Chapter 10: Gossip in the East and the West

Ink Flower Temple.

Before dawn, Gu Mengping got up early and put on his monk's robe.

Xin'er, who was on night duty in the outhouse, saw Gu Mengping come out in a hazy way, and he was frightened.

"The Fifth Young Master got up so early?" She straightened her crumpled clothes, slightly uneasy. Yesterday, she discussed with Qiao'er who would be on duty at night, Qiao'er had to compete for the night at first, but when she went out to the teahouse to fetch water, she accidentally fell and had to let Xin'er be on duty for the first night.

Xin'er was a little nervous when she first came to a new place, and she didn't know what kind of person Gu Mengping was, so she didn't dare to sleep all night when she was worried, and she didn't take a nap on the couch until it was almost dawn.

Gu Mengping pointed out the window and chuckled: "I have long been used to getting up early in the temple, you just have to sleep on yours." I see that the corners of your eyes are slightly red, and it is obvious that you have not slept well. ”

Although he said this, how could Xin'er dare to sleep again? went out to get washing water, and wanted to serve Gu Mengping to rinse.

"I'll do it myself." Gu Mengping hurriedly stopped.

He was not an egalitarian, and he had no intention of restoring the maid's freedom, but he was not used to being half-kneeled in front of him with a pancreatic holding a copper basin.

Xin'er is not a man of many words, and when he saw that he was bent on stopping him, he was just blessed and stood beside him respectfully.

After cleaning the noodles, Gu Mengping slowly walked out of the house, first expanded his chest outside, and then ran three or four times along the courtyard, and then practiced the five bird plays.

Before the tiger drama was finished, he was pulled aside by Gu Xingyun, who came in a hurry.

"Meng Ping, do you know? Yesterday there was a big incident in Dongfu. "Gu Xingyun has a bear's back on his back, half a head taller than Gu Mengping. He didn't deliberately lower his voice, and Xin'er and Qiao'er, who were packing up things in the courtyard, could hear it clearly.

Gu Mengping first broke his hand away from under his arm, and then pointed to the white of the fish belly in the east, and then smiled: "There is a big matter, and I will talk about it after I finish practicing the Five Birds Opera." ”

What does the matter of Dongfu have to do with him, a concubine? Although it was Gu Weiyu, the uncle of Dongfu, who personally went up the mountain to pick him up, Gu Weisheng didn't even look at him.

Why should he bother with things he shouldn't be worried about.

was so angry that Gu Xingyun stomped his feet again and again.

"Why are you still here?" Gu Mengping slowly put on a clean monk's robe, threw the clothes he had changed in the morning into the basin of water and was ready to rub it, seeing that Gu Xingyun still hadn't left, he asked him with a smile.

Gu Xingyun was angry, bluffed and said, "You still know that I am here?" I stood for a long time and didn't see you pay attention to me......"

Seeing him like this, Gu Mengping's face unconsciously showed a little softness, and he said gently: "You also know that I have to practice the Five Fowl Opera every morning, and I am not allowed to stop practicing until I finish practicing, so why be angry with me about this?" It's you, standing still and not going to class, in case the old patriarch knows, you won't be able to get it. ”

When Gu Xingyun heard the word class, he suddenly forgot the original intention of coming to Gu Mengping, and raised his head proudly, "You don't know this, right?" The two masters of our clan studies did not go to class, and there was a commotion in the family studies today. ”

Hearing him say this, Gu Mengping raised his head curiously.

Gu Xingyun became even more proud, first ordered Xin'er and Qiao'er to serve him tea, and then waited for Gu Mengping to beg him. But when he drank two cups of tea, Gu Mengping didn't speak.

Gu Xingyun's heart felt as if he had been scratched by hundreds of cats.

Gu Mengping was slowly eating tea, his eyebrows drooping, like the master of Fenglin Temple.

Gu Xingyun couldn't help but get angry, puffed out his cheeks, looked at Gu Mengping angrily, and added a little childlike anger to his face, "How old are you?" Dead all day long like an old monk of Fenglin Temple? Boring! ”

Listening to his gossip about Master Kong, Gu Mengping was displeased.

Gu Xingyun hurriedly changed the topic and talked about things in ethnology, "Do you know? Tao Fuzi was beaten by the Fan family boy who was attached to the family study. Uncle Fu and Uncle Yongqi were extremely angry when they found out, and the two of them went together to find the old patriarch and demanded that the murderer be expelled from the Gu clan. The students were also furious, shouting to avenge Tao Fuzi, and now they have made an appointment to find the bad luck of the Fan family's boy. ”

The uncle and uncle Yongqi he said are Gu Lifu from the East Mansion and Gu Weiyong from the West Mansion, and the two of them are teachers in the clan study together with Gu Weitai in the outer rooms. In the ethnology, two other old masters were invited, one of whom was surnamed Cheng Ming, translating the word Zeyou; The other surname is Tao Mingran, the word is Qingcheng, and they are all from a person's background.

Although Gu Mengping has lived in Fenglin Temple for a long time, he also has a slight understanding of the Gu clan's studies. Master Mingkong once told him in detail about the character and ability of the masters in the family science, and he admired Tao Fuzi a lot. I was a little surprised to hear that he was beaten, in this era when the power of the teacher is as great as the sky, how can any student dare to beat the teacher?

But seeing Gu Xingyun's smug face, Gu Mengping couldn't help but glance at him, "Then why are you still here?" ”

Gu Xingyun suddenly stammered, hesitated for a long time, and then puffed up his chest and said: "I am a gentleman, a gentleman has always been a man who does not use his mouth, if he wants to find someone to crusade against me, he will definitely not let me!" But is this a fight? That's what the reckless bulls do, and I don't care about it. ”

Gu Mengping couldn't help laughing.

Gu Shaohua, who had just come here, laughed, "Meng Ping, don't listen to this bastard's nonsense, obviously he was reprimanded by my grandfather for fighting a few days ago, saying that if he was found fighting again, he would let him go to the ancestral hall." ”

Gu Xingyun's face turned red with anger when his old confidence was revealed, and he chased Gu Shaohua for half the yard, and the two of them laughed and played for a while before returning to Gu Mengping's side.

"Shaohua." Gu Mengping said hello.

Gu Shaohua talked about the matter of ethnology.

Gu Mengping only then knew the ins and outs, it turned out that Tao Fuzi had always taught strictly, and there were countless students in the clan who had been knocked by him with a ring ruler, among which Fan Chun was the heaviest. Fan Chun has a bad personality, he doesn't like to study, and he was only forced to come to school by his father and brother. These days, Tao Fuzi knocked him on fire with a ring ruler, and he had thoughts of revenge. Last night, Tao Fuzi took advantage of the night road to go home to see his grandson, and was covered with rags......

Gu Mengping was dumbfounded when he heard this.

"Before I came, I heard that my grandfather was losing his temper, saying that he wanted to take the post to the Fan family to invite someone, and to ask the head of the Fan family to come forward. It is said that among the people who beat Tao Fuzi this time, there are several sons of the Fan family. The corners of Gu Shaohua's mouth escaped with mockery.

Gu Mengping said secretly: "Life is a life, and the grass and trees are spring. The black hair doesn't know how to study early, and in the blink of an eye, it's a pulsatilla. Fan Chun can do the act of being the head of the master, but I am afraid that there will not be much success in the future! With Xiao Ming and big Ming, it can be seen that there are many children of the Fan family. ”

Over there, Gu Shaohua talked about what happened in Dongfu yesterday, "...... If you want me to say, most of you Xifu are fools. How could you have such a mind? If nothing else, just about identity, the people of Xifu may be worthy of the granddaughter of the governor of Jiliao? No jokes......"

Hearing him say that the East Mansion was involved in the West Mansion, Gu Mengping was really surprised this time.

Seeing his expression, Gu Shaohua knew that he didn't know anything, so he explained: "Yesterday, the daughter-in-law of the governor of Jiliao led her granddaughter to Dongfu to visit Uncle Xie Dongfu and talked about the old years. Somehow, your grandmother Gong Liu from Xifu took a fancy to the granddaughter of the Xiao family, and actually wanted to marry Bo Chao, but she was slapped in the face on the spot......"

Governor of Jiliao, daughter-in-law, granddaughter......

That's a lot of information!

For some reason, Gu Mengping suddenly remembered the bright eyes he saw on the way back to Fenglin Temple that day.
