The carriage stopped and they were back at the door.

Meng Jinyao stopped thinking. When the coachman opened the carriage door, she walked to the carriage door and subconsciously stretched out a hand, thinking about asking Qingqiu or Ningdong to help her.

But when she stretched out her hand and saw no figures of Qingqiu and Ningdong, she belatedly remembered that she had gone out today without a maid, so she and Gu Jingxi, plus a driver, silently stretched out her hand. Withdrew his hand.

Gu Jingxi noticed her movement and got off the carriage before her. Then he stretched out his hand towards her and said warmly: "Madam, come here."

Meng Jinyao's expression paused, then she handed her hand to him and he helped her get out of the carriage.

On the way back to Wei Ruixuan, Meng Jinyao couldn't help but glance at Gu Jingxi frequently, the corners of her mouth turned up involuntarily, and her heartbeat started to become irregular again. She felt that Gu Jingxi was interested in her, but she was afraid that she would be overly sentimental. .

But regardless of whether he is really interested in her or not, she is very useful now. What woman doesn't want her husband to be so kind to her?

Seeing the smile on her face, Gu Jingxi thought that the haze in her heart had finally dissipated and she was no longer depressed, and she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was right to take her out to relax today. She was probably bored at home all day. A little bored.

Meng Jinyao's good mood lasted until she went to bed at night, and she fell asleep quickly and slept until dawn.

When she woke up, Gu Jingxi had already gone to Dali Temple for duty. She couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that she didn't wake up earlier. She didn't know if Gu Jingxi secretly hugged her while she was asleep last night.

afternoon.

The female shopkeeper of Jinxiufang came and said she wanted to see Mrs. Hou.

When Meng Jinyao learned about this, she looked confused. She didn't remember that she had asked the female shopkeeper of Jinxiufang to find her, but she still asked the shopkeeper to be taken to Wei Ruixuan. She didn't want to go to the front yard and living room on a hot day.

The female shopkeeper is a cheerful and crisp woman, about thirty years old. Because Jinxiufang is famous, she has met many officials and wives. She has no stage fright at this moment. She smiled and saluted: "Jin Niang has met Mrs. Gu. .”

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "The shopkeeper doesn't have to be polite, but I didn't go to Jinxiufang to place an order. Why did the shopkeeper suddenly come to me?"

The female shopkeeper replied: "That's it. Lord Gu ordered eight sets of autumn clothes for us. He said they were for Madam. He asked me to come over and ask Madam to choose the styles."

As she spoke, she handed the brochure in her hand to Meng Jinyao, and then said: "This is a newly drawn sample. No other customers have seen it yet. Mrs. Gu can rest assured that every style is unique and sold to you. It will no longer be sold to others, and you won’t be afraid of colliding with other people’s clothes when you wear them. However, the ready-made clothes will not be delivered to you until autumn, and they are only available for pre-order now.”

Meng Jinyao was surprised. A set of skirts in Jinxiufang were not cheap. Gu Jingxi directly ordered eight sets for her. Fortunately, after the incident with the twelve hairpins, she was still calm now. With a smile on her lips, she calmly accepted the ones handed over by the female shopkeeper. Booklet, he said warmly: "Then let me take a look first."

The female shopkeeper looked at Meng Jinyao calmly and found that Mrs. Changxing Hou was really a beauty. Her eyes were watery and her smile was bright and moving. Not to mention men, she was a woman who fell in love with her every time she saw her. No wonder Lord Gu is so doting on her.

Meng Jinyao flipped through the booklet, compared them, and finally selected eight skirt styles.

After the female shopkeeper left, Meng Jinyao fell into silence. After a while, she asked the other maids to retreat, leaving her two confidant maids behind.

Qingqiu and Ningdong asked in unison: "Madam, do you have anything to tell me?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head slightly, considered her words, and asked them softly: "Do you think the Marquis is really interested in me?"

As soon as these words came out, Qingqiu and Ningdong looked at each other, and then both nodded.

Qingqiu said: "Madam, although I don't have a sweetheart and don't know anything about love, I think the Marquis has affection for you."

Ningdong said with a firm tone: "Madam, I thought that Lord Hou was interested in you earlier. Judging from Lord Hou's recent behavior, it seems that he is pursuing his sweetheart."

sweetheart?

Referring to her?

Meng Jinyao couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat. The indescribable feeling came up again. All the kindness Gu Jingxi had done to her flashed through her mind, and her heartbeat accelerated. She could even hear her own heartbeat. With the sound, I felt that the position of my heart was swelling, as if something had penetrated domineeringly in a manner that was powerful and could not be refused.

The answer that was about to come out at the beginning also surfaced.

Do you like it?

Did she like Gu Jingxi a little bit? It's not a simple love that arises simply because this person has good character and talent, but the kind of love between a man and a woman. That's why in the past few days, she has been struggling with whether Gu Jingxi is interested in her, and has been tossing and turning over it. sleep.

This realization was like a thunder, which stunned her and made her unable to recover for a long time.

Ningdong saw her silence and asked worriedly: "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head gently: "No, it's okay."

But, how could she fall in love with Gu Jingxi?

She carefully recalled everything she had spent with Gu Jingxi in the past few months, and found that Gu Jingxi was really a very gentle and attentive person. He could even be called caring for her, with a strong sense of responsibility, talent, and good looks. Good-looking, even though he is a bit older, he looks young.

She thought it was normal for her to fall in love with such a man.

Ningdong saw that something was wrong with her and asked doubtfully: "Madam, are you really okay?"

Meng Jinyao felt uneasy: "He hasn't expressed his interest in me yet, what if we misunderstand?"

Qingqiu and Ningdong were stunned after hearing this. They had been masters and servants for many years. When they heard this sentence, they could probably guess that the madam was quite satisfied with the Marquis. If the Marquis had feelings for his wife, the madam would accept it.

Qingqiu meditated intently and said after a moment: "Madam, how about you test the Marquis?"

Test?

Meng Jinyao was stunned, how could she test such a thing? You can't ask insinuatingly, right?

She knew Gu Jingxi's mind very well. They were not of the same rank. She had often made insinuations and asked Gu Jingxi about other things. Gu Jingxi heard it every time. If she asked about men and women, she didn't mean it. It is also self-indulgent and difficult to end.

Qingqiu added: "I don't understand these things. If you don't want to ask, you can test it from other aspects."

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao was stunned again. She thought for a long time but couldn't think of any solution. She felt very depressed and a little irritable.

Now I don't know what they think, but she is not up to par, so she was teased by others, and she seems to like her a little bit.

Hey--

What a worry. No wonder many men lose their hair and become monks, and women become nuns. These three thousand worries will always disturb people's moods from time to time.
