Chapter 261: The First Impression Is Terrible
Chapter 261: The First Impression Is Terrible
Gu Zilu frowned slightly, he bent down to pick up the stool, and said coldly: "Miss Song, it is more important for you to learn the rules of dealing with people than to prove your military prowess."
The implication is that he is satirizing Song Zhen'er for being aggressive, not knowing how to treat people and handle things, not even knowing the basics, and how could she dream of taking on military affairs and national affairs?
Song Zhener's eyes turned red due to the criticism.
Her parents and sisters at home all loved her very much, and outsiders also gave way to her because she was a woman. In addition, her father was a third-rank minister, so basically no one could make her angry. But now she met Gu Zilu, and he forced her to jump up and throw a stool on their first meeting, which was enough to show how hateful this young man was.
"That's none of your business!"
Song Zhener bowed to Su Jin, turned around and ran away.
The poetry gathering was disrupted, and Luan Wu and his friends were not very happy. However, since the host asked them to go back, they could not stay any longer, so they all stood up and said goodbye. Tong Yuan also bowed, but Gu Zilu said coldly: "Next time, before you bring someone here, please let me know in advance. If something like this happens again, don't come to our poetry gathering again!"
It turned out that the person was brought by Tong Yuan, and Gu Zilu had not been told yet.
When Su Jin raised his eyebrows, Tong Yuan said in a familiar manner: "I know, I know, but I think there won't be a next time."
Song Zhen'er and Gu Zilu got tired of each other as soon as they met, and they thought there would be no next time.
"Then, Miss Su Liu, I'm leaving too!"
Tong Yuan ran away before he could finish his words, fearing that Su Jin would catch up and beat him. He dared to look back only when he reached the Moon Gate. He saw Su Jin standing in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at him angrily, then he laughed and waved.
"Calling you Sixth Miss means we are destined to be together. If Sixth Miss wants to get married, please consider me!"
Su Jin: ...
Gu Zilu: ...
Damn, is this guy's brain poisonous?
Su Jin's face immediately turned ugly, and Pian Tongyuan walked backwards, still shouting: "My father is a fourth-rank Dali Temple official, so there are still opportunities for promotion. Although I am a concubine's child, my mother is a Xiongnu noble. My mother's family has many herds of cattle and sheep, which is no worse than the Hexi Su family. Miss Su Liu, please consider it... Ouch!"
Tong Yuan fell flat on his face.
He walked backwards and didn't see Yuchuan silently stretching out her legs behind him.
Then, this outspoken fellow was tripped by Yuchuan and fell into a dog's shit...
Yuchuan: I told you not to talk nonsense in front of the master's house, I'll throw you to death!
Gu Zilu snorted coldly, thinking that Tong Yuan’s fall was not bad enough. Who are you to dare to dream of becoming my father?
Beside him, Su Jin also breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his hand, pointed at Tong Yuan who was rubbing his butt and getting up, and said to Yu Chuan, "Kill him!"
Yuchuan was instantly overjoyed.
It’s been a long time since I fought with others!
Now it’s time for me to show off my skills again, hahaha!
So Yuchuan didn't think twice and raised her hand to hit him. Tong Yuan couldn't laugh anymore. He covered his head and ran away. Su Jin's cold voice came from behind him: "From now on, don't let this person in!"
"Yes, girl!"
There were voices of response in the yard, and everyone obviously felt relieved. However, Tong Yuan, who was disrespectful to his elders, became the first guest not received by the Su Mansion.
Snap!
The door slammed shut and Tong Yuan rubbed the bump on his head but couldn't help laughing.
Luan Wu and a few others were waiting for him, and seeing this, they couldn't help but wonder: "What are you laughing at?"
Tong Yuan smiled and said, "Zi Lu's mother is really interesting. Her temperament doesn't seem like that of a pedantic person from the capital, but more like the style of my biological mother!"
Everyone knew that Tong Yuan's biological mother was a Xiongnu noble. Luan Wu couldn't help but say, "My aunt's family is from Hexi. The people in Hexi are tough and sturdy. I guess she is similar."
Tong Yuan nodded: "Where's Song Zhen'er?"
"The person has already left. I saw Miss Song's eyes were red. I don't know if she was crying. You brought the person here, so you should be responsible."
Luan Wu and his companions turned around and left heartlessly.
Tong Yuan originally came to watch the fun, and now that he had seen enough, he strolled towards the Song Mansion with his hands behind his back.
It was supposed to be a blind date, but it ended up being a match made in heaven.
As soon as Song Zhen'er got home, she cried, closed the door and refused to see anyone.
Song Shuda, the Minister of Rites, had only this one daughter, and he loved her so much that he couldn't help but ask outside the door, "Zhen'er, what do you think of her? You don't even like someone as outstanding as Lu Ge'er?"
Song Zhen'er cried, "Let him die!"
Song Shuda: ...
Ah this...
It seems there is no hope.
It's a pity for such a good son-in-law. The two of them are not destined to be together. What a pity, what a pity.
Song Shuda was still regretting the loss of such a good son-in-law, but Song Zhener was already lying on the bed gritting her teeth.
Everyone says that Gu Zilu is good, he is good-looking, has good literary talent, and is the son of a marquis. They say that he is very likely to inherit the title. But now, bah, is that good?
Not good at all!
The whole person was so cold that he didn't even smile when he saw her, as if others owed him something. Also, what did the interference of foreign relatives in politics, the previous emperor's favoritism to concubines and the exclusion of the empress have to do with her?
Song Zhen'er didn't want to hear these words, as if the demise of an entire dynasty was caused by women. Why should all the blame be put on women?
Besides, she didn't say that people's livelihood is not important. What she said was that military forces are also important. Why doesn't this person listen to others and has to forcibly distort her own meaning?
She admitted that she had a bad temper and was wrong to throw the stool on the spot out of anger, but she also had to make that idiot Gu Zilu listen to her, right?
What about winning the top three places in the middle and small class? Song Zhener felt that Gu Zilu was stupid, how could he win the top three places in the middle and small class?
Pooh!
What kind of joke is this?
The more Song Zhen'er thought about it, the angrier she became. She simply stood up and drew a little man on a piece of paper, then pricked it with a needle to vent her anger.
Gu Zilu, Song Zhener will never reconcile with you from now on!
Everything was fine, but now they are hostile to each other!
However, Gu Zilu didn't care about the so-called hatred at all.
He also felt that he was not wrong. Troops were important, but people's livelihood was more important. If the people could not even get enough to eat, where would they get extra food for the war?
If the common people cannot even get enough to eat, who will cultivate the land? Who will stabilize the country?
We should first appease the people's livelihood and then deploy military forces, and the current emperor is doing just that. Since he ascended the throne, he has implemented benevolent policies, reduced taxes, found ways to open up trade, and encouraged commerce. Aren't these all for the people's livelihood?
As for the war in the northwest, it was imminent, so we had no choice but to do it.
But who would have thought that he just retorted and the lady jumped up and threw the stool. It was simply unreasonable!
How could there be such a rude and aggressive lady in this world? She doesn't even look like a woman at all!
Gu Zilu's first impression of Song Zhener was also very bad. She didn't look like a woman at all. It was simply the worst comment ever.
