Although Gu Yi was born into a noble family, he was not self-righteous and looked down on others.
He was like a very upright gentleman, and he was polite and courteous to the so-called upstarts from poor families and the nouveau riche from the royal family.
As for Yuwen Song, he had always admired aristocratic families and had long heard of Gu Yulang's fame.
Seeing Gu Yi being so gentle, she became even happier.
At the first meeting, both sides had a good impression of each other.
Yuwensong led his troops and escorted the Gu family to Chang'an.
During the journey, Yuwensong and Gu Yi got along more and more harmoniously, and Gu Yi also got to know Yuwensong, the great general from the royal family, better.
"This great general is a man with a rough appearance but a careful mind."
When Gu Yi was with Princess Jiangling and her husband, he said this to his wife.
Jiang Ling nodded, "He's quite a character! He seems carefree and has no scheming, but he actually has a plan for success."
Not to mention anything else, just seeing how attentive and considerate he was to the Gu family, a "stray dog" who couldn't escape, you would know that this person is extremely scheming.
“…I want to make further acquaintance with him!”
When Gu Yi said this, he was still holding the letter that his father had sent to him.
Jiang Ling's gaze also fell on Gu Yi's hand.
She had already read the letter and knew what her father-in-law had written in it.
"Ah Qing, ah~~~"
What an outstanding child! He discovered the method of purifying rock salt just based on a certain notebook he had read.
So smart and capable, but ugly!
As a mother who loves her children, Jiang Ling never despises them.
She felt only deep guilt towards her daughter: "I must have not exercised restraint in my diet and ate too much spicy and greasy food, which caused—"
Jiang Ling really couldn't think of any other reason.
She and her husband were both people of outstanding appearance, and their three children, the eldest son, the eldest daughter and the second son, also had excellent looks.
It just happened to be the youngest daughter's place.
Every time Jiang Ling saw his daughter studying hard at such a young age, completely lacking the innocence and liveliness of a child, he couldn't help but blame himself.
Blame me!
It’s all my fault!
I failed to give my daughter a good appearance.
Aqing is excellent in every aspect. Jiang Ling is proud of her, but also feels deeply guilty and distressed.
Hearing his wife's sigh, Gu Yi understood very well.
A hint of sadness flashed across his handsome face.
However, he is a man after all, and is stronger than his wife.
He raised his head again, a warm smile on his face, "Don't worry! Ah Qing is so outstanding, and with the protection of her family and the love of her relatives, she will definitely live a wonderful life!"
It's just a shell. No matter how beautiful your face is, it will get old one day.
But talents, knowledge, wisdom, etc. will not disappear.
Aqing is doing very well now. He has taken out the secret recipe for purifying rock salt.
"This is a good stepping stone!"
Gu Yi held his father's letter and whispered, "Although Yuwensong is very polite to us, my Gu family is ultimately a lost family that fled to the Northern Dynasty."
Relying solely on the family's fame, at most he could gain the "admiration" of the Northern Dynasty royal family.
With only an empty title but no real power, the Gu family was doomed to perish in the Northern Dynasty.
If you want to hold real power, you must have sufficient value.
Working with Yu Wensong is a good start!
“…”
The four words "a dog that has lost its home" may sound harsh, but it is the truth.
Jiang Ling was silent for a moment.
After a long while, she finally smiled and said, "My dear, you are right. Everything will be done as you say!"
"The recipe was created by Ah Qing, give her a share!"
Logically speaking, there is no private property since the family has not been divided.
Children and younger generations should contribute everything they have to the family.
Gu Yi felt sorry for his youngest daughter and wanted to help her save more “capital”.
Although money is a worldly thing, it is indispensable.
With a family, a reputation, and a rich financial background, the future of my youngest daughter will not be too difficult.
"Yes! I will listen to my husband!"
Jiang Ling naturally had no objection to her husband wanting to secretly save a "dowry" for his youngest daughter.
Jiang Ling will only dote on his youngest daughter more and double the compensation.
So, half a month later, Gu Yi received another letter from his father Gu Heng. Seeing that the letter mentioned his youngest daughter's request, Gu Yi waved his hand and directly selected twenty people from the accompanying female guests.
He arranged a team of people to escort them directly from the north to Lingnan.
…
Gu Qingcheng's days are monotonous yet rich.
It was monotonous because she was always on the road and could only sit in the ox cart.
Apart from eating and sleeping, there is no other activity at all.
The enrichment is that Gu Qingcheng can read, collect some herbs along the way, and prepare them by herself.
Whenever passing through a county, Gu Qingcheng would order people to purchase supplies and exchange them for books, seeds and other things.
After experiencing different customs and cultures and seeing folk collections that the Gu family did not even have, Gu Qingcheng felt that her world had been enriched again.
“No wonder the ancients often said, ‘Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles!’”
Although Gu Qingcheng has lived two lives, in her previous life, she had always lived in a box.
The only difference is that the frame is sometimes smaller and sometimes larger.
After encountering the system, Gu Qingcheng saw different worlds in different novel worlds.
But, those are virtual and unreal after all, and are fundamentally different from the time and space we come from.
