"Childe! Yin's Mansion has arrived! Ming Mo and Ming Yan jumped out of the car and said to Gu Chengyu in the carriage.

Gu Chengyu lifted the curtain of the carriage door and looked out, Yin's Mansion was a second-entry mansion, located in the north of the capital. Don't look at it as just a binary, in fact, the scale is not small. The streets to the north are all high-ranking officials and nobles who live, and the senior brother Yin Kun is a third-grade person, and his official position is neither big nor small. The Yin family is a farming heirloom, and their ancestors are not wealthy, except for a hundred acres of land, they have no other income.

However, although Yin Kun lived on his income, he married his wife Liang, the second daughter of the Hou Mansion of Anhe. His teacher Liang Zhirui is a side branch of Anhe Houfu, and the two families have not yet produced five suits, and Liang is his niece.

Don't think that if Yin Kun marries the Liang family, he won't worry about money. In fact, there is a huge Anhe Hou Mansion, and the life inside is also very embarrassing.

Anhe Marquis Mansion is one of the famous broken settlements in the capital, originally a hereditary title, the younger generations rely on the ancestral shade, do not learn and have no skills, and there are no promising children. Today's Hou Mansion only has an empty title, and the court can't speak, in fact, it is just a name!

This is what Mingmo and they inquired about, and the whole capital knows about it, and it is not a secret. Gu Chengyu asked Mingmo to inquire about the senior brother and the third senior brother, and the situation in the senior brother's family was probably like this.

The third senior brother He Jisheng turned out to be a poor student, but somehow he got the teacher's eyes and climbed to his current position step by step. Of course, there must be a role as a teacher, but it is undeniable that he himself is also a capable person.

After the teacher, he can go up one level, and this person should not be underestimated. The news that Mingmo inquired about was that He Jisheng was very tactful, and he had a good relationship with his colleagues and superiors in the DPRK and China. And the senior brother gives people the feeling of being upright and very hearty. However, I heard that there are many colleagues who have had a holiday with him, which should have something to do with his official position.

Gu Chengyu was a little hesitant, it stands to reason that the senior brother's official rank is high, and the senior brother should be the first choice, but he feels that the third senior brother is sleek and well-connected, which is of certain benefit to the restaurant.

It's just that he doesn't have any foundation now, and he can't expect others to take care of him for the sake of his senior brothers. The rumors could not be believed, and he felt that he would have to come to the door and meet people in person.

Since the two families are going, the second senior brother's family can't be left behind. Although he was not in the capital, he still had a female dependent, and his wife stayed in the capital to serve the old lady in the house.

Gu Chengyu got out of the carriage and motioned for Mingmo to go up and knock on the door.

"As soon as I was tired of reporting, I said that the student Gu Chengyu came to visit!"

The porter got up early in the morning, and the old man had just come down to court, and it was the time when he was free, so he fell asleep at this time. Suddenly heard a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was a little scholar with a servant knocking on the door, and the porter frowned. Some of them are three thousand miles old with the master, and they still come to climb the relationship.

He didn't even read the post in Mingmo's hand, and was about to blast people out. suddenly heard the name Gu Chengyu and woke up suddenly.

Two days ago, someone sent a post, and the steward said that if a student named Gu Chengyu came, he would go to the study of the outer courtyard to report.

He hurriedly closed the post in Mingmo's hand, and at a glance, it was indeed Gu Chengyu, who was full of cleverness. A smile immediately appeared on his face, "Gu Gongzi, please wait a while, the little one will go and report!" ”

As he spoke, he invited Gu Chengyu into the corner gate to rest. Generally, the door of the official house will be opened when there is a distinguished guest or a big gift, and the entrance and exit are corner doors on weekdays.

"Then I'm going to bother the little brother!" Mingmo took out a tael of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the porter.

The porter was used to it, so he didn't shirk it, and then put it in his arms, which was extremely skillful, and must have been done many times. Sure enough, after winning the reward, his attitude was much better.

Seeing this, Gu Chengyu suddenly thought of that sentence, the king of Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult!

didn't wait long, and the porter came to invite Gu Chengyu in.

"But Gu Gongzi? The slave is the steward of the outer court of the Yin Mansion, surnamed Qin. Ask the son and the slave to go to the outer study, and the master is already waiting in the study. Steward Qin was a middle-aged man in his forties, and at this time, his face was slightly downward, and he did not look directly at Gu Chengyu.

"Then it's bothering Steward Qin!" Gu Chengyu nodded and followed Steward Qin to the study in the outer courtyard. As for Mingmo and Mingyan, they have their own resting place.

"Student Gu Chengyu has seen Master Yin!" Gu Chengyu and Yin Kun met for the first time, and the number of courtesies they should have should not be less.

Yin Kun's face is square, and there is a vertical line in the center of his eyebrows, which should be caused by perennial frowning. He was wearing a stone blue robe, and when he saw Gu Chengyu coming in, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Why are you so unfamiliar? We are senior brothers, you should call me senior brother! I have long heard that you have come to the capital, you have been preparing for the township test before, and I don't want to bother, now that the township test has passed, our senior brothers are meeting for the first time today, and you will stay in the house at noon to eat. As soon as Yin Kun heard Gu Chengyu's name, his face was obviously unhappy, and then he began to keep food.

"Big brother!" Gu Chengyu saw that Yin Kun's demeanor didn't seem to be fake, so he called Senior Brother from a good voice.

"Sit down! You haven't been to the second and third brothers, have you? Although your second senior brother is not at home, don't miss it, his housewife and old lady are still in the house, you should come to visit! ”

Yin Kun saw that Gu Chengyu was still a little baby, and he was afraid that he would lack something in human sophistication, so he ordered him a few words.

"I've already sent a post, and I'll go over tomorrow to pay a visit!" Gu Chengyu was also not restrained, and sat opposite Yin Kun.

Yin Kunzi Gu Chengyu came in and kept looking at him. Originally, he heard from the teacher that he had accepted a closed disciple, and he was a little surprised. Because the teacher said before that he didn't want to accept any more disciples.

In recent years, the teacher's temperament has become more and more freewheeling, and it seems that this Gu Chengyu has entered the teacher's eyes. He was very curious about this little junior brother who had a reputation at a young age, and he finally met the real person today.

"Can you be sure of this autumn?" The teacher mentioned in the letter that he had always valued Gu Chengyu and felt that he was a manufacturable material. When Gu Chengyu went to Beijing, the teacher also sent letters to him and the second junior brother respectively, asking them to take care of them.

"There are no absolutes, we can only say that we have done our best!" Of course, Gu Chengyu couldn't say that he was sure, which inevitably left a rampant impression.

Gu Chengyu had lunch at Yin's Mansion and went back, after all, Yin Kun was busy with official business, and he didn't want to be too bothered. As for the matter of the restaurant, he only came to the door for the first time today, so it is not easy to mention it directly.

After talking to Yin Kun for a few words, he felt that he should be an upright person, and he still had some affection for him, a little junior brother.

The rest, we will wait for the day after tomorrow to visit the Wu Mansion and the He Mansion.
