Chapter 543 Are you the child of Gu Changqing's family?

Chapter 543 Are you the child of Gu Changqing's family?

Gu Chengyu sent Ye Zhiqiu back to Ye's house before returning to Gu's residence.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he heard Ming Yan's surprised voice, "My lord! Look, is that someone who often hangs around in front of the mansion?"

As soon as Ming Yan drove the carriage to the gate of Gu's residence, he saw a man standing at the gate, looking towards Gu's residence.That gaze looking up, down, left, and right is strange no matter how you look at it.

When Gu Chengyu heard this, he opened the curtain and looked out.

Sure enough, there was a man in his fifties standing in front of the mansion.This person was wearing a cropped indigo short brown collar, the material was old and slightly faded, but there were no patches.

Gu Chengyu just took a look at the man's clothes, and then set his eyes on the man's face.Looking at it, he felt that the man looked very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

But Gu Chengyu has a good memory, if he has seen it before, he should be able to remember who it is.Suddenly, he thought of a person.

This is not seen before, it should be very similar to that person.Putting down the curtain of the carriage, Gu Chengyu thought about it in his heart.

This man was standing in front of Gu's father's door, looking at this wealthy family, could it be that this is really the family he was talking about?But this family has a carriage to go in and out, and he can't be sure if he can't see the face of the owner.

Besides, there are rich families around here, even if he wanted to ask someone, he couldn't.The maid from the family next door often came out to buy things, but it was a lowly thing. When she saw how poor he was, she didn't even bother to pay attention to him, she just rolled her eyes at him, and went straight away.

Therefore, he has been lingering in front of this house for a few days, not daring to ask, for fear of making a mistake.But he made up his mind today, and he must go forward and ask.

He saw this carriage going in and out these two days, it should be the owner of the mansion.The concierge opened the west corner door, and Ming Yan was about to enter in the carriage.He winked at the porter and raised his chin at the man.

The porter looked over there, and the man came again.He immediately understood and hurried forward to stop this person.

Who would have thought that this man didn't seem to intend to leave today, but stayed where he was.Seeing that the porter was about to come, he hurried forward three steps at a time, and finally shouted: "May I ask if the master is from Shanhe Town, Jingyuan Prefecture?"

Gu Chengyu, who was sitting in the carriage, knew that this man must be that man when he heard it.It seems that this is the capital, but why not Shangling Village, but the capital?

The Gu family's roots and ancestral land are in Shangling Village, and there are only him and Gu Wanqian in the capital. This person's purpose is somewhat impure, and how did he find him?
Anyway, since the other party asked, Gu Chengyu couldn't ignore it.If it is not handled carefully and those censors take advantage of the loopholes, it will be a big trouble.

Ming Yan stopped the carriage and looked back.The adult of his family is naturally from Shanhe Town, Jingyuan Prefecture, so I don't know who this person is, could it be a neighbor?Ming Yan thought about it carefully, and found that he had never seen this person.

Not to mention the members of the Gu family, Mingyan has seen everyone, and he is sure that there is no such person in the Gu family.

"My lord! Do you think?" Ming Yan was a little uncertain, and he asked Gu Chengyu in the carriage.

"Order the steward to take the person to the hall of the outer courtyard, and I'll go there later." Gu Chengyu closed his eyes and thought about the person's purpose in his heart, hoping that it would not be a big trouble.

Mingyan is a little strange, does your lord know this person?He gave instructions to the porter, and drove the carriage into the corner gate.

"Hey? Wait!" The man wanted to stop the carriage. If he let the carriage go in, wouldn't it be a waste of his trip?
"My lord, don't panic, my lord invites you to come to the house to have a talk." The concierge didn't look down on this man because of his simple clothes, this is the guest his lord ordered to see.

Besides, the housekeeper has repeatedly instructed that no matter who comes to the door, etiquette is essential.If a dog sees people as inferior, once discovered, they will be severely punished.

The man was undecided, is this letting him in?Did the people in the carriage recognize him?There is also a concierge named Sir, it's not like he hasn't heard any news these days, the adults may be from the Gu family, but who is the official of the Gu family?He couldn't help but feel stagnant, he hasn't gone back for many years, the Gu family is well developed.

The concierge asked him to rest at the corner gate, and he went to call the steward of the outer courtyard.

Gu Chengyu returned to his yard and put down his official uniform.Since Ji Fuqu was sent away, he moved back to his yard.After all, the house in the front yard is smaller than the one in the inner yard, making it uncomfortable to live in.

The inner courtyard is a separate small courtyard, and there is a study next to the bedroom, which saves him the inconvenience of going to the outer study every morning to practice calligraphy.

Li Chun hurriedly stepped forward to take Gu Chengyu's official uniform and hung it up, and handed Gu Chengyu a pea green round-neck gown trimmed with white embroidered bamboo leaves. After a pause, he turned around and handed over the purse and other things.

Gu Chengyu couldn't help sighing, women are more careful.It's not that Mingmo and the others didn't take good care of her, on the contrary, Mingmo and the others were also very attentive.But men are not more careful than women after all.

Lichun took care of the house very well, and he also had a good eye for the matching of clothing and accessories. He was careful and fast in doing things, and Gu Chengyu was satisfied with these points.

Gu Chengyu brought Ming Mo to the outer courtyard, and Chen Guanshi immediately greeted him, "My lord! You are already waiting in the hall."

Gu Chengyu nodded and walked towards the hall.As soon as he entered the door, he found that the man was sitting upright, not daring to move at all, while looking at the ground blankly.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man looked up and saw that he was a noble boy, and hurriedly stood up from the armchair.

Gu Chengyu didn't say a word, and sat down directly on the head.Putting his eyes on the man, he sized him up a few times, and the sharp eyes made the man at a loss.

"Are you the child of Gu Changqing's family?" The man hesitated, but he still spoke.

"I don't know who you are? What's your relationship with the Gu family?" Gu Chengyu didn't answer him directly, but asked about the man's background.

Seeing Gu Chengyu's indifferent attitude, the man felt a drum in his heart. He bit the bullet and said, "Gu Changqing is my younger brother, and my name is Gu Changbai."

As soon as these words came out, Ming Mo was startled.The second uncle of the Gu family who had never met unexpectedly appeared, and even found the capital?How strange this matter looks.If you want to find your relatives, shouldn't you go back to your hometown first?After all, there are the most members of the Gu family there. Could it be that they happen to be in the capital?

"You say you are Gu Changbai, what proof do you have?"

Of course Gu Chengyu saw that it was Gu Changbai who came, but Gu Changbai came so strangely that he didn't dare to rashly go up to identify relatives.He and his second uncle have never met, only heard a few words from his father.After so many years, who knows what kind of character Gu Changbai is now?
