I was Idle and Cool
Chapter 54: His first love?
The stiff body has not yet fully recovered. Even the earlobe is still numb and crisp, and there seems to be a faint scent of ink left in the air...
Lu Jinxi also had no way of knowing whether this was Han Moxuan's original taste or Gu Juefei's legacy.
There was still a lively voice outside the window.
A lot of people gathered under the high platform across the street. The actor in the thick costume on the stage took a sip of wine and suddenly burst into flames.
The following suddenly applauded.
The large cloak spun with the figure of the person on the stage.
But seeing the cloak pierced with various embroidery patterns, the performer turned his head abruptly, stepping on the loud sound of gongs and drums.
"boom!"
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
——The mask on that person's face changed in an instant.
Change your face.
It's really fitting.
Didn't Gu Juefei also act out such a face change for her?
However, what kind of face is this newly revealed face, she has not yet come to a conclusion.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the previously dazed thoughts finally condensed back into Lu Jinxi's heart in the midst of such a commotion.
There was a sound of footsteps outside.
Qing Que's nervous voice quickly sounded at the door: "Madam, are you alright?"
"It's okay, come in."
Gu Juefei doesn't eat people...
It was just a little bit unexpected to her.
Qing Que and Yin Liu'er were both outside, but they didn't come in when she and Gu Juefei were inside.
Of course, this was all ordered by Lu Jinxi.
Seeing that Lu Jinxi threw the pen down and asked Gu Juefei to come up to change his clothes and clean his hands, how could they not understand what Lu Jinxi was going to do?
The two of them understood, but what they thought in their hearts was another matter.
After hearing Gu Juefei's order, Qing Que came in, looked at Lu Jinxi carefully, and said, "The letters of recommendation have been handed over to Yin Liu'er according to your order."
"That's good." Lu Jinxi nodded, seeing that it was still early, and said, "There is nothing else to do, let's pick some things, and then go shopping elsewhere, and we'll be back soon."
Coming here is just a pretense.
Lu Jinxi just walked around the room and picked out a few paintings and calligraphy, Yin Liuer stepped up, saw the scene, and couldn't help but say, "Oh, are you picking up calligraphy and paintings? There are a few paintings hidden there. Yes, this is filial piety to you."
As soon as Lu Jinxi turned his head, he saw Yin Liu'er standing there holding a brand new bamboo-blue silk robe. But he said, "This is my honor to you", but he didn't move a step.
The thing about this cannon...
"You should keep the good things yourself. This silk robe is no longer needed. Take it back and put it there."
"Yes."
Of course Yin Liu'er was polite. Of course he didn't believe that Lu Jinxi could ask for anything from him, but just saying a few words showed that he was a very sensible person.
But this silk robe...
"I just found the little one. After all, the eldest son is very valuable, and I'm afraid that I'm not worthy of his identity. I didn't expect that when I met him on the stairs just now, he said no more, and left in a hurry."
After muttering a few words, Yin Liu'er left in the end.
Seeing his philistine and shrewd appearance, Lu Jinxi couldn't help laughing. He just pulled out a few paintings in the painting vat, opened them and took a look. He picked a few at random, rolled them up again, and asked Qingque to hold them down and dig them out. silver.
After a while, the master and servant left Hanmo Xuan.
Yin Liu'er stood behind and sent it all the way to the side of the street. When she saw that someone had left, she touched the letter of recommendation that was sticking to her heart, feeling warm in her heart.
"Ma'am, where are you going now?"
In the carriage, Qingque couldn't help but ask.
Lu Jinxi leaned back on the throw pillow, only to feel her body relaxed a little bit, she only pressed her left temple with one hand, rubbed it, and said, "Do you think there is any fun place nearby, or if you are helping Li Jie'er and Lang? Sister and brother Chi buy something."
She was not familiar with the capital, so she gave it all to Qingque.
Qingque thought about it and explained to the driver.
But Lu Jinxi only leaned on the pillow and habitually started to do this "out of control analysis".
As long as the painted skin demon, the words are not necessarily fake.
Lies that are 100% false are too tiring to speak, and there is no possibility of long-term operation, so everyone like them speaks a mixture of truth and falsehood.
Even the temperament is not necessarily fake, it is just modified to suit one's own needs.
She knew which of her words were true, but she was not able to analyze which of Gu Juefei's words was true for the time being.
Today in Hanmo Xuan, his reaction was almost completely unexpected to her, and it was not in line with any development direction she imagined.
It even gave her a weird feeling of "playing off".
Because, from the beginning to the end, she just wanted to sleep with Gu Juefei, and never thought of getting married; but just now Gu Juefei even mentioned the roster of Princess Yongning...
That was the register that Princess Yongning used to give her a "blind date".
"It doesn't have my name on it, and they can't compete with me."
Looking back on it now, this sentence had a kind of madness, and it made her feel even more chilled than the sentence "the enemy is better than the world".
What does this mean...
It is clear that he is going to marry her!
Obviously, they have only met three times, and there is no intersection with each other, and there is even little physical contact. This smart person who is famous all over the world is going to marry her?
Lu Jinxi only had an indescribable "Haha" in his heart.
Is she overdoing it?
Or is Gu Juefei too weak?
The detail of shrinking the hand and pulling the distance is actually not to that extent, right? Even verbal cues. It's all just optional things.
Generally speaking, this is the best way to open a good feeling.
In Lu Jinxi's view, this degree should be just right.
So……
Is it Gu Juefei?
She couldn't help combing the information she knew in her mind from beginning to end.
First, the dragon and the phoenix among the people;
Second, there is a gap with the Father;
Third, a deceitful disposition;
Fourth, not married yet.
At the moment when the fourth point appeared, she was pressing her forehead finger, and suddenly stiffened. In her mind, the gossip she heard during the birthday banquet of the Taishifu that day emerged...
"Eldest Young Master Gu, there are people who want to take a bite of this hard bone. I'm really not afraid of breaking a tooth..."
"After so many years, the girl who liked him went to sea, but he was stinky and hard, and he refused to marry any of them."
"Jiguan didn't get a wife for nine years. If it wasn't for Gu Juefei, he would have become the laughing stock of the whole capital. It's just such a stone in a ditch, thanks to these girls, it's a shame!"
It was the voice of Mrs. Dingguo's wife, with a bit of acrimony, and the lady of the Taishi, Mrs. Tang, who was sitting there mockingly, had a dull face.
But these are just words from the market and gossip in the back house. You open your mouth and I open your mouth, and it will change when you pass it on. In addition, the prejudice of Mrs. Dingguo's words also reduces this. The credibility of the words...
Therefore, Lu Jinxi listened to it as a joke.
But now that she thinks about it, it makes her feel difficult.
The feeling that she was going to be smashed when she got rid of it, lingered in her mind again. All the details of getting along with each other before, as well as the various reactions of Gu Juefei, were laid out one by one.
A terrifying thought, after layer by layer analysis, slowly came to mind——
Done.
Gu, this guy has never touched a woman, right?
As soon as this idea came up, Lu Jinxi felt that his eyes were faintly darkened, and his head seemed to be covered by dark clouds.
Imagine, a normal man, in that situation, how should he react?
In a hurry, the monkey may grab her and then confess, or dry wood and fire;
Implicit may be in a hurry in the heart, but shy on the face than a woman, keep guessing in the heart, and then take the opportunity to test it with words, it is moisturizing and silent;
To be frank, maybe I will directly ask her "do you have an appointment?"
Gu Juefei said that he wanted to marry her...
Is it direct?
This is simply heartless, stupid roe deer!
A painted skin demon with a deceitful temperament, in this case, shouldn't you be tug-of-war with her?
Then it is possible to kiss me and me.
As for marriage?
It was impossible for Gu Juefei to think that she was a really kind person, so she shouldn't be so direct on this kind of thing.
In a word, no matter what era, whoever goes straight in like this, is a stupid roe deer!
It felt like I was going to dig a trap and put something to lure the beast, only to swing the **** down, leaving a bowl-sized hole on the ground, and the beast jumped out and couldn't wait to get into the trap.
But this beast is the size of a small house, and the one who digs the trap may be killed accidentally!
Lu Jinxi finally had a long-lost urge to vomit blood in her heart.
The boat capsized in the gutter, nothing more than that.
However, after using some means, before hooking the little finger, someone wanted to marry her back home?
What a rare flower it must be!
First, it is very likely that you have never touched a woman, and the reaction is too simple and rude;
Second, I have never been in love, and I don’t know anything about the fun routines in this regard;
Third, the means of dealing with feelings are very different from the means of dealing with Vanity Fair.
There are all kinds of rumors about Gu Juefei and the virtuous concubine Wei Yi in the vain market, which is ironic in retrospect. If you can be a concubine Xian, you are a smart person, right?
If it is really a bit of a head and tail, Gu Juefei will not be like this now.
In Lu Jinxi's mind, an extremely absurd and extremely ominous thought suddenly appeared:
If Gu Juefei was never emotional in the past, and today's words come from the bottom of her heart, then she might be in real trouble—first love.
The most difficult thing for a man to let go is "first love".
Think about Gu Juefei, one has a background, and the other has a means.
Lu Jinxi couldn't help his right eye twitching...
The sentence he said "they can't compete with me" is really not arrogant, otherwise, how could she have fancy him?
"Is it too late to burn incense and worship Buddha now..."
He couldn't help but murmur, almost moaning.
Seeing her frowning slightly, Qing Que seemed to be thinking about something incomprehensible, so she didn't bother, but when she heard this sentence, she was stunned for a while, and then she responded, "It's too late, all the temples are still open now. Now. Are you going to incense?"
"..."
Lu Jinxi heard the voice and looked up at her. For some reason, she was amused.
"lady?"
"It's alright, I just said casually, I'll leave it out with incense or something."
Lu Jinxi waved his hand, but he already had a decision in his heart.
She has always been honest about her desires.
But she couldn't bear the responsibility for dragging her into the "besieged city" together.
Regardless of whether Gu Juefei's remarks are true or false, they are just poking at her weakness. At the same time, this person's hands and eyes are open to the sky, and there seems to be some trump cards behind her. She is not the kind of person who can get away casually after sleeping——
Status: Played off.
Alert: Dangerous.
Strategy: Cut off contact.
These three lines clearly appeared in Lu Jinxi's mind. Although it seemed a little regretful that he couldn't sleep, it was definitely the calmest and most rational way to judge and deal with it.
On February 23, she would definitely not go to the Xianci Temple.
As for how to deal with it in the future, it has to be observed and the camera will act.
"Madam, in front is the Fanghua Pavilion, which is the best place in the capital to sell rouge gouache. I think you can use up a few boxes of lip balm in your makeup, so why don't you come here and have a look. The slave also likes to learn, if When I go back and make my own rouge, I also know the popularity of the capital."
The carriage came to a stop, and Qingque opened the curtain with a rare happy expression on her face.
Lu Jinxi slowly let out a breath. After making the decision, her mood gradually calmed down. She smiled, took Qingque's hand and walked out into the Youth Hall.
She is in no hurry to go back today.
After visiting the Fanghua Pavilion, I also bought a few items for Sister Lang. Qingque led her to the flower market and several jade shops, and bought a pendant for Brother Chi. Seeing that a shop had a good fan, she bought one for Xue Tingzhi.
The last one I went to was a dim sum shop, and I brought a few cakes for the egrets who stayed in the house.
After walking around, Lu Jinxi barely stepped on a piece of land.
By the time we got back to the residence, the sun was already skewed, and it would sink into the Western Mountains in less than half an hour. The carriage drove past the avenue in front of the General's Mansion and came to the side door as usual, and people brought footstools to cushion her.
Lu Jinxi got off the carriage, and the man from Friday's house, who had been waiting there for a long time, hurried up and said a few words in her ear.
She couldn't help but smile.
Isn't it the elder sister-in-law who is being tortured?
"I had a good time, I didn't prevent her from waiting so anxiously, I'll go back and see. You didn't neglect her, did you?"
