Gu Mozhai thought that Li Wenchong said polite words, but he just responded with his words and did not dare to really think about it.
He is a down-to-earth scholar. As long as he takes the imperial examination well in the future, even if he cannot become a high official, he can still find a small official to support his family. The high mountain of Prince Chong is not something that a small person like him can climb casually.
At this time, Gu Mozhai didn't know that Li Wenchong was serious.
He asked Gu Mozhai to go to Prince Chong's Mansion, not because he wanted to teach Gu Mozhai personally, but because he wanted Gu Mozhai to learn more from Gu Qingling, broaden his horizons, and expand his knowledge so that he could use it for the Ming Dynasty in the future.
In Li Wenchong's view, Gu Mozhai's character was good in all aspects, but he was too young, had too little experience, and was somewhat lacking in vision. Although he was not a great talent, he could be used.
After going to the Gu family, I went to the Yao family later.
After all, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu are "elders" to Gu Qingling, and she is the eldest in the Yao family, and only sees several sons and daughters-in-law.
This was the first time that Gu Qingling came back after getting married. She and Li Wenchong sat at the main table. Uncle Yao, Mrs. Yao, Second Master Yao, and Second Mrs. Yao led the room full of people and bowed respectfully.
The little guy Yao Jiuye got up from the ground and looked at Gu Qingling eagerly, his eyes full of longing.
Gu Qingling's heart suddenly softened and she waved to him.
Yao Jiuye happily ran into Gu Qingling's arms: "Mom..."
Gu Qingling smiled and hugged him, and shook her head: "Hey, Mom, look, have you gained weight? Yes, yes, I have eaten well these days, and I seem to be heavier."
Yao Jiuye smiled: "That's because I'm growing. Sister Shusu said that I'm growing up now and I have to eat well so that I can grow into a big man like my godfather."
While talking, he also looked at Li Wenchong next to him.
Obviously, the servants had already laid the groundwork in Yao Jiuye's ears about Gu Qingling's remarriage to Li Wenchong, just in case he couldn't accept it.
You know, many of the people around Yao Jiuye are Li Wenchong's people.
Yao Jiuye's eyes showed his love and admiration for Li Wenchong.
"Then if you want to look like me in the future, you must not only eat well, but also study well." Li Wenchong's face was also full of smiles.
They hadn't seen him for a while, and for fear of scaring his son, he wasn't too anxious to let him get close to him. He just looked at him with encouraging eyes, hoping that Yao Jiuye would take the initiative to get closer to him.
"I study hard, I read a book every day, and Sister Shusu will also tell me stories..." Yao Jiuye tilted his head in Gu Qingling's arms and looked at Li Wenchong, as if to
It's like he's imprinted in my mind.
Yao Jiuye continued, "Godfather, can I ask you a few questions?"
"what is the problem?"
"They said you married my mother, is that true?"
Li Wenchong didn't expect Yao Jiuye to ask this question, and he suddenly became cautious: "It's true, will you... be unhappy?"
"Then I need you to answer my question first. They said that after you marry my mother, I will live with her in Prince Chong's Mansion. Is it true?"
Li Wenchong nodded: "Yeah, really. And I will prepare a big yard for you, bigger than your yard in Jinling. You can still see Grandpa Zhou when the time comes, and he will be responsible for taking care of you in the future."
"Really, that's great. I miss Grandpa Zhou too. Grandpa Zhou is a very kind person. He will also play with me with tops. Master Zhou is very good at playing tops..." Yao Jiuye immediately remembered that paragraph
Happy time in Jinling.
At that time, his godfather and Grandpa Zhou were both there and would play with him.
It's a pity that my godfather had something to do and left Jinling later, and Grandpa Zhou also left.
Later, his mother married his godfather and he came to the capital...
Yao Jiuye felt that he was almost spared by his godfather. He still had many important questions that he had not asked.
He suddenly looked serious and asked Li Wenchong to be more serious and not change the subject. Wait until he finished asking before saying anything else.
Li Wenchong was a little helpless: "Okay, you say."
In the room, Uncle Yao, Mrs. Yao, Second Master Yao, and Second Mrs. Yao looked at each other, somewhat worried in their hearts.
When Prince Chong was just a young man from a wealthy family, they thought it was nothing. They could speak casually, and it didn't matter if they were wrong. But now that Prince Chong has become Prince Chong, it's different.
Children may not feel anything, but adults like them feel it clearly, as if they will get slapped if they make a wrong sentence.
Yao Jiuye asked: "Why did you marry my mother? I have heard them say that my mother is already very old, and it would be a shame to remarry at such an old age. And you are younger than my mother, so you follow me
The eldest brother and the second brother are the same age..."
"Damn slave!"
"This official deserves to die!"
"Darn it for the common people!"
…
Afraid of what might happen, everyone in the room quickly knelt down, fearing that Li Wenchong would be angry.
They had also heard of this, but who dared to spread it to Li Wenchong’s ears?!
I'm afraid I won't die.
Yao Jiuye was startled by everyone's reaction and quickly hid in Gu Qingling's arms.
Gu Qingling was calm and patted Yao Jiuye's back gently: "Don't be afraid, your godfather will be your biological father after mother marries you. There is nothing to be afraid of when you talk to your biological father."
Yao Jiuye carefully looked at Li Wenchong's expression.
Li Wenchong felt helpless and waved for everyone to get up.
He had also heard of such words, but no one except the emperor dared to say them in front of him.
At the same time, I didn't expect that Yao Jiuye would actually say it in front of so many people.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Uncle Yao, Mrs. Yao, Second Master Yao, Second Mrs. Yao, etc. breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their seats one after another.
Li Wenchong smiled and comforted Yao Jiuye, telling him not to be afraid. He also waved to Yao Jiuye to come to him: "Your mother is right, you will be my biological son from now on. How can a biological son be afraid of kisses?"
Daddy? Come, come to me."
Yao Jiuye hesitated for a moment, but with Gu Qingling's encouraging eyes, he walked up to Li Wenchong.
Li Wenchong hugged him onto his lap. Smelling the scent of the little guy's milk, Li Wenchong's heart was full of nostalgia. If it weren't for paving the way, or for marrying Gu Qingling, he would bring his son into Prince Chong's palace in an open and honest manner.
,how could he miss his growth?
Look, after not seeing each other for a long time, the little guy has actually become alienated from him.
"I married your mother for two reasons. One is that men should be married when they are college students, and women should be married when they are college students." In front of so many people, Li Wenchong didn't have the nerve to say whether he liked it or not, so he could only find someone to say no.
The reason is the past, but the meaning is enough.
"The second one," Li Wen continued, "of course it's because of you. I don't have a son, but I like you and want you to be my son. As long as I marry your mother, then you will be my son. Kill two birds with one stone.
So I got married."
"Did you marry my mother because of me?" Yao Jiuye was young and didn't quite understand the meaning of men getting married and women getting married, and no one emphasized to him who could marry and whom.
Can marry.
That Gu Qingling was very old and it was embarrassing to remarry was something he overheard from other people's mouths and thought it was not a good thing, so he came to ask Li Wenchong.
In Yao Jiuye's opinion, nothing is more important than Gu Qingling.
No matter how much he liked Li Wenchong, as long as he was compared with Gu Qingling, even Li Wenchong would have to lag behind.
He doesn't understand anything about getting married, but he knows that getting married means living together, like an elder brother and a sister-in-law, or a second brother and a sister-in-law.
He was worried that Li Wenchong would be bad to his mother.
