Chapter 54: Gu Qing Leaves His Soul

The author eats a meal and comes back twenty minutes later to change the main chapter.

Li Jun, as the first person from Jingnan's hometown to go to Beijing, was warmly welcomed by Li Mao, the Duke of Xinguo.

The second son, who has not been much noticed, has now begun to become an object that people can rely on, and Li Mao said that he has been greatly satisfied in a certain place in his heart.

If Li Shuo is the only hero of the old Li family who has made a move for so many years, and Li Meng is the only handsome guy who has been able to do it for so many years, then Li Mao, like his two cousins, represents the normal level of the old Li family. But no matter what the level is, a good background is a good background, he was born right, and finally inherited the huge Xinguo Mansion.

Li Mao's two cousins, since they became rich, also began to work hard to let the children in the family read and learn words, but just like Li Mao and Li Meng were both enlightened by his father when they were children, and they were both taught by a very good husband, but Li Mao just didn't show anything particularly amazing, the two generations of the old Li family didn't see any other reading materials except for this concubine.

I have been reading for many years, which is the level of literacy.

So Li Mao was very curious about this nephew who had passed the township test, and hurriedly finished his business in the afternoon and immediately returned home.

When Li Mao returned to the house, the Fang family asked his subordinates to set up a dinner in the banquet hall in the East Garden to officially receive this nephew. Since Li Jun is not a son-in-law, the level of the family banquet is not very high, but even so, Li Jun is still moved.

When Li Jun and Li Mao met, Li Jun greeted him, saluted, accepted the gifts, and entered the banquet, already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.

The people at the dinner are still those people, but the banquet is no longer the same banquet.

The family banquet in the Xinguo Mansion is different from the old lady's regular banquet, Li Jun watched dozens of maids and servants serving in the banquet hall, and nervously didn't know what to say.

Daddy said yes! There are really a lot of people who specialize in picking up vegetables! You really just have to open your mouth! It's really not the same as the spoon that drinks soup! It's really a table of dishes that can't be eaten well and wasted!

It's really not enough to eat!

Li Jun said he was very sad.

"It's the end of the year, and the South Park is going to be sorted out and get next year, so I can only grieve you to live in the West Park first. Your two younger brothers live in the West Garden, and the place is very spacious, and you can live together, just so that you can get acquainted with each other. There are many classics in the 'Frost Hall' on the south side of the West Garden, which you can read at will. Li Mao said with a little pride:

"Recently, I have expanded the number of books in the 'Weishuang Hall' at home several times, and now the books that can be bought on the market have been collected in the five rooms of the 'Book Garden', so you don't have to buy books anymore."

When Li Jun heard this, he was very excited and hurriedly thanked Li Mao.

Li Mao said to Fang's again: "You arrange four more girls for Li Jun, two little maids, two rough maids and two mother-in-law." Li Mao compared the configuration that the concubine in the public mansion should have. It's just that there are no concubines in the Xinguo Mansion, and the two young masters are four big girls, four second-class girls, four small girls, and six rough girls and six mothers-in-law, with such specifications, this is the first time.

Li Mao has been a little awkward with the Fang family recently because of Li Ming's move, and the Fang family is also a lot colder. Fang Shi was about to find a step to roll down, and when he heard this, he immediately smiled and agreed:

"Don't worry, sir, it's all arranged. A small courtyard was also packed out in the West Garden, which was a little far away from Weishuang Hall and Qingcang Courtyard, but because it was far away from the main courtyard, it was very quiet and suitable for reading. ”

"Madame has always done things properly." Li Mao, who was in a good mood, praised Fang's words.

Fang looked at Li Jun with a smile and a loving expression. "It's rare for a nephew to come, so naturally he has to take care of it."

This was originally an atmosphere of joy for the guests and hosts, but Li Jun held back for a long time and said:

"The ......"

Gu Qing and the two children immediately looked at Li Jun with concern. Li Jun can choke people to death when he speaks, they have already learned it, and they don't know what they are going to say this time.

"Uncle, aunt, can you just arrange for the little maid to serve the nephew? The nephew is not used to the girl being close to the girl since he was a child, if he wants to serve the washing and the like, the nephew can come by himself, and there is no need to arrange a special girl. Li Jun blushed and shook his uncle and aunt: "My nephew is not sensible, so I will make amends first." ”

"You're nineteen years old, didn't you have a girl to serve you when you were at home in the past?" Li Mao looked at Li Jun strangely, "Freshening and ironing these things, the little guy is clumsy, how do you do it?" ”

"Please also ask my uncle and aunt to fulfill it." Li Jun refused to get up.

"It's not that my nephew doesn't know how to lift, but whenever a young girl touches my nephew, my nephew will have strange rashes, sometimes stuttering, and difficulty breathing. My nephew is going to have spring next year, so I can't get sick at this time......"

Li Mao and Fang both showed suspicious expressions, and Li Ming and Li Rui felt a little funny and secretly turned their heads.

Gu Qing was a doctor before, and he had seen this situation, so he opened his mouth to make decisions for Li Jun:

"Stop talking, isn't it interesting to watch you talk in your back? Since you have this strange problem, then it's all a change of little guy. ”

"It's just that you're an adult, and you're always going to marry a wife in the future, so you can't keep the girl close, right? In my opinion, when the spring season is over, you have to get this problem cured quickly. ”

Li Jun straightened up, faced Gu Qing and said helplessly: "Grandmother, my nephew's family has also found many famous doctors for my grandson, and I have eaten all kinds of prescriptions, but it is not good." Grandchild...... I feel that this disease is incurable. If it is destined to be lonely for life, the grandson will also admit it. ”

Isn't it emotional allergies? Gu Qing looked at Li Jun with a helpless expression, he just behaved a little harder. There are also people who are so nervous that they are in shock!

After finding the source of his "fear of women", he can slowly make this allergy symptom gradually improve through hints and enlightenment. To say that it is an incurable disease is a little too much.

"I've seen you in the past. If you have trusted grandma, grandma can try it in the future and see if she can take care of you. Gu Qing said to Li Jun: "That's it...... It's not very pleasant, you have to be patient. ”

Li Jun listened to the treatment of his illness, where would he consider such a small problem as whether the treatment method was comfortable or uncomfortable!

It has been 12 years since he was seven years old, and it has not improved at all. If it weren't for the death of his grandfather, his father insisted that he keep filial piety for three years and not talk about others, and his problem would have become a laughing stock long ago.

"As long as there is a cure, but grandma is in charge!"

Gu Qing nodded. Well, the young man is conscious, and she should be cautious.

She had to recall how her colleague cured the child's phobia of dogs last time. It seems that you take your child to the dog farm every day, and start to contact the puppy?

Ouch, is she going to find a bunch of little girls to get him used to?

Belch...... She shouldn't have touched this compassion.

After the family banquet, Gu Qing returned to Zhiyun Courtyard, and Li Jun also returned to the West Garden with Li Ming and Li Rui.

In the afternoon, the two children had already taken Li Jun to visit the West Garden and the North Garden, so Li Jun also had a general idea of the situation in the two parks. He was originally a person who was at ease with what he encountered, not to mention that the accommodation arranged for him in the Xinguo Mansion was very proper, even if he was really thrown into the cowshed, as long as there was no rain on the roof and there was light to read, he would be willing to eat.

Fang's arrangement for Li Jun was a house with a separate courtyard, he had traveled for a long time, and he was already sleepy, so he hurriedly washed up and fell into bed.

It's just that he saw many people and many things this day, and he, a "countryman" who has never left home, is inevitably excited, although he is physically tired, his spirit is extremely excited.

He lay on the soft and warm big bed, thinking that he would gain a reputation in the future, even if he was a small official with a big sesame seed, it would be good to leave the house and go out of the house to become independent, of course, if he could take his own mother out of the house, it would be the best. I'm just afraid that my mother won't want to leave home......

He thought of his charitable cousin, his amiable uncle, and two excellent cousins, who were all good people, and did not despise himself like his mother-in-law, and he must find a way to repay him in the future......

He thought of his grandmother's words, his illness might be cured, and he could marry a wife and have children, and the family could be reunited. He must be like Uncle Lobby and Uncle Lobby, from the beginning to the end, only marrying one wife, so as not to let such an embarrassing situation occur again......

He thought about it a lot, but he still closed his eyes tightly.

Even if you're enjoying preferential treatment, never forget who you are. He clenched his fists and persuaded himself. Because this world will not forget. ’

He suppressed all the infinite reverie in his heart, and stayed up until late at night, and then gradually fell asleep.

West Garden, in Qingcang Courtyard.

"Brother, why is the eldest brother the eldest son? Isn't it true that a wife is not allowed to have children before she marries and enters the door? Although Li Ming is very young, he is no stranger to all kinds of worldly feelings. He was born in the public mansion, and the rules have been carved into his bones since he was a child.

"I don't know. I heard that this lobby brother was born to the concubine of the hall uncle, and this concubine was a girl who the hall uncle had been serving since she was a child, and later made a room. I'm afraid that the lobby uncle likes her very much, so the child stayed. ”

Li Rui, like Li Ming, is both a son-in-law and an only son, and it is not understandable that Lu would give birth to another boy before his wife gave birth to a child.

"Brother Lobby is so clumsy, I'm anxious for him, I'm afraid that if I become an official in the future, I won't know if I offend people." Li Ming sighed like an adult, "No wonder his mother-in-law doesn't like him, if I wasn't open-minded, I wouldn't like him either." ”

"How can you boast like this!" Li Rui knocked his younger brother on a chestnut. "That's the elder brother, and we can't say he's not behind our backs. I think he has a good heart, but he lacks normal interaction with people. Didn't he say that his mother-in-law didn't want to see him? Then it would be impossible to teach him well. ”

Li Rui thought of himself, without a mother, wouldn't his aunt also refuse to teach him well?

Li Jun was beaten and scolded at every turn, and he didn't know what it was like to be "disciplined". He is still dressed in fine clothes and food, and he grew up with a smooth upbringing, so Li Jun doesn't look like he has been properly taken care of, although his coat is bright, but the exposed collar is a little yellowed, showing that he is an old clothes.

Intimate clothing is the best way to see that the human body taken care of is inconsiderate, from small to big, this Li Jun's life at home is probably not very good.

"If only he hadn't been the eldest son. However, then again, if he is the eldest son, he will be alive and well at home, and I am afraid he will not come to Beijing to join us. After Li Ming finished speaking, he paused thoughtfully for a while.

"Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat?"

"Identity doesn't say anything, what matters is the foundation of the mind and body." Li Rui touched his brother's head. "There are very few families like ours, and most of the dignitaries' backyards are extremely complicated. Just like my maternal grandfather's house, isn't there also an uncle who was not born to my maternal grandmother? But he has also become a talent, and he has a good relationship with my uncle, and he loves me very much. A mother's attitude can sometimes determine the life and death and future of all the children in the family. Therefore, it is said that the eldest husband should be most cautious when marrying a wife, and that is the case. ”

"Many of the students we interact with on weekdays are also concubines in the family. Because the mother-in-law of the family has made it clear that her attitude will not be overshadowed by them, they have to study hard, wanting to earn a future with their own hands. People who are willing to be motivated, rather than lazy and lazy, are worthy of respect. ”

Li Ming nodded. "I see."

"The only one who has a position to criticize the identity of the elder brother is his mother-in-law, because his presence has caused damage to her status and dignity. But even so, it is not the cousin who is guilty, because man cannot choose whose belly he comes out of.

Li Rui also feels sorry for Li Jun, but his identity and position determine that he can only be close to this lobby brother, but not too close, otherwise it will be even more difficult for the sister-in-law of the lobby uncle to deal with himself in the future. That would only cause trouble for the lobby brother.

"I have three times a day, and I have been in the same situation. Brother, you have to keep in mind that sometimes if we are casual, it will cause irreparable consequences, sometimes even the tragedy of several generations. If you think twice before acting, you must be cautious and cautious. ”

Li Rui's voice was hoarse, his throat was itchy, and after saying this, his breathing began to be rapid again. He hurriedly took out a throat moisturizing pill from his purse and swallowed it, and drank some warm water, which made him much more comfortable.

"Brother......

"Huh?"

"You're thinking about these things every day, so you're trying to lose your head?" Li Ming naughtily tugged at his brother's braids, "Grandma said that I always put on a 'young and old' appearance, and I should really let grandma see what you look like now, this is called 'young and old'." ”

Li Rui's face twitched unnaturally.

'Little fool, to your grandmother, of course, the younger and cuter you are, the more painful you are! ’

In the side courtyard of the West Garden, Li Jun had already gotten up.

He was used to waking up early, and even though he was very tired yesterday and slept late, he still woke up naturally at dawn.

He got out of bed and tried to pick up his clothes and put them on, but found a new brocade cotton robe and a fur coat already on the compartment at the end of the bed. Obviously, the Xinguo Mansion was worried that Li Jun's clothes were not enough to keep out the cold, so he sent someone to send them over.

Li Jun looked at the style again, like his uncle Li Mao's clothes, I was afraid that the new work was not so fast, so he first took his uncle's new clothes and sent them over for him to use.

Li Jun got out of bed and got dressed himself. The people outside heard the movement in the inner bedroom, and hurriedly knocked on the door and entered the room.

Two thirteen or fourteen-year-old children, one holding a basin of water, the other carrying towels, flour and other things into the house.

"Young Master Tang has already risen? The next time the young master wakes up, he just needs to shout, and we will wait in the corner room outside the house. The one holding the basin is called Xiaoliu, with a lively personality, and he said with a smile: "Young Master Tang's scholar is still asleep in the next room, I asked Xiaohu to wake him up?" ”

"No need, he's working hard, let him sleep again." Li Jun rubbed his teeth with green salt, washed his face again, sat in front of the bronze mirror and combed his hair by himself, then turned his head and asked, "Which elder sent this brocade and fur robe in the morning?" ”

"It was sent by the master last night, but the young master didn't wake you up when he fell asleep, and I put it next to the bed in the morning. Madame sent someone to instruct, the sewing room will come later in the morning to tailor the young master, this winter is so cold, the young master is only wearing a cotton jacket, I am afraid that it will catch a cold. ”

Li Jun shook his head, "I haven't been afraid of the cold since I was a child, and a jacket can survive the winter." It's snowing heavily this year, and Kyori actually ......"

His words abruptly stopped.

Li Jun turned his head and asked the two little guys, "When does Uncle Cousin usually go to court?" ”

Now that it's dawn, Uncle Cousin has already gone to the court.

"Today's master should be Xiu Mu, right?" Xiaoliu asked Xiaohu, "Our lord rests every five days, and the last time my lord rested, it seemed to be the day Xiao Ye went home?" ”

Xiaohu, who was holding the towel, nodded.

Xiao Liu calculated in his heart for a while, "Well, that's right, today's master Xiu Mu should be in the mansion." ”

"Then you two accompany me to say goodbye to my cousin and uncle." Li Jun pushed open the door, "I don't remember the road very well, you can step forward and lead the way." ”

"Young Master Tang, don't you eat first?"

"No, I'm afraid of delaying business." Li Jun said as he walked out.

Xiao Liu and Xiao Hu glanced at each other, Xiao Liu shook his head and shrugged his shoulders inexplicably.

"Young Master! You'd better wear a fox fur! It's cold outside! Seeing that the young master had clearly asked them to lead the way, they had gone far away, so they hurriedly put down the things in their hands.

Xiao Liu picked up the coat at the end of the bed and ran out.

This young master is really an anxious child!

Li Jun's footsteps were like flying, and he waved his hand back casually.

"No, it's hot when I wear that."

Li Jun, under the guidance of the two little guys, first went to Zhiyun Courtyard to ask for peace. Gu Qing had just gotten up at this time, and breakfast had not yet been served, when he saw Li Jun coming over to say goodbye, he hurriedly beckoned him to have breakfast together.

Woo woo, since the two little ones got busy, she was the only one to eat alone in the morning.

Gu Qing warmly invited, Li Jun, as a junior, of course could not refuse.

It's just that he has something on his mind, and when he eats, he can't help but be in a trance, which is completely different from the sweet appearance he ate yesterday.

"What's wrong? Is it difficult for me to be strong? When Gu Qing saw Li Jun's appearance, he felt that his current performance was very similar to the expressions of those children who were eager to go out to play. Is there something wrong with you? ”

"Hey, does grandma see that?" Li Jun touched his head embarrassedly. "I want to go to my uncle early, so I can't swallow it."

"What can keep you from eating? Troubled by someone? Or have you been wronged by something? ”

As soon as Gu Qing finished asking, Li Jun hurriedly shook his head.

She wondered in her heart and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Actually, it's also grandchildren's guesses, but grandchildren just can't feel at ease." Li Jun put down the dishes and chopsticks, "When my grandson went to Beijing, there was a sudden heavy snowfall in Tongzhou and Fenzhou on the way, and all the cars and horses that went to Beijing with my grandson fell into the snow. ”

"It's snowing so hard? But during this time, except for feeling a little colder, there was no snow in Kyoto. "Gu Qing spends most of his time in the house, there are earth dragons and charcoal basins in the house, but he really doesn't feel hot or cold.

"Grandma, that's because the capital is in the south." Li Jun's face was serious, "When my grandson first arrived in Tongzhou from Jingnan, the snow was only a few feet deep, but when he arrived in Fenzhou, the snow in Fenzhou had reached four or five feet, and countless birds had frozen to death. Counting again, it took five days from the time the grandson encountered heavy snow to the time the grandson left Fenzhou. ”

"After Fenzhou, go a little further south, the snow is light, and when I reach the capital, I don't see snow. However, the weather here is not warmer than it was in Jinju, and it should be snowing as well. Since I entered the Gyeonggi territory, it has been cloudy for so many days, and the clouds over the capital are all black and red......"

Li Jun saw that Gu Qing listened carefully, and he spoke more fluently.

"When my grandson was in his hometown, he also experienced this situation, and when the surrounding places stopped snowing and the weather gradually warmed up, suddenly hail. Hailstorms are more damaging than snowstorms, killing and injuring livestock and pedestrians. ”

"The grandson thought that in previous years, when he was at home, in order to have a good year with peace of mind, even if something happened, he would report the good news and not the bad news, and everything would be hidden until the end of the New Year. The grandson is afraid that this official is the same, if the good news is not reported at the end of the year, the official hides the snow disaster, I am afraid that I don't know how many people will freeze to death......"

When Li Jun said this, Gu Qing had already stood up.

Second, my grandson was worried that hail would fall around the capital, and if the roof was not reinforced, I was afraid that it would hurt people's lives. My grandson reacted slowly, I didn't expect so much yesterday, but in the morning, when the little maid waited for me to dress, I realized that the cold I felt in the capital and Fenzhou was almost the same, and I immediately connected. When my grandson thought of this natural disaster, he couldn't help but be frightened, and he wanted to visit his uncle, so he didn't know how to eat just now......"

"Then what are you still doing in a daze!" Gu Qing hurriedly said, "This is the big deal, please eat or something, wait until you and your uncle discuss the business!" ”

As far as the urine of these officials in ancient times, it is really possible to do something that they don't know!

In two days, it will be twenty-three, and who will touch the mold at this time! If it weren't for Li Jun's letter from Beijing, she wouldn't have known that there was such a heavy snow outside Ludao!

"This matter is just a momentary speculation on the part of Sun Er, after all, Sun Er is not an official of Qin Tianjian, so he can only think about the bad with experience. Besides, now the world is peaceful, the people have food and clothing, no more than before, and so many people will not freeze to death during the snow disaster. Grandma, don't be in a hurry......" Li Jun saw that his grandmother was anxious, and his heart was a little uneasy. The old man loves to worry, if he is in a hurry, it is his unfilial piety. "Grandson, let's go find my uncle!"

"I think your guess looks like that. Go quickly, there is no best, if there is, if you delay for a while, it will be a lot of lives! ”

Li Jun was also panicked when Gu Qing said it, and as soon as Gu Qing said it, he hurriedly pulled his legs and left.

Li Jun rushed to the East Garden in a hurry to ask to see his uncle.

is still outside the three doors, and there is already a door with fast legs to report to the main room.

Li Mao rarely rested, got up late, and was just preparing to eat at this time. Fang's had already eaten, but her husband was eating, and she was also by her side, and she went a little further.

Menzi came to report, and it was Li Jun who asked to see him, and Li Mao and his wife stopped their movements in surprise.

"So early, Li Jun came to say hello?" Li Mao smiled and said, "It's a child who understands the rules." ”

Fang put down the bowl and sighed. "It's just too early, sir, you haven't finished your meal yet."

"It's okay, I'll go to the front. If he hasn't eaten yet, you let the servant put the food in front. ”

Li Jun is already nineteen years old, and when he comes to the backyard to meet his uncle, he will inevitably meet many female dependents, so it is more appropriate for him to go to the front to meet him.

"I think it's rare for you to see your relatives come to the door, so I am jealous." Fang scolded with a smile, waited for her husband to change out of the clothes he wore in the house, put on his regular clothes, and instructed the kitchen to make another porridge and side dishes, ready to be put in front at any time.

At this time, Li Jun was already waiting very anxiously in the small hall, and when he saw Li Mao coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward.

Li Mao smiled: "It's all my own family, it's not necessary to say hello every day, I go to the morning on weekdays, and you can't touch me during the day, so change it to night in the future." ”

"Uncle, my nephew is not here to say hello!" As soon as Li Jun's words came out, Li Mao was stunned.

Li Jun patted his mouth and said incoherently: "No, no, no, my nephew didn't come to ask for peace." No, my nephew is here to say goodbye, but there are other things......"

Li Mao is also an official now, and seeing that Li Jun is in a hurry, he frowned and interrupted Li Jun's words.

"Say it slowly, what please be safe or not, there are other things?" He sat down on the main seat of the hall, and motioned for his nephew to sit down on the chair below.

"You calm down, think about what you're going to say, and then talk to me when you're ready. Frizzy and frizzy, what it looks like! ”

Li Mao's reprimand was really effective, and Li Jun immediately calmed down.

He wasn't in such a hurry before, everything was just his guess, yes or no, he couldn't tell whether it was right or not, and he was going to report to Li Maoyu and wait for his uncle to deal with it.

It's just that in Zhiyun Courtyard, Gu Qing urged him to go like a chicken, and he showed great concern, and he became impatient with him. At this time, Li Mao was calm, Li Jun was infected by him, and gradually settled down.

He pondered for a while, typed out the draft in his belly, and then opened his mouth.

"Uncle, it snowed heavily in Tongzhou and Fenzhou, and the snow was four or five feet deep, but my nephew didn't see a disaster relief official along the way, and I was really uneasy. In addition, the inside and outside of the capital are cloudy, black and red, and my nephew is afraid of hailstorms......"

"What? Four or five feet of snow? Li Mao stood up in a gaffe, "Didn't you say two feet?" ”

Li Jun heard Li Mao's words, and immediately understood that he had guessed correctly.

Someone has concealed the snow disaster.
