Chapter Eighty-Eight: Sycamore Treats Each Other Old

The lights are dim.

Before Gu Jin could figure out Lu Guitang's thoughts, Prime Minister Wei was already about to leave.

When the two of them came out of the flower hall, it was already completely dark, and the days were shorter in late autumn, which was not as long as summer.

When He heard that Prime Minister Wei was leaving, he hurriedly rushed over to stay at the house for dinner, but Prime Minister Wei decisively refused.

So He put on a smile on his face and sent people out of the house with a group of maids and maids, and a sedan chair disappeared at the end of the long street, even if the twilight was gloomy, it couldn't hide the wealth of the sky.

He Shi turned around and wanted to ridicule Gu Jin, but when he turned around, he found that the person was gone, and he returned to the evening window pavilion.

With her housewife at the gate to see off the guests, this little maid ran back to rest first?

He wanted to rush to the Evening Window Pavilion to find trouble with Gu Jin, but was stopped by Mrs. Liu on the side.

"Madam, now His Royal Highness King Shu is still living in our mansion, and the news is not good."

If it is spread that the He family treats the concubine harshly, this reputation is indeed not good.

She puffed back to listen to Yuntang.

In the listening cloud hall, Gu Xiang was waiting, the night was cold in late autumn, and the girl was wearing a cherry skirt, as bright as a begonia.

She saw the He family who was coming quickly, and hurriedly greeted her: "Mother, I heard that the Prime Minister is here, come to find Gu Jin?" ”

He snorted, sat down on the chair angrily, and reached out to pour the herbal tea on the table to calm his anger.

Gu Xiang knew what was going on when he saw his mother's appearance, these days Gu Jin has been stealing her limelight every time, stammering with the Prime Minister's Mansion and stammering with King Xian!

He Shi didn't say anything, and the more Gu Xiang thought about it, the more angry he became.

The cold air came in through the window, shaking the candle flame on the table, and the candlelight spread on Gu Xiang's face.

So burn high candles to shine red makeup?

She had an idea out of the blue.

"Mother, you said that now that the northern Xinjiang is victorious, my father and brother are going home, so is my marriage with His Royal Highness King Xian also coming soon?"

He sneered: "Where is it so easy, the person you want to marry is King Xian, is that what we said we could marry if we wanted to marry." At this point, she suddenly changed her voice: "Alas? ”

Now that Northern Xinjiang has won a great victory, Gu Jiangyuan is the number one hero, if he says that he wants to marry his daughter, the saint will not agree, right?

The Holy One will definitely agree!

He's eyes lit up: "Good boy, my mother is finally looking forward to the day when you marry the Xianwang Mansion." ”

Gu Xiang smiled and went to pull He's hand, looking a little twisted: "Mother, you said that this Gu Jin is also my sister, I am younger than her, and now I am going to get married, should she also ......?"

Gu Xiang had thought about marrying the Xianwang Mansion thousands of times, but now what she was entangled with was Gu Jin's matter.

He "hissed", "You mean ......"

Gu Xiang nodded.

"Mother is her mother-in-law, can't she be the master of her marriage?"

This is married to her husband, once a woman marries out, she will be someone else's family, not to mention whether she can steal Gu Xiang's limelight at that time, I am afraid that I will have to face a trouble.

"But there is one thing, her business has to be before her father and brother come home."

Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Haomian both love Gu Jin very much, and they will not let the He family marry her in a hurry, unless they can rush back, when the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, Gu Jiangyuan will have no way at all.

He nodded, tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, and said slowly: "Then, I have to think about Jin'er's marriage." ”

……

Let's talk about His Royal Highness King Xian, who is rarely remembered by Miss Gu Er, Lu Guitang.

Everyone in the capital knows that His Royal Highness King Xian has not gone out for half a month since he returned to the palace last time, except for occasionally going to the palace for a walk.

I didn't go to visit King Shu, I didn't go to the poetry collection of Yahui, and the children of the family asked him to go out to play.

Fortunately, the merchant boy was in and out of the Xianwang Mansion almost every day, as usual, and everyone did not guess that the Xianwang was sick or something.

At dawn on this day, Shang Guyuan slipped into the Xianwang Mansion with a big burden and a small tipe.

In the study, Lu Guitang was sitting at the table and concentrating on carving and polishing something.

You read that right, sit at the table.

Shang Guyuan's heart trembled when he saw this scene, fortunately, he was used to seeing these pictures when he followed Lu Guitang all these years.

The man sitting at the table lazily spoke: "All found?" ”

Shang Guyuan threw the burden in his hand to the ground, and the things inside were scattered all over the ground.

"You want, poplar, yellow pear, rosewood, sandalwood...... It's all here. ”

He babbled on and on the names of a lot of precious wood, and the baggage was indeed filled with some precious wood.

After saying that, Lu Guitang, who was sitting at the table, jumped to the ground and frowned: "Why did you throw them on the ground?" ”

Shang Guyuan shrunk his neck, and when he was about to stretch out his hand, he saw that Lu Guitang had carefully picked up the wood and put it on the round table beside him.

Shang Guyuan looked at what Lu Guitang was holding in his other hand.

If it sounds good, it's a wooden hairpin, and if it doesn't sound good, it's a piece of wood.

In the past two days, Lu Guitang didn't know what kind of demon he had, so he had to make a hairpin and give it to Miss Gu Jiaer, but he couldn't carve a small hairpin with the knife, gun and stick he held in both hands.

Shang Guyuan went out to find wood for him every day, and his legs were about to break.

And the famous His Royal Highness King Xian, also in this study painstakingly developed the hairpin style for several days and nights, except for yesterday the queen summoned to the palace for a trip, not to mention going out of the house, even the meal was eaten in the study.

Shang Guyuan glanced at the semi-finished product in his hand and quipped: "You really want to give it to Miss Gu Er, I don't think people want to take care of you, and if you give it away, you will give it away in vain." ”

Lu Guitang was carefully picking wood, and he was not annoyed when he heard this, but smiled faintly: "What do you know, you have never been married." ”

……

Shang Guyuan pursed his lips, and scolded Lu Guitang a few times in his heart, what does it mean that he has never been married, could it be that Lu Guitang has ever been married?

"Last time, I was in a hurry, and she didn't agree when I offended her verbally, but this time I want to show my sincerity." The man carefully examined the wood piece by piece, and the morning light was visible in his eyes.

Shang Guyuan wanted to ruin his interest.

I thought about it for a while:

"The sycamore treats each other old, and the mandarin ducks die together." Seeing that this poem attracted Lu Guitang's attention, Shang Guyuan smiled with satisfaction, and said: "If you want to make hairpins for others, you shouldn't use these precious wood, you should use sycamore wood, the meaning of sycamore is better than the huanghuali in your hand." ”

"Hmm......" Lu Guitang suddenly felt a burst of joy on his face.

A woman like Gu Jin naturally doesn't like anything precious, and a hairpin made of sycamore wood may really be able to enter her eyes.

He smiled maliciously at Shang Guyuan.

Shang Guyuan realized that he had said the wrong thing.

But it's too late.

Lu Guitang said: "Then why don't you go and find me a sycamore tree!" ”
