Chapter 148
The second old man stared at Gu Chongyang for a while, then at Wang Jiulang, and suddenly realized.

He can't treat Jiulang as a 22-year-old adult man, although he is mature and wise.But when it comes to the relationship between a man and a woman, it is the first time in love, and it is normal to fall in love with a little girl with cardamom years.

In the past, no matter how beautiful the girl was, he never pretended to speak out. Now that he has a sweetheart, he knows how to take care of her.

This Miss Gu is young, but she is pretty and tight, even if she is not inferior to Baozhen, she will be a little older in two years, and she will definitely be even more outstanding.Kuro really has a good eye.

In other words, it won't be long before he is going to hug his grandson.Before the eldest brother died, he entrusted the Wang family and Baozhen to him. It was because he was incompetent and failed to take good care of the Wang family, and made Jiulang develop such a cold temper towards women that he didn't even get close to his own mother.

Now with Miss Gu, Jiu Lang will marry a wife and have children like a normal person.

He blinked his eyes and held back his tears, brother, I'm finally going to fulfill your entrustment.

Gu Chongyang withdrew his hand, nodded to Wang Jiulang, and said, "Second Old Master, your illness is not diarrhea at dawn."

The second old man cleared his throat and said, "What kind of disease is that?"

Gu Chongyang did not answer, but asked him instead: "You also said just now that Wugeng diarrhea is caused by deficiency of kidney yang and insufficient life fire. The doctor must have prescribed medicine for warming the kidney and warming the spleen. You can feel the effect after taking it. how?"

"After taking the medicine for four days, I haven't seen the effect yet." The second old man also frowned: "It is reasonable to say that after taking the medicine for so many days, it should be effective."

He is a scholar of the Palace of Preserving Harmony. He was ordered by the late emperor to compile the "Great Qi Grand Ceremony", and he has already completed more than half of it and is very busy.He just took the medicine and didn't have time to think about other things. If Gu Chongyang hadn't asked, he wouldn't have known he had been taking the medicine for so long.

"It's not that you have kidney yang deficiency, it's that the liver wood is too strong, and the liver qi suppresses the spleen. You must know that the spleen governs the movement and transformation. If the spleen is deficient and the yang qi sinks, you will naturally have diarrhea." Gu Chongyang said: "Before you have diarrhea, you must be angry. Get angry and move your anger."

The second old man didn't speak, but nodded.

He wrote the manuscript in the middle of the night, and when the servant was serving tea, he overturned the candlestick on the table and burned several sheets of paper. He was furious and reprimanded the servant.

Speaking of which, he did start to have diarrhea at that time.

This Miss Gu is young, but she has some skills. This ability of dialectics should not be underestimated.

Seeing him nodding, Gu Chongyang smiled: "Since you trust me, then I'll give you a prescription."

The second old man naturally didn't have another word, and when he was about to write, Gu Chongyang paused again.In front of Wang Jiulang and the second old man, her handwriting was really ashamed.

She looked back at Wang Jiulang, her black and white almond eyes were clear and moving: "Jiulang, Fang Zi, let me tell you, write it."

The second old man couldn't help being speechless, this little girl is so courageous, will Jiulang scold her.In the past, in order to marry Jiulang, he arranged countless beautiful girls to come to his home, and none of them were dignified and polite.

He looked at Wang Jiulang worriedly.

Wang Jiulang's expression was indifferent, but he stepped out with two legs, and took the brush over: "You say so."

Gu Chongyang was very happy, with a loud voice, he spoke out the prescription, and then said: "Second old man, this is for nourishing the liver and strengthening the spleen, promoting yang and removing dampness, you will see results after taking it for two days, it is up to you whether you want to change the prescription later How is the recovery going?"

Wang Jiulang's performance shocked the second old man too much. The chief minister of the cabinet, who was calm in the court, could no longer calm down.

When Ruifeng took the prescription, he walked out with Ruifeng, and said solemnly: "Jiulang and Miss Gu, what's going on?"

His voice was a little tense, because there were too many turbulent waves in his heart, and he couldn't suppress it.

Ruifeng also felt black lines all over his head, and asked him how he knew.

"That's what you saw."

He said that Jiu Lang fell in love with Miss Gu, would Jiu Lang admit it?Absolutely not.

Wouldn't it be a lie to say that Jiulang doesn't like Miss Gu?But whoever has eyes, who can't tell that Jiulang has Miss Gu in his heart.

It's not true if you say it, it's not true if you don't say it, he still doesn't say it, let the second old man see for himself.

"I don't know what's going on." Ruifeng respectfully said: "You are very knowledgeable, give me some pointers, so that when I meet Miss Gu in the future, I will know how to deal with it. It's not that it's so serious now, it's light No, it’s really embarrassing.”

How could the second old man be fooled by him, he just stroked his beard and showed a meaningful smile on his face.

The days were unhurried, and a few days passed by again.

Mrs. Cui asked Gu Chongyang to go over and talk: "Ever since she came back from Zheng Guogong's mansion that day, Sister Hua has been ill. She has been resting in bed for the past few days. Go and help her take a look."

Gu Chongyang was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Cui saw the clue: "You and sister Hua are not happy?"

Gu Chongyang thought about it, and then said that Gu Chonghua wanted to worship Mrs. Baozhen with all his heart: "... Speaking of it, I was also wrong. I surpassed so many people and became Mr.'s disciple. There are those who are not convinced, and those who are sad Yes. But things have already happened. If I can do it again, I will still worship under the name of Mr. Mr. has a great reputation and talent. It is really my dream to have such an opportunity. I don’t blame my elder sister for being angry with me. She, after all, I owe her, and I'm afraid I can't bear to see what I've been chasing so hard for so many years being taken away effortlessly."

Emotionally, she understands Gu Chonghua, especially when she knows that her eldest sister was a monk in her previous life, and the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng lived her whole life, which is even more embarrassing.

"It's good for you to think like this. She didn't worship Mrs. Baozhen, it just shows that she didn't have such luck. If she gets into a corner because of this, then it's her fault." Mrs. Cui said: "Go and see Her, if she has figured it out, it would be best if she is willing to reconcile with you as before. If she is not willing, you don't have to go to her side in the future. As for what you owe her, don't say any more. If you owe her because of this, Ruizhu Academy There are so many female students here, don't you owe them all?"

Gu Chongyang went to the Lanting Courtyard.

In the past, as long as Gu Chonghua was at home and passed by the gate of the courtyard, he could always hear the sound of reading aloud or the melodious sound of playing the piano.

The day was silent.

In the past, she thought that her eldest sister really liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she read, practiced piano, painted and watched chess records, just like she likes medical skills very much. The process is very hard for each patient, but when she sees the patient gradually recovering and hears the patient's thanks, she feels that everything is worth it.

She couldn't imagine that if it wasn't because of too much love, just because she had admiration for a certain person and wanted to get close to that person, she would do things that she didn't want to do for several years.

If it was her, she would definitely not be able to do it.From this point of view alone, the eldest sister is really admirable, but also makes people feel that she is very pitiful.

Now that hope is shattered, she can't be Mrs. Baozhen's disciple, so she doesn't want to play the piano anymore, which is really embarrassing.

Gu Chongyang sighed and entered Gu Chonghua's room.

Gu Chonghua was lying on the bed, when he heard that Gu Chongyang was coming, his first reaction was to avoid him.

Ever since she met that god-like person at the age of 12, she made up her mind to walk by his side.So many years of hard work to learn all this is just to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, so that he can see her.

As long as she becomes Mrs. Baozhen's disciple, she can get close to Jiulang.But all of this was ruined by Gu Chongyang, how could she not hate it!If she misses this time, she may never have the chance to get close to the person she longs for.

She hated Gu Chongyang and wished she could strangle this person who took everything from her.

Gu Chonghua clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with unwillingness and resentment.

Gu Chongyang stood at the door, staring at the curtain and said: "Since Big Sister doesn't want to see me, then I won't go in. I just hope Big Sister can take care of her body and recover soon. Next summer will be the third year of Ruizhu Academy The one-time talent election is up, and I hope that the eldest sister can win the championship in one fell swoop and win glory for the Gu family."

She left after speaking.

She has a clear conscience, and she has no control over what the eldest sister thinks and does.

After entering October, the weather became cold day by day. In the middle of October, there was still light snow in the capital.

Mrs. Baozhen was afraid that Gu Chongyang would have a hard time getting up early every day, so she deliberately postponed the daily class by an hour. In this way, Gu Chongyang would stay at Wang's house for lunch after the class was over, and return home after taking a nap.

On this day, Gu Chongyang finished his schoolwork, had lunch with Mrs. Baozhen, and was about to go back to the courtyard where she temporarily lived for a lunch break. Just as he was leaving the door, he saw Wang Jiulang standing at the door
It was cold and snow was falling outside. Wang Jiulang was holding an umbrella. The snow around him fell to the ground, and the umbrella was covered with a thick layer. There were no footprints behind him.

He must have stood here for a long time.

When Gu Chongyang went back, he saw Mrs. Baozhen by the door, looking like she wanted to talk to Wang Jiulang but was afraid that he would be unhappy.

Gu Chongyang's cloaked hand slowed down, thinking that maybe she should ask Wang Jiulang to come in and sit down.

"Kuro..."

"Come here quickly." Wang Jiulang's eyebrows were clear, and he motioned for her to come down under the umbrella: "I have something to tell you."

It turned out that Kuro really came here to wait for him.

Gu Chongyang didn't dare to delay, nodded at Mrs. Baozhen, turned around and walked under Wang Jiulang's umbrella.

The man is as tall and straight as a pine tree, and the woman is as delicate and delicate as a bird. Under the same umbrella, the two are in an indescribable harmony.

Seeing the umbrella in her son's hand leaning towards the little girl, Mrs. Baozhen smiled, and she suddenly covered her eyes with a smile, tears streaming down her fingers.

She's been like this all her life, she doesn't expect Jiulang to forgive her, wait a little longer, wait until Jiulang puts the little girl in his heart, and when he is willing to marry her, she will light up the ancient Buddha every day and stand in front of the Buddha for herself Atonement.

The wind was strong, and although she held an umbrella, snow had already fallen on her skirt.The skirt embroidered with rose pink peonies soon became wet.As she walked, the dark green embroidered shoes were revealed, and the front of the embroidered shoes was also wet.

She must have had cold feet in such cold weather.

Wang Jiulang resisted the idea of ​​walking with her in his arms, and said softly, "I'm going to Tianjin for a trip, maybe ten days at the earliest, half a month at the slowest..."

He stopped and looked at her seriously.He wanted to ask her if there was anything she wanted, and he would bring it back to her from Tianjin.But when the words came to his lips, he felt unable to ask.

It was only then that Gu Chongyang realized that the two of them were holding the same umbrella so close, and Wang Jiulang's heroic sword eyebrows and shining star eyes became more and more captivating.

Her breath was a little short: "Jiulang, do you want me to pay attention to everything here for half a month?"

The little girl's face was a little red, and the mist she exhaled when she spoke, quickly disappeared. Her pretty nose and bright red lips were displayed in front of her without any hindrance.

Because of the difference in height between the two, when she was talking, she raised her head with difficulty, revealing a clean chin and a slender fair neck, with a graceful curve and delicate skin that met her eyes. top of her head.

"Yes. When I'm not at home, you have to come every day. Pay attention to whether anyone is coming at home, and observe the movements of your wife. If there is anything unusual, don't act rashly. I will deal with it when I come back."

Gu Chongyang held his breath and concentrated, feeling a heavy responsibility.If she is a husband, she will definitely choose to meet her lover when her son is not at home.But she is only a student of her husband, if she really bumped into her, she might have to choose to remain silent, and she must not catch the adulterous in a big way.

Fortunately, Jiulang told her to hold back and wait for him to come back to deal with it.I'm afraid he also took into account that she is the master's disciple, so he shouldn't embarrass him.

"Jiulang, don't worry, I will take this place firmly and never let bad guys in." Gu Chongyang thought for a while and said, "I might as well move here and stay with you every day, sir, until you come back from Tianjin." Now, I'll go back home again, what do you think?"

The black and white eyes were watery, looking at him without blinking, full of tension and seriousness after being entrusted with important tasks.

What a real silly boy!

He just gave her a little care, and she wholeheartedly helped him find that person.If it was really that easy, he would have found it long ago, why would he wait until now?

Wang Jiulang wanted to stretch out his hand to rub her head, but he retracted it in mid-air: "You have to protect yourself, that person is so bold, if he finds you, it would be bad if he tried to silence you."

"Will it be silenced?" Gu Chongyang suddenly stopped in his tracks, how could she have forgotten that that person hid so deeply, he was by no means an ordinary person, maybe his status was very high.He hid it tightly, and once he found out, it would be a catastrophe for her.

But so what?When Wang Jiulang saved her uncle's family, she made up her mind to do it for Wang Jiulang no matter what. Her life already belonged to Wang Jiulang.

"Are you afraid?"

Seeing her jaw tighten suddenly, Wang Jiulang knew that the little girl must be scared, but he didn't know how she would respond.

"I'm a little scared." Gu Chongyang was very serious: "I'm afraid it won't solve the problem. Jiulang, you can just go to Tianjin. I'll go back and pack my things and move here tomorrow morning."

Looking into her clear eyes, Wang Jiulang's breath became stagnant.

What is her relationship with him? She can do this for him!
Wang Jiulang's breathing was disturbed, and his heart was also disturbed. He grabbed her arm, stuffed the umbrella into her hand, turned and left.

"Jiulang..." Gu Chongyang called to stop him: "Did I say something wrong?"

"No." Wang Jiulang's voice was low and depressed, his footsteps were quick, and he walked away in the blink of an eye.

Gu Chongyang looked curiously, and put away the umbrella under the veranda, thinking about moving here tomorrow.

Wang Jiulang walked to Taiyi Lake at the fastest speed. A thin layer of ice was formed on the lake. Before the boat came over, he quickly crossed the river on the thin ice.

Seeing that he was approaching the shore, he held his breath and jumped forward. He fell heavily on the shore like an eagle with its wings broken, and his moon-white coat was stained with mud.

Ruifeng was shocked, and hurried forward to help him, only to see Wang Jiulang holding his head, clenching his teeth, trembling all over, but within a short while, his body was soaked through.

"Jiuye, your illness has struck again..."

"Help me back..." Wang Jiulang was short of breath, enduring the severe pain in his head, leaning on Ruifeng, and staggered back to the house.

Seeing him curled up on the bed covered in mud, holding his head and suppressing the pain, Ruifeng gradually felt a blur in front of his eyes: "Master Jiu, I'll invite another doctor, okay?"

"It's useless...you know me...my disease can't be cured...maybe I can find a good medicine in Tianjin this time..." Wang Jiulang's shortness of breath was like a dilapidated bellows: "Get out!"

"Jiuye!" Ruifeng groaned and wanted to step forward.

Wang Jiulang's eyes were red, his throat was crackling, and he uttered two words with difficulty: "Get out."

Ruifeng stopped in his tracks, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." Master Jiu didn't want people to see him in a mess, didn't want people to know that he was sick, and didn't want people to pity him, even him.

Ruifeng wiped away his tears, and the image of the former master appeared in front of his eyes, Master, I am sorry for you, I failed to take good care of Master Jiu, I should die, I should die...

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the cold wind whizzed through the branches. No one could hear Wang Jiulang's suppressed voice on the Taiyi lotus boat.

After returning to Gu’s house, Gu Chongyang told Mrs. Cui about going to live in Wang’s house, but of course he didn’t say the real reason: “Wang Jiulang is going to Tianjin, sir, he is afraid of being alone, so he wants to keep me in Wang’s house. .”

"Naturally." Mrs. Cui was very happy: "Over the years, Mrs. Baozhen has accepted seven or eight disciples, and you are the first one who can stay in the Wang family. You just go to accompany your husband, that's all. For one thing, you may not be able to participate in your second sister's Xiaoding, why don't you prepare your things and send them to her in advance?"

The world is impermanent, I really didn't expect Gu Chongzhu and He Runnian to reach Xiaoding.

Gu Chongyang paused and said: "Okay, I will send Xiao Ding's congratulatory gift to Second Sister later."

After returning to Guanju Courtyard, Gu Chongzhu came before Gu Chongyang went out: "Fourth sister, I heard that you are going to live in Wang's house? It's really enviable."

"Yes, your news is really effective." Gu Chongyang smiled: "The one who is really enviable is you, and you will make a small order the day after tomorrow."

Gu Chongzhu pursed her lips and smiled: "You know? I wanted to tell you in person. As soon as you left this morning, the matchmaker came over to propose marriage, and my aunt and mother agreed after discussing it."

Gu Chongzhu's eyebrows were beaming, and her delicate face was full of pride: "You don't even know how ugly Chai Xiyue's face was at that time! That bitch Chai Xiyue, since he came to our house, has been against me everywhere, and even tried to snatch her. My marriage is really beyond my control."

"Second sister, do you want to marry He Runnian, do you want to marry He Runnian, or is it because you want to fight against Chai Xiyue?"

"Of course I have both." Gu Chongzhu blushed, a little twitching: "I went to the gold shop to buy jewelry two days ago, and I met Mr. He. He has a good pace, speaks softly, looks handsome, and treats me very well." good."

"That's good." Gu Chongyang said: "You have to be careful of Chai Xiyue, she has ulterior motives and will never let it go."

"She's just my subordinate." Gu Chongzhu never cared about Chai Xiyue at all: "What kind of thing is she? With me around, she can never get close to Mr. He. Let's not talk about her anymore. I'm getting engaged. Hurry up." Bring the gift!"

In order to see Wang Jiulang off, Gu Chongyang got up early the next day.After breakfast, he got into the carriage and went to Wang's house.

Wang Jiulang had already packed everything, and when Gu Chongyang arrived, the group walked towards the gate.

When he reached the second gate, Wang Jiulang stopped: "Let's send it here."

"Jiulang!" Mrs. Baozhen suddenly said, "It's snowing so much outside, what should I do if I go out on horseback and get frostbite and get sick? Or don't ride a horse, and take a carriage instead?"

Wang Jiulang glanced at her, but didn't speak.

Madam Baozhen knew that he would not listen to her, and the worry and reluctance on her face became heavier: "You can also ride a horse, but you must be careful on the road. If the snow is heavy, you should stop and rest at the post station. I would rather slow down and make sure you Arrived safely."

Wang Jiulang squeezed the whip in his hand, feeling a little impatient.

Mrs. Baozhen looked at Wang Jiulang expectantly, hoping that he would agree to her request.

But Wang Jiulang just didn't speak.

Mrs. Baozhen grabbed the skirt of her shirt, looking sad.

"Sir, Jiulang is not a child anymore, he will take care of himself when he thinks about it. Besides, isn't there Uncle Ruifeng, who will accompany him along the way, Jiulang will definitely go and return safely." Gu Chongyang Smiling and comforting Mrs. Baozhen: "Tianjin is not very far away. Jiulang goes all the way, so we can enjoy the snow. We don't do anything at home, just wait for the return. The way to Nanjing was fine, sir. Relax."

Mrs. Baozhen felt a little relieved, looked at Wang Jiulang and said: "Boats and horses are very dangerous. There are many thieves in Tianjin, and bandits are like cattle. It is not as rich as Nanjing Wufu Minfeng. It is better to be more careful."

"Jiulang only took the official route and rested at the post station. Those bandits would not be so short-sighted." Gu Chongyang said: "I heard that Tianjin's Goubuli buns, ear-eye fried cakes and [-]th Street Mahua are famous all over the country. , Jiulang can eat enough when he goes to Tianjin, it’s not like we can’t eat anything at home.”

He went out to run some errands, but after she said so, it turned into a trip to the mountains and rivers.

Anyway, the worried look on Mrs. Baozhen's face gradually dissipated.

Wang Jiulang nodded at the two: "Go back, it's cold outside." After speaking, he strode away.

It was agreed to come back in half a month at the latest, but when Wang Jiulang did not come back until the end of October, Gu Chongyang has been living in Wang's house, the door is closed, except for the second old man who goes out and returns home, and does not open the door easily. Very vigilant.

At the beginning of November, a guest suddenly ushered in.

It turned out to be Hao Shaoyang.

He stood at the door and told the boy that he would never leave without seeing Gu Chongyang.

Gu Chongyang had no choice but to let someone let him in.
