Chapter 6: The past is like yesterday
The scorching heat is hard to get rid of, and the rest has come.
Since people were reunited on August 15th, Gu Mingsheng sent someone to Qinzhou Academy to bring Gu Jinhe and Gu Jinqi back to stay at home for a few days.
The scorching sun's rays were pouring down on this day. The weeping willows in the yard lowered their heads and showed no signs of life. The potted plants in the yard also drooped their heads listlessly. As for the greedy little white cat with blue eyes, he no longer knew where he was going.
Hang out.
Gu Jinshu was lying boredly on the couch enjoying the coolness. In addition to the ice mirrors surrounding her, there was also a little maid fanning her with a cattail leaf fan. There was also a maid with a double bun who was telling her about the interesting trivial things in Qinzhou City recently.
For a time, the yard also added a bit of lively color.
"You're an interesting girl."
When she heard something interesting, Gu Jinshu stretched out her white and tender fingers and tapped the little girl's nose. The warmth left by her fingertips made the little girl blush from time to time, but she became even more enthusiastic about telling stories.
When Gu Jinhe walked in despite his enthusiasm, he saw this extravagant scene. His brows twitched slightly. Why did he think that his eldest sister had more money than him? He lowered his eyebrows and glanced at himself.
The clothes on his body are all glittering with gold, except for the gold on his forehead. No matter how you look at him, he looks like a rich man.
The fleeting thought just now was obviously an illusion.
Thinking of this, he straightened his clothes and approached Gu Jinshu with a walking posture of dragon and tiger. His voice was a little out of tune: "It's so hot, young master, this damn weather."
Seeing that her young master was like a starving ghost reincarnated, he sat down and chose the iced lychees that he had finally acquired. Gu Jinshu could not help but narrow her eyebrows.
"Why didn't you practice martial arts today?"
I don’t know what magic Shen Qingci used to make Gu Jinhe, a man who only saw yellow and white things, become obsessed with martial arts, and even suffered a lot of torture after finally returning home. This is really incredible.
matter.
"Mr. Shen went out for business and did not assign any homework. I am not balancing work and rest!"
He looked like a little ruffian in the market, with his round, almond-shaped eyes dancing around. He threw lychees into his mouth while staring at Gu Jinshu, not knowing what he was planning.
When Gu Jinshu heard that Shen Qingci was out, her pretty eyebrows furrowed slightly. After a while, she calmed down a little and asked tentatively: "He has always been quite harsh on you, what happened to delay you today?"
"I left early in the morning. I don't know the specific details. But Mr. Shen really has some abilities. I'm making rapid progress. I don't have to worry about being bullied when I go to Qinzhou Academy this time."
Gu Jinhe's eyes were shining when he said this, and his round face like a moon disk showed a bit of excitement, as if he had seen himself becoming the king and hegemon in Qinzhou Academy.
"Did anyone bully you in the academy?"
Looking at Gu Jinhe's focused eyes, Gu Jinshu thought to himself, "It's not good. This person next to her is afraid of chaos in the world. If he practices martial arts and goes to Qinzhou Academy, he doesn't know how much trouble he will cause."
.
Although the Gu family has great prestige in Qinzhou, and her father now holds the power in Qinzhou, who among the people who come to Qinzhou Academy to study is easy to mess with?
"No, just in case of emergency."
Thinking of those nasty guys in the academy, Gu Jinhe felt that he should learn more tricks and beat them until they couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.
At a glance, Gu Jinshu seemed to have thought of Xiao Jiujiu in Shen Qingci's heart, and saw his sinister intentions. Did he want to raise her biological brother to be a first-class overlord?
If Gu Jinshu had a certain attitude of letting it go and even being happy about Gu Jinhe's martial arts training a few days ago, then today her attitude has collapsed a bit.
"In the future, you must not act recklessly. You must also be kind to others in the academy. You must not rely on force to do whatever you want and be tyrannical."
She felt that she should do whatever she could to bring him back to the right path, so as not to get closer to Shen Qingci, a villain with a evil heart, and eventually change his temper.
"But Mr. Shen said that the most important thing in a person's life is to be unscrupulous, have no scruples, and be the truest self."
"...What is the thing you most want to do?"
Although Shen Qingci had been insulted from the inside out in her heart, she still tried her best to control her emotions in front of Gu Jinhe.
He scratched his forehead, obviously confused by her question, but after a while he gave an answer: "I can't give you the answer, but what Mr. Shen said is very reasonable. I will definitely not be the same in the future." Things in the pool." He paused and smiled brightly, "As Mr. Shen said, the most important thing in a person's life is to follow one's own will."
Seeing him talking about Mr. Shen to the left and Mr. Shen to the right, Gu Jinshu felt that she was even more troubled in her heart, but she couldn't show it yet.
She knew very well that Gu Jin and these ten cows could not get rid of his stubborn temper, so she was not going to waste words on him. Instead, she set her sights on Shen Qingci. He was just an old man who was about to be buried. She is still obsessed with wanting to interfere in her own life. If that's the case, don't blame her for being ruthless.
In the evening, Gu Jinshu sent her capable maids out of the mansion to buy some medicine, while she herself boarded the carriage and drove towards the governor's mansion.
Zhou Xia, the governor of Qinzhou, is a descendant of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty. If we talk about it in terms of seniority, he can be called the younger brother of the current emperor. Although he is not close, he has never been in the fifth service. He has been the governor of Qinzhou for more than ten years and employs people in various ways. Ge, he has gathered a group of loyal and brave men.
When the Zhou royal family lost its capital and the capital was in turmoil, Zhou Xia could be regarded as one of the few people in the Zhou royal family who had real power. Therefore, both the ninth emperor of the imperial family and the dignitaries of Qinzhou valued him.
Although the Zhou Mansion did not dare to say that it was crowded tonight, there was an endless stream of people coming and going.
The inner courtyard of the Governor's Mansion is full of youth and beauty, and the waterside pavilions are exquisite.
Gu Jinshu walked inconspicuously among the ladies. This was not only because she was still young and her figure had not yet opened up, but also because she applied a lot of rouge and gouache on her face when she went out. Her face was originally pink and tender. The delicate appearance instantly becomes a bit more gaudy.
The leading woman, however, has beautiful features and beautiful features, which can be called a delicate beauty. Especially in her speech and behavior, there is a hint of the air of a superior, and she also highlights her compelling heroic spirit.
This woman who guided the country among the noble ladies was surprisingly Zhou Xia's only daughter Zhou Zidai, Princess Zidai of the Zhou Dynasty.
Seeing the splendid woman now, she couldn't associate her with the white-haired, pus-covered Ye Ting Chou Granny. She had to say that Shen Qingci was a devil, an extremely ruthless executioner.
He showed no mercy to himself, and even more so to Zhou Zida.
Thinking of her final fate and the scars on her face that had been with her for more than fifty years, Gu Jinshu's jade hand caressed her left cheek without leaving a trace.
