The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1322 Broken
Duke Zhen thought for a while, and still gave an order with concern.These pots of orchids are raised by the old lady, and they look like precious things on weekdays.If it breaks, the old wife must be furious.

"Yes!" Lian Xin bowed to Gu Chengyu before leaving, and then walked towards the inside of the screen.

After drinking for three rounds, even though Gu Chengyu had a good capacity for alcohol, he was also slightly drunk.Calculating the time, there is more than half an hour before the duty, he has to leave the table first.

After all, he had to go back to wash up and change his clothes. He couldn't go to Dali Temple with the smell of alcohol all over his body, right?

"Oh!" Gu Chengyu just turned around to say goodbye, but he didn't want a girl next to him to spill all the wine on Gu Chengyu.

He was wearing a pea blue collared gown with buttons today, and the wine was poured on his chest, staining the light color.

"What's going on? You're clumsy." Duke Zhen's face suddenly turned cold, and he angrily scolded the girl who had already knelt down in fright.

"Damn it, servant girl!" The little girl was still holding the tray, the wine jug poured on it hadn't been straightened out, and the wine dripped down the tray onto the carpet.

"What's the matter with you girl?" Yao Qinglan stared at the girl, this is the second time Gu Chengyu came to the door.Now he is a third-rank official, a real court official, not a low-level official like before.

"It's okay, I turned around and accidentally bumped into it, so don't blame it!" Gu Chengyu wiped his chest with a handkerchief, he felt that the wine had soaked his shirt and stuck it to his skin, making him a little uncomfortable .

"The clothes are very wet, if you don't change them immediately, I'm afraid you'll catch a cold!" Lord Zhen Guo waved to the boy beside him with a livid face.

"Send Mr. Gu to change clothes!" Yao Qinglan also reacted, and immediately said to the boy.

Yao Qingcheng on the side rolled his eyes, and his eyes flashed, "Master Gu! It's because the people in the house are not good at doing things. It's really rude. It's freezing cold, and it's easy to catch cold when you're so wet."

He suddenly turned around and shouted towards the table behind him: "Brother Min, go and send a set of your new clothes to Mr. Gu now. I see that you are about the same size. Your clothes should be worn by Mr. Gu." fit."

Yao Yimin was a little surprised, he glanced at Gu Chengyu, then at the wine glass in front of him, feeling a little reluctant.

"I'll send someone to get it right away!" Of course, this kind of work is done by the servants, so why should he do it himself?

It's too obvious that his father is flattering him, right?But what's the use of cursing?He is the son-in-law of the eldest family, and has nothing to do with their second family.When the family is divided into equal parts in the future, where can they get any light?

"Thank you for your kindness, but it's just a little wet, so it doesn't matter. The younger generation will go to the yamen to meet Mao in the afternoon, so I don't want to stay longer, so I will take my leave first."

As soon as Gu Chengyu heard about changing clothes, he quickly refused. This is an old routine. Who knows if there will be any accidents when changing clothes?
Anyway, Gu Chengyu came to the conclusion that both men and women should not change clothes when they are guests at other people's houses, otherwise it is easy to be messed up by others.

After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he stood up, but he wanted to leave, but someone didn't want to let him go.

"Hey~ Mr. Gu left like this, wouldn't it be a disrespect for our Duke's mansion? If you catch a cold and delay the business that the emperor gave you, that would be a crime on our mansion. It's just a change of clothes, It doesn’t take much effort.”

Yao Qingcheng stepped forward, blocked Gu Chengyu's way, and said to Gu Chengyu with a smile.

Gu Chengyu frowned slightly, and if he continued to babble, he would not be able to catch up with the duty time.

Lord Zhen's eyes were fixed slightly, he took a deep look at Yao Qingcheng, and then said: "Since you will be on duty in the next afternoon, you must go back and wash up. It's almost time now, so we won't stay any longer .Today, our mansion was abrupt, and I went to ask you to come here without posting a post in advance, which is really a bit hasty."

Yao Qingcheng glanced at his father, and seeing his father looking back at him with warning eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Yao Qingcheng's evasive gaze made Zhen Guogong's face darker than before, and he knew that the second child must have some crooked ideas.Thinking of the fourth girl who hadn't married yet, Duke Zhen couldn't help but sighed, it was really mud that couldn't support the wall.

"The old man is too polite, and it's the younger generation's fault. I really don't know that today is the second master's birthday, otherwise I should have prepared a gift earlier to pay my respects!"

Now that Duke Zhen has already spoken, the others are too embarrassed to keep him.

Gu Chengyu bowed to Lord Zhen Guo, bid farewell to everyone, and left the flower hall.

Don't think that he didn't see the father and son's eyebrow and eye lawsuit just now. Yao Qingcheng must have some intentions, otherwise he wouldn't be so eager.

After all, Yao Qinglan is the son of the world, the future master of the Duke of Zhenguo, not to mention that the other party is the father of his fiancée.Yao Qinglan is not in a hurry, why is he so excited to be an uncle?
No matter what the other party's purpose is, it's okay if Gu Chengyu doesn't accept the call.He followed the entourage in front of him out of the courtyard, and was about to go to the outer courtyard, but he didn't know how far he had gone when he heard a commotion.

"Third sister, this orchid was broken, and grandma will definitely punish us. Qingdai was too careless, and she even dropped two pots. Yu Linglong and Luyun are grandma's favorite two pots of orchids. They are usually like this. Baby, it’s hard for people to look at it. This time it was broken, so grandma couldn’t be more distressed?"

The girl's voice was clear and clear, like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, and it was particularly loud and clear amidst the chirping.

When Gu Chengyu heard her called the third sister, he knew that this was the fourth girl in the family.It's just that women in this family don't all practice soft-spoken words?It's really rare for someone to shout so loudly, as if they were afraid that they would not be heard.

"Yeah! If it fell, it will fall! She even stepped on it and crushed the flowers. Originally, it was impossible to change the pot and wait carefully for it to survive, but now it's fine, the petals are crushed. Definitely not alive."

"Are those orchids very expensive? Why are you all so scared?" Jiang Shao, the youngest of the girls in the Jiang family, asked innocently, looking up at her cute little face.

"Of course, this is a precious variety. You may not be able to find the same one all over the capital. This time, grandma must be very angry. Oh! Third sister, look, what should I do?"

"Girl, this servant didn't mean it. I didn't know who pushed the servant at that time, and the flowerpot fell off. When the servant stood still, I realized that I stepped on the orchid. Girl, you have to be careful. Ah! The servant girl knows that it is the old lady's wish, so how dare she take it lightly?"

Qing Dai had tears in her eyes, she was really terrified.The matter has been reported to the old lady, if the old lady finds out that she dropped the orchid, she must be punished severely.In the worst case, he was sold out of the house, and in the worst case, he was beaten to death with random sticks.
