Chapter 42: The Old Affair of Breaking Weapons

As for whether the story is true, she has never set foot in the rivers and lakes, so she has no way to investigate.

When Gu Shiwei had a memory, he was already in the Gu family in Bianjing City, and soon after hearing that his mother gave birth to her, his father received a letter from home, saying that Mrs. Gu was seriously ill and needed him to go home to mourn his filial piety.

It was a particularly glaring afternoon.

She was practicing her sword in the courtyard when a stranger suddenly climbed over the wall, and he looked dusty, and his head was covered with mud and sand. Seeing Gu Younian, he bowed his head, "Those swords are as fragile as paper, they will break when they are touched, the border army will be defeated, and the Izumo Sword Zhuang Zuo clan will all be put in prison......"

It was the first time Gu Shiwei saw her mother, who could open mountains and split rocks with one palm, was as fragile as the shell on the outside of the longan stem, and it would shatter when touched.

Izumo Kensho is a sect of rivers and lakes, and it has never had anything to do with the imperial court, which is well water and does not interfere with river water.

It is precisely because Zuo Tang married into the Gu family that there are inextricable connections, and there is the matter of Izumo Sword Village casting swords for the imperial court.

Gu Shiwei didn't know why for a while, but he only knew that his family had been in chaos for a while, his father and mother were running for the weapon case, and Chengming Yuan was no longer a quiet place to practice swords, and there were always many strangers in and out.

It was the first time she had time alone with no supervision.

It was then that she saw the painting with the mark of a bird in her father's study.

It was also at that time that she saw Chen Shenji under the pear blossom tree.

She thought it would be over soon, but it was just the beginning of her becoming a loner.

On the first rainy day after that day, the pear blossoms were knocked to the ground and melted into the muddy water.

Gu Shiwei clearly remembered that she practiced light skills alone in the courtyard, she deliberately wore a pair of soft-soled thin shoes that can only be worn indoors, and walked in the rain in the courtyard.

She was very patient and tried over and over again.

The soles of my shoes were soaked, so I took off my shoes and tried them barefoot.

Father and mother came back, if it was the same as before, the two of them would definitely fall from the sky with bad intentions, deliberately scared her to the ground, and then the two of them stood aside together and laughed at her with their waists crossed hahaha.

But that day was not, the mother Zuo Tang covered her stomach and smiled, but her face was preoccupied.

"Shiwei, come here, your father bought you a soup dumpling, and it's still hot! It was raining today, and I happened to buy a rabbit at the market. Your grandfather and uncle are all right, and the armament is not their fault, but it was dropped in the middle of the way. ”

Zuo Tang has a hearty temperament, and he did not hide anything from Gu Shiwei because of her young age.

She smiled and beckoned to Gu Shiwei, waited for her to come over, and gently patted the water droplets on her head.

"And ......," she said, glanced at Gu Younian, and said with some melancholy, "Your father is going to enter the palace to be an official, have you heard of it?" He is the most powerful guard with a knife around the official family. ”

"The prestige of your father's first fierce sword is well known to everyone in the world, and even the officials praise him as a genius, and they want to reward him for being a big official."

Gu Shiwei raised his eyes and looked at Gu Younian, and shook his head, "Didn't Daddy say that when my younger brother is born older, our family of four will leave the Gu family and travel to the rivers and lakes?" Why are you going to be an official in the imperial court again? ”

Gu Younian is a natural ranger, an eagle flying high in the endless sky, he is still unwilling to be detained in the Gu family, how can he go to the deep palace to be controlled?

"Since that batch of ordnance was dropped, who was it dropped? Who took away the sword that my grandfather had refined? ”

"Who made the sword that looks very good, but breaks at the touch of it? The Izumo Kensho sword has a mark on it, and does that fake one have it on it? ”

"Why would they go to such lengths to do this? What good will it do my grandfather and them to death? ”

She can't remember how her father fooled her at the time.

She didn't get any answers, and parents fooling their children were about natural talent.

The case of breaking weapons passed in such a blur, and Izumo Kenzhuang retired from the rivers and lakes and never forged swords again.

It wasn't until many years later that she realized that the family might have been in the bureau for a long time......

Gu Shiwei sorted out the old things, withdrew her gaze from the pile of tablets in the Chen family, she bowed deeply, then restored the mechanism in the latrine, and locked the door, before picking up the wooden box and speeding out of here.

……

When I got back to Mulberry Lane, it was late at night again.

Because Renyazi sent the handlebar Zhang Quan today, and the rough woman Lin Pozi came over, the yard was a lot more lively and tidy, and it looked like a home.

Shili heard footsteps and walked up quickly, followed by a little girl who looked twelve or thirteen years old.

Seeing that Gu Shiwei was wearing the imperial city official uniform, the girl was startled, and hid behind ten miles and looked at her curiously.

Shili immediately turned his head to look at the little baby, and said with a smile, "My seventeenth mother is back, Tang Yingling will go home first, and I will teach you to settle accounts tomorrow." ”

Gu Shiwei remembered what Shili said to her, the Tang Zhutou family on the opposite side only had an only daughter, and wanted to go to the Qian Zhuang in Mingjing Lane as an apprentice.

That's the one in front of me.

Thinking of Mingjing Lane, Gu Shiwei envied Mrs. Wang's money again!

How can the gold gap between people be so big from nothing to countless!

Tang Ying nodded, jumped out from behind Shili, her eyes widened, and she asked with some curiosity, "Can a woman also enter the Imperial City Division as an official?" ”

"Women also have two arms and two legs, why can't they enter the Imperial City Division as an official? Aren't you going to Spiegel Lane to be a female bookkeeper? ”

Tang Ying was stunned for a moment, and nodded heavily, "Hmm! ”

As she spoke, she ran away and rushed to the other side.

Seeing this, Shili stepped forward and closed the door, "Seventeen Niang coughed today?" Have you eaten pear paste candy? Tonight I prepared loquat lily white fungus soup, which is still hot. Tang Ying has to help her aunt do things during the day, and she only has time at night, so I will let her come early tomorrow so as not to cause trouble to the girl. ”

Gu Shiwei made a bitter face, and nodded at Zhang Quantong and Mrs. Lin, who were honest and respectful next to him.

They were selected by her from Renyazi, and they have no other advantages, that is, they are loyal and loyal, not such sneaky and slippery materials.

"In the future, I will listen to the ten-mile arrangement."

The house was burning warm, and Shili was afraid that she would be cold, so he burned several charcoal pots in the house.

Gu Shiwei sat down in front of the bookcase, picked up the pen, followed his memory, and drew on the paper the pattern of the birds he saw in the study that day.

Seeing that she was busy, Shili stopped talking, only turned on the lamp a little, and went to the kitchen to serve white fungus soup again.

Gu Shiwei drew several pictures in a row, and finally drew the most satisfactory one.

Just as he was holding it in his hand and admiring it, he heard the sound of Shili putting down the big sea bowl, "Seventeen Niang hasn't practiced swords recently, has she changed her drawing?" Not to mention, my family's seventeen mothers are extremely talented, no matter what they learn, they learn quickly! This talisman is very clever at first glance! ”
