That evening, Gu Qingyan returned to the Gu family's old house, and Mr. Gu Jiu was waiting pitifully in his yard. Judging by his appearance, he had been waiting for a long time and was almost turning into a watchtower.
Gu Qingyan looked at him and raised her eyebrows.
When Mr. Gu Jiu saw him coming back, he immediately came up to him and tried to please him, "Brother Qi, what do you think? Sister-in-law Qi agreed?"
Gu Qingyan deliberately betrayed her, "Pour me some tea."
Mr. Gu Jiu immediately entered the room, poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Qingyan with his own hands, and handed it to him carefully, "Brother Qi, be careful not to burn it."
Gu Qingyan refused, "You should learn how to make tea that is lukewarm, lukewarm, and at a moderate temperature."
Mr. Gu Jiu immediately expressed his stance, "I will definitely learn it tomorrow."
Gu Qingyan nodded, "You want to join the army. Have you read all the military books at home?"
"Have you read them all?" Mr. Gu Jiu promised, patting his chest, "Brother Qi, are you going to take a test on me?"
Gu Qingyan shook his head, "I never asked you why you want to join the army?"
"I just want to." Mr. Gu Jiu scratched his head.
"There are many kinds of thoughts. You must always tell the truest thought."
Mr. Gu Jiu thought for a while and said seriously, "I just feel that most of our Gu family members are walking the same path. We are all followed step by step. They are all the paths marked by the elders. It seems that you can see them all at a glance.
This is my whole life. I don’t want to be like this. I want to take a path that I have to explore by myself.”
Gu Qingyan said "Oh?" "You mean, the path I am taking is also the path marked by my elders?"
Mr. Gu Jiu took two steps back, "No, no, no, Brother Qi is still a little different."
"What's different?"
"This..." Mr. Gu Jiu looked at Gu Qingyan, feeling very dangerous and unable to speak out. He held it in for a long time before he uttered a sentence, "Brother Qi relied on himself."
Gu Qingyan laughed, the meaning of this sound was unclear.
Young Master Gu Jiu's hair stood on end, "Qi, Brother Qi, did I say something wrong? I don't understand, don't laugh like that."
Smiling like this is so scary, he is scared.
Gu Qingyan stopped laughing and looked nonchalant, "Since you have made up your mind, then follow your heart and move forward. I have already mentioned it to Princess An, and she has no objection. She will let you go to Anjia tomorrow.
I’m looking for her in my old house.”
Mr. Gu Jiu cheered, extremely happy, "Thank you, Seventh Brother."
He was dancing and jumping happily, like a child, with the sincerity of the bright stars in his eyes.
Gu Qingyan seemed to not want to see him again, so she waved to him, "Go away."
Mr. Gu Jiu felt that something was not right with Gu Qingyan, but he never dared to explore what the seventh brother was thinking and why he disliked him, so he immediately left happily.
After he left, Gu Qingyan picked up the cup of tea he had just poured and drank it slowly. At this time, the hot tea was already warm, neither cold nor hot, and the temperature was moderate, just right.
So far, the Gu family only has nine members. At a young age, he has seen through the nature of the Gu family. And although he has already seen through it, because he is the eldest son and grandson, and because he is so outstanding, he has been the heir determined by the Gu family since he was a child.
, and if you can’t make a mistake, you will make a wrong step.
Mr. Gu never asked him what path he wanted to take.
And he himself never thought about whether he could still find a path that was not marked by his elders.
In short, he stayed in the capital and already held a high official position before he was crowned weak.
Maybe, one day, the Gu family will be him, and he will be the Gu family.
After Gu Qingyan left, An Huajin didn't feel sleepy, so he took the pot of osmanthus wine that Gu Qingyan didn't want to drink, ran to the roof, and drank the osmanthus wine with his legs crossed while admiring the moon and stars.
.
Chu Xiyun couldn't sleep tonight. She tossed and turned on the bed for a long time. She simply got up and walked out of the courtyard where she lived. Originally, the serving maid was walking around casually with the palace lantern, but she didn't want to walk. An Huajin came over.
Yard.
At the entrance of the courtyard, she saw a blurry figure on the roof. She was startled at first, and then when she took a closer look, she saw that it was An Huajin. She asked the maid next to her in a low voice, uncertainly, "Is my eyesight blurry?"
?Is the person on the roof my cousin?"
The princess took a closer look and nodded, "Princess, it's Princess An. She seems to be drinking on the roof?"
Chu Xiyun was very surprised. In her memory, no one climbed up to the roof to drink. It was night, weren't you afraid that your feet would slip on the tiles and fall down accidentally?
She walked slowly into the courtyard, stood in the courtyard, raised her face and shouted, "Cousin?"
An Huajin had already seen Chu Xiyun and wondered why she was up so late at night and came to look for her, "Why are you here? Is something wrong?"
Chu Xiyun shook her head, "I couldn't sleep, so I just walked around and ended up in your yard."
"Oh, you can't sleep either. Maybe you slept too much during the day?" An Huajin asked with a smile.
Chu Xiyun blushed, left the palace, and came to the Anjia. She didn't have to abide by the rules in the palace. The Anjia was the last place in the world that didn't need rules. She didn't just sleep whenever she wanted, and she wanted to sleep until the sun
It doesn’t matter if you show off your butt. You can sleep for most of the day after taking a nap. You slept too much, but now you can’t fall asleep?
She whispered unnaturally, "I slept too much."
"You should take it easy. Don't stay idle here for too long. When you return to the palace, there will be no rules." An Huajin reminded her.
Chu Xiyun pouted, "Cousin, are you drinking?"
"Well, do you want to drink?" An Huajin asked.
Chu Xiyun looked up at her, "Is there any difference between drinking on the roof and sitting in the house?"
She is really happy to see An Huajin look like this.
"Accompanied by the clear breeze and bright moon, surrounded by stars, beautiful scenery and good night, with fine wine in hand, it is naturally different from being in the house." An Huajin looked down at her, "You also want to come up and drink with me? Give it a try?"
Chu Xiyun immediately shook her head, "No, I don't dare."
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that your aunt will hear that you have no rules? It's okay, I'm here." An Huajin felt that this cousin also had cuteness, as long as she didn't like Gu Qingyan and lost her temperament.
Children, when we get along with each other, they are not as prickly as hedgehogs, they are very cute.
For example, Chu Siyan, Jiang Yuncai, this cousin Chu Xiyun, there are probably many more, but the others are probably afraid of staying away from her and don't dare to play with her.
"No, I'm afraid of falling." Chu Xiyun told the truth.
Anhua Jindale, "With me here, how could I let you fall? How useless would I be?"
Chu Xiyun hesitated after hearing this, "Really? Can I go up?"
She had never been on the roof before, and she wanted to go up, but she looked scared because it was too high.
"Okay, if you want, just come up. I promise I won't let you fall." An Huajin looked at her.
Are you so timid? Not as good as Chu Siyan? If she hadn't been so scared today that she ran back to Prince Shan's Mansion and asked her brother if he wanted to choose a husband for her. Now that he heard the noise, he would have run up without fear.
.
"I want to go up." Chu Xiyun hesitated for a while and then made up her mind.
The palace maid next to her hesitated to speak, but she did not dare to persuade An Huajin in front of her. Although Princess An always smiled at people and did not lose her temper at will, she seemed to be easy to serve, but
They are just very afraid of Princess An.
"Come here, bring a ladder." An Huajin ordered.
Someone thought so and quickly brought a ladder.
An Huajin casually stepped on the top of the ladder, took a sip and said to Chu Xiyun, "Climb up."
Chu Xiyun's face turned a little pale, "Climb, crawl?"
"Yes." An Huajin smiled, "Don't you dare?"
"Cousin, how did you get up?" She saw that the ladder was brought in from outside the courtyard and did not exist before.
"I don't need a ladder. I hook up from the window sill to the eaves and come up." An Huajin explained.
Chu Xiyun looked at the window sill, at the eaves, then at the roof and An Huajin. She was immediately impressed. She mustered up her courage and came to the ladder, "What if I fall..."
An Huajin was helpless, "Someone is following you."
Didn't you see the dark flame quietly standing under the eaves of the corridor? If this wasn't her cousin, she wouldn't be too lazy to talk nonsense with her and rush back to sleep. She had to sleep if she couldn't sleep.
Chu Xiyun almost lost her patience after hearing An Huajin's tone. She didn't dare to challenge her patience anymore. She reached out and grabbed the ladder and started to climb up with gritted teeth.
The palace maids were so frightened that they all gathered under the ladder and kept saying, "Princess, be careful."
At this time, they felt a little regretful for not persuading the princess. If the princess wanted to take a walk, she should also take a walk in her own yard, so there was no such thing.
Chu Xiyun climbed halfway, her legs were shaking, her face was extremely pale, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead, "Cousin, cousin, I can't survive. I'm scared. Wuwuwu."
An Huajin saw that she was really pitiful. He threw out Bichanjuan's gauze and hooked her around her waist. He gently used force to lift her up to the roof, "Okay, why don't you come up? You are so timid. Auntie."
Back then, when I was not married, what was the point of climbing on a roof? She was indeed a princess, she was too squeamish."
Chu Xiyun felt that her feet had stepped on the tiles, so she hugged An Huajin's waist and shivered, "Cousin, don't let go."
An Huajin nodded, "Okay, I won't let go, you sit down with me."
What a little ancestor, she was full and full, so let her go up to the roof. Wouldn’t it be relaxing and comfortable to be alone on the roof?
It took Chu Siyan a lot of courage and a long time to adapt to sitting on the roof. She opened her eyes. Although her face was still pale, she saw An Huajin beside her so leisurely and comfortable, and she never let go of her hands.
, with a great sense of security, she gradually lost her fear, became excited, and said in a cheerful tone, "Cousin, looking at the stars from the rooftop is really different."
