Section 241 Contributions
Coming out of the palace, Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun went to the old mansion again.
Gu Yantao was not at home.
The eldest lady came out to greet them, a little surprised.
Gu Jinzhi came yesterday and came again today, which is unusual.
"But what's the matter?" The eldest lady invited Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun to sit in the upper room, and after the maids served tea, they went straight to the point and asked.
Zhu Zhongjun ignored it, took the tea and drank it in one gulp, looking very thirsty.
Then he took the teacup and gave it to the maid.
The big girl was clever and hurriedly went to add tea to Zhu Zhongjun.
Gu Jinzhi replied to the eldest lady's words with a smile: "I can't sit here if I have nothing to do?" I miss you......"
The eldest lady laughed and gently scraped her face: "This mouth is smeared with honey today?" Let's talk about it, what the hell is going on? Did your eldest brother ask you to do something? β
She didn't think about the court, she just thought of Gu Chenzhi.
"Nope." Gu Jin said, "Auntie, when will the uncle come back?" I have something I want to discuss with my uncle......"
The eldest lady was slightly surprised.
She looked at Gu Jinzhi puzzled.
Gu Jinzhi asked again: "It's already in the court, is the uncle in the palace or in the yamen?" β
The eldest lady was confused, and when she saw that Gu Jinzhi refused to speak, she looked like an adult, and wanted to laugh again.
"Is there a real urgency?" The eldest lady coaxed Gu Jinzhi and said with a smile, "I'll send someone to find it?" β
Gu Jinzhi said yes.
The eldest lady somehow, but she also took it as a joke, and told the maid with a smile to let her go to the second gate to find a small servant, and let me go and find the eldest master to come back.
While he was talking, the fifth girl, Gu Pozhi, came in.
She was also taken aback and asked, "Why is the seventh sister here again?" β
The eldest lady coughed.
The fifth girl also regretted her words, and stood there a little embarrassed, thinking about how to make up for it.
Gu Jinzhi usually doesn't come to the door much. Yesterday came, today it came again. It is inevitable that people think that the eldest lady is sick.
The fifth girl has been by the eldest lady's side for half a year, and she also knows that the eldest lady really feels sorry for her and has a little feeling, so she lost her words.
Although she was still unhappy yesterday for the eldest lady to make fun of her future in-laws......
"I'll take a look at Uncle." Gu Jinzhi smiled, "Where is the fifth sister from?" A sweat ...... in my head"
The fifth girl was in a hurry just now, and there was indeed sweat on her forehead.
She brought food to the third grandmother for the eldest lady.
"I went to the third sister-in-law's side." The fifth girl replied.
The eldest lady took the opportunity to ask about the situation in the pharmacy.
Knowing that he hadn't been doing business recently, Gu Chenzhi was just learning some basic skills, and the eldest lady bowed slightly.
Then he asked the old man's body again.
Song Pan'er came yesterday, and the eldest lady had already asked.
Gu Jinzhi still answered one by one.
After saying about two teas, Zhu Zhongjun began to pull Gu Jinzhi's sleeve. Appears impatient.
He has handsome facial features, but he looks stupid, which makes his handsomeness discounted. The fifth girl watched him play with Gu Jinzhi's sleeve stupidly. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
For such a fool, Gu Jin has been in it all his life, what a pity!
If you change yourself, you'd rather not be so rich.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jinzhi was not annoyed, and coaxed King Luyang in a low voice. asked him what was going on, and he was very patient, so that the eldest lady and the fifth girl praised her from the bottom of their hearts for being sensible.
"When are you leaving?" King Luyang asked in a low voice.
The eldest lady took the opportunity to say: "I'm afraid the prince is annoying." Sister Jin, what's the matter, sue Aunt SΓΉ, go back and tell Aunt SΓΉ your uncle? β
Gu Jinzhi didn't hesitate, and immediately said, "I'll tell the uncle in person......" and then turned his head. He gently squeezed King Luyang's hand and said, "I'll go back after a while." Good no good? β
King Luyang's expression was a little hurt, although he was a little reluctant, he still nodded.
When he was unhappy, he pursed his mouth, which was very distressing. No wonder the Queen Mother loves this little son so much, the eldest lady couldn't help but think.
The thought flashed through me. It turned to Gu Jinzhi.
The eldest lady finally paid a little attention to her intentions.
Seeing her like this is a very important matter, and I have to tell the eldest master.
What is the matter in the third room that can make Gu Jinzhi's little girl come forward to say?
Only the old man's business.
The eldest lady remembered that during the New Year, she said that the old man's life was coming to an end, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and looked at Gu Jinzhi with a slightly uneasy expression: "Sister Jin, did your grandfather have something to say for you to bring to your uncle?" β
Gu Jinzhi was slightly surprised, and hurriedly said: "No...... No......"
Her expression made the eldest lady more sure of her guess, there must be something wrong with the old man.
The eldest lady sat down beside Gu Jinzhi, took her hand, and asked her earnestly, "What's wrong with your grandfather?" Good boy, don't you sue Uncle SΓΉ, or do you sue Aunt SΓΉ? No matter what happens to my grandfather, I have to help my aunt handle it when I go back......"
The fifth girl was thinking, the old man is not good, right?
Thinking of this, she was a little happy.
If her grandfather dies, she will be the heir of their second room, and she can also have a biological father who is the grandfather of the country, which is more glorious.
The fifth girl has not been familiar with the old man since she was a child, except for meeting each other during the New Year's holidays.
Every time they met, the old man said that it was cold and lonely, making it difficult for people to get close.
The fifth girl is not an amorous person.
The old man was a stranger to her.
She heard her mother say that once the old man was gone, it would be their second house heir, and she was a little interested in that grandfather.
Unlike Gu Jinzhi, he has studied art with the old man since he was a child, and he has a good relationship with the old man.
Although she was happy in her heart, she also knew that she couldn't show it, otherwise the eldest aunt would be angry, so the fifth girl hung her head.
When she covered up her love and raised her head again, she found that King Luyang was looking at her.
This made her a little uncomfortable, as if her careful thinking had been seen through.
She glared at King Luyang.
King Luyang pulled Gu Jinzhi's sleeve uneasily, looking very scared.
Before Gu Jinzhi could answer the eldest lady's words, he was pulled by King Luyang again......
She had to answer King Luyang's question first.
King Luyang timidly pointed to the five girls and said, "She...... She glared at me. Xiao Qi, she bullied me......"
The five girls are indistinguishable.
The eldest lady was shocked, and hurriedly got up and said, "Sister Po, hurry up and accompany the prince!" "I was afraid that the king of Luyang would go to the queen mother to complain, and said to the king of Luyang, "The prince misunderstood." She's not looking well......"
"She just glared at me....... "King Luyang didn't give up."
He made such a fuss, the eldest lady only cared about coaxing him, and she didn't have the heart to ask Gu Jinzhi about the purpose of coming.
But the king of Luyang did not listen.
The eldest lady and the fifth girl had to keep making amends for him.
His temper did not stop until the maid came in and said that the eldest master was back.
Gu Jinzhi hurriedly got up, and together with the eldest lady, he went to the gate of the courtyard to greet the eldest master.
The eldest lord didn't have a good impression of Gu Jinzhi, because he was scolded in the court, and he was not in a good mood. Nodding coldly at her, he moved into the house.
The eldest lady was busy serving him to freshen up and change his clothes.
After freshening up, the maid brought tea. The eldest lord sat down to drink tea, and then asked the eldest lady: "Send someone to find me, what's the matter?" β
"What's wrong with me?" The eldest lady smiled and pointed at Gu Jinzhi, "Sister Jin said. There is something to say to Uncle SΓΉ. β
The eldest man frowned slightly, looking at Gu Jinzhi a little puzzled.
Gu Jinzhi stood up and said, "Uncle, I have something to say to you...... then glanced at the eldest lady and the five girls and the maids who were serving in the room, and said, "Can I talk to you alone?" β
The eldest lord's brows furrowed even deeper. It was expected that Gu Jinzhi was nothing serious, and he was a little unhappy.
He, like the eldest lady, saw Gu Jinzhi coming. I thought it was the old man's business.
The old man has no good impression of the old man.
"I entered the palace with the prince today." Gu Jinzhi saw that the uncle had also misunderstood, so he smiled and prompted, "When you come out of the palace, you come here." β
The eldest lord was stunned.
The eldest lady was also stunned.
The fifth girl also thought in her heart, is it about Concubine De or the third princess? She couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen.
The eldest lord did not hesitate any longer. Walked to the small study, and Gu Jinzhi hurriedly followed.
The small study is on the east side of the main courtyard. Next to the east room, the small two rooms are full of books and some inconsequential pieces......
Two little maidens serve here.
Gu Yantao sat behind the bookcase, and Gu Jinzhi stood in front of the bookcase.
A begonia in the yard happened to be in the window, climbing and stretching, almost reaching into the study.
"What's the matter?" The eldest lord asked Gu Jinzhi.
"I went into the palace today to greet the mother and the queen mother. Listening to Niangniang, the emperor has not been very happy recently. Because of the matter of the commander of Annan, Concubine Zhang Shufei asked, and the emperor not only scolded Concubine Zhang Shu, but even Tan Guifei Niangniang, who was present. Gu Jinzhi didn't hesitate, and said slowly, "The emperor should be very angry, right?" β
Isn't it just angry?
The emperor was simply furious.
It's useless for anyone to intercede, they have to arrest and behead the boss who calms the chaos and re-elect the general......
The cabinet disagreed, and was in a stalemate with the emperor.
Gu Yantao is almost out of line.
The distance is far away, and the midway cut will affect morale even more. No matter how big the boss's mistake is, it is better to dismiss him, and it is the right way to deal with it after the battle.
Gu Yantao also had a headache.
"What else did the mother say?" Gu Yantao didn't answer Gu Jinzhi's words, but asked.
Niangniang said that she had just come out of confinement, and her body was not very good, so she was too lazy to get involved in the affairs of the palace, so she did not meet her. Now that she is alone, the uncle can rest assured that she ......," Gu Jinzhi said again.
Gu Yantao thought that Gu Jinzhi was just speaking for Concubine De.
Impatience came up again on his face.
"She knows how to take care of herself, and that's good." Gu Yantao said coldly, not very concerned, "That's it?" β
He kind of wanted to get angry.
"It's not." Gu Jin said, "On the way back, I thought about it, the emperor is not very happy, and the uncle should not be happy in the cabinet." Can I help my uncle......"
Gu Yantao raised his head and stared at her.
ββ¦β¦ The prince listens to me like this, if I ask him to agree to reinforce the guards, and the grain and grass will also come out of the taxes in Luzhou, wouldn't it be for the emperor to relieve his worries and make the uncle feel relieved? "Gu Jin's way.
Gu Yantao was stunned.
A smile slowly trickled through his eyes.
"Is that what you mean, or did your grandfather tell you something?" Gu Yantao finally smiled.
"That's what I meant!" Gu Jin's way.
Gu Yantao thought that it must be the old man who pointed out Gu Jinzhi.
With such words, I'm afraid that even Gu Yanzhen doesn't have the ability to think of it, let alone the young Gu Jinzhi? can think of this, except for Gu Yantao, the Gu family is an old man.
