The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 875 Zheng Lun's Marriage

Gu Chengyu glanced at Zhu Pang, who had a playful smile, "Oh? Did it say that I got some kind of errand?"

Zhu Pang looked around and saw Ming Yan was in the house.After thinking about it, he seemed to feel that Ming Yan was not an outsider.

Then he asked, "Is it for the treasure map?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Chengyu was also taken aback.

Unexpectedly, these people even knew about the treasure map, and even Zhu Pang. Didn't all the officials in the capital know about it?
Gu Chengyu thought so, but kept his face on the surface.

"Where did this come from? Since you said just now that I received a secret mission from the emperor, it is inconvenient for me to reveal it to you. Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing."

Gu Chengyu didn't want the friendship between the two to become impure so early, Zhu Pang came to find him not long after he came back.

Needless to say, the elders in Zhu Pang's house must have told him.For what, needless to say?
"Yes! Don't ask if you don't ask. Thanks to the fact that I knew you were sick, I was still so anxious. Who knew that I couldn't see you even when I came to your house. Do you know how worried I am about you?"

Zhu Pang's expression was unusually serious. Although Jinyu didn't admit it, he didn't deny it either, did he?

He was forced to come here by his father, although he wanted to see Gu Chengyu at first, but he didn't want to come to Gu's mansion with such a purpose.

The friendship between him and Gu Chengyu is very sincere, and he doesn't want it to be too utilitarian.

But people live in this world, but they are always so involuntary.His father didn't want to plot against Gu Chengyu, he just wanted to know more about the court's movements!

As for whether Gu Chengyu got the treasure map, he didn't want to ask, and he couldn't ask.

Looking into his sincere eyes, Gu Chengyu felt a little moved.

"Cong Guang, thank you very much!" Gu Chengyu stepped forward and patted Zhu Pang on the shoulder.

Coming to this dynasty, he gained friendship and family affection.He felt that even if he didn't have an extreme minister in the end, he would have no regrets.

Zhu Pang's eyes were moist, and his throat seemed to be blocked by some foreign object.

"Cough! I'm so worried about you, even the gray hair is coming out, so you have to make it up to me."

Zhu Pang turned his face away, not daring to look directly at Gu Chengyu.But Gu Chengyu saw his wet eyes and knew he was embarrassed.

"Okay! Don't you like my green lotus leaf plate? Here it is for you."

This lotus leaf plate is very delicate. The lotus leaf is carved with green jadeite, and there is a frog on it. Gu Chengyu used the jadeite in the space to learn how to carve it by himself.

Although the engraving is not as good as those masters, it is also very interesting. Zhu Pang has liked it for a long time.

"That's what you like. I don't want to steal people's favors. I don't care. If you want to invite me to Juxianglou for a good meal, I haven't been there for a long time."

Zhu Pang glanced at Gu Chengyu, a gentleman does not take what others like, he is not a person who is not ignorant.

"Going to Juxianglou, did I stop you? I have wanted to give you this ornament for a long time. It was just to tease you before. If you really don't want it, then I will give it to Zheng Lun. He I asked last time."

"Hey~ Who said I don't want it anymore? Give it to me, give it to me."

Zhu Pang suddenly became anxious, thinking that he would exchange it with Gu Chengyu for a decoration.

He and Gu Chengyu often exchange jade and ornaments, neither of them is the kind of person who likes to care.

"You're already married, why are you still so childish?" Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes at him and joked with a smile.

Zhu Pang blushed suddenly, and he was unusually shy.

When Gu Chengyu saw this, he knew that the young couple was doing well, and the big stone he had been keeping in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"It's good to hear that you didn't make trouble anymore. The rumors are really unbelievable."

After all, Zhu Pang still sighed, although his wife is not beautiful, she is still a beauty.

It's not the pockmarked face that was rumored outside. I don't know who is so hateful, and spread the rumors outside, ruining his wife's reputation.

"So in the future, don't listen to the wind and rain, but use your brain to distinguish."

Gu Chengyu shook his head with a smile, this Zhu Pang was still a little boyish.

"Yeah! Hey, Zheng Lun said we're kissing each other." Zhu Pang suddenly had a gossipy face and smiled a bit wretchedly.

"Oh? Whose girl are you talking about?" Gu Chengyu immediately became interested when he heard that Zheng Lun had kissed her.

"It's the concubine's daughter of Hu Maoshen, the censor of the right capital, and she's doing four things at home!"

"Oh? What is this marriage?" Gu Chengyu was a little surprised. With Zheng Lun's mother's enthusiasm, she probably wouldn't find a concubine to be his wife, right?
Although Dingnanhou's mansion has gone downhill in recent years, and Zheng Lun's father's house is still a concubine's house, but Zheng Lun's mother's vision is quite high.

He wanted to say that a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family would be his daughter-in-law, so that his son's official career would be more secure and faster.

For Gu Chengyu's surprise, Zhu Pang certainly knew the reason.

He and Zheng Lun had known each other long before Gu Chengyu, and they had a good relationship back then.

Zheng Lun's mother's thoughts, Zheng Lun also said in front of him twice before, with a hint of complaint in her words.

Because Zheng Lun's mother seemed to be in a daze, and she insisted on looking for the daughters of those aristocratic families.

But people have better choices, who would take a fancy to you, the second son of the concubine of the Hou Mansion?

In the future, the Hou Mansion will be separated, and Zheng Lun's father will not be an official, so the family will have to rely on Zheng Lun and his elder brother to support their dignity.

"Why do you agree when you are Mrs. Zheng? Although the girl is a concubine, her aunt gave birth to her with a dystocia. The girl was brought up by her aunt since she was a child. The aunt had two sons and a daughter at her knees. The girl has already been married. The aunt treats the girl pretty well, and she is considered a half-daughter."

Zhu Pang smiled and told the inside story of this matter.

"Oh~" Gu Chengyu suddenly realized, but in this way, this marriage can be regarded as Zheng Lun's high rise, this is an indisputable fact.

Hu Maoshen is now a senior official of the second rank, which is not a small official position.

If that girl gets along well with her aunt, Zheng Lun will be able to rely on his father-in-law's relationship in the future.

Not to mention that he is like a fish in water in the officialdom, but at any rate, for the sake of his father-in-law, he always wants to give Zheng Lun some face.

The father-in-law helped to raise some more points, because of Hu Maoshen's relationship in the court, it is impossible for Zheng Lun to get along badly in the future.

"It's a good thing, and it's according to Mrs. Zheng's wishes."

Gu Chengyu was also happy for Zheng Lun. In such a dynasty, free love was impossible.

On the basis of unfree love, the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are the iron wheels that cannot be changed.

Finding a wife who is helpful to a man's official career is also the pursuit of those scholar-bureaucrats nowadays.

The ancients believed in marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, not only referring to the virtuousness of the wife, but also including the wife's family background and her status in her natal family.

Zheng Lun married Hu Maoshen's daughter, which can be regarded as a family marriage.

"Cough! It's just a little bad." Zhu Pang hid his smile, a little embarrassed.

"How to say?" Gu Chengyu looked at Zhu Pang suspiciously, could it be that there was something wrong with that girl?
