"But that Gu Shao doesn't deserve ...... at all"

"Shut up!" Tang Chengen interrupted Cheng's words in a cold voice, he frowned slightly and said in a low tone, "You come with me!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard, Cheng glanced at the person kneeling on the ground with resentment, and then followed Tang Chengen and left, and went directly to his study.

Tang Chengen shook off his left and right before he opened his mouth, "What do you have to do with their mother and daughter, can't you see what form it is now?" Young people are the objects that should be paid attention to, and it is useless to rely on our generation alone! ”

Cheng's phoenix eyes were full of anger, "So the lord thinks my mother's family is old, and he doesn't think that there is no young person in our family to be an official, right?" Cheng's strength came up again, "It's not easy for my family to have deep roots in the dynasty and want to support individuals to go up, on the other hand, that Gu Shao, even if he squeezes into the Ministry of Rites, no one is around to assist him, he is still a stepping stone!" ”

After speaking, Cheng Shi left the study angrily, planning to pack up his things and go back to his parents' house to complain.

The housekeeper told Tang Chengen about Cheng's actions after leaving, and he thought that his master would stop him somewhat, but he didn't expect Tang Chengen to be so stunned that he didn't move, "Just let her go!" ”

Cheng knocked and beat in the courtyard for a while, but no one came to persuade him, he was really angry, and he really asked someone to prepare a carriage and plan to go back to his mother's house.

The housekeeper hurriedly ran to stop Cheng's, "Madame, you must think that the old man is bullying you this time, if he has any suspicions, it will not be good!" What's more, you're called someone else, let's look at our prime minister's house. ”

"But the master called you?" Cheng's stomach was full of grievances, but when she saw the housekeeper's aggrieved expression, she knew that it was not Tang Chengen's meaning, and she rushed out even more unstoppably, "He has no conscience, and now he doesn't care if he has any disagreements with my family?" It's already the kindness of his Tang family to kill the donkey without unloading the mill, where do I go and what do I have to do with you, let go! ”

"No, ma'am," the butler stopped in front of the door, and he whispered in a hurry as his eyes turned and pretended to be anxious, "Isn't your departure an opportunity for others to take advantage of?" ”

Seeing that Cheng's complexion had changed, the housekeeper said even more mysteriously, "You are now sitting in the mansion and there are still people who dare to be arrogant to this point, if you go back to your mother's house, some people in this mansion may not know how to make waves, if you really take advantage of your absence to get any promises from the master, you will not have time to regret it," the housekeeper slowed down his voice, "So according to me, you are the eldest lady of this prime minister's house, how can there be any reason for you to go back to your mother's house, even if you leave, it should be those who do not enter the stream to get out." ”

The housekeeper's words were said to Cheng's heart, and she frowned and looked at him, "Do you think I still have a chance to squeeze that slut out of the Gu family?" ”

The housekeeper smiled lowly, "Why do you have to squeeze her out, if you leave the Gu family, maybe you can also have a Zhang family, how can there be a man who does not accept concubines in the world, the Gu family has been in the mansion for so many years, and you have also figured out her temperament, there is such a person who knows the roots by the side and the energy of the master is better than another young goblin, do you say." ”

Cheng thought about it and felt that what the housekeeper said was also reasonable, but he still couldn't swallow this breath, the housekeeper seemed to see her thoughts and immediately took the initiative to speak, "Madame doesn't have to have any grievances in her heart, you look at the current scenery of the Gu family, maybe what will it be like after entering the office, your family has a deep foundation, if you want to get angry, you can do it anywhere, why do you have to go-for-tat with the Gu family in this courtyard, but it will make the master unhappy." ”

"But the old man is already angry, even if I stop now......"

"If you can trust me, I'll listen to the old slave."

Cheng's eyes lit up, this butler who was Tang Chengen's personal butler had not been involved in the affairs of the backyard for many years, and it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort to get him to mention it today, "You say!" ”

"You might as well prepare a few things as gifts for the Gu family," Cheng was about to retort when the housekeeper stopped him, "Things don't have to be valuable, and they won't cost much to you, but in the eyes of the master, this is a sign of your general knowledge, how can the master not be moved." ”

Cheng thought for a moment and felt that his words were reasonable, and when he ordered someone to prepare a set of four treasures in the study, he personally went to Tang Chengen's study.

Within a few hours, Cheng's attitude of appearing in the study twice was a 180-degree turn, Tang Chengen felt relieved when he heard her insincere words, so he also went down the steps, "Still Mrs. is understanding, I will stay in your courtyard tonight." ”

Cheng was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, and it didn't take long for him to go back to prepare with a smile on his face.

As soon as she walked out of the study with her front feet, Tang Chengen cooled down with a smile behind her, and he looked at the housekeeper beside him, "You bother, none of these two ladies let me worry!" ”

The housekeeper leaned over and smiled slightly, "Master don't worry, if you are really annoyed, go to the mountain and invite the old woman back, there is no one up and down our house who is not afraid of the old woman, and I guarantee that you can be clean immediately." ”

Tang Chengen rubbed his forehead and waved his hand, "Wouldn't that become a night cry without weaning, and you still have to find the old lady for something." ”

The housekeeper laughed twice at the right time, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly eased a lot.

On the other side, someone in the courtyard of the Gu family sent the gifts prepared by Tang Chengen and the Cheng family, and the Gu family only glanced down and looked away and turned to the mirror opposite.

"Give me another cold veil, the bruises on this face will definitely be visible for a while."

Lan Tou hurriedly did as she was told, she handed over the handkerchief and fiddled with the bottles and cans on the table, "The slave remembers that this rouge has the most beautiful eyes, you can wait to wipe some and maybe you can cover it up." ”

Gu sighed, "I hope so, Shao'er has just been promoted, I can't let him be distracted by other things, you can help me find a cloak with a higher collar, let's wait until later, it's better than such a bright and dignified one," After saying this, Gu Shi turned around and instructed the grandmother who came from the Gu family to report the news, "You are not allowed to tell the family everything I have in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shao'er's temper I understand, this child has a high spirit since he was a child, if he knew that the master treated me like this, he would definitely hate him, If there is anything in the future, he will definitely not easily accept the help of the master, Shao'er just entered the court and made enemies because of me before he made friends, do you understand? ”

The old lady had no choice but to speak with tears in her eyes, "The old slave understands that when you were at home, you were also regarded as a young lady with a pearl in your palm, how did you get here......"

Gu Shi patted her on the shoulder, "I chose this path by myself, if I want to get what I don't have, I am destined to exchange it at a painful price, there is nothing to feel sorry for, everything is just voluntary." ”

Although Gu said this, his eyes still showed a loneliness that could not be hidden.

It wasn't until it was a little late that she dressed up and went out with a gift.

Before the carriage reached the door of Gu's house, he heard a series of firecrackers, Gu Shi was startled, and when he lifted the curtain, he saw Gu Shen standing at the door with his head held high triumphantly, as if he was the one who was rewarded and promoted, but Gu Shao was nowhere to be seen.

When the firecrackers and fireworks dissipated, Gu Shi got off the carriage, his face was full of joy and excitement, "Brother! ”

Gu Shen was also overjoyed when he saw her, but he didn't go to answer the Gu family, but first turned his head to the little official who came to congratulate him and pretended to speak, "You really don't look at this, my sister is the second lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she must represent the Xiangye Mansion when she comes, I'm afraid I want to entertain you well, if you snub you, don't be angry." ”

Those adults also had the eyesight, and immediately replied, "It turned out to be from Xiangye's Mansion, Brother Gu is really pompous!" Then I won't bother you when you wait, and you need to take care of us more when you are an official in the court in the future. ”

Gu Shen's vanity was greatly satisfied, "It's easy to say, Gu will naturally not forget a few adults!" ”

When Gu Shi approached the adults and left, she couldn't help but be curious when she looked at their backs, "What are you talking to them, you don't even care about me." ”

Gu Shen hurriedly smiled and took the things in her hand, "Some polite words, you come in quickly, it's very cold outside!" ”
