Chapter 232: The Fault of the "Lonely Book".
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a middle-aged man dressed in his thirties, wearing a satin family dress, followed by a few small servants, carrying a box and waiting outside the door.
Gu Huaisheng went out to greet him and politely greeted the other party.
It turned out to be the Hong housekeeper of the Ministry of Works.
Baifu is closer to the Zhuangyuan's Mansion, just across the street, and when he heard that the Zhuangyuanlang moved today, he specially sent Steward Hong to chat and congratulate him.
After the greetings, Steward Hong ordered someone to open the box, and a crystal clear glass jade coral leaked.
This glazed jade coral is exquisitely carved, the color is transparent, and at a glance, you will know that it is worth a lot of money.
But Gu Huaisheng only glanced at it lightly, and then excused himself and said that it was useless, and this congratulatory gift was too expensive to accept.
Steward Hong was gracious and insisted on sending it, but after a stalemate, he finally couldn't resist the champion, so he smiled and let the little guy take it back.
took out an invitation from his bosom and said, "It's okay if you don't accept gifts, so you can always accept this post, right?" Lord Bai admired Zhuang Yuanlang's talent very much, especially the treatise written by the temple test that day, so he deliberately made a post, wanting to invite Zhuang Yuanlang to come over three days later. ”
Hehe, this Baifu was afraid that he knew that he would not accept this jade coral from the beginning, so he deliberately came out like this first, and then after he refused, he must be embarrassed, and it was much easier to send a post.
He stared at the post for a moment, and originally wanted to reject it directly, but after thinking about it, he took it again, "Thank you Lord Bai for your kindness, I will accept this post next, and it will definitely come as promised in three days." ”
His attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he did not have the mood of excitement and joy when he was appreciated by high-ranking officials.
The champion is always beautiful in high school, but there are a few who can really get through.
The first thing many champions do after high school is to visit around to build relationships and lay the foundation for their future careers.
It's just a pity that Gu Huaisheng doesn't need this kind of foundation, and the reason why he took the post was just to see what Bai Dru's purpose was.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Steward Hong complimented him a few words and took his leave.
Gu Huaisheng smiled and watched, and when the person disappeared around the corner, he playfully looked at the post in his hand, turned around and threw it to the personal servant Lin Lin sent from Qi Feng to collect it, and went back to continue to stare at those servants transporting books.
Gu Huaisheng went to the front door for a while, but the little guy still didn't stop, and continued to carry the box in the order he said before.
It's just that when it was carried to the eighth box, a family member somehow suddenly stumbled his foot, the burden tilted, and with a "bang", the bookcase tilted to the ground suddenly, shaking the mouth of the box wide, and more than a dozen books fell out.
Lin Su'e couldn't help but turn her head when she heard the sound, and saw that Huaisheng Baobao's bookbox was spread out and several books had dropped, so she hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The little guy who broke his feet immediately knelt down with a panicked face and explained: "The villain should be damned, just now he didn't break his foot and broke up the second master's bookcase, please punish the eldest lady." ”
Lin Su'e saw that this little guy was only fifteen or sixteen years old, his body was thin, and he was kneeling on the ground trembling, and couldn't help laughing, "Hey, didn't you just drop a few books, what do you say about not dying, bad luck, okay, since you have broken your foot, go to the side to rest, and change a small guy to carry it." ”
As she spoke, she beckoned another little guy to the top of the side, and then called another person to help the injured guy to look at his feet.
The severity of Wei is not serious, how much money will be spent later, and I will go to the housekeeper for reimbursement.
When the little guy saw that the eldest lady was amiable, his eyes were wet.
Due to his family's embarrassment, he had three younger brothers and sisters to support, so he spontaneously went to Renyazi, signed a deed of sale, and exchanged the silver for his father. 16 reading
It is said that the old lady of the big family is fierce and loves to punish people, so he must be tactful and careful, and he must not make mistakes.
I thought that I would end up with a board, or deduct a month's salary, but who knew that the eldest lady was so tolerant, not only did she not scold the cane, but also asked the doctor to show him a small foot.
At that moment, he was moved to tears, and kowtowed again and again to thank him.
It wasn't until he was helped up by the little guy who bought it together that he stopped his tears.
The other two servants began to pick up the books scattered on the ground, and a black box happened to fall at Lin Su'e's feet.
Curious, she bent down and picked up the box.
The box had been shaken open, leaking out the yellowed books inside.
Tang Yanning and Gu Huaien also subconsciously walked over when they heard the sound, but because she was far away, she was not as fast as Lin Su'e.
When the two of them walked to Lin Su'e about ten meters away, they saw a book in her hand, and the two couldn't help but widen their eyes at the same time.
Gu Huaien: Why is Huaisheng so unreliable, shouldn't this kind of lonely book be pressed at the bottom?
Tang Yanning: He didn't lose this book, he didn't lose it...... I also brought it over......
When the two of them were surprised at the same time, Lin Su'e had already taken the book out of the box and was about to open it......
Seeing that she was about to turn over, and the distance between the two was not enough to rush over and take it away at once, the hearts of the two couldn't help but raise their throats at the same time.
With a "bang", the book that Lin Su'e was about to open just now was violently recaptured by Gu Huaisheng, who appeared at some point, and carried it behind him.
Lin Su'e teased: "Huaisheng, I didn't expect you to have such a talented and beautiful book, just right, borrow it from your sister-in-law?" ”
She likes to read this kind of book when she has nothing to do on weekdays, and she has exchanged it with her younger siblings before.
Gu Huaisheng rushed over with an arrow step, and there was still a little bit of fright, and after waiting for a while, he said: "Sister-in-law misunderstood, this is not a book of words, but a book of poems, just looking at the name like a book of words." ”
"The content is profound and complex, and the sister-in-law can't understand it. Rao is me, and I need to read it many times to understand the deep meaning. ”
"Oh," Lin Su'e said in surprise: "Then this poetry collection is so elegant, it is actually called a full moon night?" ”
Aren't the names of most poetry collections boring?
Gu Huaisheng coughed lightly and continued to explain: "Yes, this book was improvised by two poets under the moonlit night in ancient times, and it was inspired by feelings, so it was named Hua Hao Yue Night, but the content is not as easy to understand as the name." ”
"Oh, that's it!"
At this time, Tang Yanning and Gu Huaien rushed over, and when they saw that the book was taken away by Huaisheng, they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Tang Yanning looked sideways at Gu Huaisheng and lied seriously, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
This man is really calm when he tells lies.
A picture of the spring palace can be said by him as if it were an obscure and esoteric ancient book.
