave to come over. She said that she had some autumn and winter clothes from last year's pregnancy. She asked the old slave to bring them over for Aunt Gu to wear first."

The maid also followed suit and said, "Second Young Mistress also found some and asked the slave to deliver them to Aunt Gu."

Xiao Heng nodded: "Thank you to the eldest young lady and the second young lady for me."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two large bags of clothes were brought to Gu Sui'er's room. After all, she was only fifteen years old. She naturally liked the clothes when she saw them, so she couldn't help but spread them out and look at them one by one.

Although these clothes are old clothes, they are not old at all. Some of them are brand new and do not look like they have been worn.

"The eldest mistress and the second mistress are naturally in need of clothes. Some may be given by others, and some may not fit after they are made and not worn." Aunt An touched the clothes with satisfaction: "Look, these are all good materials. It’s just right for this season, it keeps you warm and looks good.”

As he spoke, he took out another fine brocade dress with cloud and wild goose patterns. It was loosened from the lower part of the chest. It was matched with a loose dark floral elastic pattern skirt. He couldn't help but praise it: "This looks good, little madam, please try it."

Gu Sui'er's eyes also lit up, and she took it over and said she wanted to try it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, an announcement came from outside, and the little maid came in, saying that the seamstress from the clothing store outside had brought someone to help the little lady make clothes.

Nanny An and Gu Sui'er were stunned. You looked at me and I looked at you.

Finally, Nanny An said, "Could it be that the old lady invited me here? Let me in first."

Gu Sui'er always listened to Nanny An: "Yeah."

The seamstress was a woman of about thirty or forty years old, with a round face and kind eyebrows. She looked at Gu Sui'er with a smile, and helped Gu Sui'er measure her. Finally, she asked about the month of pregnancy, and finally said: "It must be better than what she is now." If the weight is a little looser, the belly will still be bigger before giving birth."

Gu Sui'er naturally had nothing to say and listened to the seamstress in everything.

Before the tailor left, she couldn't help but ask: "But the old lady invited you here?"

Upon hearing this, the seamstress shook her head: "I heard from our shopkeeper that the third master of the house just sent someone to call him, saying that he wanted to make clothes for the wife of the house."

After giving it to the seamstress, both Gu Sui'er and Aunt An were a little surprised. Finally, Gu Sui'er said, "Then should I go and thank Third Master?"

Aunt An also felt that this was something she didn't expect: "Though Mr. Third looks cold and doesn't like to talk, he is actually a caring person."

As she said that, she once again looked at the little lady she was serving. Needless to say, she was first-class in appearance and figure. If she was born into a noble family in this Marquis Mansion and was well-bred, she would probably be admired and envied by people in Yanjing City. What a stunningly talented woman.

It's a pity that I was born in a rural area and have little knowledge. I can't even read and play cards.

But fortunately, she is good-looking and charming. Not to mention the man, even the old woman likes her, not to mention the cold-faced and cold-hearted third young master, who is so attentive to her.

"Then what should I do?" Gu Sui'er was a little surprised, a little surprised, and also felt uneasy.

"Little madam, please listen to me and stay still!" Nanny An had a steady look on her face, like a marshal sitting in a military camp commanding thousands of troops: "Since the third master is interested in you, then you don't have to From time to time, you can lean in front of him to please him, and just let it be. If he treats you well, you should accept it. You have to know that with this man, you have to slowly hang on, let him think in his heart, but you can't get it easily. , this way I can put your mind at ease more."

Gu Sui'er was confused, but she listened carefully and tried to memorize it.

"What you can't get is good. If you get it, he won't care about it. You see, that precious duck Jinfu wants to crawl into his bed every day, but he doesn't care about it!"

Gu Sui'er felt it made sense and nodded repeatedly.

"Mommy, then I will listen to you. I will not thank him for making clothes today. Let's see what he says."

"Yes! And I heard what the third young master said. He also wants to teach you how to read. If he teaches you how to read, then you should study hard. Remember to touch his hand more and look at him secretly when you read. Eyes, but you can’t let him get started!”
