Chapter 195: Thoughts
Chapter 195 Thoughts
After only one night in Gu Yu's place, everyone hurriedly went back, and Gu Yu kept them for a few more days.
"Although I am worried about family affairs, but the matter has come to this point, I still have to be relieved, the scenery here in Yangzhou is very good..."He said respectfully.
Gu Changchun shook his head and thanked him for his kindness.
"One is that the clan is in an eventful time, and there are many things to deal with, and the other is that you should also avoid the limelight at this time, so as not to attract people to attack...", he said seriously.
Gu Yu nodded with a smile.
"I'll stay..."Huang Shiying, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke.
Everyone was a little surprised, this time they came to Yangzhou to see Gu Shen'an, there was no her, she took the initiative to come, although she was a woman, but she had a high rank in the clan, and she was Gu Yu's heir, so it was not an exaggeration, after coming, she had been sitting quietly among the crowd, and basically did not say a few words from beginning to end.
Everyone's eyes turned to Gu Yu.
"That's great." Gu Yu said with a smile, a little joy appeared on his face.
"In that case, then during the New Year, your mother and son will come back as companions." Gu Changchun smiled, arched his hand at the two, and got into the car.
Watch as several carriages go away with the support of the servants.
"Mother, it's windy, go back." Gu Yu bowed down and said.
The snow particles came down again at some point, and he took the green cloth umbrella in the maid's hand and held it up for Huang Shiying.
Huang Shiying nodded, stepped into the door, Gu Yu was half a step behind her, and followed slowly.
There are a few plum trees planted in the corner of the mansion, which have bloomed a lot at this time, and in the zero snow, it looks fresh and eye-catching.
Huang Shiying suddenly stopped, "Yu'er, that plum blooms well..."
"If Mother likes it, let the girl break a few sticks and stick them in the house to enjoy." Gu Yu said with a smile.
The girl next to her responded.
Huang Shiying smiled, looked at him, but did not speak.
The cold wind blew, raising Gu Yu's black hair, the hair was spread out on the side of his face, lined with a pair of cold black eyes, as always, he would have a gentle smile on his face, but this smile would never reach the bottom of his eyes.
"Mother?" Gu Yu asked with a smile, not feeling the slightest discomfort from her gaze.
"Yu'er will be eighteen years old during the New Year..."Huang Shiying said with a smile, "It's really fast, when I saw the plum blossoms, I thought of writing in our Meilin snow..."
"Young and abrupt, my mother smiled." Gu Yu said with a smile.
Huang Shiying shook his head, with a bit of approval, "No, you are very good." ”
Gu Yu smiled, bowed slightly, and changed his hand to hold the umbrella.
"Mother, there is also a good plum forest by the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou, and when the snow falls, I will take my mother to enjoy the plum blossoms." He smiled as he stretched out his hand to ask.
Huang Shiying nodded and continued to move forward.
"Count the plum blossom heaven and earth spring, and want to ask the antecedents about the peel back..."She read slowly, while looking at Gu Yu, "Yu'er, do you know whose poem this is?" ”
"Huanzhong has its own inheritance, and the four seas are the guests of honor..."Gu Yu said with a smile, "It's Mr. Baiyuan's plum blossom poem..."
"Yu'er is well-read and strong..."Huang Shiying nodded in approval, and then read softly, "The gate of heaven is open for eternity, and a few people return... In fact, people are born with suffering, whether they are suffering or happiness, and they are smelting the Fa-rectification... Whoever is right and who is wrong, who is the master of ups and downs, each has its own cause and effect..."
"Yes, my mother has understood it..."Gu Yu said with a smile.
Stopping in front of the door, the two girls opened a thick felt curtain, and the warm fragrance came to their faces.
"Yu'er..."Huang Shiying stopped and turned his head to look at Gu Yu, "Shen'an's matter, is it really unsolvable?" ”
There was a wry smile on the corner of Gu Yu's mouth, "This, I really don't know..."
Huang Shiying looked at him a few times.
"Okay, go to the yamen, you are young, do more." She whispered.
"Yes, the child is gone." Gu Yu bowed down and said, slowly retreating.
"Madame, go in." The maid whispered.
Huang Shiying nodded, and looked at the courtyard again, Gu Yu had disappeared at the door.
"After all, the young master is only an official, and the adult has been an official for so many years and can't extricate himself....." The personal maid whispered.
Huang Shiying took the hot tea she was holding, and her expression was a little complicated.
"I always think...," she whispered, and she felt a little unsure of what to say, so she had to laugh at herself, "Let's see....I hope I'm wrong...."
Jiankang, Gu Changchun and his entourage rumbled past the street when the carriage rumbled, Gu Leshan stood by the door on crutches and listened.
"It's back," he muttered to himself, "it's bad luck, how can one thing happen after another..."
After listening for a while, he turned around and came back.
He has been recuperating at home for a few days, but the whole person is still like taking off a layer of skin, and he can get out of bed in the past few days, walking back and forth on crutches, and Gu Long's throat-breaking scolding came from the yard next door.
scolded the profiteers, scolded the king of Yan, scolded the county, scolded the foreman, scolded Gu Yu.....
"This son of a!" Gu Leshan frowned, muttered dissatisfiedly, and when he saw Guo Shi coming in with tears in his eyes, he suddenly shouted, "Let this son of a son give me some peace!"
"What's wrong with Taki'er? One of his legs was almost broken..."Guo retorted with tears, "What? Scold your old man and son a few words, and you can't stand it? If it weren't for the uselessness of your old son, your father and son would be like this....."
Speaking of this, Gu Leshan was actually full of complaints in his heart, so he had to pause with hatred.
"It's better than this crap anyway! The patriarch can be the patriarch, isn't it because he has a first-class son..."He snorted, and smugness appeared on his face again, "It seems that in the future, this position will be our turn....."
Guo Shi sneered, there is really nothing to say to say it, although he doesn't want to admit it, but it is undeniable that Gu Yu's future future is unlimited.
"!" Gu Long's scolding suddenly came over at this time.
Gu Leshan's face turned blue with anger, and he walked over there after a pause, "Brute, who are you scolding!"
Gu Long was lying on the bed, scolding, the porcelain pieces on the ground were broken, and the little girls were busy cleaning up with their heads down.
"Scold that white-eyed wolf!" Gu Long was not timid at all, and shouted at the top of his voice.
"You!" Gu Leshan glared, and before he could shout, he was interrupted by Gu Long's loud voice.
"He must have hurt us this time! Dad, you still don't believe it!" Gu Long shouted, clenching his fists and smashing the side of the bed, "It must be him!" He deliberately didn't help! He deliberately told us to go to Yangzhou! It's all him! He wants to kill us! He's always wanted us to die!"
Gu Leshan trembled with anger when he heard this, and he raised the crutch in his hand and was about to hit it, but he was hugged by Guo Shi crying.
"Beat me to death, save your good son and bother..."Gu Long stiffened his neck and did not admit his mistake at all.
was making a lot of trouble, and the little guy outside hurriedly sent the news about Gu Xi'er, which made the trouble end.
"Come on, go and bring this slut back to me!" Gu Leshan listened to the news sent by the Cao family, and once again paused angrily, "I'm going to give her to the silk merchant for nothing!" Unfilial son! It's so far for my family!"
Little guys, you look at me, I look at you, I can't tell how credible what my master said.
"Don't go yet!" Gu Leshan is really here, glaring and shouting.
"Wait!" Guo Shi, who was looking down at the letter on the side, said fiercely, and waved his hand at the little guys, "Go down."
"You're used to it again...."Gu Leshan shouted angrily.
"Sir!" Guo raised the letter in his hand and said meaningfully, "This is a letter written by Miss Luoer.....
Gu Leshan was stunned for a moment, and then snorted, "She? Do? ”
Guo Shi glanced at the little guys in the hall, Gu Leshan pulled his face and waved his hand, and the little guys lowered their heads and retreated.
"Master, you know about that girl, right? No mistakes, not a lot of words," Guo said in a low voice.
"Which one?" Gu Leshan was silent.
"Eighteen Niang" Guo said, "she is going to be selected for the East Palace...."
"Just her?" Gu Leshan sneered, "Just you women listen to the wind is rain.....
"Luo'er said..."Guo Shi lowered his voice and made a fist gesture at Gu Leshan.
Gu Leshan was slightly surprised, "It's really foolproof.....
"Don't forget, their family met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when they were in Xianren County..... Guo Shi glanced at the letter in his hand again, and a trace of contempt and envy flashed on his face, "You don't know that girl's methods......hum....maybe you ..... hum at that time..."
The rest of the words involved His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Guo Shi finally didn't dare to say it rashly, only muttered hateful words over and over again in his heart.
"That's it..."Gu Leshan finally believed, his face flickered, "What does Luo'er mean..."
"Luo'er said, now that her father has an accident, and Gu Yu is still young and young, our Gu family is only afraid that it will be difficult for a few days, at this time, staying in the East Palace is a great joy for our Gu family...."Guo said in a low voice.
"Counting on that family?" Gu Leshan sneered, "That family is cold-faced and cold-hearted, and they can even ignore the New Year's sacrifice to their ancestors, for our Gu family, it's just a ceremony to eliminate the clan......"
"So!" Guo Shi glared at him, "I want Luo'er to stay in the capital and take the opportunity of that girl to enter the East Palace in the future!"
"That.. Can that be done?" Gu Leshan's heart thumped.
"That's not a bad thing for that girl! Xi'er is as beautiful as a flower, and it is better to have this sister by her side than to be alone in the East Palace....Luo'er said, when the time comes, she will send Xi'er with her as a maid....." Guo Shi chuckled under his breath.
After a period of silence in the house, Gu Leshan's laughter sounded, and the little maids standing in the courtyard looked at each other and lowered their heads at the same time, these days, the family has a changeable temper and moodiness, so it's better to be careful.
Gu Changchun also received the news of Gu Xi'er sent by Gu Leshan not long after, and he sighed with satisfaction about his granddaughter's arrangement.
"Prepare some mountain goods and send them to Miss Luo'er.," he instructed his wife, "and she will not have a good time these days...."
After taking care of the housework, he came to the living room again, summoned the stewards of the family business, ordered to redeem a few sums of silver that Gu Shen'an had handed over, and instructed a few words to be careful and prudent in business, and then let everyone disperse, leaving only the most powerful henchman.
"I'm not here, okay?" After drinking tea and greetings, Gu Changchun asked.
The henchman stood up and said hesitantly, "Everything else is fine... It's just...."
"Just?" Gu Changchun took a sip of tea lightly and asked.
"It's just that there's something wrong with the Qianzhuang Jingcheng Branch...."The henchman hesitated.
Capital? Gu Changchun frowned and put down the teacup.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
