Chapter 217: The Buying and Selling Took the Initiative to Arrive
The front of the Splendid Pavilion is lively all day long, and the laughter inside is always endless.
It was getting late, and the people who came to congratulate them spontaneously left, but Gu Ming stayed.
He first concisely pointed out to Gu Yu the process of tomorrow's palace test and the matters that need to be paid attention to, and only after finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea and said: "You and Ah Jin have done a lot of things these days, just for these reasons, the royal family will not treat you badly." ”
"Tomorrow the palace will test you to be on the list, I will simply tell you more thoroughly, the Gu family has reached the top, your father's position in the court is deep-rooted, and this life has reached the point where there is no promotion, with him, it is not difficult for the rest of the Gu family to start their careers, but it is difficult to go further."
The emperor uses his capable courtiers to solve his own problems, but the emperor does not want his courtiers to be too capable.
Gu Xiangye has gone through the previous emperor and the current majesty, and he is in a high position.
Although he didn't commit any big mistakes, as long as he was there, it would be impossible for the Gu family children to have a second one.
Because in a court, there will not be two weighted Gu family members.
Gu Ming knew that Gu Yu could understand what he meant, so he smiled and said lightly: "Your father is old, it is not inevitable to retreat, but he is unwilling, plus the Gu family has indeed lacked people who can go up in recent years, so slowly the Gu family has become a hall of words, and most of the hopes are placed on Gu Xiuwen." ”
"He is the most important, and he has the highest status among the younger generation of the Gu family, you may not have thought of having more contact with him, but his eyes must have fallen on you."
Gu Xiuwen was born to the current Mrs. Gu, the second son of Gu Xiangye, and Gu Yu's nominal younger brother.
This person has to be taught by Gu Xiangye personally, although he is not very old, he is far superior to his peers in terms of talent and ability.
He is the most suitable successor in Gu Xiangye's heart.
Gu Yu laughed out loud when he heard the meaning of Gu Ming's words, and said unhurriedly: "I know what the third uncle means. ”
Gu Ming patted him on the shoulder earnestly, sighed and said, "It's good if you have a plan in your heart." ”
"In fact, in my opinion, it doesn't matter who is in power and who is in charge, what matters is whether the person in charge has the ability to carry the glory of the family."
"I know that you have no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the Gu family, and you are not interested in the position of the Gu family's ruler, but you still have to have the precautions you should have, because Gu Xiuwen has been able to get to this point not only by your father."
"Okay, I won't say more, you have a good rest, I'll wait for your good news tomorrow."
Gu Ming left slowly, and as soon as he entered the house, someone greeted him and said, "Third master, Xiangye is waiting for you in the study, saying that he invited you to come over and talk." ”
Gu Ming had already guessed that there would be such a coming, and walked towards the study with a snort.
In the study.
Gu Xiangye was writing with his head down, and he didn't look up when he heard Gu Ming come in, and when the last word was finished, he said meaninglessly: "I'm back." ”
"Yes."
Gu Xiangye heard his coldness, put down his pen and said: "Speaking of which, the third brother, you have a vision, and you actually see that Gu Yu is a talent that can be created, but unfortunately, he is too stubborn, and he can't see the long-term when he gets in front of him, and he is not a long-term person." ”
"Why should the third brother pay too much attention?"
Gu Ming is an outlier.
is extremely cold to any junior at home, but it is different for Gu Yu.
Although Gu Yu has not yet returned to the Gu family, everyone knows that he has a good relationship with Gu Ming.
Gu Xiuwen mentioned it today, thinking of the words spread outside, Gu Xiangye's profound eyebrows silently suppressed a little haze, and said in a cold tone: "Since he is arrogant and untamable, he can't look down on the Gu family's court, so it's good to let him fly in the sky, don't worry about him." ”
Gu Xiangye is used to being high.
He thought that he asked Mrs. Gu and the second lady to pick up people in Zhuangzi together, which was already an extra three points for Gu Yu.
Gu Yu was interested in everything, so he should quickly pack up his things and come back, so far he has gathered all the rebellious bones in front of him, and he obeyed his words.
But Gu Yu didn't.
Not only did he not go down the steps, he even refused the marriage of the Lin family, and threw a big mouth on Gu Xiangye's face with his backhand.
This kind of thing is Gu Xiangye's intolerable disobedience.
Seeing that Gu Ming didn't speak, Gu Xiangye's tone was a little impatient, and he said coldly: "I heard your sister-in-law say that the emperor of Zhuangzi also sent someone to pass on the holy decree that day, which you did?" ”
Except for Gu Ming, it can only be Zuo Feng.
can be such a roundabout handwriting, not like Zuo Feng's style.
Hearing the displeasure in his words, Gu Ming couldn't hide his mockery.
He said, "Why does my eldest brother think I did it? ”
"I don't have an official position in the court, and occasionally I enter the palace, all of which rely on the afterglow of the eldest brother and the Gu family, where does the eldest brother think I have such a ability to pave the way for him to say good things in front of the emperor?"
"Besides, why doesn't the eldest brother want to think that the emperor's praise is what Gu Yu deserves? Could it be that in the eyes of the eldest brother, he should be a vulgar and incompetent waste? ”
Gu Xiangye didn't want to think about it and said, "Isn't it?" ”
He had never looked at Gu Yu with a straight eye, and he never felt that Gu Yu had some real talent.
In his eyes, Gu Yu is a waste.
Gu Ming was so angry that he sneered out loud because of his right, and he was too lazy to bother to say anything: "I'm a little tired, so I won't waste my eldest brother's time." ”
"Farewell."
Gu Ming turned around and left.
Gu Xiangye was silent for a long time and then dropped the pen wash on the table.
He wanted to see what Gu Yu was capable of!
The Gu family was silent all night, which was in stark contrast to the joy of the Splendid Pavilion.
Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Yu said goodbye to the division commander and stepped into the palace gate.
Su Jin, who originally thought that he was fine, was also hit by an unexpected surprise.
She looked at the list in front of her in astonishment, and said in surprise: "These are all clothes to be made?" ”
Splendid Pavilion hasn't opened yet, and the business has taken the initiative to come to the door?
The mother-in-law who came to deliver the order smiled like a flower, and said with a smile: "Yes, these are all these." ”
"My little master went back yesterday and told the old lady, only that you took great care of him, and it was just the time to change the summer shirt, so I just took what the family lacked to you to arrange."
"There are many female dependents in the house, and I can't say a word clearly, when you have leisure, it is better to send someone to the house to measure your body, and it is not too late to wait for the ladies in the house to choose the material and style."
The mother-in-law said it lightly, but what she took out was a list of dozens of people.
One person makes three or five pieces, and the sum is more than a hundred.
Su Jin didn't expect to be hit on the head by surprise when he opened the door, pinched his eyebrows and said, "Since there is labor in the house, why wait until another day?" ”
"Winter pear."
"The slave is here."
"You will take the lady of the He family to the Song family's mansion for a walk in a while."
"By the way, when you go, bring the gift I prepared before, and it should be a thought."
In order to open the market in the capital after opening, Su Jin made a lot of preparations in advance.
She personally drew and led someone to make a batch of modified sachets, which can be filled with broken things, compared with the sachets on the market, the style is much more exquisite, and it looks better to put up summer clothes.
Dongli packed up her things and followed her mother-in-law away.
Not long after Su Jin sat down, another guest came.
It's a member of the Bai family.
Jinxiu Pavilion had a quarrel with Baixiufang before, Qiuli and the others were originally worried that Su Jin would get into trouble because of this, but who knew that the head of the Bai family didn't care, and after turning his head to clean up the steward of Baixiufang, he also gave a big gift today.
It is a batch of fine clothing sold to Su Jin at a low price.
Su Jin didn't really want to accept this batch of clothes, but the people who couldn't bear the rumors kept saying that he even moved out of his own young master Bai Xiaowu.
Su Jin knew that this was Bai Xiaowu's kindness, and thought that befriending the Bai family would also be beneficial to Gu Yu's future, so he simply accepted all the materials.
It's just that she didn't accept the low price, but the silver was settled at the price that was sold on the market.
The people of the Bai family went out with a smile on their faces, Su Jin took someone to count the ingredients sent, and just started talking to Qiu Li about what to eat, and the people outside came to talk again.
"Shopkeeper, a guest is coming."
Su Jin raised his eyebrows with a smile, and said with a smile: "What's wrong today?" Do you want to take care of all our work for half a year in the morning? ”
