Back To My Husband’s Youth - Chapter 96
Zhao Chengyou had a gloomy face on the way back.
Even when he returned to the Sheng’s house, his face was still very ugly. Sheng Ze was waiting for him with a lantern outside. When he saw him coming down, he smiled and greeted him, “Young Master is back.”
I originally wanted to say a few words with my colleagues, but I was taken aback when I saw Zhao Chengyou’s dark face.
The words that hadn’t been spit out were also stuck in the throat. After a while, he said anxiously: “What’s wrong with you? Is something wrong?”
Zhao Chengyou also noticed that he was wrong when he saw his expression. He knew that he shouldn’t be like this. Gu Wuyou was a **** to him. How could he be confused by a pawn?
But sometimes, emotions are like this.
The more I don’t want to be exposed, the more I don’t want to think about it, the more I can’t control it.
He felt angry as long as he thought of what Gu Wuyou said, especially when he thought of her look when he was asking him if he liked her, it made him feel extremely embarrassed.
Is there anything in this world that makes people more irritating to be shunned and disgusted by people who loved you in the past? It was as if she knew that he liked her, she would be bored and think he was a trouble.
Behavior is almost dominated by emotions.
He couldn’t control his emotions like this for the first time, and even wished to go back to that time, pinch her throat to shut her up, so as not to let him hear the words that made him angry.
“Little Master?”
Sheng Ze was even more worried when he saw that he was still not speaking. He just wanted to order someone to pass on to the doctor, but before he spoke, he heard Zhao Chengyou speak, “I’m fine.”
Zhao Chengyou didn’t want to say more, and after speaking, he continued to walk to the mansion. It was also at this time that he realized that he had been holding the brocade box in his hand. Because of the force, the fingertips were pressed red. It’s almost congested.
Blue veins on his forehead jumped straight.
He said in a cold voice, “Take this thing out of me!”
As long as he thought that he was so stupid that he did not sleep all day and night to make such a thing, he felt that he was simply stupid.
Sheng Ze was obviously surprised, but he didn’t dare to say anything when he looked at his expression. He just agreed and reached out to take the brocade box, only to find that the other end of the brocade box was still firmly held.
“Little Master?”
When Zhao Chengyou heard the sound, the expression on his face became more embarrassed. He gritted his teeth and looked at the brocade box in silence for a while. In the end, he was still calm, closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth, “Nothing, I Do it yourself.”
Finished.
He retracted his hand, held the brocade box in his palm, and continued to walk inside.
Sheng Ze didn’t dare to say much, and followed him, carefully carrying the lamp.
After walking for a while and blowing a cold wind, Zhao Chengyou’s mood finally returned to normal. Although the deepness in his eyes was still there, his voice had returned to the gentleness of the past. He didn’t look at anyone and asked, “I can come home today. people?”
When Sheng Ze saw him asking, he hurriedly replied: “Young Master Yin Family and Master Xu Family have both been here. If you are not here, I will show you that I will come back to you on the next day. There are a few companies that gave you gifts, and I also registered them. Up.”
Zhao Chengyou nodded and said nothing.
“And…” Sheng Ze glanced at him, and his voice suddenly became hesitant.
“what?”
“Langya’s letter…” Sheng Ze looked at Zhao Chengyou’s expression and whispered, “Hou Yongan will come to the capital soon.”
The steps under her feet suddenly stopped. Zhao Chengyou looked at the unclear road ahead in this dark night, and his face was as black as ink after just returning to normal.
After Gu Wuyou returned home, Bailu asked Bailu to deliver the almond tofu to his father first, and then went back to the Star Picking Tower alone, intending to change his clothes before going to stay together with his father and the others.
Hong Shuang brought her washing water. The little girl was a little unhappy because she was not able to go out together today. She pouted and said, “Is the young lady disgusted with me? Now what is the matter, you are always discussing with Bai Lu and going out. Don’t take me either.”
Gu Wuyou was a little amused when he heard this.
She didn’t speak either, just handed over a box of candied fruits that had been prepared for someone earlier, and she was slightly startled when she saw people’s expressions, and then she said, “If I hate you, I will bring you something to eat? Take it. Don’t you like Fumanzhai’s preserves the most?”
Although Hongshuang was about the same size as Bailu, his xinxing was very different.
Bai Lu is steady and reliable, and she does things introvertedly. She usually does everything in the yard. Hongshuang is lovable and talkative. She is the easiest to get together with others, and she is also very good at inquiring about news.
These two maids have followed her since childhood. Gu Wuyou doesn’t make any difference to them. It’s just a matter of generals. The less people know the better… Fortunately, Hong Shuang is a child with a child’s temperament and is still jealous. With a small temper, this will make you happy again with the candied fruit you like.
It just so happened that Gu Wuyou was almost ready to wash and tidy up, and this would make people call Mother Meng over.
When Mother Meng came over, Gu Wuyou was already dressed again and sat outside. Hongshuang was sent to the small kitchen to spread the word, so that she could make some supper for the servants who were still on duty tonight, so that they would not be hungry at night. .
Before Bai Lu came back, she was alone in the house.
When Mother Meng came in, she had to kowtow, but before she left, she was raised by Gu Wuyou to help her. “I told my mother that I didn’t need to be so polite when there was no one.” Pointing to the soft couch next to him, the same person said with a smile: “Sit down, mother, I am looking for you so late, because I have something to ask you.”
“How can this work?”
Mother Meng is a stubborn person. She has always been a stubborn child, and she still keeps her identity in mind. She never dared to go beyond one step. No matter what Gu Wuyou said, she refused to sit next to her until the last two sides. Taking a step back each, she moved a round stool over, but she was only sitting halfway through.
Gu Wuyou looked helpless, but he also knew her temperament, so he handed a cup of tea over, and then asked, “Mother, do you remember my childhood?”
Mother Meng smiled when she heard this, “Of course, you remember that you were all old slaves who grew up before you were five years old. No matter how big or small, the old slaves remember…” Xu recalled the past, she said. The eyebrows under the candlelight became much softer again, watching Gu Wuyou softly said, “You will be a small one, like the boy under the Guanyin Buddha seat, especially beautiful.”
“Then mother remembers the seventh son of the Li family?” Gu Wuyou waited for her to remember the past before asking, “Have I met him when I was young?”
“Prince Li Qi?” Grandma Meng was taken aback, as if she was a little unfamiliar with this name. After a moment of reaction, she smiled: “You mean the child named Ari, right?”
“Ari?”
This time Gu Wuyou was stunned. What is this name? She knew that the generals were ranked seventh, with heavy words, but she didn’t know what Ari was called.
Mother Meng asked, “Is it the Seventh Young Master from Wei Guo Gong’s Mansion?”
When Gu Wuyou nodded his head, he smiled and said, “That’s it. Ari was called when he was a child. When Mrs. Wei Guogong gave birth to him, he dreamed of a civet cat. The person he was born was also thin and weak. Like a cat, he simply took such a nickname and kept it.”
Seeing Gu Wuyou listened with gusto, Mother Meng simply said a few more words, “The lady of Wei Guogong had a good relationship with our young lady. The lady of Hui was married to the capital and was not familiar with those people, but she encountered this at the temple once. Madam, the two have met several times, but they are getting more and more engaged, and later they all became sisters.”
“…Later, Mrs. Wei Guogong gave birth to a son, and our young lady happened to be pregnant. The two also smiled and said that if the young lady is a daughter, they will give you **** of a baby kiss.”
“unfortunately–“
Thinking of those things later, Mother Meng’s voice also lowered, and she sighed softly: “Our young lady went early, and that Mrs. Wei Guogong also followed in a few years.”
Afraid of causing Gu Wuyou’s sadness, Mother Meng didn’t dare to say any more, wiped off her reddish eyes and smiled: “You and that Li Qi Gongzi met several times when you were young, but that’s going to happen to you. It’s normal to be too young to remember.”
I asked her again, with some doubts, “Why did the young lady suddenly mention this today?”
Gu Wuyou really didn’t expect that she and Li Qinyuan would have such a fate. She stayed for a while, and then regained her consciousness and replied, “It’s nothing, just remembered something.”
Mother Meng would say something more. Bailu came back, and she asked Gu Wuyou to make peace and said, “The princess, the grandfather of the country, they have all arrived, are you going to pass or take a break?”
“Go now.” Gu Wuyou stood up, and when he saw Mother Meng followed up, he exhorted: “It’s late at night. Mother, please rest earlier.”
Mother Meng smiled and responded, “Yes.”
Bai Lu helped Gu Wuyou go out. Seeing that she was still a little dazed, knowing that she should have inquired about the things she wanted to know, it was this look that looked a little strange, so she couldn’t help but ask her aloud, “Mother Meng said. What?”
The bright moon outside is still empty.
The red lanterns swayed gently on both sides, and Gu Wuyou slowly walked on the snowy ground in his cloak. Hearing the sound of “cackling”, he chuckled after a while: “I just feel that this world Sometimes the fate is really wonderful.”
She never thought about it.
She and the general had such a fate.
If A-niang is still there, if Madam Shen is still there, if she has never been to Langya, have she and Li Qinyuan known each other a long time ago? They will grow up together, they will go to school together, and the generals will not become what they were afterwards.
“The Sheriff?”
Bai Lu’s voice came from her side, with some doubtful tone, probably wondering what she was thinking.
Gu Wuyou smiled and shook his head, “It’s okay, let’s go.”
Although she is a pity, she does not feel regret.
A person will go through many things in his life and walk many roads. Some of these roads may be smooth sailing without detours from beginning to end, but some will have many bifurcations when you walk… You can’t be sure about each. Every road is good.
But as long as you can finally go out and go right, that’s fine.
Although it was a pity that she did not know the general at the beginning and grew up with him, she was very fortunate to meet him and to know him in such a gloomy time. She was also very fortunate that God gave her the opportunity to start all over again. Let her be fortunate to be able to meet the general so early.
The beauty she experienced on the wrong road is also worthy of her recollection for the rest of her life.
Shousui didn’t go to my grandmother’s side. Grandmother looked very energetic when she was old, but she couldn’t bear the tossing. So they had already spoken earlier, asking them to go back to keep the old age, and the two families went back to their own yards.
Gu Wuyou led Bailu to the big room.
The maids and women surrounded a lot. Some people took the snow from the old days and piled up a few snow dolls and placed them in the yard. Fu Jiang, wearing a red dress, was leading the maids and let them arrange to eat at night. Used fruits and pastries.
“This pastry is too greasy, it sticks to the teeth. Change it to hawthorn cake. This plate of plum pastry is a pretty favorite, and put it there.
“Master likes to drink and sell camellia, you will ask the kitchen to simmer with a small stove later, and cook two more bowls of almond tea. Quite Man and Jiu Fei like to drink it.”
…
Haven’t walked in yet.
Gu Wuyou heard Fu Jiang’s busy schedule. She didn’t know if it was the same before. In the past, she had never spent time with her dad and them, and almost always ran to herself after eating dinner with her grandmother. In the courtyard, at most I can talk to my third brother.
I felt a little ironed and grateful.
A maid saw her hurriedly come over to ask for peace, followed by the voice inside, and then Fu Jiang slapped the curtain out. She seemed a little happy and a little at a loss. She froze over there and didn’t know what to say. what.
Gu Wuyou still pleased someone with a smile, “Mrs. Fu.”
“Hey.”
Fu Jiang responded with a smile, and then spoke a lot more often, “It’s cold outside, come in.”
Gu Wuyou nodded, Bai Lu untied her cloak, and passed the hand stove in her hand to the waiting maid. He glanced at the room and asked, “Where are Daddy and Jiufei?”
“In the study,” Fu Jiang said with a smile, “In the spring, Jiufei will go to Luming to go to school, and the master is taking a test of Jiufei.” She calculated the time, “It’s been a while since I went in here, I Ask them to call them out. Just now, the master said that you did not come back and he has been refusing to set off fireworks.
“Said to wait for you to come.”
Gu Wuyou smiled, “Let me go.” After saying that, she walked to the study by herself. Before she got close, she heard a calm juvenile voice from the study. Through the bright candlelight, she could Seeing Jiu Fei and his father, they stood one by one and the other sat.
She didn’t go in directly either.
Instead, she waited for Jiufei to answer the question and waited for her father to say something. Then she stepped forward and knocked gently on the door. When the voice of father came from inside, she opened the door with a smile, and said to the two of them: “Daddy, Jiufei, it’s time to watch the year.”
Gu Wuji raised his head when he heard her voice.
Under the warm candlelight, the old face was still beautiful, and he smiled and said, “It’s pretty here.”
He stood up and walked towards Gu Wuyou. When passing by Gu Jiufei, he did not look like before. Instead, he patted him on the shoulder, “I learned a lot of homework, but I can’t indulge myself. I’m at home during this time. Prepare well again.”
“Yes.”
“Let’s go.” After Gu Wuji finished speaking, he walked towards Gu Wuyou. Facing his daughter, his expression became softer. He touched her head and asked softly, “Are the fireworks at the East City Gate look good?”
“good looking.”
Gu Wuyou curled her eyes and smiled. When she walked out with her dad, she glanced behind her and found that Gu Jiufi was still following them in silence as before, and then stopped and waved at others. “Nine Fei, hurry up.”
The lantern flickered under the corridor.
Gu Jiufi paused slightly. He raised his eyes and looked forward. The girl in red in the red cloak curled her eyes and smiled at him, but the man beside him didn’t say anything, he gently pursed his lips. The heart beats a bit fast.
then.
The steps under my feet follow the heartbeats, brisk, joyful, and with rare excitement, and move forward.
The original scene one after the other turned into three people walking together on the promenade.
When Fu Jiang saw them coming this way, he was stunned. When he reacted, he laughed, greeted him, and said softly, “Come on, it just happened that everything is almost done. I asked them to move the chairs and tables. The east window has a good view over there, so you don’t need to go out to watch the fireworks later.”
After finishing speaking, as before, I asked Gu Wuji what he meant, “Do you think this is good?”
Gu Wuji nodded, “Just do what you want.”
Fu Jiang smiled and answered.
There is still more than half an hour before the New Year. For fear of keeping the year old and boring, Fu Jiang also prepared a lot of things, such as leaf cards, horse cranes, and Go… .
Although it is a joke.
Gu Wuji also gave a lot of pawns, but Gu Wuyou still lost very tragically. She didn’t care about looking for foreign aid at all. Just like when she played the leaf card before, this would be just as honest as Gu Jiufei to help her play. .
Gu Jiufi glanced at Gu Wuji, and when he saw that he was smiling and not speaking, he followed Gu Wuyou’s intention to help her play chess.
A game of chess that had already shown a defeat was restored by Gu Jiufi’s hands, but Gu Wuji originally saw them as if they were watching kids playing around. This is a bit surprised to see the form of the chess game. After playing chess, he was a lot more serious.
One of the two holds a white piece and the other holds a black piece. The seemingly peaceful chess game seems to have the shadow of blood and light swords.
Gu Wuyou originally watched with patience, but later became more and more confused, and simply fell asleep on the pillow. When she was awakened again, the chess game was over. She blinked her confused eyes. The voice was a little dumb, “Who, who won?”
Gu Jiufi looked at her, her thin lips slightly opened: “Father.”
“Ah…” Gu Wuyou seemed a bit disappointed when she heard this, she thought Jiufei could win.
Gu Wuji wanted to laugh when he saw her like this. He stretched out his hand and patted Gu Wuyou’s brain. He smiled heartily, “Your father is so much older than you anyway, but…” He turned his gaze to Gu Jiufei, too. He smiled and said, “You played well, but you were still young, and you lack some experience, and you are a little impatient afterwards.”
Gu Jiufi rarely blushed.
After all, he is still young, no matter how clever, and no matter how steady he is, he will inevitably show timidity when he meets experienced people, but he doesn’t feel ashamed of this. He knows what’s wrong, so he can make corrections. After hearing this, he bowed his head and said: “Thank you father for teaching.”
A few more firecrackers sounded outside, followed by the voice of a maid and a woman, who said happily, “The new year is here.”
Gu Wuyou leaned out half of her body when she heard this. The golden light outside, the night was like daytime, her face was filled with a brilliant smile, before the fireworks in the sky had dissipated, she silently made a wish in her heart: hope for something new One year, his family is healthy and the general is getting better and better.
Just finished making a wish.
There was a red envelope in front of me.
Gu Wuji saw her turn her head, raised his hand and touched her head, his voice was gentle and full of love, “You must be happy in the new year.” He never asked for anything else, but looked forward to his daughter. Can be happy and joyful.
“Daddy…” Gu Wuyou’s eyes were a little red.
Gu Wuji smiled and touched her head again, and then handed another red envelope in his hand to Gu Jiufei.
Gu Jiufi looked at this red envelope a little bit stunned. His father had never given him a red envelope face-to-face. They were all brought to him by a trustee, and he didn’t stay together with them… This is the first time they stayed together. , Play chess together.
Gu Wuji also seems to be a little unaccustomed.
He can unreservedly express his love for his daughter, spoil her, and indulge her, but for various reasons, he is always less close to his son, even if he is slightly relieved now, But those words are not so easy to say.
In the end, I could only spit out a few words dryly, “Happy New Year.”
Gu Jiufi said with a dumb voice, took the red envelope, and said, “…thank you, father.”
His slender fingers held the red envelope tightly, as if he was a little dare not sure, he held it so hard, even his fingers were a little white.
He has been calm since he was a child, seldom exposed his emotions, and thought through. He may have cried for those missing emotions when he was very young, but he has become indifferent when he grows up… I promised that in this life, I just need to guard my mother.
People who don’t love him, he won’t take another look.
But it turned out that he was still greedy, greedy the way Gu Wuyou rushed out to save him with a stick in the alley that day, greedy Gu Wuyou did not cover up in front of everyone and said, “He is my brother”. Circumstances, but also greedy… This father’s love of licking the calf.
He doesn’t want much.
As long as the other party has him in his heart, and only the other party remembers him, even if there is only one point, that is enough for him.
When Fu Jiang came in, she saw her little-spoken son holding a red envelope in his hand. Because of her head down, she couldn’t see the expression on his face, but she could guess what he was thinking… …The eye sockets were a little hot, and she reluctantly forced the tears back.
Wait until the emotions are adjusted well before walking over.
She also held two red envelopes in her hand, gave Gu Wuyou and Gu Jiifei, and said a few words of blessing. Looking at Gu Wuyou, whose eyes were getting more and more confused, she smiled and said with concern: “The man is also sleepy. Now, should I ask someone to bring the sedan chair over?”
Gu Wuyou shook his head, “No, it’s not far in the past.”
Although she was sleepy, she was not out of the way. She smiled and stood up and said, “Daddy, Madam Fu, I’ll go back first.” After that, she got up and walked outside.
Gu Jiufi also stood up: “I will send you there.”
Looking at him in surprise, Gu Wuyou didn’t say a word. He smiled and nodded. The two siblings walked out together. After they left, Fu Jiang looked at Gu Wuji, which she admired since she was a child. Man, even after so many years, she still throbs when she sees him.
The candlelight flickered in the room.
She saw people still looking in the direction Gu Wuyou was leaving, with a sense of melancholy and nostalgia in her eyes, and she knew that he was thinking of his dead wife again. Fu Jiang had no extra thoughts in his mind about this. Asked before: “Sister Wang’s things are also ready. Is the master now in the past?”
“Ok.”
Gu Wuji retracted his gaze and stood up. When he was about to leave, he stopped and looked at Fu Jiang, who was looking at him. He seemed to hesitate for a while before he said, “You have worked hard, go to bed earlier. Right.”
Fu Jiang smiled and answered “Yes”, watching Gu Wuji leave.
Qingdai looked at her disapprovingly, and when everyone was dispatched, she helped Fu Jiang whispered: “Why did you take the initiative to bring this up? I think the master is very happy today, you…”
Fu Jiang smiled, did not say anything, just said: “Serve me to wash.”
“lady……”
Qingdai pursed her mouth, and saw that she still looked like this, she couldn’t help sighing again, “Yes.”
She fell in love with Gu Wuji, which was a matter of her youth.
At that time, Gu Wuji had not yet married his wife, nor was he calm afterwards. He was wearing a high ponytail and running around the city on a fierce horse all day long. He was a man of sparse personality, not stiff, and a teenager of the same age in Beijing. All like to follow him.
When he was a teenager, Gu Wuji liked to wear scarlet clothes, a golden crown, and a white jade belt around his waist.
Every time he goes out, many women will look at him openly and secretly, but she likes him, but not because of his face.
It’s because of a competition–
Because she is a woman, everyone else feels that she is not dignified when she wins, and deliberately let her, only Gu Wuji did not treat her as a woman, but straightforwardly said to her, “Since you want to compete, I won’t let you .”
Then, I really didn’t let him.
She is a family of military commanders, she is used to being careless, not more attentive than other girls. When she discovers the affection for Gu Wuji, he has already ran to Langya, and after that… he is like a person changed. He used to run rampant and recklessly. ‘S teenager suddenly became mature.
Someone told her that he was going to marry, and she was a girl from the Langya family.
She secretly rode to Gu’s house, and saw Gu Wuji coming back halfway. He was still riding a fierce horse, but not like before, but pacing gently on the carriage, and then I don’t know what to say. , Causing the girl in the carriage to laugh.
He bends over coquettishly.
A nice hand stretched out from the carriage, holding a veil embroidered with epiphany, to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Fu Jiang never thought that one day the little overlord in Beijing would become so obedient. She had always thought that Gu Wuji would be so wanton and indulgent for a lifetime… Later, he married the Wang family, the couple was harmonious, and the piano was peaceful.
If it were not for Miss Wang’s poor health, they might have lived like this for a lifetime.
She asked for this marriage.
For this, she was scolded by her parents, and even her brother, who had cherished her since childhood, disagreed. But she was determined to marry Gu’s family. Even though she knew that the road was bound to be bumpy, she still had no hesitation.
That was her dream when she was young.
When she was still Zhimu Shaoai, she was the first young man to make her feel stunned.
Fu Jiang knows what others think of her, but she doesn’t care, she doesn’t hate Gu Wuji, nor is she jealous of Wang Chengdai. She doesn’t want much, as long as she can always be by his side.
Like today, the family is happy, and he can say “hard work” to her, and she will be very happy.
The night was faint, Fu Jiang looked at himself in the mirror, and laughed, still the heroic appearance of his youth: “I seek benevolence and benevolence, and I have no regrets.”
A few days later.
Gu Wuyou is leaning on the pillow. She has either paid homage to her ancestors or walked away with relatives.
But once busy people are free, some do not know what to do.
Ayu and Auntie went to the Liu’s house for a kiss. She didn’t know where the general was. After thinking about it, she still planned to go to the second sister to sit down. Just as she was about to ask someone to prepare something for her, she saw Bai Lu coming in. Stepping on the soft-soled shoes, the same person said: “It just so happens that you will find the spices sent by my grandmother the other day for me, and I will see my second sister.”
“The Sheriff,”
Bai Lu came over, but didn’t answer immediately, instead he said to her with an ear: “Young Master Li Qi is here, this will be on the Third Young Master’s side.”
