The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Chapter 208 The warm fragrance of nephrite

Seeing his father leaving like this, Gu Xiuming wanted to catch up and explain, but he had already seen such a thing, how else could he explain it?

He was secretly annoyed that he couldn't help but kiss Wan'er just now, but he didn't expect that his father was not far behind them. He just thought that there was no one here at night, so he was a little nervous.

Li Waner looked at the backs of the couple, and the words Gu Jingxi taught Gu Xiuming echoed in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt, and the tears in her eyes couldn't help but fall down, whimpering softly.

Gu Xiuming saw his sweetheart's tears falling down, crying like raindrops, and looking ashamed and embarrassed. He felt very distressed in his eyes and coaxed softly: "Wan'er, please don't cry. It's all my fault. It was me who just happened." Meng Lang, you didn't pay attention to the occasion, and that's why you were embarrassed."

Li Waner choked with sobs and said: "Brother Xiu Ming, your father will definitely look down on me even more in the future. He must think that I am not a good girl."

The elders didn't like her originally, and the Marquis once said that she behaved frivolously. Now that the elders see such things, they must look down on her even more, and she is even more unpopular with the elders.

Gu Xiuming also blamed himself and said comfortingly: "Wan'er, it's my fault. Don't cry. My father's anger is only temporary. My father is busy with official duties. He won't be able to remember such a small thing after two days."

Li Waner was not comforted. Whenever she thought of Master Hou's words, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and her heart felt tight.

There is also Meng Jinyao, because Meng Jinyao is brother Xiu Ming’s ex-fiancee, so every time she sees Meng Jinyao, she can’t help but want to compare, but when she sees Meng Jinyao is dignified and indifferent, she looks like she doesn’t take her seriously. , she was beaten to pieces again.

She didn't notice it before, but slowly she discovered that the dignity and elegance in Meng Jinyao's movements were cultivated since childhood and were part of her family's heritage. She couldn't learn them. Although she learned the rules, she couldn't learn the dignity and elegance of Meng Jinyao. Natural dignity.

Meng Jinyao's appearance was even better than hers, and she also had a generous dowry, which I heard was left by her biological mother. Unlike her, who only had two taels of silver to spend every month, she would buy any beautiful jewelry she saw in a jewelry store. If you can't afford it, it's just eight taels of moon silver for brother Xiu Ming.

Both of them couldn't afford the hairpin she had chosen last time at the Jinyu Pavilion with their combined money. That hairpin cost twenty taels, and compared to other more beautiful and luxurious jewelry, the one she had chosen Hairpins are relatively cheap.

And Meng Jinyao, who has a dowry, can buy a hairpin without hesitation if she likes it. This is what she envies. For the young men and girls in the first and second houses, if they don't have enough money, their mothers still have dowry supplies. The child is using it. The father is a concubine. I heard that he also has a small amount of property purchased by himself, so he will not be short of money to spend.

How different is she and Brother Xiuming? She has no dowry, and brother Xiu Ming has no private property of his own to provide for himself. He only relies on the eighty-two months of silver allocated by his father-in-law every month. Although he has a mother, how can this mother use the dowry to subsidize brother Xiu Ming?

This is probably the reason why the Gu family looks down upon her. She has nothing and is still an orphan. No matter how poor the Meng family is, they are still nobles. Meng Jinyao still has a generous dowry.

The only reason she could defeat Meng Jinyao was because she won the heart of brother Xiu Ming.

Seeing her silence and unpredictable expression, Gu Xiuming reached out to hold her hand with one hand, and wiped her tears with the other hand, saying gently: "Wan'er, don't think too much, my father is just angry for a moment. "

Li Waner sniffed, pushed back her tears, suppressed her grievances in her heart, stopped thinking about unhappy things, and forced out a smile: "Brother Xiu Ming, let's go back, I don't want to go shopping anymore."

Gu Xiuming nodded: "Okay, let's go back first."

-

In that compartment, Meng Jinyao and Gu Jingxi walked away.

Meng Jinyao looked at the man next to her and asked with a smile: "Husband, I thought you would pretend that you didn't see it. You just made it clear. Isn't this embarrassing?"

Gu Jingxi raised his eyebrows indifferently and said softly: "They don't feel embarrassed if they do such things regardless of the occasion. How can they be embarrassed after being scolded? The back garden does not belong to just the two of them. If the maid is If you see it and spread it privately, others will only say that the Gu family's children are unruly."

"That's true."

Meng Jinyao nodded slightly. If this kind of thing spreads, others will only say that the Gu family's tutoring is not good and the children they teach are unruly. They will think that maybe not only Gu Xiuming is like this, but other children as well.

Putting this topic aside for the time being, the couple returned to Wei Ruixuan, bathed and changed clothes one after another, and then went to bed.

Through the dim light, Meng Jinyao could clearly see the profile of the man lying next to him. The man was very honest when sleeping. Even if he turned around unconsciously, he was very quiet. He was basically in that position.

Meng Jinyao looked at Gu Jingxi's handsome face and couldn't help but think of the five words he said in the afternoon.

——Not entirely.

She had insomnia again. In the past few days, she couldn't help but dwell on this matter, and she couldn't help but dig out the cocoons to investigate secretly.

She shook her head and simply stopped thinking about it. She closed her eyes and prepared to sleep. However, her mind was very clear again and she was not sleepy at all. She could only lie on the bed and toss and turn, changing her sleeping position every once in a while. She gradually became irritable and rolled around. go.

She had no memory of when she finally fell asleep.

Gu Jingxi hadn't fallen asleep and wanted to ask the little girl what was wrong, but the little girl always said it was okay. He also knew that the little girl wouldn't tell him, so he simply stopped asking, thinking about what his friend said, and calmed him down slowly. .

After an unknown amount of time, the people around him finally fell asleep. He looked at the girl who unconsciously rolled into his arms. The girl's soft body was close to his, her hands were holding his waist, and her legs were resting on his lap. The hot body temperature passed over him, and the faint fragrance hit his nostrils. He was stiff and did not dare to move.

He called softly: "Madam?"

Meng Jinyao showed no reaction and was sleeping soundly.

Gu Jingxi slightly increased his volume and shouted again: "Madam?"

However, Meng Jinyao was so deep in sleep that she didn't hear his voice at all.

Gu Jingxi couldn't wake her up, so he could only freeze and look at her sweet sleeping face, but he lost sleep.

After a long time, Gu Jingxi also relaxed and stared at the girl in his arms. The nephrite was warm and fragrant in his arms. He suddenly had a subtle feeling. He could have gently corrected the little girl's sleeping posture, but when his hand touched He paused when he touched the little girl's back.

Maybe he was afraid of waking up the little girl, or maybe for other unknown reasons, he didn't want to correct himself and let the little girl hold him to sleep.
