Chapter 847 Acquaintance
All these years, she has really been doted on by her sister-in-law to the point of heaven.
Xiao Lingsu's face flushed with embarrassment. Sister Shan is a child. Could it be that she is also a child?
"Sister Shan, this one is too tall, why don't we change it!"
Sister Shan thought for a while and nodded sensibly.
Children of two or three years old seem to be able to understand something, and they are becoming more and more well-behaved, knowing that they don't want to trouble others. Xiao Lingsu heard about Zeng Yaoqi, and immediately felt ashamed.
She touched the child's head, "Auntie will help you find another more beautiful one."
"Thank you, Auntie!" the child said in a childlike voice.
Gu Ji stopped in his tracks and stood there for a long time. He still didn't know that the princess of Nanzhang still had such a childish side.
When his mother brought him here, he knew the purpose of coming to his uncle's house today. Therefore, when the servants asked him to take him for a stroll in the yard, he did not refuse.
He has actually met Xiao Lingsu a long time ago. Although she has such a mother, since she grew up with the princess and was raised by the princess, there is nothing wrong with her.
Last time, when he was at the Xiao Mansion for a banquet, he saw that she acted very properly. Today, seeing that she was very friendly to children, he liked her even more.
"Miss, do you need my help?" Gu Ji took a step forward, saluted Xiao Lingsu, and asked.
Xiao Lingsu blushed when she saw him, and wanted to retreat a little bit, but restrained her panic, and said, "This, if possible, would be the best."
"Cousin, help my aunt and I pick that one." Baoshan was very happy when she saw Gu Ji, and pointed to the flower branch she wanted.
The flower branch is a bit tall, but Gu Ji is tall, even though he still has a little distance from the flower branch after reaching out his hand, it doesn't matter, he has a solution.
"Ma'am, please stand back a little bit. I'll shake the branches for a while, and the snow will be shaken off and stain the girl's clothes." Gu Ji said politely.
Xiao Lingsu took two steps back, blocking the nanny who was holding Baoshan behind her, watching Gu Ji reach out and pull a slightly lower flower branch down, the snow really shook and fell onto his head shoulders.
But he didn't mind at all, the flower branch they were looking at was lowered, he used the other hand to grab the flower branch, folded it lightly, and the flower branch fell into his hand.
Gu Ji smiled, turned around and handed the flower branch to Xiao Lingsu. Xiao Lingsu looked at his white and slender hands, which were set off like bamboo knots by the red plums, and couldn't help but blushed. She lowered her eyes and took the flower branch.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu!" Xiao Lingsu raised her head, "Snow has fallen on your body, you better take it off quickly, your clothes will be wet after a while, and you will catch the wind and cold carefully."
"It's okay, I'll change when I get back."
The two looked at each other, Xiao Lingsu was still shy after all, turned around and left with Baoshan, she handed the flower branch to Baoshan for a sniff, "In a moment, let's go back and choose a plum vase to put flower branches in! Put it in the burnt earth dragon There will be a dark fragrance in the house."
"Okay, Auntie, let's choose a beautiful one."
Looking at the people who left, Gu Ji patted the snow on his body and head, as if he saw the future.
Xie Zhiwei sat and talked with Mrs. Zeng, Mrs. Gu, and Zeng Yaoqi for a while, and then a maid came in quickly with a smile on her face. She stopped talking, and Mrs. Zeng also asked eagerly, "What's wrong?"
Mrs. Zeng was overjoyed, and said "Amitabha" before remembering and asked, "Are they still happy watching?"
"Look at this servant girl, the two should know each other."
Just as she was talking, a voice came from outside, "Princess Nanzhang, Cousin girl!"
The servant girl hurriedly stood aside, and the people in the room saw the flower branch in Xiao Lingsu's hand. She only felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit weird, but she didn't care. In the arms of the eldest wife, "Grandmother, Auntie said to find a plum vase for flower arrangement."
"Where did this red plum come from? It's so beautiful!" Xie Zhi smiled.
Mrs. Gu is now more and more satisfied with Xiao Lingsu, afraid of embarrassing Xiao Lingsu, she took over the conversation, "I don't know, but there are a few red plum trees planted in the northeast corner of the backyard. When you go back, fold a few and go back to arrange flowers."
"Okay, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient!" She took Xiao Lingsu's hand and leaned over to smell the fragrance of flowers.
Baoshan led Xiao Lingsu to pick out a plum vase, and after placing the flowers, it was already lunch time. After lunch, Xie Zhiwei took a rest in the wing room. Zeng Yaoqi came to talk to her for a while, and she Goodbye.
On the road, due to the thick snow and ice, the car was moving very slowly. In the car, the aunt and sister-in-law chatted for a while, and Xie Zhiwei asked Xiao Lingsu, "How do you feel?"
Xiao Lingsu was shy, deliberately did not understand Xie Zhiwei's words, lowered her head and blushed, "I don't understand what my sister-in-law is asking?"
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Okay, you are still playing narrow-minded in front of me, so I will ask you, what do you think of Mr. Gu? Have you met him before?"
Only then did Xiao Lingsu remember that when she saw Gu Ji, she recognized Gu Ji at a glance. Gu Ji did not declare his family background, but he also recognized her at a glance. Immediately, she felt a heartbeat I couldn't stand it anymore.
After a long time, she nodded, her voice was like a gnat, "Last time, at home, he came to a banquet..."
This is really fate!
Look at this, Xie Zhiwei also knows, she doesn't need to ask anything.
The next day, Zeng Yaoqi came to ask questions and learned that Xiao Lingsu was very satisfied. She smiled and said, "You don't know, my cousin heard that my aunt was going to hire him the princess of Nanzhang County, so I made it for my aunt. A deep bow."
Teased Xie Zhiwei into a big laugh.
Since both parties were satisfied, Mrs. Gu began to discuss who to invite to be Baoshan.
The Gu family has been away from the imperial court for many years. They couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, and they were in a hurry. Cui Yingqing came to the door, "I heard that you are going to marry the Prince Xiang's mansion. I don't know if you have found Baoshan. If not, can I do it?" Fill it up?"
Gu Yan then lamented that Xie Zhiwei was a proper person in every way, he got up and bowed to Cui Yingqing, "Thank you, Mr. Cui, this couldn't be more proper!"
Cui Yingqing is the minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Cui family. It is really honorable to help their family make this Baoshan.
It's just that the Chinese New Year is about to come, and it's not suitable to come to propose a marriage at this time, and it seems disrespectful to the woman, so she decides that Cui Yingqing will officially help the Gu family come to the door after the New Year is over.
Mrs. Zhao hesitated for several days, and finally decided to come to Xiao Mansion in person.
Although there is no serious mother-in-law in the family, she really doesn't want to do something that is arrogant because it will embarrass Xie Zhiwei in the future.
