C47 (1/2)
He had probably accidentally touched the wound, causing him to grit his teeth in pain. However, his complexion soon returned to normal, and if Gu Wu hadn't heard the sound of him clenching his teeth, he would have still thought that the attack just now was just an illusion.
Mian Niang carried the toilet in her hand and was about to pour it down.
It was in this kind of face-to-face situation that Gu Yan flashed an unfathomable smile at Mian Niang, but Mian Niang only felt that it was extremely dangerous.
Mian Niang guessed that when she set up the trap yesterday, it was probably because she had the same smile on her face.
Gu Wen walked forward and cupped his fist at the Elementary Scholar, ”May I ask if this is the home of the Mehanlin's Duke.”
This was the first time the Elementary Scholar had met such a rich person. The carriage, the robes, the jades, and the servants were all in his dreams. He stared blankly at the young lord who had just walked down from the carriage.
This person seemed to have everything he had dreamed of, including his healthy, rosy complexion.
His servant, honorably called himself ”Master Mei,” a title worthy of only the masters of the city.
He was just an Elementary Scholar, he was just an Elementary Scholar …
The Elementary Scholar regained his senses and quickly cupped his hands and bowed before saying, ”I am Mehanlin, may I know who you are?”
It was probably due to him being too nervous. His etiquette was all wrong. His left hand was on the inside while his right was on the outside.
Fortunately, he quickly realized his mistake and quickly corrected himself.
”Sir Mei, I am a disciple of the Gu family, and yesterday I was injured in the forest by three hoes. Fortunately, your wife saved me, so I came here today to express my gratitude.”
”It's the young master of the Gu family.”
The tofu hyacinth whispered to the May-Second Aunt from inside the house.
”Which Gu family?”
May-Second Aunt still hadn't woken up yet.
”Which Gu family do you think it is? It's that Gu family after all.”
tofu hyacinth rolled his eyes at her.
May-Second Aunt was suddenly enlightened. ”It's that Gu family who became the marquis' marquis in the capital due to the merits of the dragon?”
”Other than his family, who else could it be?”
The Elementary Scholar had already understood who was coming. The Gu family, the most illustrious family in the radius of several hundred or even thousands of miles, the Marquis of Ju, the son of the Heavenly Emperor himself. When he was young, he had almost heard the story of the Gu Hou from the teacher in the academy.
He yearned for and envied such families, and there was even a hint of hidden jealousy, jealousy that they had made the right bet at the right time, and had made the whole family rich by virtue of their dragon deeds.
He had a nagging feeling that if it was him, he might be able to gain some merits that day and gain a bright future.
”Young Master Gu, come in quickly.”
He went up to her and smiled for the first time since they were married.
He personally opened the courtyard door, and after taking a good look at Gu Xin's clothes at close range, he invited him in.
tofu hyacinth straightened her clothes, gritted her teeth, and got May-Second Aunt to help her off the ground. She walked out, but before she could even walk out the door, her laughter had already drifted outside the walls.
”The magpie is chirping on the tree this morning, I thought it had some good business, so it's an honorable guest. Young Master Gu, please come in.”
When she walked out of the door, she saw Mian Niang standing at the entrance holding onto the toilet, her smile instantly froze, and she immediately pushed at the person, and said softly: ”What are you daydreaming for, hurry up and pour that stupid pickled thing over.”
He raised his head and put on a smiling face as he faced Gu Han.
”Young Master Gu, come in quickly.”
Gu Yue saw her actions, and a trace of malice flashed in her eyes. However, she quickly turned around and left, quickly returning to her polite and refined mask.
”Aunt Mei Family, we've met before, do you still remember that we were born late?”
This call of ”Aunt Mei Family” made tofu hyacinth beam with joy, and he hurriedly replied, ”I remember, I remember, we were face to face, how could I not remember?”
Mian Niang was too lazy to care about them as she carried the toilet to the backyard.
Gu Xin had long anticipated what kind of attitude she would have. Therefore, he didn't think that it was a pestle, but when he saw her limping feet, he couldn't help but feel tender towards her in his heart.
However, he did not show it on his face. He only walked into the courtyard of the Mei Family with a calm expression and smiled at the attention paid to him by the mother and son.
Gu Wenguwu was secretly shocked by Mian Niang's attitude. The young master actually did not get angry and left, it could be seen, that the female mother was becoming more and more important in the young master's heart.
In fact, the two of them were already very surprised when Gu Xin went back alone in the rain yesterday afternoon without getting angry.
