Chapter 122: Wax Moon
When the wax moon comes, the fragrance of wax plum blossoms can be smelled everywhere in the four elder brothers' mansions.
When Gu Qinghuan got up early in the morning, he heard the sound of Ah Shuang clearing the snow outside.
"Frost?"
Gu Qinghuan pushed open the door and saw that the snow on the road at the door had been cleaned by Ah Shuang. The road has been exposed, and it is clear that you will not slip if you walk on it.
"Sister Qinghuan is up." Ah Shuang looked at the ground that had been almost swept, put down the broom in his hand, and trotted towards Gu Qinghuan.
By the way, I rubbed my hands.
It's a little colder, this weather.
"You got up so early..."Gu Qinghuan looked at Ah Shuang's bright eyes and said, "Have you slept well?" ”
"Sleep well."
Ah Shuang said seriously: "Father-in-law Su has ordered, this snow should be cleared in time." Otherwise, if you walk on top of it after forming ice cubes, you will fall. ”
"It's okay to wake up early."
Initial website: m.
"Thank you." Gu Qinghuan touched Ah Shuang's head and said, "I'm going to go out to buy some things later." Is there anything you'd like to buy? I'll buy it back for you? ”
As soon as Ah Shuang heard that Gu Qinghuan was able to leave the house, she was immediately interested.
"I..."Ah Shuang thought about it seriously, and then said, "I want to eat baked sweet potatoes..."
Sweet roasted sweet potatoes go well with winter.
"Okay." Gu Qinghuan immediately agreed. Then he went out of the house after finishing his morning business.
A few days ago, Gu Qinghuan sent a letter back to the house, saying that when he went out to buy things today, he could just catch up with Gu's lunch. By the way, I was able to go back to the house to eat.
It's been a long, long time since she's had lunch with her family.
In front of the Gu Mansion, the chief steward Ah Fu had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Gu Qinghuan coming back, he immediately greeted him.
"The girl is back." Ah Fu took a few large and small paper bags from Gu Qinghuan's hand, and said, "Come back, come back, and bring so many things back." ”
"It's all a snack that you might use on New Year's Day."
Gu Qinghuan hurriedly asked, "I heard that Ama has been transferred to an official position, did he go to do a pen post?" ”
In the early years, Gu Qinghuan's Ama was Honglu Siqing, mainly responsible for some matters in diplomacy. Because he made a mistake, he was dismissed from his official position and did some miscellaneous things in the Ministry of Rites.
The role of Honglu Temple was originally similar to that of some in the Ministry of Rites. It's just that there is no way out of doing odd jobs after all.
Previously, Gu Qinghuan heard from her mother, Zhang, that Ama had been praised by the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. Now it seems that the real lack has been transferred to the pen post style.
Although the pen post style is just an official of the six products, it is actually very important to engage in the work of collecting and sorting, registering and archiving.
Moreover... One of the advantages of the pen post style is that it is easy to be promoted. Therefore, Gu Qinghuan felt that his Ama might be getting better in the future.
"Yes, the master is doing a pen post in the Ministry of Rites."
Ah Fu mentioned this stubble, and he was in a very good mood. Of course, he is very happy to see that the owner he has been staying for decades is getting better and better.
"Hmm." Gu Qinghuan also nodded in agreement, and quickly entered the house.
Inside the house, the Zhang family also waited with Gu Qingxu. The two of them were at the bottom of the verandah, and when they saw Gu Qinghuan coming back, they also hurriedly greeted them.
"My sister is back."
"Qinghuan is back."
The two of them pulled Wanwan from left to right, and entered the dining room together.
Gu Qingxu was originally going to take classes in the academy. It's just that since Gu Qinghuan is back, he naturally wants to take a little leave at noon and come back to see his sister.
"What are you going to eat for lunch today?"
As soon as Gu Qinghuan finished asking, he saw a back figure in the dining room.
The back looked broad, and the braids hung neatly at the back. After hearing Gu Qinghuan's voice, he turned his head to look at Gu Qinghuan.
This is, Gu Qinghuan's Amma.
"Amma?" Gu Qinghuan was stunned, he never thought that he would see Ama here.
She, Amma, has always been a conscientious person. In the past, when Gu Qinghuan came back, it was when she Ama was going to be on an errand, so the father and daughter had never seen each other.
"When you're back, let's sit down and eat."
Ama Gu Zhaohui said with a gentle smile. Although he didn't say too much, Gu Qinghuan could already see from his eyes that as an Amma, he cared about his daughter.
This lunch, unexpectedly, ate hot pot.
The kind of pot that uses the copper pot to shabu mutton, but the things that are cooked are meat, vegetables, and so on.
"Sister, it's been popular to eat these in the capital recently."
Gu Qingxu sandwiched a piece of mutton and put it in Gu Qinghuan's bowl, and said, "Winter is coming, it's just right to eat something hot." When you go back later, your body will be warm. ”
"Isn't it?" Zhang also said: "The fourth elder brother's mansion is no better than other places, you have to be careful in everything. It's rare to come back, so eat more. ”
"Hmm." Gu Qinghuan agreed vigorously and ate a lot.
In fact... When she was in the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion, she was still doing well.
After lunch, Gu Qingxu wanted to go back to the academy, and Gu Zhaohui also had to return to the Ministry of Rites to continue to be busy with his own affairs. After the father and son went out, they were about to part ways.
When he was at the door, Gu Zhaohui stopped Gu Qinghuan.
"I know all those things about foreign languages."
Gu Zhaohui didn't have any expression on his face, but he took out a book from his sleeve and said, "This is something about foreign languages." You might be able to use it, so take it back and see. ”
"At Amma's age, there's not much she can do for this family. Now that the situation is a little better, you will have as much money as you can in the future, so try to keep as much as you can for yourself! ”
Over the years, licking his face and relying on his daughter to live... He was actually quite apologetic.
"I know."
Gu Qinghuan silently accepted the book and admonished: "The fourth elder brother told me that Ama is a talented person. As long as you work hard in office and abide by your duties, you will still have a great chance of being promoted in the future. ”
Gu Zhaohui nodded, noncommittal about this, but still said: "Promotion or something, it's actually nothing." Amma, just want to contribute to the court. ”
This is also his lifelong wish.
"Well, Amma take care."
After Gu Qinghuan finished speaking to Gu Zhaohui, he said to Gu Qingxu again: "Brother, take care of yourself." ”
"Sister, you too." Gu Qingxu was very reluctant to Gu Qinghuan, bit her lip, and then waved her hand at Gu Qinghuan and watched her go away.
After Gu Qinghuan left, he helped Ah Shuang buy roasted sweet potatoes, and naturally went back to the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, Yinzhen came back early today.
Gu Qinghuan saw Xiao Shunzi in the courtyard and heard that Yinzhen was already reading in the study. Busy gave the roasted sweet potato to Xiao Shunzi and asked him to pass it on to Ah Shuang.
Alone, I went to Yinzhen.
