delicious little cook

Chapter 687

Gu Yun finally finished reading what he had to review tonight, and when he put the book back on the low table beside him, Bai Kou woke up, rubbed his eyes, yawned and was about to sit up straight, Gu Yun clasped her with one hand, and Pulling her back into his arms, he tilted his head and kissed her on the cheek.

Bai Kou was dazed just after waking up, and pushed Shizi away expressionlessly, crawled to her desk and tidied up the paper files on the floor, and put them into the low cabinet by category. Gu Yun put the blanket on his lap, Resting her chin on her hands, she watched Bai Kou busy back and forth, until she took her pen and paper and put on her shoes and left, without looking back at him from the beginning to the end.

Gu Yun was not angry at all with a smile on his face. After packing up his things, he also turned off the lights and went back to his bedroom, where he washed and slept under the service of the maids.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Yun and Gong Changji arrived at Fuxue shortly after they were found by Shi Tianmin, who told them to whisper in a corner, telling them that Lin Qing had a lot of fun, but Fuxue is not the time to talk about such things , So I made an appointment for lunch together, and I will talk about it in detail at that time.

Curious about the new gossip, Gu Yun and Gong Changji survived the morning class, rushed to the gate after class, met Shi Tianmin, and went to the small restaurant they usually go to together.

When we arrived at the place, we sat at the customary corner table. This noon meal time was full of guests, and the waiter's legs and feet quickly served each table. The three of them ate quietly first, and all the dishes were served after their stomachs were full. Finally, we chatted while drinking soup to eliminate food.

"Tell me, what's the fun?"

"After waiting for so long, finally something happened?"

Gu Yun and Gong Changji asked one by one.

"That Lin Qing has a self-important appearance, and he has few colleagues and friends. It took me a lot of brains to find an opportunity for him to have a banquet that he couldn't refuse." Shi Tianmin complained first.

"But you still managed it, amazing, amazing." Gu Yun complimented with a smile.

"He doesn't participate in the banquets between his colleagues, but he must go to the banquets hosted by his superiors and mentors, right? At the end of the new year, he doesn't seize all opportunities to socialize. When his appointment is over, why wait in so many lines? Pick him first among those who fill in the vacancy?" Shi Tianmin blinked triumphantly.

"So, there is a chance?"

"The day before yesterday, the old Hanlin, who taught them the good fortune, celebrated his birthday at home. He invited an opera troupe to sing, and his colleagues all brought their wives and daughters to the banquet. Do you think Lin Qing will bring his wife?"

"He really took his wife? He didn't even make up a lie about his wife being sick? He took it so happily?"

"Bring it, I brought a graceful and beautiful woman, she looks like a woman who is very suitable for him." Shi Tianmin laughed more and more maliciously, "And that woman is exquisite, and she is decent in front of a group of officials' wives and ladies. Coax those noble people not to know how much they like her."

Gu Yun and Gong Changji looked at each other and opened their mouths in surprise.

"Did he pretend to be his wife? So bold?!"

"Didn't you think of it? I didn't think of it either. I also specially asked my sister Shi Tianqi to pay attention to whether Lin Qing brought his wife to the banquet among the female relatives. When she came home and described the woman's appearance to me, I knew it was wrong. Lin Qing How can there be any grace in the ghostly appearance of my wife who lives at home every day."

"Then have you confirmed that the woman Lin Qing brought is his concubine?"

"Confirmed, I can tell you if you are not sure? Tian Qi told me that I was wrong, and immediately sent someone to the residence in the outer room to inquire. I didn't expect Lin Qing to spend the night there, and the woman was eloquent. The Jedi was still talking about going to the banquet, and he wanted Lin Qing to promise that he would ask her to go if there was such an opportunity in the future. They even had the idea of ​​getting rid of the main wife and marrying the second wife. If it wasn't for the time when my subordinate returned to the mansion It was a bit late, and I didn't catch up with me at home, otherwise I would have told you yesterday."

"Lin Qing really dare to agree?!" Gong Zhangji was stunned.

"He agreed, and the beauty is in his arms, so I can't help him not agreeing."

"Okay, now he's dead. The court officials pretended to be his wives outside the room and attended the birthday banquet together. He still wants to be a good man? Deprivation of fame and relegation to common people and imprisonment is what he deserves. What a hypocrite! People are disgusting, take care of him quickly, and save some of us from becoming colleagues with him in a few years."

Gu Yun patted the table lightly, his eyes swept over the faces of Gong Changji and Shi Tianmin, both of them nodded in unison.

"Now Lin Qing's colleagues think that his wife is young, beautiful, and full of fun. If he wants to expose his fake face, he must let his real wife stand up." Shi Tianmin said.

"Lin Qing's house is his own ancestral house, right? Then it means that the neighbors around are also family friends. They recognize who is Lin Qing's real wife. Lin Qing can't bribe all the residents in the whole workshop to identify him. The outer room is the main wife, right?" Gong Zhangji raised a possibility.

"Lin Qing's wife is just so pitiful. Her natal family is poor and she has no one to support her. A woman's family regards her husband as her god. No matter how bad her husband treats her, she will just accept it. I don't know if this woman finds out that her husband pretends to be his wife to participate in the event. What would she think about a colleague's birthday party?" Gu Yun shook his head and sighed.

"Why don't we just save this woman while we're in the trap of Lin Qing? Get her divorced?" Shi Tianmin followed Gu Yun's train of thought.

"What's the use of saving her? What if she leaves the child? Let's not talk about whether she can take the child away. Even if she does take the child, how will the mother and child survive? Take the daughter as a oil bottle It's easy for women to remarry, but it's really hard for those with sons." Gong Zhangji will become a father next year, and his mentality is different, so he will naturally pay more attention to women's and children's issues.

"Anyway, Lin Qing's family only has his son Jingui. If they can be separated, let their mother and daughter come out to live together. Before leaving, Lin Qing must pay her dowry. He can't be cheap for a penny." Gu Yun sneered.

Gong Changji and Shi Tianmin both laughed when they thought of the case that Duke Ye's government had once intervened in.

"Your family is an expert in such things as standing up for the poor female family members. Count and see how many times you have done it."

"Only twice, how could there be many, one time was Gu Hui, and the other time was Bai Kou's sister Bai Rui, and the matter came into our hands, we didn't take the initiative to find it." Gu Yun did not admit that he was an expert.

"Whatever you say, anyway, you are experienced now, and the next thing will be left to you, we believe in you." Gong Changji stretched out his arms and patted Gu Yun's shoulder vigorously. Shi Tianmin, who was drinking soup, I laughed so hard I couldn't even hold a spoon.

"Come on, it's none of my business. The woman has to be willing to get rid of her current life and bring her daughter out to live alone. If she doesn't have the will, that's what Bai Kou said, buns match dogs forever. I wish them husband and wife A hundred years together, happy and bald."

"Okay, well, let's go, let's go, what we're going to discuss now is how to let Lin Qing's real wife stand in broad daylight, and not let Lin Qing turn black and white, and let the outside room pretend to be a substitute. The method, whether the government will sentence their husband and wife to reconcile is not what we have to consider now." Shi Tianmin put down the soup bowl and spoon, and hurriedly smoothed things over.

"The main reason is that her natal family is scattered. They are the most powerful witnesses. In addition, even neighbors who have been with each other for generations will be bribed by money to give false testimony." Gu Yun scratched his head in annoyance.

"But it won't be so scattered that there are no relatives or friends left. Let's inquire first and look for it." Gong Changji's wonderful father's mentality prevailed, and he still wanted to help.

"Okay, let's look for evidence first, and we will clean up this Lin Qing when we have evidence. It's getting late now, and it's time to go back to class." Shi Tianmin saw that the diners around him had almost left, and there was no one at his table. After paying the bill, he stood up while taking out the money, and Xiao Er hurriedly came up to see the customer off.
