"Women are those who please themselves", what a beautiful sentence, but Zhang Huaijin obviously used too much force.

Originally, the aesthetics of this era were a bit eccentric, and the makeup of women in the Tang Dynasty was based on white and lined with red fat. If you really don't understand, you might as well refer to the makeup of modern Japanese geisha, and you can vaguely find the popular fashion of the Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, Zhang Huaijin's face is like a monkey being caught, and then mischievously scribbling on the monkey's buttocks with red and white paint, after painting, the mischievous person threw away the paintbrush and left, but the monkey was complacent and thought that he had been reborn as a human.

Gu Qing can't appreciate her beauty, whether she is a straight man or not.

Gu Qing's frightened appearance made Zhang Huaijin very hurt, and he stood in the front hall and pursed his mouth aggrievedly.

"Brother Gu, am I not beautiful like this?" Zhang Huaijin asked with a hurt look in his eyes.

Gu Qing touched his chin and decided to discuss with her an academic issue that spanned thousands of years.

"Do you think you're beautiful like this?" Gu Qing asked.

Zhang Huaijin straightened his towering bun and said: "It took me two hours to make the makeup, they said that this is the best lady makeup in the Tang Dynasty, and the envoys and ladies of the Fanbang Embassy of the Honglu Temple are vying to follow suit." ”

Gu Qing asked with a soul: "You look like a ghost...... Well, what exactly is so beautiful about this beautiful look? Can you elaborate on that? For example, your eyebrows, why do you draw them like this, what kind of aesthetic meaning does it represent, for example, why do you paint two clumps of red on your cheeks as if you have been slapped countless times, such as your lips, which are white on both sides, and a little scarlet in the middle, just like a vampire sucking blood with a straw, pretending to be elegant, where is its beauty reflected? ”

Gu Qing finally added: "The most important thing is ...... Are you scared when you look in the mirror yourself? ”

Zhang Huaijin hung his head, his small shoulders fell instantly, and he said discouragedly: "I know, you don't like the way I look now......"

Gu Qing saw her lost appearance, no matter how dull he was, he knew that he might hurt her, so his mind was spinning quickly, and he kept searching for jokes about how to coax women in his previous life.

After searching for a long time, Gu Qing gave up in despair, in his previous life, jokes about how to coax women had always been regarded by him as useless knowledge, and he had always automatically filtered out, and he never remembered anything.

If there are no women, who will you coax?

But Gu Qing couldn't bear to see Zhang Huaijin sad, so he decided to play himself.

"Actually...... It's not that ugly, I think it's still a bit ...... Uh, the beauty of the hunt, yes, the hunt. Gu Qing covered his heart when he said this, and his conscience seemed to ache faintly, but he could bear it.

The little girl is really easy to coax, and she is happy in a word, although she doesn't really understand the meaning of "hunting", but Gu Qing said the word "beauty", presumably she should praise her.

"Really? Isn't it really ugly? Zhang Huaijin put that thick and colorful face in front of Gu Qing, and said happily: "Then you take a closer look at my face, after looking at it for a long time, you will definitely find that it is actually very beautiful, right?" ”

Gu Qing suddenly even stopped breathing, and at this moment he especially wanted to pump himself, why do you want to say something with a bad conscience, the little girl's occasional setbacks are actually more beneficial to hone her life.

"Look at it, people's makeup is really good-looking, but you didn't look at ......it carefully," Zhang Huaijin said unrelentingly.

Gu Qing held her breath and looked at her seriously, and the next moment she immediately looked away, looked up at Fang Liang and said, "Okay, I gave up." I'm sorry, I really can't appreciate it, you go and wash your face, otherwise we'll break up. ”

Half an hour later, Zhang Huaijin sat in front of Gu Qing with an unhappy face, his plain face was white and lovely, and his unhappy appearance was also pleasing to the eye, there was a kind of delicate and innocent pure beauty, and her face was like a piece of carefully carved mutton fat jade, which made people can't help but want to bury her in her mouth.

"How welcoming do I look now?" Zhang Huaijin glared at him angrily.

Gu Qing nodded approvingly: "It's good-looking!" It's much more pleasing to the eye, although it's a bit girly, but the flaws are not hidden, and he is still a good brother. ”

Zhang Huaijin snorted and muttered in a low voice: "Elm pimple!" ”

There was still the last chicken leg left on the plate on the table, and Gu Qing picked up the chicken leg and bit it hard before Zhang Huaijin could react.

Although he is already very full, it does not affect his full food to hold on, in short, the food should not be ruined, let alone flow into the fields of outsiders.

Zhang Huaijin didn't pay attention, and the only remaining chicken leg was gone, so he looked at Gu Qing in shock, and then began to reflect on himself.

is already a Hou Ye, he is so ungraceful, what do you like about him?

Gu Qing has always been in a very peaceful mood when eating meat, as long as his mouth is in a chewing state, his heartbeat rhythm is consistent with the rhythm of chewing, the food changes from living to dead, dead to piece by piece, cooked and fried in various ways, and finally enters the human mouth, the whole process is a philosophy of life, which describes the profound truth that from life to death, all things return to their origins. So, eating should be a sacred thing.

Zhang Huaijin blushed and watched Gu Qing eat chicken legs, I don't know if it was in the eyes of a lover, she always felt that Gu Qing's way of eating was so different.

Gu Qing ate very slowly, chewing slowly, a mouthful of food had to be chewed more than a dozen times before swallowing, and there was a short pause after swallowing, as if he was quietly waiting for the swallowed food to slide from his esophagus to his stomach, and then began to slowly eat the second bite.

The whole process is not smooth, but for some reason it gives people a faint sadness, because every bite he takes seems to be the last bite of his life, and he cherishes it very much.

Zhang Huaijin was inexplicably a little distressed, and suddenly said: "You have lived in that mountain village in Shuzhou for more than ten years, are you often hungry?" ”

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Sort of, you are the lady of a wealthy family, and you can't imagine how hard the life of a farmer is." ”

Zhang Huaijin's eyes were red, and for some reason his heart became more and more sad, and he said quietly: "If I knew you since I was a child, maybe you could eat a few more full meals, I could go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables for you, or I could make traps, make cages to help you catch pheasants and hares, I will also learn embroidery, learn to weave baskets, take them to the market to exchange money, and buy meat for you to eat......"

A wisp of warmth flowed in Gu Qing's heart, and his heart seemed to be wrapped in a warm spring water, and those pores that had been scarred were quietly nourished and healed by this hot spring.

Facing the sun, facing away from the darkness, love or hate for the world, only in the thought of turning around or not turning around.

It's a very hypocritical thing to reconcile with the world, because the world doesn't care if you reconcile or not. But fortunately, Gu Qing chose to turn around in the dark and face the sun.

Zhang Huaijin is the angel under the sun, and the person who dragged him out of the darkness was not her, but she told him the temperature of the sun.

The straight man of steel who was wrapped around his fingers bit the tip of his tongue fiercely, Gu Qing struggled out of her gentleness, and secretly warned himself not to be a scumbag, Zhang Huaiyu was still waiting for him to marry her in Shiqiao Village.

So Gu Qing forcibly changed the topic.

"Sneaked out again today? Aren't you afraid that your second ancestor will scold you? ”

Zhang Huaijin sniffed, calmed down, and snorted: "I came out of the mansion with a swagger today, because the second ancestor asked me to come to you." ”

"What's the matter with me?"

Zhang Huaijin suddenly got angry, poked Gu Qing's chest fiercely and said, "You said it yourself, the story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms hasn't been told for a long time, have you forgotten about it?" Not only am I waiting to listen, but the second ancestor is also waiting, you have to be busy with a lot of things these days, and the second ancestor is inconvenient to disturb you, can I finally say it today? ”

Zhang Huaijin's index finger was tipped, and his chest hurt a little.

Gu Qing dodged a few times and said, "Don't poke, female donor, female donor, don't poke, poke me if you poke me again......"

Zhang Huaijin quickly retracted her hand, pretending to look at the scenery as if nothing had happened, but the red roots of her ears betrayed her deeply.

Gu Qing glanced at her and said disdainfully: "Tsk, the mother is girly!" ”

The chicken leg had already been gnawed, Gu Qing threw the leg bone on the table, took out a towel from his arms and wiped his greasy hands, his expression was full of helplessness.

Someone actually urged the change, and they all chased it to the house, it's really hehe, if you give the money, you urge the change, and you are so reasonable.

"Three Kingdoms...... In fact, there is no story in the back, I went to turn over Chen Shou's version of "Three Kingdoms", in short, in the end, Sima's unified the Three Kingdoms, the world will be together for a long time, the perfect finale, all the places are collected, good! ”

After Gu Qing finished speaking, he gave himself a warm applause.

Zhang Huaijin sneered, pushed him hard, and said angrily: "Don't make trouble, I'll tell the second ancestor Weng when I go back, see if he can clean you up, hurry up and finish the story, I also want to know." ”

Gu Qing had no choice but to say helplessly: "Where did I say last time?" ”

Zhang Huaijin said without thinking: "Speaking of 'Lu Feng Xianyuan Gate Shooting Halberd', the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms, so powerful!" ”

"Oh, yes, the gate shoots halberds, so ah, men are aggressive animals, they shoot around at every turn, it's very dangerous, don't provoke you in the future, well, after getting married, there is no way, whether you want to be a live target or not......"

Zhang Huaijin opened a pair of pure and innocent eyes, looking at him blankly, not understanding the meaning of his words at all.

Gu Qing smacked her lips and opened her mouth in front of the innocent little girl, her heart was full of guilt, so let's be serious.

So Gu Qing told the story of this chapter in a serious manner, and finally ended with "Let's listen to the next decomposition".

Zhang Huaijin worked hard to write down the story told by Gu Qing word for word, shaking his arm unsatisfied, begging him to say another chapter, break it for so long, after all, he has to compensate the reader, and talk about a few more chapters to make up for it.

Gu Qing sneered, do you have to make up for it? As long as the author is thick-skinned enough, what compensation and what compensation are all floating clouds.

begged for a long time to no avail, and Zhang Huaijin had no choice but to give up.

Carefully putting away the recorded story and putting it in his arms, Zhang Huaijin suddenly said: "By the way, I wrote a letter to Sister A, and I sent someone out of Chang'an yesterday." ”

Gu Qing was stunned: "What did you write?" ”

"I lied to her and said that you were seriously ill, so let her go back to Chang'an quickly." Zhang Huaijin didn't dare to look at Gu Qing, lowered his head apologetically, and said in a low voice: "People know it's wrong, they shouldn't joke about it, but if they don't use this excuse, she won't go back to Chang'an at all, I know she doesn't like Chang'an, you are the only reason for her to be willing to go back to Chang'an." ”

Gu Qing was stunned, what kind of operation is this? Why is there a faint sense of pathos in my heart, just like the big man who was fed medicine by Jin Lian back then......

The stomach was a little supportive, and he couldn't help but pour it on the futon, Gu Qing said weakly: "The patient needs to drink more hot water, go and bring me hot water." ”

Zhang Huaijin looked guilty, and obediently got up and brought him hot water.

Gu Qing took a sip of it, sorted out his emotions, and said, "Let me follow my train of thought,...... You lied to Zhang Huaiyu that I was seriously ill, so the question is, why did you lie to her to go back to Chang'an? ”

Zhang Huaijin stared at his eyes bravely and said, "I said, I want to defeat her!" After defeating her, there will be no her in your heart from now on, only me. ”

"Are you really going to hit her? Have you been hiding at home lately and practicing peerless martial arts? Fell off a cliff? Where did you get the cheats? Gu Qinghu looked at her suspiciously.

"Oh, that's not what 'defeat' means!" Zhang Huaijin was anxious and angry, and his slender legs were so angry that he kicked wildly.

"How the hell are you going to defeat her, tell me clearly."

Zhang Huaijin was stunned, and even his expression froze.

was bent on defeating Sister A, but she didn't think about how to defeat Sister A, she just felt that she was going to defeat her anyway, no matter what form it was,...... In addition to the competition, the competition is not good, the competition has no chance of winning at all, and Sister A may beat her rival to death openly.

"I don't care! Anyway, I'm going to defeat her, trick her back to Chang'an first, and I'm going to declare war on her in person! Zhang Huaijin clenched his small fists and raised them high, his eyes were resolute, and his expression was super fierce.

Gu Qing sighed: "Cannibalism, I'm really a lump of red-faced troubles with nowhere to put it......"

Zhang Huaijin snorted and said, "The letter has been sent, and in about a month, Sister Ah will rush to Chang'an." ”

Gu Qing took a sip of hot water slowly and said slowly: "There is a question I don't quite understand, can you help me solve my doubts?" ”

"You say."

"That's the case, first of all, I declare, what I like is your sister, you are too young, whether you like it or love, it's like a joke, and secondly, from the perspective of a pure bystander, I don't understand why you want to trick your sister back to Chang'an, there is no rival by your side, isn't it fragrant to be alone with the person you like day and night? Isn't it fragrant to get the moon first near the water? After your sister comes back, the person you like will be at least half taken away by her, so I want to ask you about your mental journey in making this decision, is it because you were possessed by intellectual retardation at some point? ”

After speaking, Gu Qing's eyes were full of curiosity and desire to Zhang Huaijin.

Zhang Huaijin was like a roe deer who was scared silly by a loud roar, and muttered to himself in a daze: "Yes, why did I call her back......"

Gu Qing asked calmly, "Yes, why?" ”

The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, Zhang Huaijin's expression changed from the hesitation just now to full of war, and then gradually sluggish, and then stupid, remorseful, hateful, crying, sad and indignant......

The expressions are wonderful and vivid, and the gradual progression of various emotions is very layered.

In the end, Zhang Huaijin's small mouth was deflated, tears poured down, he couldn't hold back anymore, he cried loudly, twisted his body vigorously, kicked his legs wildly, and howled in the sky: "I did another stupid thing!" Ahh ”

After speaking, Zhang Huaijin wiped a handful of tears, suddenly stood up and ran out.

Gu Qing was stunned and said loudly: "Where are you going?" ”

Zhang Huaijin didn't reply, and threw down a sentence with a crying voice: "I will send an eight-hundred-mile fast horse to chase the messenger back!" ”

Gu Qing sat cross-legged on the futon and sighed wistfully: "How can you get my heart ...... so stupid?"

…………

Gu Qing does not refuse to be alone, but he is still more accustomed to teamwork.

The habits of thinking developed by the profession in the previous life, many things are difficult to accomplish by individuals, teamwork can perform their duties with half the effort, many old-fashioned songs are also instilling the importance of teamwork to people, what "unity is strength", what "a chopstick is gently broken, a bundle of chopsticks firmly hugged into a group", in the era of information explosion, some chicken soup is actually very delicious, and has correctness and feasibility.

In this era, Gu Qing is also consciously building his own team.

The team is expensive but not too expensive, at first he and the two shopkeepers were actually a small team, but now there are more Han Jie and a group of guards.

There must be Li Longji's eyeliner in the guard, Gu Qing is not in a hurry to eliminate it, it is more useful to keep it.

There is no need to rush to identify the eyeliner, Gu Qing just treats them as loyal, the art of controlling people is very complicated, no matter whether the ultimate purpose in the heart is profit or use, every word and deed done on the bright side must be sincere, the benefits that should be given must be sufficient, and the details of life that should be cared about must be leaky, don't casually lead the shelf, and at the same time establish the majesty that a leader should have.

In this regard, Gu Qing has a lot of experience, he knows what his subordinates need, and he also knows very well what his subordinates don't need.

Gu Qing needs talents, and he also needs loyal followers.

It's not the kind of person who is a messenger, but a person who is willing to block his body in front of him without hesitation when there is danger, Gu Qing needs such a person, and at the same time, he will try to avoid such a dangerous situation.

Unconsciously, Gu Qing became familiar with Han Jie, and not only that, but most of the hundred guards also remembered their names and faces.

Chang'an City is a place of peace and stability in the national capital, there are not so many days of swords and swords, Gu Qing lives an ordinary ordinary life, Han Jie and his guards follow him every day, in fact, it is similar to the ordinary white-collar workers who clocked in at work in the previous life, there is no need to deliberately get closer, in his spare time, he casually dragged someone over to chat a few words, his tone was easy-going, he reached out to help when he encountered difficulties, and he was bored and pulled a few people to get together for a drink.

A lazy but approachable Hou Ye character who occasionally has a bit of a poisonous mouth was built in this way, and this time the character is very solid, and it will not collapse easily.

The guards gradually changed from restraint to relaxation, and they no longer performed respectfully in front of Gu Qing, but in fact, they were rusty, and a few bold people even dared to joke with Gu Qing now.

Gu Qing is very pleased with such a change, he is slowly changing the atmosphere of this group, moisturizing things silently and truly bringing people's hearts into the palm of his hand.
