Chapter 757 It’s OK That It’s Not!

Gu Dahua was a little surprised when he heard this. They didn't go with Mr. Zhao's caravan to bring things back, but went to Ruyifang in the capital. But it didn't seem strange.

Compared with the housekeepers and stewards under Master Zhao Sanye, not to mention the master, the second master also trusts the shopkeepers and stewards under Madam Qian more, as they are all tight-lipped.

The Zhao family, after all, didn’t last long.

Mr. Zhao Sanye is considered a big shot, and that steward is a bit noisy. After a few sips of yellow soup, he dares to say anything.

He even dared to say things like the eldest lady of the Zhao family looked down on his master, while the other side was eyeing his master's business.

Only he and Dachang were not talkative people. If they revealed any hint in front of the manager sent by Madam Qian to transport the goods, the manager of the Zhao family would be beaten to death by Mr. Zhao Sanye!
But it can also be seen from this that although Madam Zhao and Madam Qian are cousins, the two really cannot be compared. Even their eldest sons cannot be compared.

Thinking of Madam Qian's eldest son, Gu Dahua immediately remembered something, "Master, did Madam tell you that even the eldest young lady of the Qian family sent someone to deliver a letter to Madam?"

"Have."

Not only did she pass the invitation to his wife, Mrs. Qian, the eldest daughter-in-law, was so courteous that she even took Xiao Bai into consideration. She is worthy of being Mrs. Qian's only legitimate daughter-in-law!
This son is well taught and his daughter-in-law is not bad either.

Lord Qian and Madam Qian are not in the capital, but the couple are able to live a good life and even Master Qi San praises them for it. Madam Qian can be considered very blessed.

Enter from the side door of Zhou Mansion facing the street, turn left for a few dozen steps, go around the rockery and stone lake, and there is a moon gate in front. Gu Erzhu then sees several people coming from the other side.

At the same time, he had no time to tell Gu Dahua anything except nodding. He saw Zhou Sishun walking quickly towards him and saying it was him, waving his hand for others to leave.

Of course, these other people did not include Zhou Yujiang who came with them. Seeing this, Zhou Yujiang hurriedly greeted and saluted before the two relatives got together to walk.

late?

A little later, his father and Uncle Gu would start chatting very quickly, and most of the time he didn't know whether he should greet or interrupt.

"Good boy!" Knowing that the capital was different from his hometown and that outsiders paid more attention to the etiquette of scholars, Gu Erzhu was too lazy to ask Dajiang to not perform the formalities as he did in the past.

After praising him, he came close and patted Dajiang on the shoulder, "I have your father here. It's cold outside. Go back to the house and don't disturb my old brother and I talking late at night."

Dajiang couldn't help but nod his head.

"Go ahead, what are you waiting for? Go back to your room and have a good rest. There is no rush to review your lessons right now. Take it easy these few days. There will be plenty of time to review your lessons and practice calligraphy.

Be obedient. Your father and I have a lot to talk about. We have to think carefully tonight about whether we can go back and snatch your wife back from your uncle Qi.

Speaking of which, men and women should get married when they are old enough, and those who are fifteen or sixteen years old are the right age to get married. It would be better if you get married earlier so that your father can have a grandchild sooner, don’t you think?”

The river suddenly came rushing in.

Thursday Shun laughed.

"I haven't even finished talking, what are you laughing at?" Gu Erzhu said with a smile and slapped Zhou Sishun on the back, "Why did you come here to catch me, aren't you cold?
Why don't we just send someone to tell the gatekeeper here? Where's Changping? He wouldn't be reading a book right now. I asked him to go out with me but he won't leave."

"It's okay, he just likes books. I just came over from his end and asked him to rest early, but my wife and his wife went to look for my second sister-in-law."

The implication was that Li and Xiao Bai were still at Liu's place. Gu Erzhu understood, and without thinking about returning to the courtyard where he and his wife lived in Zhou's mansion, he turned and walked shoulder to shoulder with Zhou Sishun to Qingfeng Courtyard.

"What's going on? Didn't he come back from the Zhao family? Why didn't he accompany my second sister-in-law in but went out first? Could it be that Boss Zhao is helping one of his sons to get our Baoya?"

"He dares?!"

It’s okay if it’s not!

After Gu Erzhu blurted out this, he glanced around and shook his head in amusement, "As for our Xiaohe, Uncle Zhao seems to want to marry his granddaughter to Xiaohe.

But when I heard him asking how old Xiaohe was, and talking about the daughters of the fourth brother Zhao, and how old the youngest daughter of the eldest brother Zhao was now, I deliberately changed the subject.

I don't know if I'm overthinking it or if he really means it. Anyway, our Xiaohe is still young, why should he be in such a hurry to settle down? Don't you think this makes sense?"

Zhou Sishun frowned and nodded when he heard that. "It's not that they miss you too much. Second brother, they saw that we are in-laws with Brother Qi, and even Lord Zhao is tempted."

Could Gu Erzhu say that he had heard his eldest son mention before that the Zhao family knew they couldn't keep Dajiang, and that Xiaohe's marriage must have been targeted by the Zhao family again?
"It's human nature. You don't even look at who's standing behind you. Your family is different, brother!"

Zhou Sishun subconsciously retorted, "What's the difference? I'm still a peasant, and my family is not a farmer. How can I be superior to anyone else?"

Hey, you still have the nerve to say that!

Let alone the house that your family just bought!

It is located in an area where the powerful and wealthy gather, close to the East City of the Imperial District, and is only two alleys away from Lord Zhou's original residence. I wonder what kind of area it is?
Although it is located at the outermost part of the East City of the Imperial City District, it is still extremely difficult to buy. After all, land in the inner city is very expensive, and the surrounding areas are the residences of officials above the fifth rank, so naturally there are very few houses for sale.

It is basically impossible for ordinary people to buy houses nearby. Even big businessmen with a lot of cash will not sell houses to them.

It’s not easy to live in the capital.

Those who can settle down here are all divided into different social classes, and people who are not from the same social class cannot live together.

Have you forgotten that this house was originally the residence of an old Hanlin, but the old Hanlin has long passed away, and his children and grandchildren have long since separated and lived separately, and most of them have moved out of the capital. Therefore, it has been vacant for several years and has not been sold until now, when it was transferred to your name, Master Zhou Er, through the Zhou Mansion?
"What are you looking at?"

Just looking without saying anything makes people feel uneasy. Zhou Sishun stretched out his right hand and touched the back of his head, "We are brothers, so if we have something to say, just say it."

Gu Erzhu pulled down his right hand with a helpless look, leaned forward and stretched his head to whisper in Zhou Sishun's ear, "Didn't you see that Master Gao personally sent his long-servant to ask you to come to his mansion and have a visit after he's done with his work these two days?"

"this one?"

"Who else do you want me to talk about?" After saying that, Gu Erzhu patted Zhou Sishun's back of the head in a mischievous manner.

Zhou Sishun was speechless, as if Mr. Gao had only invited me, "Is he trying to pay us a visit by sending us an invitation, seeing that we are so particular?

Another thing is, when proposing marriage, they not only invited official matchmakers to the Qi Mansion, but also invited a respected old lady to go with them. She is his biological mother, okay?"

What you mean is that you gave face to Lord Gao, so you invited Old Madam Gao to go to the Qi Mansion to propose marriage, and Lord Gao had to be polite and send his long-time attendant?
