At this time, Gu Yutang raised his eyes and saw that the lights were lit in the East Second Room, which had always been unoccupied, and there were a few maids standing outside the house. Gu Yutang stood in place, thinking about it for a while, he really couldn't think of who would have the leisure to come and see them in the courtyard next door?

She turned to Cai's mother and asked, "Mom, is someone coming from the courtyard next door?"

Mother Cai glanced in the direction of Dongjijian, nodded, and said secretly: "Third Miss, Uncle Shen Shi came over with the fourth girl at the beginning of the year, and they came over to say that when Mrs. Lin went out for a walk this evening, she was greedy and had a headache, but Brother Li had serious diarrhea, and as a grandmother, she was going to come to see her grandson in person, but her own head hurt so badly that she couldn't get up." So I asked Uncle Cheng and the four girls to come over to take a look on her behalf, no, Uncle Cheng and the four girls also brought a lot of medicinal herbs and children's toys when they came over. ”

Cai's mother said, pointing to the gifts that had been piled up in the hall as high as a hill.

Gu Yutang went in to take a look, and found that most of them were Chinese medicinal materials that nourished the body and some toys that children like to play. She picked up a rattle in her hand and shook it, and the rattle immediately made a crisp sound.

In fact, Gu Yuli is not small, if Gu Yuli is not a stupid idiot, but a healthy ordinary person, maybe in a few years he can be like Gu Yucheng, first won the first class Xie Yuan in the township examination, and after a year of Xie Yuan, he won the show in one fell swoop, and even the most famous Tonghua Academy in Chengjiang Mr. Xu praised Gu Yucheng in public that he was a seed of reading, if he cultivated more, he might be able to win the emperor's appreciation in the palace examination in the future, and enter the six processing documents.

The reason why Gu Yucheng can have such a high achievement today is not only that he is talented and studious, but also related to his mother, the second wife of the Gu family, Liang County Lord, whose father King Liang is the cousin of His Majesty today, and maintained a neutral attitude in the Jianwen Rebellion, and did not have too much contact with the Jianwen small court in Nanjing, nor did he have much communication with King Ning in Hangzhou.

Since His Majesty ascended the throne, there have been countless rebukes, and the scolding has come to him, saying that he, as the uncle of Emperor Jianwen, did not uphold the will of Emperor Taizu well, and actually seized the imperial power of his nephew, forcing Emperor Jianwen at that time to flee Jinling, and his whereabouts are still unknown. In order to suppress those civil and military generals who did not obey his rule, he also carried out a bureaucratic purge in Nanjing City in the name of the Qing monarch, and I don't know how many families in Jinling City fell into this purge.

At this time, the two people sitting in the east room also seemed to notice that someone was standing on the porch watching them, so they instructed the mother who was waiting in Shochikuin to light the way for them, and they slowly came out of the east room.

Gu Yutang was also tired from standing, she knew that Gu Yuli who was lying in the house had someone to serve her, and now he was still asleep, and he couldn't wake up for a while. She simply sat on the wooden chair in the corridor and waited for Gu Yucheng and Gu Yurou to come out.

Gu Yucheng came to the hall one step ahead of Gu Yurou, and saw that he was wearing an off-white cardigan robe, with a pattern of auspicious clouds embroidered with gold wire and silver thread on the neckline and cuffs, and a jade jade pendant of excellent color hanging on his waist, embroidered with a noble and arrogant plum blossom, just like Gu Yucheng, which was out of reach. Gu Yucheng's face is like a crown of jade, tall and handsome, if she wants to rank the appearance of the Gu family's men, she believes that Gu Yucheng's ranking will definitely not be behind.

The girl who followed behind Gu Yucheng was Gu Yurou, the pearl of her second aunt Liang County, who usually spoiled her almost without leaving the door, and was reluctant to let her do anything, she was the heart and soul of the whole family at home.

Sometimes, even her fourth brother Gu Yubai, the demon king of the mixed world in the small long room, didn't dare to provoke her at will.

Gu Yurou was only born one day later than her, so she had to call Gu Yutang sister according to the rules, for this matter, Gu Yurou didn't like Gu Yutang very much since she was born, and she rarely came to walk around the big long house. I saw that she was wearing a long placket with green folded branches and dark patterns, and she combed her hair in a bun at random, and wore sparse hair accessories on her bun. Wearing a flawless mutton fat jade bracelet, he has a medium stature, long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and an elegant temperament.

"Big brother is good, soft sister is good." Although it was still a long way away, Gu Yutang had already waved his hand to say hello.

Although the big and small long houses are now stiff because of the matter of succeeding the next head of the family, after all, those things are done by the adults and elders, and they have little to do with the juniors. So there is no need for her to deliberately avoid Gu Yucheng and Gu Yurou. They were able to come to visit Gu Yuli regardless of their previous suspicions, and they brought so many gifts, it was too late for her to thank them.

"Third sister, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't think that now you also have the ability to manage this great Gu Mansion alone. When I came, I heard that the eldest aunt had gone down with the housekeeper and the account office to deal with it because of an accident in the country grange, and she would not be able to return for a while. In the past few days, I'm afraid I'm going to have to work hard for the third sister. Gu Yucheng is still the same as usual, no matter who he meets, he has to be polite, and then he is on the right track.

"The third sister and the fourth brother's condition is much worse than last year, and their intelligence is degrading more and more seriously year by year. In two years, it will be the year of the fourth brother's crown, and then you should almost say kiss, who will take care of the fourth brother at that time? You should discuss with your aunt who will inherit your uncle's property in the future. Gu Yucheng stood beside Gu Yutang like an adult, chattering endlessly.

She doesn't know anything else for the time being, but Gu Yucheng's heart that cares about Gu Yuli is undeniable.

In the last life, when her mother signed the letter of separation, her mother could only choose one between her and her brother, and her mother did not choose her brother, who was already as stupid as a three-year-old child at that time, but chose her and took her back to Kunming.

After the mother was separated, the father welcomed Aunt Chen into the door, and Aunt Chen disliked Gu Yuli as a burden, so she left him in Songzhu Courtyard, and sent away almost half of the maids and daughters-in-law in Songzhu Courtyard. The remaining maids disliked Gu Yuli as an idiot, and no one was willing to take care of him, and planned to let him fend for himself in the Songzhu Courtyard.

After Gu Yucheng learned the news, he personally rushed to the Songzhu Courtyard, rescued Gu Yuli from the Songzhu Courtyard, and quarreled with Gu Lichi in the flower hall about this matter, ignoring that Gu Lichi was still his elder, and strongly reprimanded Aunt Chen for not doing her duty as a housewife.

No matter what, what flows in Gu Yuli's body is always the blood of the Gu family, and it can't be easily abandoned.

Gu Yucheng is a person who values loyalty and filial piety, and especially values his brothers of the same clan, although he was married at that time and lived alone in the courtyard, but he still took Gu Yuli over and took care of him. Even at that time, when her wife learned about this, she was not angry, but praised her husband for being a person who valued brotherhood, saying that she had not married the wrong person.
