Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 765 Also surnamed Gu?

He tiptoed to look around in the huge living room, and asked Mr. Li: "Uncle Li, the clothes that man is wearing look very decent, which family's master is he from?"

With a glance, he asked another young man wearing a leather jacket: "This one is better dressed, and that fur is not cheap, whose family is it?"

Li Daren said: "Youlu don't have to be so curious. If you are a person of status, you will naturally introduce him later. You don't need to pay attention to ordinary wealthy households."

After all, he is a fifth-rank acquaintance, not everyone who comes to give gifts can be interviewed by him personally, more often they are interviewed by Steward Li, Li Zhuang, and Master Yue. Only the real rich people in He'an Mansion will be brought to meet him. .

It was a pity for Gu Youlu to hear that, seeing that these guests were either rich or noble, Mr. Li actually wanted to pick them up, but he was not stupid. He knew that he could be curious, but he couldn't ask Mr. Li to call these people over and introduce them to him. .

However, Lord Li loved him very much, and asked, "Youlu wants to talk to those people?"

Gu Youlu nodded, naturally thinking about it, all of them are very rich.He used to be acquainted with these people by the grandson of Master Li's savior, and they must not curry favor with him.

However, he spoke nicely and said with a smile, "We are new here, so I thought it would be good to know more people."

Gu Chengzhi didn't want to follow Lord Li, although he had money to follow this old man, he had to pretend.There are so many delicious foods in the living room, he wants to have fun eating instead of following the old man's rules, so he said: "Grandpa Li, brother Zhi also wants to meet those people."

Master Li smiled and said: "Since that's the case, then you father and son will go with Li Bai to meet those merchants."

Gu Youlu was very happy, and hurriedly thanked Mr. Li: "Thank you, Uncle Li."

Master Li smiled and nodded, and asked a servant beside him to take Gu Youlu and his son to meet those merchants, while he took Gu Youwen and his son and Young Master Li Er to the room on the left side of the living room, where he met the He'an mansion. Noble families, big merchants, Juren, and people whose official positions are lower than him.

Young Master Li Er was very dissatisfied with Mr. Li taking Gu Youwen and his son to meet these distinguished guests, and said in an innocuous way: "Father, the visiting guests are here to see our Li family, not to meet other foreign surnames. Human."

Gu Youwen and his son's face darkened when they heard this, but they were smart enough not to argue with Young Master Li Er, because Master Li would help them.

Sure enough, Master Li was very upset when he heard this, and he scolded Young Master Li Er in a low voice: "Youwen and Chengxian are the saviors of our Li family. Although they are not surnamed Li, they are the closest people to our Li family. Let them go to meet some respectable people in the city, why not?"

"It's you." Master Li looked at Young Master Li Er, and really hated iron and steel: "A 30-year-old man has not even passed the exam, and he doesn't even have a son. No offspring is great, and there are no boys." , how can the father reuse you?"

Ever since the death of Young Master Li, Young Master Li San, and Young Master Sun of Li's patriarch, Lord Li was very afraid that the Li family would have no descendants, and he desperately wanted a male. Although... he still wanted Young Master Li to give birth to a son, After all, Young Master Li Er is the son of the legitimate son, and the one born is the grandson of the legitimate son.

He is an official and knows the importance of being born in the first place.

Not being able to give birth to a son is the pain of Young Master Li Er, Master Li brought it out in front of Gu Youwen and his son, his expression was quite ugly, and he almost walked away.But the Li family will stay in He'an Mansion for at least three years, he can't give up this opportunity to get acquainted with the famous families and various officials in the prefecture, so he can only swallow his anger and continue to stay.

Seeing this, Master Li snorted coldly and said, "When you have no skills, you have to be obedient."

After hearing this, Master Li Er hated him even more.

Gu Youwen and Gu Chengxian listened to each other, feeling extremely refreshed. Master Li really treated their father and son very well, and even scolded his own son for their father and son.

"My lord, the uncle of the Liu family, a prominent family in Fucheng, wants to see you, but do you want to see him?" Li Zhuang asked, and briefly explained the situation of the Liu family.

The Liu family is a century-old family in He'an Prefecture. The ancestors used to be officials. Now there are three Juren in the family, and there are countless fertile land in the family.

Master Li nodded after hearing this: "Since the uncle of the Liu family came to pay New Year's greetings in person, it is natural to see him."

Li Zhuang nodded, and picked out some distinguished guests, and brought them to Mr. Li. Among them were many merchants, and Boss An was also there.

Boss An didn't like Mr. Li in his heart. The old man didn't take office early or late, and he came here after the Chinese New Year. Isn't this going to torment their merchants to death?

But there is no way, they have to curry favor with the adults in Fucheng Yamen when they do business, and even those who celebrate the New Year have to bring generous gifts to pretend to be grandchildren.

Mr. Qi also came, although his elder brother is a Beijing official, but his family lives in He'an Mansion, the new colleague of He'an Mansion came to take up the post, so he had to come.

The three officials of Fucheng yamen: Zhifu, Tongzhi, and Tongjuan, it can be seen that Master Tongzhi's status in Fucheng, even Mr. Qi is coming to see him.

Mr. Li was very polite to Mr. Qi, let him sit in the first seat on the right, and the first seat on the left was reserved for guests with higher status.

Mr. Qi thanked him and took his seat.When he learned that the father and son next to Li Tongzhi were not Li Tongzhi's eldest son, but Gu, he was slightly surprised. There are so many people with the surname Gu, and you can meet them everywhere.

However, he didn't mention Gu Jinli's family, because he was wary of this new acquaintance, for fear that this acquaintance Li was shallow-sighted, and after knowing that the seasoning and spice business belonged to the Gu family, he would reach out to snatch the goods from him.

Boss An didn't mention the Gu family, let alone bring ham.

It's a joke, that ham is not only expensive, but also hard to find. How can he foolishly carry a ham to honor Li Tongzhi?

Impossible, he didn't even bring a plate of ham slices, but he brought beautiful jade, famous paintings, ancient books, and a few beauties who were specially taught by his mother, and gave them to Li Tongzhi.

Although Boss An and Mr. Qi didn't mention the Gu family, Gu Youlu still heard news about the Gu family in the living room.

"Brother Yu, what are you talking about, the crystal cakes, roast duck, tofu, and braised meat we eat now are all made by Gu's?" Gu Youlu asked while biting the roasted duck leg, and was very interested in this Gu's who had the same surname as his own.

The young master of the Yu family in Fucheng said: "That's natural, not only these things are made by Gu's, but even the spices and toothbrushes are made by Gu's."

Gu Youlu stood up immediately when he heard it, and said in surprise: "What are you talking about? Even the spices and toothbrushes are made by this Gu family? Hey, that's terrible. I heard that the spices are the same as fresh sauce. Expensive, how much money did the Gu family earn?"

Young Master Yu's friend, Young Master Fu from Fucheng Fujia Inn said: "The Qi family in Fucheng got the spices from Mrs. Gu, but after three years, the money they earned has gone to sea."

He lowered his voice again and said: "I heard that Uncle Qi's promotion is because he sent spices to Shangfeng."
