Chapter 120: Offering with Blood
"Isn't that what you prepared for Grandpa? You asked me to bring it to Grandpa. Gu Keran heard Gu Yanran call her sister, and she was inexplicably a little uncomfortable, but she still pretended that nothing had anything to do with her.
Gu Yanran smiled lightly, "Yes, I'm troublesome sister." She glanced at the brocade box in Gu Keran's hand again, "But sister, you took it wrong, it's not yours, it's this." She took out the brocade box she was holding in her arms and motioned to show it to the people around her.
Gu Keran was stunned for a moment, didn't she say that she didn't prepare anything, where is this brocade box?
"Grandpa, this is what I sent you. Gu Yanran opened the brocade box in front of Old Man Gu.
The people around him were still inhaling, but unlike Fang Cai, everyone had amazing looks on their faces.
"What is this...... Gu Keran looked at the thing in Gu Yanran's hand with disgust, and couldn't help muttering, before the words were finished, Zhu Xin patted her behind her and signaled her to stop.
Gu Keran pursed his lips and said no more words.
Old Man Gu's sinking face had a slight crack, he stood up excitedly, and took the things out of the brocade box with a slightly trembling hand.
In the brocade box is a bronze vessel, the lid and the body of the two sides are god-faced, the god-faced head has two horns, round eyes, straight nose and small ears, big eyes are violently open, two fangs are out, and there is a slight smile in the might.
The handle is composed of two dragons sharing a tail, and each end of the upturned beam has a monster composed of an elephant's trunk, a bull's head, and a sheep's horn.
An animal called a tapir extends along both sides of the mouth. There is a double-body snake on the lower part of the ring foot, the snake head is convex in the middle, and the snake body extends left and right, which echoes the double dragon on the handle.
His eyes fluctuated, and his voice trembled a little: "Is it a bronze slab?"
Gu Yanran didn't expect Old Man Gu to be so knowledgeable, she nodded, "Hmm." ”
"Where did you get this?" Gu Fangyan stepped forward and took a closer look, Rao had been in the archaeological world for so many years, and he couldn't help but show surprise when he saw this.
"I stumbled upon it the other day. Gu Yanran smiled, not mentioning Fu Wei at all, "I heard my father say that my grandfather has always been very interested in bronze tablets, but it is difficult to find them, so I asked someone to ask for a long time before I found this one." ”
Gu Fangyan was stunned, but he didn't expect Gu Yanran to mention him, and after reacting, he couldn't help but praise her in his heart, she wanted to share half of the credit with him.
"Good, that's good. Old Man Gu looked at Gu Yanran and then at Gu Fangyan, nodded approvingly, and then turned over the bronze slab and looked at it carefully, he couldn't put it down, and the joy in his heart could only be described by the word "good".
"What the hell is this?" Lin Mannan looked at Old Man Gu with an obsessed look, gritted his teeth with hatred, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Old Man Gu really liked this thing, and they gave it away, so he took a look at it and asked the housekeeper to take it back.
"It's bronze
卣 is a bronze vessel of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Gu Yanran explained: "The four gods on the wall are the Emperor of Heaven revered by people at that time, and the four divine beasts cast around are dragons, owls, tapirs, and snakes, which are the mounts of the Emperor of Heaven. ”
Gu Fangyan listened to Gu Yanran's explanation, and couldn't help nodding, his daughter's attainments in this area are indeed very deep, and at her age, I'm afraid he can't catch up with her.
His face was full of pride.
Gu Keran kept looking at the expressions of the people around her, and when she saw that everyone's attitude towards Gu Yanran had changed one hundred and eighty degrees, she was unwilling, and she put the brocade box in her hand in front of her again, "Then you say, what are you going to do when you prepare this?"
Gu Yanran glanced at her and frowned invisibly, Gu Keran really didn't push her into the abyss.
Gu Yanran smiled embarrassedly, "This bronze slab is an artifact, and it can be regarded as a murder weapon, I usually use blood to feed it, and I never thought that my sister would find out." ”
Gu Keran was so frightened by her that she shuddered, what! With her own blood for support, she almost threw the things in her hand out, it was really dirty.
Zhu Xin wanted to speak and stopped, but suddenly met Gu Yanran's gaze, her gaze was a little sharp, her eyes were warning, Zhu Xin saw Gu Yanran's gaze and didn't have the heart to say anything, she was so angry that she couldn't do it, if her daughter was half of someone's cleverness, how could she be led by others.
It's good now, not only did she not let Gu Yanran lose face in front of Old Man Gu, but also made her please, Gu Xinran is a smart person, standing aside without saying a word, it still seems that Gu Keran has no sense of proportion at all.
is also the daughter of the Gu family, why is there such a big difference, Zhu Xin is angry, but she is reluctant to blame.
"You have a heart. Old Man Gu was finally willing to put things down, and his eyes were full of love when he looked at Gu Yanran, but how much was sincere, and it was unknown.
"Yes, Grandpa likes it. Gu Yanran smiled faintly.
"You've taught a good daughter. Old Man Gu glanced at Gu Fangyan with a smile in his eyes.
Everyone present who knows the Gu family well doesn't know that the fifth lady of the Gu family is raised outside, I heard that it is in her grandfather's house, where did the second child of the Gu family fulfill his father's responsibility, everyone knows it, but no one picks it out.
Gu Yanran smiled, she could be regarded as having completely seen the hypocrisy of the Gu family today, and it really hasn't changed at all over the years.
"How old is Yan Ran?" Old Man Gu looked at Gu Yanran standing in front of him, a little in a trance, and he was really similar to the daughter-in-law who was gone.
"Twenty. "It's ironic for my own grandfather to ask how old he is.
"Well, it's not small. Old Man Gu's eyes sank, "There are still many outstanding children of the family in the city, I have seen them all, and a few of them are not bad, worthy of you." ”
Gu Yanran sneered in his heart, and finally said their purpose, all the foreshadowing today is for this moment.
"Yes, yes. Lin Mannan responded on the side, she glanced in a certain direction, and said with a smile: "Look, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, Wen Hao is here." ”
Everyone looked in the direction that Lin Mannan pointed, and when they saw the person coming, they knew in their hearts.
Gu Yanran saw the figure coming clearly, frowning slightly, is it him?
"Wen Hao, come on. Lin Mannan cordially beckoned him over.
"Aunt Lin, Uncle Gu, Grandpa Gu. He walked over and said hello to them one by one.
"Wen Hao, this is the niece Yanran that Aunt Lin told you last time. Lin Mannan led him to Gu Yanran.
Gu Yanran was really impatient, she turned her face slightly and didn't look at him.
As a result, her side face surprised the person in front of her, and his eyes showed surprise and surprise, "It's you!"
It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get here, before letting people check her identity, more than half a month has passed, and there is no news at all, which makes him itch all day long, who knows that he met here.
"Xu Gongzi. Gu Yanran smiled lightly at him, but he didn't want to talk to him too much.
"You remember me. Xu Wenhao couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Do you know?" Lin Mannan was a little surprised, if the two of them met, then things would be easy to handle.
Gu Yanran: "I don't know." ”
Xu Wenhao: "Yes." ”
……
Xu Wenhao smiled: "Actually, I don't know each other, we just met on the plane." ”
"It's fate to meet once. Lin Mannan hurriedly came out to adjust the atmosphere, "Young people can just talk to each other, we are not the same as you like when we are old, Yan Ran has not been back to Nanjing for a long time, Wen Hao, if you have time in the evening, take her out for a walk." She turned her head to look at Old Man Gu, "Dad, did you say yes?" ”
"Well, young people go where young people should go, and there is no need to be here with me, an old man. Old Man Gu looked at Xu Wenhao, and then at Gu Yanran, and immediately felt that his decision was not wrong, and the Xu family was a good choice.
The Xu family also has a lot of status in the city, and Gu Yanran's identity is worthy of him, not to mention the current situation, it seems that Xu Wenhao is still very interested in her.
"Aunt Lin, Grandpa Gu, don't talk about the evening, I am also very idle during the day, naturally I can take Yanran out for a walk, you two don't have to bother, who else in this Nanjing City is better than me, and I am naturally clear about what are the good places." Xu Wenhao looked at Gu Yanran more and more, he didn't look carefully before, but when he saw her again this time, he suddenly felt that her smile was very attractive.
"That's naturally good, but thank you Wen Hao. Lin Mannan was talking to himself on the side, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and automatically ignored Gu Yanran's own wishes.
Gu Yanran glanced at it coldly, and then said with a smile on Xu Wenhao's face: "Then trouble Mr. Xu." ”
"Don't don't, don't be so angry, just call me Wen Hao. Xu Wenhao saw Gu Yanran's face shy
like, his heart is angry, he must not be able to let go of such a stunner.
The Gu family has the intention of marrying Gu Yanran to her, anyway, sooner or later it will be his person, why didn't he start earlier.
Xu Wenhao can't wait to take her out at this moment and find a place to taste her.
Xu Wenhao's expression was in the eyes of the people around him, and several people were secretly pregnant with ghosts, who didn't know who Xu Wenhao was in Nanjing City, he didn't learn or have no skills, and he lingered on women all day long, but he was born in the Xu family, even if it was just a side branch of the Xu family, there were a lot of women who pasted it up.
Zhu Xin is envious and gloating, envious that the old man Gu put Gu Yanran's marriage before Keran, so that a flawed woman like Gu Yanran can be on the list of the Xu family, gloating that this Xu family is notorious and not a good person.
Gu Yanran didn't care, she raised her head and looked at Gu Xinran behind Lin Mannan, Gu Xinran smiled, but Gu Yanran saw her hatred from it, women's intuition is sometimes really accurate, especially because of men.
Gu Yanran raised her eyebrows and gave her a fearless look.
Gu Xinran smiled coldly, Gu Keran has no brains, she never takes it seriously, it seems that Gu Yanran, who has never been in the Gu family, is the real master.
