Green Tea Specialist Male Lead
Chapter 50: The hero is a scholar
I heard that after all, it was just hearsay that Gu Wenjing had not been able to find out whether the Li family had privately married Li Cheng.
After all, Li Cheng kept his filial piety because of the death of his grandmother, which delayed his marriage, and he just caught up with the township examination examination after filial piety. Gu Wenjing would inevitably consider the possibility of getting married after Li Jia’s private marriage for Li Chengding and waiting for him to be named on the gold list. He wanted to find out from Li Cheng through his drunkenness.
The answer Li Cheng gave was exactly what Gu Wenjing expected, but when Li Cheng said that he wanted to marry his sister Gu Linglong, Gu Wenjing felt very troubled again.
Although he walked halfway through the road, Gu Linglong, a sensible and cute sister, really made him love her after spending more than three years together. Especially with the comparison of Gu Yuanyuan from the previous life, it is even more obvious that Gu Linglong is a good sister and is a well-behaved and considerate.
Thinking that he wanted to marry his sensible and considerate sister to another man, he couldn't help feeling the sadness of marrying his daughter.
In the ancient world, a woman relied on her natal family before she got married, her husband after she got married, and her son when she was old, and depended on others for her whole life.
Gu Wenjing is confident that he can be Gu Linglong's life supporter, but he can't guarantee that she will meet a scumbag after marrying. There are too many ways to talk and study in the house.
Gu Wenjing, a big man, may not be able to think about his sister's marriage with special consideration. All he can do is to choose a brother-in-law who has a future for his sister and he can suppress it.
In the future, as long as he can suppress his brother-in-law, it must be his face, and the brother-in-law's family will not dare to treat his sister slowly.
In particular, it is better to pin the happiness of the younger sister on the conscience of the brother-in-law than on the power of his brother.
Li Cheng is Gu Wenjing's best choice right now, and it seems that Li Cheng also has expectations for this marriage.
Gu Wenjing still pretended to be drunk, pretending not to hear Li Cheng's words, and was helped by him and sent to Mo Yan. Before leaving, Li Cheng did not forget to tell Mo Yan to say: "I will come to visit Brother Gu tomorrow!"
Gu Wenjing squinted slightly, took a look at Li Cheng, and hummed dissatisfiedly: "I really miss my sister!"
The next day.
In the early morning, Gu Wenjing had just got up to wash and was eating breakfast, when he received a report from the concierge: "Master Li is here to visit!"
Gu Wenjing got up and walked out, and said, "Quickly invite Brother Li in!"
Li Cheng entered Gu Wenjing’s newly bought house. He looked at a small but well-decorated house. He smiled and said, "Brother Gu, this house is good. When I get admitted to Shujishi and stay in Beijing, I will be right next to him. Buy a house and be a neighbor with Brother Gu."
Gu Wenjing smiled and led the way: "Well, I'm just waiting to be a neighbor with you."
Li Cheng saw the breakfast that had not been withdrawn, and was slightly startled, knowing that he had come at an untimely time. He smiled and said, "Brother Gu is eating breakfast, just right. I remembered that I came to see Brother Gu, but I didn’t have time to eat. Breakfast, I wonder if I can have a meal with Brother Gu?"
Gu Wenjing immediately ordered the inkstone to go to the kitchen to prepare another breakfast.
The two of them sat at the table, and no one started to eat. Li Cheng deliberatedly said: "Gu brother, what you said yesterday, I wonder if you still count it?"
Gu Wenjing deliberately pretended to be stupid: "What are you talking about? You also know that I drank too much yesterday, and I can't remember some of the words."
Li Cheng's cheeks were a little red, and he pretended to be calm and said, "That's...you said about the marriage between our two families."
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Although Gu Wenjing had already determined that Lee Cheng was the choice for his wife, he felt uncomfortable about marrying his younger sister, so he deliberately pretended to be confused: "Get married? Oh, I thought about it, but I thought you were nineteen. , Presumably your family has either married a wife for you or made a marriage for you. We are afraid that we have no destiny to be in-laws."
Li Cheng hurriedly said, "Brother Gu misunderstood! I kept my filial piety because of the death of my grandmother and caught up with the rural examination. So in order not to distract me, my parents didn't make a decision for me."
Gu Wenjing looked hesitant: "Well...I don’t want to hide it from you. My sister just got married, and the family was reluctant to marry her so early, so she wanted to make a marriage first, and then get married after two years. You are not young, your family should I'm so hurrying that I can't wait for my sister."
Li Cheng smiled and said, "This is fine, I am willing to wait, and I will explain to my father and mother."
Li Cheng wanted to marry Gu Linglong, Gu Wenjing's younger sister, of course not because he met Gu Linglong and fell in love with her at first sight. The Li family is far from the Gu family. He has never been to Qingyang County. How did he fall in love with Gu Linglong at first sight?
He wants to marry Gu Linglong because Gu Wenjing is her brother.
Since making friends these days, Li Cheng has deeply felt Gu Wenjing's outstanding talents and exquisite methods. Such a capable person, even if there is no backing, will definitely be able to break into a world in the officialdom.
And Li Cheng may have been in front of Gu Wenjing, a talented son, and was proud of his status as a son of a man, but as he hit a wall since entering Beijing, he deeply realized that in this place, he is not a son of a man. , He is not a big second-class scholar.
Gu Wenjing, on the other hand, holds the honorary status of the third "Big Three Yuan" champion in the history of Daqi, which is impressive, and even the emperor admires him.
So Li Cheng decided to follow Gu Wenjing in the future, and what is a stronger relationship than marriage?
Li Cheng gave a guarantee, and Gu Wenjing thought for a while, then said: "When I return home, I will raise this matter with my father and mother, and my sister's marriage will have to be in charge."
Li Cheng nodded his head with a smile. In his opinion, Gu Wenjing, as the most promising person in the Gu family, suggested that Gu's father and mother should also seriously consider whatever he wanted. When he agreed, the marriage would be pretty stable.
"Brother Gu, after I got home, I told my parents and asked the matchmaker to come and propose marriage."
As a champion, Gu Wenjing was originally awarded the sixth grade Hanlin Academy, and because of his "big three yuan" status, he is more eye-catching than ordinary champions. Even if he comes from a poor family, no one will shun him on the bright side.
Gu Wenjing didn't care even if he kept small movements secretly, it was much better than when he entered the officialdom after crossing the first world. I remember that he was dressed as the first son of the Houfu in the first world, and he was cold and violently violent by the elderly for a while when he entered the imperial courtyard, and then slowly blended into it.
Xinke Jinshi had a few months of vacation to visit relatives in the hometown, so Gu Wenjing applied to the head of the Hanlin Academy and was granted a three-month vacation.
Three months is not short. Excluding the time spent on the incoming circuit, he can stay in Qingyang County for more than two months.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
On the way back home, Gu Wenjing walked alone.
An Jingcheng, who was on the road with him, failed to be admitted to the Jinshi, and after the three of them celebrated after the test results, An Jingcheng returned home early. Li Cheng wanted to walk with him, but how different is it?
Gu Wenjing returned to his hometown as a sixth-grade Beijing official this time, which is not the same as when he came, and his treatment is also very different.
As soon as he stepped into the boundaries of Qingyang County, he learned that the county magistrate of Qingyang had already come and waited to meet him.
The county magistrate of Qingyang is just a fellow Jinshi with no background, and the county magistrate is a seventh-rank official position, which is two ranks behind the sixth-rank official who Gu Wenjing entered the officialdom. Therefore, the county magistrate of Qingyang, even when facing Gu Wenjing Sorry, I still have to salute him respectfully on the face, saying "Xiaguan".
The county magistrate of Qingyang saluted him because of his rank, but Gu Wenjing could not accept it calmly, because when he was the original examiner, the magistrate of Qingyang was still his chief examiner. With this level of incense, he should not be too indifferent at this moment. . And the Gu family members are still in Qingyang County under the jurisdiction of his county magistrate!
Gu Wenjing raised the county magistrate of Qingyang and smiled cordially: "The magistrate does not need to be so polite!"
The county magistrate of Qingyang invited him: "The lower official has prepared a boiled wine. I wonder if Master Gu would like to show his face?"
Gu Wenjing looked embarrassed: "The county magistrate, it's not that the official is unwilling. It's just that the parents in the family are old and the wife has just given birth. The official is eager to return home. Please forgive me!"
The county magistrate of Qingyang was not surprised. His invitation was meant to be a formality, and he quickly changed his words: "Then this banquet for Master Gu will be changed before Master Gu leaves for Beijing! Just treat it as Qingyang County. My fathers and villagers, practice it for Master Gu."
Gu Wen nodded at the scenic spot, "That official is disrespectful."
Gu Wenjing bid farewell to the county magistrate of Qingyang and returned to Gu's house.
Nowadays, the Gu family is no longer as young as when Gu Wenjing was first dressed. After he was hit, Gu's father bought the two houses next door and expanded it into a big house. Now, looking at it, it looks like a big family.
As soon as Gu Wenjing went home, the father and mother Gu, who had been notified by his servants, all came to welcome him in person.
Father Gu is still relatively stable, but just standing there looking at him with joy and pride, mother Gu is less reserved, and rushes to Gu Wenjing to look at him carefully: "I'm thinner! I've lost a lot of weight!"
Gu Wenjing didn't think he was any thinner, but there was a kind of thinness called'Mother thinks you are thin'. He didn't refute it either. He smiled and said, "The son is back now, so the mother will make up for the son."
Mother Gu cried with joy: "Okay! Mother will make up for you!"
Father Gu came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Wenjing, good job!" He was not so excited at this time, but no one would have thought that he was pleasantly surprised when he received the good news that his son was admitted to the champion. Almost fainted.
Gu Linglong also raised her head and smiled at Gu Wenjing, "Brother, welcome home!"
Gu Wenjing touched the top of her head.
He didn't see Luo Qingyi coming to welcome him, and asked a little strangely: "Mother, why don't you see the lady?"
Mother Gu smiled and said, "Qing Yi just gave birth to a daughter and is still in confinement!"
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Gu Wenjing frowned slightly: "Gave birth so soon? Did you have a daughter?"
Although Luo Qingyi is the second daughter of her husband's son in the plot, but his son died, but Gu Wenjing never thought that after his arrival, the plot would remain the same. It is still possible that the deceased son will be dropped by the butterfly.
What he cares about is that Luo Qingyi actually gave birth in advance!
He went to Beijing to rush for the exam in early February this year. Luo Qingyi said that he was pregnant for eight months. In fact, he was only more than seven months pregnant, which was less than eight months.
Gu Wenjing calculated Luo Qingyi’s due date. There should be more than half a month before Luo Qingyi gave birth. He originally wanted to take time off and go home to accompany Luo Qingyi to give birth. He didn’t expect to be told that Luo Qingyi had already given birth when he arrived home. gave birth? !
Seeing that Gu Wenjing's face did not look happy, she thought he did not like his daughter, so she persuaded: "Giving birth to children is destined to heaven, and you can't blame Qingyi, and the results will be good after the first flowers!"
Knowing that Gu's mother was misunderstood, Gu Wenjing quickly explained: "I'm not patriarchal, but I'm just wondering how the lady gave birth ahead of schedule. It stands to reason that there should be about 20 days before the due date, right?"
Gu's mother's face sank, and she said faintly: "Qingyi's sister is seriously ill and bedridden. Please ask Qingyi to visit. As a result, Qingyi gave birth prematurely at Qi's house. Fortunately, the mother and daughter are safe."
Gu's mother was really dissatisfied with Luo Qingyi's sister Luo Liuyi, saying that she was seriously ill and could not get up and was about to die. Gu's mother didn't believe it. She rushed to Qi's home when Luo Qingyi was premature. Seeing Luo Liuyi waiting outside the delivery room, he didn't seem to be seriously ill or dying at all.
And if Luo Liuyi is really seriously ill, how can he see a pregnant woman in his illness? What if it spreads to her daughter-in-law and granddaughter?
It's just that Luo Qingyi's heart is soft. When Luo Liuyi sent someone to speak, she said that she wanted to see her sister for the last time. Gu's mother was dissatisfied and would not object. After all, people are dying, and she wants to see her sister. How can she stop?
As a result, Luo Liuyi did not die, and the illness gradually recovered, but Luo Qingyi was frightened and gave birth prematurely in Qi's family.
When Gu Wenjing heard of Luo Liuyi's incident, his face became dark and his power was full.
He went to visit Luo Qingyi, who was still in confinement. The Gu family did not have the same rules as the Ningyuan Hou Mansion in the first world, so Gu Wenjing went straight into the room and saw Luo Qingyi, who was pale and looked weak.
Luo Qingyi was pleasantly surprised to see Gu Wenjing: "Msang Gong!" He just thought that his appearance is really ugly now, and he lowered his head embarrassedly, "How come the man came in? I didn't even dress up. This look made me laugh. Up."
Gu Wenjing sat down by the bed, reached out to hold her hand, and said warmly: "I don't laugh, but feel a little sad. You are giving birth to me, madam, thank you for your husband."
No matter how many times he has experienced it, seeing his wife struggling to give birth to a child for him, he is always moved indescribably.
Luo Qingyi smiled, his face flushed, and said softly: "Has the Xianggong seen his daughter?"
Gu Wenjing said: "Not yet, I will come to see you first."
Luo Qingyi ordered the nanny to bring the child to Gu Wenjing. It was not the first time that Gu Wenjing had a child, but his previous feelings were removed by the system. Recalling that his children could not remember the relationship between father and son, now New children in the new world can still awaken his love and expectation for children.
Gu Wenjing stretched out his hand to hug the child and looked at the white and tender face of the baby in the swaddle, but he did not have any feeling of liking in his heart, and even faintly rejected it.
How is this going?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Gu Wenjing did not show the rejection of this child in his heart, but he did not show affection either. He only hugged and handed the child to the nurse.
When Luo Qingyi saw it, he asked a little nervously: "Msang-gong doesn't like his daughter?"
He was misunderstood as patriarchal again, but Gu Wenjing didn't care this time, because he really didn't like this daughter. He didn't like her daughter, but that child.
The instinctive feeling of rejection from the bottom of his heart made him unlikable.
Gu Wenjing has a solemn heart. He has traveled so long and has never encountered such a situation. Why is that?
Gu Wenjing calmed Luo Qingyi a few words, and then left.
He found the inkstone and ordered: "Go and check what happened on the day that Madam gave birth! No matter the details, you must find out everything!"
Inkwell quickly responded.
Inkstone does not have much staff in Qingyang County, but now anyone in Qingyang County does not know Gu Wenjing's name, he only needs to pull out Gu Wenjing's banner, and there are few obstacles in the investigation process.
Within a few days, the investigation report submitted by inkstone appeared on Gu Wenjing's desk.
Gu Wenjing's eyes fell icy on a few lines-Qi Ranna's Aunt Zhang gave birth a day earlier than his wife, and it was not announced until the second day that Aunt Zhang gave birth to a baby boy. On the third day, Mrs. Qi Shao held the concubine born to Aunt Zhang to her knees, but repeatedly treated harshly. According to the wife who delivered the baby to Aunt Zhang, Aunt Zhang gave birth to a daughter.
Gu Wenjing never expected that Luo Liuyi did not wait until a few years later to act on Luo Qingyi like the plot did. Instead, he took advantage of Luo Qingyi's birth to a child to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix into the phoenix!
If it weren’t for his instinctive feeling of rejection when he picked up the child, he thought of investigating what happened to Luo Qingyi’s birth day in Qi’s family, I’m afraid he would raise Qi Ran’s concubine as a concubine, but his concubine would instead. Being a **** in Qi's house is pitiful!
After Gu Wenjing's anger was over, he instructed Mo Yan to continue looking for sufficient evidence, and then he went to Qi's house in person.
Gu Wenjing came to Qi's house in person, and Qi Ran, including Qi Ran's father, had to open the front door to greet him.
Facing Qi's father and Qi Ran's respect and kindness, Gu Wenjing walked into Qi's house with a cold face.
He directly ordered Qi Ran to say: "The officer heard that you just got a son, go and bring the child to the officer to see!"
Both Qi's father and Qi Ran are a bit inexplicable. A concubine born to an aunt, even if he was only born one day earlier than the daughter of Gu's daughter, wouldn't be noticed by Gu Wenjing, right?
However, no matter how strange it was, Qi Ran still did not dare to disobey Gu Wenjing's order. He went to the backyard to hug the child.
Luo Liuyi didn't know it at all. When she learned from her servant that Qi Ran had taken the child, the child had been delivered to Gu Wenjing by Qi Ran.
Gu Wenjing holding this thin baby, the kindness and joy in his heart can not be faked, there is no rejection at all, the feeling of blood connection makes Gu Wenjing feel a little unscientific.
However, thinking of the big eyeball system, Gu Wenjing felt that this kind of unscientific was also very good, at least he would not like to be a father.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Father Qi and Qi Ran looked at Gu Wenjing's fatherly smile at the child in their arms with subtle expressions, and there were all kinds of guesses in their hearts.
Gu Wenjing only cared about teasing his son, and ignored what the Qi family father and son were thinking.
At this time, Luo Liuyi came over and said, "Qi Ran, where did you carry the child?"
Before she finished her words, she saw Gu Wenjing standing in front of Qi's father. Her gaze fell on the baby in Gu Wenjing's arms, her face paled: "Sister, brother-in-law!" She smiled reluctantly. , "When did brother-in-law come back?"
Gu Wenjing looked at Luo Liuyi indifferently: "Are you afraid? Afraid that the officer will find you stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix?"
Luo Liuyi's face suddenly paled, and his body couldn't help shaking under Gu Wenjing's majestic gaze, "I...I...Brother-in-law..."
She couldn't even say a word to justify herself.
In the end, under Gu Wenjing's icy gaze, he slumped to the ground with a look of despair, and stopped trying to argue.
Gu Wenjing hugged his son, and said indifferently to Qi's father and Qi Ran who were full of disbelief: "My son was taken away by the official. As for Qi Ran's concubine, you can come and take it away as soon as possible!"
After speaking, Gu Wenjing left the Qi family with the child, leaving only the Qi family panicking, which caused an uproar.
When Gu Wenjing returned to Gu's home, Gu's father and Gu's mother were shocked when he saw him holding a child, "This child is..."
Gu Wenjing replied: "This is my son, the real child of my wife and I!"
Gu's father and Gu's mother asked in shock: "What's the matter?"
Gu Wenjing told his father and mother what he had investigated.
Luo Liuyi feels jealous towards Luo Qingyi. The only thing that can comfort her is that she gave birth to a son just over a year after she married into the Qi family, and Luo Qingyi has never been happy after marrying into the Gu family for three years.
However, this little sense of superiority was broken after Luo Qingyi became pregnant.
Luo Liuyi compared Qi Ran's concubine during her pregnancy and Gu Wenjing's non-female color during Luo Qingyi's pregnancy, gentle and considerate. The more she thought about it, the more she felt unwilling.
Finally, after learning that Luo Qingyi's expected delivery date was only less than a month away from Qi Ran's Aunt Zhang, Luo Liuyi's heart moved and the idea of turning a dragon into a phoenix was born.
Luo Liuyi only thought that Luo Qingyi wanted to raise a child for others for a lifetime, and Luo Qingyi's biological child was seeking a life under her hands in a humble status, and she felt very comfortable.
In fact, Luo Liuyi still regrets that he was not able to get pregnant at the same time as Luo Qingyi. Wouldn't it be better to let his children go to take care of the family? Why should I take advantage of Aunt Zhang's concubine?
Luo Liuyi's plan cannot be said to be perfect, as long as no one is thinking about stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix, and no one is going to investigate, she will naturally get her wish.
But Luo Liuyi didn't expect Gu Wenjing to wear it. With the male protagonist's halo on and the system close to him, he could tell whether the child was his or her by just relying on his heart.
Gu Wenjing took the initiative to investigate, how can she not reveal her stuff?
It didn't take long for Inkwell to buy Luo Liuyi and then send all the women back.
There were all personal and physical evidences, and Luo Liuyi did not give Luo Liuyi a chance to quibble.
Gu Wenjing didn't conceal this. After all, Gu's daughter was replaced by a son, and everyone knew that something was wrong. So even if he did not notify the Luo family, the Luo family knew what stupid Luo Liuyi had done.
