The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

Chapter 119 You Are Not Young Anymore

Jun Lan, wearing a dark robe with cloud patterns, sat by the window. There were four dishes and a soup on the table in front of him. He was eating and drinking the soup leisurely with a calm expression on his face.

"Oh, Jun Lan, what a coincidence, you are here to eat too?" Gu Yin greeted with a smile.

Jun Lan looked up at him, his eyes deep, and nodded lightly: "Yeah."

Gu Yin was so hungry that her eyes were involuntarily attracted by the delicious food on the table. She tried her best not to pounce on it and secretly swallowed her saliva: "Haha, um, are you alone?"

"Yeah." Jun Lan still had a blank expression.

Mo San standing behind Jun Lan: I am not a human...

Gu Yin stopped beating around the bush and directly stated her purpose: "It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet, do you mind adding an extra set of bowls and chopsticks?"

"This set of dishes and chopsticks is clean." Jun Lan pointed directly to the place beside him.

Gu Yin then noticed that there was an empty set of bowls and chopsticks next to Jun Lan, so she quickly sat down next to him, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating: "Thank you, I won't be polite then."

Jun Lan paused with his hand holding the spoon, and a smile flashed across his eyes.

Gu Yin took a few bites of food to relieve her hunger. She lowered her shoulders and breathed a long sigh of satisfaction: "Ah... It's so delicious."

"By the way, why are you eating at this time?" Gu Yin slowed down her eating speed and asked casually.

Jun Lan pursed his lips slightly: "I just got here not long ago."

Hearing this, Mo San, who was standing behind the two of them, rolled his eyes silently and complained in his heart that the master had clearly arrived a long time ago, but had not yet asked the waiter to serve the food. At first he did not understand why, until Gu Yin came over here, the master ordered the waiter to serve the food and even specially asked for an extra set of bowls and chopsticks.

But how did the master know that Miss Gu would come to him for dinner? Mo San frowned, puzzled. Was it a coincidence or was it planned by the master?

But how can we calculate such a thing?

"Oh, that's a coincidence. It's a bargain for me." Gu Yin ate with a smile on her face, raised her chin slightly and said generously, "Order whatever you want to eat. It's my treat today."

After using someone else's private room, I felt embarrassed to ask them to pay for it. Besides, this was one of her properties after all, so she shouldn't have so much as to not be able to afford a meal.

"It's okay, I've had enough, you can do whatever you want." Jun Lan turned his head and glanced at her.

"Well... these dishes are enough, so let's have two desserts after the meal." Gu Yin pondered for a moment, then ordered two small matcha cakes. She seemed to have heard Song Ruorou mention it before, that this guy's taste was different from his appearance, and he liked to eat sweets.

Although Jun Lan didn't say anything, the expression on his face softened unconsciously.

"By the way, don't you need to apply medicine on your legs? Why did you come out to eat?" Jun Lan has been staying in the mansion to recuperate since the operation. Gu Yin also came to change his medicine every two days as Song Ruorou instructed, except for the past few days when she was too busy.

"Well, you don't need to use the medicine every day. Just apply it every few days."

"So fast, does it mean that you have recovered well?" Gu Yin looked at Jun Lan from the side, baring his eight big white teeth.

Jun Lan glanced at him from the corner of his eye, raised a faint arc at the corner of his lips, and nodded gently: "Yeah."

"That's great." Gu Yin was so excited that he slammed the table.

Then he raised the bowl in his hand and said, "Come, drink this bowl of soup. I wish you a speedy recovery."

"Cough..." Mo Sanyi, who was standing behind him, accidentally choked on his own saliva.

Gu Yin looked back at him and said, "You want to drink too?"

"No, no, no, thank you Miss Gu for your kindness, but don't worry about me, just pretend I don't exist, hehe..." Mo San waved his hands and spoke quickly, afraid that his slow answer would ruin their atmosphere.

Seeing this, Gu Yin turned around again and looked at Jun Lan with a smile: "Come on."

Jun Lan looked at the soup in front of him for two seconds, picked up the bowl silently, and turned his head to look at Gu Yin.

Gu Yin quickly touched his bowl with his, then tilted his head back and drank it all.

Jun Lan withdrew his gaze and began to drink slowly.

After eating and drinking, Gu Yin leaned over to the window and started watching the performance of Nishang Pavilion.

There was a family of four standing on the stage. A young couple with outstanding looks and a pair of fair-skinned and lovely children, about three or four years old, were all wearing red silk clothes with auspicious cloud patterns. The wife was wearing a silk waisted stand-up collared long dress, while the husband was wearing a robe. The well-behaved and lovely children were wearing the same style of clothes as their parents. The family of four stood on the stage wearing the same style of clothes, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.

Pearl stood aside holding a loud speaker and explained loudly: "This is the parent-child clothing newly launched by our Nishang Pavilion. Parent-child clothing means that young parents and their children wear the same or similar styles of clothing, just like what they are wearing now."

Pearl pointed to the family in the middle of the stage and continued, "Do you think they look particularly cozy in parent-child outfits? You can tell at a glance that they are a family. The New Year is approaching, so you can consider buying two sets for yourself and your children. There are all kinds of parent-child outfits in Nishang Pavilion waiting for you to choose..."

Pearl cleared her throat and said, "Look at the fabric of this dress. It's made of silk, which is both beautiful and warm. You won't be cheated if you buy it..."

Gu Yin listened to Zhenzhu's endless chatter and couldn't help but chuckle, "I didn't expect this girl to be so eloquent. She's really good at sales."

Then she saw Jun Lan standing next to her from the corner of her eyes, and asked casually, "Don't those two children look particularly cute?"

Just when Gu Yin was asking questions, the boy who looked like his brother, probably because he saw his sister was too nervous on the stage, quietly took her hand and hid behind him.

"Yeah." In fact, because of the distance, Jun Lan didn't feel much. It's just that the two children were dressed better and looked prettier.

"That guy looks about your age, and he already has a son and a daughter." Looking at the harmonious and warm family, Gu Yin suddenly felt a little emotional, "You said you are not young anymore, why are you not married yet?"

According to the custom of the Daji Dynasty, men usually got married at the age of sixteen, especially the children of large families. Even if they were not married, they would have already taken in a concubine.

Jun Lan's body stiffened, his pupils trembled, he was old...

"Haha, if you don't want to say it, just pretend I didn't ask." Seeing Jun Lan was slow to respond, Gu Yin smiled casually.

She was just asking casually. Everyone has their own ideas, just like many people in later generations choose not to get married. It is a personal choice and there is no need to explain too much to others.

Jun Lan hesitated for a while, and finally asked hesitantly: "I... am very old?"
