Before sending off the mother-in-law of the Lu family, Old Man Gu strode over, sat down with a snort, and instructed Gu Yao: "Your younger brother is well raised, don't get used to it." How you live in Fengcheng, you want him to do it. ”

It's Brother Shang, right? Brother Shang, is it my turn to take care of it?

Seeing that the old man was unhappy, Gu Yao resisted the urge to complain, and said with a smile: "Grandfather wants his granddaughter to follow himself and raise a younger brother who is an all-round civil and military talent?" But it depends on talent! ”

"Civilian-military all-rounder? When will it be? I think you're self-styled? Old Man Gu shouted, and the grievances in his heart went a little.

Gu Yao glared at his father who was smiling on the side, and took the chicken cake sent by Song Haitang. Just looking at the appearance of the small wine cup, the old man has already come to the interest. Pinch an entrance, sweet but not greasy, soft and delicious, it couldn't be better for people like him who have bad teeth!

The old man took a bite and a dozen or so small cakes, and they were gone in the blink of an eye, so he hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Naturally, it's gone, there are only a dozen or so in total, and they were given by the girl who sold persimmons yesterday. My dad and I only tasted one, and we left the rest for my grandfather. Gu Yao explained the source, and did not forget to brush up on himself and his father.

Gu Zhixian was a lot more kind, he said: "That child is from Ruanjiazhuang, if my father likes it, I will send someone to invite her to come over and do more." ”

The sweet pastries warmed the stomach, the filial piety of the children and grandchildren, and warmed the heart of the old man Gu, the old man was depressed, so he went to the empty place, because he asked Gu Yao: "The prefect's wife is looking for you something?" ”

Gu Yao told his mother-in-law what he said, and asked him about the prefect's family.

Of course, the old man didn't know, so he looked at his son as a matter of course and ordered: "Second child, you say." Second, second, talk about you! ”

Gu Zhixian, who didn't know what to think, quickly came back to his senses, stroked his beard, made a thoughtful statement, and said: "The lady of the prefect Lu is quite jealous, and the prefect has no concubine except for the lady. Yaoyao is a concubine, but I am afraid that Mrs. Lu will not like it. I don't like it, but I specially invite Yaoyao to go over, I think there are other reasons - in my opinion, Mrs. Lu rushed, I am afraid that it is the identity of the granddaughter of the Hou Gan of Baoding. Yes, far away, just go, and act generously. ”

Gu Yao bowed his head and said, "Uncle Eleventh said earlier that Grandpa Meng's reputation in Shilin is even better. If Daddy doesn't want to move the land, Grandpa Meng should be able to make it energetic. ”

Emperor Yongle has ordered the construction of the Beiping Palace on the basis of the ruins of the Yan Palace, that is, the palace city of the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, in accordance with the Jingshi Imperial Palace, which opened the prelude to the relocation of the capital. Gu Yao got the letter from Gu Zhixian yesterday, and the old man got the news from King Zhao, and the old man said: "It is rumored that the saint is going to move the capital, but it is not reliable in the end, and it may not be possible, but there is no need to stay in Shuntian all the time."

Gu Zhixian said: "What my father said is true."

Gu Yao was silent.

Last night, her father said that the prefect of Lu is a capable person, and he wants to follow the prefect of Lu. To tell the truth, his official road, no matter how much his grandfather shouts, there is no point in listening to him.

After saying a few more casual words, and sending the old man back to Huaihua Temple Hutong, Gu Yao asked casually: "Grandpa, do Shen Congjun live in Yanwang's Mansion?" ”

The old man should be, and said, "By the way, I just said it to you." Tomorrow, I will go to get the silver first, buy some beds and bedding, and place them in the front yard of the back cover room, everything is ready, and I will take Shen Congjun and them to come and live, and earn the tolerance of the capital and the silver. ”

"What, plus the guards, there will be two or three people in a room, and when they are gone, what will those bedding and beds do in vain!" As soon as he saw that the old man was going to make his home like Liaodong, Gu Yao immediately disagreed.

Gu Zhixian was already messy and couldn't speak......

The old man said angrily: "You don't want this silver!" Now Wanping is full of people, and the beds and bedding are still afraid that they won't be sold? Of course, it is better not to sell the beds and bedding that you earn for nothing, and rent out the house directly, and you can earn enough to eat and drink by only collecting loose rent. ”

While talking, when he arrived at the corner gate, Gu Yao hurriedly said: "Grandpa go slowly, Dad, you can send Grandpa yourself, I'll go back first to find the clothes for the day after tomorrow." ”

"Stinky girl!"

After rummaging through the cabinets, Gu Yao fixed his red clothes, festive, and would not dominate the guests.

Early the next morning, Gu Yao went to Huaihua Temple Hutong, and someone from the back office said that Song Haitang had arrived, and Gu Yao simply invited people to Huaihua Temple Hutong.

Song Haitang's thin arms, carrying a large food box, looked at it and worried about it, Gu Yao drank the mother-in-law who led the way: "How do you ask guests to carry things!"

The mother-in-law didn't give Gu Yao a lot of face, she smiled and spoke, but the words she spit out were very unpleasant: "Look at what the girl said, this peasant girl, who is the guest?"

"You girls say they are guests, what so much nonsense!" After training the mother-in-law, the old man said to Gu Yao again, "What did I say?" Your dad is soft and prone to accidents. Such a mother-in-law, grandfather can't kill him with a whip! ”

"Why bother to burden yourself for others? Later, I will ask Steward Gu to quit her, and that's it. ”

While the grandfather and grandson were talking, they took the food box at the same time. When he opened the box and saw that the chicken cake was still hot, Gu Yao thought that Song Haitang had tossed out the thermos bucket, so he asked her, "How did you get it?" Why has it been so long, and it's still hot? ”

"Because, it's not long ago!" Song Haitang pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "My father's leg is not good, he had no money before, and he was brought to treat him the day before yesterday because of the girl's money." The medical center where my father was treated was on Fuya Street, which was very close to here. I rented a room at the back of the hospital, and the chicken cake was brought out of the pot, so it was still hot. ”

"How much does a room cost?"

"Fifty cents. In the first place, my father resisted a day's food packets, and only earned forty yuan. ”

Fifty a day, more than one a month, short-term rental, it's really expensive...... After Gu Yao sighed, he saw that Song Haitang had a painful face, so he said: "The medical hall is not suitable for living, the house in the back of the county government is empty, why don't you let your father move in and live for a few days, and call the doctor to come to the door every day to take a look." You'll have to make some good food with us to pay for the room, okay? ”

Song Haitang shouldn't be? After thanking her, he ran away to tell her dad the good news. Old Man Gu looked at her departing figure, thoughtfully, he asked Gu Yao quietly: "Do you want the whole cook again?" ”

"What? Where did it come from? Brother Quan is not a cook! Gu Yao couldn't hold back this time, and after spraying the truth, he hurriedly said, "Asking Song Haitang to be a cook is too big and useless!" When she and I grow up, wouldn't our whole restaurant be better? ”

Old Man Gu glanced at his granddaughter who had just reached his waist, and then thought about Song Haitang, who was a head taller, Old Man Gu had a hopeless old face in this life and stopped talking.

Song Haitang's stay greatly enriched Gu Yao's life. No matter how hard it was during the day, she soaked in the kitchen with Song Haitang at night. The two of them poured a lot of food, but the old man Gu was very dissatisfied, he said with a sad face: "The girl with no conscience, she has only been back for a few days, so she doesn't want her grandfather." ”

Gu Yao said angrily: "It's my grandfather who doesn't want me first." You don't want me anymore, and you don't want me to be good with others? ”

Old Man Gu was speechless when he was asked, Gu Zhixian felt something, and asked Aunt Shen when he went back: "He has been away for so many years, why don't you let go and live with me wholeheartedly, isn't it?" ”

Aunt Shen was thinking about another layer, if she got along with the second master, if that person came back, she wouldn't want herself, right? After saving this thought, Aunt Shen became more and more alienated from Gu Zhixian.

Let's say that the doctor who gave Song Erlang a leg look forward to getting the Gu family's blue eyes and becoming the Gu family's royal doctor, so he took out his housekeeping skills, and in less than half a month, Song Erlang was cured. After Song Erlang's leg regained consciousness, he announced: "There is no need for another diagnosis, after two or three months, you can go to the ground." ”

Old Man Gu saw that he also had some ability, so he asked him, "Are you willing to serve in the army?" ”

The doctor almost cried, it was Gu Zhixian who he wanted to please, not Gu Zhixian's father!
