Chapter 49 Su Xingze
When the three of them walked out of the room, Su Rong picked up the unopened jug of wine on the table.
Going downstairs and walking to the door, I saw Su Xingze, dressed in black, standing in the night with his hands behind his back. He was slender, with first-class appearance and demeanor. If someone didn't know him, he might think he was the grandson of some family.
Su Rong walked a few steps quickly with the wine jar, came to Su Xingze, and handed him the wine jar in his hand, pretending to be surprised and happy, "Brother, when did you come back? This jar of drunken flowers will quench your thirst!"
Su Xing looked at her, didn't speak, and didn't take the wine in her hand. He just stared at her twice, then raised his head, passed her, looked at Zhou Guhe and Ning Chi who came out, and cupped his hands, "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Ning, nice to meet you."
Zhou Gu has been thinking about what kind of Su Xingze who can control Su Rong is like, now when he sees him, he thinks of two people like Su Taishou and Mrs. Su, but he never expects to give birth to a character like Su Xingze, who turns out to be a person as cold as the moon.
He flicked his sleeves, cupped his hands, thinking that addressing Brother Su seemed a bit unfamiliar, so he changed his words: "Brother Su."
Ning Chi smiled and cupped his hands, "Brother Su has good eyesight, how do you know it's me?"
"When I came here, I made some inquiries, and I heard that Ning Shizi is staying in this inn today." Su Xing smiled lightly, "I came to pick up the fourth son and seventh sister, and Ning Shizi also went to the prefect's mansion for a night?"
Ning Chi shook his head, "Thank you, Brother Su, for the invitation. I will leave for Nanping tomorrow, so I won't go. I have admired Brother Su's name for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today. I will take the scientific examination in the golden autumn. I wish Brother Su the title in advance."
"Alright, thank you." Su Xing didn't force it, and said to Zhou Gu and Su Rong, "Let's go!"
Zhou Gu nodded, waved goodbye to Ning Chi, someone brought a horse, and he got on it.
Seeing that Su Xingze didn't say a word to her, Su Rong knew that he was angry. She pressed the tip of her tongue to her gums, handed the drunken flower drink in her hand to the guard behind Su Xingze, and silently got on the horse.
A group of people left the inn and rode back to the city.
Ning Chi watched the group leave, and said, "As expected of Su Xingze."
On the way back to the city, there was nothing to say all the way, and soon entered the city and returned to the prefect's mansion.
Su Xing got off his horse and ordered the housekeeper who came out to welcome him, "Uncle Li, send Master Thursday back to the guest house to rest, and have someone take care of him carefully."
"Yes, young master." Li Boying said yes, and said to Zhou Gu with a smile: "Fourth young master, please, this old slave will take you back."
Zhou Gu glanced at Su Rong, seeing her listless, he wanted to say something, but seeing Su Xing's cold expression, thinking that in front of his elder brother, his fiancé who only had a thin paper marriage contract seemed to have no position, so he turned silently and followed Uncle Li.
Su Rong also wanted to leave, but with Su Xing's appearance, how could she dare to leave? She bit the bullet and leaned forward, stretched out her hand to grab Su Xingze's arm, and complained in a low voice, "Brother, you scared my fiance."
Su Xing looked down at Su Rong, but didn't speak.
Su Rong tugged at his sleeve and shook his arm, explaining to him, "It's all Jiang Sheng's fault. We stayed outside and found an inn to hide from him. Also, Ning Chi, the eldest son of Nanping Houfu, wants to talk to Zhou Gu about something. He didn't stay out at night on purpose."
Su Xingze finally had an expression on his face. He stretched out his hand to brush Su Rong away, with a look of disgust on his face, "You smell of alcohol all over your body. Mother told you to pretend to be a lady. It seems that you didn't listen. It was a waste of mother's painstaking efforts."
Su Rong: "..."
She drank a lot, so she smelled of alcohol naturally. She smiled and took Su Xingze's arm again, "Brother, why did you come back suddenly?"
There are still many days before she reaches Ji, so he came back too early, right? In addition, come back as soon as you come back, and even ran to catch her, how worried is she?
"What do you think?" Su Xing glared at her, then walked forward, "Follow me to the study."
Su Rong knew that he would definitely be lectured by him today, so she couldn't hide, so she could only keep up with him.
When I came to the study room and entered it, Su Xing sat down, looked at Su Rong and sighed, "I didn't expect my mother to send a letter to the Duke Huguo's Mansion to ask about your marriage. If I knew, I should stop my mother. Why should I wait for my scientific examination before I settle the matter with the Duke Huguo Mansion? Now it is so sudden that the Duke Huguo Mansion sent Zhou Gu to congratulate you in person. Do you really want to marry into the Duke Huguo Mansion?"
Su Rong was sitting opposite Su Xingze, leaning half on the table with his chin propped up. Hearing his words, he blinked his eyes, "Brother, what's wrong with me marrying into the Duke Huguo's mansion? One person can ascend to heaven alone. To paraphrase my mother, if I climb a high branch, everyone in our family can follow suit."
"What about you?" Su Xing asked.
"Me?" Su Rong smiled, "Zhou Gu is very good, and it's hard to find a good husband-in-law even with a lantern, so I don't suffer."
Su Xing snorted softly, "Is it okay to **** a woman from someone?"
Su Rong "uh" for a while, and felt that it was necessary to help Zhou Gu explain the reputation of being killed, "He was entrusted by someone to help other girls, but the method was useless, so everyone knew it and was misunderstood."
Su Xing raised his eyebrows.
Su Rong immediately told Zhou Gu the exact words he was entrusted with.
Su Xing listened, his face turned pale, "According to this, he is not fooling around."
"Of course it doesn't count. He's very good. Now that you're back, big brother, you'll know if you get in touch with him more." Su Rong said seriously, "I assure you, Zhou Gu is really good. If he's not good, mom and dad won't put up face and force him to live in our mansion to lure wolves into the house, right?"
Su Xing reluctantly believed her when he heard the words, "Tell me, what have you done with him since he came these few days?"
"I didn't do anything, I just played with him." Su Rong briefly talked about going to Maple Leaf River, climbing Phoenix Mountain, and visiting Taohuaxi.
What she said was really simple, and Su Xing expressed his opinion after listening, "Father and mother are also confused, how can you let you accompany him alone, without even bringing the crescent moon. I heard that my mother has started to teach you how to manage accounts. From tomorrow, I will accompany him. You can learn to be a housekeeper at home with peace of mind."
Su Rong opened his eyes wide, "Brother, isn't this bad? I want to develop a relationship with him?"
See you tomorrow~
