Chapter 192: Torn
Chapter 192: Torn
Gu Changchun's convoy went straight to Yangzhou, Yangzhou was not too far from Jiankang, and Guo was anxious to go, so he soon entered Yangzhou City.
Looking at the majestic and luxurious mansion in front of him, Gu Changchun, who had seen the mansions of the important ministers in Beijing, couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time, a sense of pride rose in his heart.
This mansion is the first champion of his Gu family, and the second important minister of the court in the future, Gu Yu.
Gu Yu, after two years of training, finally got an official position commensurate with his champion status, Yangzhou Mansion observed the promotion of officials, and the most important thing is that the Yangzhou Governor was also transferred before he was transferred, and there was no suitable person to fill it, so this Yangzhou Mansion can be regarded as his promotion official in addition to the same knowledge.
For this young magistrate who suddenly arrived, Yangzhou Tongzhi has obviously been mentioned, and he has a good attitude towards Gu Yuna, and personally arranged this mansion that originally belonged to the former Yangzhou prefect.
Guo Shi lifted the curtain in the car, looking at the house, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
At this time, the door was wide open, and Gu Yu, who was wearing a royal blue cotton robe and a pair of black-faced cotton boots, hurriedly greeted him and paid homage to Gu Changchun.
"Don't be polite......" Gu Changchun saw that he was so respectful, and his heart was comfortable, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him.
"That's how it should be...."Gu Yu replied respectfully, stretching out his hand to ask, "Patriarch please...."
Gu Changchun nodded, looked at the people with goose wings lined up twice, and shouted the patriarch grandfather in unison, and the hot feeling spread from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, good," he nodded and took Gu Yu's hand and stepped forward.
Outside the door, Guo was left alone in the carriage.
"Madame..."The little girl timidly got out of the car and reached out to help her.
This little bunny... I thought that I was not as good as a dog in front of me, but now I don't see her in my eyes.
Guo scolded hatefully in his heart, but he couldn't, firstly, Gu Yu's identity in the clan was much higher than her, and second, now that people were in official positions, it was no longer something she could accuse casually.
"Madame, please...."Four or five beautiful maids rushed over in unison and saluted Guo's family.
Guo Shi was a little more comfortable at this time, hummed, and raised his hand to follow them.
The prefect-level hall is extraordinary, and the four smoking cages in the house smoke the room warmly.
The three of them sat down indoors, Gu Yu first greeted the Gu family, and then recounted many miscellaneous matters since taking office, and finally when introducing them to the Longjing tea in front of Mingqian, Guo couldn't help but interject.
“… Brother Yu, what are you going to do about your father and your brother? She asked straight to the point.
Gu Changchun glanced at the Guo family with a little dissatisfaction, but thinking that this incident was really a big trouble, and it would be difficult to discredit their entire clan, so he also asked: "Yes, Brother Yu, the county order of Gaoyou has already locked them up, how can it go on like this?" ”
Gu Yu nodded, "I already know, I've already asked someone to take care of it..."
"Care?" Guo said, "Still care? Quickly release them, and then ask the Gaoyou County Commander to kowtow and make amends..."
Gu Yu's gaze fell on her for the first time, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Madam, you don't know who the Gaoyou County Order is, right? There are not many mistakes," he said, and looked at Gu Changchun again, "Gaoyou County Ling Ning Zide, who was nicknamed Ning Thorn, dared to stand outside Lord Zhu's door and scold as a scholar..."
"I know this...."Gu Changchun nodded, saying that there was a notorious Lord Zhu in the dynasty, but because of this, many famous ministers have already scolded the traitorous party and made a name for themselves in prison, of course, they all survived.
This Ning Zide is a tribute of the Heavenly Sage for three years, and he is still mixed in the position of the Qipin County Order, which can be regarded as the price paid for the scolding back then, even so, the jealous and hateful temperament has never changed, and this person strictly abides by the law and denies himself and serves the public without finding a single mistake.
"Besides, this incident is also Daddy's unreasonableness..."Gu Yu smiled bitterly, "It's okay for others, it's okay to be a little ** mouth, it's just this...."
Gu Changchun was silent, this even a first-class official dared to scold, Gu Yu, a little pusher, if he didn't take care of it, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to move.
"Why did your dad lose his reason? One didn't steal or two rob, what he did was a legal and reasonable deal, and it was all the profiteer who deliberately made things difficult," Guo snorted and said.
Since learning that Gu Yu was transferred to Yangzhou, such a prosperous place is full of money, Gu Leshan has naturally expanded his business, and has his own son as a backer, Gu Leshan just doesn't want to go sideways and has to go sideways, not to mention, he didn't do anything illegal and undisciplined in the township, but it was a legal business to buy and sell silk.
"Of course it's legal...."Gu Yu nodded, "It's just that when people sell the goods, my father can't help but give money, this... It's really unreasonable...."
A few months ago, the newly opened branch of the Gu family Bao Dechang silk shop in Yangzhou snatched a large amount of silk brocade from a high-ranking silk brocade merchant, and the price is very cost-effective, of course, this process must be carried out of the Gu family's backer, Gu Shen'an, a big man far away in the capital, and the old 2 Gu Yu in Yangzhou in front of him, but it is not an exaggeration to say in detail, which is not a big backer behind the big business.
"Dad is very satisfied with the price of this batch of goods..."Gu Yu said lightly.
Gu Changchun obviously knew it, coughed, and changed the topic: "Regardless of this, I already know, this time your father is really wronged, the rule has always been that the payment is divided into three times, and the last payment will be paid in the next year, who thinks that he will make a fuss about the full payment on the same day, this is not in accordance with the rules...."
Gu Yuen sighed and nodded, "Okay, I'll go and tell Lord Ning about it..."
Guo also wanted to say that he was glared at by Gu Changchun, and watched Gu Yu call a long follower, and whispered a few words, and the long went casually.
Half a day later, the person came back and brought a very happy reply from Ningzhi County, it was natural to repay the debt, and implied that the plaintiff said that he was coerced to sell at such a low price, and he would take the money and release him, otherwise he would not be able to talk, he didn't mind coming over to listen to the instructor and instructor, and there happened to be some things to ask for advice.
"This mallet" Guo gritted his teeth angrily, glanced at Gu Yu, and sneered, "Brother Yu is so young that he can't even hold a small county magistrate....Grandpa, let's tell the adults in the capital...."
Gu Changchun frowned, this was really a trivial matter in his eyes, and he couldn't alarm Jingli's son at all.
"And Lord Ning said that they repaired the embankment in Gaoyou County today, so all the prisoners in the prison went to repair the embankment except for the felons..."Chang Sui said again.
This time, Guo Shi couldn't stand at all, repairing the river embankment? That's a tiring life, not to mention that now it's cold and frozen, repairing the river embankment is obviously tortured in disguise, how could this living king of Hades bump into such a person, I'm afraid that Gu Leshan and Gu Long will not be human at the end of the day, this back and forth to send a letter to the capital, even if they let go, the father and son are afraid that they can't stand it.
"Then give money" Gu Changchun said, after weighing the pros and cons, I feel that I can't let Gu Yu, who has just taken office, be discredited, to put it mildly, Gu Yu let Yangzhou go, Gu Shen'an also disagreed, although Yangzhou is a good place, but because it is a good place, it is difficult to make political achievements, the rich businessmen here are entrenched, and the relationship behind it is complicated, so He An's stable pension is not suitable for career experience, for Gu Yu, an official who is young and seeks a greater future in the future, it is better to go to the land of poor mountains and bad waters.
"Grandpa..."Guo Shi shuddered unconsciously when he heard this.
"You don't lack that money." Gu Changchun looked at her and frowned, looking at Guo's appearance, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, "How much?" ”
Taking care of the scale of the Leshan silk shop, it is enough to buy a thousand horses at most, and this time it is said that it is an ultra-low price, and it is only two thousand taels of silver to survive.
Guo's lips trembled, and he slowly spit out a few words, "One hundred thousand taels...."
“?” Gu Changchun was shocked, "One hundred thousand taels? You... You guys... Are you crazy? It's a low price of 40 taels per catty, which is enough to have 25,000 catties of silk brocade."
"Grandpa, a lot of orders have been released, and after the New Year, the money will be recovered..."Guo Shi said timidly with a white face, "And, moreover, I am going to become a family with that merchant, I didn't expect... I didn't expect that..."
When she said this, she suddenly thought of it and looked at Gu Yu, "Brother Yu, Xi'er hid from you, right?" No mistakes, a lot of words, let her come out and see me..."
"Xi'er?" Gu Yu frowned and shook his head, "No, she hasn't been here, isn't she in Jiankang?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.
Guo Shi sighed, and couldn't help but sit on the ground in a panic, "My Xi'er... Oh my God, where is this going."
It turned out that it was so cheap and so bold, because he relied on his son and sold his daughter, Gu Changchun glared at Guo Shi angrily, and even hid it from himself, only saying that Gu Yu had a grudge against them and his wife, and he didn't help to protect him, so he coaxed himself to come
"You... You guys are really..."Gu Changchun couldn't wait to raise his feet and kick, "I don't care"
Just shake it off and leave.
100,000 taels of silver, which could not be made up in a few days, Guo Shi reached out and hugged Gu Changchun's leg, crying and begging.
"Madam..."Gu Yu knelt down and stretched out his hand to help her, "Don't worry about money, just make it up, I have it here..."
"Yes, you have, then why don't you go and get the money to save your father" Guo Shi glared at him angrily.
The richest person in the He clan is his adoptive mother.
"You have money" Gu Changchun coughed and glared at Guo, "Let's take it from Qianzhuang first..."
The biggest industry in the Gu family is Qianzhuang, which has grown step by step with Gu Shen'an.
Guo breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the public was willing to help the emergency, then they didn't have to go bankrupt.
"Thank you, grandpa... We'll make up this money in a year...."Guo Shi stood up and lowered his head and said, while shaking off Gu Yu's hand to support him, he glared at him with indignation, this little white-faced white-eyed wolf, really can't count on it, and he is as proud as a treasure for his own master.
Gu Yu just smiled and looked away without care.
"Where will Xi'er go? She is a girl's family, how can this be good, you quickly ask someone to find it" Guo Shi thought of his daughter and rubbed his hands anxiously, looked at Gu Yu and said.
"Yes..."Gu Yu replied respectfully, thinking for a while, "Will Xi'er go to the capital?" ”
Xi'er has a good relationship with Gu Luo'er, and if such a big thing happens this time, she must be looking for Gu Luo'er to support her.
"To the capital? So far away, she... She... But it's so bold" Guo Shi was even more frightened, originally thought that she heard that her relatives would go to Gaoyou to make trouble with her father, and finally ask Gu Yu for help, after all, she has also walked a few times on this side of the road, and went to the capital....
Along the way, a girl's house....Guo's feet went limp, and he sat on the ground again.
"Crying, crying, blame everyone for your daily pride and her habit of being so lawless" Gu Changchun shouted, watching Gu Yu bend over to persuade him, but was pushed away by Guo's indignation, and was even more annoyed, "Yu'er, leave her alone"
Guo didn't dare to make any more trouble, so he hid his face and cried.
"It's already like this, send someone to find it all the way..."Gu Changchun said, while raising his feet and walking out, "I'll go get the money, I'll get these troubles soon."
Guo Shi didn't dare to stay, he hurriedly got up and followed, looking at the backs of the two, the smile on the corner of Gu Yu's mouth, who had always been pleasant, became even stronger.
Know clearly? No, this is just the beginning.
When the snow stopped, the gate of the Gu family opened, and the two little servants held brooms and brushes to sweep the snow, and a carriage stopped.
"Mademoiselle is back." The little servant recognized the carriage, hurriedly stopped, and ran over to meet it.
Gu Banniang, who was wearing a red hooded cloak, helped Lingbao's men get out of the carriage, and before she left, she heard another carriage rumbling and stopped in front of the door.
The master and servant turned their heads to look and saw that it was Xin Chaoyang walking down in his clothes.
"Gu Niangzi...."He called with a smile.
Gu Bainiang glanced at him coldly, and her footsteps did not stop and went inward.
"You're going to do it?" Lingbao stepped forward to stop him and shouted.
"Please take a step to speak." Xin Chaoyang still said with a smile, looking at Gu Ba Niang.
Gu Banniang turned her head, "I'm sorry, I don't plan to sell medicine to your family." ”
"It's not that I asked Gu Niangzi to make a pharmaceutical." Xin Chaoyang said with a smile.
"So what do we have to say?" Gu Banniang said.
"Are we tearing our faces?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Xin Chaoyang asked with a smile.
Gu Bainiang glanced at him.
"Since we've torn our faces, let's sit down and talk about it." Xin Chaoyang smiled, and walked past her to the door first.
"This person" Lingbao was angry.
In the snow shelter in the small garden, Lingbao put down a pot of tea heavily.
Xin Chaoyang didn't care, took it from himself, looked at Gu Bainiang, who was sitting down opposite with an indifferent face, his eyes turned on her face, and he smiled suddenly.
"It's the first time I've sat down and drank tea with you like this." He said, pushing a cup of tea to Gu Bainiang, "Please." ”
Gu Bainiang nodded, "Yes, it's the first time I've seen the eldest young master so cheeky." ”
Xin Chaoyang laughed, "Each other, if you and I weren't cheeky, we wouldn't have gotten along so happily with a hypocrisy and a fake at the beginning." ”
"Everyone gets their own benefits, and naturally they get along very well." Gu Bainiang replied.
"Yes, if I don't say a few words that day, you and I will have at least one more plate of dried fruits in front of us today...."Xin Chaoyang smiled, looking at the table with only one teapot and two cups.
"Yes, it's a pity that what you said is no longer if, but fact." Gu Bainiang nodded.
"Yes, the facts are the facts, and there is nothing to regret and blame." Xin Chaoyang smiled and raised his teacup, "Please." ”
Gu Bainiang raised her glass and touched him.
"Actually, you're not wrong to do this, I don't blame you." Gu Banniang said.
"Yes, I know, it's not wrong for Gu Niangzi to push me like this, if you feel uncomfortable, you have to pretend to be generous." Xin Chaoyang said.
"Very good, since the eldest young master can afford to put it down, I won't be pretending to be polite," Gu Banniang said with a smile, "From now on, you will never be able to get my Liu's medicine again." ”
Xin Chaoyang nodded and poured himself a drink.
"Actually, I was wrong." He said suddenly.
Gu Bainiang smiled slightly mockingly, "Are you at fault?" Didn't the eldest young master come to do this ridiculous thing of admitting his mistake today? No mistakes, not a lot of words"
"No, no," Xin Chaoyang said, waving his hand, "I made a mistake for not facing my own mind...."
Gu Bainiang did not answer.
"I thought that I was just in business, I didn't want to lose you as a pharmacist, and I had to do everything possible to keep you...."Xin Chaoyang said.
"Isn't it?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Gu Banniang said with a smile.
"It's not." Xin Chaoyang looked at her and replied, "Actually, I don't want to lose you. ”
Gu Bainiang looked at him and didn't speak.
"I said you're really..."Lingbao said with some tears and laughter, raising his eyebrows.
"It's been lost." Gu Bainiang smiled and replied, while getting up, "Although I don't know why the eldest young master came here this time, what I want to say is that first, you and I are not wrong, so there is no mutual forgiveness, so those apologies..." We don't owe each other, each goes its own way, the well water does not interfere with the river water, although it is a little unpleasant, but it is not enough to kill each other... ”
"Eighteen Niang..."Xin Chaoyang looked up at her, "Give me a chance...."
"Still a chance? Why are you so shameless? Lingbao raised his eyebrows and said.
"I regret it, I quit my family, I understand, from now on, I don't calculate half a point for you, you can do what you want, you can supply medicine to whomever you want, smile at me when you're happy, don't smile at me if you're unhappy, I believe it when you say it, I say you don't have to think about it, I tear my face, let you see it really, I'm not begging for your forgiveness, I'm asking you to give me this opportunity, give me a chance to get to know me again, one day, one month, one month, half a year, half a year, two years, two years, a lifetime...." Xin Chaoyang said with plastic surgery.
