Chapter 142 Laba
What happened to the three houses of the Gu family shocked the government and the opposition.
The value of the 400 catties of gold, to a non- hereditary general of Fengguo, will be a big loss.
But he donated the army and rushed for military funds. His pure heart was pure and kind, which was for the benefit of the people.
In this way, he sacrifices himself for the public, and his emotions move the world.
There are praises everywhere in Jingli.
Uncle Gu Yantao also said, "Winning such a good reputation has greatly helped Gu's prestige. The third brother has been stupid since he was a child, but this time he did an open thing! This time, I also showed a big face in front of the emperor and hundreds of officials!"
The aunt listened and smiled, but she was also surprised.
She is conceited and a little more knowledgeable than others, but she can't make a big deal like Sanfang.
So much money was donated to the imperial court...
I can't bear to think about it.
In exchange for the general of Fengguo, Shiyi is only 600 stones a year, and it can't be hereditary.
This is an affair, and naturally it can't be taken out. At this moment, the Gu family is praised everywhere in Beijing, and the old lady should do the same: "The third house's behavior this time is really unexpected. However, the march in the court and the treasury is empty. It is also their benevolence and charity to fill these plans for the world.
The old man doesn't care about the heart of the third room.
The purpose is enough.
The third room raised the face of the Gu family this time!
I also heard about the second room.
The second master has a little toothache: "So much gold, if you say donate, just donate..." If you miss a point from his fingers, he can also ease the constraints at home.
If he had known that the third room was so generous, he would have asked to borrow some huāhu, which was better than the third room.
Isn't the second lady?
"A group of prodigal!" She also covered her chest and wished to cry.
So much money, if you don't have it, it's gone. It's good to give them a little bit.
"That prodigal woman of the Song family!" The second lady was so angry that she scolded, "So much money, in exchange for a general of Fengguo, she herself got the order of a good man. With so much money, even if you don't have Shuren's fate, you can walk side by side!"
She only talks about interests, not fame.
I'm also happy with the three rooms.
After listening to Gu Jinzhi's analysis of the pros and cons, Song Paner felt that the money was in her hand, but it was a scourge.
Donate it, and she doesn't expect to get anything in exchange. This was originally a reward given by the emperor, not earned by the Gu family. Song Pan'er was not very distressed.
Now that she can solve Gu Yanzhen's hardships in reading and get the fate of Shuren, she still feels that she has made money.
The happiest thing is Gu Yanzhen.
Reading is nothing more than finding a way out.
Now that he has a title, he doesn't want to study anymore if he can be a free general.
"...It's just that it can't be hereditary." In addition to being happy, he was also a little worried, "Although he can be married, he can't be shaded. In the future, the children..."
Song Pan'er fell aside and smiled.
She never thought that one day Gu Yanzhen would be able to shine the lintel and make his wife shade.
In the past, he only expected him to rely on a scholar for his birth. In the future, his children's marriage would not make people make a big mistake. Now that she has the title, Song Pan'er's mind has also been reached. What else does she expect?
"A good man does not divide his family, and his children will not be promising in the future. Even if you give them a hereditary title, you will lose it sooner or later." Song Pan'er smiled and said, "Speaking about it, you have four sons. Who do you leave them to? Why don't you break your head in the future? No, no, no, no trouble!"
Even if you study, there are very few people who can earn a title.
Gu Yanzhen laughed.
He likes Song Pan'er's attitude very much.
People always look at the distance in front of them, and it is difficult to be satisfied.
Gu Yanzhen has no lofty ideals. He is very contented. Fortunately, Song Paner is not greedy.
After receiving his wife's affirmation and comfort, Gu Yanzhen threw this little disappointment behind his mind and began to invite a few close friends to drink outside.
The state-owned war is not suitable for a big feast.
The Gu family didn't do anything, but Song Pan'er didn't care about Yanzhen's outside to celebrate with his friends.
After two days, the aunt personally sent a congratulatory gift with her lobby sister-in-law and third cousin-in-law.
Song Pan'er left them for dinner and deliberately asked, "Why didn't the second sister-in-law come?" I don't dare to go out. I'm not in good body. The second sister-in-law also refused to surrender to the precious land..."
The eldest lady and the big * milk and the third grandmother just laughed.
After that, Jiang, Hu Zeyu's wife, also took Hu Jie with a congratulatory gift to congratulate her.
Mrs. Hu looked at it and felt quite uncomfortable.
In the past, in Yanling Mansion, the situation of the two families was almost the same. Why did the Gu family let the Buddha ascend to the sky in one step when he arrived in Beijing?
First, he got the favor of the Empress Dowager and was rewarded to live so quickly; then, he was awarded the title, and Song Pan'er was also ordered, and she was no longer the same person as Mrs. Hu.
When she went back, Mrs. Hu muttered to Hu Jie.
Hu Jie looked at it and her eyes were hot. She sighed and said, "Gu Jinzhi has the ability. She has good medical skills, and she deserves it.
That's fair.
Gu Jinzhi is grent to Hu Jie.
Although Mrs. Hu was jealous, she didn't say anything unpleasant and took her daughter home.
Looking at his narrow courtyard, his son didn't even win a scholar because of bad luck. Mrs. Hu was full of loss. She went home and fell asleep and didn't have dinner.
I feel quite uncomfortable.
Hu Zeyu drank with Gu Yanzhen and didn't come back until the night.
Within two days, the princess of Nanchang next door also asked someone to give a small gift to congratulate the Gu family for getting the reward.
This is a sign of goodwill.
Princess Nanchang can't come to visit Song Pan'er first.
After receiving a congratulatory gift from others, Song Pan'er could not be proud of anything. The next day, he took Gu Jinzhi to visit Princess Nanchang.
Zhu Zhongjun insisted on following him.
Princess Nanchang is also from the south of the Yangtze River. Wu Nong's soft language is very similar to Song Pan'er's accent. After listening to Jingli's words and suddenly hearing the local accent, Princess Nanchang's expression became kind.
She is only in her twenties this year, but she is very calm.
"I haven't been in Beijing for a long time." Princess Nanchang smiled and said, "I lived there for half a year, so I followed the prince to Jiangxi. I'm not familiar with everyone, and the prince doesn't like me to walk around. We live in two families and often come to the same place to talk.
"I'm also from Beijing." Song Pan'er smiled and quickly told her experience.
Princess Nanchang was surprised that her experience with Song Pan'er was so similar.
There are more words for the two of them.
Gu Jinzhi sat aside and listened.
Zhu Zhongjun is a fool in front of people. He eats snacks, pulls Gu Jinzhi's sleeves, and stays quietly beside Gu Jinzhi.
"My son likes the shortbread sent by Miss Gu last time very much." Princess Nanchang smiled and said, "The prince tasted a piece and said it was delicious. After the New Year, if you have free time, please teach me."
"Why are you waiting for the New Year?" Song Pan'er is very enthusiastic. "That shortbread is made by a girl on my side. You have a woman and maid who is good at pastry. Send one over, and you will learn..."
Princess Nanchang didn't expect Song Pan'er to be so straightforward.
She was stunned, and then agreed.
Sure enough, she sent a woman to learn how to make shortbread and other snacks for Mu Qing that day.
Mu Qing's craftsmanship is handed down from home. Her ancestors opened a small pastry shop, which is famous for its good craftsmanship. However, after the death of the foreign ancestor, my uncle didn't learn it, and the business was lonely; Mu Qing's mother would do it, but she didn't want to do that business, so she would rather go to a big family to find a job.
Mu Qing learned from her mother.
She gave the Meihuā shortbread and a few other snacks to the woman on the side of the king of Nanchang.
That woman is the dowry of Princess Nanchang. She came from the south of the Yangtze River and also taught Mu Qing several small skills in the south of the Yangtze River.
As soon as you come and go, you will have a little friendship.
At Laba, the Empress Dowager finally found an excuse and recruited the King of Luyang and Gu Jinzhi into the palace.
The emperor also thought about his other brother in the capital, so he ordered the king of Nanchang to take the princess and the prince into the palace and accompany the empress dowager to eat Laba porridge.
The concubines above the second grade are also here.
There is no need to go to court today, and the emperor arrived early.
The five-year-old prince, the three-year-old princess, and the one-year-old second princess are also accompanied by the maids in their respective palaces and sit quietly.
Gu Jinzhi met the sixth sister Gu Wanzhi.
She is a second-grade virtuous concubine, with exquisite makeup, which is more beautiful than putting Buddha at home.
Gu Jinzhi's identity is embarrassing, and he doesn't know how to sit down.
Zhu Zhongjun only took her hand and didn't let go.
In this era, it is already hierarchical enough. Since he wants to pretend to be a fool, he should get all the benefits of being a fool back, such as pulling Gu Jinzhi to be unruly and do whatever he wants.
Finally, Gu Jinzhi sat next to the King of Luyang like Princess Nanchang.
It's not surprising that everyone looks at it.
The king of Luyang pulled Gu Jinzhi. Who in the palace didn't know?
It's no wonder that you're used to it.
The Empress Dowager said yes, who dares to say no?
Even if you think it's not polite, you only dare to mutter in your heart and dare not show half of it on the surface.
After drinking Laba porridge, I sat down with the Empress Dowager and was about to leave.
The Empress Dowager left Zhu Zhongjun again.
"...The emperor has told the Ai family about your family." When the Empress Dowager mentioned the thing that Gu Jin's family did, her tone was full of relief, "That's good, it's a good start!" It's just that the gold was originally given to you by the emperor, and you sent it back..."
"It's not short to eat and drink at home." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "The state-owned war should have been devoured. We just used huā to donate the emperor's reward. It's not worth anything. Instead, we got another title. It's all the emperor's kindness.
The Empress Dowager knew that Gu Jinzhi knew very well the situation of herself and the King of Luyang, and sighed.
I don't know who the Gu family gave the advice later.
Is it Gu Shifei?
With this wisdom, the king of Luyang is a good wife.
The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction.
The Empress Dowager asked Zhu Zhongjun if he was okay.
Zhu Zhongjun said yes and drilled into the empress dowager's arms.
The Empress Dowager liked it so much that she kept them for lunch and didn't let Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi go home until the afternoon.
The Gu family sent Laba porridge to many people.
There are also rewards in the palace.
Song Pan'er also sent it one by one.
"... Today, Mrs. Hu and Hu Jie came and said something for half a day." Song Paner said to Gu Jin, "I heard that Marquis Yongxi has dysentery and has not recovered for almost half a month. Mrs. Hu came to tell me. Do you expect me to tell you after listening to it? Did you run and have a look?
Gu Jinzhi smiled.
Song Paner seriously took Gu Jinzhi's hand and said, "Hou Ning's family, haven't you raised your memory? These people in Beijing are all human spirits, unlike Yanling Mansion, where the folk customs are simple. After healing him, it's rare to say a word of thanks. Instead, he got into trouble. It's not worth it!"
"Mom, I wrote it down." Gu Jin said, "I'll listen to you."
Only then did Song Pan'er smile with satisfaction.
