Section 208 Persistence(1/2)
Three days later, there was no news about the Liang family.
We are all calm people who want both profit and face.
Gu Jinzhi kept thinking in his mind, what would be his plan for his father-in-law?
The Liang family is kind to him, and he will not let it go. According to his character, it is impossible to say it clearly. The best he can do is to beat the drum so that the Gu family can know themselves and not lose both sides in the fight; or reveal it to the emperor and the queen mother.
Let the emperor and the queen mother have mercy on him.
He remained silent, served the monarch without any desire, and gained a good reputation.
Sure enough, on July 18th, Gu Jinzhi's uncle Gu Yantao came to visit.
He also brought several followers with him.
As soon as he entered the door, he became aggressive and said: "Get out of here, we are closed today!" He drove all the patients out of the shop.
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Even the old man came out from the corner.
But no one stopped Gu Yantao, and he allowed his people to clear the shop and close the door.
Gu Yantao was so angry that he reluctantly bowed to the old man and called him dad: "... My son has something to tell you."
He wanted to move to the corner and talk to the old man alone.
The old man showed no expression and walked into the room first.
Neither Gu Jinzhi nor Gu Chenzhi spoke. The brother and sister stood back, trying not to be in Gu Yantao's sight.
"Is that your father?" Lin Yi asked Gu Chenzhi, "Who is the elder of the pavilion?"
Gu Chenzhi nodded, without any honor, but instead felt a little nervous in his heart.
His father acted for his own benefit and did not care about others.
What happened this time?
Gu Jinzhi thought of Xiang Liang.
It must be related to Xiang Liang, other book friends are reading:.
However, according to Xiang Liang's character, he would definitely not take the initiative to complain. Even if he told Gu Yantao, it was just a hint to Gu Yantao.
And Gu Yantao now wants to become the first assistant and waits for Xia first assistant to take office. He does not dare to offend anyone who will affect his future.
The eunuchs and eunuchs beside the emperor had the power to criticize the emperor, and Gu Yantao did not dare to offend him.
After hearing the news, Gu Yantao wanted to buy a favor for himself. It was possible.
Gu Jinzhi moved closer to the door, wanting to hear what was said inside.
She couldn't hear clearly, so she simply stood at the door.
Gu Chenzhi was stunned.
For a moment, he hesitated, but finally, like Gu Jinzhi, he stood at the door.
Lin Yi was very amused when he saw the brother and sister eavesdropping so openly and couldn't help but laugh.
"...How much private money you have, why don't you leave it to your children and grandchildren? Your children and grandchildren will still miss you in the future! You give it to these people for nothing. Who will they care about you?" Gu Yantao's voice was full of anger. "You show your ability first.
.It doesn’t have to be like this. We live in such tight quarters, but if we do these things to spread our wealth, others would laugh out loud. Do you still think others are praising you?"
Accused the old man unceremoniously.
Gu Jinzhi's hand tightened again and again.
Gu Chenzhi's face didn't look good either.
"I do things. Do I need to explain to you?" The old man said quietly, his voice neither soft nor serious, no different from usual.
"Of course you don't have to answer to me!" Gu Yantao gritted his teeth, "No one can answer to your behavior! In the future, when you die, do you want us to enshrine a spiritual throne? If you don't add wealth to me, I will admit it. You still make enemies against me.
Home!"
The words become more and more unpleasant to listen to.
Even the false respect was gone from his tone.
Gu Jinzhi lifted the soft curtain and walked in.
"Uncle, eldest brother is outside. Is this how you talk to your grandfather?" Gu Jinzhi said sternly, "If you don't respect your grandfather, aren't you afraid that your eldest brother will follow his example and not respect you in the future? If you say anything rude again, I will go to the Queen Mother.
Your Majesty, it would be unfilial to read your book!"
Gu Chenzhi also followed in.
Gu Jinzhi's words made the scene a little quiet.
Gu Yantao's originally angry face changed even more.
The old man had a smile in his eyes.
"Dad..." Gu Chenzhi also wanted to persuade him, but seeing that Gu Yantao's face was red, his eyes were about to burst into flames, his fists were clenching, and he was so angry that he didn't dare to say more and swallowed his words again.
Gu Yantao, on the other hand, was so angry that he was trembling with anger.
But in the end, Gu Jinzhi's threat worked.
Gu Yantao is afraid of the Queen Mother, and Gu Jinzhi is the Queen Mother's treasure...
"Dad, please don't be offended by what my son said inappropriately." Gu Yantao endured his overwhelming anger and knelt down to apologize to the old man.
The old man smiled again and said nothing.
"I'm not asking for anything else, son. I just ask you to stop being stubborn." Gu Yantao said, "This drug store is not interesting. If you have money, leave some for the children. If you really want to ask for medical advice and teaching, charge cheaper, at least others don't have to gossip.
."
"You don't need to ask about the drug store..." the old man said, "I know it well, other book friends are reading:."
Gu Yantao became angry again.
"In front of the children, I made it clear and direct: There are some people in this world who can be offended, and some people who cannot be offended. If you don't care about it in the future, we will still be alive... Even if you go, aren't you afraid that someone will dig up your ancestral graves?
, Are you uneasy under the spring?" Gu Yantao's voice became stern again.
"What I did was just because I was afraid that one day someone would dig up my ancestor's grave and I would be uneasy." The old man said, "Now, you take care of yourself and I will take care of my place. I don't expect you to attend the funeral in the future."
It is enough to roll up a torn straw mat and bury me in the ancestral grave. You don’t have to resent me. Where my money comes from and where I go back has nothing to do with you..."
Gu Yantao's face was almost distorted.
His fists were clenched tightly.
He will never understand what this old man is thinking about in his life!
"You deserve to be a coward for the rest of your life!" Gu Yantao cursed angrily at the end and threw away his sleeves.
Gu Chenzhi stood there, in a dilemma. He didn't know whether he should go after his father to comfort him or stay and comfort his grandfather who was scolded by his son...
For a moment, I actually felt a little sad.
As far back as he can remember, his father often complained about his grandfather, but his grandfather never retaliate.
"Let's take a day off today." The old man smiled as if nothing had happened, "Everyone is tired these days..."
It's still the most normal tone. It's not affected at all.
Gu Jinzhi's idea was to go out and tell everyone.
Lin Yi, Si Jian and others also heard about the quarrel inside.
Everyone said nothing and dispersed silently.
Zhu Zhongjun, who was practicing swordplay in the backyard, also came over.
He thought to himself: Father and son are not of the same mind. Because of their different personalities and concepts, they eventually become enemies. He knows this feeling too well...
He glanced at Gu Jinzhi, gently pulled her hand, and offered some comfort. Finally, he went back to the backyard to practice his sword.
Lin Yi went out and prepared to go for a walk on the street. He couldn't stay in the shop for fear that his employer would be embarrassed because he was an outsider.
Gu Chenzhi was full of words, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He took the medical records compiled by the old man and went back to his room to review his homework.
Gu Jinzhi asked the old man: "There is a teahouse diagonally across from our shop. There is a gentleman who is a storyteller. He has a good tongue. He laughs and curses. It is very interesting. Tea and refreshments are also good. Grandpa, do you want to go and sit there?"
Since arriving here, the old man rarely walks on the streets.
Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun, on the other hand, had some free time the past few days. They visited this street all over.
"Okay." The old man said.
The grandfather and grandson went out.
The teahouse is divided into two floors.
The hall was lively and noisy.
There is also a private room upstairs.
Mr. Gu and Gu Jinzhi found a seat in the hall downstairs and sat down.
