Chapter 252(1/2)
It's the weekend again.
Si Xingpei went out this time and has not returned for more than half a month. The account that Gu Qingzhou and Si Mu met late at night may have to be kept for later settlement.
Gu Qingzhou tensed his heart.
"He will be irritated this time." Gu Qingzhou thought.
Si Xingpei is particularly jealous and has a strong sense of dominance.
Si Mu arrived at Gu Qingzhou's house in the middle of the night and pulled Gu Qingzhou to the seawall. Si Xingpei must know.
Although he would punish Gu Qingzhou, he would be very angry, Gu Qingzhou was actually feeling a little gloating in his spare time.
"I must be crazy. I want to make things difficult for Si Xingpei all day long." She thought.
Si Xingpei is not happy anymore, can she be happy?
On the first day of March, Gu Shaoyuan's cruise ship traveling to France will set off on time at 1:00 pm.
Gu Guizhang prepared all the procedures for him, handed over the five big yellow croaker gold bars to the British bank safe, and then transferred to France. Gu Shao could get it when he arrived in France.
There are a lot of handling fees in the meantime, but it is much lower than the exchange rate.
Gu Guizhang is cost-effective.
Gu Guizhang listened to Gu Qingzhou's suggestion.
Gu Shao had no worries about studying. No matter what happened to the Gu family, he would not be involved. Gu Qingzhou was quite pleased.
"Brother, I'll give it to you!" Gu Qingzhou took out a sachet embroidered with white camellia and handed it to Gu Shao. The white tea embroidery of the sachet was excellent, and it was blooming with a savory spirit, and the edges were inlaid with golden silk.
Gu Shao took it, first marveling at the exquisiteness of the sachet, then felt heavy hand, and asked, "What is it?"
When I opened it, I found that it was a yellow yellow croaker gold bar.
"You... Where did you get so much money?" Gu Shao was shocked and wanted to return the sachet to Gu Qingzhou. "I can't ask for it, you have collected it yourself. Where did you get the money?"
Gu Qingzhou refused to answer and gently wrapped Gu Shao's hand: "Brother, the money my dad gave you is just enough for your four years of tuition and living expenses. But you are far away in a foreign country. What if something happens and you have no money to stay with you?"
"I can study hard and earn scholarships, and do some odd jobs." Gu Shao said, "Zhouzhou, I can take good care of myself. I heard from the teachers that the senior brother's scholarship is very generous."
Gu Qingzhou insisted on giving it to him and persuaded him to accept it: "If you return to China in the future, it will not be too late to return it to me. Just think I lent it to you. Anyway, I won't use it for the time being."
She kept holding his hand, very hard, but her palms were soft.
Gu Shao felt a tide in his heart, and finally felt sad about parting.
He actually couldn't bear to leave people, including his father, Zhou Zhou, eldest sister, Yingying, and even the dead Qin Zhengzheng.
Even though Qin Zhengzheng had been pretending to him for more than ten years, Gu Shao still remembered the kindness he had raised.
The one who is most reluctant to leave is to count the number of people alone.
The brother and sister sat opposite each other silently until the middle of the night, Gu Shao didn't go back to sleep.
On the morning of the first day of the New Year, it started to rain slightly.
The Gu family had lunch at 10 o'clock and took Gu Shao to the wharf together.
The drizzle is hazy, adding to the coldness of spring, and the chill under the green sleeves becomes more and more affectionate.
The raindrops are weaving the clothes, like outlining the gorgeous brocade pictures, light and as if ice is removed, covering the sadness of parting.
The pier is bustling with people, and the sound of whistles is roaring.
"When you arrive in Paris, you will send a telegram to your home." Gu Guizhang couldn't bear to part with his son, so he said goodbye, "When you go out, be careful when making friends, don't be fooled by others. Don't spend money on your life."
Gu Shao said, respectful and docile.
The second concubine also stepped forward and said a few goodbye words.
The sisters Gu Huang and Gu Ying were reluctant to part with Gu Shao, especially the young Gu Ying, who couldn't help crying.
"Take good at home." Gu Shao said to Gu Ying, his eyes sore.
Passengers flocked to the gate, surrounded by farewell people, crowded.
"Okay, get on the ship quickly." Gu Guizhang urged, "Don't miss the trip."
Gu Shao said: "Dad, I'm leaving, take care of yourself!"
A man of medium figure, holding a black umbrella, squeezed in front of everyone in the Gu family, with a calm and gentle smile.
Everyone was slightly surprised.
They don't know this person.
When they thought they were Gu Guizhang's friend, the man said to Gu Qingzhou: "Ms. Gu, I just looked like you from a distance. Where are you going?"
It is the third master of the Chen family.
This is the ship that Chen family traveled to Europe.
Gu Guizhang looked at this person with extraordinary temperament and thought to himself who it was, how did he know Gu Qingzhou?
Gu Qingzhou's connections are deeper than Gu Guizhang imagined, and Gu Guizhang felt a little proud: Gu Qingzhou is his daughter, his most successful masterpiece.
"It's not me, it's my prince who wants to leave France." Gu Qingzhou smiled and then explained, "This is the third master of the Chen family. This ship is only from the Chen family."
Gu Guizhang took a deep breath.
The Chen family of ships has a British background, and even the Qing Gang and the military government have to give their family a little face. The Chen family is famous for being difficult to make friends, so Gu Qingzhou actually knows it?
This daughter is even more powerful than I thought!
Gu Guizhang couldn't help but be proud.
"......This is my dad." Gu Qingzhou also introduced Gu Guizhang.
Gu Guizhang had a decent attitude and shook hands with Mr. Chen San to greet him.
In the distance, the cruise ship at the gate was honking its whistle. This was the second whistle, which meant that the ship would be set in fifteen minutes.
The sound of the flute was very long and pulled for a full minute.
The voices of speech will also be drowned, and everyone will be silent.
When the sound of the flute passed, Mr. Chen San said, "Master Gu wants to send Mr. Gu? This cruise ship passes through Hangzhou and will stop for half an hour. You will get down and return by boat. It will take only one or two days to go."
Gu Shao was very moved and looked at Gu Guizhang.
Gu Guizhang was not free, and the affairs in his yamen could not be delayed for a day.
"Dad, I think about A Shao!" Gu Xiang said immediately, his eyes red.
Gu Guizhang didn't like her very much and immediately said solemnly: "What are you sending? It's not enough to mislead the problem! Besides, you are a girl, why are you back?"
"It's okay. If Miss Gu wants to go, she will come back from our boat. When our boat arrives in Hangzhou, there will be a boat back that day." Mr. Chen San said.
But Gu Shao held Gu Qingzhou's hand: "Zhouzhou, please send me, let's talk. Dad, please ask Zhouzhou to send me, and then come back from Mr. Chen's boat. Zhouzhou is fine."
His eyes were filled with sadness of parting.
It happened to be a weekend.
When Gu Guizhang saw that the Chen family also wanted to sell favors to Gu Qingzhou, Gu Shao was willing to send it to Gu Qingzhou, so Gu Guizhang said, "Qingzhou, you send it to your brother for us."
Gu Qian was unfair: "Bad, A Shao is my brother, why should I send him there with me with a light boat?"
Mr. Chen San looked back and glanced at Gu Xiang.
At this glance, with scrutiny and blame, it seemed that the young lady was uneducated, and Gu Guizhang was blushing and extremely embarrassed.
Gu Xiang is too uneducated!
"Don't make a fuss!" Gu Guizhang lowered his voice, his eyes falling fiercely on Gu Xiang's face.
Gu Xiang was startled and said nothing. She went to see Gu Shao, but found that Gu Shao's eyes were all on Gu Qingzhou.
Seeing that fewer and fewer people at the gate were coming, even the crew members were boarding the ship. When it was about to start the ship, Gu Guizhang waved his hand and said, "Go away quickly."
Gu Shao held the box in one hand and Gu Qingzhou in the other hand, and went up the gangway with a faint smile on his face, without the loss and sadness he had before.
Gu Guizhang also breathed a sigh of relief.
A child's journey is better than anything else.
The rain has not stopped yet, and it is hazy and lingering in front of the heaven and earth.
Gu Shao entered the cabin to put his luggage, Gu Qingzhou squeezed on the deck and waved goodbye to the people on the shore.
Then Gu Shao came out, the ship was far away from the shore, and there were only a faint shadow left on the pier, which could not be seen clearly.
"Bada and the others are back." Gu Qingzhou pointed to the crowd, but there were no Gu Guizhang and others.
Gu Shao smiled, not minding.
The cruise ship was walking through the waves, the snow waves rolled and danced around the hull.
"I really didn't expect that you could give me a ride." Gu Shao was happy, like a excited child, accidentally got the gift he wanted the most.
The sorrow of leaving home was wiped out.
It is not so boring on cruise ships, especially on long-distance cruises.
