Chapter 1741: What Happened?
If it was in the past, Gu Chang would definitely have smiled and nodded in response.
He couldn't take care of it today, so he just buried his head in the courtyard of the old lady of the Gu family, his steps were hurried, and he couldn't wait to fly over.
Everyone will smile heartily, everyone knows that the third master is so old, this is his first child, so he is naturally happy.
Gu Chang ran into the courtyard of the old lady of the Gu family, and saw that the people in the courtyard were laughing and laughing, and they were all smiling when they saw him, and the voices of congratulations were endless.
Entering the room, Zhuo Die was surrounded by a large number of people, the old lady was much stronger today than before, she could sit up, half leaning on the pillow, looking at Zhuo Die's stomach, the smile was about to overflow.
Seeing Gu Chang come in, there was only Zhuo Die and her belly in his eyes, looking at the still flat lower abdomen, which gave birth to his own bloodline, this wonderful feeling made Gu Chang couldn't help but have a little red circles in his eyes.
Zhuo Die's heart, after seeing Gu Changqi, it was realized, and the two husbands and wives glanced at each other, and they had countless things to say.
The people present are all human spirits, and they know that the husband and wife have something to say at the moment.
The old lady of the Gu family spoke first: "Okay, this is a great joy for our family." The third family has a body, and the first three months can't be sloppy, but it must be good to give birth and raise. Don't come here these days, I'm sick here, be careful to pass the illness to you. Wait until you're seated and come back. β
"Third child, send your daughter-in-law back quickly, take care of her, don't be angry with her and tired her, you know? If the third family and the child in the womb have a good one, I won't spare you! β
Zhuo Die's face turned red, she was very embarrassed, and wanted to excuse herself: "My mother is sick, how can I be a daughter-in-law and rest at homeββ"
An Shi on the side smiled and said, "Third aunt, don't worry, the ancestor still has us by his side!" The third aunt only takes care of her body, and when the time comes, she will give birth to a big fat grandson to her ancestors, which is the greatest filial piety! β
The eldest lady of the Gu family and the old lady both nodded yes.
Gu Chang knew that the old lady and the eldest lady were really happy for their husband and wife, so he didn't refuse, and only arched his hand at the eldest lady of the Gu family: "Then there is Sister-in-law Lao and a few nephews!" β
He comforted the old lady of the Gu family again: "Don't worry, mother, I'll take your daughter-in-law back first, settle down, and then come over to accompany you!" β
The old lady of the Gu family smiled and waved her hand: "Go, a good student will accompany your daughter-in-law today, don't come over!" Don't forget, send a good message to your in-lawsβ"
Seeing Gu Chang and his wife hand in hand, the old lady of the Gu family couldn't help but pull the eldest lady of the Gu family and said: "I can put down a big stone in my heart, the third child can have today, I can't say that I can still see his child before I close my eyes!" In the future, even if I go, when I get to the bottom, I will be worthy of the ancestors of the Gu family. β
The eldest lady of the Gu family naturally took advantage of the situation to persuade the old lady of the Gu family to take care of her body, but now Gu Chang can wait for him to have a queen, and then work hard, I can't say that I can still see Gu Zikai marrying a wife and having children.
Saying this, it really aroused the ambition of the old lady of the Gu family.
Really work hard, not to mention living to be a hundred years old, she will live correctly for a few more years, watching Gu Zikai marry a wife and have children, and this life will be complete.
In this way, the old lady of the Gu family plucked up her heart.
As soon as the heart is sick, the body gets better day by day.
When Gu Changqing saw it, he was naturally happy in his heart. He was ashamed of himself as a son, and his mother was sick, and he still had to go to court, so he couldn't serve by his side.
Now that I finally took a break, I came to the old lady of the Gu family early in the morning to talk to her.
The old lady of the Gu family also rarely had such a chance to get along with her son, and the mother and son sat together, leaning on the lavender cage, gossiping.
When I get older, I love to remember, starting from when I was a child, for a time it was really a mother and a child, and it was happy.
Just as he was talking about his happiness, he heard someone from outside report that it was the aunt from Chicheng County and the person who gave the New Year's gift to the cousin.
He handed in the list of New Year's gifts.
It stands to reason that such a thing can be handled by the housekeeper in the front yard, and the person who gives the gift will naturally be entertained with good wine and food.
When the New Year's gift is counted, there will definitely be a red envelope reward.
If there is a mother-in-law with the person who comes with them, the wives and grandmothers will definitely meet and ask how the late wife and cousin are doing.
There are two copies of this gift list, one is counted outside, and this one is sent inside.
Now it is all in the hands of An's, and it stands to reason that this list will be sent to her.
However, An is a smart person, and I vaguely heard that the old ancestor was sick, and it was related to the letter written by my aunt and my cousin, and I heard that even my father-in-law and eldest father had it, so naturally I received a New Year's gift from Wang Yongzhu at this moment, so I should be cautious.
Thinking about these days, the ancestor has to say a few words to his aunt and cousin every day, and he misses it very much.
Therefore, after receiving the gift list, I pondered it for a while, and asked someone to send it over, which also meant that the old lady was happy.
Sure enough, as soon as the old lady of the Gu family heard that it was a New Year's gift from Wang Yongzhu and Mrs. Zhang, she immediately became interested.
asked someone to present the gift list, threw it to Gu Changqing, and asked him to read it to himself.
Gu Changqing rarely accompanies his mother-in-law, even if his mother-in-law lets her dress and entertain her relatives at this moment, she has to agree, not to mention just reading a gift list?
I took it with a smile and read it from the beginning.
The gift list should be written by Wang Yongzhu himself, first to greet the Gu family, and then to all kinds of rituals.
Similar to usual, the gifts that Wang Yongzhu is now sending to the capital are just specialties from Chicheng County, and the occasional fresh things from the Western Regions.
This time, in addition to those usual things, the wild boar was added, and a line of small words was added after this item, indicating that the wild boar is good, because the quantity is not much, and each room only gets about 20 catties to try it. However, the old lady of the Gu family has twenty catties alone, and she is dedicated to honoring her.
Later, he added a sentence, saying that Mrs. Zhang had bought a few mountains and planned to raise this kind of pig, and if it was successful, she would be able to send more to the capital at the end of next year.
Gu Changqing couldn't help but laugh when he read this, but the old lady of the Gu family wiped her tears: "It's still my Niuniu and Yongzhu who think about me, and they even think about me as an old woman when they get something delicious!" But I'm a mother, but I almost hurt my girl......"
Gu Changqing wanted to disappear in place.
I had to persuade a few words with a bitter face, and saw that the old lady of the Gu family was still crying and wiping her tears, so I was really helpless, but fortunately, at the end of the gift list, Mrs. Zhang made a set of clothes for the old lady with her own hands, a pair of lambskin boots, and a pair of knee pads.
Suddenly came to the spirit, and hurriedly asked people to send this thing in first and handed it to the old lady of the Gu family.
The old lady of the Gu family looked at the things made by her daughter, where could she still take care of her son, she was too late to be full of joy, and she couldn't put it down while holding the clothes and knee pads.
Gu Changqing was a little greedy when he looked at it from the sidelines, he had done so much for his mother, why didn't he have any of his own brothers?
I used to think that it was rare to get along with my eldest son for half a day, but now when I look at my eldest son, I feel that he is redundant, and when I see my eldest son eyeing the things in his hand, she immediately protects the tiger and holds everything in her arms, and begins to drive people away: "In broad daylight, even if Xiu Mu doesn't have to go to court, don't always stay in my old woman's yard, go back to your own yard, read a few pages of books seriously, and approve a few pages of official documents is serious!" Hurry up, get out of my wayβ"
Gu Changqing smiled bitterly and was kicked out.
When he came out of the courtyard, he saw his personal chief waiting outside, and when he saw him come out, he immediately greeted him, and said in his ear: "Master, in the New Year's gift team, there are people who claim to be Lord Qin, and there is a letter to present to the Lord in person!" β
Gu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses: "Take him to my study!" β
The chief hurriedly took the order and went down.
Gu Changqing hurriedly returned to the study in the front yard, and not long after, the personal long-term entourage walked in with a strange man.
The man saluted Gu Changqing first: "The villain is blessed to have seen Lord Gu!" β
Gu Changqing looked at the man: "Are you blessed?" β
The man wiped his face a few times, removed the beard on his face, and revealed his face, which made Gu Changqing's eyes narrow: "Isn't your adult on the way to the border pass?" Why did you disguise yourself and send a letter back to the capital? But what happened? How did you get mixed in with the New Year's gift-giving procession? β
A litany of questions were thrown out.
The man saluted and said unhurriedly: "Lord Qiyu, this is all under the orders of my family, and the small one is dressed up and returned to the capital, because he wants to send a letter to the adult's house, and he happened to meet the convoy of Mrs. Dingguo's New Year's gift on the road, and the small one mixed into the convoy." β
Gu Changqing suddenly had an ominous premonition, and said in a deep voice: "What about the letter that your adults asked you to send?" β
The man took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Changqing respectfully.
Gu Changqing opened the letter, swept the letter in two or three eyes, and shrank his eyes, but he couldn't see it on the outside, so he only said, "Has anyone else seen this letter?" β
The man said respectfully: "This letter has never left the little one!" Dressed up in disguise along the way, no one knew that the little one was the person next to the adult. β
Gu Changqing nodded: "Then your lord told you, after sending the letter, should you stay in the capital, or go north to chase your lordship?" β
The man hesitated for a moment: "Our lord asked me to obey Lord Gu's orders!" β
Gu Changqing turned his head and instructed the long entourage beside him: "Take him down, arrange a courtyard alone, and entertain him, and I'll let people go to you if there is something!" β
The man was not polite, he said goodbye and went out with the chief.
Here, there was no one in the study, Gu Changqing's face changed dramatically, and he glanced at the letter again, with a complicated look on his face, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and shouted outside: "Prepare a sedan chair!" β
The people who were waiting outside hurriedly ordered them to go down, and they asked, "Master, where are you going?" β
Gu Changqing kept at his feet, and while tying the belt outside, he said, "Go to the Weiguo Mansion!" Bring ten catties of the wild boar meat sent by Mrs. Gu today, this is a good thing, the quantity is very small, why do you have to let Wei Guogong try it? β
The subordinates knew that their master had always been at odds with Wei Guogong, and although the two were relatives who turned a corner, they were worse than enemies.
Every time Mrs. Gu gives a New Year's gift, the lord always has to compare with the Weiguo Mansion, and I want to come again this time.
Therefore, everyone was accustomed to it, and they went down to prepare with a smile.
When Gu Changqing went out, the sedan chair had already been prepared, and the ten catties of wild boar meat were naturally carried.
Along the way, I met several familiar people, saw the sedan chair of the Gu family, and then looked at the things carried by the entourage behind me, as well as the route to go.
As soon as the days were counted, it suddenly became clear, but I was afraid that the eldest master of the Gu family was going to compete with Wei Guogong again.
When I first watched this, it was still a rarity, but now it's been a few years, and the eldest master of the Gu family is not tired of it, they are tired of watching it, so they just laugh and laugh.
When they arrived at the Weiguo Mansion, the convoy of New Year's gifts in Chicheng County was still queuing up at the side gate of the Weiguo Gong and was walking inside.
Song Wu was watching at the door, and when he saw Gu Changqing's sedan chair, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his forehead.
Looking at the pork carried by the Gu family's entourage, I really can't wait to turn around and hurry in and close the door, once in a year, I am tired and panicked!
But he only dared to think about it in his heart, Song Wu had to raise a smile on his face and greet him: "Master Gu is here, please come inside!" Our grandfather is talking about you! β
Gu Changqing got out of the sedan chair, but his face was arrogant: "Hmph, this official knows that your grandfather will talk about this official today, so he will come in person." I also brought a good thing to your grandfather, my sister-in-law sent back the boar from Chicheng County, I heard that this boar is a good thing, and the yield is small, my sister got a little bit in a year, and sent it to us! β
"In the end, our two families are relatives, and we have good things, so we can't help but let your grandfather try them, right? So I brought it on purpose, you take it down and clean it up, and I'll have two drinks with your grandfather today! β
Song Wu was dumbfounded, what's wrong? Is this also an upgrade? In the past, I only went back after two mockery, but now I plan to continue after eating?
I was slandered in my heart, and I had to smile on my face, and I welcomed people in.
On the one hand, he asked people to report to Song Hong, and on the other hand, he personally carried the mountain boar and followed behind Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing is now familiar with the route, and he doesn't need to lead the way, he is in front.
Song Hong heard that the person who gave the New Year's gift from Chicheng County had arrived, and he knew that he was afraid that Gu Changqing's old puppet was coming.
I had been waiting in the study for a long time, and when I saw someone arrive, I snorted coldly: "Sure enough, as I expected, you will come today, you said that you are so old, you have been so old, have you been so old, are you tired?" β
Gu Changqing turned a deaf ear, walked straight to the study and sat down, and ordered: "Bring a pot of good tea!" β
Song Hong's eyes flashed, and he waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, go make a pot of tea to entertain Master Gu!" β
Song Wu took the bacon and saluted and went down.
Before leaving, Gu Changqing hadn't forgotten the meat: "Remember to take it to the kitchen and let someone make it, and I'll accompany your grandfather to drink two cups at night!" β
Song Wu glanced at Song Hong.
Song Hong nodded, and Song Wu said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Gu, the little one will go to the kitchen to explain in person." β
When Song Wu's figure came out of the courtyard, Song Hong put away his impatient look: "What's wrong?" β
Gu Changqing didn't talk nonsense, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Song Hong.
Song Hong took the letter, swept it with a glance, and suddenly lost his voice: "Holy him-"
Gu Changqing shouted with a cold face: "Be cautious! β
