Chapter 6 Chapter 6 At least, it wasn't his Feng Wenyu. ...
==Chapter 6==
Feng Wenyu got Jiang Zhilan's advice, but before she could make a decision, an invitation was delivered to Feng's house.
The banquet was hosted by the old lady of the Qiao family.
Since Feng Wenyu decided to get married, she often followed Zhou Yueyu to learn how to manage the household. She was there when the invitation was delivered.
Feng Wenyu carefully examined the invitation. After deciding on the theme of the banquet, she asked in confusion, "Why would Madam Qiao hold a banquet under the pretext of a flower viewing event?"
She needed to learn how to manage the household, especially since Gu Yu had already entered the court. She naturally had some understanding of the interpersonal relationships in the capital.
The Qiao family is also a prominent family in the capital. Lord Qiao serves as the Minister of Justice, and his sister is the current queen, who is also the biological daughter of Old Lady Qiao. This shows that Old Lady Qiao has a prominent status, but Old Lady Qiao is not someone who likes socializing.
Feng Wenyu remembered that Old Madam Qiao only hosted guests for her full birthday.
Zhou Yueyu was having the embroiderer measure her size when she heard this and shook her head: "Have you forgotten Miss Qiao?"
Hearing her mother mention Qiao Anyu, Feng Wenyu curled her lips slightly. She and Qiao Anyu had been having some conflicts over some old things, and neither of them could stand the other.
But now she also guessed the purpose of Mrs. Qiao's banquet.
In name it is a flower viewing party, but in reality it is a blind date party.
Feng Wenyu twisted a corner of the invitation and thought about her conversation with Sister Jiang yesterday. She muttered softly, "It looks like Sister Jiang will be going too."
Feng Wenyu never thought of refusing. This banquet was organized by Old Madam Qiao herself, and no one would refuse.
She glanced at the time on the invitation - three days later.
Feng Wenyu thought of something and tightened the invitation slightly.
Zhou Yueyu glanced at her and saw that she looked absent-minded. She sighed softly. She had not wanted to interfere in the relationship between the younger generation, but now it seemed that she had no choice.
"What happened this time that took so long?"
She saw how much Gu Yushi cared about her daughter, and it was rare for her to see Gu Yushi come to her house after such a long time.
Feng Wenyu's face wrinkled when asked this question, and she couldn't help feeling a little aggrieved.
Everyone came to ask her the reason, but she was also confused.
Feng Wenyu tugged at her handkerchief, mumbling a little, "If he didn't come looking for me, how would I know the reason?"
She was the same as before, but it was Gu Yushi who changed, so the problem naturally lay with Gu Yushi.
Zhou Yueyu raised an eyebrow and asked, "If he doesn't come looking for you, then you won't go looking for him either?"
How could it be possible for one person to take all the initiative when two people are together?
Feng Wenyu turned his head and stopped talking.
Knowing that she was throwing a tantrum, it was hard for her not to feel aggrieved that the person who had always obeyed her suddenly became cold for no reason. Zhou Yueyu understood her daughter. In this mood, Feng Wenyu could not take the initiative to find Gu Yu.
Zhou Yueyu stopped what she was doing:
"The old lady of the Qiao family is hosting a banquet and has specially invited young talents from the capital. He will also receive an invitation. You can meet at the Qiao family then. This way, it won't be considered as you bowing your head."
Solve the problem as soon as possible so that she won't be distracted all day.
Feng Wenyu pursed his lips slightly, but did not refute Zhou Yueyu's words, which meant he agreed.
After all, Feng Wenyu really wanted to know the reason behind Gu Yushi's change of attitude.
******
Pingkangfang, Gu’s house.
This house was personally awarded to Gu Yushi by the current emperor when he passed the palace examination. The house with three entrances and exits is not as rich as a fiefdom, but it is a rare honor.
As the night deepened, there was still a faint candlelight in the study of Gu's house.
Mu Fan glanced in the direction of the study and scratched his head in confusion. He wanted to urge the adults to rest, but he didn't dare.
Ever since the Lord officially came to court a month ago, he seemed like a different person, and the pressure from him became increasingly severe. In the past, he dared to chat with the Lord, but now he feels extremely pressured even when facing the Lord's gaze.
Mu Fan muttered to himself, is this how the court trains people?
In just one month, a person's aura can undergo a complete transformation.
In the study, Gu Yushi had been working at his desk for a long time, but according to his position, he didn't have that much official business to deal with. He was currently working as a fifth-rank academician in the Hanlin Academy. In addition to compiling and publishing classics, he also had to read memorials to the emperor. The entire Hanlin Academy was an imperial position, and as an academician, he would appear before the emperor on a daily basis, making him a close minister to the emperor.
He should rest earlier and appear before the emperor in a more appropriate image.
But Gu Yushi couldn't sleep peacefully.
Gu Yushi never thought that he had just promised Feng Wenyu that he would write her a divorce letter, but before the letter was written, he opened and closed his eyes and actually went back to fourteen years ago.
At this time, he and Feng Wenyu had just decided to get married, and there was still more than a year before they got married.
He didn't understand why he came back.
For him, he didn't want to go through the same journey again.
Mu Fan's low, urging voice could be heard from outside: "Sir, it's getting late. If you don't rest now, you'll miss your shift tomorrow."
There was no movement in the study for a long time. When Mu Fan thought that the adults were ignoring him again, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
Mu Fan stood up quickly. He didn't dare look at the master. He followed the master all the way forward and reported what happened in the mansion today:
"Today, the Qiao Mansion sent an invitation. It is Old Madam Qiao hosting a banquet. Please come to the banquet in three days."
The memories of fourteen years ago were already a little vague. At least Gu Yushi had long forgotten about the banquet hosted by Old Lady Qiao.
Gu Yushi did not pause at all.
Mu Fan continued, "I heard that Madam Qiao hosted a banquet for many young talents in the capital, and Miss Feng must be on the invited list."
Gu Yushi suddenly stopped.
Mu Fan nearly bumped into his master's back. He looked up in confusion: "What's wrong, sir?"
Gu Yushi didn't look back. After a moment, he walked forward again, leaving only a sound:
"fine."
The voice was so cold that Mu Fan touched his nose in frustration.
Gu Yushi had a blank expression on his face, but emotions were already surging in his eyes. This was not the first time he had heard Feng Wenyu's name during this period of time.
He naturally knew how he and Feng Wenyu got along at this time.
It is definitely not the situation of being speechless after ten years of marriage.
Everyone knows that he and Feng Wenyu are in love with each other, so it is normal for people around him to mention Feng Wenyu.
He hadn't visited Feng Wenyu for more than a month. In the past two days, his mother couldn't even hide the worry in her eyes. She had asked him more than once in a subtle way whether he had had an argument with Feng Wenyu.
dispute.
Scenes from his past life flashed through his mind, and the emotions in Gu Yushi's eyes became increasingly dull.
Mu Fan was depressed. Why didn't the adults feel happy when Miss Feng was mentioned?
Three days later.
The flower viewing banquet was in the afternoon, and Feng Wenyuchen got up around 12:00. The clothes for the banquet and spare clothes were already prepared. She had something on her mind and tossed and turned last night and couldn't sleep. She got up early without Jinshu urging her.
Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Feng Wenyu kept looking through the dressing box.
Jinshu was curious: "What are you looking for, girl?"
Finally finding the thing, Feng Wenyu coughed lightly before handing the jade hairpin to Jinshu:
"Wear this today."
Jinshu recognized the jade hairpin. It was the coming-of-age gift given to the girl by Lord Gu when she came of age last year. The design of it was a red plum blossom with pearls, and it was very eye-catching.
As for that little thought, Jinshu chuckled softly and didn't expose the girl: "The girl has excellent taste. This jade hairpin really matches the girl's makeup today."
Feng Wenyu's face flushed slightly, and he turned his head away without looking at Jinshu.
"Hurry up, don't waste time."
Qiao Mansion, the Qiao family held a banquet today, and there was an endless stream of guests coming to the door. As soon as Feng Wenyu got off the carriage, a maid came to lead her into the mansion.
The flower viewing banquet was not informal, but as a guest, Feng Wenyu still had to pay her respects to the host. However, as soon as she stepped into the Qiao Mansion, she looked around and didn't see the person she was looking for. She lowered her eyes in disappointment.
After meeting Mrs. Qiao, Feng Wenyu was led to the female guests' side, and she indeed saw Jiang Zhilan.
Jiang Zhilan waved at her, and when the two sat together, Jiang Zhilan suddenly leaned over to her. When Feng Wenyu was puzzled, Jiang Zhilan covered her mouth with her folding fan:
"I just saw Master Gu."
Feng Wenyu's eyes lit up, but she suppressed them. She pretended not to care and asked, "Where is he?"
Jiang Zhilan rolled her eyes at her and muttered, "You're still pretending in front of me."
Feng Wenyu was so embarrassed that she hit her. Jiang Zhilan smiled and gave her directions:
"Go quickly. If your heart isn't here, what's the point of being here?"
Feng Wenyu blushed, but she still stood up and walked out. Just as she left the pavilion and before she turned around the path, she vaguely saw a piece of clothing floating around the corner. She subconsciously looked over, and an inexplicable intuition made her raise her head, and she stopped immediately.
Gu Yushi had stood in front of her without her knowing when.
His eyes were dark, as if too many emotions were flashing through his mind. Feng Wenyu couldn't tell for a moment, but it inexplicably made her feel a little sad.
This emotion disappeared quickly. Feng Wenyu came back to her senses. She frowned and complained softly as usual:
"When did you come here? Why didn't you make a sound? You almost scared me."
This was a complaint, and also a subtle expression of her dissatisfaction with his attitude during recent times, but she was too shy to say it directly.
Gu Yushi looked at the person in front of him. She complained subconsciously with a hint of coquettishness. Gu Yushi's heart tightened for a moment, and the overly sour and dull emotions seemed to spread from his blood vessels.
Since he came back, he has been avoiding meeting Feng Wenyu and deliberately not thinking about a problem.
However, at this moment, Gu Yushi could not deceive himself.
The person in front of me is Feng Wenyu, but he is not Feng Wenyu.
At least, it’s not his Feng Wenyu.
Fourteen years later, Feng Wenyu would not show this expression in front of him.
Gu Yushi hated the idea of a third party getting involved in a relationship, and he also hated transference.
Even if this person is her from fourteen years ago.
So, when the woman was about to step forward, he subconsciously took a step back. She noticed something and looked up in surprise.
Gu Yushi's heart sank involuntarily.
Feng Wenyu was no fool, so she could naturally see the hidden resistance. Her eyes turned red with anger, but she raised her chin even more:
"Gu Yushi, what exactly do you mean?"
