The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

One hundred and thirty-five

Mrs. Gu made a big first-year fire in the ancestral hall, so that everyone in the house knew that Gu Changqing had imprisoned the two younger brothers in the ancestral hall.

However, Lord Gu was not aware of this matter. He had been plagued by trivial matters of the Ministry of Industry recently and had not returned to the Hou residence for several days.

"Master Gu, the Ministry of War is urging again." said an official under Mr. Gu.

Gu Houye sat in the chair and looked at the piles of official documents on the desk, one head and two big: "Chu Chui Chui, I know it all day long! Isn't it already casting? It's only been a few days?"

The officials suffered unreasonable disasters and were scolded at both ends, and they felt very bitter: "The Ministry of War said that our speed is too slow, and they can't wait for two months."

Lord Gu said angrily, "We have to wait if we can't wait! What they want is weapons, and weapons are made of iron, not mud! Is it that fast?"

The official broke a cold sweat: "The Ministry of War said that it will give you a maximum of one month, and you must make those long swords..."

"One month? He's daydreaming!" Gu Houye really didn't want to make those swords for the Ministry of War, but their technology is limited now. If they can get Liang Guo's latest water drainage technology, maybe the amount of iron smelting can be improved. greatly increase.

The official said again: "But, the Ministry of War said that with just such a weapon, a private iron shop can make it, why can't our Ministry of Industry make it?"

"Can a folk iron shop be made?" Gu Houye smiled sarcastically, "The Ministry of War has even used the ability to spread rumors for weapons?"

The official said embarrassingly: "No, Mr. Gu, the lower official seems to have really heard about this. The folks have come up with a kind of box, which is more effective than the drain in our court, with stronger wind and more firepower. Smelt ten times more iron."

"Ten times?" Lord Gu waved his hand, "No, no, no, absolutely impossible." Liang Guo couldn't do it. What Liang Guo taught Zhao Guo was the first water drainage technology, but it was not ten times as good as them. difference.

The official asked: "Would you like to send someone to check first? I heard that it is a place called Qingquan Town on the other side of Youzhou."

Lord Gu waved his hand: "Oh, it's even more impossible, my lord just came from Youzhou! With such a powerful technique, would my lord not know?"

Gu Houye firmly refused to investigate.

But the Ministry of War couldn't wait and sent someone directly over.

In early November, a light snow fell in the capital.

As soon as Xiaojingkong went out, he didn't look at the road, and Ba Haw fell.

Since going down the mountain, Xiao Jingkong has rarely wrestled, and Gu Jiao almost forgot that he is a famous wrestling monk.

However, his technique of throwing himself was still as skilled as ever, hugging his head, bending his knees, like a small ball, rolling around in the yard.

Gu Jiao just came out of the stove.

Xiao Jingkong rolled to her feet, then spread out her hands and feet, and looked at Gu Jiao cutely.

Gu Jiao picked him up and patted off the snowflakes on him: "Why did you fall down again?"

Xiao Jingkong was intoxicated in Gu Jiao's arms: "Because Jiaojiao is so beautiful, I'm fascinated by Jiaojiao!"

Gu Jiao: "..."

The wrestling monk turned into an earthy love story monk?

Xiao Qingkong's hair is short, worried that he is cold,

Gu Jiao bought him a hat, a tiger head hat. The tiger's eyes are big and round, and Xiao Qingkong wears it to be fierce.

He generally does not wear it in the academy, which is considered childish.

But in front of Gu Jiao, he not only wore a tiger head hat, but also a tiger head vest and tiger head shoes.

After selling the cuteness, I asked for a small clearance to kiss and hopped back to my house with my brother-in-law.

After finishing the early morning business, he changed back to Niu Hulu · Jingkong, and went to school with a serious face!

After a few days of training, Gu Yan was in good shape and was ready to go to class.

Gu Jiao prepared the hand warmer, one for her aunt, one for Xiao Liulang and three younger brothers.

Xiao Liulang took Xiao Jingkong to Guozijian, while Gu Jiao sent Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun to school.

When walking out of the alley, Gu Yan looked around.

Gu Jiao asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"No." Gu Yan looked up at the sky.

Still say no? These days, he has been running to the door every day, looking at the end of the alley, Gu Jiao is his sister, how can he not know his mind?

However, that person has never appeared since he rescued Gu Yan.

After Gu Jiao sent the two to the academy, they went to Chang'an Avenue.

Having been here for so long, she has mastered the nearby terrain.

She thought about it, although they still have one thousand taels of silver on hand, but the price of the capital is so high, they can't really sit and eat at home.

She bought herbal medicine at the market, and prepared some medicine for golden sore by herself, and planned to take it to a nearby medical clinic to sell.

As soon as she walked to the first hospital, she saw an acquaintance: "Liu Liu."

The young man who was called Xiaoliu turned around blankly, his eyes lit up: "Miss Gu? Have you come to the capital?"

Gu Jiao nodded: "My husband came to study at the Imperial College, and we all moved here."

Xiao Liu hurriedly bowed: "Congratulations to Young Master Xiao, congratulations to Miss Gu!"

Xiaoliu is the coachman of Erdong's family. He used to run a lot of legs for Gu Jiao when he was in the medical center, and he also went to get the iron tools for opening the mountain.

"Where's the second owner?" Gu Jiao asked.

Xiao Liu's expression dimmed: "The situation of the second owner is not very good. I can't understand a few words. He is in the pub over there. I'll take Miss Gu over there."

"Okay." Gu Jiao replied.

On the way to the tavern, Xiao Liu said more or less, roughly because the second owner suddenly returned to Beijing because Master Hu was dying.

Er Dong's family rushed back to the capital without stopping, but they still failed to see Mr. Hu for the last time.

The Hu family did not even wait for the second owner to return, and then buried Master Hu.

In fact, Er Dong's family was only one day late. If he waited for another day, Er Dong's family would be able to see off the old father in person, and the Hu family would not even give him such an opportunity.

This is not the most hateful thing, but the most hateful thing is that the Hu family even slapped the rake, slandering the second owner's indifference that even the old man was sick, and did not come to the funeral.

Zhao Guo ruled the world with filial piety, and if a hat of unfilial piety was buckled, Erdong's reputation was over.

"He was kicked out by the Hu family..." Xiao Liu wiped away tears, unable to bear the grievance and heartache for the second owner.

"I see." Gu Jiao came to the door of the wing of the tavern and said to Xiao Liudao, "Come over to Duo Duo for some hot tea."

"Yeah!" Xiao Liu choked and responded, turning around to find hot tea.

Gu Jiao entered the wing, and a pungent smell of wine rushed to her face.

After not seeing him for a few months, the once high-spirited Er Dongjia was like a sloppy drunk, paralyzed on the floor without any image, and he didn't know how many empty wine bottles were poured beside him. He stared blankly at the roof and didn't move. , as if dead.

Gu Jiao stepped over the wine bottle, squatted down beside him, opened the small medicine box, and took out two hangover medicines: "Here."

The second owner did not move.

At this time, Xiao Liu came into the house with hot water.

Gu Jiao took the hot water and asked Xiao Liu to help Er Dong's house up, forcing him to take the hangover medicine.

Xiao Liu looked at the second owner, who was disheveled and had a scruffy beard, and said in a choked voice, "Master, Miss Gu is here to see you."

Er Dongjia sat on the ground with a dull expression.

Gu Jiao glanced at him and asked calmly, "How did your father die?"

Er Dongjia suddenly recovered and looked at Gu Jiao in a daze, his emotions that he didn't dare to express in front of his family suddenly collapsed, his tears fell uncontrollably, he hugged his head and cried all over!

Gu Jiao didn't bother him.

Waiting quietly for him to finish crying.

Xiaoliu withdrew with red eyes.

I don't know how long it took, the second owner finally calmed down.

He wiped his tears with his sleeves and looked at Gu Jiao with a smile: "Girl, why are you here?"

"Accompany my husband to study at the Imperial College."

"Ah, Young Master Xiao is in high school, so congratulations!"

"what's wrong with you?"

Maybe it was because the hangover medicine worked, or maybe it was just now that we all cried out, and the whole person felt a lot better. He smiled nonchalantly: "It's nothing, it's been a while since I've been in a daze, so I'm making you laugh."

"Are you going back to Hu's house?" Gu Jiao asked.

The second owner was stunned.

After a long while, he smiled bitterly: "I can't go back."

"How is your father treating you?"

Er Dongjia thought for a long time: "...It used to be better."

Before the death of his mother, the family of three lived a happy life. Since he had a stepmother at home, he also had a stepfather.

"So you're blaming your stepmother?"

The second owner wanted to say, how many good stepmothers can there be? When the words reached his lips, he suddenly remembered that Gu Jiao's mother was also a stepmother.

He said, "If my stepmother could be half as kind as Madam Hou, I wouldn't be so."

"But it's useless. No matter how kind she is, her three stepsons still don't like her."

"So do you think I was wrong?"

"No, you are all right. I won't comment on the Hou Mansion's affairs, but it is your father's fault for yours. He is so ruthless to you, why do you feel sorry for his death?"

Gu Jiao is not blaming the second owner, she really doesn't understand.

There was no such item in her emotional stockpile.

Whoever treats her well, she treats whoever is kind, and whoever bullies her, she bullies back, even if the other party is her own father.

She looked at Er Dong's house strangely.

The second owner knew that she was a different girl, and her thoughts were different from theirs. He smiled bitterly and explained patiently, "Actually, I don't understand either, maybe... I just remember what he once treated me. Okay."

Gu Jiao still didn't understand.

Maybe she won't understand it for the rest of her life.

"Don't go back to Hu's house, what are you going to do?"

"do not know."

Gu Jiao thought about it seriously: "Why don't you sell medicine with me!"

Second East: "..."

No comfort, thank you!

At first, the second owner thought that Gu Jiao was really going to take him to the streets to sell medicine, but later they realized that Gu Jiao was going to open a hospital.

The second owner of the capital will pay, and Gu Jiao Technology will be a shareholder, each holding 50% of the shares.

If others persuade Er Dongjia like this, Er Dongjia will definitely not agree, he has no confidence and no fighting spirit.

Gu Jiao is different.

There is a convincing power in her.

Er Dongjia slammed his heart: "Okay! Just do it!"

It's just that the second owner's family was expelled from the Hu family's house, and they didn't have much money on hand. Even if they bought the cheapest shop nearby, they would need at least three thousand taels.

"I can lend you a little bit." Gu Jiao said, "But it will be interest."

Erdongjia: I always feel that something is wrong!

At noon, Xiao Liulang came back for dinner, and Gu Jiao told Xiao Liulang about the use of silver. There were 1,000 taels left in the house, and she probably used 800 taels.

In the study, Xiao Liulang was arranging the books to take to the academy. Hearing this, he said without thinking, "The silver is for you, so you don't need to tell me."

So generous.

Gu Jiao snorted: "Why don't you ask me?"

"What?" Xiao Liulang asked.

"Usury loan!" Gu Jiao said.

Xiao Liulang was stunned.

"Haha." Gu Jiao was amused by him again, "The one who lied to you was lent to someone else! You know that person, the second owner of Huichuntang."

Xiao Liulang seemed to have no intention of saying: "I heard that you also went to his house to be a drug boy?"

Gu Jiao blinked and said, "Who told you?"

Xiao Liulang said, "Mother-in-law."

Gu Jiao: "..."

Since discovering that her box may be a small medicine box, Xiao Liulang has guessed something vaguely, but he won't break it if she doesn't say it.

They have each other's secrets.

His identity, her origin.

Xiao Liulang picked up a cup of hot tea on the table and took a sip.

Gu Jiao snorted, pointed to another cup of tea on the table and said, "This is what I just drank, and this cup is for you."

Xiao Liulang's expression froze.

Gu Jiao looked at him with her cheeks raised: "You also drink what I drink, round up, are we two indirect ones?"

Xiao Liulang's face flushed, he put down the teacup, and said solemnly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't drink from the place you just drank!"

"Oh." Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows, don't blush if you have the ability, "I'm going to cook."

"Well." Xiao Liulang looked serious.

Gu Jiao gave him one last look and turned to cook.

The sound of pots and pans ding dong dong came from the stove, and Xiao Liulang was relieved.

He slowly picked up the teacup and took a careful sip.

"Brother-in-law!"

Xiao Qingkong suddenly jumped in!

Xiao Liulang felt a guilty conscience, and he was about to choke...choke to death!
