Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 591 Planning to sell myself

At three quarters past noon, a family of four stopped in front of the graves of Gu Mingbo and his wife.

Yesterday at this time, Gu Xianxian's family was executed.

"Father, mother."

Gu Qingxi knelt in front of the tombstone neatly and touched the stone tablet with his hand: "Your revenge has finally been avenged."

Gu Qingjue took Su Yixin's hand and exerted slight force.

Su Yixin understood Gu Qingjue's mood at the moment.

From the moment his parents died, a seed of hatred was planted in his heart.

He had endured it for so many years in order to make the Gu family pay the price. Just yesterday, the Gu family finally paid the price for what they had done.

"Dad, Mom, Yixin and I are getting married."

Su Yixin smiled and said: "Dad, he doesn't know what I look like yet, but it doesn't matter. Mom will definitely tell him."

In fact, the four of them knew better than anyone else that saying this was just a kind of comfort.

To put it bluntly, this method is not to comfort the dead, but to provide psychological comfort to the living.

It’s the season when peaches are ripe again,

Not long after lunch at the old house, Muramasa came with a cane.

I don’t know where I got the news that they were at home.

In a blink of an eye, five or six years passed.

Muramasa is a little older, but it's just that he has more gray hair.My ears are slightly back, so I have to speak louder.

"Grandpa Muramasa, please sit down quickly."

"If Xiaogen hadn't seen you coming back, I wouldn't have known about it. After you went to Kyoto, it was a rare time for you to come back. I didn't come over right away."

Su Yixin glanced at Gu Qingjue, and then asked: "Grandpa Muramasa, what do you want to tell us?"

"that……"

Muramasa probably didn't expect Su Yixin to be so happy, so he asked directly, not ready for what to say.

"If you have anything to do, just say it directly. It doesn't matter."

"The eldest son of the Gu family, the eldest son's daughter-in-law, if I have anything to say, I will tell you directly. Our village has made a lot of money raising silkworms in the past few years. Everyone has a lot of money, and most of the children in the family have been sent to private schools. I just want to learn from them. As promising as the older man, there are not many children here who are planning to go to the state capital to prepare for the provincial examination in a few months."

At this point, Su Yixin still hadn't heard what Muramasa meant.

Gu Qingjue, on the other hand, seemed to understand and asked Muramasa: "Do you want me to tell them about the provincial examination?"

"Yes, I just want you to guide them. You are the number one scholar with three yuan and three grades. We can count all three yuan and three in the entire Song Dynasty. I just want to tell them what they need to pay attention to when taking the exam. , for them, it’s a huge benefit.”

Gu Qingjue smiled and nodded: "This is not a big deal. You will have them all come to my house later."

When Muramasa heard this, he stood up very excitedly and was about to walk out: "Then I'll call them over quickly. I know you are busy, so I can't delay."

After Cunzheng left, Su Yixin told Fang's mother and the others to make some snacks and prepare more tea.

About half an hour later, Muramasa came to the door again, bringing four or five children with him.

Let's call them children. The youngest is sixteen or seventeen years old, and the oldest is three or four years older than Gu Qingjue.

Liu Yuntao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, followed at the back.

"Auntie, it's really been a long time no see."

"Yes, you have grown so tall in the past few years."

Liu Yuntao looked up and down at Su Yixin: "Auntie can hardly recognize her now. Who are Sister Ming and Brother Xi? Children really look the same every year. At first they were only as tall as my legs, but now they are almost as tall as auntie. He's taller." "No, he's grown up."

Su Yixin waved to Gu Qingming and Gu Qingxi: "Come over and say hello to Aunt Liu."

When I first wore it.

This family really didn't have enough to eat. If Aunt Liu hadn't helped from time to time, the two little ones would have been hungry for many times.

Sister Ming was precocious and could already remember things at that time, not to mention Brother Xi, who was already six or seven years old at that time.

Looking back now, I am very grateful to Aunt Liu for her help.

"Aunt Liu, sit down quickly and come drink tea."

Sister Ming pulled Aunt Liu to sit down at the table nearby. The children who had just arrived were taken to the study by Gu Qingjue.

Aunt Liu agreed with a smile, leaning against the kitchen hall so that she could see what was going on in the study.

Su Yixin looked at Aunt Liu, then at the backs of the children, and asked: "Auntie, is that tall and thin man your eldest son?"

"Yes, and the one on the side is mine too."

Su Yixin nodded understandingly.

No wonder Liu Yuntao came here. Two of these five children were from her family, so she had to come over to see what was going on.

This lecture lasts for two hours.

The sun was setting, and its faint afterglow shone in the yard. When Gu Qingjue came out, it happened to shine on his face.

Su Yixin looked over and felt that Gu Qingjue's whole body was glowing.

If one day Gu Qingjue stops being an official, it would be nice to come back here and become a teacher.

"Aunt Liu."

"Brother Jue, thank you very much for talking to them for so long today."

Gu Qingjue smiled: "These are all very smart children. They don't talk much. We just discuss them together."

Aunt Liu's eldest son is called Wang Tong, and her younger son is called Wang Nian.

Wang Tong is 23 years old. Aunt Liu arranged a marriage for him the year before last and gave birth to a daughter at the beginning of this year, named Wang Fangqin.

Wang Tong felt a little embarrassed when he heard Gu Qingjue's praise: "It's because we are pestering him, or we are too stupid. We still don't understand some things after being told them once, and we forget the time while talking."

Wang Nian is 17 years old this year and has reached the age to propose marriage.

Because he was going to take the exam in his hometown, Liu Yuntao simply waited until he passed the exam in his hometown before letting him meet her.

Anyway, he is the second child, so there is no need to be so anxious.

After they left, it didn't take long for Fang's mother to prepare dinner.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon is particularly round at night. Sitting in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky, eating reunion dinner, I feel extremely happy.

Sister Ming bit the chicken drumstick in her mouth: "Brother, my sister-in-law's life is really happy now. When I was young, every time I was hungry, I would think that if one day I could eat chicken drumsticks every day, it would be Dingding’s happy days. Now I don’t think so. I’ll get tired of chicken drumsticks if I eat too much. Happiness is only when the family is together.”

Brother Xi just listened and smiled without speaking.

Sister Ming was not going to let it go.

"Second brother, my family was poor at that time and we didn't have enough to eat. Have you ever thought about what you will do when you grow up?"

Su Yixin and Gu Qingjue both looked at Gu Qingxi.

Gu Qingxi held his right hand with his left hand and hesitated for a long time before speaking out: "At that time, I thought that if I didn't have enough to eat, I would go to the town to find a wealthy family and sell myself. At that age, I would work as an escort for a wealthy family. Just right."
