Chapter 106: Door-to-door visits

Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Qingwan asked Zilan to take care of all the outfits, and Gu Qingzhao only brought one Wen Ze with him, so he went to the Li Mansion, they had to follow Prime Minister Li to meet Mr. Nangong, although they had already done the apprenticeship yesterday, but in the end there had to be a more formal form.

Li Xiang met his granddaughter, although he didn't have too much enthusiasm, and he was more stubborn and unsmiling, but the concern for Gu Qingwan in his eyes was obvious.

"Zhao'er, when you see Mr. Nangong later, don't be nervous, just show your usual appearance, let's not learn from that little family, but fall behind!" Li Xiang greeted.

Old Mrs. Li is diametrically opposed, last time the old lady saw Gu Qingzhao at first sight, she liked it very much, she saw that Gu Qingzhao probably thought of Gu Qingwan's lost brother Gu Qingxuan, she transferred all her love for her grandson to Gu Qingzhao, and recognized Gu Qingzhao as her grandson. Li Jingxuan is Gu Qingzhao's mother-in-law, Gu Qingzhao is nominally Li Jingxuan's son, and Li Xiang and Mrs. Li recognize him as their grandson.

"Old man, I don't care what method you use, today I must let Zhao'er succeed in apprenticeship, otherwise I will come back and be finished with you!" Old Madam Li glared at Li Xiang, although what she said was a little arrogant, it was not difficult to hear that she and Old Xiang Ye had a very strong relationship, which is why she spoke so casually.

Prime Minister Li Cheng was a little embarrassed by what she said, after all, in front of her two grandsons, the old woman really didn't give any face, but after a little embarrassment, he got used to it, and his wife had this temper all his life.

Seeing this, Gu Qingwan smiled secretly, and then whispered a few words to Mrs. Li, and said that Mrs. Li was overjoyed, nodded her head, and then said, "You girl, you actually thought of such a tricky method, haha...... The old man of Nangong probably has no problem with you! ”

Seeing that the grandparents and grandchildren were happy, Li Xiang asked curiously: "What are you saying so happy?" ”

"It has nothing to do with you, you just take Zhao'er to apprentice, don't worry about the rest!" Old Madam Li's tone was not good, but there was an uncontrollable smile on her face, and the old man could only smile when he looked at it.

Because there was not much time, Li Xiang urged him to leave, and Gu Qingwan had no choice but to sue the old lady, saying that she would come back later to see her old man. Where would Mrs. Li delay the children's business, so she only told them to hurry up, and when she got into the carriage, Gu Qingwan saw the two big burdens that Mrs. Li had prepared for Gu Qingzhao, and when she opened them, they were all necessities of life, although they were not valuable, but they had been prepared with great effort.

Gu Qingwan was very moved, because Mrs. Li didn't know that she had successfully asked Mr. Nangong to accept Zhao'er, and her grandmother had already prepared her outfit early, so it must have been soft and hard to force her grandfather to agree to help Zhao'er succeed in apprenticeship.

This kind of heart, even her grandmother doesn't have it, although Mrs. Gu is also happy, but in the end, she hurriedly prepared after getting the letter, which can be seen in comparison.

Mr. Nangong's mansion is on the outskirts of the city, although it is called "Caolu", but the houses are scattered, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is excellent. It is worthy of being the residence of Mr. Nangong of the Great Confucian. The so-called mountain is not high, there is a fairy name, the water is not deep and there is a dragon is spiritual, the bottom is like this.

In the grass house, a man in white was sitting there drinking tea leisurely, but his eyes always drifted to the outside of the grass house inadvertently. Ji Mu sat opposite him, his round face was full of doubts, his big eyes were rolling, and he looked at his prince brother with puzzlement.

"I said Brother Prince, you have already left the school, and I don't see you here on weekdays, why don't you leave early in the morning today?" Ji Mu finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked his doubts.

Ji Sheng raised his sword eyebrows lightly, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Ji Mu dangerously, and said, "What?" Even the affairs of the main palace, it's your turn to worry? ”

Seeing that his royal brother was unhappy, Ji Mu stuck out his tongue in amusement, and after all, he still didn't dare to anger His Royal Highness the Prince, who was harmless on the surface, but was actually the most terrible.

Ji Mu didn't like silence the most, and after resting for less than a quarter of an hour, he couldn't help but speak, and almost danced excitedly: "Brother Prince, haha...... I'm no longer the youngest apprentice, and the little junior brother will come later, and someone will finally take over the burden of serving the old man, and I don't have to listen to the old man's broken thoughts anymore! ”

Ji Sheng glanced at Ji Mu contemptuously, and said coldly: "I have never served him, I can only blame you for not being productive!" ”

Ji Mu puffed out his cheeks and looked at Ji Sheng aggrievedly, the prince's brother is too faceless, so he knows how to ridicule him, how to say that he is also his cousin, could it be that he Ji Mu picked it up?

Without waiting for Ji Mu to open his mouth to protest, he heard the sound of the carriage in front of him, Ji Mu immediately changed his face, stood up overjoyed, and his round body ran out with great agility, and shouted excitedly: "Great, the little junior brother is here, and that beautiful sister, hahaha...... The beautiful sister is so good, even the old man was tricked by her! ”

Ji Mu only cared about his excitement, and didn't notice at all that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had always been as steady as Mount Tai behind him, also got up, with a smile of unknown meaning on his face.

Li Xiang was in the same car as Gu Qingzhao, and Gu Qingwan followed behind in the car alone, and entered the first gatehouse of the "grass house", Li Xiang ordered someone to stop and walked down.

Ji Mu was the first to arrive, first said hello to Li Xiang, then excitedly took Gu Qingzhao's hand and said, "Little junior brother, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Gu Qingzhao was still a little restrained, after all, the child in front of him who looked like flesh was a prince, and his status was not ordinary. He just smiled and was about to give Ji Mu a salute, but he saw Ji Mu's big eyes looking behind him.

"Little junior brother, where is your sister?" Ji Mu seemed to be looking forward to seeing Gu Qingwan again.

Gu Qingzhao didn't care, just pointed at the carriage behind, and it happened that Gu Qingwan also jumped out of the car with Zilan's support, and Ji Mu immediately left Gu Qingzhao to meet him.

"Little sister......" Ji Mu's enthusiasm made Gu Qingwan slightly uncomfortable.

Gu Qingwan still bowed slightly to him very respectfully, not showing rudeness, but also making no mistakes, and said, "Little prince, be polite!" ”

Ji Mu was obviously not satisfied with Gu Qingwan's attitude, why did she look so rusty, and pouted, "Sister Gu, didn't I tell you?" Just call me Ah Mu, where are there so many vulgar manners outside, if I am seen by Mr., I will think I am putting on a shelf! ”

Gu Qingwan smiled and said good-naturedly: "Yes, I wrote it down!" ”

As he was talking, Mr. Nangong also walked out of it, and when he saw his old friend, Mr. Nangong was not as happy as he imagined, but gave him a blank look, and blamed: "Old man Li, your good granddaughter is so powerful, even I dare to calculate, did you instigate it?" ”

When Li Xiang heard this, he was slightly puzzled, but he didn't point it out, only said, "What's the matter?" Let you accept an apprentice, you will know how to put up a shelf all day long, and you really think that you are the first Confucian in ancient and modern times, and you have set up music with me, right? ”

Mr. Nangong glanced at him angrily: "I'm old, and the bones that have been tossed by these little cubs all day long are going to be scattered, and if I take a few more apprentices, I'm afraid I will have to live a few years less!" ”

Knowing that what he said was a joke, Li Xiang didn't take it seriously, he only pulled Gu Qingzhao to his side and said, "Don't give Mr. Nangong a salute yet!" ”

Gu Qingzhao smiled at Mr. Nangong, saluted respectfully and shouted, "Master, the apprentice is polite!" ”

Now it's Li Xiang's turn to be dumbfounded, why does Gu Qingzhao seem to be so ignorant, and he called the master first before he had visited the master?

But Mr. Nangong seemed to accept it calmly, stroked his beard, nodded and said, "Excuse me, can you bring the big white goose who is the teacher?" ”

As she was talking, she saw Gu Qingwan's girl behind her carrying two bamboo baskets, and several beautiful geese were squeaking and quacking, looking very energetic.

Mr. Nangong immediately smiled, nodded incessantly, patted Gu Qingzhao's little head very friendly, and said, "Okay, good, what a good apprentice who is filial, you follow Ah Mu down to settle down first, and I will chat with Li Xiang for a while!" ”

Li Xiang looked at this scene, and thought of the whispers of Gu Qingwan and his wife in the morning, and seemed to understand something, and the eyes of his granddaughter were a little special.

Gu Qingwan also respectfully confessed to the two old men, so she took the salute on the carriage and helped Gu Qingzhao clean up.

Mr. Nangong saw Li Xiang's eyes chasing after his granddaughter, and said in a somewhat appreciative tone: "I don't know how you are so blessed as an old guy, there is nothing special about children, but all of your grandchildren have inherited your shrewdness!" ”

Li Xiang glanced at Mr. Nangong proudly when he heard this, and said, "Are you jealous?" Who made you an old bachelor, don't think about it in this life! ”

"Say you're fat and you're still panting? I have no children and grandchildren, you look at my apprentices, all of them are dragons and phoenixes, which of them dare not be filial to the old man? Hum! Mr. Nangong said unconvinced.

Li Xiang laughed loudly, patted his old friend on the shoulder and said, "Go, I haven't played chess with you old boy for a long time, and I will definitely have a big battle when I take this opportunity!" ”

The two walked away hand in hand, leaving hearty laughter all the way.

Gu Qingwan had just walked to the inner courtyard, but saw a familiar figure sitting in the pavilion, dressed in a white brocade suit, holding a cup of steaming tea, with a smile on her face, which looked really pleasing to the eye.

Gu Qingwan recognized it at a glance that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had a relationship with her last time-Ji Sheng.

The man probably saw them too, and shouted from afar: "Ah Mu, why did you bring guests here and not introduce them?" ”

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had spoken, she couldn't be too rude, she only asked Zilan and Ziyu to help pack up her things, and Gu Qingzhao was dragged by Ji Mu to meet Ji Sheng together.

"Brother Prince, this is my little junior brother, Gu Qingzhao, haha......" Ji Mu seemed to be very proud.
