My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

On November 8, Gu Li woke up on time as usual, but she yawned and when she tried to get up, she felt a familiar weight on her waist. She turned around and found that her husband Chang Lang was still asleep.

She felt a little strange at this time, so she shook Chang An gently and said softly: "Chang Lang, it's time to get up and go to the Imperial College."

Chang An hummed twice, but did not wake up. Instead, he moved closer to Gu Li. Gu Li felt the breath on her neck and tilted her head slightly - this was the first time she saw Chang An sleeping. She looked at Chang An who was sleeping soundly, reached out her hand and touched his forehead, and was relieved after confirming that he did not have a fever.

She just looked at Chang An sleeping beside her, and gave up the idea of ​​waking him up. At worst, she could send someone to ask for leave from the Imperial College. Thinking of this, she stretched out her fingers and gently combed his messy hair, but she never thought that Chang An would slowly open his eyes at this time.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Li who was also looking at him, and their eyes met.

"Good morning, Mother Gu." Chang An said.

"Good morning to you too, Chang Lang."

After greeting each other, they both got up. Gu Li changed his own clothes first, then took Chang An's clothes from the hanger and helped him put them on.

Then Chang An asked Huaiqin and Zhen'er to come in with a basin. After they washed up together, Chang An went outside to test the temperature. He felt that it was a little cold outside, so he went back to the house and said to Gu Li:

"Mrs. Gu, please put on an extra shawl. It's a bit cold outside."

Gu Li nodded obediently, and while looking for a shawl in the closet, he asked, "Doesn't Chang Lang have to go to the Imperial College today?"

"Today is the beginning of winter, and the Imperial College is closed for holiday." Chang An replied.

Today is indeed the beginning of winter, and Xuezheng told them yesterday, so Chang An specially slept a little longer today. Gu Li nodded, and after putting on her waistcoat, Chang An took her outside.

Chang An first took her to the kitchen, and ordered the servants to boil the medicine that Gu Li was going to drink. Then he checked the sugar jar outside, and ordered the servants to move the sugar jar to the kitchen. After watching them finish, he took Gu Li back to the room with peace of mind.

As usual, Gu Li sat in Chang An's arms, reading the collection of poems Chang An wrote for her, while Chang An was studying the collection of essays Song Jing gave him.

"Mother Gu, where do you want to go for a walk later?" Chang An suddenly asked. In the past month after their marriage, he would take Gu Li out for a walk every time he had a day off or a holiday, so he didn't want to make an exception today.

"I don't know, let's just walk around." Gu Li thought for a while and said.

Chang An put down the collection of essays in his hand, thought for a moment, and suggested: "Why don't we go to the West Market and let the doctor check your illness. We can also buy some medicine. The medicine at home is almost gone."

"I'll listen to Chang Lang." Gu Li raised his head, smiled at Chang An and said.

......

After lunch, after watching Gu Li finish drinking the medicine, Chang An asked Huai Qin and Zhen Er to find a carriage and prepare to go out. Then, Chang An took Gu Li back to the house, checked her clothes again, and after making sure she would not catch a cold, he took a sword from the sword rack, took her outside, and got on the carriage.

After arriving at the clinic in the West Market, the clinic's pharmacist saw Chang An and Gu Li walk in, so he asked them to wait for a while and went to find Doctor Zhang.

Soon, the medicine boy brought Chang An and Gu Li to the compartment. After Doctor Zhang took a look at the two of them, he stretched out his hand and motioned Gu Li to sit down, and then he took Gu Li's pulse.

After a while, Doctor Zhang withdrew his hand. Chang An seemed more anxious than Gu Li and asked directly, "Doctor Zhang, how is my mother Gu's illness?"

Doctor Zhang couldn't help but smile when he saw Chang An's expression. He stroked his beard and replied, "Don't worry, Chang Langjun. Madam Gu's condition has not worsened. Instead, it is slowly getting better. Her pulse is better than last month."

"So how long will it take to fully recover?" Gu Li asked.

"The current situation will not heal in a short period of time. If it recovers quickly, it will probably take one to two years," said Doctor Zhang.

"Will it take another one or two years..." Gu Li looked a little disappointed at this time.

Before Chang An could open his mouth to comfort her, Doctor Zhang said with a smile: "Madam Gu, I said it would take one or two years to recover. But as for the matter of offspring, it shouldn't take long."

Gu Li and Chang An couldn't help but blush after hearing what Doctor Zhang said.

"Thank you, Doctor Zhang."

After Gu Li finished asking about the illness, he stood up, bowed slightly to Doctor Zhang, and took Chang An to the front hall to get medicine. In addition to the medicine for lung disease, Chang An also asked the pharmacist to get some medicine for conditioning his body, and then paid and left.

Chang An and Gu Li came to the outside of the clinic. As they walked, he asked, "Do you want to buy something to take back?"

"It probably won't be necessary." Gu Li thought for a moment and said, "Chang Lang can give me everything I want, so why would I need to buy one?"

"Little flatterer..."

As they talked, they returned to the West Market Gate. Because Chang An and Gu Li came out on their own, they got on the carriage and planned to let the coachman drive back to Chang's house. But just as Chang An was about to tell the coachman to drive the horse back to the house, he suddenly heard a shout:

"Someone is stealing horses! Please help stop him!"

Chang An looked at Gu Li, and Gu Li had obviously heard it as well, so Chang An leaned out of the carriage and saw two people on horseback in the direction where the sound came from, one running away and the other chasing.

"Someone is stealing a horse! Please help stop him!" the person chasing behind shouted.

At this time, the fleeing man was not far from Chang An's carriage, so Chang An stepped out of the carriage and relaxed his shoulders. Seeing that the horse thief was about to come to him, Chang An jumped up and kicked the horse thief off the horse. He then sat on the horse, pulled the reins, and stopped the horse with a "whoosh".

The man who had just been kicked off his horse by Chang An was lying on the ground groaning. Chang An got off his horse and immediately lifted up the horse thief, forcing him to stand. At this time, the man who was chasing behind also came up and got off his horse. Seeing Chang An holding the horse with one hand and the horse thief's neck with the other, he raised his hand to salute and said:

"Thank you for your help, brother."

"It's just a piece of cake." Chang An released the horse thief, made him lie back on the ground, and bowed.

"My name is Gao Shi." After the man said this, Chang An was stunned for a moment.

Gao Shi! Gao Dafu! Gao thirty-five! Chang An repeatedly looked at the man in front of him in his heart, and soon came to his senses and replied: "My name is Chang An, and my name is Yonghe."

At this time, Gu Li also got off the carriage, and Chang An introduced her, "This is my wife, Gu Li."

Gao Shi also raised his hand and bowed to Gu Li: "Greetings, Madam Gu."

"Meet Mr. Gao."

Chang An looked at the man in front of him who seemed to be younger than himself. He was dressed in cloth, but he was neat and tidy. Then he asked, "Brother Gao, I wonder what to do with this horse. Is it the horse you lost?"

"No, this is a lady's horse." After saying that, Gao Shi looked behind him and saw a woman running towards them.

"My horse!" The woman saw Chang An leading her horse and shouted in surprise. Then she ran over and took the reins of the horse, thanking Chang An and Gao Shi repeatedly.

After the woman left, Chang An turned his attention back to Gao Shi and asked, "Where are you going, Brother Gao?"

"Brother Chang, I don't have anywhere I want to go. I just plan to go back to the house where I'm staying temporarily." Gao Shi replied.

"What happened to this horse just now?" Chang An asked.

"Oh, it's like this. I was just in Yanshoufang, trying to submit my application to an official, but unfortunately, he didn't take my place. Just as I was about to leave, I heard someone shouting that his horse had been stolen, so I chased after him." Gao Shi replied. "If Brother Wuchang hadn't taken action just now, I'm afraid the horse would have been lost."

"Nothing, nothing." Chang An waved his hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Just now I heard from Brother Gao that you are working on the investment bank rolls?"

"Exactly."

Chang An clapped his hands at this time and said, "My father is a doctor of the Imperial College, and he is a fifth-rank official. I can introduce him to Brother Gao."

Gao Shi's face lit up with joy, and he asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course there won't be a holiday." Chang An patted his chest and assured. Today is the beginning of winter, not only the Imperial College is on holiday, but also the officials are on holiday.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Chang." Gao Shi raised his hand again and saluted Chang An. "Whether my application is accepted or not, I will never forget your kindness in recommending me today."

"That's not necessary," Chang An walked back to the carriage, first helped Gu Li onto the carriage, then got on himself, and said to Gao Shi, "Brother Gao, you have to follow."

After getting on the carriage, Chang An asked the driver to drive home directly, while Gao Shi rode a horse and followed behind the carriage.

Back at the gate of Chang's house, Chang An led Gu Li off the carriage and walked directly in. Gao Shi also got off the horse at this time, but did not go in, just stood at the door holding the horse.

Chang An noticed that Gao Shi did not follow him in, so he turned around and saw him standing at the door, and asked, "Why didn't Brother Gao come in?"

"I'll just wait here." Gao Shi said.

"Brother Gao, please come in. The concierge won't stop you," Chang An said with a smile, "We don't have the rule of letting relatives and friends wait outside the door in the Chang Mansion."

Hearing this, Gao Shi had no choice but to follow in.

Chang An also stopped a servant at this time and asked, "Is my father in the courtyard?"

The servant replied yes, and Chang An said, "Take us there."

Afterwards, Chang An and Gu Li brought Gao Shi to Chang Wenmeng's yard. At this time, Chang Wenmeng was sitting in the pavilion reading a book. When he noticed someone coming in, he raised his head.

"Yonghe, Li'er, why are you here?" He said with a smile, and then saw Gao Shi walking behind them, and asked, "Who is this?"

"Father, this man is called Gao Shi." Chang An and Gu Li walked into the pavilion and introduced him. At the same time, Gao Shi also came forward and bowed to Chang Wenmeng. "I would like to introduce him to you. I wonder if you can take a look at Brother Gao's resume."

Chang Wenmeng looked at Gao Shi, and Gao Shi hurriedly took out his own manuscript and held it in front of Chang Wenmeng.

Chang Wenmeng took the paper, opened it and looked at it, then quickly closed it and said, "I'll take this paper. You can try to take the imperial examination next year."

"I still believe in my son's judgment."

"Thank you, Dr. Chang."

"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank Yonghe." Chang Wenmeng said, "I have also heard of Mr. Gao Kan. You should be his descendant, right?"

"Yes, he is my grandfather."

Chang Wenmeng nodded and said, "I can only explain it to you at that time, and the rest depends on your luck."

"Yes." Gao Shi bowed here.
