After dressing as a widow

Lin Zhen covered the boss's wife's mouth, and at the same time looked at Gu Lin who was standing beside her, and found that the expression on Gu Lin's face did not change, obviously he was relieved that he didn't hear what the boss's wife said.

The proprietress immediately understood and nodded: "I know, I know, the child is saying these things are not good, and I will chat with you someday when the child is not around."

"..." No, I don't want to talk to you about this, Lin Zhenxin said.

Pointing to the four children behind him, he said to the proprietress, "Sister Hong, give them a suit of clothes. If the size is not suitable, ask the embroiderer in your shop to change it. I will hurry to wear it tomorrow."

There was business to do, the proprietress changed her appearance just now, straightened up and scanned Gu Lin, Huang Yuwen, Wang Qin and Chen Xing, and instantly estimated their sizes.

He quickly took out a dozen pieces of clothes from the store and put them on the counter: "All the robes in my store that match their sizes are here, take a look."

The robes are made of good materials, which are different from cotton and linen at first glance. The colors are more colorful and the workmanship is also very fine.

Lin Zhen picked up a crab blue robe, pulled Gu Lin who was closest to him, and compared him to him.

Gu Lin is now about ten centimeters taller than him, with broad shoulders and thin waist, and two legs that are too long. Although his skin is not as good as his, it is also a kind of white in the crowd. It makes people feel bright.

The proprietress said: "This robe is made of Luo. It's perfect for this season. It's neither cold nor hot. With a thousand-year-old silk sash, it will definitely make our Gu boy look very good."

The literati in this dynasty used belts, but most of them used thin silk ribbons, which hung down to the ankles and matched with the wide sleeves.

But this kind of attire is challenging, the short ones will become shorter, and the tall ones will be full of freehand and romantic.

With Gu Lin's figure, she can wear everything.

Not only this crab blue one, but also Qingshan blue, brown, blue and white, black, and white.

The robes of Wang Qin, Huang Yuwen, and Chen Xing were similar in size and in these colors.

Wang Qin's clothes are always so lively and lively. At first sight, he fell in love with a robe that looked like dark red, and he liked it when he compared it to his body.

He leaned over to Lin Zhen's side: "Gu Lin looks good in anything, Uncle Lin, look at me, how about it?"

He unfolded his dark red robe, like a peacock, and let Lin Zhen take a look at himself.

Gu Lin glanced at him with dark eyes. In fact, with his martial arts ears, he could hear clearly what the proprietress of the tailor shop and Uncle Lin said just now, but he just didn't understand.

What is the man's job?

He wanted to make it clear that he couldn't make Uncle Lin feel that he was not good enough.

Lin Zhen felt that it would be impossible to try this way, so he simply asked them to take turns to change into the robes, and let them show himself and the proprietress when they came out, let alone, it was very intuitive.

Wang Qin's dark red gown that he likes over there is not as good-looking as the light one. Huang Yuwen is still suitable for him. He often wears yellow, but the yellow color of this dress is more special, slightly whitish, and light. Without losing his poise, Huang Yuwen decided on this one on the spot.

The one Chen Xing chose was brown, with a silk sash matched with white.

When it came to Gu Lin, Lin Zhen had a difficult time. He felt that all the clothes looked good on him, and they were all similar, so it was difficult to choose.

In the end, Gu Lin tried to wrap everything up, and then picked out matching silk ribbons and headbands.

All kinds of things, a big bag.

The proprietress fiddled with the abacus with her white fingers, counted and counted, and put the calculated beads in front of Lin Zhen: "It's 53 taels in total. If you buy so much, the four coins will be free."

The mid-range clothes are not cheap, and they are tailor-made clothes made by Xiu Niang. The unit price is a few taels of silver, let alone Lin Zhen bought so much for Gu Lin.

Lin Zhen took out a silver bill of 50 taels from his purse, and put a piece of silver of three taels on it: "Thank you, sister Hong, the children and I will go first."

The proprietress put away the banknotes and money: "Walk slowly, come back next time."

Stepping out of the clothing store, Lin Zhen thought about the appearance of Gu Lin coming out of the cubicle after changing clothes, and turned his head to look at Gu Lin.

Tomorrow we have to go to the Lu Ming Banquet, Huang Yuwen and Chen Xing went back to his home early, planning to go to bed early to recharge our spirits.

Wang Qin, who didn't need to go to the Lu Ming Banquet, consciously didn't bother them, and went to other places with his servants.

When Lin Zhen and Gu Lin went home, Gu Lin washed the clothes he bought and dried them on the bamboo poles in the yard.

Luo is frivolous, and now there is the sun, and the moisture will be dried up in a short while, and it can be put into the closet after dark.

Lin Zhen, who bought several clothes for him, didn't buy any. He always liked to wear short brown clothes, mostly in plain colors such as black, white and gray, and there were so many at home, it was a waste to buy them.

Suddenly, when Lin Zhen was thinking about something, Gu Lin, who had finished washing his clothes, walked up to him and asked, "Uncle Lin, what is a man's job that Aunt Hong told you just now?"

"Cough cough cough cough!!!" Lin Zhen almost choked himself to death with a mouthful of saliva.

He thought Gu Lin didn't hear it, but he didn't expect to hear it so clearly.

His head was a little dizzy, "Then, what, Gu Lin, you are still a child, you know."

"It's not the time to know this, but you'll understand when you grow up."

Gu Lin frowned slightly: "I'm 15 years old."

Lin Zhen looked at him, 15 years old is too old, 15 years old and just graduated from junior high school, what are you awesome!

But when he thought that Gu Lin was already a juren and became a reserve of Dayu's imperial court officials, he silently scratched out the words "graduated from junior high school" in his mind.

He settled his thoughts and said: "15 years old, it's still a little young, just two years older."

"Okay, you go to the kitchen to see what other dishes are there, cook the rice, and I'll do the cooking."

I don't know what to do, just let Gu Lin do things!

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Lin heard what he ordered her, she immediately stood up and walked to the kitchen, and soon there was the sound of cooking in the kitchen.

call.

Lin Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that apart from teaching Gu Lin the principles of life, he seemed to have forgotten one very important thing. He had never instilled physiological knowledge in Gu Lin.

And when he thought about it, he also remembered what Wang Qin once said in front of him, in an era when this boy had to learn to be independent at the age of eight or nine, began to discuss marriage and marry a wife at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and became a father at the age of sixteen or seventeen. , Wang Qin invited Gu Lin to drink several times but Gu Lin refused.

The reason is that he told him that drinking will not grow taller and become a dwarf.

"..."

"Crack." Lin Zhen held his forehead with his palm. He remembered that when he said this to Gu Lin, Gu Lin was only nine years old. At that time, Gu Lin was already a child student, and he was still No.1 in the child test. There were many people who were older than him. The students invited him to play.

I thought that he was young at that time and drinking would affect his development, so I said this.

Who would have thought that he could remember it until now.

What now?

Lin Zhen unconsciously pinched the flesh on his forehead, and said in his heart, let’s do this first, um, let’s do this first, the child will only be 16 next year, but there should be few people who can do it better than him when it comes to fighting. People can think badly about him in that regard.

I knew that I was hurting myself indiscriminately.

Gu Lin knew that Uncle Lin had deliberately pushed him away, but he didn't ask.

The next day, Gu Lin got up early, washed up, cleaned up, cooked porridge for Lin Zhen in the pot, and walked to the entrance of the alley as agreed with Huang Yuwen and Chen Xing yesterday.

When he arrived, Chen Xing was already waiting there, wearing the brown robe that Lin Zhen bought yesterday, looking very energetic.

And Gu Lin was wearing the crab blue robe, with a thousand-year-old green silk sash around her waist, the lower end hanging down to her ankles, her slightly long hair was tied into a high ponytail with a crab blue headband.

Such a man walked out of the alleyway of a certain age with his sleeves full, his features handsome and inhuman, without the slightest trace of love or desire, in a trance like a young god born from such a city.

Chen Xing raised his hand at him: "Gu Lin."

Gu Lin walked to his side, "When did you come?"

Chen Xing had a relaxed expression on his face that would never appear on his face before: "I just came here not long ago."

"I was in a hurry yesterday and I didn't have time to thank you. If it weren't for you and Yuwen Wangqin's help, I would definitely not be able to win the exam. I will always remember this kindness in my heart."

Gu Lin stood with his hands down, "You are our friend, please be polite."

When the word "friend" came out of his mouth, it seemed very inconsistent with his unkind face, and it seemed even more precious.

The smile on Chen Xing's face became more obvious, "I am the luckiest to have met you."

The two were chatting with each other, when a carriage drove over from the other side of the street. The servants driving the carriage, Gu Lin and Chen Xing, had seen each other before, and it was Huang Yuwen's man.

The next moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted from the inside, and Huang Yuwen sat in the carriage and stretched his head out: "Gu Lin and Chen Xing, come up quickly, let's go in the carriage."

Gu Lin and Chen Xing were not polite. When the carriage stopped, they pulled the crossbar outside and jumped up, bent down and entered the carriage.

The carriage compartment this time is different from the one on the long journey. There is no couch for sleeping, but a low couch that is more convenient to sit on. There are three sides, and there is a table for tea in the middle.

Realizing that they were sitting firmly, the servant driving the carriage lightly urged the horse, and the carriage paused and moved forward.

Shenyan Peak is located on the outskirts of Fucheng, and it is as famous as Luoxia Mountain. However, Luoxia Mountain is famous for its pear trees. Although Shen Yanfeng has a peak word, it is the water that makes people linger.

I heard that there are nineteen large and small waterfalls in Shenyan Peak, full of water everywhere, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. In the rainy season, there are more people than Luoxia Mountain.

Gu Lin, Huang Yuwen, and Chen Xing were sitting in the carriage, and they could hear the same sound of the wheels of the carriage rolling on the road and people talking outside.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped, and the groom who was driving seemed to be afraid of something, and whispered against the curtain of the carriage: "Master, we are here."

Gu Lin, Huang Yuwen, and Chen Xing lifted the curtain of the carriage, and before they got down, they saw orderly government servants and soldiers in armor standing at the foot of Shen Yanfeng Mountain, and the banners were whistling by the wind.

These yamen servants and soldiers are all to ensure the safety of high officials in the court.
