The ancient family had the custom of hiring musicians at the time of the festival, and at this moment, from the vestibule, dozens of musicians carrying various musical instruments of gold, stone, silk and bamboo have stood at the entrance of the square. The musician's director handed over the instruments in his hand to his subordinates, walked over first, and reported to Gu Xun how many people were coming and where they needed to play. And Gu Jian saw the opportunity, and he didn't want to entangle with Lu Buwan anymore, so he was about to leave with Gu Zhu in his hand.

"Ouch!" At this time, the maidservant girl who walked out of the back kitchen with the dishes took a step back suddenly, collided with the ancient key, and the porcelain bowl full of vegetables in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.

She's been extremely cautious, but it's always backfired.

The foreman in the kitchen must have told him to be very careful. This porcelain bowl is fired in Liexun's imperial cellar, and it is one of the dowries of the family's wife Lu Buwan, and it must not be lost.

The maidservant seemed to have lost her soul, looked at the ancient key in front of her in a daze, fell to her knees with a thud, and did not shy away from grabbing the hot soup and sharp crumbs with her hands, praying that she would be punished less.

"Little, are you crazy!?" A shrill scolding voice came, and the ancient key followed the prestige, only to see the angry ancient proverb walking from not far away.

Gu Xun's eyes followed the scolding and looked for him, and the musician next to him retreated to the vestibule first, and prepared the necessary work with his subordinates.

The martial artist also stopped what he was doing, and followed the eyes of the crowd to look at the suddenly angry ancient proverb and the strange comer. They had all heard the sound of violent porcelain breaking on the ground before, but it was only when their eyebrows touched Gu Xun and Lu Buwan's bodies that they quickly stopped this outrageous behavior and turned to see the initiator of the incident.

Even the descendants of the ancient clan know how tough the head of the family and the wife of the head of the family are. Their parents and grandparents often warn them that the children's play must not be involved in the family affair.

What's more, the elders of the clan strictly forbid the children or the young people to have any in-depth topics about all matters related to the head of the family and his wife.

"Hey...... Why do I think that person is so familiar? A child who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old whispered to his companion next to him.

"Shhhh Have you forgotten the rules of the clan? The companion kicked the child, "You don't want to live......"

"I just think that person is familiar...... the boy whispered again.

"Of course you're familiar, you two are such fools!" Another older kid came over and one of them gave them a brainstorm, "Look, you two." That guy is the eldest son of the head of the family, and the first evil boy in Liesun City who has not returned for four years, Gu Key. ”

More than a dozen children around him let out exclamations at the same time, and they all heard words of different degrees in the previous conversation between the three children. It's just that when the eldest kid said that this person was the ancient key, they all crossed their ears and really heard clearly.

"Shut up, bastards!" A low, powerful voice shook the noise that had grown louder and louder among the children, and the old Gu Nie pinched his carry-on wine bag, his face flushed. Under his eyebrows, he stared at the old proverb that walked quickly.

The other three clan elders had already left, leaving only Gu Nie to maintain this sudden change. At this time, someone suddenly approached Gu Nie, a young man who had already been crowned.

"Uncle." The young man stood by Gu Nie's side.

"If you have something to say, say it quickly." Gu Nie glanced at the young man.

"Uncle, I think...... This old proverb seems to be a bit out of line. The young man watched the ancient proverb get closer and closer to the ancient key, "This person who separates the family is simply presumptuous. ”

"Huh...... is just a martial artist in the army, and he has no dignity, but it is very in line with his identity. Gu Nie sneered, "Gu Chen, it's no wonder that you said that he was presumptuous, even if you want me to say, I can't bear this breath." The rules in the clan are strict, and no one dares to touch that prohibition easily, but the ancient proverb provokes the rules set by the entire Gu family for no reason, and dares to insult the young family master in front of so many people. It is no less than a capital offense. ”

Gu Chen was stunned, "Then how dare he ......?"

"Boy Chen, why do you think he treats your cousin so arrogantly?" Gu Nie asked in a low voice.

Gu Chen thought...... The ancient proverb is to suppress the ancient key that has not returned for four years, in order to achieve the purpose of buying people's hearts and improving one's reputation. ”

"He is a martial artist in the army, how can he improve his status in the Gu family?" Gu Nie slapped Gu Chen's head, "If you want to improve your status by suppressing the young family master, stupid!" ”

"And why?"

Gu Chen still wanted to ask, but Gu Nie had already gone away. The old man slowly left the noisy square with hundreds of people carrying a wine bag, probably going to a restaurant in the city.

"Uncle said...... What does that mean exactly? Gu Chen looked in the direction where the old man left, but in the shadow of the shadow, the old man's figure could no longer be seen clearly.

……

Gu Jian bowed down to help the maid pick up the debris, but found that the little maid was too nervous, her hands had been pierced by the debris, and blood was flowing down between her fingers.

"You're new here?" Gu Key glanced at the maidservant, "Get up, I'll pick it up." ”

"Gong ...... Childe, it's hot! Only then did the maid find the ancient key that was squatting down together, and she was so surprised that she couldn't even speak, "I'...... It's just a subordinate, because he was just sold to the ancient mansion by his father...... Not quite yet. ”

"The next person is also a human being......" Gu Jian pressed the handmaid's hand and stopped her from picking up the broken porcelain slag again, "This is my fault, and the appearance of this porcelain bowl, I don't think it's a bargain, it doesn't seem to be able to pay it off with your monthly offering, right?" ”

Some family members had already seen that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly picked up the broom and rushed over, but was stopped halfway. The man's powerful slap almost made him spin in a circle.

The figure with the knife on his waist is an ancient proverb. He snatched the broom and strode towards the ancient key, his eyes the size of a brass bell staring at him, "Little cub, is this really the place where you splash at will?" ”

"Uncle, this is my negligence, let this little maid let her go for the time being." Gu Key's head replied without raising his head.

"You!" As the old proverb goes, he wants to hit him when he raises his hand, but he can't hold it down. Those chilling cold eyes finally made him dare not act rashly.

"Uncle, you still haven't recovered from your old injuries, so you can't afford to lose such a temper." Gu Jian straightened his robe and stood up, his eyes looking at him casually, as if he was provocative.

The gaze of the ancient proverb froze, he had never told anyone about the fact that the old wound had not recovered, not to mention that this kid who had just arrived, could he have already been seen through by his strength alone, this was absolutely impossible......

He originally wanted to give this kid a dismount and let him retreat. But now in this situation, I am showing weakness.

"!" The old proverb didn't hit one place, and kicked the servant girl in the body. He was determined to stay out of it.

The little maid endured the pain, trembling and getting up, holding a handful of broken porcelain pieces in her hand, and bright red blood slowly flowed down from her fingers.

"Get out of the house and do chores." The cold tone made the little maid's head press even lower, and she quickly ran away, and the tears rolling in her eyes finally held back.

Gu Xun dismissed several family members around him and a group of onlookers. His hands were clenched tightly, and a hint of anger emerged, as if he was about to explode at any moment. This reckless man who divided the family is simply a dog guts, and he dares to speak disrespectfully to his son, this disrespectful thing......

At this time, a hand gently covered his face, followed by a strong fragrance of roses and those charming narrow eyes.

"Official, are you tired?"

Gu Xun only glanced at her and hurriedly avoided his gaze, and there was a faint sweat behind him. There is too much hidden in those eyes that seem to be able to breathe people's hearts. The rich fragrance of seasonal roses is a metaphor for bewitchment, and matching this woman is tantamount to being highly poisonous.

"Madame is too careful."

Lu Buwan was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but wonder, "The official is out of sight with the concubine!" Between you and me, what can't be said? ”

"It's because of the key, right?" She covered her mouth gently, "The officials have been very fond of Jian'er since a long time ago, and even the concubine wants to hold some small grievances for Jie'er when she sees it!" ”

The hand on Gu Xun's arm gradually loosened, and she approached the ancient proverb not far away with her steps.

In the afterglow, Gu Yan saw Lu Buwan, who was slowly approaching, and turned around suddenly. His eyes stopped on the woman's slender figure and refused to move for a long time, until Lu Buwan was about to arrive in front of him, he suddenly reacted and hurriedly leaned over.

"Why bother a child? Besides, he is the young head of the family. ”

"This ...... The villain understands. The old proverb apologized with an ugly face, and he didn't dare to say more. Decisively turned around and walked to the side to direct the busy family, and dispersed a group of onlookers who were reluctant to leave.

Lu Buwan stretched out his hand to smooth Gu Key's coat, and a smile appeared on the corner of his slightly wrinkled mouth, "I've been tired of traveling for dozens of days, and I think I'm also thinking about my father very much, right?" ”

"Mother...... Also. Gu Key lowered his head, feeling that everything in front of him had changed. The old proverb of a martial artist who was born in a family is just a dog that separates the family, and he dares to yell at himself like this, there must be something strange about this.

Since there is a reckless guardian dog, there will be a master behind the scenes to support it. Who will this master be? He glanced up at the woman in front of him.

"Key'er's mouth is still so sweet!" Lu Buwan's eyes were curved like crescent moons, and she turned around and motioned to Gu Jie, who was standing behind Gu Xun, to come over, "Jie'er, come to my mother." ”

"Mother," Kosuke solemnly walked up to his biological mother and made a gesture.

"Did you catch up with your brother today?"

"Of course," Kosuke said with a smile on his face, "I really miss the time when I practiced swords with my brother in the square!" But I also want to thank my brother for marrying me with his wife. ”

"After all," his smile grew hideous, "was once my brother's concubine!" ”

Gu Key's face slowly became gloomy, and his right hand held the hilt of the knife, "What do you want?" ”

This was said to Lu Buwan, but this charming woman didn't hear it at all, just paced, like a bewitching black-spotted butterfly.

At this time, someone in the main hall door shouted loudly that the hour had come, and then he was reprimanded by the old man for not knowing the etiquette. However, the time has come, which means that the family feast is ready to begin, and no one will worry about the episode anymore.

Gu Xun silently looked at the tense situation of the three Gu Keys not far away, and didn't say anything. He pulled Gu Qi's hand, ignored his depressed expression, and walked towards the main hall.

"Uncle!" Gu Yu vigorously wanted to break away from him, like a rebellious deer, "Brother Key, he ......"

"I'm your father!" Gu Xun suddenly stopped, "It has always been." ”

The people around him knew that the head of the family had a strange temperament, so no one dared to go up and do anything flattering, but just stood on both sides, waiting for orders.

The people of the ancient family slowly entered the main hall, bypassed the head of the family, and sat in their seats first, and no one dared to discuss matters outside the hall, because they were not qualified. The few high-ranking elders of the clan only sat upright, and the gloomy color on their faces was exposed a little, to show the displeasure in their hearts.

"Yo, it's time," Lu Buwan paused and covered his face with his hands, "Key'er, I can't attend the family banquet for four years, I must appreciate my face today." ”

"You really don't say yes, do you?" Gu Key's tone was cold, his patience had run out, and the demons in the depths were about to roar out and rush out.

"You kid......" Lu Buwan leaned over to look at him, and saw that his expression was like a charming fox, "Mother...... But I like you very much, so what is there to hide from you? ”

"Shut up!" A sword slid out of its sheath, and the sound of striking iron was continuous. Gu Key's voice seemed to freeze, "You don't deserve it!" ”

Lu Buwan's voice was stuck in her throat and could not go out an inch, she stared at the blade that was only half an inch from her neck, as if she was stupid. She wanted to call for help, but she couldn't. She never imagined that the young man in front of her would do such an act.
