Chapter 14 The First Blind Date in Ancient Times

Caiyun shivered, and on this sunny day, he actually felt the cold in the wax moon.

"Are you going, Caiyun?" Xue Jinyi slowed down her speech, her voice trembling slightly, like a ghost in a horror movie.

"Ahh

"Rubbish." Xue Jinyi smiled disdainfully, then took a deep breath and walked towards the small door of the broken courtyard, "Let's go, go on a blind date." ”

Old Madam Xue had already arranged a small carriage and took Xue Jinyi's master and servant to the teahouse by Changchun Lake outside the south of the city.

Today's sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, it is a good time to visit the lake and enjoy the scenery, so the tourists around Changchun Lake are weaving, lively and extraordinary.

Before getting off the car, Xue Jinyi took the hat handed by Mama Yao and covered her face with a white veil before getting off the carriage.

"Jinyi."

The Zhao family actually greeted them at the door of the teahouse, and Xue Jinyi hurriedly saluted and said hello.

Zhao looked at this polite girl very happily, took her hand and said, "I have booked a private room, you come with me and go and sit first." ”

The other party hasn't arrived yet? Xue Jinyi thought about it in her heart, didn't ask, followed Zhao upstairs, and came to a small private room, through the open window, she could only see the green mountains in the distance, which was not the best place to enjoy the scenery.

Zhao said with a little embarrassment: "The private rooms near the lake are fully booked. ”

"Auntie, I love it here." Xue Jinyi smiled: "Quiet." ”

Because it faces the mountains and forests, the tourists downstairs are not right, and it is not so noisy.

"Jinyi is such a thoughtful girl." Zhao squinted and smiled, but fortunately trusted his aunt once, and agreed to marry this time. No matter what the status of the eldest lady of the Xue family in the Weiguo Mansion is, it is naturally beneficial for her mother's family to climb such a name. She beckoned Xue Jinyi to sit down, and then pushed the pastries on the table in front of her, "My nephew is temporarily delayed in the school hall, and he will be late, Jinyi don't be surprised." ”

Xue Jinyi said: "No, it is right for the son to focus on his studies." ”

Looking at such a sensible and well-behaved girl, Zhao was full of liking, and really took her as a nephew and daughter-in-law, so he said truthfully: "My nephew's name is Fang Junhui, the family is a scholarly family, my father is a county magistrate in a foreign country, he loves to read since he was a child, and he is very smart and hardworking. His temperament is also gentle and elegant, and he treats people very well. ”

Xue Jinyi pretended to listen attentively, nodded her head from time to time, and echoed a sentence.

“…… However, the most important thing is to fit the eyes. Zhao looked at Xue Jinyi's face, "If Jinyi really doesn't like it, don't force it, just tell your aunt and find another one for you, it's not a trouble." ”

"Thank you, Auntie." Xue Jinyi owes herself, and the cup of tea in front of them has been drunk, so she took the initiative to pour tea for Zhao.

Footsteps sounded in the corridor, Zhao's eyes lit up, and he looked out the door, but the person was just a stranger passing by.

She's a little anxious, this delay is a little longer, right?

"Jinyi, you sit down first, and I'll go out to pick up people." Zhao said, got up and went out.

Xue Jinyi was bored and fiddled with the jade pendant on her waist, Mama Yao looked outside, came to her side, and said in a low voice: "What time is this, the young master of the Fang family has not come for a long time, can't he change his mind......"

She wanted to say something and stopped, the reputation of the young lady in Beijing was too bad, even the boys of ordinary families were reluctant to propose, let alone have some official positions in the family. Although the young lady is getting better now, but this good thing hasn't spread yet, how many people in Beijing can know?

Xue Jinyi shrugged her shoulders, "Let's look at it again." ”

If the young master of the Fang family really repented...... She looked at the small pagoda on the top of the mountain, since she had pretended to be influenced by the Buddha's light once, and Mrs. Xue had not questioned it face-to-face, she could only pretend to be again-after all, the Buddhist family was separated from the mundane world and could not be married.

She was thinking about it when footsteps sounded outside again, followed by Zhao's complaints.

"You, tell us to wait, and you must make amends to Miss Xue."

While speaking, two figures swayed into the private room, Xue Jinyi raised her eyes and looked, followed by Zhao was a scholar in Tsing Yi, with good facial features and a very gentle temperament.

She didn't have the weird feeling she expected to have on a blind date, and looked at Fang Junhui with a faint smile.

Zhao enthusiastically introduced the two of them.

When it was over, Fang Junhui bowed his hand to Xue Jinyi and said, "Because there is a delay in the school, Miss Xue has been waiting for a long time, I am really sorry, please Miss Xue Haihan." ”

"It's okay," Xue Jinyi waved her hand, "It's not bad to sit here and enjoy the scenery to pass the time." ”

Fang Junhui secretly looked at Xue Jinyi, and was surprised.

I heard that the eldest lady of the Xue family was vulgar, and even robbed the young handsome man she liked, and almost caused someone to jump into the lake and die, and the demure and elegant girl in front of her was very different from the rumors, but her appearance was really average.

Somehow, he suddenly felt a sharp gaze sweeping across his face, and when he came back to his senses to explore, he didn't find the source of his eyes, so he could only concentrate and smile: "It seems that Miss Xue seems to be very interested in appreciating the beautiful scenery of Changchun Lake, just to make amends, I chartered a painting boat and asked Miss Xue to take a boat ride on the lake together, okay?" ”

Before Xue Jinyi could answer, Zhao clapped his hands and said first: "That's really excellent, today's weather is no more suitable for swimming in the lake." Jinyi, let's go sit together, it's boring to stay in the house all the time. ”

Xue Jinyi felt that it was difficult to resist the hospitality, and then looked at Fang Junhui's polite appearance, so she had to agree.

Anyway, there are so many people coming and going on Changchun Lake, there shouldn't be any chaos.

A few people came out of the teahouse and came to the pier by Changchun Lake, Fang Junhui was the first to jump on the painting boat, and then stretched out his hand to Xue Jinyi.

Zhao boasted: "Junhui is really careful and considerate. ”

She motioned for Xue Jinyi to hold that hand and get on the boat with Fang Junhui's help.

Xue Jinyi held her cheek in one hand, pretending to be embarrassed, lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with the other hand, and then gently jumped onto the painting boat, landed beside Fang Junhui, and smiled at him.

Fang Junhui withdrew his hand with a smile, and there was nothing abnormal in his expression.

Mama Yao followed closely to go up, not wanting to be stopped by the Zhao family, "Mama, let the two young people be in one place on the painting boat and talk freely." ”

Mama Yao immediately refused, "How can this work, although it is more open now than before, but their men and women are unmarried, so it's not good......"

Zhao pointed to the large and small boats on the lake, "There are so many people, and Junhui is a person who abides by etiquette, and he will never do anything too polite to Miss Xue." The old lady entrusted me with this matter because she trusted me, and I must not let her down. ”

While talking, the painting boat slowly left the shore, and it was too late for Mama Yao to stop it.
