Against Song Wan Yue’s death stare, Gu Yi stood stiffly in front of her, “Little girl, I really didn’t go anywhere last night, I ……”
“Hmm ………?”
Song Wangyue trailed off.
Gu Yi nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, as if that would cover up his actions last night.
“Since you didn’t go out, what’s with the smell of ecstasy in big brother’s room?”
Gu Yi’s body stiffened. Song Si happened to be sick, and he thought he had covered up the matter of the ecstasy, how could he forget that the little girl’s nose was very sensitive, even if there was a slight odour the little girl could smell it.
But he could not reveal his identity, he could only play dumb, “What ecstasy smell? How come I don’t smell the road?”
Song Wangyue looked at him steadily.
Gu Yi’s heart almost stopped when he was looked at, and he didn’t even dare to move his eyes, lest he might let her see the clues if he moved.
After a long time, Song Wangyue suddenly got up and stepped on the top of his foot again, seeing Gu Yi scream out in pain before releasing her foot and pushing him away to walk outside.
“Xiao Si, go buy breakfast, your young master is not hungry, so there is no need to buy it for him.”
“Yes.”
Xiao Si turned and ran outside as if he had been given a pardon, lest if he was one step slower, Song Wan Yue would find him too.
The breakfast was bought in abundance, wontons, noodles, buns and baklava ……, and Song Wangyue sat at the table and ate it unhurriedly ……
Gu Yi sat on the side, hungry straight gulp, Song Wan Yue as if not see, eat very sweet.
Xiao Si stood to one side with his head down, smelling the aroma of breakfast, secretly regretting that he had not eaten a little ahead of time when he bought it earlier.
“Little girl ……”
Gu Yi covered his stomach and looked at Song Wan Yue pitifully.
Song Wangyue didn’t even look at him, eating her wontons slowly and sweetly with her honey mouth.
Grumble.
Gu Yi’s stomach growled, but Song Wan Yue ate even more as if she hadn’t heard it. After she finished eating, she wiped her mouth and pointed to the rest and ordered Xiao Si, “Heat all these up in the pot, let my big brother eat them when he wakes up later.”
Xiao Si nimbly carried them out.
Song Wangyue got up and walked outside, but when she reached the courtyard and didn’t hear any sound behind her, she turned around and Gu Yi stood up with a jolt to follow her.
The pastry shop had also opened and there was a queue in front of the door. The aroma of the pastries wafted over on the wind and Gu Yi became even hungrier, swallowing several times.
The aroma of pastries wafted through the wind, making Gu Yi even hungrier and gulped several times.
Song Wangyue glanced at the sky without moving and smiled as she waited by the carriage, “Sister Xiao.”
“Yue’er, why have you come over so early today?”
Xiao Yao took the opportunity to glance at Gu Yi without a trace as she got off the carriage, and seeing that he was fine, her heart, which had been worried all night, settled down.
“Sister Xiao is also here early today ……”
Song Wangyue had words in her mouth.
Gu Yi’s heart trembled.
“It’s not because you’re worried about my big brother, is it?”
A blush surfaced on Xiao Yao’s face, Song Si did drink quite a lot last night, one reason she came so early was because she was worried about Gu Yi, the other was because she was worried that Song Si would have a headache after his hangover.
“Is he alright?”
“My big brother got winded when he came back last night and got sick.”
“Is it serious? I’ll have someone send for a doctor right away.”
Seeing that her worry did not seem fake, Song Wan Yue took her arm and walked inside, “Big brother has just taken medicine and fallen asleep, he will probably have to sleep for more than half an hour, sister Xiao can go see him later.”
Gu Yi followed them, and before she could walk a few steps her stomach rumbled again, gurgling, gurgling ……
Xiao Yao heard it clearly, her footsteps paused and she didn’t hold back her head, “Hasn’t young master Gu eaten breakfast?”
“He made a mistake, I punished him for not being allowed to eat breakfast.”
Xiao Yao’s mouth opened slightly in surprise, Gu Yi hurriedly winked at her, Xiao Yao hurriedly turned back and shook her head with a smile.
“You guys, you are really childish.”
“No impunity for him not to grow up. Right, sister Xiao, when my elder brother went to your mansion yesterday, did he mention when you were going to get married?”
Xiao Yao blushed again, but did not squirm, “My grandfather also said that it would be best during the New Year.”
“What is Sister Xiao’s opinion?”
Xiao Yao froze, “Me?”
“Yes.”
Song Wan Yue nodded, “Didn’t you ever think of marrying my big brother earlier?”
Not expecting her to ask this, Xiao Yao’s face instantly turned red, “I, I listen to my grandfather.”
“Although marriage is a matter of parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words, your own opinion is also important, if Sister Xiao has any opinions she should speak up earlier, when she and big brother get married later, then everything will be too late.”
Gu Yi’s footsteps beat.
Xiao Yao was only shy and did not hear the meaning of Song Wan Yue’s words.
The two of them walked into the hall and took their seats.
“Speaking of which, Sister Xiao and Big Brother were really destined by the heavens, you said how it was so coincidental that you also went to the West Market that day and also happened to read the same book as my Big Brother.”
The smile on Xiao Yao’s face froze.
Song Wan Yue glanced at Gu Yi, who had her head bowed, and looked at Xiao Yao with a smile, “Sister Xiao can you tell me about how you and big brother met that day, I’ve heard it all from other people’s mouths, I haven’t heard it from Sister Xiao.”
“I ……”
Only then did Xiao Yao notice something.
The smile on her face could barely be maintained.
Song Wangyue had both hands on her cheeks with a look of interest.
Xiao Yao allowed herself to calm down, her mind raced with the reason why Song Wan Yue would suddenly ask this, could it be that she had discovered her cousin’s identity, and then denied it.
Thinking, she opened her mouth, “Every time the Western Market is open, I always go over there to have a look around, this year is naturally no exception, I walked up to the book stall and happened to fancy the same book as him ……”
After hearing this, Song Wangyue asked with a smile on her face.
“If it were someone else, would sister Xiao also let someone save her?”
Xiao Yao’s heart panicked, “Since, naturally. ”
But Song Wangyue suddenly changed the subject, “Sister Xiao is fifteen years old, right?”
Xiao Yao nodded her head in panic.
“With such a good offer from the Ding Guo Mansion, how come Sister Xiao has never been engaged, is it because no one has come to your door to ask for your hand in marriage, or have you been waiting for someone to appear?”
Xiao Yao’s heart was pounding, she didn’t know which part of Gu Yi had made a mistake and allowed Song Wan Yue to notice something. But she was really fond of Song Si.
However, she tried her best to keep her face calm, “You don’t know, because of what happened to Great Aunt, many people are not willing to go with the Ding Guo Mansion, let alone propose marriage to them, and my family doesn’t want to aggravate me, that’s why they have been delaying until now.”
“In that case, my elder brother is picking up a bargain?”
Xiao Yao’s eyes did not dare to meet hers.
Song Wan Yue was still smiling, but the topic suddenly changed again, “Last night the Qin Wang Mansion was haunted, everyone in the city knows about it, Sister Xiao has also heard about it, right, do you think it was really haunted or someone pretending to be a ghost?”
