Chapter 8 Extravagance

Although this noble prince was very anxious and impatient, when the other guest had finished washing, he easily stood in the courtyard and looked into the distance, as if he was admiring the snow, and this one's footsteps had not yet stepped into the guest room!

It's not that this boy's subordinates are too slow, it's really too particular - the furnishings of the entire guest room have been changed, the soft smoke window screen has been hung, the carpet with brocade has been laid on the ground, the charcoal basin in the corner of the wall has no trace of silver charcoal without a trace of peculiar smell, the table is a tablecloth of green radish yarn, the utensils of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are all palace products, and the curtain made of shark silk hangs low......

The ordinary farmhouse, with all kinds of treasures, becomes extremely luxurious, but it does not show off, and the nouveau riche magnificence is far from comparable here.

In this way, those girls seemed to be worried about wronging their masters, and they wanted the whole house to be torn down and rebuilt......

Fortunately, the boy was not bored when he was waiting, and there was a beautiful woman's slender hand to twist up a small and delicate plum blossom cake, dried cherries and other dried fruit snacks, and send them to his mouth.

Before Grandpa Guo entered the house, he motioned for Gu Wan to stay, and she simply followed behind her eldest brother, watching with interest as the beautiful maid tossed things down from the gorgeous carriage.

There were forty-eight boxes of clothing alone.

A few maids erected a tent in the large courtyard that was as white as snow, took out the master's clothes, and burned them with incense again...... Then one by one, it was retracted into the box again.

Gu Wan counted silently, stunned, there were at least fifty moon-white robes, brocade robes and ribbons, snow-white mink cloaks, more than a dozen gold-inlaid and jade-encrusted hair crowns, and a hundred and ten pairs of expensive shoes and socks......

In this way, the house-like carriage is not too big!

"Now everyone knows, why is this person still graceful after such a long journey, dressed in white?"

The young man who claimed to be surnamed Mu walked out slowly, and at some point, he actually walked up to Gu Anran and Gu Wan, and said with a smile, "Whoever brings a change of clothes that can't be worn for three or five years, and when he arrives on the ground, there are beauties waiting to bathe and incense, and he can always maintain the perfect image of the noble son......

Hearing this, Gu Wan and Gu Anran both withdrew their gazes and saluted, the young man's eyes showed a little smile, his face was kind, and his eyes were very clear, Gu Wan felt that everyone would feel very relaxed in front of such a person.

When the bathtub sprinkled with flower petals was finally cleaned up and placed in the guest room, the aristocratic boy squinted at his companion, and as if he had not heard his words, he entered the room and closed the door generously.

The guest surnamed Mu shook his head, and smiled helplessly at Gu Wan and Gu Anran: "Don't mind, he is poor and exquisite, once this kid invited guests in Jiangnan Juying Building, I didn't sleep all night, traveled hundreds of miles, and worked hard to go to the banquet, as a result, the signature dish came up, this kid had to invite the chef Fang Xiang of the Juying Building to the front of the hall, and asked the names of the dishes one by one, and listened to the explanation of the chef, while chanting poems against him, pretending to be a celebrity, thinking that my stomach was empty like a drum, looking at the delicious food with all the color and flavor but couldn't put my mouth down... … I wish I could cut that guy's tongue so he couldn't speak again......"

"Flutter." Gu Wan was amused and covered her mouth with a smile.

The unhappiness hidden in Gu Anran's heart was also swept away.

Gu Wan stared at this son surnamed Mu, although he was a teenager, his body had already grown, and he inadvertently revealed a restrained elegance between a man and a teenager...... This is a witty and humorous language, a gentle smile, cheerful and kind young man, but he always feels that his cheerfulness has hidden worries, there is a kind of vicissitudes that have precipitated the years, looking at the eyes of brocade clothes, jewelry and jade, dried fruits and snacks, there is always a little inexplicable sadness......

Gu Wan has seen such a gaze, in the past, every time her uncle participated in a famous banquet, he was like this, and even more desolate.

I vaguely know what my uncle and his old man are thinking - when the famous dignitaries taste the slightly inferior tea, they feel aggrieved, and they feel that chicken, duck, fish and other things are vulgar, and they love porridge and side dishes, but what about the people who have lost their homes in the turbulent times......

What's even more contradictory and tangled is that the person who makes such an exclamation only sighs one or two, he himself is also raised by Jinshan Yinhai, a noble and noble son, he also loves fine wine, good food, likes to listen to elegant music, goes in and out of the group of servants, and is proud of the family that gave him all this!

Most of the people who are truly displaced are desperate to survive, and where can they have the time to think about propositions that even the smartest people in the world can't think through......

Occasionally, those who feel that the world is unfair are either cynical and still go back to be a little person who works hard to survive, or find a way to enter the upper class of society and turn over to change their fate...... The change of dynasty comes from this.

This is only a change in the identity of a small number of people, and the gap between the rich and the poor still exists.

Gu Wan lowered her head, she is not a daughter who doesn't know the hardships of the world, she has endured hardships, but she is just an ordinary woman who doesn't understand what men think...... She only wants to save her family in the troubled times, and she doesn't want her own, her relatives, to become dust in the world.

"Hiss ......"

A sound of horses woke Gu Wan from her inexplicable thoughts, she turned her head suddenly, and saw that the thin earthy yellow horse had left the stable at some point and was rampage in the yard......

"Hey, my guy must be too crowded."

The young man surnamed Mu stepped forward with his hands behind his back, grabbed the reins with one hand, hugged the horse's neck, and muttered in the horse's ear in a low voice, while leading it to the backyard.

Gu Wan was speechless, and the little worry that just came out flew away - this thin horse occupied the backyard of Grandpa Guo's house alone, and squeezed the other four BMWs to Guo Gui's house next door, and he was not satisfied!

The temperament of the horse and the owner are also too different.

It was busy until it was dark, and the carriage and horse personnel settled down, Guo Yuzhu took the time to come over and whispered to Gu Wan: "Wan Niang, Miss Jiao Xing told me just now that she wants to find two people to go to the kitchen to help, you and Sister-in-law Wang go, they have prepared their own food, and there is a car to transport grain behind, so we don't have to worry about food......

"Don't be afraid, noble people, where are you willing to eat our countrymen's coarse tea and light rice, our precious food, we don't even know it, let alone do it, it is estimated that you will be asked to light the fire, or make some food for those who are soldiers, but you still have to be careful...... I think Xiao Chaoyi is respectful to that son, as long as he gets a few good words from the nobles, we can pass the hurdle of Guojiatun......"

Gu Wan was stunned, and finally figured out why Grandpa Guo was so enthusiastic, and knew that he was helping his own family, although it was not easy to serve the nobles, but Guo Yuzhu was old, had rich experience, and still had the ability to see people - these two have noble identities and good hearts, even if their own family makes a mistake, they will not care about ordinary people, but if they really fall into the eyes of each other, even if they say a few good words at will, they may be able to save their lives at critical moments!

Although Gu Anran was not very happy to let his sister go to cook for others, but Grandpa Guo's kindness, their brother and sister had to appreciate it.

Fortunately, although the noble man has a very heavy habit of being a gentleman, his maidservants and subordinates are all polite and polite, Gu Wan is young, they only coax her to play, and don't let her really do the rough work of chopping wood and burning fire......
