184 The Gu family
In the lobby of the Gu family's old house, Gu Changming had just returned from the palace and was caught here to receive guests before he had time to change his official uniform.
Obviously, he was not sure what was going on.
Therefore, when I saw Liu Hanwen with a polite face at the lower head and Liu Yunsheng with a swollen face beside me, I felt my head confused.
Who can give him some advice on what happened?
Liu Hanwen looked up at him, feeling a little unhappy.
He was the head of the Liu family and personally brought someone to apologize. He thought he would be personally received by Mr. Gu, but he sent a younger generation, who was also a concubine.
It is unhappy that it is unhappy, but the Gu family is small, especially Mr. Gu and his wife died more than ten years ago. Therefore, there are no other elders in the family except Mr. Gu.
"Cough--" Liu Hanwen coughed a little awkwardly and said to Gu Changming: "Today, the dog son had some conflicts with the second son, and his words were a bit offensive to the old man. Then I took him with him to apologize to the old man. I wonder if I can report it?"
Gu Changming nodded in a clear way, then smiled gently, "To be honest, since my brother went to Linzhou, there have been continuous problems, and my grandfather's emotions and body have also fluctuated. So, I finally couldn't bear it two days ago and fell ill in bed."
Liu Hanwen frowned, it was a coincidence.
"Old Master Gu is the lintel and helmman of the Gu family. You must take care of yourself. Since the old master is in poor health, I will not disturb you anymore and say goodbye first."
After saying that, he stood up and bowed, and his courtesy was very thoughtful.
In addition to being a little surprised when Gu Changming saw this, he was also polite and polite, "I hope the head of the Liu family will not blame him."
After seeing off the Liu family father and son who were obviously unwilling to accept it, Gu Changming gradually stepped down the gentleness on his face, and looked at the butler and asked, "Where is the second young master?"
The housekeeper lowered his head and said, "The second young master has not come back yet."
Gu Changming stopped talking about anything else and walked to the backyard.
Old Master Gu's health is not in good condition. He only drinks tea, flowers and birds all day long, but also finds people to play chess and chat to relieve boredom.
It doesn't mean to be sick at all, it just doesn't want to come out to welcome guests.
"Are they leaving?"
In a corner of the small garden in the backyard, an old but very powerful voice came, accompanied by another voice, "It's really strange that this boy from the Liu family can actually come to the door to apologize in person."
Gu Changming immediately said respectfully: "I have met Mr. An."
"They have left, but they are a little unwilling to leave."
Mr. Gu hummed twice with disdain, held Bai Zi in his hand and found a good place to put it down, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Mr. An, "You old guy, when you see me distracted, you block my way out."
Mr. Gu was having a lot of fun, so he ignored Mr. An's furiousness and slapped the table with a smile, "It's because you are not good at using your own brain. Who are you going to blame?"
Mr. An was so angry that he thought to himself, your grandson robbed my grandson’s new owner, and you are still blocking my way out here.
What's going on with your family?
Seeing the two old men like this, Gu Changming was afraid that they would become really riotous, so he hurriedly advised: "Grandfather, Old Master An, you have been having sex for a long time and should be tired. The kitchen has already prepared meals, so why not have a meal and take a break for a while."
Mr. Gu was naturally happy after winning the son. When he heard his grandson talking, he immediately got up and left, "Go for a walk and have a meal."
Old Master An was unhappy, but Old Master Gu had already gotten up and left the table. He could not hold on any longer, so he had to follow him angrily, "You are really playing tricks, and you will never play with you again."
Gu Changming led the way in front and led the two of them to the hall. He just smiled and said, "I'll make Old Master An laugh today."
Old Master An and the Gu family met each other in their early years. After they were separated for decades, they did not get along with each other.
At this time, two elderly people sat at the same table to eat and drink, recalling the past, and they were very happy. Soon after, they drove Gu Changming out and asked him to go back to his room to rest, without paying attention to the two old guys.
Gu Changming knew very well that the elders were afraid that he would be too tired to serve him all the time, so he refused. After bowing and retreating, he heard the official family who had been guarding the door and whispered: "The Second Young Master is back, and his face is not kind."
The Gu family does not have many descendants, but they are very united and do not fight each other like other big families.
Gu Changming knew very well about his younger siblings' temperament. The reason why he chose the second brother to go to business was because he was tolerant, had good temperament, and had the means to do things, and also knew how to judge the situation.
Even so, I can still beat Liu Yunsheng in the street today. I guess the other party really deserves a beating.
Gu Changming rushed to Jinxiang Courtyard all the way. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw his sister-in-law Xiao was giving instructions to his maid. When he saw him entering the door, he hurriedly came forward, "I have met my elder brother. Did you come to find your husband?"
Gu Changming nodded and looked at the study, "He is inside?"
Xiao replied: "My husband just came back and seemed to be in a bad mood."
Gu Changming nodded clearly, "I'll go in and take a look, you can go down."
Xiao responded and took all the maids and mothers out.
As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, Lan'er, the close maid beside her, asked in confusion: "Second Madam, what's wrong with the Second Young Master? She seems to be very angry."
Xiao's face was not very good either.
She already knew what happened in Yueyang Tower. While annoyed Liu Yunsheng's arrogant and domineering, she was worried that her husband would be retaliated in the future.
He was just a concubine, and no matter what the reason was, he would inevitably be polite.
"It is not easy for the Second Master to run around outside, and there will inevitably be times when you are angry. Be careful when serving these two days."
Lan'er responded quickly.
"Old Master An is still in the mansion?"
"Yes, I heard that I'm having a meal with the old man."
Xiao sighed again at the sky.
Something happened in Linzhou, and the An family and the Chu family returned to the capital to settle down, but the Gu family's legitimate son and daughter were still there, and I don't know what the situation was, which is really worrying.
Seeing that her wife's face was not very good, Lan'er turned her head and figured out the reason, "Is the second wife worried about the third master and the lady?"
Xiao nodded, found a pavilion nearby and sat down, rested, and sighed: "I wrote a letter from Linzhou a few days ago, saying that everything was fine there and no need to worry about it. But you see, the An family and the Chu family have all returned to the capital, but only the third brother and younger sister are still in Linzhou, so how can people not worry?"
Seeing this, Lan'er didn't know how to comfort her, but instead remembered something, "Second Madam, I heard that our third young master's fiancée also seemed to be staying in Linzhou."
