"Aunt Gu~ What are you doing in such a hurry!" Chu Mingkong stepped forward to support her.

The beautiful woman stroked his cheek, and after looking carefully, she saw that he hadn't lost weight, so she nodded in relief, and she blamed:

"I saw you ready to run before I got there. Can I not be in a hurry?"

Gu Jungui took good care of him when he was a child. When Chu Mingkong first came to Beijing, she wanted to visit the palace many times, but she was also a member of the Cui family. Due to the relationship between the emperor and Chu Mingkong, People in Cui's mansion might not allow her to visit Chu Mingkong, so she had to make food herself, and asked her servant girl to secretly deliver it to him from time to time.

Now that the situation above is a little more relaxed, the Cui Mansion allowed Gu Jun to return to Chu Mingkong.

"I didn't want to run away either, but Aunt Gu, you didn't tell me that the Shangguan family is here! The second lady, Shangguan Rong, is really here?" Chu Mingkong whispered.

"Yes, but they came to them, we saw us, what do you do with Shangguan's house? It's not their house, can you still make things difficult for you?" After exchanging a few pleasantries, Aunt Gu began to examine Chu Mingkong When the woman next to her came, she couldn't help but secretly marveled at the temperament and appearance of this heroic woman: "Mingkong, you too, and you didn't introduce me, is this young girl your friend?"

Young girl... Auntie, Zuo Qiuchi is indeed known as the youngest sword fairy, but she is also a generation of yours, you are a young girl, why do you take advantage of others for no reason.

Chu Mingkong's expression was weird for a while, and he corrected Aunt Gu's words: "Best friend! Best friend! Her name is Zuo Chunchi."

Zuo Qiuchi, who heard his name, was changed to Zuo Chunchi by Chu Mingkong. The woman kept silent and pinched his waist with a smile.

Aunt Gu knew that Chu Mingkong was definitely not as cowardly as the outside rumors said, his forbearance was just a low-key proton, but it was also possible that he was hiding in the golden house in the palace. Seeing such a handsome and heroic girl at this time, naturally I feel like I have a leg.

"Aunt Gu understands~ Best friend, best friend, confidante, right?"

Chu Mingkong doesn't want to explain anymore, so whatever you say is what you say.

He secretly glanced at Zuo Qiuchi, and was relieved to find that Master didn't care about it.

"Don't worry about your confidant, just forget to visit Aunt Gu more often!"

"That's impossible! I still want to eat more dumplings from Aunt Hui. You asked the maid to secretly deliver dumplings to me a few times. I have been thinking about when I can see Aunt Gu and eat again. Aunt Gu thinks too much about food and drink!"

[System Treasure has arrived, 30 points of filial piety (not deteriorated). 】

"I know you are talkative!" Aunt Gu rolled her eyes at him, her charm was charming and alluring.

"When will we eat?" He asked impatiently, he was going to leave after eating, and he would come back when the Shangguan's family was not around.

"What are you in a hurry for, let's go, first go and say hello to Mr. Cui, the old man has seen you praise you when you were young, I have prepared the gift wine for you~" the beautiful woman said from the hand of the maid He took a jug of wine and put it in his hand.

This is determined to let him make a good impression on the old man, so that he will come to meet more in the future.

Chu Mingkong couldn't refuse, so he took the wine and said, "Okay, Aunt Gu, why don't you take my friend for a stroll in Cui's house?"

"Okay, wait a minute and talk carefully. Mr. Cui is not stupid, and will not be prejudiced against you because of your reputation during this period."

--------

The main hall was indeed lively, old man Cui with white hair on his temples was sitting on his seat, chatting with his family and the juniors of Shangguan's family.

Chu Mingkong saw the second Miss Shangguan at a glance. Fortunately, he had adjusted his mentality before coming in, and he did not suffer from embarrassment. He behaved naturally and said a word of congratulations to the old man, and then sent the wine to the old man Cui.

Sure enough, Mr. Cui didn't ask him about his "being dumped" in the past few days, but asked him how he went to Beijing, how he was recovering from his injuries, and so on, so he couldn't help but praise Chu Mingkong's previous reputation.

For Chu Mingkong, the juniors of the Cui family in the hall naturally didn't like him very much. They were born with a golden spoon in their mouths, and the Cui surname in their names alone could give them a pretentious arrogance. Chu Ming Kong's grievances and compromises with Shangguan's family and Zhang's family simply made them disgusted and despised, how could they let the girl's face fling like that without even making a voice of resistance? !

However, the juniors of the Cui family also knew that the old man disliked the kind of self-confident and arrogant people the most. One sentence could cut off the family's investment in their cultivation resources.

It was the juniors from Shangguan's house who had trouble.

Shangguan Liangshan ignored the warning eyes of the second lady of the Changfang, and said in a joking tone:

"I heard that Mr. Cui often warns the younger generations of the Cui family not to drink too much and cause trouble. Why did the young prince even bring wine to celebrate his birthday? Could it be the wine from the wine merchant Zhang's family?"

When mentioning the Zhang family at this time, he just wanted to say that Chu Mingkong didn't have a good face in the Zhang family, and the wine he drank was mixed with water.

Chu Mingkong frowned secretly. This is not acceptable. The wine that Aunt Gu gave you must be flattered at all costs. He replied calmly:

"Extreme things must be reversed, and there is no need to blindly prohibit them. You can control the appropriate amount. Alcoholism is a mistake, but you can also enjoy some wine tasting. When you wake up, you only sit in front of the flowers. When you are drunk, you have to sleep with the flowers. Before the flowers, after the flowers. Day after day, drunk and sober year after year.' The chic enjoyment depends entirely on the individual. Where is Mr. Cui still those people who have no concentration? This wine is ashamed to say, I came empty-handed, and Aunt Gu prepared it for me !"

Shangguan Rong's bright eyes lit up, and she savored the poem that Chu Mingkong just mentioned. It was so free and easy, and also had the meaning of being intoxicated, what a poem!But why does it feel incomplete?

She looked at Chu Mingkong in amazement. When she was with him a few days ago, Chu Mingkong couldn't say a single good word, but now she can utter a poem. The key point is that she hasn't heard of anyone's poem.

Mr. Cui recited the poem mentioned by Chu Mingkong silently in his heart, and asked curiously: "Mingkong, whose poem did you mention just now?"

Chu Mingkong looked at the suddenly silent hall, and asked without confidence: "...Uh, is this poem inappropriate?"

Just now, in order to regain his place, he found a poem with wine as a jingle, and he didn't know the specific meaning of the poem.

Mr. Cui smiled and said, "That's perfect!"

Chu Mingkong didn't want to pretend to be a literati, so he silently thanked the original author of the poem. He explained:

"When I was shopping, I heard someone mention it occasionally. I thought it was quite interesting, so I wrote it down. I didn't expect it to be a good poem. It can cheer up the old man before his birthday. It's not in vain for my stupid brain. Next time As a junior, I should pay more attention to my shopping, and buy a few more poems for Mr. Cui to cheer up, this can be regarded as fulfilling the filial piety respected by the empress!"

[System Treasure has arrived, 10 points of filial piety. 】

Um?Why did this old man give such a small amount? I have 30 filial piety in just a few words to Aunt Gu. It seems that I have to go and lick Aunt Gu!

Chu Mingkong suddenly felt that the burden of this trip was much heavier.

Chapter 9 How did he talk to his elders about this kind of housework? !

Zuo Qiuchi followed Gu Jungui to wander around Cui's mansion. The mansions of these aristocratic families are highly ornamental, and perhaps a corner of an ordinary scenic spot condenses a certain garden craftsman's life experience.

"Aunt Gu, may I call you that?"

"Of course it's okay. The titles of Mrs. and Grandma are all for outsiders. You are so close to Mingkong, so don't meet outsiders. Just call me like him!"

Immediately, Aunt Gu asked curiously about Zuo Qiuchi's acquaintance with Chu Mingkong and her family background like a mother-in-law checking out her daughter-in-law's family background.

It's inconvenient for Zuo Qiuchi to say more about family background, but in the current era, what can be called background is the teacher's family and his own level of cultivation.

Zuo Qiuchi saw that Aunt Gu didn't get too deep into cultivation, so he didn't talk about cultivation, but just reported, "I have been a guest at Baiyanjianzhong for several years, and I'm leaving now."

"Baiyanjianzhong, that's one of the holy places, the girl is really amazing! I heard that there are many fairies in these holy places, but seeing them today, it's true. I didn't expect Mingkong to fall into the current situation. Having a friend like you is willing to associate with him!" The beautiful woman sighed with emotion.

"Where is it, how can I focus on my family background when making friends? And I just went to the Xiling Palace a few years ago and asked for a weapon to practice. I have inherited his kindness, but Aunt Gu and Ming Kong It’s so good, why haven’t I heard of it back then?”

Looking back on the past, the scenes of the four seasons can all give birth to their own melancholy.

Cui's mansion has transplanted many flowers and plants in Xiling, but because of the different climate, they can't produce a lively scene in midsummer, and the bright flowers are all sick.

The beautiful woman with a graceful figure squatted down, her tube top was crowded with her knees, her onion fingers lightly touched the few remaining flowers, and sighed:

"My natal family is in Xiling, and I have a good relationship with the palace. When Ming Kong was a little kid, I often played with him. That was all before I got married. Later, when the marriage contract expired, I married far away in the capital. The Cui family, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye."

She gestured for the size of the little boy back then, which was about the size of her chest.

"When I left, he was only so tall. When he first arrived in the capital, I was shocked. He is so tall and handsome. If it weren't for the traces of his facial features, I wouldn't have recognized him. It's a pity. I could only watch secretly at that time, and I didn't show up to see him."

The family represented by Chu Mingkong was the most feared by the emperor, and after the emperor showed some dissatisfaction, the Cui family rashly approached him.

So Gu Jungui didn't really meet this nephew until now. Of course, sometimes when festivals come and there are celebrations in the city, we can still see them, but they don't dare to pretend to know each other. They just pass by, so as not to fall into trouble. tongue.

"That can't be helped. Mingkong won't care. Aunt Gu's husband...isn't at the house?" Zuo Qiuchi was curious. She followed Aunt Gu to her small courtyard, but the courtyard Not many traces of a man's life.

Could it be that he went to some sect to practice Taoism, and he broke the world of mortals and ran away?But it's not like, the Cui Mansion has invested resources in many sects, so it's not a problem to invite some teachers to come back and guide them.

Aunt Gu lowered her head and said with a wry smile: "It's ashamed to say that when the Cui family in the capital city came to Xiling to find me, they invited an expert to tell me that I had a husband, and then they made a marriage contract to the eldest son of the Cui family. At that time, there was a demon sect riot near the capital city that had been dark for a long time, and sacrificed a terrible evil thing. Half of the outer city was destroyed. My husband and the teacher went to crusade, but unfortunately he was not very lucky... ..."

Zuo Qiuchi had heard about that incident, the darkness under the lights in a place like the capital was outrageous, but at that time, the Demon Sect dug out an altar to practice, and the Sect Master thought he had obtained the treasure, so he used the altar to practice. As a result, he cultivated himself into a powerful evil creature.

Many sect elders who rushed over to support them all died. It is normal for Cui's parents to die.

But to say that Aunt Gu is quite unfortunate, Zuo Qiuchi has observed that her maid is a young girl. Generally speaking, this kind of personal maid follows the master to death, and the master is married as a housemate. The girl was married as a dowry.But after getting along for a long time, even a maid will regard her as her relative.

And her current maid is so young, it must have been changed once, the previous maid may have gone away due to some accident.

"Sorry, I was talking too much and asked something that shouldn't be asked." Zuo Qiuchi apologized.

"It's okay, it's been many years, and I'm fine now~ The second and third bedrooms are getting tired of getting along with each other, and they're starting to have conflicts. Every day is like going to a theater, so I don't have that kind of worry anymore! "

The beautiful woman stood up, moved her shoulders slightly, pulled Zuo Qiuchi and said:

"Let's go, let's go to Mingkong, it's almost time for dinner, but I'd like to ask the servants first, how is the situation in the main hall, if that kid is stupid, I have to think of a good word to help him. "

------------

Chu Mingkong worked hard in the main hall to collect filial piety, but he didn't know if the old man had a heart of stone. Except for the wave of him stealing poems, he never gave filial piety. This shows that he never praised Chu Mingkong at all. Take the words to heart.

After several attempts, Chu Mingkong gave up. It was purely thankless. In the future, it would be better to stare at the female elders and lick them fiercely. The men are too stingy, and even the concubine of the Zhang family was able to make water flow. Send him filial piety.

After finding an excuse to leave the main hall, Chu Mingkong soon ran into Aunt Gu who was looking for him.

"Aunt Gu, I'm still going to find you guys, have you finished shopping with Xiao Zuo?"

little left?

Zuo Qiuchi looked at him with a smile and said nothing, and at an angle that Gu Jungui couldn't see, he squeezed his fist at Chu Mingkong, expressing that he would look good on you when he went back.

"I haven't finished my shopping. Didn't I hear that you made a wine poem in front of the old man? Yoyo~ When did you learn this literary talent? I used to want to touch weapons. I found a good book for you and took it secretly. Go wipe your nose!"

"Hi!" Chu Mingkong waved his hands, resolutely refusing to receive this fame, "I heard from the street that I can't compose poems, but I can copy them. That kid slandered Aunt Gu for the wine you gave me, how could I let Aunt Gu suffer this kind of grievance, I was so anxious that I remembered it!"

[System Treasure has arrived, 20 points of filial piety (not deteriorated). 】

have a look!have a look!What do I say, Aunt Gu still loves him, and she will be filial if she just says something nice!But what exactly is this "undeteriorated" reminder?

Aunt Gu didn't believe that this was just a casual hearing, but she also didn't believe that he did it. She guessed that most of it was bought with money:

"I heard it on the street. The poem you just said casually, if it is spread out, it must be eulogized in the academy. How can there be an expert in the market to let you listen to it so casually? Besides, it is a poem from the market. It has long been Spread the word!"

"The master is among the folks. Think about the Juque Sword Immortal who was once in the limelight. Didn't she become famous all at once? There was no such thing as a big deed before."

When Zuo Qiuchi was bubbling around in the past, she used a pseudonym, with the single character "Autumn". Few people knew that her real name was Zuo Qiuchi.In fact, even if Chu Mingkong told Aunt Gu her real name, it would be fine.

Gu Auntie thought about it, it made sense, probably because he bought poems and met an expert, but what he is most afraid of now is that his reputation will improve again, so it is absolutely impossible to use it to flatter his literary talents and to bombard the little girl More likely.

The charming young woman wanted to hear what kind of poems he had bought to deceive girls, so she said, "Then you wander around every day, have you heard any poems praising girls?"

Chu Mingkong didn't want to stay on this issue of literary accomplishment for a long time, mainly because he really couldn't handle it, so he recalled a poignant poem to end the topic:

"No way, these things are kept by the masters to deceive the little girls. How can they be heard casually? The girl's poems that can be heard in the market are not very serious, such as "红绡绡" Thin ice and smooth skin, snow greasy and crispy fragrance, laughing Tan Lang: Tonight the gauze cupboard is cool with pillows, or "the fairies are all flesh and blood, and the heart is intoxicated with Biluoyin. The deep love is not only a Taoyuan meeting, but also beautiful willow leaves knit the brows.'."

Seeing Aunt Gu's face was reddish, so bright that it was too bright, Chu Mingkong hurriedly added righteously: "Although I don't know what it means, I know it's not a good poem when I hear it, and most of the poems in the market are It's this kind of hooligan poetry, I despise it!"

What do these poems mean, even if you can't understand them accurately, you can hear how explicit the description is, and there is also a hint of love between men and women.

Aunt Gu spat at him, and said angrily, "You've been wandering around the market all day long, what have you been listening to, if you are listened to by another pedantic guy, be careful with your skin, don't do it for others. It’s a poem, is it clear?”

"It's clear~ I can't say these poems casually, but I also admire these poetic people. They really describe the beauty of women well. If I have this ability, I will definitely write a few poems to praise Aunt Gu and Xiao. ...Miss Zuo."
