After talking to Gu Shaohua, Gu Mengping set his eyes on the other two teenagers.

The young man with a radiant spirit is Gu Zhongkang, the sister-in-law of the West Dafang, and the one who has a tiger's back is Gu Xingyun of the second room of the Great Sect. His grandfather Gu Liyi is the nephew of Gu Rongchang, the old lady of the Great Sect, because his parents died early, he grew up with Gu Weide since he was a child, and he and Gu Shaohua went in and out with him, and he was like a brother.

A few years ago, Gu Xingyun heard that there were two deer on the mountain, so he ran to catch the deer outside Fenglin Temple, but he disturbed the old monk to do his homework, Gu Mengping came out to stop it, and the two of them also fought. But he didn't expect Gu Mengping to be not as tall as him, but he beat him all over the ground to find teeth, and since then he has served Gu Mengping.

Gu Shaohua had followed Gu Rongchang, the old lady of the Great Sect, to Fenglin Temple several times, and he and Gu Mengping had known each other since childhood.

Gu Xingyun punched Gu Mengping's chest, and said with a smile: "Good boy, I haven't seen you so high for half a year?" As he spoke, he gestured with his hand above his head.

"He has to carry water and chop wood every morning, and he has to beat pigweed in the afternoon, you don't want to move all day long, how can you compare with Meng Ping?" Gu Shaohua sneered.

Gu Xingyun's eyes widened when he heard this, and he twisted his neck and said, "What are we spending money on those servants?" If I am done with all the work, what else do they want them to do? Do you want to be a grandfather? ”

Hearing these nonsense, Xin'er and Qiao'er burst out laughing.

Mother Qiu glared at them with a gloomy face, scaring the two of them into silence.

The three of them were talking lively, but they snubbed Gu Zhongkang, who was standing next to him.

Gu Zhongkang looked at Gu Mengping, who was hugged by Gu Xingyun and Gu Shaohua left and right, and was envious.

Gu Xingyun is a stunned young man, with a violent personality, and often does not leave people with any affection. If you provoke him, you won't care who you are, just scold him. When he was dating Gu Xingyun, he was also scolded by Gu Xingyun a few times. But now seeing that Gu Xingyun is dependent on Gu Mengping like a brother, he feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.

This elder brother, who has lived in the mountains for eleven years, doesn't look like he doesn't appear often, but his name can often be heard in the Gu family.

Gu Shaohua and Gu Xingyun would go to Gu Mengping every once in a while.

After coming back, he would talk a lot, and he was extremely dissatisfied with the Gu family's abandonment of Gu Mengping to the mountain.

"Are you not leaving when you come back this time?" Gu Xingyun looked at Gu Mengping happily.

Gu Mengping shook his head, whether he stayed or not was not in him but in his son Gu Weisheng. But looking at Gu Weisheng's appearance, he doesn't treat him like a son but like an enemy, but I'm afraid that he won't live long in the West Mansion.

However, seeing the expectant expression on Gu Xingyun's face, he nodded inexplicably.

Gu Xingyun is a brilliant character who gives a little sunshine, and when he saw that Gu Mengping could stay, his face immediately turned into a spring breeze, "I knew that our brothers would be able to get together sooner or later!" ”

Seeing that Gu Xingyun had been pulling Gu Mengping to talk and snubbed Gu Zhongkang, Gu Shaohua hurriedly pulled Gu Xingyun's sleeve, pointed at Gu Zhongkang and said, "Meng Ping, today Zhongkang knows how happy he is when he learns the news that you are back, and he can't sit down in the school." As soon as I got out of school, I rushed back, for fear that I wouldn't see you when I came back late......"

Hearing this, Gu Mengping's heart warmed, and he called at Gu Zhongkang, "Liulang." ”

Gu Zhongkang smiled and nodded again and again, "Fifth brother, I'm Zhongkang." ”

The Gu family's east and west mansions have not yet released five suits, and they are counted according to the same ranking. Gu Meng is parallel to five, Gu Zhongkang is six.

"Fifth brother, won't you leave in the future?" Gu Zhongkang's sword eyebrows were slanted, and his eyes were shining.

It is said that the boy Xiao's mother, but Gu Zhongkang turned over. Xie has bent eyebrows, a small cherry mouth, and a dignified appearance. He is a sword-eyed star-eyed, with a flying spirit, but he has a bit of the appearance of the Yang family, the ancestor of Xifu, when he was young.

Therefore, the ancestor Yang treated him like a treasure in his heart, and he wanted to look for him if he couldn't see him for a moment.

Seeing their brothers talking here, Mother Qiu's eyes flickered, looking at Gu Zhongkang for a while, and Gu Mengping for a while.

When she returned to her life, she turned her head vigorously to watch.

……

Their brothers were talking here, and Dongfu welcomed a distinguished guest, and the daughter-in-law of Xiao Jinxuan, the governor of Jiliao, Zhang, led her daughter Xiao Wanyi to visit.

It turned out that ten years ago, when the old nurse Lin returned to Hexing Town, Suiping County, she was with Gu Weiyu and his wife on the way. Gu Weiyu and Dong's were very respectful and extremely thoughtful. This matter was remembered by the Xiao family, just because the Xiao family's father and son have been in the north Rongbian, and there are few times when they return to Beijing, until their daughter-in-law Zhang gave birth to the eldest daughter and the eldest son, they led a pair of children back to Beijing. After the Xiao family's daughter-in-law Zhang returned to Beijing, she went to the Gu Mansion to thank her, but she only saw Gu Lidong, but Gu Weiyu went to the local government to become an official.

The Xiao family gave heavy gifts, and they always felt that they didn't want to thank them in person, so this time they just took the opportunity to come to Suiping to see Gu Weiyu and Dong.

The population of the Xiao family is simple, the wife of Xiao Jinxuan, the governor of Jiliao, died early, leaving only a pair of children, his daughter Xiao Ruijun was married to Changxing Hou Gao Kegang by the ancestor of the first emperor in the early years, and his son Xiao Chong was rarely famous, and he won the name of Wu Zhuangyuan at the age of sixteen.

Since the death of Mrs. Xiao, Xiao Jinxuan, the governor of Jiliao, did not remarry, and was taken care of by an old concubine, and his son Xiao Chongnian followed him to the north of Rongbian when he became an adult, and then was married by Emperor Jianwu to marry the daughter of Zhang Dali, the right of the Imperial Palace.

Xiao Jinxuan is extremely cautious in doing things, and he easily does not make remarks in the court, let alone form gangs. His sons and daughters were successively married by the royal family, which was a unique honor and favor in the Ming Dynasty, and it also showed the royal family's importance to Xiao Jinxuan.

The Ming Dynasty was different from the former Song Dynasty, the former Song Dynasty emphasized literature and light military force, while this dynasty was both civil and military, so the status of military generals was not lower than that of Wenchen. Xiao Jinxuan, as the governor of Yipin, was named in the cabinet again, and the entire Gu Mansion was shaken by the arrival of the Zhang family.

The ancestor of Xifu got the news and led his two granddaughters-in-law, Xiao Yang and Gong, to Dongfu in a hurry. The reason why Xie didn't come was because Gu Mengping wanted to come back and stay in Yuan Ruju to wait for him.

Because there are people in the east mansion who are officials in Beijing, the house is built very magnificently, the main courtyard is the upper room of the five entrances, at this time the servants and women stand quietly in the courtyard and under the eaves corridor, a solemn image.

"Originally, I was supposed to send a post in advance and then visit again today, but a letter suddenly came from the capital, saying that Xi Ge'er was seriously ill, and we had to hurry back to the capital." Zhang's voice was slightly hoarse, and his face was full of confusion.

Heckel is her son! According to the unwritten regulations of the imperial court for military generals, all military generals must leave their parents, wives and children in Beijing as hostages, and the eldest son is the most important thing and must stay in Beijing. This is also the reason why she was able to lead her daughter out of Beijing to celebrate Lin's birthday, but her son could only stay in Beijing.

After the news of Xi Ge'er's illness came, she didn't sleep well all night, and the corners of her mouth burst into fire bubbles.

Hearing her words, the old ancestor of Xifu, Yang Shi, who was sitting on the side seat, sighed, "This child is sick, and the most worrying thing is to be a mother!" Since my grandfather's generation, the Yang family and the Xiao family have been a friendship with a rice spoon in a pot. Don't say these nonsense, knowing that you are in a hurry, how can we blame you? ”

Xiao Yang and Gong, who were standing behind her, nodded hurriedly.

Zhang raised his eyes and looked at Yang, and then at Dongfu's eldest lady Dong, who was expressionless.

I have long heard that the east and west mansions of the Gu Mansion are separated, and they are not very close. It can be seen from Dong's expression that she doesn't seem to be very welcoming to the people of Xifu.

Although Zhang's husband Gu Chongnian is only a deputy general, because there has been no hostess in Xiao Mansion for decades, she has been the rightful wife of Xiao Mansion since she married in, and she only interacts with the relatives of the first and second rank officials in Beijing. I was able to come to Gu's Mansion as a guest this time, just because I was grateful for Gu Weiyu's escort to the nursing mother Lin. Gu Li, the eldest son of the Yang family, the ancestor of the West Mansion, was the right concubine of the Zhan Mansion in the East Palace, and the official residence was the fifth grade, in fact, to put it bluntly, he was doing miscellaneous work in the East Palace.

Because of his son's soft-spoken officials, the Yang family, the ancestor of Xifu, has not received an order from the imperial court to this day. And the so-called "friendship with a rice spoon stirred in a pot" in her mouth is just when Taizu Sun Zhen raised his army, and the people of the Yang family and the ancestor of Xiao Mansion followed Taizu at the same time.

Zhang lowered his eyelids slightly, feeling a little bored.

Seeing that the atmosphere became solemn for a while, Gong Shi hurriedly smiled and quipped, "Zhang Gongren, your girl is really cute, the more I look at it, the more I like it." Ancestor, take a look! Our Gu Mansion is full of people, but we can't find a character as beautiful as Miss Xiao......"

Gong is the youngest granddaughter-in-law of the Yang family, and is the third room in Xifu.

Gu Liyan of the third room is the concubine of the Yang family, and he died early, so Gu Weize is a little disliked by the Yang family. As Gu Weize's wife, Gong naturally did not get Yang's love.

But Gong is a high-spirited person, and the more Yang doesn't like her, the more she wants to show herself in front of Yang.

Hearing her words, the old ancestor Yang pursed his lips and was noncommittal.

The Dong family glanced at the Yang family, the ancestor of the Western Mansion, and his face was full of frost.

Complimenting people's beauty is used to praise the play, who is a serious girl who wins with beauty? The people of Xiao Mansion were the ones she couldn't come to in Beijing, and this time the Zhang family was finally able to come to the house as a guest. She was surprised but overjoyed, and was ready to be entertained.

Where did you think that the people of Xifu came unexpectedly?

She made up her mind that after the people of the Xiao Mansion left, she would take care of the slaves and maids in the Lower Mansion, and she should let them know who gave them money and who could control their life and death.

Don't take the monthly example of the East Mansion, but the heart is towards the West Mansion.

Zhang smiled, but the corners of his mouth sank slightly, "Even if I came to be a guest, I should have been closer and closer, but the news that came back from Beijing yesterday, I really don't worry about Brother Xi'er, it's better to say goodbye here, and return to Beijing sooner." As she spoke, she tried to stand up.

Dong's face was full of anxiety, and he hurriedly got up to dissuade him, "I should go back earlier, but I'm not in a hurry for this moment, why don't I have dinner at home and leave?" I heard that Chen Xuan, who is in the Xuanmiao Temple in Nanyang County, Henan Province, is very famous for his long-term treatment, if you don't dislike me for being a substitute, I have already sent a housekeeper to invite me when I heard this......" Dong bit his lip, and after hesitating for a while, he still said it, "Speaking of which, my mother's family and Chen Daochang are still in-laws, and a niece of my mother's family is married to a nephew of Chen Daochang's own family......"

Zhang's expression was slightly gloomy, and he gently fell back into the chair, and his words were sincere, "I also plan to invite Chen Daochang to accompany me all the way when I return to Beijing this time, but I know that Chen Daochang is extremely difficult to invite, but I don't dare to hold out any hope." It's hard for Dong Gongren to think so thoroughly......"

Dong took a long breath, Chen Xuan's personality was extremely eccentric, he always did it casually to help people treat diseases, and never cared whether the patient's condition was serious or not. If he votes for his eyes, he is willing to treat without collecting a penny, and if he does not cast his eyes, even if the other party gives him thousands of family wealth, he is unwilling to make a move. Back then, there was a wealthy businessman who didn't believe in this evil and wanted to ask Chen Xuan to treat his concubine, but the words were not speculative, Chen Xuan walked away with a long sleeve, claiming that he would not treat animals.

The wealthy merchant was furious and imprisoned Chen Xuan at home. Unexpectedly, the next day he came to Jinyiwei and arrested all his family in Jinyiwei's prison.

Since then, the world has known that Chen Daochang has the royal protection, and no one dares to find trouble with Chen Xuan.

She was able to invite Chen Xuan to take a long time, but it was just a gamble of luck.

As he was talking, a maid came in to report, "Big lady, Mrs. Xie Si from Xifu is here." ”
