In the blink of an eye, the heavy sun was approaching, and Gu Yun had already left for more than two months. After the summer day, Xie Jingxi once again had the leisure to lie under the grape arbors built in the courtyard.
Ming Yu squatted on the ground and teased Xie Bakuai, while eating the orange meat and feeding the tangerine peel to Xie Bajie, she laughed complacently, ”Girl, I feel that this year's tangerine was especially sweet. I think the tangerine peel is also very sweet, let's have a bite first, so that you don't have to eat the meat all day and become as fat as a pig.”
Xie Bakuai also felt that this girl was extremely stupid. She had a good temper and couldn't bite off her finger in one bite.
A few days ago, Xie Jingxi found the time to visit the manor and conveniently carried Xie Bakuai back. Ming Yu finally found a playmate to tease and challenge the bottom line of Xie Ba's temper, but she was not embarrassed by it, ”How did it know that orange peel can't be eaten, it's really not stupid at all?”
Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?
The Gu family's eldest young master had a wide range of businesses, and every season, he would send over a few specialties from various places. The honey oranges were sent over for him two days, and were indeed somewhat better than what he had eaten previously, so he guessed that it was probably because of Gu Yun's special instructions. Since he was still in the mood to send over the oranges, it should be good, but he reckoned that he would be back in a month or two.
Xie Jingxi and the Lady Zeng were all invited to the palace. In addition, and the other young mistresses from the aristocratic families had also come, so they came to Xie Jingxi's room early in the morning to find clothes to wear.
Quick, good Ming Yu, find me a few sets of clothes of your girls. I don't even have any clothes on.
Gu Wan was wearing men's clothes all year round, so she didn't really care about these girls' things. She only had two or three sets of clothes to take out, and her jewelry was pitifully few as well.
Xie Jingxi said to Ming Yu: ”Go and take the set of bright red clothes that I've just made. Wan'er, on the other hand, is even more suitable for this color than me.
”Jingwan, you're too good!” Gu Wan immediately threw herself over, and almost threw Xie Jingxi to the ground, ”If I were a man, I would also marry a wife like you.”
Xie Jingxi shivered, ”Stay away from me …”
Gu Wan smiled mischievously as she changed into a new set of clothes. In the blink of an eye, she seemed to have changed into a different person. When Xie Jingxi looked at her coldly, she immediately felt that her Wan'er was also a beauty.
”So I'm actually this good-looking!” Gu Wan looked at herself in the mirror, the beauty was hard to understand, ”It's just that my head is a bit heavy, but it's rare to see a beauty, so I endured it.”
Xie Jingxi thought, I can't give it to you if I don't.
Fang Dai snickered from behind, she knew what her wife was thinking, but it was true that it was a pretty sight, the key point was that it was hard to come by beads, since Xie Jingxi had never worn it before, so leaving it behind was a pity, it was suitable for Gu Wan.
The things that Xie Jingxi gave out were not ordinary goods, once shshewas dressed, not only did she cause a stir in the capital, he also became the leader of a flock of chickens. On the way to the palace, many ladies surrounded him and asked around, Gu Wan had never been attacked because of her clothes before, so she was not used to it.
”Is this a new appearance that was coincidentally spun out? It's really pretty, and this face is made by someone else. It really matches the color of this body.”
”That's right, it's rare to see the Gu family's third mother dress up. She was born pretty, but this is even more amazing. Today, standing in front of her, we've even lost our luster.”
Gu Wan said. ”How would I know about this, it was all given to me by my sister-in-law. Hurry up and stop laughing at me, I don't even know how to walk.”
”Haha …” Gu Wan made them all burst out laughing.
”Such harmony between sister-in-law and sister-in-law is really enviable.” Zheng Peiru was saying this to Xie Jingxi, so she nodded to Xie Jingxi in a familiar manner.
Xie Jingxi replied politely: ”It's Wan'er who is likeable.”
Imperial Noble Consort Shen saw it and said it straightforwardly, ”Is this our Gu Sanniang? I didn't even recognize her when she was walking all the way here, and even said that a beautiful lady from another house was like this. Come over and let me have a look.”
Recently, Second Prince's popularity had risen greatly, and now it was the age of marriage again. However, whenever Imperial Noble Consort Shen looked at any young lady twice, they would be discussed for a long time in private, and because of what they said about Zhang Yushi, news of her marrying to Second Prince spread out in a few days, otherwise, Zhang Yushi would not be able to be so arrogant, and would only wish to use her nose to look at others.
