"Clean carefully. Master Hou's main room must be cleaned. There will be many guests next year, so don't be rude."
On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the mansion began to prepare for the New Year one after another, and cleaning was in progress everywhere.
Qi Zhou has been busy welcoming and sending them off recently, Qi An was afraid that he would be too busy to neglect the affairs of the mansion, so he personally supervised the people under him to clean up.
Yufu plays chess with Gu Huaijiang in the room.
Looking out through the half-open window, people in the courtyard are busy shuttling.
Qi An is like an old pine tree that cannot be blown by the wind. As long as he stands there, everyone will have a direction.
Methodical.
Gu Huaijiang dropped the chess piece, "I thought Shu Bai and the others would be able to come back at this time, but today they are eighteen. There are many affairs in the mansion, and the butler Qi is tired."
Yes, it's the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
"Big Brother, did you have a letter saying when you'll be back?"
"The last letter was delivered five days ago, saying that Yunyan and the others have been sent safely to Jinling and are about to leave for the journey back."
He suddenly remembered something, got up and rummaged through the letters from the study, his eyes lit up.
"This is a letter from Immortal Valley, why didn't you tell me in time?"
The servant bowed to the ground outside the door, "Master Hou, calm down, it's a letter from Immortal Valley, not from God of Medicine."
Last month, Gu Huaijiang ordered someone to send a letter to Xunchi in Immortal Valley to discuss the matter of Gu Shubai and Yufu's engagement, and has been waiting for Xunchi's reply.
He didn't reply to the letter, but asked someone else in Immortal Valley to send a letter
What kind of front is this playing.
Yu Fu stared at the letter and suddenly had an ominous premonition.
She stared at Gu Huaijiang as he unwrapped the envelope. On a large piece of white paper were written a few large characters that penetrated the back of the paper. It was not like a letter, but more like a call to action against the enemy.
"Master ordered me to reply to the letter on my behalf - what Master said is only three words, you are dreaming!"
Gu Huaijiang's face suddenly became stiff.
"General, show me."
Gu Huaijiang suddenly held up the letter, but Yu Fu didn't touch it when he jumped up.
He smiled and said, "Your master still doesn't quite agree with this matter. He must be very reluctant to part with you. But it doesn't matter. I will discuss it with your master slowly. You don't have to worry."
If you don't worry, there will be ghosts. The general probably doesn't know how ugly he is when he smiles.
Yu Fu knew that there must be nothing good written in the letter, so he simply didn't read it, "Well, I will follow the arrangement of the general and master. Master has a weird personality, if he said something bad, the general must not let it go. In my heart."
This is more than weird, it is more than unpleasant.
Even if he scolded Gu Huaijiang, he still refused to scold him himself, and only asked his apprentice to write back to scold him.
It can be seen how much he loves Yufu and is reluctant to let this apprentice marry someone else in the future. In fact, if it were Gu Huaijiang, he would also be reluctant to assign Yufu to another boy early.
Isn't it because Gu Shubai is his own boy that he can't wait
The fat and water don't flow to outsiders' fields, and the adopted daughter has become a daughter-in-law, but the relationship is closer.
"It's okay, your master is an outsider, and there are some weird ones. Take your time, you are still young, and you are not in a hurry."
After figuring this out, Gu Huaijiang's complexion returned to normal, and the two sat back in front of the chessboard.
Qi An is still in court.
Yu Fu said: "General, I remember that it has been more than half a year since Steward Qi's granddaughter was sent to the Zhuangzi, right? Steward Qi has worked so hard, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, should we let her back so that their family can be reunited?"
Gu Huaijiang said: "Actually, I had this idea a long time ago. Steward Qi is an old man in the mansion, and Qi Zhou has also provoked the leader. For the sake of the family happiness of the whole family, she should be released, but she was sent away because she offended you. Always take care of your face."
Yu Fu smiled and said: "Now I'm the one who speaks up, the General doesn't have to worry about hurting my face. She has been humiliated for so long and she knows she was wrong. If she can correct herself, let her stay when she comes back this time. "
Gu Huaijiang didn't say anything more, Yufu himself planned the future for her, which shows his sincerity.
He was quite moved, "I don't know who taught you to be so tolerant. Although I don't have a daughter under my knees, I have met many women over the years. Even my eldest sister, Mrs. Su, is not as tolerant as you."
In the boudoir, Mrs. Su was known for being generous, dignified and courteous, which was nothing compared to Yufu.
This is really rare.
Judging from the reply from Immortal Valley, this medical god Xunchi is by no means a magnanimous person.
The words "you dream" are full of anger jumping between the lines, Gu Huaijiang seems to be able to hear his scolding across the page.
He can teach Yufu medical skills and poison skills, but he can't teach such a broad-mindedness.
Yu Fu was not conceited, "Madam Su is not stingy, but she misunderstood me at the beginning. I have good food and clothes in this mansion, so there is nothing to be stingy about."
The only thing she can care about is Gu Shubai.
He can't like anyone but himself.
Gu Huaijiang laughed loudly, "Understood, the lack of tolerance is due to unsatisfactory life. People who are smooth sailing naturally have a broad mind."
He wanted Yufu to continue like this, so that she would be carefree and free from stinginess.
