Chapter 40
I remember the first time, when we just met, he asked her to go back, the words meant to refuse, but the action of opening the door already expressed endless sincerity.
Gu Qingzhao didn't go down the narrow steps, but stood on the steps, staring at her with his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Miss An, it's snowing today, so I can't sit on the stone pier over there."
An Ning nodded, she knew.
He continued: "So, if Miss An doesn't mind, come to the house to have a rest."
The corners of An Ning's lips became more and more obvious, and there was a smile in his eyes, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."
Gu Qingzhao locked the door at the door, obviously waiting for her to go in first.
An Ning lifted the hem of her skirt and stepped up the steps. After entering the room, she could store everything at a glance.In the narrow thatched hut, there is a bed that is only big enough for one person on one side of the wall. The quilts are washed white, but they are very clean, and they are neatly folded together.On the other side, all the pots and pans are hung on the wall, meticulously. Below is a stove with some dry wood on the side.Everything is old, but spotless.
On the other side opposite the bed, there are two small wooden stools, and some fragments of charcoal fire are burning beside the wooden stools, which look like they are newly lit.
An Ning looked at the pile of charcoal fire, and said to Gu Qingzhao: "Mr. Gu, you guessed that I'm coming again?" Because she saw that the charcoal basin was also new, and he didn't usually have the habit of burning charcoal basins. With the new charcoal basin, An Ning felt a little warmer in his heart, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."
Gu Qingzhao looked as usual, as if preparing a charcoal basin for her was just an ordinary thing, he said in a gentle voice, "Did you catch a cold?"
An Ning paused, then shook her head slightly, "It's not a cold, what about Mr. Gu?" He also fell into the water that day.
Gu Qingzhao said: "No. Miss An, sit down."
An Ning nodded, and walked towards the two small wooden benches, huh?An Ning knelt down and touched the wooden stool. Is this new?
"Cough." Gu Qingzhao coughed unnaturally, "I knew Miss An that you would come, the weather is getting colder, it's not suitable to talk outside."
Gu Qingzhao's caring appearance, if his students saw him, his eyes would widen. After all, in winter, when his students came to visit him, they would stand outside the house and talk. How could he invite people into the house.Of those who have been in Gu Qingzhao's cabin so far, An Ning is the No.1 one.
But An Ning didn't think much about it, he just thought Mr. Gu was a heart-warming person.
After the two sat down, An Ning looked at the person opposite and thought deeply, "Mr. Gu... what are your plans for the future?"
She made it clear what she wanted to do in the future.
Gu Qingzhao got up, "I haven't thought it through yet." He walked towards the stove and boiled a pot of tea or water on the stove. He took the teapot in his hand and poured a cup into the teacup next to him. Hot water, and under An Ning's gaze, he reached out and put the hot water in front of An Ning.
An Ning took it with her hands, it was water, and the teacup was not hot, it was just right.
"This water has been boiled. You can drink it and warm your hands." Gu Qingzhao sat down again.
An Ning thanked her again, she hadn't finished talking about the topic just now.
"Mr. Gu, what are you thinking about? Do you want to be an official again?"
Gu Qingzhao's eyes shifted to An Ning's glass of water, he sighed softly and said softly, "Yes, I'm considering whether to re-enter the imperial court as an official."
An Ning remained silent, waiting for him to continue.
"Gu Mou likes the countryside and mountain streams, and doesn't like the court's calculations. But Yu Chaotang is nothing more than a country, and Gu Mou's heart can never let Gu Mou stay out of it."
She knew that it was because of what he had seen and learned since he was a child, and because he was extremely sober, so he didn't want to watch the court sink and the country corrupt.
An Ning looked at his cold eyes cautiously and said, "Come back, Mr. Gu, the court needs you, and the people of Daye need you. During the years you were here, Daye flourished day by day, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a prosperous age. But after you left, the court gradually became corrupt. The Holy One is kind and trusts others. The Holy One needs you, and Mr. Gu’s students are waiting for Mr. Gu to go back. Mr. Gu... will get lost people bring back."
"A sober person can infect others. I think, I understand, because I am also...so. Some people once said that with great ability comes great responsibility. In fact, I think the real meaning of this sentence is that a person who has truly seen the world , there is truth in my heart, I have seen a piece of grass, a piece of sea, a flower, it should look like it should be, but this should look like it suddenly changed, everyone said they have always been like this, because in This has always been the case in their cognition. As for Mr. Gu, An Ning wants to say that a person like Mr. cannot deceive himself that those things that have changed are normal and have always been like this."
"So, conscious people have to work hard to make a change."
If it was in a prosperous age, Gu Qingzhao would stay in Dali Academy and train countless talents for Daye, which would be more beneficial to the society than being an official.But after he left, the two princes colluded with officials wantonly in the court because of the competition for the crown prince. Some of the students from Dali Academy were instigated and forgot their original intentions, and those officials who still kept their original intentions and did not collude with them, It was also gradually cleared away.
The court officials' embezzlement of official money, and the matter of framing lower officials was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Gu Qingzhao thought for a long time.
"Miss Ann."
An Ning was looking at the scenery outside the window at the moment, when a sound like a breeze came to her ears, she turned her head, "Huh?"
The corner of Gu Qingzhao's mouth smiled lightly, his brows and eyes were slightly curved, and there was a little warmth in his eyes, it was a smile from the heart.
An Ning was stunned for a moment, why in this winter, it felt like a spring breeze.
"Ah? Mr. Gu?" An Ning, who came back to her senses, smiled guiltily.
"Miss An, just like in Miss Ruan's paintings, she is independent from the world."
Sure enough, he recognized that the person in the painting was her.
"Now it seems that Gu and Ms. An are on the same road."
An Ning turned her head again, looked at the snow scene outside the window, and showed a particularly bright smile.
There is a word called bosom friend.How many times in life do you meet a confidant, and it is indeed a rare and precious person.
Before coming, she wanted to give Mr. Gu a few hidden guards to protect his safety, but now it seems that it is unnecessary.
"It's getting late, Mr. Gu, let me take my leave first." She drank the warm water on the book in one gulp, and Gu Qingzhao took the cup she drank at any time. If you look closely, you can find that the last time She used the same one.
Gu Qingzhao took out a dilapidated umbrella from the corner of the bed. The umbrella stem was slightly thick and there were some bumps on it. It looked like it was carved by himself, "Miss An, there is a lot of snow on the road. Gu will give you a ride."
I will soon be able to recover on the fourth day. I have been busy these days, and my anxiety disorder has also made me unable to sleep well.
