Chapter 700 Mu Xiu
Gu Yi didn’t even need to turn around to know who was coming.
The voice is so familiar. He has been with me for the past few years.
"Buqi, come!"
Gu Yi still turned sideways and waved at the person who came.
"Yes, sir!"
The visitor was a young man in his twenties, wearing a moon-colored wide-sleeved robe and wooden clogs.
The clogs stepped on the wooden floor of the treasure ship but did not make much noise.
Just looking at this one item, you can tell that this young man has a good upbringing and background.
In fact, his temperament is indeed noble, and he stands tall and straight like a pine tree.
He walked to Gu Yi's side and stopped half a step behind Gu Yi.
He was respectful and showed great respect to Gu Yi.
Gu Yi raised his head slightly and said to him with a smile, "This is your first time on a sea ship. Are you used to it?"
Ahem, that’s right, Gu Yi raised his head while speaking to the person who came.
There was no way. The man was too tall, a head taller than Gu Yi, who was of medium build.
If Gu Qingcheng was present, she should be able to estimate this person's height by eye - over 190cm!
He is definitely a 7-foot tall man. You should know that one foot in the Northern Dynasties was about 27 or 28 centimeters.
The man was tall and had a very "outstanding" appearance! He was not ugly, but according to the later sayings, he was definitely a handsome guy.
but--
Looking at the young man's long light brown hair and silver-blue eyes, Gu Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart again.
Alas, this child has a good family background, is smart and has a good temperament, but he has an appearance that is different from ordinary people.
With brown hair and blue eyes, one can tell at first glance that he has foreign ancestry.
Although the Northern Dynasties were ruled by the Xianbei people, they had been assimilated into the Han people many times by their superiors.
The nobles of the Northern Dynasties read Han classics and believed in certain Han traditions.
The offspring can be of mixed race, but they cannot look like a "ghost".
And the young man in front of me is discriminated against just because of his appearance.
As a true nobleman from an aristocratic family, Gu Yi has true tolerance and compassion.
He will not be arrogant because of his talent, nor will he succumb to the secular world and discriminate against anyone.
In addition to Gu Yi's noble character, there is also a reason that Gu Yi cannot say out loud - his own daughter too, too, alas!
Therefore, Gu Yi did not despise or discriminate against this young man. Instead, he showed more pity and kindness to him.
Mu Xiu looked at Gu Yi with admiration. Because of his unusual appearance, he had suffered a lot of cold stares since he was a child.
He has seen many looks of disgust, ridicule, or curiosity from people.
He had also felt inferior and resentful before.
However, he is still very fortunate to have met a "good teacher" like Mr. when he was young.
Yes, Mu Xiu was Gu Yi’s disciple in the Northern Dynasty.
In ancient times, people paid attention to Heaven, Earth, the Emperor, parents and teachers.
A teacher is the person second only to blood relatives.
And Gu Yi did play a very important role in Mu Xiu's growth process.
Mu Xiu couldn't imagine what he would become without his teacher, without his careful teaching for nearly ten years! For Mu Xiu, his teacher was the closest elder in the world, more important than his parents.
After all, the gentleman would not treat him as an outsider.
And his biological father——
Alas, maybe it wasn’t kind enough to him, but at least I found a way out for him.
His ability to become a disciple of the Gu family was the only and best arrangement his biological father had made for him.
Because of Mr. Gu, the entire Gu family was also very kind to Mu Xiu.
Mu Xiu finally felt the feeling of being treated normally.
He was very fortunate and grateful.
only--
"Why? Is it your first time on a boat, and you feel uncomfortable? Or do you have any concerns?"
Seeing a hint of sadness between Mu Xiu's brows, Gu Yi asked with concern.
"Sir, I'm fine, I'm not feeling unwell!"
When Mu Xiu lowered his eyelids, he saw the caring look on his teacher's face, and his heart warmed.
but--
What about the gentleman's daughter?
According to legend, the very powerful and smart Sanniang of the Gu family, would she, would she dislike me? Of course, for these noble girls, even if they disliked me, it would not be very obvious.
Just like Gu Youyi who stayed in the Northern Dynasty, when she met Mu Xiu, she behaved politely and courteously.
He never said anything bad to me, nor did he show any strange expression.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
What's more, when they first met, this family-friendly girl was very enthusiastic.
It’s a pity that her enthusiasm and kindness are too superficial.
Maybe it can deceive ordinary people, but it is different for Mu Xiu. He has lived under all kinds of strange looks since he was a child.
His heart is delicate and sensitive.
He can clearly feel whether others are sincere or not.
At least, in Gu Youyi, Mu Xiu only saw utilitarianism and no sincerity! Deep down, she still looked down on him.
It's just for some reasons that he is willing to "bear humiliation and bear heavy burdens" to be on good terms with me!
Mu Xiu: ...Haha, someone is actually trying to get close to me.
Should I be proud?
Since birth, Mu Xiu has felt the greatest and most malice in the world. Although he lacks love, he does not care about this kind of false feelings.
Therefore, he was very cold towards Gu Youyi's enthusiasm.
After encountering so many setbacks, Gu Youyi gave up.
Gu Youyi: ...Although Mu Xiu will become Yuwen Heng's right-hand man in the future, this person is too difficult to conquer.
It's like thousand-year-old ice, and no matter how hard you try you can't warm it up.
"It's true that ugly people are more likely to do weird things! He looks like a monster, and his heart is cold and black!"
Gu Youyi had the opportunity to be reborn, so she naturally knew that those people would achieve great things in the future.
It was okay for the others. Gu Youyi was able to recruit them more or less thanks to her noble surname and wealthy family background.
Even the biggest winner in the future will become her husband.
Only Mu Xiu, as his name suggests, is a broken stone!
Mu Xiu: ...
Naturally, he wouldn't care about people who didn't treat him sincerely.
As for the people he cares about, Mu Xiu will become extra cautious——
He respects his husband and is willing to be close to his family.
But, what if the teacher's biological daughter dislikes me? Gu Yi saw his beloved disciple hesitated to speak, and after a little thought, he guessed: "Buqi, don't worry, my Aqing is not a superficial person!"
Even if they were not "the same person" who suffered from the same appearance problem, Gu Yi believed that with his own Ah Qing's broad-mindedness and wisdom, she would not despise Mu Xiu.
…
At Gu's Wu Castle, Gu Heng called Gu Qingcheng over.
"Your father sent me a letter, saying that among the people traveling with him this time is a disciple he accepted from the Northern Dynasty."
"This boy's name is Mu Xiu, he is twenty-one years old, and during his coming-of-age ceremony, your father gave him the name 'Buqi'."
Gu Heng went straight to the point and explained the truth to Gu Qingcheng directly.
"Mu Xiu, he--" His appearance is somewhat different from that of ordinary people, and he has been regarded as a ghost since he was a child.
Gu Heng swallowed the rest of the words.
Like Gu Yi, he believed that his own Ah Qing was not a superficial person!
