Chapter 148： Wish (one more)

Chapter 148 Fulfillment (one more)

Gu Yuan was on duty in the palace last night, and only came back from the palace this morning. As soon as he returned to the mansion, he learned from the little servant Wutong that Gu Yanfei was punished by Mrs. Tai to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Although my sister was smart and didn't suffer, in the past two months, Mrs. Tai has targeted her sister time and time again, which is simply too deceiving.

Gu Yuan looked at Madam Gu Tai's eyes as cold as ice, decisively like a sword.

The entire front room was silent, and everyone else looked at the grandparents in silence.

Gu Jian frowned, and said in a high-spirited tone, "Brother Yuan, today is a big day for ancestor worship, don't be petty and foolish!"

"Everything the elders do is for your own good!"

He has a sincere and sincere look.

Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were distant, and he said coldly, "Master Hou is also a nephew by playing hands and feet on the bowstring?"

What's the meaning? ! Most of the other Gu family members present did not know about this, and could not help looking at each other.

"..." Gu Jian's face turned blue slightly, and he was speechless for a while.

He wanted to say that Gu Yuan had misunderstood, and wanted to put it away vaguely, but saw Gu Yuan greeted with a half-smile, "Master, is your arm ready?"

While speaking, Gu Yuan's gaze turned meaningfully on Gu Jian's injured arm, which attracted the gazes of others.

Immediately someone remembered that the reason why Gu Jian's right arm was injured seemed to be caused by the broken rhino horn bow, but judging from the meaning of Gu Yuan's words now, isn't this an "accident"?

Thinking about it, the eyes of everyone looking at Gu Jian became meaningful, and everyone had their own guesses.

"..." Gu Jian felt that their eyes were pierced with thorns, and his face darkened again, and his right shoulder to right arm was aching.

Of course not!

Now his injured arm is in a plaster cast, and his right forearm is bandaged over his chest. He looks like he has the words "I am a wounded" written on his body, and anyone can see his injury. not good.

Gu Yuan, this kid is asking knowingly!

The more Gu Jian thought about it, the more displeased she became, and she couldn't help but think more and more. After chewing on Gu Yuan's words repeatedly, she felt that there was a needle hidden in the cotton, and Gu Yuan was clearly mocking himself for what he deserved.

How dare Gu Yuan in the past dare to be so rude to his uncle, this kid just relied on the fact that he is in Luanyiwei now, and he is proud of the spring breeze, so he is floating!

Gu Jian gritted his teeth secretly, assumed the posture of Dingyuan Hou, raised his voice and scolded: "Yuan brother, you are so unruly, disobedient to the elders, believe it or not, this Hou can take you a book..."

While speaking, Gu Jian was somewhat annoyed and angry. In front of two younger brothers and a group of juniors, being ridiculed by his nephew made him feel that his face was dull.

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Gu Tai's cold voice:

"enough."

Mrs. Gu Tai's voice was neither light nor heavy, but loud, and at the same time, she gave Gu Jian a wink, motioning him to stop talking nonsense.

Gu Jian had to shut his mouth embarrassedly, not quite convinced.

Gu Yuan didn't care about the lawsuit between mother and son, he brushed off the dust on his shoulders that didn't exist at all, the corners of his lips drew a mocking arc, and sighed:

"Mrs. Tai, Lord Hou, what a great style, one is going to send his granddaughter to the nunnery, and the other is going to take a copy of his nephew..."

"Sister, aren't you frightened?" Gu Yuan turned his head to look at Gu Yanfei, and took out a new handkerchief for her, "Don't be afraid, there is a brother."

Gu Yanfei took the handkerchief handed over by Gu Yuan very cooperatively, and pretended to wipe the corners of his eyes, nodding straight with bright eyes: "I'm not afraid if my brother is here."

Her voice was crisp, and she had to be as well-behaved as she was.

Gu Yuan took advantage of this and rubbed the top of her soft hair.

The corner of Mrs. Gu Tai's mouth twitched, and she glanced back and forth between Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunzhen.

She was so far away that she could smell the wine on these two girls, so she must have drank a lot this night. Gu Yanfei was almost out of control, but he was too embarrassed to say "fear"!

These brothers and sisters are clearly taking advantage of the topic to play!

Gu Yanfei didn't bother to hide the smell of alcohol at all, and continued to wipe the unwarranted tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, as if he was wearing a special scented sachet.

The front hall fell into a dead silence, and the dark tide was surging.

Looking at the brothers and sisters Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei in front of them, Mrs. Gu Tai's eyes darkened little by little, holding the string of Buddhist beads tightly in one hand.

Before the emperor sealed the pen, the Ministry of War sent a transfer order to the Houfu, saying that Gu Jian had a hand injury and it was difficult to take the original post, so he was transferred from the Zuoye army deputy governor to the left-behind division.

Although the rank has not changed, the Zuoye Army is one of the five military battalions, and the left-behind division is only protecting the imperial tomb, and has no real power at all. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "cold bench".

Madam Gu Tai has been upset for several days because of this order.

If things go on like this, the Houfu will continue to go downhill and become a declining Houfu with no real power.

At present, only Gu Yuan's errand in Luan Yiwei is still on the table, and he supports the last layer of face for the Hou Mansion.

At this time, we must not separate the family, let alone make the scene unmanageable,

The silence lasted for too long, until the others subconsciously held their breaths, and faintly felt a kind of depression before the storm.

The long house was suppressed for eight years, and now with the rise of Gu Yuan, the pattern of this mansion seems to have changed.

In the end, Mrs. Gu Tai was the first to break the silence: "Brother Yuan, what do you want?"

She asked word by word, her voice calm and clear, but it made people feel more stressed.

"Separate." Gu Yuan said coldly.

"Impossible." Mrs. Gu Tai objected without saying a word, and her firm tone could not be questioned.

This is her bottom line!

Gu Yuan looked directly at Mrs. Gu Tai without evading, her pupils were as quiet and cold as a frozen lake.

His stubborn attitude made Mrs. Gu Tai feel a little unsure: Gu Yuan was always a stubborn and stubborn child.

Therefore, Mrs. Gu Tai put down her body and persuaded in a good voice: "Brother Yuan, your parents are gone, but my grandmother is still there."

"Parents are there, no separation, this is the same principle through the ages, which is not the case in any household in the capital."

"One of you and your second sister has not reached the crown, the other has not reached the crown, and is still a minor, how can you stand on your own!"

Gu Yuan's eyes were cold and still, and he still remembered the teachings of his father when he was alive.

At that time, his father asked him, "Brother Yuan, if you want to find someone who doesn't like you and ask for a sword, what would you do?"

He waved his fist and said, "Beat him."

Daddy laughed sullenly and said, "What if you can't beat it?"

When he frowned and thought hard, his father smiled and taught him: "You just ask for all the weapons of the other party, and then bargain step by step. Do you understand?"

At that time, Gu Yuan was only four or five years old, and he still didn’t understand.

And now Gu Yuan has understood.

Gu Yuan's chin was slightly raised, sketching a stern arc, which seemed to be pondering. This time he said slowly: "It's okay to not be separated."

"Then the matter of the long house, Mrs. Tai and Lord Hou will not be concerned about it."

"My sister's marriage will be decided by my eldest brother, so that Mrs. Tai will not arbitrarily appoint my sister to some messy people to "Chong Xi"."

Gu Yanfei was slightly startled.

She didn't expect that the big brother's trouble today was just for her.

The matter of marriage pays attention to the life of the parents. The eldest house loses the father and the mother. It stands to reason that Mrs. Tai is indeed qualified to decide her marriage.

Although for Gu Yanfei, if she is unwilling, there is no one in this world who can force her.

However, the big brother thought about her in such detail, and it still made her heart warm and sweet, like drinking sweet sugar water.

Mrs. Gu Tai slowly looked away, suppressing the displeasure in her heart.

The hall was quiet again, and needles could be heard falling.

After deliberation, Mrs. Gu Tai managed to squeeze a word between her teeth: "Okay."

"I promise you."

She finally nodded with difficulty, feeling uncomfortable, as if something was out of her palm.

She doesn't like it.

Gu Jian's eyes widened and she instinctively wanted to object, but she was afraid that Mrs. Gu Tai closed her mouth after all, her face sinking like water.

Gu Yuan snapped his fingers loudly: "If you say that there is no evidence, then ask Mrs. Tai to write a deed, and then sign it."

The words   "nonsense" had reached Mrs. Gu's lips, but she still bit her tongue and swallowed it.

Gu Yuan didn't care about Mrs. Gu Tai's reaction at all, and greeted his little servant Wutong to bring silk paper and pen and ink and put it on a large red sandalwood case.

"Mrs. Tai, please." Gu Yuan reached out to Mrs. Gu to make a petition and asked her to write a deed.

Mrs. Gu Tai doesn't like this feeling of being forced, she can't wait to walk away, but she's already said that, she's already backed down to this point, and she can't fall short at this time.

She is now like the arrow on the string that has to be fired.

The phoenix tree on the side quickly polished the ink, and a faint scent of ink mixed into the surrounding sandalwood and candle incense.

Mrs. Gu Tai swallowed her saliva, walked slowly to the front of the case, slowly picked up the wolf pen, and wrote with it.

Looking at her stiff back, everyone else was stunned.

No one expected that things would develop in this direction.

After a while, Mrs. Gu Tai wrote a letter of deed, then signed it at the signing place, and pressed the cinnabar with her thumb to draw the letter.

Gu Yuan leaned over, read the contents of the book deed, and was quite satisfied.

He personally blew the ink on the silk paper, and handed the precious and valuable book to Gu Yanfei. He urged, "Sister, put it away carefully."

Gu Yanfei nodded obediently, carefully folded the silk paper, and smiled.

This is the big brother's intention for her, she will keep it well... When she goes back, she will frame her!

Gu Yuan's smiling eyes shifted from Gu Yanfei to Gu Yunzhen, and said, "And sister Zhen's marriage..."

A kind of strong dissatisfaction accumulated in Mrs. Gu Tai's heart, until this moment, the surging anger finally broke out uncontrollably.

"Gu Yuan, don't go too far!"

Mrs. Gu Tai interrupted Gu Yuan angrily, her eyes burning like a torch.

She has already promised the Murong family that she will let Gu Yunzhen pass by today, there is absolutely no possibility of changing this matter.

Gu Yun really didn't want Gu Yuan to offend Mrs. Gu Tai for himself, so he quickly pulled his sleeve and shook his head silently.

"Big brother," Gu Yanfei said with a smile, "eldest sister's marriage will be decided by her grandfather."

"soon."

She said this very meaningfully.
