men and women

Shen Heli discussed with Gu Xinyue, should we send him back first?Gu Xinyue looked at him, "But what happened?"

"No." Shen Heli said, "Originally, I wanted to take you to Beijing and Hong Kong to have a look, and then turn back to the Grand Canal to enter Changjiang, go to some docks along the way, and also enter Zhongyuan Prefecture, and visit uncle on the way. Who Anticipating that Chen Wei would suddenly fight with Liu Yiyan, that part of the route would not be available right now, so I thought I would take the sea route to Guangzhou City in Linhai Prefecture, and then go inland along the Huan River."

"It's not convenient for me to be here?" Gu Xinyue asked.

"Of course not." Shen Heli shook his head and said, "It's just that according to my original route, more than half of the voyage is on my own ship, which can make you stay more comfortable. This sea route is all on other people's ships. You are not used to it."

"Since you've come out, you won't turn around carelessly." Gu Xinyue said, "Just go according to your own arrangement, I'm not not used to it. If it's inconvenient for me, just say it straight, I'll go back on my own after wandering around for a while Kyoto will do."

"That's okay, my wife and I went out together, so we should go back together." Shen Heli said. "Since my wife doesn't mind the hard work, I will enjoy the scenery along the way with my husband. I just hope that my wife will not be too fascinated by the world of flowers and flowers, and will not want to come back with me in the future." Shen Heli joked.

Gu Xinyue didn't respond to his joke, seeing that the matter had been settled, "I want to go out and have a look."

"No, you don't need to accompany me, just find a car and Gu Qi will drive."

"It's not that I dislike you. You always have business to do. Don't you really just come out to play?"

"Why, can't I go out alone?" Gu Xinyue asked, Shen Heli always messed with him about a simple matter, which made him a little unhappy, "Master Shen, can I not go out without your company?"

"Of course." Seeing that Gu Xinyue was really displeased, Shen Heli stopped talking. "If you want to go out for a walk, just go for a walk, and come back to have dinner with me at night? I have made appointments with the bosses of several commercial firms."

"I won't go if you have an appointment with someone else." Gu Xinyue said, she was disappointed when she saw Shen He's face, "I can accompany you only when you are alone."

"Then I'll go find a place. We'll go out to eat tomorrow, just the two of us." Shen Heli immediately agreed.After speaking, I went out to call a car.

Gu Qi drove in the front, Shi Qing also sat in front, Gu Xinyue and Yin Zhu sat in the back.Because Gu Xinyue said that he was just strolling around in Jinggang City, Gu Qi drove very slowly. Although he asked the people in the hotel about the terrain of Beijing and Hong Kong the day before, it was obvious that there were still many uncertainties in the actual driving, and Shi Qing said from time to time. Turn from here, go straight to the front and so on.

While showing the way, Shi Qing also wanted to introduce Gu Xinyue as a tour guide.

This is the French embassy in Gaul.

This is the British Concession.

This is the Russian Concession.

……

Gu Xinyue looked at the exotic buildings passing by the car window, "How many places in Beijing and Hong Kong belong to the Hua people?"

"The place is not small, but please forgive me, young master, we can't take risks there." Shi Qing said calmly.

"Nowadays, Hua people are not safe in Hua people's territory. They have to live in the concession to be safe." Gu Xinyue said with emotion. "If grandpa knows the current situation, he doesn't know how he should feel."

Shi Qing and Yinzhu didn't reply, Gu Qi looked at them distractedly, and then he started talking, "The old man may not know, after all, these concessions appeared 20 years ago, some armistice contracts were signed, and the old man was also present .”

There was silence in the car.Yinzhu looked at Gu Xinyue carefully, Shi Qing glanced at Gu Qi like a fool, Gu Qi immediately panicked, "I, did I say something wrong?"

"Drive well." Seeing that he was a little dazed, Gu Xinyue comforted him and said, "You are right."

Gu Xinyue looked out the window, "Things have changed."

Because of this conversation, the atmosphere in the car afterwards was weird, and Shi Qing didn't take the initiative to explain, so Gu Xinyue watched quietly, and if he saw someone who was interested, Shi Qing would say a few words, originally planned to eat outside, In the end it was nothing.Back at the hotel, Gu Xinyue changed clothes and sat on the sofa looking out the window in a daze.

Shen Heli came back drunk and saw Gu Xinyue there, "You came back so early? Didn't you go to see the night view of Beijing and Hong Kong?"

Gu Xinyue tilted her head and looked at him, "Come and chat with me for a while."

"Okay." Shen Heli came over with a smile on his face.

"You go take a shower first." Gu Xinyue said.

"Of order, ma'am." Shen Heli said with a nondescript salute.

After Shen Heli took a bath, he became much more energetic. He sat on the sofa opposite Gu Xinyue, and Gu Xinyue pushed him a cup of tea, and some fruit sprinkled with sugar and cut into flower shapes.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Shen Heli asked.

Gu Xinyue looked at him with one hand on his cheek, "What do you think of my grandpa?"

"Gu Chengzhao?" Shen Heli said subconsciously, and immediately changed his words when he saw Gu Xinyue's face, "Old man, of course he is a good man, capable minister, and loyal minister. Don't others say he is like this?" Shen Heli gave a thumbs up.

Gu Xinyue raised her eyebrows, "It doesn't matter if you tell me the truth."

"This is the truth." Shen Heli said very sincerely, "He is not greedy, he is not domineering, he does not collude with foreigners, he does not betray the country, and he dies for the country. It is because he left a little earlier, leaving you to suffer .”

"Slick tongue." Gu Xinyue smiled very lightly. "It seems that you can't hear a word of truth from your mouth."

Shen Heli lowered his head and smiled, "It doesn't matter what other people think about the old man, what matters is what the wife thinks about the old man, don't tell me you won't respect him if others say that the old man is bad, if you want everyone to say that the old man is like you Think the same, isn’t it difficult for the strong.”

Gu Xinyue turned his gaze to the distant sea again, perhaps because he often looks at it, the same shady scene, Gu Xinyue felt that he could see clearly those were the sky, and those were the churning waves, "I can't remember exactly what Grandpa looks like, The last few years of his life were gloomy, endless work, and sighs, even if he saw me, his forced smile couldn't last long."

He didn't know why he said this to Shen Heli, but he just wanted to say it now.

"Grandpa decided to call me to explain his funeral before he decided to die. At that time, I was still very ignorant, and I was not raised as a fetus. Grandpa touched my head and said to let me grow up quickly so that I could provoke the century-old glory of the Gu family. Because the Quartet Contract, he is doomed to be infamous forever, but he hopes that I can have new achievements to cover his shame."

"I didn't understand it when I was young. When I grew up, I read a lot of books and found a lot of newspapers at that time. I started to think, and I began to recall every expression and movement of my grandfather at that time. The four-party contract was already the best deal under the mediation at the time. The ending, but the traitor who said every word is like a needle in my eye."

"Didn't I never think about it? Didn't the last dynasty really have no power to fight at the time? Let alone being slaughtered, let alone to prevent people from dying, the robber's bayonet came to the door. Is this the kind of security that the people need?"

"Grandpa doesn't know what kind of infamy he will get if he signs such a contract? Why does he still want to sign it? It's a pity that grandpa can't give me an answer, and no one can give me an answer."

Shen Heli didn't know if he needed comfort, so he patted his hand wordlessly.

Gu Xinyue retracted her gaze and landed on the back of Shen Heli's hand, "If I say, even if I am a man and woman, the century-old glory of the Gu family will continue behind me in the future, do you believe it?"

"I believe it." Shen Heli said without the slightest hesitation. "I believe that you can get what you want, and the identity of a man and woman will not be your burden. And I will not be your burden."
