Yao shi lifted the cloth of the bird cage and saw that there was a young eagle inside.
Yao Shi asked Xiao Jingkong how he knew the big brother, and Xiao Jingkong explained his experience of being rescued: "... I went to rescue Xiao Qi, and was almost hit by a carriage. It was the big brother who saved me! Big brother is amazing!"
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with admiration for Gu Changqing.
Yao Shi and Gu Changqing hadn't lived together for ten years, and her impression of Gu Changqing was still before he was eleven years old. At that time, Gu Changqing didn't know who he believed in slander, and firmly believed that Yao Shi killed his mother.
Gu Changqing fought against Yao shi with all his might, and the eyes he looked at Yao shi were full of resentment.
He was not good to Gu Yan either.
Gu Yan didn't understand at first, so he often went to three older brothers, but always came back black and blue.
Every time Master Gu knew about it, he would beat up his three sons, but after the beating, someone sued the old lady, and it was Yao Shi and Gu Yan who suffered.
Yao Shi knew that Gu Changqing hadn't beaten Gu Yan, but he didn't rescue Gu Yan from the claws of his two younger brothers like he did Xiao Jingkong.
Yao shi's heart is sour, and she can be kind to strangers, why not to Gu Yan
After all, ten years later, she has long since been relieved.
Gu Yan has Jiaojiao, and he has a good life here, and he doesn't need to go back to the house to see anyone's face, and he doesn't need to suffer some unnecessary harm.
"Big brother is a good person!" Xiao Jingkong said while holding the bird cage.
Yao Shi smiled bitterly.
Gu Changqing was a soldier of Zhao State. He had the duty to protect the people of Zhao State. He was a good person to everyone, but to her and Yan'er, he was the one who wished he could eat their flesh and drink their blood.
From Xiao Jingkong's mouth, Yao Shi learned that Gu Jiao had also met Gu Changqing, but neither of them knew each other's identity.
Gu Changqing didn't see Gu Yan, and when they met, they probably couldn't guess each other's identities.
"Did Big Brother only come here once?" Yao Shi asked.
"Well... Counting today is twice!" Xiao Jingkong said.
The first time was to save Xiaojingkong and send him home. This time, he should really just pass by. He thought Xiaojingkong was cute and brought him a bird.
if not
Could it be that he made a special trip to celebrate Jiaojiao's birthday
It was he who saved Jiaojiao's younger brother, not Jiaojiao who saved him.
Besides, no one would give each other a fierce little chick on their daughter's birthday, right
That's right, what Gu Changqing sent was a young eagle.
It is also known as the Haidongqing young eagle that can only be produced by 100,000 divine birds.
Xiao Jingkong doesn't know any eagle or eagle, but thinks that this baby bird is very big: "Okay, you will be called Xiao Jiu from now on!"
"Jiaojiaojiaojiao! Big brother came over just now! He gave me a bird!"
Xiao Jingkong hugged the bird cage and went to find Gu Jiao.
The small alley was really lively that day, and Wu Yang came shortly after Gu Changqing left.
He was ordered by the king of Anjun to give birthday gifts to Gu Jiao and Gu Yan.
King An's reason was very open and aboveboard: "My county king received an invitation from Lord Gu, and originally planned to come to the house to congratulate him, but he was sick these days, so he asked me to send birthdays to Miss Gu and Young Master Gu. present."
Since it was Lord Gu's post first, then the behavior of Prince An's gift giving is justified.
But Yao Shi vaguely remembered that Gu Houye's post said that it was Hou's mansion. How did King Anjun find this place
Gu Jiao asked, "How does your county king know that we are in the capital?"
Wu Yang smiled and said: "The county king is also a student of the Imperial College. I have seen the roster of the Imperial College, and I know that Xiao Gongzi has also come to the Imperial College. It took a little effort to find out here."
Gu Jiao snorted and looked at Wu Yang up and down: "Suddenly you feel a little familiar, are you the little thief that night?"
Wu Yang shook his head like a rattle: "I'm not! I'm not!"
Oh my god, it's been so long, how do you still remember
Nearly recognized!
Xiao Liulang was not at home when the King of Anjun came to the door. Xiao Liulang heard about it afterwards. Xiao Liulang’s eyes fell on Wu Yang for a moment. Wu Yang was surprised to see that he couldn’t help himself. He coughed lightly and said, “Auntie Are you there? I'll go say hello to her old man."
Xiao Liulang's eyes flashed a meaningful wave of light.
Wu Yang went to the backyard to meet the old lady and gave the old lady two boxes of delicate and delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cakes.
The old lady was very helpful.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager was in good spirits, Wu Yang felt relieved.
In fact, Gu Jiao also felt that Wu Yang's treatment of the old lady was different. The first time King An came to the door, it was very strange. He kept saying that he had come to apologize to Zhuang Mengdie, but who came all the way to apologize. Will you come empty-handed, and the apology will be delivered the next day
In fact, it wasn't that King An was unaware of his flaw, but there was no better excuse at that time. He just prayed that Gu Jiao would not be so smart to think of this flaw.
Gu Jiao always felt that the "assault" that night had nothing to do with Prince An.
This guy named Wu Yang looks more and more like the man in black who shot the old lady with cold arrows that night.
Gu Jiao didn't know that Wu Yang missed the shot, and thought they were here to kill the old lady.
Therefore, Gu Jiao was very protective of Wu Yang. When he went to see the old lady, Gu Jiao stared at him the whole time, staring so much that Wu Yang couldn't even whisper two words to the Empress Dowager!
In the middle of the way, Gu Jiao asked Xiao Jingkong to call over once, but she came back soon.
Wu Yang sighed and left angrily.
"The king of the county." In another alley near the Guozijian, Wu Yang got on the carriage and returned to the king of An county.
"Does she still like the gift?" King An asked.
Wu Yang didn't know, and Wu Yang asked, "Why didn't the prince give the gift to Miss Gu in person?"
King Anjun sneered: "There are a lot of people staring at this king in the capital. This king has to be careful in every move. If anyone discovers this place, the queen mother will not be able to hide it."
On the birthday of the dragon and the phoenix, the family spent a full and happy day.
When the child was approaching, Yao shi returned to the mansion.
The house was also busy for a day, everyone was too tired, the masters went to rest early, and the people still had unfinished work, yawning while doing it.
When Yao shi entered the yard, she unexpectedly found that Gu Jinyu was waiting for her in the room.
Yao Shi thought that she would accompany the dragon and the phoenix to celebrate her birthday, but left Jin Yu in the cold for a whole day, and she felt very sorry.
She walked over, stroked Gu Jinyu's hair on the temples, and asked, "Sorry, mother came back late."
She originally planned to return after lunch, but she was too reluctant to bear Jiaojiao and Yan'er, and stayed there for several hours. It wasn't because Fangmao repeatedly reminded her that she didn't even know it was so late.
There was no grievance or anger on Gu Jinyu's face. On the contrary, she was very happy: "Mother, do you know how many guests are here today?"
"Huh?" Yao shi was stunned for a moment. Her daughter stayed up in the middle of the night and waited for her. So it wasn't because she felt aggrieved that she came back late, but because the banquet was too lively, and she has been happy until now
Yao shi sat down beside her, holding back her tiredness, she said with a smile, "Have you come a lot?"
"Yeah!" Gu Jinyu repeated the names of the distinguished guests one by one, and a few others focused on the details: "... Master Zheng from the Imperial College is here! "
"That's great." Yao Shi smiled and nodded.
Gu Jinyu continued: "Although Prince An did not come to the mansion in person, he sent someone to give me a generous gift! Mother, look, these are all from him! There are so many gifts today that my daughter will never use them in her life. After that, my sister refuses to go back to the house, and her birthday must have been very shabby, so I will pick out some precious gifts for my sister tomorrow."
Yao shi said that there was no need, and turned around to see that the gift that Prince Anjun gave to his daughter was really an expensive gift, and it was incomparable to what Prince Anjun gave to Jiaojiao and his siblings.
It's really unnecessary now.
Gu Jinyu continued to show off: "Prince Concubine also gave her daughter a birthday present!"
This is Gu Jinyu's most worthy of showing off, but Yao Shi remembered something.
Wu Yang seemed to shout when he was talking to the old lady... The Queen Mother.
His voice was a little low, and the old lady couldn't hear it clearly. Yao shi happened to pass by him and accidentally listened.
It should be... Did you hear it wrong
How could Rokuro's aunt be the empress dowager
Not only did the empress dowager make a purse for her daughter, but she also gave her daughter a hairbrush and a wedding dress? Several princesses of the royal family are not treated like this!
"I must be thinking too much." Yao Shi shook his head.
"Mother, what did you say?" Gu Jinyu didn't hear clearly.
Yao shi returned to his senses: "Ah, it's nothing, I mean that since these are gifts from the guests, you can take them yourself."
Gu Jinyu insisted: "Then how can I do it? I want to share it with my sister!"
Yao Shi was very tired, she patted her hand: "No, you can keep it for yourself. She doesn't have much room there, so she can't put it down."
Gu Jinyu still wanted to send it to Gu Jiao, she wanted Gu Jiao to know that even if she brought back the daughter, she was still beautiful, and no one could look down on her!
"Alas." Gu Jinyu sighed after thinking of something, "The only regret is that eldest brother has been in the military camp all day and didn't come back to attend my wedding ceremony."
Yao Shi couldn't bear to tell her that your eldest brother just went to Jiaojiao's house...
It was not far from Guozijian to the Ding'an Houfu. If Gu Changqing had the will, he would definitely come back to attend Gu Jinyu's wedding ceremony.
It only shows that Gu Changqing still does not really accept Gu Jinyu in his heart.
Yao's impression of Gu Changqing is really not a good one, that is, a person without feelings: "If you have nothing to do in the future, go to your eldest brother."
"What's wrong?" Gu Jinyu asked in confusion.
Yao shi held her hand and said earnestly, "You're right, your eldest brother won't accept us."
"Oh." Gu Jinyu lowered her eyes and responded.
She promised well, but the next morning when she heard that her eldest brother had returned to the house, she immediately went to wander around Gu Changqing's yard.
Gu Changqing came out to see her after practicing the sword, and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"
"That..." Gu Jinyu took out a purse from her back shyly and nervously, "Thank you eldest brother for the birthday present, this is my return gift to eldest brother! I made it myself!"
The birthday ceremony was prepared by Concubine Ling, and Gu Changqing had long forgotten about it.
He didn't reach for it.
Gu Jinyu whispered: "I know, I'm not my father's own flesh and blood, I don't deserve to call you big brother, I stole the life that should belong to my sister. If possible, I'd rather have been right in the beginning. It's my sister's, I shouldn't occupy the magpie's nest!"
Gu Changqing had some intention of taking anger towards Gu Jinyu, but since she was not Yao Shi's own flesh and blood, she had taken her anger to the wrong person over the years.
Gu Changqing took the purse: "You have a heart."
Big brother actually accepted her gift!
Gu Jinyu couldn't believe it, she was so excited!
"Is there anything else?" Gu Changqing asked.
