Chapter 21: There are news to accompany you
Although Gu Jinqi was glaring at him, he knew it was not the time to retreat, otherwise the two of them would no longer have the relationship of master and disciple.
"yes."
"I will not accept a disciple, but if you have such ambitions, I will definitely introduce you to a good teacher in the future." He paused and said with sincerity, "Don't bring your sister to my place in the future, I don't
Likes to tease children.”
"But eldest sister..." Gu Jinqi wanted to say something else but was stopped by Shen Qingci, whose light words pierced his heart and lungs, "She misunderstood me."
After Shen Qingci finished speaking, he went straight into his yard, leaving Gu Jinqi scratching the back of his head with a dazed look on his face. After a long while, he muttered: "What's the misunderstanding?"
Gu Jinshu returned to her courtyard and thought about what happened today. Finally, she found that it was a bit confusing. How did Aunt Wei know about Sister Xiao and Monk Wuchen? But no matter how she thought about it, there was no reasonable explanation.
, and could only sigh helplessly, waiting for the boy's reply.
The next day, a fish-belly-like whiteness rolled across the sky, and golden light shot out from Cangshan Mountain like a thousand sharp swords. Gu Jinshu got up at this moment.
"But do you have time?"
She rubbed her eyes and asked the maid beside her, and the maid smiled and shook her head: "It's early in the morning, would you like to sleep a little longer?"
"Come freshen up!"
According to Aunt Wei's expression yesterday, she was afraid that she would not be able to visit today, but Xiao Luo didn't know what happened. She got up sickly under the attention of everyone, and washed herself in front of the mirror for a long time before letting someone tell her that she was early.
Food.
Although the mistress of the Gu family is Mrs. Liu now, she has never had the habit of sleeping in the morning and dusk. She used to be doted on by her biological mother, Mrs. Ye, but later on, Mrs. Liu didn't even want to maintain her face.
Perhaps because he felt guilty, Gu Mingsheng never said anything.
But when she was having breakfast, Gu Mingsheng hurriedly appeared in her courtyard, and there seemed to be a lot of worry in his expression.
"Father."
She stood up and called him, then asked someone to bring a pair of dishes and chopsticks, but Gu Mingsheng did not refuse and accompanied her to eat. It was not until the maid removed them that the father and daughter came to Gu Jinshu's small study room.
"There is urgent news from the capital, do you want to go north?"
As he spoke, he took out the envelope from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Jinshu. Gu Jinshu was slightly stunned after taking the letter. In the previous life, my grandmother had not endured this cold winter, so she always thought it was an accidental cold wind in winter, so she sent it to the capital.
The letter also always emphasized that she should pay attention to her health, and she didn't expect her body to have problems during this season.
"Your grandmother's health has been in trouble for a long time, but she has been hiding it from you juniors. The reason why you are so anxious to send your brother back is because her health is getting worse and worse."
Gu Mingsheng sighed slightly. He was grateful from the bottom of his heart for his mother-in-law. Back then, he was still penniless and went to Beijing to take the exam, so he fell in love with Wan Yu at first sight. But at that time, his father had died early and his biological mother had passed away.
, the only stepmother also separated her houses with her brothers and sisters early on.
At that time, except for the name of the scholarly Gu family in Qinzhou, it can be said that he had no blessing, but even so, she did not stop her and married her only legitimate daughter to herself. Later, he established a firm foothold in Qinzhou and later
The Yuqin and the harp were harmonious, but the weather never stopped, and in the end, it was him who was responsible for Wan Yu.
"What does father mean?"
The letter from the Ye family was delivered in the middle of winter in the last life. She was just about to go north, but because of her fragile body, it was difficult to travel long distances, so she did not see her for the last time. Is it possible that the letter was received in the middle of summer in this life?
Is it because I write letters more frequently in this life than in the previous life?
"This letter is in your uncle's handwriting. Although he did not ask you to go, he actually feels guilty as a father."
If it were the cold winter, he would be reluctant to leave his daughter to accompany him to that bitterly cold place. Moreover, the situation was still unclear, and he was afraid that a huge change would occur.
But it was a warm and sunny day, and if he tried to stop him, he would inevitably prevent his uncle from having other thoughts.
Seeing his daughter sitting there with a blank look on her face and not expressing her opinion, he pursed his lips and continued: "Of course, this matter is still your own decision."
Although he felt guilty towards the Ye family, how could he not feel guilty towards his two daughters? Therefore, he could never straighten his spine whether in the Ye family or in front of these children.
"If that's the case, then it's up to father to arrange it."
She must go to the capital with her, not only to make up for the regrets of the previous life, but also to see if her grandmother is really terminally ill and incurable.
Whenever there is a chance, she will not give up.
"When are you going to leave?"
Gu Jinshu thought for a moment, slightly raised her lips, and said in an unhurried voice: "Of course, the sooner the better, but don't tell Jinhe about this matter yet."
Jin He has been staying with his grandmother in the past few years. The relationship between the old and the young is naturally very good. The reason why he became more and more difficult to discipline in the last life is probably inseparable from the sudden death of his grandmother.
"good."
After Gu Mingsheng left, he started to make arrangements for Gu Jinshu to go north. During this period, Mrs. Liu tried to dissuade her with a few gentle words: "Jin Shu is still a child, how can you feel comfortable letting her go north alone?"
"I have my own escort maid by my side, so there won't be much trouble."
Although he was also worried about his daughter's safety, he couldn't get away from here for a moment. The direct line of the Gu family had always been thin, and there was no one he could rely on.
"The Qinchuan area is now in danger of water bandits. If we don't pay attention carefully..."
It can be said that Mrs. Liu's words were all for Gu Jinshu's sake. Even Gu Mingsheng had second thoughts and didn't know for a while whether he should send his daughter north.
"You just sit there for now, let me think about this matter more carefully."
There are a lot of water bandits in the Qinchuan area, or in this time of turmoil in the world, no place is at peace, but everything always has a priority.
The old lady's health is getting worse day by day, which may have a lot to do with Wan Yu's early death. If he is unwilling to let his daughter go north, what will his uncle think of him? But if he lets his daughter go north, what if he encounters bad luck?
What about water bandits?
"You should think things through carefully and don't get carried away."
Mrs. Liu gave him a charming look, and then began to prepare clothes for him. It wasn't until Gu Mingsheng left the maid serving beside her that she smiled and said, "Madam is really kind-hearted, and she can take care of all these things for the big girl."
"Yeah?"
Mrs. Liu's well-maintained hands gently brushed over Gu Mingsheng's sleeves, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
