Zhang Jiuzhang is Zhang Jiuling's younger brother, so many years have passed, and the Zhang family still remembers the life-saving grace of Gu Qing's parents, which shows that the Zhang family are all kind-hearted people.

In his previous life, he had seen too many ungrateful people, but now that he saw someone taking the initiative to thank him for saving his life, Gu Qing didn't know how to react for a while.

"This, uh, this uncle ......" Gu Qing organized the words in his mind.

Zhang Jiuzhang smiled, and said: "Gu Qing, your parents and my Zhang family got along very well back then, and the two families can be described as world friends. Your parents called my brother Jiuling uncle, if you call me uncle, the seniority of the two families will be a bit chaotic. ”

Gu Qing sighed in disappointment, thinking that he could get past it.

After all, it is Zhang Huaiyu's uncle, if he calls him uncle, Gu Qing will be Zhang Huaiyu's elder in the future, and the next time they meet, he will press her head and force her to give him a junior salute, how cool it is.

Since he was corrected, Gu Qing had no choice but to see the salute again: "Eh, uncle? ”

Zhang Jiuzhang said with a smile: "Uncle can also, your parents called me second uncle back then, called my brother Zhang Jiugao third uncle, to be precise, you should call me second uncle." ”

Gu Qingqiang smiled, and there was a strong sense of immediacy when poor relatives in remote mountainous areas who couldn't be beaten by eight poles entered the city to recognize their relatives......

Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing temporarily became waiters, and served snacks and drinks tremblingly, and Zhang Jiuzhang smiled politely at the two.

This smile suddenly gave the two shopkeepers a bright sunshine, and the two shopkeepers quickly exchanged glances, and then found a remote corner in the room to sit down with peace of mind, looking like "I am Gu Qing's hardcore confidant", like the princess in charge of ordering songs and pouring wine in the box.

Zhang Jiuzhang was high enough, and he didn't look down on the businessman at all, but just pulled Gu Qing to sit beside him, stroked a handful of green beards and sighed: "It's been ten years in a flash, and the old man who fought fiercely that night still often dreams that Ling Zun Lingtang is a real hero, and the old man is still fascinated by Ling Zun Lingtang's demeanor, fortunately, he can see their descendants in his lifetime, and he can be regarded as a wish." ”

patted Gu Qing's shoulder intimately, Zhang Jiuzhang smiled: "The old man read Huaiyu's letter, and the letter said about your situation, you are eighteen years old this year?" ”

Gu Qing said respectfully: "Yes." ”

"Do you have a marriage?"

"Not married yet."

Zhang Jiuzhang sighed: "It must be because I lived a poor life in the past, and there are no parents in the family, so there is no way to get married." ”

Gu Qing smiled: "I'm still young, and I don't plan to get married for the time being." ”

Zhang Jiuzhang was stunned: "Eighteen years old...... Still young? ”

Gu Qing also looked back at him, looking innocent.

Isn't eighteen young? In my previous life, there were many people who got married in their thirties, and I was still a baby at the age of eighteen.

"If you want to get married, you are not young, don't delay, the Gu family incense is only you, if you have filial piety, you should get married as soon as possible and continue the incense." Zhang Jiuzhang said solemnly.

Without waiting for Gu Qing's reaction, Zhang Jiuzhang said slowly: "The old man originally thought that Zhang Huaiyu knew you, and he was an unmarried man and an unmarried woman, so it should be appropriate, but Zhang Huaiyu is a concubine, if my Zhang family marries the concubine to the life-saving benefactor, it will inevitably be disrespectful to the benefactor, the old man has no daughters under his knees, and the third brother Zhang Jiugao has a daughter who is born of a wife, but he has been spoiled since he was a child, and he is a little wild, blame me for the fact that the Zhang family has no way to teach the daughter, and I am ashamed!" If the nephew is interested, Zhang Jiugao's daughter can ......"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Qing hurriedly interrupted: "No, no, uncle, second uncle is welcome......"

Zhang Jiuzhang was stunned, the old man talked to you about marrying a serious wife, why did you translate for me, what is the special "politeness"?

Gu Qing changed his words again: "Second uncle, don't worry about it, the younger generation's family affairs can be taken care of by yourself." ”

Zhang Jiuzhang raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Got a sweetheart? Which family is the girl, say it, my Zhang family is in charge of you, your parents are gone, my Zhang family is your elder, and the old man will sit in the high hall on the day you get married. ”

Gu Qing pursed her lips.

I feel that this old man is not very good at chatting, and he chatted to death.

Seeing Gu Qing's embarrassed appearance, Zhang Jiuzhang sighed, but still changed the topic: "The old man heard that you were awarded an official for your meritorious service in the Pingnan Zhao Rebellion, and now you are serving in Zuowei?" ”

"Yes."

Zhang Jiuzhang said with a smile: "Don't rely on the grace of your parents, rely on your own ability to seal the official, the people of the Gu family are really extraordinary, first do a good job in Zuowei, you are still too young, the official is too big to be criticized, if there is a chance in two years, the old man will find an opportunity to do something for you, if there is something unpleasant in Zuowei, or if there is something incomprehensible about the officialdom, you can come to the old man, the old man lives in Daozheng Fang, and he will have time to go to the old man's house tomorrow to recognize the door." ”

Saying that, Zhang Jiuzhang paused, looked at the environment around the house, frowned, and said: "This place is not suitable for long-term residence, the old man still has a set of old houses in Pingkangfang that are uninhabited, the old ones are a little old, the old man will repair them, and the house will be given to you." ”

Gu Qing said with a smile: "Thank you for the second uncle's kindness, the younger generation has it, but after meeting Your Majesty today, I was favored by Your Majesty, and I have given a set of houses to the younger generation, and in a few days, there will be household officials to hand over to the younger generation." ”

Zhang Jiuzhang looked at him quite unexpectedly, and then saw Gu Qing was hanging the silver fish bag on his waist, and couldn't help but become more and more surprised, and then his face returned to normal, and he said slowly: "Look at what Huaiyu's letter said about you, the old man doesn't dare to underestimate you, who knows that he still underestimates you, good boy, you have no father or mother since you were a child, and your ability must have been forced out, and you have suffered all these years." ”

After some more gossip, Zhang Jiuzhang got up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he agreed with Gu Qing that he would send someone to invite Gu Qing to Zhang's Mansion tomorrow, and Gu Qing agreed with a smile.

After Zhang Jiuzhang left, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing rushed to Gu Qing with an arrow step, and said with bright eyes: "I never thought that Shaolangjun would have such connections in Chang'an, Shaolangjun, you are so deeply hidden!" ”

Gu Qing smiled bitterly, the connections were left by his parents who had never met, and he didn't know how many contacts his parents had left in Chang'an City, just now when he was chatting, I heard Zhang Jiuzhang say that his parents had a wide range of friends when they were in Chang'an, heroic, he likes to make friends, and heroic's hearty temperament is also easy to make friends, plus he has martial arts and is righteous, these qualities add up, I am afraid there will be no fewer friends.

The two shopkeepers were excitedly sketching out the blueprint for the future of rampant dominance in Chang'an City, when a rough voice came from outside.

"Do the children of the Gu family's brothers and sisters-in-law live here?"

Gu Qing and the two shopkeepers in the room were stunned for a moment, and before they came back to their senses, the rough voice simply let go of his throat and roared: "Is there someone surnamed Gu here?" ”

The two shopkeepers looked at Gu Qing in surprise, and Gu Qing smiled bitterly: "Maybe it's someone who came to seek revenge, maybe ......."

I wondered a little, do heroes only care about making friends? Are there no enemies?

Hao Donglai hurriedly threw down a sentence: "People seeking revenge will call Ling Zun Lingtang 'brother and sister-in-law of the Gu family'?" Shaolangjun, do you have any misunderstanding of the word enemy? ”

Saying that, Hao Donglai opened the door and shouted outside: "There is a surname Gu, there is!" ”

There was a sound of footsteps, and then Gu Qing saw a burly figure blocked the door, Hao Donglai was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and Gu Qing had no choice but to get up and step forward.

The man at the door was about forty years old, with a messy beard on his face, wearing a simple shirt, and his eyes were sharp, like a knife piercing people's hearts.

Gu Qing stepped forward and saluted: "If you want to find someone with the surname Gu, you will have the surname Gu in the next place, I don't know if it is the person you are looking for." ”

The person who came looked at him and said, "Yes, it's you, let's go, go drink with me in the front hall!" ”

As he spoke, he picked up Gu Qing and walked out.

Gu Qing was shocked: "Hey! Have you figured it out? What if you recognize the wrong person? ”

"You can't be wrong, seventeen or eighteen years old, with an unhappy look, who else but you."

Gu Qing: ???

This unhappy face actually became a label......

The inexplicable discomfort in my heart is swollen and fattening......

"Wait, wait! I haven't asked who Zunjia is and why you know me......" Gu Qing was dragged and staggered.

The man didn't reply: "Drink first and then talk about things, I just got off a business trip, and I haven't tasted a drop of wine all day, but I'm hungry!" ”

Gu Qing is no longer struggling, the strength of others is too great to beat him.

From the few words he met, Gu Qing didn't get much information, but he was sure of one thing, this guy who forcibly dragged people must be a military general in Chang'an City, and only a military general has such an unreasonable bastard temperament.

The front hall of the inn is a dining hall, a place for travelers to eat and drink. At this time, it was almost evening, and there were some diners sitting in the restaurant.

The man dragged Gu Qing to sit at an empty table, then suddenly slapped the table and said loudly: "The shopkeeper serves wine!" Good wine! Fast! ”

This kind of person who is not easy to provoke at first glance is often very advantageous, and the shopkeeper tremblingly personally brought two jars of wine.

The man patted off the mud seal, took a sip of the wine jar, and finally wiped his mouth vigorously, and let out a long sigh of relief and a satisfied smile.

"Fun! That's what life is called! ”

Gu Qing was finally able to ask questions at this time, arched his hand, and said politely: "I haven't asked ...... yet."

The man put down the wine jar and said, "My name is Li Guangbi, Zuo Lang General of Zuo Wei's Mansion, and I am your top official." ”

Gu Qing's eyes widened in surprise, and then he immediately got up and saluted: "Xiaguan Gu Qing, meet General Zuo Lang." ”

Li Guangbi, a famous general in the Tang Dynasty, is as famous as Guo Ziyi, and is called "Li Guo", and is the pillar of the Anshi Rebellion. In Gu Qing's limited historical knowledge reserve, this can be regarded as thunderous.

Li Guangbi waved his hand and said: "Sit down, I am looking for you today not because of you, but because of your parents, according to the etiquette, you should call me uncle, I and your father are close friends, and it is not a loss to call you uncle." ”

Gu Qing was slightly excited, his parents actually had such a deep friendship with the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, and he felt more and more that his parents were a pair of legends.

"Senior Gu Qing, meet Uncle Li." Gu Qing saluted again.

After sitting down, Gu Qing said curiously, "How did you and my parents meet?" ”

Li Guangbi took a sip of wine, revealing a look of fascination: "Back then, I was young and vigorous, relying on myself to be from a famous and wealthy family, and in Chang'an City, some, uh, some were rampant, just bumped into your father, your father didn't like it, and beat me all over the ground looking for teeth, tsk!" ”

Saying that, Li Guangbi unconsciously covered his cheeks, obviously awakening the painful memory of many years ago.
