Chapter 25 Raw rice and cooked rice

  Gu Xiyan didn't notice Zhou Mu's strangeness. The century-old apricot tree in the temple was in season for viewing, so she couldn't help feeling a little moved.

   "Young Master, you have a heart. In fact, there is no need to be anxious about my marriage. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Gu Xiyan looked in the direction of the old Xingshu.

   It was rare for Zhou Mu to see the look of longing in Gu Xiyan's eyes. Seeing that it was still early, he took a long leg and said, "I will accompany the girl for a walk in the temple."

   Without waiting for Gu Xiyan to speak, he took the lead in heading towards the old Xingshu.

  Gu Xiyan followed Zhou Mu hesitantly.

   Today the temple is not as lively as usual, and there is not a single pilgrim along the way. Isn’t it usually full of incense? Strange.

  She didn't know, because she wanted to see each other, Zhou Mu specifically confessed to the abbot that no foreign pilgrims would be accepted today.

  Zhou Mu walked in front, and Gu Xiyan followed behind him, looking at his slender and tall figure, she couldn't move her eyes.

  Some people are outstanding like this. They are obviously dressed in the most common clothes, but they are full of elegance, and their gestures are noble and elegant.

  The two walked forward in silence, and soon they came to the century-old apricot tree.

  It is autumn, and the apricot leaves turn yellow. When the wind blows, the apricot leaves fall from the branches one after another, as if it is raining.

  A thick layer of apricot leaves has been caught on the ground, and there is a slight sound when stepped on it.

   "Miss, which son do you want to see next time?" Zhou Mu's voice awakened Gu Xiyan's thoughts.

  Gu Xiyan pursed her pink lips lightly, thinking that everyone is similar. From her point of view, it's unlikely that these aristocrats will take a fancy to her, because her temperament is really unpleasant.

  She didn't answer, Zhou Mu kept staring at her: "What's wrong?"

  Gu Xiyan plucked up her courage and said, "Actually, there is no hurry, take your time..."

   "You can't take your time. If the King of Qin gets married and insists on taking you as a concubine, what should you do?" Zhou Mu's deep eyes, like spots of paint, locked on Gu Xiyan's face.

  However, Zhou Xing is also the current King of Qin, a powerful man, if he really wants to force Gu Xiyan into the Qin Palace, even he may not be able to keep an eye on him all the time.

  The most important thing is that Zhou Xing is a deep-minded person. Even if Gu Xiyan is unwilling, Zhou Xing can still cook raw rice and cooked rice by any means.

   "Then follow your master's arrangement." Gu Xiyan knew that Zhou Mu's words were reasonable, so she no longer refused.

   "Dong Yong is not good, the girl doesn't need to worry about it, the next one will be better. There are many good men in the world, and there is always one who can match the girl well." Thinking of what Dong Yong said, Zhou Mu's eyes flashed coldly.

  Gu Xiyan vaguely felt that Zhou Mu was not in a good mood, which could be seen from the tight jaw line.

   "Is the young master unhappy?" Gu Xiyan didn't take Dong Yong seriously, she only cared about Zhou Mu's emotions.

   Zhou Mu turned to look at Gu Xiyan, unexpectedly she could easily catch his emotional changes.

"My lord, there is no need to worry too much about my marriage. I think that marriage will come naturally. If you can meet someone you love, that is luck. If you don't, you can't force it." Gu Xiyan expressed her thoughts .

  Actually, she is not that keen on getting married, and even thinks that being alone is fine. If she can avoid Zhou Xing in time in this life, she may be able to get rid of the fate of her previous life.

Zhou Mu felt that Gu Xiyan's words were too depressing: "Girl was just unlucky to meet King Qin. Not every man is like King Qin. A girl is so good, you can always meet someone who understands a girl and truly loves her." The girl's lover."

  Gu Xiyan laughed dumbfounded, thinking that this person seemed to be the matchmaker.

   "Mr. Cheng said auspiciously, if Xiyan can find a lover in the future, he will definitely invite you to have a wedding wine." Gu Xiyan's lips curled up and she smiled brightly.

  She seldom smiles, but this smile is like a hundred flowers blooming, extremely beautiful, and the golden color in the eyes is eclipsed in front of her.

   Zhou Mu stared fixedly at Gu Xiyan's bright smile, thinking that there is anyone in the world who can smile so brightly, and Dong Yong thinks it's because he is blind that he can't see Miss Gu.

Not far away, Chunhua and Qiushi saw the picture of Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu standing together from a distance, and secretly lamented that these two are really talented men and women. The picture standing under the apricot tree is just like the people in the painting, too Good match.

  It's a pity, the girl said that Mr. Zhou is unmarried, otherwise he wouldn't be a matchmaker for the girl, and was in a hurry to marry the girl.

   "I heard Chunhua talk about charcoal today, but I don't know if the person who spread the rumors has been found?" Gu Xiyan pretended to mention this incident inadvertently.

Zhou Mu didn't know that Gu Xiyan was deliberately inquiring about the news, "The person who spread the rumors was the nursing home of the Qi'anbo mansion. This person accidentally heard the rumors on the street, and then it spread into the Qi'anbo mansion, and then spread out from the Qi'anbo mansion. Everyone knows. The nursing home did not benefit. According to the results of the preliminary investigation, there are two groups of people involved in this matter. One group of people wanted to use rumors to resell charcoal, but for some reason this news was known in advance, so it really got Those who benefit are not those who deliberately spread rumors."

  After he finished speaking, he saw Gu Xiyan staring at the front with a tense expression that was too serious.

   Gu Xiyan like this made him feel a little strange.

  Gu Xiyan later realized that her expression was not right, she returned to normal, "So that's the case, so is this the end of the matter?"

   It happened that there were rumors from the nursing home in Qi'anbo Mansion, and in her opinion, Xu Yongqian had something to do with this matter.

  Su Ho spread the rumor and knew that someone was secretly investigating this matter. In order not to find out about himself, Su Ho dragged Xu Yongqian into the water.

  Su Ho relied on Xu Yongqian's deep affection for her, so Xu Yongqian was willing to help her clear the suspicion.

   What a Su Ho, who has clearly lost his body to Zhou Xing, but can still hold Xu Yongqian firmly in his hands, making Xu Yongqian obey her.

   "That's the end of the matter. But one day, I will find out the real winner!"

   Zhou Mu's voice was like a thunderbolt, making Gu Xiyan's emotions tense up instantly.

  She didn't dig Zhou Mu's ancestral grave, so why should he hold onto her? She really didn't want to be followed by Zhou Mu from now on.

  She was dry-mouthed, and carefully chose her words: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Why don't you make it a small thing, my lord?"

  —

  Babies, after reading this, please give me a five-star praise. Thank you, little fairies, for your support.
