Gu Cheng was speechless.
Nanyang Gu's recent scenery is infinite, Gu Yan has made outstanding military achievements, and Jiang has been named Mrs. Ningguo, she is the only lady of the imperial court, and her status is far above that of a first-class woman.
In addition, Gu Mingnuan was named the county lord of Jianing.
There is no family in the entire imperial capital that is more beautiful than the Gu family.
Gu Zheng has also jumped from a low-ranking pavilion veteran to a second assistant, and many people are already optimistic that Gu Zheng will become the first assistant within five years.
Of course, the premise is that the Nanyang Gu family will not be defeated by the Xiao family.
However, the Gu family obviously didn't need to worry too much, and the news that Xiao Yang and the county lord of Jianing were about to marry spread all over the imperial capital.
Thinking of the time when the Xiao family and the Gu family broke off their friendship for Yin Ru in the past, and then listening to the news that Xiao Yang loved Gu Mingnuan, the people or the princes and ministers all sighed that the world was impermanent.
Emperor Chu tried his best to encircle the Gu family in Nanyang, hoping that the Gu family would not be dragged away by the Xiao family, and Xiao Yang frequently gave the Gu family benefits because of Gu Mingnuan.
The Nanyang Gu family, which was sandwiched between Emperor Chu and the Xiao family, became more and more alive, and most of the courtiers had to stand in line in advance, whether they were loyal to Emperor Chu or attached to the Xiao family.
Gu Cheng was not worried at all that the courtiers would stumble on him during his imperial examination, because no matter who the courtiers leaned to, they would not offend the Gu family lightly at this time.
Gu Mingxin looked at Gu Cheng's slightly ashamed face, "Dad, you really disappointed me!" ”
After saying that, she turned around and left very quickly, Gu Cheng wanted to chase but didn't know what to say when she caught up with her daughter. Can you not chase ...... He felt guilty in his heart, slowly lowered his head, and muttered again, "What did I do wrong again?" ”
He couldn't watch Yin Ru die. I just sent a few herbs, I didn't think about seeing Yin Ru, and I didn't want to hurt the clansmen because of Yin Ru's complaints.
The scorching sun was obscured by the clouds, and before a moment it began to rain.
The servant on the other side held up an umbrella for the sluggish Second Master Cheng, "Second Master, go back to the house first." ”
"I remember...... I remember that Sister Xin likes Hetian Yu. Gu Cheng muttered: "There are materials from Hetian jade in the warehouse. I carved a seal for her myself. ”
Wouldn't his daughter look at him so sadly and disappointed?
was 'tortured' by Gu Yan, and Gu Cheng's thoughts about missing Yin Ru were a lot lighter.
Didn't he acquiesce to his mother's renewal?
Years of habit made Gu Cheng still unable to completely ignore Yin Ru. When she is in trouble, he always wants to help her.
Gu Cheng turned to the warehouse, and the housekeeper holding the account book rummaged through the warehouse and finally found a box of Hetian jade on the dusty shelf, and carefully wiped off the dust. Hand it to Gu Cheng. "Do you think these are the pieces?"
Opening the box and taking a look, Gu Cheng nodded, returned to the study with a cane, sat on the Luohan bed near the window, listened to the sound of falling rain outside, held a carving knife in his hand, and carved the seal steadily...... Li Shi heard that the steward said that the second master carved the seal, and hurriedly rushed over. Lying at the door and looking at it for a long time, a relieved smile slowly appeared on Li's lips. Helping the maid beside him to leave quietly.
"It's engraved for Sister Xin, a good thing, okay."
Since Yin Ru left, Gu Cheng vowed not to carve seals again.
He not only carved seals, but also carved ornaments, and now he is willing to take a carving knife again, proving that he has forgotten Yin Ru.
Li cheered up, made up his face in the mirror, changed into a bright shirt, looked left, and looked again, "I heard that Jiang is going to the Northland?" ”
The attitude is very casual, and it is difficult to hide the concern in the words.
"I'll leave in two days, and Gu is busy packing up for Mrs. Jiang at the house." The maidservant girl looked at the Li family, "I heard that Gu Cifu originally didn't agree with her going to the Northland, but she was later taught a lesson by the old lady of the long house. ”
"Is there anything my good sister-in-law can't do? Still use the old lady to come forward? ”
Li chose a royal blue forehead, the gem inlaid in the middle was shining, and he sighed complicatedly: "She is leaving, I don't know when she will return to the capital, I'm afraid I won't see her in this life...... Hmph, Gu Yan is a nephew in the end, and she has always been rough, she just rushed to run away, and she was not afraid that Gu Yan would marry her daughter-in-law and forget to be filial to her in the future. ”
The maidservant kept busy, wiped her forehead for the Li family, and praised: "You are really in good spirits today." ”
"Prepare a sedan chair, I'll send her off, eat in one pot for many years, and there will still be some love left."
Li Shi flashed a trace of embarrassment, and ordered: "Wrap up the useless and unattractive things I found out yesterday, and use them as my parting gifts for her." ”
The maidservants lowered their heads and couldn't help laughing, yesterday the old lady was busy rummaging through the cabinets for most of the night, and selected useless 'good things', which were originally intended to be given to Mrs. Jiang.
The servants of the Gu family all knew that the two rooms were not dealing with each other, and the Li family would sneer when they met Mrs. Jiang, and they wanted to stab Mrs. Jiang twice to get angry.
Gu Zhai, Jade Peach Pavilion, Jiang didn't seem too surprised by Li's arrival, the two sat down, Jiang glanced at the gift box on the sitting, and said with a smile: "Let my younger brother and sister break the bank." ”
Li pursed the corners of his mouth, "It's not a waste of money, a little bit of fun, you know that my son is rich and rivals the country, and he is a filial child, and a little bit of exposure between my fingers is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink." ”
"Plucking hair is as thick as my waist?"
Jiang took Li's next sentence, and looked at it playfully, and Li looked at it with a sneering expression, "My brother and sister are not just here to see me off today." ”
Li opened his mouth, completely removed his hostility, and said calmly: "Many people are looking forward to you having a good time. ”
"Yan'er has already sent someone to protect me." Jiang's smile stung Li's eyes, and it was like this again, every time she wanted to show off, Jiang could always return it quietly.
Gu Yan is amazing?!
It's not Jiang's own birth.
However, this time Jiang's 'inadvertent' showing off did not make Li's heart ache, looking around, they were talking, and the slaves all retreated to the door, and asked softly: "Is he really your nephew?" ”
Jiang Shi turned the hand of the Buddha bead and paused, his expression condensed slightly for a moment, and a light smile appeared at the corner of her mouth again.
Li Shi was stunned, since Gu Shilang left, she had never seen Jiang smile so happily, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows flowed with happiness and comfort, even if Jiang's only daughter had never seen her smile like this when she got married.
"Cherish all the way, and remember to send me a letter to report safety when you arrive in the Northland."
"Brother and sister, do you remember what I said in Yanjing City?"
Of course, Li remembered that Jiang pointed to the rebels besieging the city below that day and said, "If I die, the whole world will know."
At this moment, the Li family completely let go of the mind of competing with the Jiang family, and the father-in-law chose to choose the Jiang family, and before his death, he crossed the four sons to hand over the Gu family's hole cards to the Jiang family, what a correct choice.
Even if the Jiang family can't keep the Gu family prosperous, it won't let the Nanyang Gu family be ashamed.
