Chapter 1631 Peach Blossom
Gu Yan did not ask much about Zhou Hou Mansion. Just as his younger brother did not dare to have any extravagant hopes, he did not dare to think too much. The two brothers were concentrating on saving their family fortune and building businesses.
In the fourth room of the Marquis's Mansion, Chang Zhi walked back to the courtyard with his hands behind his back. He was not surprised to see the young lady, "I knew you would come."
Yuwen, "Is Dad satisfied?"
Changzhi snorted, "Not satisfied."
Yuwen poured tea for Dad. Dad was obviously very satisfied. If he was not satisfied, he would have said it on the day Gu Sheng joined the company, and he would not have invited people to test him today. "Dad, have some tea."
Because Gu Sheng was born in a poor family, Chang Zhi often inquired about poor sons-in-law in Beijing. "There are many poor sons-in-law in Beijing, but not many of them live well. Some are well-known for making trouble, and some endure it for the sake of their family's reputation. Dad is not saying that poor students are not good, but the gap is too big. Dad hopes that you will have a good life in the future."
Yuwen, "Dad, Gu Sheng is not an ungrateful person. He won't make a fuss. Gu Sheng doesn't have any messy relatives. He is very sensible and won't have any serious troubles in the future. In fact, it's better to keep it simple."
She didn't want to choose a son of an aristocratic family, but she couldn't leave the family. There are many things to deal with, including elders above and relatives below. If she does something wrong, there will be a lot of gossip, and there will inevitably be problems between husband and wife. She doesn't want to take the risk, she would rather control the future that she can control.
In Ningzhou, Minghui nestled in the backyard of the government office, sitting in the pavilion and fishing.
Yuyi and Yujiao were passing by the pavilion on their way back from outside the mansion. Yujiao asked politely, "Brother, how many did you catch?"
Minghui was bored and said, "I haven't counted them either."
Yujiao sat down, "Brother, why don't you go out?"
Minghui said expressionlessly, "What do you think?"
Yu Jiao laughed and stretched out her fingers, "Let me count. Since I came to Ningzhou, I have encountered two coincidences and three times as a hero to save the damsel in distress. Brother, you have too many peach blossoms."
Yu Jiao wanted to laugh when she thought of her brother standing by and watching a beautiful woman suffer.
Yuyi couldn't help but laugh, "It's really prosperous."
Ming Hui rolled his eyes, "You want to give it to you."
Yu Jiao laughed even more happily, "I hope girls won't look down on me either."
Minghui reached out and pinched Yujiao's face, "Let you take pleasure in misfortune."
Yuyi didn't want to save her sister, "It's still the brother's identity that's attractive."
Minghui said dimly, "Is it my fault?"
His grandfather was a marquis, and his father will also be a marquis in the future. He is the future son of a marquis. Alas, as a result of his good family background, he is too popular. Miss Liu on the boat was still reserved.
Yu Jiao stopped laughing, "Who made my brother the best born among these ladies? My brother is also good-looking, so they all set their eyes on my brother."
Yuyi continued, "In our mansion, men do not take concubines. Putting aside the interests you represent, as far as happiness is concerned, even a reserved lady can no longer be reserved."
Minghui said faintly, "I suddenly discovered that the ladies in the capital are really reserved."
Although some people are shy about him, no one is exaggerating!
Yuyi, "Under the emperor of the capital, one person influences an entire family. Who dares to cross the line?"
Minghui stopped fishing, "When Yueyang comes, I will go back with him."
He couldn't stay in Ningzhou any longer. He really didn't dare go out, for fear of being scammed and having an extra fiancée back in Beijing.
In a blink of an eye, envoys from various countries came to Beijing. Zhulan got the news and booked a private room with her granddaughter. The team was very long and there was an exquisite carriage.
Yudie stood by the window, "The beauty is coming."
Zhulan looked longingly and saw that there was indeed a beauty in the carriage. Thanks to the wind today, the curtains of the carriage window swayed, revealing the beauty sitting in the carriage.
Yudie waited until the carriage had gone far away and said, "There are many beauties here this time. There is really a tacit understanding between the countries."
Zhulan thought to herself, it’s a pity that the emperor doesn’t value beauty. Since these beauties have been sent to him, he won’t take them back. I wonder who will get the good deal in the end!
The vehicles in the rear were all loaded with gifts, but unfortunately they were all covered so no one knew what was inside.
Suddenly Zhulan looked at the rider and her heart skipped a beat. The man on the horse sensed something and turned his head to look at the restaurant, then turned his head away as if nothing had happened.
Zhulan was delighted that the person who just passed by was Jiang An, and he was wearing official uniform!
Yu Wen stared at her grandmother's expression. She had never participated in the game of guessing twin cousins, but she could distinguish the two cousins. She had never told anyone about this. The one just now was cousin Jiang An!
Yu Wen was fanning herself with a fan. "Cousin Jiang An is amazing. From his position just now, we can tell that he is a representative of a country."
The excitement was over, Zhulan stood up, "Let's go back."
At the embassy, Chang Yi and other ministers checked in to receive guests from various countries. When Chang Yi saw Jiang An, he paused. Jiang An's beard had grown longer, making him look older.
By the time we had arranged the envoys, it was already afternoon.
Chang Yi didn't leave. He really wanted to find an opportunity to talk to his nephew. He wanted to ask how Jiang Ping was doing.
When Chang Yi finally found an opportunity to go to the yard where his nephew was, he heard people talking inside. He was discovered by the guards, and Jiang An walked out of the house. Chang Yi had good eyesight and actually saw the princess.
Jiang An asked, "What can I do for you, sir?"
His accent is a bit strange, as if he has just learned Chinese.
Chang Yi, "......I just want to ask if there is anything else you need."
Jiang An smiled and said, "No need, it's already good enough, thank you."
Chang Yi looked at his nephew deeply, and finally smiled, "That's good."
If there weren't people around him, he would have known why the princess was crying.
Chang Yi walked out of the courtyard with doubts. The official behind him asked, "Sir, it's getting late. We should go back to the Ministry of Rites."
Chang Yi, "Okay."
After leaving the government office, Changyi went to the Ministry of Revenue to pick up his father and told him what he had discovered. "I only took a glance and felt that the princess was crying very sadly."
Zhou Shuren, "When a beauty is sent to you, there are a few who are willing to accept it. Even if she is a princess, she is a gift. It is normal to cry."
Chang Yi thought the same thing, "The helplessness of a weak country."
Zhou Shuren, "Well, they all want to exchange for food to take back, which shows how difficult life is in a small country."
Chang Yi added: "I'm really surprised that Jiang An would become the envoy's representative."
Zhou Shuren was also surprised, "This kid is really capable."
Chang Yi said dimly, "This also means that it would be very dangerous if we were discovered."
Zhou Shuren was also worried, but it was useless to worry, "Ah."
When Zhou Shuren got home, he saw the box on the table as soon as he entered the room. "Who sent this?"
Zhulan's eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying. "Jiang Ping brought it to me after dark."
Zhou Shuren had already opened the box, and inside the box were two old ginsengs. "This kid is really brave. They are in so much danger now."
Zhulan, "The two brothers, one in the open and the other in the dark, have already returned to the capital and said they are not in danger."
It means that there are many people cleaning up for them, so don't worry too much.
Zhou Shuren asked, "Is this just for me, or for all of them?"
Zhu Lan smiled and said, "Jiang Ping first went back home secretly before coming here. Hey, I don't know where these two kids got the old ginseng from. Look at these two roots, they are hundreds of years old."
