Chapter 137 Salary Draw

Gu Xiao hurriedly smiled, turned around and followed Prime Minister Yan to the inner courtyard.

In the flower hall of the main courtyard, the lights were bright, Gu Xiao accompanied Prime Minister Yan Cheng to eat supper slowly, and behind the screen on the east side of the flower hall, the swaying figures were crowded around.

Gu Xiao accompanied Prime Minister Yan Cheng to eat supper, and chatted with him for half an hour, the little girl smiled and took a cup of lotus seed and red date tea, and served it to Prime Minister Yan, Prime Minister Yan picked up the cup, looked at it carefully, stood up with a smile, patted Gu Xiao's shoulder, and said affectionately:

"Okay, it's late tonight, the old man won't keep you much, I'll let you go back, and you will come over often in the future to drink and talk with the old man."

Gu Xiao hurriedly stood up, forced his hands, respectfully agreed, hesitated, and asked with a smile:

"Is Cousin Ke ......?"

"Don't wait for him, go back first."

Prime Minister Yan sent Gu Xiao to the door of the flower hall with a smile, and watched people lead him out of the courtyard along the verandah, then nodded with satisfaction and turned back to the flower hall.

Gu Xiao got into the car outside the gate of Yanfu, the car just turned a corner, and an extremely wide carriage came over, Qingping sat sideways on the wheel, and saw that he was sitting on the door pedal of Gu Xiao's car, and his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly jumped out of the car and ran towards Gu Xiao's car.

Qingping stepped forward to stop the car, with a smile on his face, and asked respectfully:

"It's the car of the young master of the Gu family, right?"

Gu Xiao heard Qingping's voice, hurriedly lifted the curtain, poked his head out, Qingping bowed his hand, and said with a smile:

"Our master is in the car in front, please ask Young Master Gu to come over and speak."

Gu Xiao hurriedly jumped out of the car, followed Qingping, and got into Zhou Jingran's car.

Zhou Jingran was idly crooked in the car, looking at the bright glass cup in the carriage, looking at the book, seeing Gu Xiao coming in, he straightened up slightly, let Gu Xiao sit next to him, and said with a smile:

"Just came out of Prime Minister Yan's mansion?"

Gu Xiao smiled and nodded in agreement, Zhou Jingran threw away the book in his hand, looked Gu Xiao up and down, and said with a smile:

"Isn't the lantern festival in Prime Minister Yan's mansion already gone? Why did you come back until this point? ”

"The prime minister left me for supper before letting me come back."

Gu Xiao scratched his head and explained with a smile, Zhou Jingran raised his eyebrows in surprise, sat up straight, looked at Gu Xiao with a smile in his eyes and said:

"Did the prime minister leave you for supper? So Prime Minister Yan eats well and is in a good mood? ”

Gu Xiao looked at Zhou Jingran inexplicably, nodded and said:

"The prime minister was very happy to eat, and after eating supper, he left me to talk for a while, and he was also very happy."

Zhou Jingran clapped his hands lightly and laughed,

"Congratulations, Congratulations, Little Brother Gu, I'm very happy."

Gu Xiao blinked, and looked blankly at Zhou Jingran, who was full of joy and congratulated him, Zhou Jingran looked at him, laughed for a while, and then asked strangely:

"Haven't you heard?"

Gu Xiao shook his head blankly, Zhou Jingran sighed with emotion, and patiently explained:

"Prime Minister Yan has only two sons, the eldest son is also two sons, the second son gave birth to a daughter and a son, in the entire Yan Mansion, two generations, but only this girl, is the prime minister's wife's palm pearl, heart meat, two sons, three grandsons and a granddaughter, the prime minister hurts the most, is this little granddaughter, the eldest lady of the Yan family is also seventeen years old this year, since last year, Prime Minister Yan began to invite young talents from the capital to come to the door and accompany him to eat supper. This is Prime Minister Yan picking his grandson-in-law."

Gu Xiao blinked his eyes in amazement, unable to react for a while, Zhou Jingran patted him gently, and continued with envy on his face:

"I really want to congratulate the little brother Gu, if the little brother Gu becomes the fast son-in-law of Prime Minister Yan's family, with the character and talent of the little brother Gu, this future is like a flower, and the future is just around the corner

Gu Xiao came to his senses, shook his head hurriedly, and before he could speak, Zhou Jingran had already continued with great interest,

"Last year, if you hadn't traveled with Mr. Suiyun for a whole year, I'm afraid that this supper would have been eaten a long time ago, and your relatives would have been married."

Zhou Jingran stepped back, squinted his eyes, looked Gu Xiao up and down seriously, and sighed,

"No wonder the prime minister is so happy to eat supper today, look at the character and talent of the little brother Gu, but it is difficult to find the son of the champion of Lianzhong Sanyuan with a lantern, and he is the introductory disciple of Mr. Suiyun.

Gu Xiao's face turned red, he hurriedly shook his head, and said anxiously:

"Brother Zhou, isn't it...... Can't, alas, no, I'm ...... That one...... Not really. ”

Zhou Jingran looked at Gu Xiao with wide eyes, and asked with a puzzled face:

"Where can't it? What not? Have you ever married? ”

"No, no...... That, Brother Zhou, you know, Nuan Nuan, and Nuan Nuan......"

Gu Xiao didn't know how to make it clear for a while, Zhou Jingran let out a long "oh", relaxed and leaned back on the pillow, nodded Gu Xiao and said with a smile:

"No wonder your cousin Ke said that you are a solid-eyed child, and you and Xiao Nuan have a marriage contract? Changed the Geng post, and made a small decision? ”

"Not really."

Gu Xiao said honestly,

"But ......"

"That's it, it's just your thoughts."

"The ancestor also said that the ancestor promised me"

Gu Xiao hurriedly explained, Zhou Jingran was stunned, his eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, then he stretched his waist, leaned back and laughed, laughed for a while, and then squinted at Gu Xiao and said slowly:

"You are really a sincere child, your warmth should naturally be yours, that's it, and it won't delay you to be the prime minister's son-in-law, it's not two different things."

Gu Xiao blinked, he didn't understand for a while, Zhou Jingran sighed, sat up straight, and patiently explained:

"What is it that you take a wife? It's a family background, it's a character, this marriage, it's two families, think about it, your father, if it weren't for the champion of Lianzhong Sanyuan, married your mother, and made relatives with the Zhenning Marquis Mansion and Runan Wangfu, how could there be an ancient family that is one of the famous nobles in the capital today? Mrs. Li gave you a warm promise, why didn't you change the Geng post until now, and made a small decision? ”

Gu Xiao looked at Zhou Jingran blankly, Zhou Jingran stretched out his hand and patted him, and said with a heartfelt feeling:

"The old lady is a shrewd person, she thinks clearly about everything, and thinks long-term, she must also have high hopes in your marriage, but like this?"

Gu Xiao thought about it and nodded, Zhou Jingran stared at him closely, and continued in a soothing tone:

"The Gu family is now the only one seedling, and your father is so wronged...... Alas, your house, the old lady and your mother, must have high hopes for you, but so? ”

Gu Xiao nodded his head again and again, Zhou Jingran stroked Gu Xiao's back, sighed and said:

"But you have neither family support, nor a brother to take care of, the so-called single tree is difficult to support, and if you don't take advantage of marriage to connect a deep-rooted wife, in the future, old lady, your mother, this high hope, will not fall into the void? The old lady promised Xiao Nuan to you, but never mentioned the matter of marriage, think about it, what is the reason? ”

Gu Xiao's eyes flickered suspiciously, and Zhou Jingran stared at him tightly, sighing sincerely,

"You, take a good look at the thoughts of the ancestors, these days, you follow your cousin Ke around, you see, which one is not supported?"

"Cousin Ke...... Will take care of me"

Gu Xiao said in a low and hesitant voice, Zhou Jingran looked at Gu Xiao with pity, and shook his head gently,

"You, say you're solid, I'm really not wrong about you, your cousin's surname is Cheng, what's your surname? The surname is different from the ancient clan, but it is just a cousin, he takes care of you, where can he take care of you? Everything, you still have to rely on yourself, alas, to say something unpleasant, as the saying goes, aunt cousin, not a relative, dead aunt broke off, although the words are rough, but what is said is right, you have to think about it"

Zhou Jingran said with a long sigh, Gu Xiao looked at Zhou Jingran with struggling eyes, and his words were slurred and he was almost speechless.

"But, Nuan Nuan, Nuan Nuan ......"

"Nuan Nuan is still your Nuan Nuan, and no one took away your marriage, and then accepted her."

Gu Xiao shook his head again and again,

"No, you don't know, Nuan Nuan has a big temper ......"

"Didn't you say that your Nuan Nuan is smart and sensible, and is very sensible, do you?"

Zhou Jingran squinted his eyes and asked, Gu Xiao nodded hurriedly, and was about to speak, Zhou Jingran patted him, and then said:

"If she can understand things, then she should know, if she blindly has a big temper and ruins your future, even her, there is no future for a woman to marry, but she is looking forward to a wealth and honor, and her husband is pampered, so that you can live a good life, if you don't have a future, let her pet the room alone for a lifetime, what can you do? Your Nuan Nuan is a strong one, think about it, how can she be willing? ”

Gu Xiao was confused and hesitated, not knowing whether to nod or shake his head, Zhou Jingran squinted at him, leaned over slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Your ancient family has been passed down for two generations, and the clan has always been not prosperous, and in the future, it is not difficult to say that one wood supports two rooms, and it is not difficult to marry two wives, isn't this the best of both worlds? In the future, you have a fame, and it is also a trivial matter to let your cousin Ke help beg the emperor. ”

Gu Xiao raised his head suddenly, his eyes lit up, he nodded again and again, scratched his head and laughed,

"It's still thoughtful that Brother Zhou thinks, but I just don't know...... Prime Minister He ......"

Gu Xiao was a little embarrassed, Zhou Jingran secretly breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back idly, and said with a smile:

"If you can't even look down on you, then the eldest lady of the Yan family has to stay in the boudoir from now on, this is full of capital, you have such a character, talent, family background, and is a disciple of Mr. Suiyun, how can there be more suitable than you?"

Gu Xiao's face was flushed, and he was a little embarrassed
