The next day, after Gu Zheng and Gu Qing went to court, they brought two people familiar to Gu Man.
Qiu Zining and Liu Changqing.
She never expected that Qiu Zining would show up at her house. Also, why did Liu Changqing come? And Gu Zheng was still so happy?
Gu Man frowned unconsciously. She originally came to her parents' house to hide from Cheng Mo, the god of plague. But she didn't expect that after hiding one person, another one came.
Speaking of which, I received a letter from Ji Moyan yesterday evening. Cheng Mo asked about her whereabouts. Ji Moyan told the truth, and Cheng Mo said nothing more.
Gu Man felt a little relieved.
Qiu Zining shouted in surprise: "My benefactor?"
Everyone looked confused.
Gu Zheng asked: "Have you met Zi Ning?"
Qiu Zining nodded, and then told Gu Zheng and Qin Fanghua the past events of "Jidi Lou", except for their second meeting.
Gu Qinghe and Liu Changqing on the side also understood that they were also present that day.
After hearing what Qiu Zining said, Gu Zheng smiled and said, "Oh? That's so? What a coincidence!"
Gu Man said in her heart: Yes... what a coincidence!
After an interlude, Gu Zheng introduced to Gu Man and Qin Fanghua: "Qiu Zining and Liu Changqing, I won't introduce Changqing. Zining is the number one scholar in this subject and has outstanding literary talent! The palace given to him by the emperor is also It is under renovation, so before his mansion is repaired, Zi Ning will live in our house! Now, Jinke Zhuangyuan and Tanhua have become my disciples, and all the old men in the court are jealous of me! Hahaha!"
Gu Zheng was extremely proud.
Qin Fanghua immediately smiled and said: "Welcome, welcome, the number one scholar can just treat this place as his home!"
Qiu Zining thanked him and said, "Thank you so much, Master!"
Qiu Zining is handsome and polite, and Qin Fanghua likes him very much.
Gu Man was confused and uneasy. It seemed that the book never mentioned that Qiu Zining would worship Gu Zheng as his disciple?
Is it really just a coincidence? Qiu Zining knows that she is Cheng Mo's wife, so if he inquires, he will definitely know who her father is, but now he has become her father as his disciple...
Liu Changqing, who was on the side, looked at Qin Fanghua and said jealously: "Don't you welcome me, Master?"
Qin Fanghua smiled and patted Liu Changqing and said, "You boy, how could my wife not welcome you? All the snacks she made for you were in vain?"
Liu Changqing chuckled and said, "Master, please don't be partial. You are about to take office. The student also wants to live in the mansion and learn from the teacher how to be an official. I wonder if Master will allow it?"
Qin Fanghua said: "Of course, the more family members there are, the happier I will be!"
Ever since Qiu Zining moved into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Man has been staying in his yard and not going out, firstly to avoid suspicion and secondly to avoid disaster.
But Liu Changqing also lived in her house, and Gu Man thought to herself: This is a good opportunity for Tingli and Liu Changqing to cultivate their relationship! So, she immediately wrote a letter to Tingli!
In the evening when we were having dinner, we heard Tingli shouting: "Uncle, aunt, I'm coming!"
Sure enough, I heard his voice before I saw him.
Qin Fanghua said in surprise: "Hey, what day is it today? Why is Tingli here too? It's so lively now. We haven't had so many people in our house for a long time!"
As soon as Tingli entered the door, she threw herself into Qin Fanghua's arms with a smile and said coquettishly: "Aunt, I miss you so much!"
Qin Fanghua smiled and said: "Auntie misses you too, how are you doing recently? How are the emperor and queen?"
Tingli replied: "Everything is fine!"
Gu Zheng on the side asked: "What is Tingli doing here?"
Tingli waved his hand, "Uncle, I'm sorry, I just missed you. I heard you were home, so I came over to join in the fun!" After saying that, Tingli glanced at Liu Changqing secretly. Liu Changqing frowned. Frowning slightly, he pretended not to see it, and then looked at Gu Man. He saw that Gu Man was lowering his head, trying to shrink himself into a quail.
I heard Tingli say again: "Aunt, I'm here just now. Can I stay here for a few days?"
Gu Qinghe, who was standing by, had a clear view of the expressions of the three of them, and said deliberately: "How can your majesty, the princess, condescend to live in my house? It's not right, it's not right! It's really not right!"
Ting Li glared at Gu Qinghe angrily and said angrily: "Why is it wrong?! It's not like I haven't lived together before. It's just like before. It's okay if we live together!" After saying that, he turned around Crying to Qin Fanghua, "Aunt, look at Qing and cousin!"
Qin Fanghua looked at Gu Qinghe, smiled and scolded: "Tingli is a princess, but she is also the daughter of our Qin family. Don't bully us, Tingli!"
Tingli looked at Gu Qinghe proudly, and Gu Qinghe shrugged and smiled.
Gu Zheng laughed and said, "You two have been bickering since childhood, Tingli. Since you like my uncle's place so much, why not just marry Qinghe! You can live here as long as you want!"
Gu Qinghe is not married yet, and he doesn't even have a girl to live with. This is what Gu Man found out today.
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, Qin Fanghua smiled and said, "I think it works! Let's get closer!"
Hearing what the second elder said, Liu Changqing also became interested and echoed: "Teacher, what my wife said makes sense!"
Gu Qing and He Tingli said in unison: "No!"
Liu Changqing immediately said: "Master's wife, you see how well they have a tacit understanding!"
Hearing Liu Changqing's words, Tingli almost cried.
Gu Man hurriedly stepped forward and changed the subject: "Hurry up and sit down to eat! The food is already cold!"
After everyone chatted and laughed for a while, they enjoyed a sumptuous dinner in a lively atmosphere.
After dinner, Gu Zheng took his eldest son and two newly admitted students to the study room to discuss matters. Qiu Zining took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention. When he passed by Gu Man, he stuffed a ball of unknown substance into her hand. Something like that startled Gu Man and gave her goosebumps all over her body.
Gu Man hurriedly clenched the things in her hands. After chatting with Qin Fanghua for a long time with Tingli, she hurried back to her yard.
After Gu Man returned to the room, she dared to take the thing out secretly. What was thrust into Gu Man's hand was a note with the first two sentences of "Guan Ju" written on it:
Guan Guan Jujiu, on the river island.
A graceful lady, a gentleman is a good man.
Qiu Zining...
Gu Man was extremely nervous at the moment. Did he really still like her?
At this time, Tingli walked in from outside the house. Seeing Gu Man's frown, he hurriedly asked: "Okay, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Man shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Gu Man decided not to tell Ting Li, lest she go to Qiu Zining to trouble her, otherwise she would not be able to explain clearly.
But... Gu Man thought: What if she is really kidnapped by Qiu Zining? As the saying goes, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you guard against a thief for a thousand days? Is it possible that she will have to hide her whole life? She can't Guarantee whether Cheng Mo will save her. Besides, she and Cheng Mo had already broken up with each other that day. Tell Gu Qinghe? But Qiu Zining is Gu Zheng's student now. If he tells Gu Qinghe about this, he will definitely go find her. Qiu Zining, I'm afraid it will only make the situation more embarrassing.
