The old man couldn't help but show a smile of satisfaction: "very good, so many days have not come down, not only has not regressed, but also has made a lot of progress, that is, your style has changed a lot, grandfather can't understand you."
Gu Yu light way: "experience much, the view is different from before."
The old man nodded and sighed: "I didn't expect you to experience this, but it made you grow up even more. My ancestors have said before that the children who are pampered won't be promising."
Gu Yu didn't make any comments, but just listened quietly and remained silent as usual.
In this regard, the old man is naturally used to it. No matter how many things happen to his great grandson, his vision is different, and his temperament has not changed a bit. He is more flexible... But I have to say that the old man prefers this kind of grandson and granddaughter, and he doesn't like them.
"I heard that your Lu Shi is making trouble with you again?" The old man also played his black chess piece and asked.
Gu Yu stared at expectation and was silent.
The old man took it as his acquiescence: "I have said that she is not worthy of you. It's not my grandfather's opinion of family background. It's really a different environment. This idea is not in the same place. You, Lu Shi, may have helped you, and also have deep feelings for you. However, people from the countryside are far from you in terms of vision and knowledge. Now they can make trouble with you for one or two concubines, and in the future What should I do? Can't you live alone with her all your life? This woman is too selfish and jealous. "
Gu Yu
"Grandfather knows you are unconvinced, but have you ever thought about it? In the future, when you attend any occasion on behalf of the family, you must bring your wife with you. But she is such a rural woman. Can she be competent as a housewife? I'm afraid she's going to make a joke."
While talking, the old man sighed. Once upon a time, a rich young master met a country girl when he went out. He thought she was simple and kind and liked her very much, so he married her home.
But not long after they got married, the couple who had been in love with each other gradually turned into a resentful couple.
Because they have different world views, different pursuits, different quality of life and different requirements, they often quarrel with each other. His wife's ignorance and some bad habits that are hard to get rid of from childhood also make her a joke, and her mother-in-law can't get along with her.
In the end, the man walked with another well-known family lady and respected his former wife. He only said that he wanted to be a flat wife, but he didn't mean to give her up and let her continue to be a regular wife. But... On the night when the man married his new wife, the wife from the village killed herself with the golden scissors.
Originally, some high-ranking people who had no idea of family status had to consider this matter carefully.
"You are still young and have a long life in the future. Besides, the child in her belly is not yours. When it comes to responsibility, if you can give her a sum of money to make her live a carefree life in the future, it will be regarded as fulfilling the love of your husband and wife for several months."
"Pa", Gu Yu heavily put down a white chess piece, and then looked up at the old man with a cold expression: "grandfather, you lost."
The old man quickly looked down. Sure enough, there was no room for black chessmen on the chessboard. He couldn't help laughing: "well, well, grandfather won't say this. Let's have another one."
Gu Yu had no objection. He quickly cleaned up the chessboard and started a new round of the game.
"Your grandfather doesn't want to interfere too much in your business. You young people will handle it by yourself. You don't want your grandfather to take charge of it. Your grandfather doesn't want to take charge of it yet... But this time my grandfather called you, it's more important."
Gu Yu took a look at the old man.
"Your brother and his mother, during the period when you left, became more and more ambitious. They didn't know how much they had done under the banner of taking care of their family. My grandfather suspected that they were mother and son," the old man stared at Gu Yu, "secretly planning something, which is probably not good for taking care of their family."
"Does grandfather have evidence?"
"There's no evidence, but it's suspicious because there's no evidence. The shops that were handed over to Gu Cheng are completely out of the control of his grandfather. In other words, the real situation inside is that the business is to make money or lose money, and there's no way to know."
Gu Yu also had some accidents.
Gu's master is a man with a strong sense of control. Can Gu Cheng do this?
But what's more suspicious is... I heard the old man say: "since these shops are under the management of Gu Cheng, even if he is worried that I will take over the power one day, as long as he replaces the shopkeeper and slowly changes the partners, then it's not so easy for me to get them back.
What's more, before you come back, what he should do is to let my grandfather see his strength instead of hiding all the information. This will only make me more dissatisfied with them, unless there is something hidden in the shop that I must not know. "
Gu's family has a big business. Even if the shops that were given to Gu Cheng go bankrupt one day, they may be able to do some heavy damage to Gu's family, but they can't shake the core of Gu's family.
If Gu Cheng is really ambitious, he will not be limited to those shops. That's why the old master said that he should please the old master and let the old master see his strength so that he can give him more power. But what Gu Cheng does is the opposite.
"What does grandfather want me to do?" Gu Yu asked directly after listening.The old man laughed: "sure enough, yu'er is the one who wins my heart most. Yu'er knows that the Li family in Shangjing."
"What grandfather said was the Li family, the emperor merchant?"
"Exactly." The old man said, "in a few days, the Li family will send someone over to hold a cooking competition in Guang'an."
As the name suggests, imperial merchants represent some important industries run by the royal family. Many commodities will be connected with the royal family, including food and clothing. But is it strange to hold a cooking competition?
The old man explained: "it is said that there is a noble man in the palace who is suffering from anorexia recently. The officials are very worried about this. They want to call on the world's delicacies to see if they can improve the noble man's diet. Naturally, this matter is handed over to the Li family who often travels all over the world. No matter whether the last delicacy can get into the noble man's mouth or not, it will be helpful for us to take care of our family if we can connect with the Li family It's unimaginable. "
Although Guang'an is one of the most prosperous places in the world, it can't be compared with Shangjing. Moreover, Gu's official background is too weak, and it's too difficult to expand.
If you have the support of the Li family, then the development of Gu family can definitely speed up ten times!
"However, Gu Cheng is also playing with the idea of the Li family," the old man said with a heavy face. "He also has a restaurant on hand, and he also has two cooks who are good at cooking. Moreover, I don't know where his contacts are. The whole restaurant is booming, and the negotiation with the Li family is inevitable. I doubt who else is behind him... If you let him catch up with the Li family, even the people behind him So, in any case, he can't succeed. "
