Chapter 401
At this time, it is not an exaggeration to say that Su Jinyao's thoughts are springing. Pick up the pen and write the words, and the words become poems.
Su Jinyao felt that if the poem could be exchanged for the token of the Gu family, then she could exchange the gold medal in the old man's hand.
The reason why the quatrains of poets and poets can be passed down through the ages is that they are not only beautiful and moving, but also majestic and proud (qíng).
The poems written by Su Jinyao are not only crepe that make people fall into a storm, but also write some imposing (dàng) verses.
"Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass. The yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken. ”
With such integrity, one poem after another depicts the bloody battlefield and the majestic picture of the soldiers.
By the time the last poem was written, the old man of the Gu family had already stood up, and when he came to Su Jinyao's (shēn), he looked at the poem she had written on paper with a shocked expression.
It wasn't until Su Jinyao settled down on the last pen that she put the pen on the pen mountain, and the old man of the Gu family and Gu Shangqing breathed a long sigh of relief at the same time.
"Jinyao, this ...... Is this a poem you wrote? Gu Shangqing's tongue was a little stiff, he picked up the two pieces of paper in front of him, looked left and right, and took another breath.
The old man of the ancient family was also stunned for a long time, silent, unmoving.
Just when Su Jinyao turned (shēn), she saw a glittering water in the corner of the old man's eyes, and then a tear quietly slipped down the corner of her eye.
Gu Shangqing didn't notice that Old Man Gu actually touched his heart, and was still looking at the poem in his hand.
And Su Jinyao saw it, and her heart was slightly astringent. Looking at the poems he wrote again, he already understood why the old man was so sad.
He had two sons who died in battle, and the deaths were unknown. The old man has a clear mind, and he must also be aware of the reason, but who will bear the pain of losing his son and the hatred that is suffocated in his heart?
"Grandpa." Su Jinyao called softly, sighed, and whispered, "I was tricked." It was only because of my heart that I thought of these and wrote them. ”
"Girl, you deserve to be a tiger girl, Cheng Duo can have a daughter like you, he should be comforted if he has a spirit in the sky." After the old man of the Gu family finished speaking, he reached out and picked up the silver token on the table, and solemnly put it in Su Jinyao's hand.
The old man said: "There is only one golden order and three silver orders of the ancient family. Now that Shang Qing has inherited his father's piece, this piece of silver should be in your hands. With your integrity, this pride (qíng), the Gu family army will not decline in your hands, but will become more and more powerful. ”
Su Jinyao held the token, and her heart trembled slightly with the silver-white color.
What she is holding is not just a token, but the legacy left by her father, and the loyal and unyielding will of the generals of the Gu Family Army.
Gu Shangqing finally came back to his senses, put down the poem in his hand, and asked instead, "Grandpa, what do you mean this time?" As far as I know, this silver order is never passed on to outsiders. It was also my father back then, and my second and third uncles each had one piece. Now that I have inherited my father, then Jinyao has inherited the third uncle, is it a proof......"
"That's right. This is the courage and spirit that our ancient army should have. This girl is not simple, she can be called a member of the ancient family. After the old man finished speaking, he touched Su Jinyao's hair and said, "Girl, Shang Qing also mentioned the matter between you and the prince (qíng) to me." I also know what you are in a hurry to return to the Gu family this time. So grandpa wants to ask you, put aside the (qíng) division between you and the prince, and only talk about our blood relatives (qíng), are you willing to return to the ancient family? ”
Su Jinyao shook her head slightly when she heard this, and said, "Grandpa, if you asked me like this before today, I might have two answers." One is a lie, I say that I am willing to come back, and what I value most is the kinship (qíng) who is related by blood. One is the truth, I will tell you that my mother raised me alone and suffered a lot, and now I have finally relied on my own ability to do all this today, I can rely on no one else, I don't need the Gu family's relatives (qíng). ”
"Jinyao ......" Gu Shangqing was really anxious for Su Jinyao when he heard this, and hurriedly interrupted.
Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Brother, don't interrupt me." I'm just saying if before that. But what I want to say to my grandfather now is that I have the blood of the Gu family in my bones, and holding this token, I feel a call from the bottom of my heart. I want to return to the Gu family and become a member of the Gu family army. ”
The girl is right
Su Jinyao's words (qíng) were sincere, without any hypocrisy and flattery, and her eyes were even clearer and firmer. (@¥)
She wants to let Old Man Gu and Gu Shangqing understand that even if she is not for the feeling (qíng) with Gu Xuebin, just because of the belief in her heart, she will return to the Gu family.
Old Man Gu also looked at Su Jinyao, and after a while, he reached out and patted Su Jinyao's shoulder, and said, "Shang Qing said to me, you are the person who is most like Chengduo." I didn't believe it at the time. Recall your appearance, I think you and your mother are the most similar. But the feeling you gave me just now is really Cheng Duo's unique daughter, and even Shang Qing, who grew up with Cheng Duo, doesn't have the courage in your bones. Real women don't let their eyebrows go. (Chengduo: Gu Chengduo, Su Jinyao's biological father.) )
Gu Shangqing listened, but protested: "Grandpa, you don't have to recognize a granddaughter and belittle my grandson." You must know that without my efforts to find and move with my heart, how could Jinyao come back. ”
"Haha, okay, all right. You are grandpa's good grandson and granddaughter. After the old man finished speaking, he looked at the sky and said, "It's not too early, let's go to dinner." Today's dinner can't be called a reunion dinner, but grandpa promises to let you sit with our family as soon as possible and have a reunion dinner. ”
"Jinyao, thank you, grandpa." Su Jinyao was also full of excitement, this feeling was really a kiss (qíng) where blood was thicker than water, and it should be the innate intimacy of her body (shēn).
Now her heart is closer to the Gu family, which proves that she is ready to become a real Gu family.
Gu Shangqing hurriedly said: "Actually, whether to eat the reunion dinner or not is secondary, I think entering the genealogy is the first priority." Then it is best to take advantage of the National Day ceremony to invite the emperor and the queen mother to make a decree to give marriage. After all, the National Day ceremony can even pardon the felons in prison, so of course we can also respond to such a happy event. ”
If Gu Shangqing didn't mention the matter of marriage (qíng), he would have just asked Su Jinyao to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors before, which is okay to say.
Now that he mentioned this, the old man suddenly remembered something and asked, "Girl, grandpa has something to ask you." Did you really get the dowry of Princess Zeguo that day? ”
Su Jinyao looked at Gu Shangqing and knew that he must have told Old Man Gu about this matter as well.
What's more, those gold and silver were also given to the Gu family army by Su Jinyao, and it was even stranger that the old man didn't know.
Su Jinyao didn't hide it anymore, nodded, and said, "I did it." But I couldn't think of any other way. If I can't have the best of both worlds, I'd rather solve the problem directly in this simple and crude way. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao bowed (shēn) again and said, "Grandpa, I know that this matter (qíng) is very important, and it may even have an impact on the Gu family. But I won't let this matter affect the Gu family, if I am tracked down, I am willing to bear it. ”
The old man of the Gu family did not express his opinion immediately, thought about it and asked Su Jinyao: "You said you thought about this matter?" Can't you make a little sacrifice. What's more, it is very common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that he is the prince of the current prince (diàn), the prince of the dignified Cloud Dome Kingdom. ”
Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Just imagine, how can a person with his own heart (ài) give it to others." I am a woman, but I want to be the head of twenty-five cottages, in order to compete for a name, so as not to be despised by others without a name. Besides, where is Tianzeguo's coming and kissing, it is basically a (bī) marriage. If the dowry really entered the capital, this matter (qíng) would be realized, and there would be no room for relaxation at all. ”
As she spoke, Su Jinyao paid close attention to the old man's watch (qíng). Seeing that he didn't have much anger, he continued: "There is also the most important point, the Duke of Tianze Kingdom is mainly to become the crown princess, but I am afraid that it is our entire Cloud Dome Kingdom that is calculating. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao explained what she and Gu Xuebin had analyzed, about the purpose of Tianze Kingdom's desire to put aside the Yunqiong Kingdom and directly deal with the dignitaries of Nanyuan Kingdom.
Su Jinyao explained, "I am also in business, so I know very well what Helian Ruo has done (qíng) and how much it has helped our Cloud Dome Country. She did not affect the livelihood of our people in the slightest, but held the economic lifelines of Tianze and Nanyuan in her hands. But if Tianze Kingdom breaks this balance, it is likely that Helian Ruo's years of hard work will be in vain. At that time, the livelihood of the people will begin to move (dàng), and the degree of harm will be no less than that of a war. ”
After Su Jinyao finished speaking, the old man Gu was still at nothing at first, and then nodded slowly. After that, he laughed "haha" and said, "Girl, what you said is reasonable." No matter from what point of view, we should first consider the livelihood of the people, even if our ancient army wants to be on the battlefield, it is also the people of the Cloud Dome Country and a large territory that we are defending. So, your idea grandpa agrees. A dowry, robbed and robbed, as a military salary, we still have a lot of use. ”
After Su Jinyao listened, a stone fell to the ground. said: "Grandpa, I have been to Mobei, and I know the hardships of those border soldiers. Although the money I took out was not much, I was able to buy some things for the Gu Jiajun, even if each person only had an extra pair of cotton shoes or a cotton hat, it was an affirmation and a heart for the soldiers. ”
"Okay, I always think about the soldiers of the Gu Family Army in my heart, and your silver order is worth it." Old Man Gu said, looked at Gu Shangqing, and said, "Study hard with your sister, don't run around outside all day." The Gu family, starting from your generation, will also make achievements. Our Gu family can't claim to be the pillar of the Cloud Dome Country, but the Gu family's loyalty to the Cloud Dome Country will definitely not be less. So don't let others say that the Gu family has produced a prodigal son who is ultimately idle. ”
Gu Shangqing immediately bowed (shēn) and agreed, "Grandpa, I have been outside before, and I am also here to help you find this good granddaughter of Jin Yao." Now that Jinyao has found it, of course I will retract my thoughts. I will fight side by side with Jinyao to make the Gu Family Army better and better. ”
"Yes, that's good." The old man smiled and took the lead to walk out, and said: "I'm old, and I have a caring granddaughter, it's really a blessing for the old man." ”
Su Jinyao followed behind the old man's (shēn), looked at this energetic and energetic old man, and silently wished him a long life.
It is really nice to have the care and pampering of loved ones, and at the same time to be needed by relatives.
And when she was having dinner, Su Jinyao saw an old man again, Qin Siwu, the shopkeeper of Feihongfang in Anji City.
Ancient family motto
The old man specially called Qin Siwu over to ask him to check the yellow calendar and see which of the nearest (rì) days was the best.
He wanted to choose a Huang Daoji (rì), officially accept Su Jinyao into the ancient family, record her name in the family tree, and let her recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors.
Although it is said that the National Day ceremony is imminent, the Gu family is not a royal family, but also a royal family and a famous family.
And because Su Jinyao received the token of the Gu Jiajun, she was even more sloppy. This matter of entering the genealogy (qíng) was handed over to Qin Si Wu to be fully responsible.
After the meal, the old man Gu said again: "Girl, since you are a member of our Gu family, let Shang Qing take you to see the family history and ancestral books of the Gu family." This is also the root of our ancient family motto. ”
Gu Shangqing said: "Yes, Jin Yao, grandpa didn't treat you as an outsider, so he asked you to follow me to see the family motto ancestral book." You have to memorize the teachings inside. ”
Su Jinyao nodded in agreement, said goodbye to Old Man Gu, and followed Gu Shangqing.
After going out and walking for a while, Gu Shangqing said: "Jin Yao, when we were young, we all asked to memorize the family rules of our ancestors. You're coming back late, but you can't afford to lose it. ”
Su Jinyao only knew at this time that Gu Shangqing had just said that he would not treat her as an outsider, and that he intended to let her recite the ancestral family rules.
However, thinking that the children of the Gu family grew up like this, Su Jinyao's heart felt particularly full and sweet.
Gu Shangqing led Su Jinyao to the row of rooms at the back, and immediately a small servant came out from the concierge next to him.
Gu Shangqing said: "This is the second lady of our family, grandpa asked me to take her to see the ancestral family rules." ”
The little servant immediately agreed, turned back and went into the porter's room, and came out with two keys, one large and one small. The two keys were bolted to a copper ring and handed to Gu Shangqing together.
Gu Shangqing took the key and went to the second door next door, opened the door, and took the little servant and brought two oil lamps over. He also asked, "Young Master, do you need to serve tea?" ”
"No need, but you can bring some candied fruit and fruit to Jinyao." After Gu Shangqing finished speaking, he had already pushed the door and let Su Jinyao follow her in.
Su Jinyao took the oil lamp in the little girl's hand and said "thank you".
This wing room is not big, and when you enter the room, you smell a smell of camphor wood, which should be convenient for saving things like paintings, so you can use camphor wood boxes and some pills.
Su Jinyao carried an oil lamp and followed Gu Shangqing's (shēn), looking at the big shelves on the left and right as she walked, and asked, "This is Zangzhai?" Shouldn't the ancestral teachings be placed in the ancestral house? I thought Zu Xun should have been placed in Anji City. ”
Gu Shangqing said: "Of course, the original book of the original work is in the ancestral house. Several of the books here were copied by me and Xueqi and Yuxuan when I was a child. ”
After a pause, Gu Shangqing said again: "In addition, there is also a family motto here, which was written by the third uncle when he was young. I was thinking, grandpa also wanted me to show you that. ”
Su Jinyao suddenly felt a warm feeling in her heart, it turned out that her grandfather's thoughts were to bring her closer to her father, who had never met.
Gu Shangqing saw her excitement from Su Jinyao's eyes. smiled and said, "I have to tell you one more thing, you will think that grandpa is very good to you." ”
Su Jinyao had already said to her grandfather, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Before Gu Shangqing could speak, he heard a knock on the door. It was the little guy who came in with two plates of preserves, and a small basket with a few fruits in his arms.
Gu Shangqing pointed at this little guy with a smile and said, "Jin Yao, you ask him, whose class did he take over to guard the door here?" ”
After listening to this, he raised his head and smiled at Su Jinyao, and said politely and respectfully: "Second Miss Hui, the previous brother who guarded the door, called Su Cheng, is a child brought by the old man (shēn)." ”
"Sioux City?!! Are you saying that before you, it was the small city that guarded the Tibetan fast? Su Jinyao was surprised, she really didn't expect to be able to find traces of the small city here.
The little guy replied, "Second Miss Hui, he has sorted out all the books here." The old man also valued him very much, and now he specially invited a gentleman to send him to another courtyard to study. I heard that I will be taking the (chūn) exam next year. ”
Su Jinyao listened and breathed a sigh of relief.
She originally thought that Xiao Cheng'er's insistence on abandoning the martial arts might make the old man of the Gu family unhappy.
Now it seems that instead of being angry, the old man is also generously cultivating the small city. The old man of the ancient family can really be called a noble man in a small town.
The little guy replied and took his leave.
Su Jinyao looked at everything here again, it was really indescribably kind.
She was secretly sighing to herself, when she saw Gu Shangqing move a ladder and put it in front of a frame by the wall, climb it and start rummaging.
Su Jinyao hurriedly came below, helped hold the ladder with one hand, and raised her head and asked, "Brother, what are you looking for?" ”
"Find the family motto copied by the third uncle." Gu Shangqing said, and moved the left and right ones a little, then dragged out a wooden box from the shelf and handed it to Su Jinyao.
Su Jinyao took it, only feeling quite heavy. However, there is not much dust on the surface, so it can be seen that there are often people cleaning here, and there are no individual corners that are overlooked.
Su Jinyao put a wooden box on the table, and first gently brushed the top again, brushing off the floating ash. Then he slowly pulled the box open and saw that there were three thick hand-copied family mottos inside.
