Gu Changli clutched his chest and shouted: "It hurts, it hurts to death, please rub it for me."

Shuyue looked at him in surprise, Gu Changli slid and sat on the ground, holding the flower tightly in his hands, his tender eyes were full of pain, and everyone passing by looked at him curiously.

Shuyue had no choice but to drag him and sit under the magnolia tree, then said: "Gu Changli, wake up."

He slipped off the stone, sat at Shuyue's feet, and then put his head on her lap, looking like a drunk cat dependent on someone. "It really hurts, it hurts..."

Shuyue had no choice but to bend down, caress his hair, and rub his chest.

Gu Changli grabbed her hand, buried his face in her callused palm, and wept bitterly.

"Okay, don't cry." Shuyue coaxed him impatiently, if a girl fell into her arms crying, she would softly coax him.

Gu Changli shook his head childishly, "No, no, just cry."

"Alas." Shuyue sighed a long time, and could only let him cry.

After that day, when Gu Changli saw her again, his expression was a little shy.Presumably, he remembered the embarrassment of crying and falling at her feet.Shuyue's face was pale, and she didn't care.

A month passed in a blink of an eye, and Shuyue returned to the small courtyard with the newly issued salary.

Mrs. Ling and Lanyue sat under the magnolia tree to catch up with work, and the table was covered with red fabrics and beads.

Shuyue walked over and recognized that it was the red handkerchief that Shili Hongzhuang needed, which was specially used to cover things. She asked, "Which family is getting married? Or Shili Hongzhuang?"

"It's the Cui family's daughter." Lanyue said lightly.

Shuyue took a look at her, and didn't dare to ask further questions, "Oh, the scene is quite big."

Madam Ling said in a bad tone: "Naturally, after all, it is the Hou family who married a wife."

What they did was just a drop in the bucket of red makeup. Mrs. Ling's heart was bleeding, but in order to make a living, she had to sew a dowry for the daughter of her former enemy.

Shuyue didn't need to ask any more questions. Looking at the expressions of their mother and daughter, she knew that it was indeed Cui Jinyin, the young lady of the Cui family who had always been at odds with Lanyue in her impression.

She looked at her younger sister full of pity, and asking Lanyue to sew a dowry for Cui Jinyin was really enough to upset her.

Lanyue's expression was indifferent, showing no joy or anger.

Shuyue handed over all her salary to Madam Ling, and Madam Ling took it all without being polite.

She said, "I'll save it for you as a dowry."

Madam Ling was still not reconciled, and had been working hard to find a suitable husband's family for them.It's just that it's really hard to find. Madam Ling is going to see if there are any good people who want to continue.

During the meal, Mrs. Ling talked about this matter again, probably because the fact that Miss Cui's family was going to get married stimulated her.Shuyue and Lanyue buried their heads in the meal in tacit understanding, letting Mrs. Ling feel there, and occasionally Tan Nu would speak cautiously.

"That girl Cui Jinyin is not as well-behaved as Lan'er, but her family background has always been good, otherwise the Zuo Hou Lord would not have married her." Mrs. Ling rambled, aggrieved.

Cui Jinyin's mother and her are deadly rivals, and they used to fight secretly, but Mrs. Ling obviously lost completely now.

In Shuyue's impression, there is also the appearance of Cui Jinyin, a girl who is two years younger than Lanyue. Every time she visits Ling's mansion, she is very cute. Speaking of which, she is indeed more cute than Lanyue, but she is not as beautiful as Lanyue. Good looking.I don't know what she looks like now, probably not as good-looking as Lanyue.

She was thinking casually, when she suddenly heard the name Zuo Cangyu, she bit the rice in her mouth, a little stunned.

"This Lord Hou's name is indeed Zuo Cangyu, right?" Mrs. Ling turned sideways and asked Tan Nu who had come to inquire about the news.

Tan Nu nodded, "It's the one who has a good relationship with the young master of the Xi family." She actually inquired about the affairs of the Gaomen in the capital clearly, even Mrs. Ling was not as clear as she was.

Lanyue finally couldn't help it, and said: "Mother, Cui Jinyin is not that bad, it's just right for this Lord Zuo."

Chapter 7 The Lakeside

When Shuyue went out, Mrs. Ling and Lanyue were already sitting under the magnolia tree rushing to work.I heard that the marriage was decided in a hurry, so all the major embroidery shops in Kyoto were dispatched to catch up with the work.

She still greeted them first before going out.

The street was clean and tidy in the morning, Shuyue saw Gu Changli standing in front of the steamed stuffed bun shop buying breakfast.

She walked over and patted Gu Changli on the shoulder.

Gu Changli turned around, the bun in his hand almost rolled out of the paper bag, Shuyue quickly reached out to hold his wrist, "Why are you in such a hurry."

Gu Changli said lazily, "I'm not panicking."

Holding the bag in his hand, he walked towards the yamen side by side with Shuyue while eating.

Next to the yamen is Jingshi Yin's residence, so when they walked to the door and saw Mr. Jingshi Yin going out, they stood and waited for him to go in before leaving.

The lavender skirt flickered at the door, and with the support of the maid, a sleepy-eyed beautiful lady stepped out and walked up to Mr. Yin, the capital city.

She reached out and handed him a hairpin, "My lord, you forgot to wear this again."

Jingshi Yin's slightly old face smiled warmly in the morning sun, then lowered his head slightly, letting his concubine wear it.

This beautiful lady is none other than Aunt Lan whom Shuyue met under the magnolia tree a few days ago.She blushed, hurriedly put the hairpin on for him, then turned around and walked into the mansion with some guilt.

The servants next to him lowered their heads, not daring to look, let alone go out and talk nonsense.

Shuyue looked at this scene, and said: "Master Yin of Jingshi has a good relationship with his wife. Standing at the door, he shows his affection like this."

Gu Changli next to him lowered his head and gnawed on the bun in his hand, as if he hadn't heard Shuyue's words, but his gentle face was a little pale at the moment.

"Tsk, why do you eat buns so much that the ground is covered with bun crumbs." Shuyue gave him a disgusted look, "làng waste of food."

Gu Changli shook his hands, put the unfinished buns back into the bag, gave Shuyue a look, and then strode away.

Shuyue was puzzled by his attitude, touched the tip of her nose, and followed.

Master Yin's clothes flicked, and he had already entered the inner hall.

They didn't meet him face to face, they changed their clothes first, and then they left the yamen with long knives in their hands to patrol the streets.

Shuyue held Gu Zhangli who was about to enter the tavern again, "Today, the Outer City River in Kyoto is releasing water, and there are quite a few people playing by the river, we have to go over there and watch."

"Go, you go. Don't pull me." Gu Changli seemed to have never heard of it, and he wanted to go in.

Shuyue straightened her back, and strengthened her hands, "How can I see such a big place by myself, if I go with two people, I will be taken care of."

Gu Changli still refused, but Shuyue had already dragged him straight to the river.His long-term drinking body has long been worn down, and he doesn't have that much strength to resist.

When we got there, there were indeed many people, and there were painting boats passing by on the river.

Shuyue stood under the willow tree, catkins were already flying every now and then in this season, she squinted her eyes and looked around the river.And Gu Changli was already lazily sitting under the willow tree, playing with catkins in his hand, looking bored, ready to fall asleep anytime.

Standing in twos and threes on the painting boat that rowed past, young girls seemed to be from a good family, with good costumes and make-up, smiling and smiling, admiring the scenery of twilight.Shuyue couldn't help but look at them a few more times, they seemed to have noticed this, covered their mouths and sniggered, and then turned their heads in embarrassment, but they were still looking at Shuyue from the corner of their eyes.

Gu Changli snorted, "No wonder you dragged me here, so I came to see a woman, it's boring."

Shuyue ignored him, but she didn't look at the group of girls anymore, instead she went to look at the crowd by the river.

Seeing that the tall and handsome Lang Er under the willow tree no longer looked at them, the girls looked back with some disappointment, and then they were attracted by others.
