After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home

"Master, we have been waiting for so long, when will that person arrive?" A member of the family stood aside and asked boredly.

Zhang Xu held the cup in one hand and waved a folding fan painted with light ink in the other. He closed his eyes and replied leisurely: "Young man, don't be anxious. What should come will naturally come. The time and place are all determined by God." , can’t be forced.”

Looking at his young master with a calm face, the servant curled his lips helplessly. Ever since he was admitted as a scholar, the young master has to be so articulate when speaking, which makes people listen to him in confusion.

But there was no way, he was just a little servant, he didn't dare to do the following, so he could only continue to wait patiently.

I don’t know how long they waited. From the sky getting dark to the sun being so bright that it dazzled my eyes, the master and servant finally waited for an ox cart to arrive. The man was still wearing the brocade-white "Jingyang Academy" uniform. He remembered his young master. There are also several pieces.

"Hey, Master, Master, is it him we are waiting for? Open your eyes and take a look."

At the urging of his servant, Zhang Xu opened his eyes and looked at Gu Xingmo, who was sitting in a bullock cart, surrounded by a group of women chatting, and couldn't help laughing.

He didn't know what he was laughing at. It might be because the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, or maybe it was because Gu Xingmo's expression was indifferent at this time, but he was still gentle and well-behaved. It was completely different from his usual stern face and inaccessible temperament like an iceberg. .

"Here they come, let's go, waiter, let's go down." After saying that, Zhang Xu took the brunt and hurried down the stairs.

"Master, I am obviously the mistress! Ah, Master, wait for me." The second brother is his twin brother, wuwu. I didn't expect that after so many years, the young master still doesn't understand the difference between the second and third mistresses. It's really sad.

Zhang Xu, who didn't realize at all that he had severely hurt his servant's fragile heart, was very happy at the moment.

He walked up to Gu Xingmo, bowed, and said teasingly: "Brother Xingmo, long time no see. Zijue and I have prepared a banquet at Banxianju, and I came here to invite you to come and have a chat."

He is personable and polite, his manners are elegant, and his scholarly temperament is overflowing. I would like to praise him for being such a handsome man.

Gu Xingmo, who had just finished saying goodbye to all the villagers, was not confused by Zhang Xu's appearance. The three of them lived in the same house. He could see a lot of Zhang Xu's bad living habits, but he was too lazy to mention or expose them. That’s all.

Gu Xingmo opened the bamboo basket on the side and asked, "Does your restaurant owner collect pheasants?"

"Take it, recycle the wild chickens at a high price, take as much as you want!" Seeing that Gu Xingmo finally used Zhang Xu once, he had to agree.

Uh, wild chickens?

Hearing this answer, the corner of Gu Xingmo's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and then he replied helplessly: "There are no chickens, there are only two pheasants. My fiancée went into the mountains to catch them. You can just pay them according to the market price. I will I trust you will not lie about the market price."

"Fiancée! Gu Xingmo, you just went home to recuperate for a few days, how come you have an extra fiancée! How old is your fiancée? What does she look like? I'm not telling you, but you haven't heard much about catching a son-in-law under the banner? Wait until the future You are at the top of the list. You can't choose any famous and talented girl, so why should you only choose such a country woman? You might as well have chosen my sister. At least she really likes you, can read, draw, and can do everything..."

Zhang Xu kept saying one sentence after another, which made Gu Xingmo's brain hurt, and he sternly rebuked: "Shut up, is she okay? I know it in my heart. You haven't seen her, so don't jump to conclusions easily."

"Okay, okay, that's it. It seems that you will be a strict henwife in the future. You really have no future."

After saying that, he kicked the buttocks of the servant on the side and ordered: "Servant, hurry up and put the bamboo basket that we are responsible for keeping a strict wife on your back, take it to the restaurant, and ask the shopkeeper to estimate the price."

Okay, let the waiter be the waiter, he won't force it, his young master is too stupid to study, he shouldn't have expectations.

After giving the instructions, Zhang Xu turned around and was about to leave. Gu Xingmo tugged on Zhang Xu's sleeve and said softly: "Did you see that person behind you? Find someone to follow him."

"Why, has he offended you?"

"Ah."

"Okay, okay, okay, seeing as you have been a classmate for so long, I am so angry for you." His dark eyes rolled, and Gu Xingmo knew that he was probably coming up with some trickier idea.

He continued to warn him uneasily: "Don't let him die."

"Of course, it's just a small lesson to him. Don't worry, I'll do the work."

After saying that, he patted Gu Xingmo's shoulder lightly and said with a smile: "Come, follow me to the restaurant. Zijue is still waiting for you. This is a rare opportunity for him to be the host. You must go."

Watching the two of them walking away, Gu Tiezhu couldn't recover for a long time, until the uncle who was driving the car urged him: "Gu San's family, what are you doing standing there? Could it be that this pile of things is not for sale? If you go late, maybe others have collected it. That's really bad Just don’t put a price on it.”

After Gu Tiezhu came to his senses, he took the chickens and a bamboo basket of wild goods and hurried to the restaurant.

By coincidence, he and Gu Xingmo were traveling on the same road. Although he was anxious, he didn't want them to see him in such a mess, so he followed them leisurely.

Until he saw the two of them entering the "semi-idle" restaurant, Gu Tiezhu stood at the door and waited for a while to make sure he wouldn't bump into them again. This time he gritted his teeth and walked in, feeling very embarrassed.

This sense of shame was so strong that he could never hold his head up in front of Gu Xingmo. He resented God countless times. Why not give him a head that is good at reading, but give it to Gu Xingmo! It's a bit too biased.

As soon as he walked in, the waiter scolded him, "Why are you here so late this time? Can you afford to delay the business in the restaurant?"

Look, you are just a waiter, you dare to scold him, and look down on him, but they are just commoners, who can be more noble than others? Can't you speak well?

Although he thought so in his heart, Gu Tiezhu did not dare to say anything more and just kept apologizing.

The waiter waved his hand, indicating that he should put down his things quickly, and then said: "Today, the head of the desk is hosting a banquet for friends. The shopkeeper is a little busy at the moment. Please wait here for now, and I will come over to pay you later."

Gu Tiezhu responded quickly, but he was extremely disdainful in his heart.

There were many guests at the "Half-idle House". Gu Tiezhu stood at the door and was afraid that he would bump into the noble man. The waiter asked him to stand inside while he was busy serving tea and water to the guests.

No one paid attention to him, and he didn't know when he would have to wait until he could take the money and leave. The more Gu Tiezhu thought about it, the angrier he became. He kicked the counter hard, and the thick wood hurt his toes. He jumped up on one foot, causing a crowd nearby. The table guests roared with laughter.

Gu Tiezhu's face turned red, but he didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to stand inside again.

Suddenly, he found that he had stepped on something hard under his feet. He raised his feet and saw that it was an emerald ring. It was green and had a layer of gold on it. It should be worth a lot of money.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Gu Tiezhu quickly bent down to pick up the thing and held it tightly in his hand.

It was the first time in his life that he saw such a precious thing. His heart was beating very fast. He didn't dare to appear in the crowd. It would be too conspicuous. He subconsciously took a few steps back, but accidentally bumped into the decoration behind him. , with a "crash" sound, the porcelain fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, attracting the attention of everyone present.
