Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

Zhao Ning looked at the young man in front of him in surprise. Of course he knew Gu Lekang, his teacher's half-brother. He had met him three years ago, but at that time he was a high-spirited, proud and willful young man. Now...

Gu Lekang stood with his hands folded, calmly raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Ning, and said with a faint smile, "Please introduce Mr. Zhao on your behalf."

It took Zhao Ning a long time to recover his voice, "You, Mr. Gu, if you want to see Mr., you can hand over the invitation card. Why do you need me to introduce you? You are Mr.'s younger brother. I think Mr. will meet you."

Gu Lekang shook his head slightly, "I would also like to ask Mr. Zhao to help me. If Mr. Gu is willing to see me, I will wait in the Zhuangyuan Building at noon tomorrow. If you don't want to, I will pretend that I have not mentioned it."

"Fourth master!" Chang Shun, who was standing behind Gu Lekang, couldn't help calling out.

Gu Lekang ignored him, but nodded slightly to Zhao Ning, turned around and left.

Zhao Ning scratched his head in doubt and asked, "What's the matter with him, since he just wants to see Mr. at the door, why go around such a big circle to ask me to introduce him?"

Shi Wei said with complicated eyes: "Because he didn't want to embarrass Mr. Gu, didn't you realize that we were the only ones at the door?"

As a talented person who has always been suppressed by the genius Gu Lekang, Shi Wei is very familiar with this "enemy" who doesn't have the same temperament. , Laughing at his companions and so on, now all his negative characters have settled down, and he has become calm and forbearing.

And it seems that the most precious quality in him has not dissipated.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, he still has to say that Gu Lekang is a very bottom-line person, and he is also a person who values ​​his family very much.

Just to get his grandfather's praise, this person can stay in the academy for six hours a day and fight, the kind that he can even forget to eat.

So Shi Wei and others are jealous of him, but they are convinced from the bottom of their hearts. After all, when it comes to hard work, they are not as good as him.

And they are all working hard for the imperial examination, so they will bother to manage contacts, Gu Lekang...

Gu Lekang used to be a genius who could only read books. Although he was amazingly talented, he was also proud and conceited. He was surrounded by people who supported him.

Shi Wei sighed, "You don't know, he used to look at people from the corner of his eye, which was very annoying. Among his peers in the capital, except for the students of Changfeng Academy, no one wanted to be friends with him. Once the situation fell, the first to alienate him were those classmates who had been surrounding him."

"Although his previous personality was indeed very bad, he was still very loyal to his friends. If he could help everyone in any difficulties, he would help everyone, and he would give money and effort. Those around him only need to get Ask him for homework, he will not hide his secrets..." Because of knowing this, when Gu Lekang was ridiculed as an adulterer, Zhongyonghou's mansion fell, and Gu Huaijin's face was stripped and stepped on the ground, Shi, who was his old enemy, Wei and Zheng Xucai didn't follow the crowd to step on it. Instead, they deliberately downplayed Gu Lekang's existence in the circle. No one thought of him, so no one would insult him again.

Zhao Ning looked at Shi Wei in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so emotional."

Shi Wei came back to his senses, the expression on his face changed, he kicked and said: "You talk less and do more, go and report to Mr. Gu, I think there is something wrong with the servant behind Gu Lekang. It’s like coming to watch him, if Mr. Gu doesn’t want to see him, then he can refuse as soon as possible, I don’t think Gu Lekang will force it.”

Of course, Gu Lekang would not force it. There are many ways to meet Gu Jingyun, but he chose the one that took the longest time, was the most troublesome, and also worried about Gu Jingyun's mood the most.

No matter how estranged they are, they are brothers by blood. Gu Lekang can visit Gu's mansion directly. Gu Jingyun doesn't bother to embarrass him in this regard, but seeing his half-brother suddenly will definitely not be in a good mood.

You can also go directly to the academy to visit, and stop the car directly on the road. These methods are useless for Gu Lekang. Instead, he asked Zhao Ning to help pass the message, whether you want to see me or not, come if you want, and forget it if you don’t.

It can be said that he took good care of Gu Jingyun's body and mind, but Gu Jingyun himself really doesn't mind seeing him.

Because he had a good life recently, when he heard the news about Gu Lekang, the smile on his face did not change. Instead, he nodded with a smile and said: "I only have two classes tomorrow morning, and I can finish school before noon, but I can go there .”

He also looked at Li Baolu with interest, "Will you go or not? I'll treat you to mandarin fish. I heard that it's made by a chef newly invited from Suzhou. It's very authentic."

Li Baolu drooled for a while, but finally shook her head and said, "I have a lot of classes tomorrow morning."

Gu Jingyun regretted, "Then you must not be able to eat it."

"Actually, you can pack it for me," Li Baolu said bluntly, "It shouldn't take much time for you to meet him, and we'll eat together when the time comes."

The corner of Gu Jingyun's mouth twitched slightly, "Then wait for me to come back, let's not go to the cafeteria, let's go to the dormitory, it's so cold, you can light a brazier in the dormitory to keep warm."

Li Baolu nodded repeatedly, "I'll go back to light the brazier right after school, and the room should be heated when you come back."

Gu Jingyun nodded happily, and made an appointment with Li Baolu for the itinerary at noon tomorrow.

Zhao Ning on the side couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, sir, if you don't want my wife to go to the Qiuzhi Garden alone, just say so, why bother to make such a big circle? Not too tired to panic.

Gu Jingyun was not tired at all. After class the next day, someone sent a note to Li Baolu, telling her to light a fire to warm the house as soon as possible. It was very cold today, and he felt a little bit cold.

Then go to Zhuangyuan Building.

It was nearly an hour before noon, but he knew that Gu Lekang might have been waiting there long ago.

Gu Lekang was standing by the window of a box on the second floor, looking at the hustle and bustle below, and he let out a faint breath after a while.

In fact, the capital city has not changed. He thinks it has changed because his mood has changed.

Gu Lekang turned around and was about to go back to the table to sit down when he saw Erlin driving a carriage parked under the restaurant. He was slightly startled and poked his head out to look.

Seeing Gu Jingyun getting out of the car in plain clothes, he raised his head and looked straight at him who leaned out.

Gu Jingyun showed a smile, raised his foot and walked in, Gu Lekang had already turned around and walked out of the box to greet him.

He looked at Gu Jingyun who was walking up the stairs in a rather bewildered manner, and he blushed slightly and bowed to the end when he got to him, "Brother, brother..."

Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, turned around and entered the box.

Gu Lekang breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly followed.

As soon as Chang Shun's eyes lit up, he wanted to follow in, but Gu Lekang stopped and turned around to look at him, with a stern look in his eyes, "You should wait outside."

"Fourth master!"

Gu Lekang looked at him sharply, and Erlin quickly smiled and pulled Chang Shun back, "Uncle Chang Shun, we haven't seen each other for a long time, why don't you chat with me outside?"

Chang Shun twitched the corner of his mouth, and responded stiffly.

Only then did Gu Lekang enter the box and close the door.

Gu Jingyun was standing at the window looking out, and turned around to look at him when he heard the sound, "Is he here to spy on you?"

Gu Lekang lowered his head.

Gu Jingyun sneered, "Let me guess, the person who ordered this must not be Master Gu, he would not be so stupid, you are his most promising and promising grandson, he will not let you be with him, The one who is separated from Zhongyonghou's mansion is Gu Huaijin, isn't he locked up, why, was he released?"

Gu Lekang lowered his eyes and poured him a cup of tea.

Gu Jingyun caressed the tea wall lightly, seeing that the corner of his mouth was tightly pursed and not speaking, he asked curiously, "Why did you see me?"

Gu Lekang opened his mouth wide, he just wanted Chang Shun to see him working hard to come to Gu Jingyun, he really didn't think about what he would say after seeing Gu Jingyun.

Gu Lekang's mind was in chaos, and he stammered for a long time: "I, I'm going back to my hometown. I don't know when we will meet next time, so I'll come and see you."

Gu Jingyun frowned, raised his eyes and looked at Gu Lekang seriously.

Seeing him lowering his head and picking his fingers nervously with both hands, he couldn't help frowning. What's wrong with it, he exposed his nervousness to the fullest.

He frowned and said: "Didn't you come back to participate in next year's Spring Festival, and now you are leaving again?"

Gu Lekang explained dryly: "There is still a while before Chunwei, and I will be in a hurry to come back after the new year."

Gu Jingyun loosened his brows, leaned on the chair relaxedly, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "It's Gu Huaijin who is making trouble again, are you going to send him back to the ancestral house?"

Gu Lekang looked up at him in surprise.

Gu Jingyun sneered, "Master Gu has a big heart."

He looked Gu Lekang up and down, and said with a frown: "A word of advice, you should never stop being disturbed by it. Going out of Beijing at this time is tantamount to giving up next year's spring. You have to wait another three years. Although I have never seen you The current level, but I think it should be even worse than it was three years ago. It should not be difficult to get in, it’s just a matter of ranking. But the imperial examination is also like a battlefield. You gave up once three years ago, this time you don’t enter or have an accident on the field, and stay until the third time..."

Gu Jingyun looked at him with a sneer and said: "Once you fail in the examination room, you will fall into a strange circle. You can't pass the test no matter what. The more you want to pass the test, the more you fail the test. You will be just a juren all your life, and you will be trapped in the capital all your life." If you can’t go out, can you be an impregnable wall and not care about the gossip of the world?”

Gu Lekang's eyes turned red, and he looked up at him, "Then what about you, why are you not afraid of the world's gossip? Are you an impregnable wall?"

Gu Jingyun looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Naturally you are not afraid if you have a strong mind, you can't do it."

Gu Lekang couldn't help crying on the table, he really couldn't do it, he told himself in his heart that he didn't care, so he acted indifferently and calmly, but how could he really not care?
