Chapter 103 Poverty
She knows so much.
Even Gu Yuan didn't expect these things.
No wonder before leaving Taoyuan Town, Zhuzhu went into the study and flipped through the books for a long time.
Gu Yuan smiled with relief, Zhuzhu was the most likely to inherit his father-in-law's mantle.
I wonder if my father-in-law will regret not raising Zhuzhu himself when he comes back to see his youngest granddaughter.
Gu Mingzhu didn't have any thoughts of pride and complacency.
Peeling off the skin of the Xiao family is not something to be proud of at all!
If she doesn't say it today, Gu Yuan will say it in the future, and others will also mention the history of the Xiao family.
Most of the real famous and wealthy families were destroyed in the war, after all, under the rule of the barbarians of the previous dynasty, many families that had been inherited for a long time completely declined.
The people who followed Emperor Qin Yuan to fight the world were not from high backgrounds, and they suddenly became rich and noble, and they instinctively wanted to change their court to improve their status, so they admired famous and talented women.
The Xiao family took this opportunity to send a well-cultivated daughter.
Xiao's women's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all proficient, gentle temperament, outstanding appearance, coupled with the good reputation of the Xiao family, they are naturally regarded as the daughters of famous families.
It is enough to fool this group of founding heroes.
And those who know the details of the Xiao family are either afraid of the Xiao family's current power, or they can't open their mouths at all.
The Xiao family has never had any mercy on the enemy.
There are more and more nobles who marry with the Xiao family, and the Xiao family is originally a family that relies on women to be shaped into a poetic heirloom with a strong background.
The daughter of the Xiao family became a model for women in the world.
In addition to seeking justice for her grandmother, Gu Mingzhu hopes that the world will understand that an excellent woman is by no means only a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but only boastful and empty talk.
The side door of the Zhenguo Mansion was wide open, and more than a dozen subordinates poured out of the mansion, poof, poof, and knelt on the ground, "Welcome the uncle back to the house." ”
"Big brother, where is big brother."
A man dressed in a fine costume hurried out to greet him.
He is handsome, with two sword eyebrows that are not in his sideburns, and he looks extremely powerful and capable.
It is also somewhat similar to Gu Yuan.
However, Gu Yuan was more elegant, he was fierce and strong.
Xu didn't smile often, the corners of his mouth and brows were wrinkled, although he was calling Brother Gu Yuan, but from the appearance, it seemed that he was two years older than Gu Yuan.
The long sword hanging from his waist highlights the aura of a superior person.
Gu Jin, the prince of Zhenguo!
Lady Shaw's eldest son.
One of the commanders of Emperor Qin Yuan's guards, he was even valued by Emperor Qin Yuan.
He took the lead in stretching out his hand to Gu Yuan, choking with tears in his eyes: "Today our brothers are finally reunited, bless our ancestors and ancestors, big brother, we miss you so much." ”
Gu Yuan chuckled lightly, "I believe this, but I believe that you miss me...... Never have to set foot in your house again. ”
Gu Jin: "......"
Gu Mingzhu pursed the corners of her mouth, Gu Yuan was so straightforward, Mrs. Xiao and they must not have thought of it.
Originally, they were people who were opposed to each other, and they couldn't play the friendship drama of brotherly reunion.
"Let's go in and talk about it, when the eldest brother sees his mother, you will understand, my mother has not given up looking for you all these years."
Gu Jin knew that he couldn't let Gu Yuan stand at the gate of the mansion for too long, and wanted to force Gu Yuan to enter the door with the kung fu he had practiced over the years.
After all, the news they got that Gu Yuan was just a scholar, and in terms of articles, maybe he was not as good as Gu Yuan, but his kung fu was also practiced over time.
"Don't do anything to your big brother."
Mrs. Gu slapped Gu Jin away.
Gu Jin's wrist was swollen, and his bones were almost broken by her slap.
That's a lot of strength!
Gu Jin originally didn't believe that the petite and weak Gu Yuan's wife had this brute force, but the pain in his wrist at this time made him understand that the information was not false.
Gu Mingzhu then said: "I haven't heard of any family rules where the younger brother forcibly pulls the elder brother, it seems that I really can't expect too much from Mrs. Xiao." ”
Gu Jin: "......"
Gu Mingzhu smiled at her mother, "As the eldest daughter-in-law and the wife of the Gu family, my mother has the responsibility to rectify the Zhenguo Mansion and the Gu family, and I am afraid that my mother will have to work hard in the future." ”
never mentioned the prince of Zhenguo, but used the clan woman as the starting point.
Even the wife of the prince is not allowed to be presumptuous in front of the clan wife.
Gu Mingzhu smiled brightly, "Dad, let's go in, I'm a little tired." ”
On the contrary, Zhuzhu found a breakthrough, is he too useless as a father?
"The prince of Zhenguo is not going to leave quickly?"
Gu Mingzhu glanced back at Gu Jin, who was secretly rubbing his wrists and had complicated eyes: "Don't you follow the eldest brother?" We're waiting for you to lead the way. ”
The tone full of disgust and disappointment made the old prince of Zhenguo blush, and he couldn't get off the stage.
No one had ever taught him like this!
He is the prince of the town, and after the founding lord grew old, he became the leader of the noble!
How many noble sons have taken him as a model and looked up to him.
As long as he appears, which time is not a front and back hug?
Who among the officials in the court doesn't give him some face?!
At this time, if he had a verbal confrontation with his niece, he would be even more shameless.
"Cousin."
How could Gu Changle see his father being humiliated by Gu Mingzhu's words, he stepped forward and said earnestly:
"I know you're uncomfortable, you've been drifting around the rivers and lakes with your uncle, and you haven't been able to enjoy the wealth of the Guogong Mansion, and I see how dissatisfied and envious we are growing up in the Guogong Mansion."
"Although we enjoyed the rare wealth of outsiders, my father also took responsibility. He is no easier than anyone else, only by doing the best can he satisfy his grandfather, and by doing his best can he not fall into his grandfather's prestige. ”
Gu Changle sighed: "My cousin only sees wealth, but she doesn't know the danger. ”
Gu Mingzhu blinked her eyes and asked innocently, "Mrs. Xiao has more money than my mother?" ”
Gu Changle: "......"
The sound of laughter came, and they didn't want to laugh, they couldn't help it.
The silver that Gu Yuan brought back was still placed on the ground in boxes and boxes, and it was estimated that there were tens of thousands of taels.
"Don't talk nonsense without investigating the truth, it's not a shame."
Gu Mingzhu sneered, "Look, it's a joke again, I can tell you that this silver is just a little bit of my mother leaking out of her fingers." I have never suffered since I was a child, and I don't envy the wealth of the Zhenguo Mansion as you say. ”
"Not to mention this mansion...... I'm afraid I don't even have a title deed. ”
Gu Mingzhu said slowly: "The mansion given by the emperor to the Duke of Zhenguo will stay until the Duke of Zhenguo for a hundred years...... I'm afraid it's going to be recycled. ”
"And my mother has a lot of gardens and fields in Jiangnan, have you ever eaten rice porridge cooked with candles? Have you sprinkled gold leaves into the Qiantang River? ”
Gu Changle: "......"
It's not just her, but Gu Jin is a little dizzy when he hears it, isn't this a fool wasting money?
Gu Mingzhu has nothing to be proud of!
But when the words came out of her mouth, it would only make people envious.
"Poverty restricts your thinking, thinking that the Zhenguo Mansion is a wealth that pours the sky."
Gu Mingzhu sneered: "I don't blame you for being shallow-eyed, follow my mother in the future, you will envy my rich life." ”
