Green Tea Specialist Male Lead

On this day, Gu Wenjing handled his official duties well, greeted his colleagues with a smile, and then went home from get off work.

In ancient times, officials went to work early, especially those who wanted to go to court. But in the afternoon, I get off work earlier, at four or five o’clock. But if the work of the day is not finished, you will have to work overtime.

Gu Wenjing's work has always been very efficient. Compared with other colleagues who have been grinding ink for a long time, he does things quickly and well, so he rarely works overtime.

Like today, with colleagues working overtime, Gu Wenjing can already go home from get off work happily.

As the son of the Hou Mansion, Gu Wenjing certainly didn't have to walk to and from get off work, but had a carriage to pick him up and down. He got into the carriage, and the young fellow Qingyan sat beside the coachman outside.

On the way home from get off work, he would pass by the Liu Ji Roast Duck Restaurant. Gu Wenjing remembered that his son Gu Zhenghong had made trouble to take Liu Ji's roast duck back last night, and said, "Stop! Qingyan, you go to Liu Ji to buy a roast duck."

Qingyan replied, jumped down, and walked to the line behind the long line of Liuji Roast Duck Restaurant.

Liu Ji Roast Duck Restaurant is a time-honored brand in Beijing. It is said that it is the craftsmanship of the retired imperial chef. Ordinary cooks cannot learn it. Many people will send someone to buy a roast duck that has just been baked. The business is very good.

When the Qingyan lined up, a man in gray who had just bought two roast ducks walked over and said to him, "You want to buy roast duck too? I have one for you."

Qingyan was somewhat inexplicable: "Who are you?"

The gray-clothed man said: "My master asks your elders to retell the past. You only need to tell Master Gu, it is Seventh elder who requested you."

With that said, the man in gray put a roast duck in his hand and gave it to Qingyan. Although Qingyan felt strange in his heart, he still took the roast duck and ran to the carriage to report to Gu Wenjing: "Sir, someone just gave it away. I’m a roast duck, and I said that the seventh master of his family invites you to remember the past.

"Seventh prince?" Gu Wenjing suddenly understood. He opened the curtain of the carriage and saw the gray-clothed man waiting beside him at a glance. He found that this man had indeed been seen by the seventh prince, so he got out of the carriage. , "Qingyan, you are here waiting for me."

Gu Wenjing followed the grey-clothed man into the box of a nearby restaurant and saw the Seventh Prince sitting there. He saluted: "Meet Your Highness Seven!"

The seventh prince smiled and said, "Master Gu, you don't need to be so polite outside." He pointed to the position opposite to him, "Master Gu, please sit down."

Gu Wenjing did not refuse, and sat down. The gray-clothed man who had just brought him in exited the box and carefully closed the door, so only him and the Seventh Prince were left in the box.

The seventh prince said: "On the disaster relief matter, my Highness hasn't thanked Master Gu yet!"

Gu Wenjing understood what he meant. Obviously, the information he wrote to the Seventh Prince was of great use, "His Royal Highness has been rewarded, and the next official is just doing his duty."

Seeing Gu Wenjing's respectful and alienated appearance, the seventh prince smiled and said, "Master Gu doesn't need to be so cautious, just drink tea and chat together as friends."

Gu Wenjing listened to the seven princes' words of wooing, but he didn't listen. The distance that should be kept still remained. Anyway, like other princes, he also respected the seventh princes, but he shouldn't at all. His kindness.

In this case, Gu Wenjing's attitude was almost completely understood by the Seventh Prince. Although he was unhappy that Gu Wenjing refused his wooing, he did not feel dissatisfied. After all, Gu Wenjing did not take refuge in other princes. It was just that Ningyuan Hou's mansion firmly maintained the position of a neutral royalist party.

He only had to think that when he became emperor in the future, Ningyuanhou Mansion would stand firm in his camp as firmly as it is today, and he would not be dissatisfied with Gu Wenjing at all for his sons.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

When Gu Wenjing sat on her carriage again, the nerves that had been tense also relaxed slightly.

He doesn't look down on the ancients just because he is a modern traveler. In fact, there are no simple ancients who can be in the officialdom. Once they are underestimated, they will only capsize. And the Seven Princes can stand out from the siege of so many brothers and the officials who support them behind the brothers, and become the final winner. There is no shortage of scheming city government.

In front of the Seventh Prince, Gu Wenjing didn't dare to relax too much, worried that he would be taken into the pit without paying attention to sell himself.

He sat on the carriage and closed his eyes slightly, but in his mind he was thinking about the conversation between himself and the seventh prince. He was sure that he did not cross the line and that the seventh prince did not intend to be angry, and he was very relieved.

He doesn't want to bet on a certain prince, but it doesn't mean that he wants to offend the next emperor. If he really offends the seventh prince, he will have to think hard to support another prince ascending the throne, so he might as well go directly to the seventh prince!

This level is just right now. He dispelled the Seventh Prince's idea of ​​wooing him, and also let the Seventh Prince see his ability, so as not to offend the Seventh Prince and be hated.

The carriage stopped, interrupting Gu Wenjing's contemplation. He opened his eyes, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, and the side door of the Hou Mansion was in front of him.

Gu Wenjing took Liu Ji's roast duck from Qingyan and went directly to Rongjinyuan.

I asked the next person and learned that his son Gu Zhenghong was playing in the small garden, so he went to the small garden to find a friend of Gu Zhenghong.

As soon as he approached, he heard the crisp laughter of Gu Zhenghong's little friend, and he seemed to have a good time.

Gu Wenjing couldn't help but smile, and his footsteps became much lighter. After going around a rockery, he saw Gu Zhenghong, who was squatting on the ground and pouting his butt, not knowing what he was looking at, and the people around Gu Zhenghong actually It's Yuan Susu.

Gu Wenjing paused, then accelerated and walked over. Yuan Susu, who was squatting next to Gu Zhenghong, raised his head and saw him, and stood up a little bit cramped: "Cousin..."

He did not reprimand Yuan Susu indiscriminately, but calmly asked, "What are you doing?"

Yuan Susu replied cautiously: "I'm teaching Hong'er to paint."

Gu Wenjing also saw that the land in front of Gu Zhenghong was painted with a lively bird and a bird with crooked lines looking at a somewhat deformed bird. Presumably the former was painted by Yuan Susu, and the latter by Gu Zhenghong's little friend. of.

He lifted his clothes and squatted down, took his son into his arms with one hand, and asked gently, "Hong'er likes painting?"

Little friend Gu Zhenghong nodded his head vigorously, and said in a milky voice: "Drawing is fun!"

Gu Wenjing touched his little head: "After that, dad teaches you how to read, call, and draw, okay?"

Gu Zhenghong's little friend patted his little hand soaked in dirt, and smiled so that Xiaomi's teeth were revealed: "Okay, okay! Learn from Daddy!"

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing asked the maid serving Gu Zhenghong to take him to wash his hands and face. After Gu Zhenghong left, Gu Wenjing turned his head and looked at Yuan Susu, who was standing aside with his head slightly hanging in anxiety.

Yuan Susu saw Gu Wenjing look over, she said nervously: "Cousin, I really just passed by here and saw Hong'er so cute, so I played with Hong'er for a while without holding back."

She was worried that Gu Wenjing might mistakenly think that she had no good intentions for Gu Zhenghong. If she had a son, she might really look after Gu Zhenghong in every possible way. But the current situation is that she may not have a child of her own. After all, she has been married to Gu Wenjing for several years and she is still a big girl.

So now Yuan Susu has also rested her mind, and has been holding her own copy of the example of the young lady in peace, plus the Yuan family has given her all the wealth left by the Yuan family, and her wealthy life is still Very chic, I didn't want to touch other thoughts to spoil my current life.

Gu Wenjing nodded indifferently, "It's nothing, you can be regarded as Hong'er's aunt. It's fine to play with him for a while."

On the surface, he seemed to feel relieved about Yuan Susu. In fact, Yuan Susu had his eyeliner by his side. Basically, Yuan Susu couldn't hide everything from him. He even bought out the properties in Yuan Susu's hands. He was not coveting the property in Yuan Susu's hands. He was just worried that she would use this wealth to do disgusting things, such as drug or something.

It can be said that Yuan Susu has been under Gu Wenjing’s all-round surveillance in recent years. In recent years, Yuan Susu has indeed been safe and has not done any small actions. It may be because she saw that Yuan did not support her, and Gu Wenjing did not wait to see her, knowing that he was. It's useless to mess up, so I got down to be honest.

Yuan Susu's security over the past few years, Gu Wenjing is not like a big enemy to her approaching her son, no matter what, she is also Gu Zhenghong's cousin, and it is fine to play with the child for a while.

Gu Wenjing and Yuan Susu fell into silence for a while. After he walked in, he kept avoiding Yuan Susu because he knew the plot. Except for Yuan Susu's initiative to entangle him, he really rarely talked to her. Now that the two are alone, there is nothing to say.

Gu Wenjing thought for a while, and took the lead to break the silence, and asked politely: "Can the people around you serve me carefully? If someone is negligent, just ask your mother or Yuhua to substitute for you."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Susu suddenly recalled that when she first entered the Hou Mansion many years ago, she was not familiar with her cousin, and his cousin was so politely concerned about how she was doing in the Hou Mansion.

My cousin has always been so polite to her, but before, she felt that this polite care was reminding her that Hou Mansion is not her home, she is just an orphan who lives in a guest house.

Now she has become her cousin's concubine as she wished, and she has become Hou's own person, not just a guest. But when he heard his cousin's kind words again today, Yuan Susu felt strangely relieved.

Perhaps it was because the cousin who was a guest in the Hou Mansion was much better than the unloved concubine.

Yuan Susu lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Thank you for your cousin's concern. The servants are doing well."
