As soon as the brother and sister stepped into the door of the house, they were surrounded by family members. Gu Cunjing was pulled aside by his father and brother and asked about the situation of the horse farm, while Gu Rujiu was surrounded by his mother and sisters-in-law, and he drank soothing tea and was arranged to bathe and change.
According to the custom, when encountering such an accident, in order to avoid getting bad luck, everyone bathes and burns incense, in order to ask the ancestors to bless this life without disease and disaster, and do not encounter such disasters.
Gu Rujiu couldn't bear to turn away this kind of concern from her family, as long as her mother and sisters-in-law arranged her around.
Seeing that his daughter was taken away by his wife, Gu Changling sighed and told his two sons to sit down, "Because of this incident, the Li family and the Sima family will inevitably have a quarrel between the two families. The two of you don't get involved. Not much friendship."
Although his temperament is usually gentle, he is also very important. It's their business that the Sima family and the Li family want to fight in the ring, and their Gu family doesn't want to be the pawn of either side.
Gu Zhiyu and Gu Cunjing knew what their father was worried about, and they both nodded in unison: "Father, don't worry, we will act carefully."
"Yeah." Gu Changling nodded, and he was very relieved that his two sons were acting. The eldest son acts prudently, and the second son is quick and discerning, neither of which is a troublemaker.
"At the racecourse today, I sensed something was wrong," Gu Cunjing frowned. "There seems to be some conflict between Mrs. Li Wu and the Li family, and my attitude when I look at her is a bit wrong." He originally thought that Mrs. Li Wu was because of She was especially unstable when she experienced the pain of losing her daughter, but after thinking about it carefully, the way she looked at the Li family was not like the way a mistress looked at her own family.
For things that he couldn't figure out, he brought it up to discuss with his father and brother, which was better than thinking about it alone.
After hearing what Gu Cunjing said, Gu Changling felt that as a male elder, it was not suitable for him to talk about the past private affairs of other women, so he shook his head and sighed, "You don't have to inquire about the affairs of the Li family."
As soon as he heard this, Gu Cunjing knew that there must be something in the past, but it was only because his father obviously didn't want to talk about it, and Li Wu had just lost a daughter. He talked about other people behind his back. He suppressed the curiosity in his heart and was embarrassed to ask.
Originally, I was worried that my younger brother would speak without knowing the importance, but the other party didn't ask any more, and Gu Zhiyu was relieved in his heart.
"Although the Sima family and the Li family have had an in-law relationship for nearly a hundred years, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Even if they are both first-class families, there is still a distinction between superiors and inferiors," Gu Changling gently rubbed the teacup in his hand, and seemed to have some emotion in his expression. With some relief, "Unfortunately, it's not hundreds of years now."
The glory of the family will gradually dissipate, and the imperial power is destined to be above everyone.
The scenery of the slave owners thousands of years ago can kill life and death in one sentence. But because of the collision of culture and the rights of various classes, this land has become the world of noble families and royal families. Thousands of years ago, Emperor Yuanshi unified ten kingdoms and established a dynasty. The family and the royal family have always been in a position of restraint.
Since the course of history is destined to be unchangeable, as a person who has anticipated it, he can only try his best to find a directional path for himself and future generations.
Seeing their father's complicated expression, Gu Zhiyu and Gu Cunjing fell silent.
At this time, the female official sent by Jin Yang to deliver the things arrived.
"I have seen Lord Gu, I have seen the two sons," the female officer headed to bow to the three, and then explained the purpose of her visit.
"The sage is thinking about the hard work of the sage teaching the sage's knowledge on weekdays, so he specially asked the slaves to bring incense tea and other things to soothe the mind and nourish the body," the female official motioned to the maid and eunuch behind him to bring all the things up, and said with a smile, "The sage respects the teacher and respects the teacher. Sincerely, I hope that Lord Hou will not refuse."
Gu Changling looked at the tea incense and the silk cloth in the hands of the eunuchs and palace ladies, and his mood suddenly became a little complicated. Those few pieces of fresh and tender colors looked like the cloth used by little girls, are they also for him
Who is a good student who respects teachers and respects Taoism, and makes his husband use this kind of thing. "Your Majesty is too polite, and this minister is deeply ashamed." Gu Changling accepted the thing with a smile, and then let the housekeeper greet these people from the palace to eat. Tea. Seeing that the female official insisted that he would not accept it, he sent it to the door in person, and gave everyone a red envelope.
As soon as these people left, Gu Changling and his two sons discovered that among these gifts, the medicinal materials were all good things to soothe the nerves and nourish the body and even the face. He, the big man, ground it into powder and stewed pigeon soup, didn't he
"Your Majesty... What does this mean?" Gu Zhiyu was a little silly, these things didn't look like they were used by his father.
After reading these things, Gu Changling stroked his beard and smiled, and when he saw the eldest son asking, he said, "Didn't I tell you, it was given to my father to soothe the gods?" After speaking, he called a few maids to hold the things, Follow him to the backyard.
The two brothers looked at each other, hesitantly followed, what did the father mean
After taking a bath, she put on a new dress. Accompanied by her mother, Gu Rujiu gave her ancestors incense with her half-dry hair. She turned around and bowed to the sky before returning to the house and eating her two sisters-in-law specially for her. Prepared pastries.
It seems that because they were worried about causing Gu Rujiu's fear, the three of them did not mention the horse farm, but chatted with Gu Rujiu about some small anecdotes.
"Didn't you see, that the great man of the Wei family was chased by his wife, so he didn't dare to pick up his shoes, which made people outside see a lot of jokes," Chen shi said with a chuckle about the matter of Uncle Wei's family, "This is It's ridiculous and hateful to be a kind of upstart family who doesn't think about educating their children and grandchildren, but makes a fortune and thinks that they are superior to others."
"Isn't that true, as long as people who want some face, who would act like them," Hu shi nodded. There are many upstarts in the capital, but most of them have something worthy of praise. Shameless is really rare.
"It's a pity that the female family members in his family have such a husband," Gu Rujiu took a sip of tea, suppressing the dry feeling in her throat, "The great wife of the Wei family can be reconciled at a young age, but Mrs. Wei Bo has wasted her whole life in Wei. On a person like Bo."
Seeing her daughter's expression, Mrs. Yang seemed to be very emotional, worried that she would have a bad impression on men, so she said: "There are good and bad men and women in the world, and one person's words and deeds cannot represent everyone. You can't easily trust others, but you can't blindly doubt it either. ."
She doesn't think it's bad for her to tell her daughter these things. Her daughter is now eleven years old, and she doesn't teach her these things now. Should she wait until her daughter is deceived by others before mentioning it
Rules are dead, people are alive. Some rules are meant to be shown to others outside. In front of one's own family, they live in the appearance of a complete book of etiquette. What's it like
When they take care of their families outside, other people can't pick out the slightest inappropriate etiquette, and what it looks like when they get home and close the door, then it's none of their business.
Hearing his mother talk to him about the truth of life, Gu Rujiu almost worshipped. Her mother is such a hero among women.
However, it is not easy to be personable and well-mannered outside.
"You have to remember that your words and deeds outside represent the face of yourself and your family, so you can come as you want, but when you get home, it's natural to be as comfortable as possible." Yang took a sip of tea, Glancing at the two daughters-in-law and daughter, "home is called home because it can make everyone feel relaxed and comfortable."
Chen's and Hu's understood what Yang's words meant, and they both showed some smiles on their faces. As the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, since they got married, they have gotten along harmoniously with their mother-in-law and their aunts, and they have also been very close to their husbands. The Gu family's family style is excellent, and they are all in one heart, so their life is very comfortable.
Gu Rujiu touched her nose. In fact, what she said was a bit more common, that is, "Don't be so serious, just show enough face outside, and who will you show you when you get home?"
She finally understood where the two brothers learned their behavior when they were handsome outside, and when they got home, they showed their true colors.
"This is how families get along, and the same is true for husbands and wives," Yang's voice lowered a few degrees, "Men don't like women who keep the door behind closed doors, and women don't like going home and pretending to be benevolent and moral. man."
With two daughters-in-law still there, Mrs. Yang was inconvenient to talk too much, she just closed it when she saw it, "What time is it now?"
Just as Mrs Chen was about to answer, she heard footsteps coming from the door, turned her head to look at the door, and saw the three Gu family, father and son, walking towards the house, followed by a few maids holding things behind them.
Knowing that these things were sent by the sage to the female official, a few of them were a little curious. After looking at it, they all understood that the sage was sending shocking things to Jiujiu in the name of respecting the teacher and valuing the Tao, right
Gu Rujiu did not expect that the little emperor would bring a bunch of things over, so he reached out and opened a small brocade box, which contained a silver temple flower.
Seeing the silver temple flowers, Yang's expression was a little strange: "What does your majesty mean?" No wonder she thought so much, how could such a gift be given
Gu Changling took the temple flower in her daughter's hand and put it back in the box: "This flower is plain, and the young girl still looks good with brightly colored jewelry."
Gu Rujiu: …
How old is the little emperor this year, how old is she? Did Dad think too much
Gu Hou and his wife did think too much. Jin Yang asked the female official to bring the silver temple flower to Gu Hou's house, just because these things were useless in his place, and he thought that the junior sister of the Gu family had black and shiny hair and wore a Must be beautiful.
He still remembers the style of the plain silver hairpin in his hair when he met Junior Sister Gu on the palace road a year ago.
I don't know if Junior Sister Gu will like that temple flower
That night, I moved Dafeng's good senior brother Jin Yang, who was still thinking about this matter before he fell asleep.
