Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 2173
After listening to Qu Xiucai and the others, they were finally relieved.

Gu Jinan looked at Mou Fang: "Master Mou, aren't you protecting Master Zhong? Why are you here?"

Mou Fang is a member of the Subduing Tiger Army, but his mission is to protect Lord Zhong, so he rarely returns to the camp.

Mou Fang said: "The man from Qianshan County came from a poor family and was charged with the heavy responsibility of hunting on behalf of the emperor. He Chengjin was a little impulsive, Mr. Zhong was worried, and ordered me to serve the man in Qianshan County for three years. Back to Mr. Zhong as an errand."

After hearing this, Gu Jinan felt relieved, Zhong Huan gave Lu Bai such a capable person to protect Lu Bai.

In short, Lu Bai is useful now, Zhong Huan and His Majesty will protect him, and will not let him die within three years.

"I'm sorry." Gu Jinli said, then went to see Lu Bai again, and asked him, "Do you want us to stay with you?"

Lu Bo shook his head and said with a smile: "No... I have to go on my own for the rest of the journey. You can't stay with me all the time."

After Gu Jinan and the others listened, they didn't stay any longer.

But before leaving, Gu Jin'an reminded him: "Your marriage is under serious scrutiny, so think about it."

Lu Bo said: "I'm thinking about it. If we don't want to get married for now, we'll first complete the errand of hunting on behalf of the emperor."

He has no one he likes, and he is very clear that after becoming a pawn for Emperor Jing Yuan to win people's hearts, he may not end well. He doesn't want to make people widowed, so he simply doesn't get married.

He laughed again: "It's you, hurry back and prepare gifts, go to Ouyang's house to meet the elders, if you don't go again, be careful that Ouyang's house doesn't want you as a grandson-in-law."

Gu Jin'an was forced to stay in the palace, which made him miss the time to visit Ouyang's house. He had to hurry to visit Ouyang's house while there was a holiday.

Gu Jin'an smiled and said: "Success, let's go back first and come to see you tomorrow. Your baron's mansion is very grand, and Hua Qianshan said this morning that he would come to visit the Yamen."

Lu Bo laughed and said, "Don't talk about visiting, just move in and live here."

Regardless of whether Lu Bai is pretending or sincere, in short, he is happy to see now, and Gu Jinan and the others can go back with peace of mind.

As soon as he arrived at the house, the concierge said, "Master Gu, the Ouyang family has sent a letter saying that you can come and visit tomorrow."

The capital is different from the countryside. In the countryside, you can go to a relative’s house without saying hello, but in the capital, you have to pass the post and wait until you get a reply before you come to the door. Otherwise, you will belittle others and have no rules.

Gu Jinan and the others grew up in the countryside, but after entering the capital, they had to abide by the rules of the capital.

"Understood, thank you." Gu Jinan took the reply from Ouyang's house, went back to the house, checked the presents, went out in the middle of the next day, and arrived at Ouyang's house in the middle of the morning.

The Ouyang family's house was bestowed by Emperor Jingwu, and it occupies quite a large area. It is a seven-entry mansion, and there are three gardens in the front, back, and middle, and two large lakes. When the men and women are entertaining guests, they can go boating on the big lakes. , do not interfere with each other.

In addition, there is a dense house in a street, which is for the servants of Ouyang's family.

It was the first time Gu Jin'an saw the so-called mansion of aristocratic family, and he was really shocked.

The Ouyang family attached great importance to Gu Jin'an's visit, and Master Ouyang Zhang specially asked for leave to receive him at home.

Old Mr. Ouyang Hong also ordered that Gu Jin'an must be treated with courtesy, and if he dared to make an issue of his background, don't worry about him using family law!
Therefore, Gu Jin'an stayed very comfortably in Ouyang's family, but he got along with the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Ouyang's family in one day.

There is no way, Mr. Ouyang Hong is much older than Ouyang Hu, and Ming'er is younger than Ouyang Zhang's eldest grandson.

But he took advantage of his seniority, and he felt inexplicably refreshed seeing a few people around his age calling him uncle.

And the gift he gave Mr. Ouyang Hong was a pushable word mill.

The people of Ouyang's family were amazed when they saw it: "What is this? But which is the new work of a master sculptor?"

Gu Jin'an smiled: "It's not a new work by a master...My father knows carpentry, and according to what the second sister said, I made it by myself, while I drew a ladle from a gourd and made this word grinder. I want to come in front of my uncle." Sell ​​it fresh... just push the words in the grinding block, and you can make these words into poems."

Ouyang Zhang asked, "Maybe you can expand the characters?"

Gu Jin'an nodded: "Yes, the character grinder is raised, as long as ink is applied, the characters can be rubbed off."

After all, I demonstrated it myself, saw Ouyang Zhang pounding the ground, and said Gu Jinan: "Brother An, your father has such a rare thing, you should take it out sooner, it can open up a whole book." , much faster than copying books.”

But Gu Jin'an said: "The literati pay attention to hard work in calligraphy when they study. If they wantonly make such things for convenience, they will be disliked by the literati."

Old Mr. Ouyang Hong nodded: "Brother An is right, but since this rare thing has been born, it should be passed on."

He looked at Ouyang Zhang and said, "Tomorrow, you can present this mill in the name of An Ge'er's father to the palace, and let His Majesty have a look. If His Majesty allows it, you can use this mill to develop more books. Let the books spread quickly throughout the great Chu, so that the children of poor families can benefit."

The aristocratic family didn't want the children of poor families to study, so they kept a lot of books privately and didn't let them go out. Even if the children of the same clan wanted to read, they could only copy them.

The slower the copying, the slower the circulation of books.

"Yes." Ouyang Zhang agreed.

Ouyang Hong looked at Gu Jin'an again, and said: "Although the word mill is strange, it can be easily reproduced. Even if His Majesty likes it, he will not reward your father."

The meaning is to let him not be too happy, such things will not get great benefits.

Gu Jin'an hurriedly said: "Don't worry, grandpa, this junior understands."

Seeing that he was not disappointed, Ouyang Hong nodded in satisfaction.

After Gu Jinan had dinner at Ouyang's house, he was sent back by the housekeeper of Ouyang's house.

Two days later, it was Lu Bai's knighthood banquet, and the door of the baron's mansion opened wide to welcome the congratulations from all the families in the capital.

There were really many people who came to this feuding banquet, ranging from the royal family to traffickers and pawns, it can be regarded as a real joy with the people.

And this is what Emperor Jing Yuan wanted.

However, there were so many people in a mess, and the palace was afraid of accidents. Emperor Jing Yuan sent a group of Imperial Forest Army to maintain order, and even sent the Great Inner Supervisor.

With the eunuchs present, the aristocratic families, high-ranking officials and nobles knew that His Majesty wanted to protect Lu Bai, and they could not lose face to Lu Bai, so although they were sick to sit with the traffickers and pawns, they were smiling all the time, no Dare to make faces.

"Mr. Lu County, congratulations, we are only able to enter the baron's mansion for a banquet because of your honor!" It was Chen Xiaoba who spoke, and they were also invited.

Lu Bo thanked them very much, and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I let you suffer a torture because of me."

Chen Xiaoba waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu's words are too polite. Brothers help you voluntarily, and we don't have white gangs..."

He lowered his voice, and said to Lu Bai: "The Ruan family sent us a thousand taels of silver, and we have become rich."
