Chapter 704: Zheng Lun's Marriage
Gu Chengyu glanced at Zhu Pang with a hippie smile, "Oh? Did you say that I had an errand? β
Zhu Pang looked around and saw that Ming Yan was in the house. He thought about it, as if he felt that Ming Yan was not an outsider.
Then he said, "Is it for the treasure map?" β
As soon as these words came out, Gu Chengyu was also stunned.
I didn't expect these people to even know the treasure map, and even Zhu Pang knew, so wouldn't all the officials in the capital know?
Gu Chengyu thought so, but he remained silent on the surface.
"Where did this come from? Since you just said that I received a secret errand from the emperor. Then it's inconvenient for me to reveal it to you, sometimes it's not a good thing to know too much. β
Gu Chengyu didn't want the love between the two to become impure so early, not long after he came back, Zhu Pang came to him.
Needless to say, it must have been told to him by the elders of Zhu Pang's mansion. For what, does it need to be said?
"Gotcha! Don't ask, don't ask. I knew you were sick, and I was so anxious. Who knew that when I came up to your house, I couldn't even see you, do you know how worried I am about you? β
Zhu Pang's expression was rare and serious, although Jin Yu didn't admit it, he didn't deny it, didn't he?
He was forced by his father to come, although he originally wanted to come to see Gu Chengyu, but he didn't want to come to Gu Mansion with such a purpose.
The friendship between him and Gu Chengyu is very sincere, and he doesn't want to mix too much utilitarianism into it.
But when people live in the world, they are always like this. His father didn't want to calculate Gu Chengyu, he just wanted to know more about the movements of the court!
And whether Gu Chengyu's treasure map has arrived, he doesn't want to ask, and he can't ask.
Gu Chengyu looked at his sincere eyes, and his heart was a little moved.
"Congguang, thank you!" Gu Chengyu stepped forward and patted Zhu Pang on the shoulder.
Coming to this dynasty, he gained friendship and family affection. He felt that even if he didn't have a supreme minister in the end, there would be no regrets.
Zhu Pang's eyes were a little moist, and his throat seemed to be blocked by some foreign object.
"Ahem! I'm so anxious for you, even the gray hair is going to come out, so you have to compensate me. β
Zhu Pang turned his face and didn't dare to look directly at Gu Chengyu. But Gu Chengyu saw his moist eyes and knew that he was embarrassed.
"Good! Don't you like my green lotus leaf plate? I've sent you. β
This lotus leaf plate is very exquisite, with lotus leaves carved with green jadeite, and there is a frog on it, which Gu Chengyu learned to carve with the jade in the space.
Although the carving is not as good as those masters, it is also very interesting, and Zhu Pang has liked it for a long time.
"That's your favorite, and I don't like it. I don't care, you want to invite me to Juxianglou for a good meal, I haven't been there for a long time. β
Zhu Pang glanced at Gu Chengyu, a gentleman does not take advantage of others, he is not an uninteresting person.
"Go to Juxianglou, I still stopped you? I've wanted to give you this ornament for a long time, and it was all for you to tease before. If you really don't want it, then I'll give it to Zheng Lun, he asked last time. β
"Hey~ Who said I didn't want it? Give me, give me. β
Zhu Pang was suddenly anxious, he thought that when the time came, he would exchange it with Gu Chengyu.
He and Gu Chengyu often exchanged jade and ornaments, and neither of them was the kind of person who liked to care.
"You're married, why are you still so naΓ―ve?" Gu Chengyu glanced at him and joked with a smile.
Zhu Pang's face suddenly turned red, and he was rarely shy.
When Gu Chengyu saw this, he knew that the little couple was doing well, and the big stone he had been putting in his heart before finally fell to the ground.
"It's good that I didn't make any more trouble with you before, and the rumors are really unbelievable."
Zhu Pang still sighed in the end, although his wife is not a beautiful fairy, she can be regarded as a beauty.
It's not a pockmarked face that is spread outside, I don't know who is so hateful, and he actually spreads it outside and ruins his wife's reputation.
"So in the future, don't listen to the wind or rain, but use your brain more to distinguish and distinguish."
Gu Chengyu smiled and shook his head, this Zhu Pang still has a bit of a juvenile heart.
"Hmmm! Hey, Zheng Lun said kiss. Zhu Pang suddenly looked gossipy and laughed a little obscenely.
"Oh? Whose girl are you talking about? When Gu Chengyu heard Zheng Lun say kiss, he immediately became interested.
"It's the concubine of Hu Maoshen, the right capital, and she is four at home!"
"Oh? What is this family business? Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, with Zheng Lun's mother's strength, she shouldn't be looking for a concubine to be her daughter-in-law, right?
Although the Dingnan Hou Mansion has gone downhill over the years, and Zheng Lun's father's house is still a concubine's house, Zheng Lun's mother's vision is quite high.
I want to say that the daughter of a big family is a daughter-in-law, so that my son can go more steadily and faster in his career.
For Gu Chengyu's surprise, Zhu Pang certainly knew the reason.
He and Zheng Lun had known each other long before Gu Chengyu, and the two had a good relationship at that time.
Zheng Lun's mother's thoughts, Zheng Lun had also said it twice in front of him before, and there was a hint of complaint in his words.
Because Zheng Lun's mother was like a demon, she had to find the daughters of those families.
But people have a better choice, who will take a fancy to you, the second son of the Hou Mansion?
In the future, the Hou Mansion will be divided, and Zheng Lun's father will not have an official position, so the family will have to rely on Zheng Lun and his eldest brother to support their dignity.
"How could you, Madame Zheng, agree? Although the girl was a concubine, her aunt had a difficult birth when she gave birth to her. The girl was raised in front of her mother-in-law since she was a child, and her mother had two sons and a daughter under her knees, and the eldest daughter had already married. That grandmother is not bad to this girl, and she can be regarded as half a daughter-in-law. β
Zhu Pang smiled and told the inside story of this matter.
"Oh~" Gu Chengyu suddenly realized, but in this way, this family business can be regarded as Zheng Lun's high climbing, this is an indisputable fact.
Hu Maoshen is now a second-class member, and this official position is not small.
If that girl gets along well with her mother-in-law, Zheng Lun will be able to rely on her father-in-law's relationship in the future.
Not to mention that he is like a fish in water in officialdom, but for the sake of his father-in-law's face, he always has to give Zheng Lun some face.
The father-in-law helped to mention it again, and with Hu Maoshen's relationship in the court, Zheng Lun would not be able to mix badly in the future.
"This is a good thing, and it can be regarded as following Mrs. Zheng's wishes."
Gu Chengyu was also happy for Zheng Lun, in such a dynasty, it was impossible to fall in love freely.
On the basis of unfree love, the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker are the unchangeable iron wheels.
Being able to find a wife who is helpful to a man's career is also the pursuit of those scholars nowadays.
The ancients believed in marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous wife, but not only the virtuous wife was mixed, but also mixed with the wife's family background and her status in her mother's family.
Zheng Lun married Hu Maoshen's daughter, which can be regarded as a family marriage.
"Ahem! It's just a little bit bad. Zhu Pang hid his smile, a little embarrassed.
"How?" Gu Chengyu looked at Zhu Pang suspiciously, could it be that there was something wrong with that girl?
