Chapter 390: The Emperor Summons
Immediately, he thought of Gu Changqing and them in Shangling Village, could it be that the eldest brother and the third brother have made a fortune? Otherwise, why would Gu Chengyu be able to afford such a big house, and see that Gu Chengyu has a good life, if the life in Shangling Village is not good, then where does all this money come from
And it can be seen that Gu Chengyu has a good upbringing, and he doesn't look like a farmer at all. If he knew that the life in Shangling Village was better, then he should have returned to his hometown with his second child and grandchildren earlier, and he didn't have to live a life without food in Yingnan Mansion.
Although Yingnanfu is rich, there are more rich and noble families. People like them can't afford to buy land, and their lives are just as hard.
The paddy fields in Yingnanfu are more expensive than the fields in the north, costing ten taels of silver per mu, and his family originally saved ten acres, but later the eldest died, and the second child divided the family. The eldest grandson wanted to study, so he sold three acres of land, and only two acres remained.
Returning to his hometown with the help of his eldest brother, life is always better than in Yingnan Mansion.
Gu Changbai glanced at the eldest grandson, saw that he was worried, and knew that he was also worried in his heart.
"Your little brother is fine, he was taken by a rich family to live a good life, and he will come back after a while, don't think about it. As for my nephew, now that he has become a big official, the house looks very rich, you just have to study with peace of mind. ”
Speaking of his little grandson, Gu Changbai sighed deeply. The Gu family has a descendant like Gu Chengyu, that is, there is green smoke on the ancestral grave. But that mysterious person seemed to want to target Gu Chengyu, and he was not stupid, of course he could guess it. Since the little nephew is an official, that person must be a person from officialdom, will it be unfavorable to the little nephew?
Although he was only given one order now, that is, to live in the Gu Mansion first, and the other tasks would be informed to him later. But in this way, he is even more worried in his heart, the things in the officialdom can't be explained clearly, if he spoils the nephew's affairs and provokes him to lose his official position or lose his life, then wouldn't the Gu family lose his support?
Will he be a sinner for the whole clan? And he heard that if the officials committed a crime, if it was serious, they would raid the house and exterminate the nine clans. He is Gu Chengyu's second uncle, and he will definitely not be able to escape.
In the past few days, he has been tossing and turning at night and can't sleep, just thinking about this. But if he doesn't do this, Xiao Qi won't be able to go home.
The man had promised that he had done things to satisfy his master, and not only did Xiao Mi have nothing to do, but his future could not be bad, and he was very hesitant in his heart. Therefore, he lingered in front of the Gu Mansion for several days, and only yesterday did he make up his mind.
"Don't worry about the silver, you will find a way. In a few days, when your cousin confirms our identity, I will show you to your cousin and ask him to recommend you to study in a school. ”
Gu Changbai comforted Gu Wanfang again, and then got up and prepared to go back to the room.
Gu Changbai didn't know that Gu Chengyu was suspicious of him, after all, he came to find his eldest granddaughter, and the flower boy was really arrested.
Everything is traceable, and when he came out, the little grandson reported his untimely death, as long as he and his family didn't show their mouths, then Gu Chengyu couldn't find anything.
Gu Wanfang looked at her grandfather who came out of the room, but the worry in her heart became even stronger. The master seems to be preoccupied during this time, he doesn't believe what the master said at all, why did the big family take the younger brother away? It's incredible.
If it is said that it was passed to others, it is impossible. He saw his love for Xiaomi, and his father died, leaving only him and his younger brother to inherit the incense. The lord will not be reluctant, there have been rich and noble families who have wanted to succeed before, but they have all been rejected by the lord, there is no reason why he will agree this time.
Gu Wanfang looked at the furnishings in the room, this room was better than the room in the previous inn. But this was all given by the cousin who had never met, and he felt a little bad in his heart, and the cousin must have come as if they were fighting the autumn wind.
Judging from the current situation, aren't they just here to fight the autumn wind? He smiled self-deprecatingly, he didn't know what kind of person that cousin was, I heard that my cousin was still very young!
Gu Chengyu invited the three of them to lunch, and looked at the books on the first floor of Wenhua Pavilion. Anyway, when he returned to the office today, he had nothing to do, and the palace had a rich collection of books, so he could read books to pass the time.
"Ouch! Jinyu, do you still have the leisure to read here? Quick, follow me. ”
Gu Chengyu was holding a copy of the customs of the previous dynasty and reading it with great interest, when suddenly Ren Ge's voice sounded in his ears. He was still a little puzzled, how could Ren Ge appear in Wenhua Pavilion?
As soon as Ren Ge stepped into the Wenhua Pavilion, he saw Gu Chengyu sitting on a stool flipping through the books in his hand, and he was still reading with relish!
He hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Gu Chengyu, and was about to run out. After Gu Chengyu was pulled, he looked dazed, what is this for?
"What is this doing, Lord Ren? What happened? Gu Chengyu was a little inexplicable, as soon as Ren Ge came in, he didn't say what happened, he just pulled him and ran out.
"Huh? Two adults, the books of Wenhua Pavilion can only be browsed in Wenhua Pavilion, but they can't be taken out of Wenhua Pavilion! Gan Dianshu hurriedly stepped forward and said anxiously to the two.
The books in the Wenhua Pavilion are all registered, and he can't eat and walk around without one.
"Oh! Sorry, the book was returned to you! Ren Ge listened to Gan Dianshu's words, and hurriedly took out the book in Gu Chengyu's hand and handed it to Gan Dianshu on the side.
"Lord Ren, why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Chengyu followed Ren Ge to his office, during which he ripped open his sleeves, it was really strange for Ren Ge who was so out of shape.
"Go faster, the emperor is going to summon you, and the whole father-in-law is already waiting at Lord Zhang." Ren Ge turned to Gu Chengyu and said, the envy in his words was fully revealed.
Gu Chengyu didn't expect the emperor to summon him, after all, he was still thinking about how to make the emperor think of him.
"Do you say for what purpose?" Gu Chengyu was not stunned by the pie, and the emperor suddenly summoned him, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
"Father-in-law didn't say anything, so it's not easy for us to inquire, right? Let's go! Don't let the emperor wait for a long time! "Gu Chengyu hasn't done any errands seriously, and the emperor shouldn't have summoned him to make things difficult for him. Gu Chengyu's writing style is good, maybe it is for this reason that he was summoned.
Ren Ge had analyzed it in his heart long before he came, and this was the only reason he could think of. The emperor had some impressions of Gu Chengyu before, and after so many days, he didn't forget him, and he couldn't say that Gu Chengyu would be able to get the Holy Favor.
He sent the money to report the letter to review, and he came to run the errands himself. If you don't come to sell favors at this time, when Gu Chengyu gets the Holy Favor, how can you still remember his goodness? It seems that he will be more enthusiastic about Gu Chengyu in the future.
Gu Chengyu didn't know the little Jiujiu in Ren Ge's heart, he was thinking about how to deal with the emperor when he saw him later, after all, it was a separate summons.
