Chapter 556: Madame, take a look
Early the next morning, Chen Letian took Gui Zhi to the county Cheng's house.
Along the way, Gui Zhi's nervous hands didn't know where to put them, and he didn't know what to do.
Chen Letian saw that she was so nervous, so he talked to her to relieve her nervousness.
"It's all a trivial matter, you will be a county man in the future, I don't know how many people will envy you. You can also go home to see your family and fellow villagers, and if the folks are in trouble, you can also help a group of folks. How wonderful. Next time I'm here, you'll be able to treat me to a drink at the splendid hotel, don't you say? ”
"Well, good. ”
"In fact, people will encounter many things in their lives, big and small things, happy things, unhappy things, in fact, in the end, they are just floating clouds. It's just a trifle other than life and death. Gui Zhi, oh no, cousin, relax, think about the things that used to make you the most nervous, do you still remember the injuries you suffered when you were seven or eight years old? Surely you have forgotten all about it a long time ago, you just think so, a year later, when you think back to today, will you still feel nervous?"
The best way to comfort a person is to keep her mind thinking about something else without letting her get caught up in the tension or sadness of the moment.
It didn't take long for the two to come to Wei County's house.
Walking into the house, Gui Zhi suddenly had some disobedience in his legs, Chen Letian saw this scene, and had no choice but to grab Gui Zhi's arm and secretly send some true qi to her. When true qi enters the body of ordinary people, it will make ordinary people feel comfortable, as if they have eaten a big tonic pill and are full of energy.
Gui Zhi is not crumbling.
It seems that this person, comfort is useless, you have to figure it out yourself.
Wei Xiancheng and his wife came out together, of course, to greet Chen Letian.
Mrs. took the lead and said: "Chen Gongzi is good, why didn't you eat here yesterday, there is nothing good to eat at home, and there is still coarse tea and light rice." ”
Chen Letian smiled and said: "Madam, you're welcome, I went back to eat delicious food yesterday, Lord Wei is a Qingguan, how can I find the bird's nest shark fin that is delicious." ”
Mrs. smiled: "Chen Gongzi is really good at laughing, then I will ask the kitchen to get some bird's nest shark fin for you today." ”
"That's a good idea, thank you, ma'am. Chen Lotian laughed.
Presumably, Wei County Cheng often said good things about Chen Letian in front of his wife, and in recent days, the three words Chen Letian have been synonymous with great heroes in Shudi, so Mrs. is really willing to get closer to Chen Letian.
Although in terms of age, Chen Letian is their son and nephew, but they regard Chen Letian's future as a bright future for the Great Song Dynasty. Just like Wei Xiancheng and his wife said in private, if the young people of the Great Song Dynasty can be like this, if our sons can also be like this, then why is our Great Song Dynasty not strong.
This power cannot be changed. Any external difficulties, any external blocking forces, cannot and will not be such an opponent of the Great Song Dynasty.
The strength of the Great Song Dynasty can be reflected in the military and the political system, but where does all of the above come from and where does it come from, there is no doubt about it: high-spirited, positive and promising, and young people who care about the people and the country.
When young people are strong, the country can be truly strong, otherwise, all other strong people are paper paste, and they will not last long.
Not much to say.
Madame is not most concerned about Chen Letian, but the woman standing next to Chen Letian.
At a glance, Madame only felt that this woman was average, except that she was a very ordinary woman except for her plump body and fairer skin. Mrs. was quite surprised, she thought that her husband could fall in love with this woman who was already not young, it must be because this woman was beautiful, but she didn't expect that this woman was not beautiful.
Chen Letian gave a brief introduction and said that this is my distant cousin Guizhi, who has been used to living a hard life since she was a child, and it is not easy.
"This sister looks very well-behaved, come, come with me to eat something. Let the two men talk. Madame stretched out her hand and grabbed Gui Zhi, and the two walked to the back.
Gui Zhi followed his wife all the way to the gazebo in the backyard.
"Sit down. The maid brought tea and snacks, and the lady sat down first, and let Guizhi sit too.
"It's good for the slave to stand, thank you, ma'am. Gui Zhi's nervous hands were clenched together, and his back was sweaty and his clothes were stained, and he almost trembled. I still think about what Chen Gongzi said in my mind, and if I look back and think about it a year later, will I still feel nervous about today's events? It's a lot better to think of it that way.
Since he didn't sit down, he didn't force his wife, and asked, "Where is your house?"
"Back to Madame's words..."Gui Zhi stammered and stopped.
"Well, how did you and Master Wei meet, and where did you meet?"
"Mrs. Hui, just... I met in the banquet building, the adults went there to eat, and the slaves and maids served tea and water food to the adults, and they got acquainted. ”
Madame tried not to make her questions sharp, and tried not to embarrass Gui Zhi.
The lady in the backyard was chatting with Gui Zhi.
Wei Xiancheng and Chen Letian in the front yard were also chatting, but there was a man who was very worried about the situation in the backyard.
Of course, this person is Wei Xiancheng, and what Wei Xiancheng is worried about is nothing more than whether his wife will look down on Gui Zhi.
After all, Gui Zhi is just an ordinary woman who can't read big words, and thanks to Chen Letian's blessing, she is recognized by Chen Letian as her cousin, but other than that, she may not even be able to speak, I am afraid that in her world, she never thought that she would one day have the opportunity to be the concubine of his county lord.
In fact, this is the second time Wei Xiancheng has seen Gui Zhi, and the last time has been many years ago. And that time, he drank too much wine in a daze, and he didn't see Gui Zhi much at all when he did that in the dim corner of the backyard. Later, he suddenly woke up, broke out in a cold sweat, and then kept kowtowing to Gui Zhi on the ground to apologize, and in addition to panic, there was only the shame of the scholar, and in the end, he was 'saved' by the county lord in a few words. He never dared to look at Gui Zhi more.
So the image of Gui Zhi in my mind is actually not very clear, and when I think about it later, it is more of an image of a maid, on the path in the courtyard, under the shadows on both sides of the big tree, there is Gui Zhi standing, her face is quite white, but she can't see the specific appearance clearly. What impressed me the most was her low voice trying to restrain her crying, which hammered into his heart like a hammer.
The second time I saw her today, in fact, Wei Xiancheng still only glanced at Chen Letian when he took her into the door, and then he was embarrassed, or he didn't dare to take a second look in front of his wife.
When Chen Letian told him about this before, he wasn't so nervous, but now when he saw Gui Zhi, he felt a little nervous. Maybe it's because in the face of this woman who was hurt by himself, he felt guilty and ashamed in his heart.
