Chapter 135 (1/2)
In the evening, the elder master Gu Zhiming returns to his house and learns that during the day, Xie Mao brings people to call. The old master was so angry that he took a knife and went out to cut Xie Mao.
The eldest wife, Zhang, managed to persuade people down.
”This is a contradiction between the second younger brother and his elder brother-in-law, so don't get involved.”
Master Gu Zhiming's eyes glared, and he looked particularly fierce, ”how can this be called blind involvement. Xie Mao deceives people too much, dare to bring people to the door, who gives him the courage?
I wasn't here in the afternoon. He escaped. If I'm in the house and he dares to call, I'll kill him without saying a word. ”
Zhang's mouth was turned away, and her face was disgusted.
”You look down on me?”
Zhang secretly turned his eyes, ”they are all imperial officials. Who can kill who? Do you think that you are the general who leads the army outside, and you will not accept the orders of the king outside. If you say you want to cut down, you only need to send a letter of apology afterwards?
This is the capital. It's under the emperor's feet. Who dares to cut down and kill officials? Do you want to eat Jin Wuwei's prison food?
I tell you, the matter of the second brother and Xie Mao can only be solved by official means.
You are a military general, but you can't play with those civil servants. You have to respect the opinions of the second younger brother in this matter, and don't make any confusion. ”
The old master was so angry that he smashed the teacup, ”can't Xie Mao be arrogant, but can't fight back?”
Zhang said calmly: ”counterattack also has to fight back in the officialdom. Xie Mao can bring people to the door, but we can't.
All the people in the hall are watching. The second younger brother will make a big move to attract the wind. At this time, you can't make mistakes and get caught.
Don't forget, the empress is still lying in the palace. Do you really think that the East Palace is a bully? ”
Obviously, Zhang is more calm and rational than the elder master, and he can see it more thoroughly.
He lived in Beijing for generations. Zhang's family is very familiar with the affairs of the court.
Although she can't offer very good advice, she knows what can be done and what can't be done. Know the truth of protecting oneself.
The old master frowned and snorted coldly, which was very uncomfortable.
As a general, you can't cut and kill your opponent with pain and joy. It's really subdued.
He said to Zhang: ”you are a woman. I don't want to talk to you. I'm going to see my second brother. This can't be left alone. ”
The old man went out in a huff.
Zhang watched the elder master leave with disdain. He had foreseen that the elder master would run into a wall there.
The old master went through the corridor and went to the study.
But I didn't expect to meet Mr. Gu.
Mr. Gu suddenly jumped out and scared the old master.
”How did father come out?”
Gu's face was not happy, and when he saw the old master, he vomited.
The old master was disgusted, but he couldn't fight back. His heart was bent.
”I gave birth to your two useless sons. You have lost my face. It's useless. ”
Mr. Gu pointed to the master and scolded him.
The old master blushed. Who is useless.
”If father doesn't know the inside story, don't talk nonsense.”
”There is something I don't know. After giving birth to both of you, what did I do in my last life? ”
Mr. Gu was crying for help. He sat down on the ground and made a scene.
Hearing the news, Mr. Gu came out of the study.
Seeing Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu jumped up and grabbed Mr. Gu's wrist. ”Second, why are you useless. Let's go to Xie's house with me and pull Xie Mao out for a fight. ”
Mr. Gu was impatient. ”Father, can you stop making trouble? You don't have to worry about it
”What claim? What is your opinion? When Xie Mao calls, you should beat him back with a slap in the ear and teach him how to be a man. ”
Mr. Xie refused to give up and insisted on taking Mr. Gu to find the place in Xie's house.
Mr. Gu asked for help from the elder master, ”elder brother, you are in charge of the old man.”
The old master frowned and winked at the servant first. Several young men rushed up and skillfully raised Mr. Gu.
Gu scolded, ”unfilial sons and daughters, have no fart *, two counsels bag, let the old man down. If you don't listen to me, I'll kill you next time. ”
Gu's voice gradually faded away, and a farce was finally over.
Mr. Gu sighed, ”elder brother, you have a way.”
The old master Gu Zhiming snorted, ”I told you to train some useful boys. Next time, the old man will make trouble. You will carry him down directly and lock him in the yard according to my method.”
Mr. Gu had no choice but to smile bitterly. ”As you can see, my younger brother has been too busy recently, and the old man's things have been neglected.”
The master stared at him, ”what's wrong with Xie Mao? He's coming to the door, and you're going to let him go?In my opinion, the old man's words are not wrong. You should give Xie Mao a slap in the ear and teach him how to be a man.
Relying on the identity of the eldest brother-in-law, it is simply lawless, we do not care about our family. In that case, why should you be polite to him
”Elder brother, this is not as simple as you think.”
The old master snorted and looked contemptuously, ”isn't it Donggong? You're afraid of him. Anyway, our family and the east palace can't urinate in a pot, and the empress's mother is dying. She just tears her face to dry his mother's. There is the East Palace behind Xie Mao, but don't forget that there is an entire military general standing behind you. If you don't believe that the military generals of Xun GUI unite, you can't turn over an eastern palace. ”
Mr. Gu frowned, ”big brother, can you stop messing up? If things are so simple, how many princes can wait until today? I'm afraid it started years ago.
In short, it's not the time yet. We should be more patient at this time. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Don't take a wrong step at this time. ”
The old master was impatient. ”I just don't like your way of doing everything. Take your time. How many years have it been? It's still like this bird.
Forget it, I can't help you with the affairs in your Yamen. But if you need me, just ask. We two brothers, don't be so outspoken. ”
”Don't worry, brother. I'm sure I won't see you.”
The old master patted Mr. Gu on the shoulder, ”remember, this time we must give Xie Mao a lesson. If you can't kill him, you have to peel off a layer of his skin. ”
Mr. Gu nodded solemnly, ”I have this idea.”
The old master laughed, ”so I can rest assured.”
In the evening, Xie woke up.
She asked Mr. Gu to be invited to the lotus garden.
”Master, my elder brother...”
”It needs to be mentioned again.” Without waiting for Xie to finish, Mr. Gu simply interrupted her.
Xie's face was dispirited, and his heart was flustered.
She opened her mouth and could not say anything in front of Mr. Gu's serious face.
At last there was only a sigh.
The couple were silent for a long time, and the Xie family began to speak again, ”Lu Hou's house invited a matchmaker to come to talk about marriage. Mrs. Lu took a fancy to the two girls and wanted to marry them for their legitimate young son. Please give me an idea about this, and I will reply to Mrs. Lu as soon as possible. ”
Mr. Gu frowned.
Xie was surprised.
She thought that Mr. Gu would agree to such a good marriage as Lu Hou's house.
Xie asked cautiously, ”master, is this marriage inappropriate? The two girls are weak and can't be the young grandmother. It is also appropriate for her to marry the legitimate young son of the Duke of Lu. ”
Gu said without expression: ”this marriage is not in a hurry. Wait and see. ”
Mr. Gu has doubts in his mind.
Peiren, the Marquis of Lu, had a high position and power, and his position was unstable.
And Lu Hou house do in laws, a sudden look, it seems very good.
On second thought, however, the risks are high.
Mr. Gu remembers that Lu Houfu still wanted to get married with the Marquis next door, but he was rejected by the marquis.
Mr. Gu thought it over for a while, but still thought that he would wait until the situation became clear.
He said to the Xie family, ”the two girls' marriage is not in a hurry. If the Duke of Lu asks about it, you should think of an excuse to delay. ”
”I listen to the master.”
At the same time, Xie's heart was relieved.
Hold on!
She didn't like to see Gu Jiu marry to Lu Hou's house.
Gu Jiu, a sick seedling, has no qualification to marry into gaomen.
……
December 23, the new year.
Gu Fu is making preparations for the new year.
People are busier than usual, but everyone is very motivated.
New year, you can get a large reward. When the time comes, we can get together to eat wine and play with money. It's not pleasant.
