After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 112 I'm All For You

Gongsun family.

Gongsun Hui was organizing manuscripts for his brother in his study.

Those manuscripts are all stamped with the seal "Xiling" and were obviously written by Lin Xi.

Drawn above are decomposed schematic diagrams of various designs, such as fire pits, toilet pipes, sewers, etc.

When the Lin family built a new house, Lin Xi left the job of inviting people to Lin Wushang, and Lin Wushang invited Gongsun Ye.

At first Gongsun Ye didn't take this project seriously and didn't even want to lead the team himself. It was just a country family building a new house. Did he, the heir of the Mohist family, need to personally take action?
Isn't it overkill?
Until he saw the design drawings of Xiling. There were many designs on the drawings that he had never heard of or seen before. He was so happy that he agreed to take action.

During the construction process, even if he copied the design drawings, he still encountered many problems.

Through the middleman Lin Shizi, he was able to communicate smoothly with the designer Xiling.

But there were some parts that he still didn't quite understand even after seeing the exploded schematic diagram of the design.

It happened that one time his sister Gongsun Hui was cleaning the study for him and saw the manuscript. She understood at a glance what he didn't understand.

Relying on his sister's guidance from time to time, he finally completed the small project that he originally looked down upon.

Gongsun Ye felt that this was not very honorable, and he never mentioned it to the outside world.

Unfortunately, what he did could not be hidden from Lin Wushang's intelligence network. If he knew about it, Lin Xi would naturally know about it.

This is why she is sure that Gongsun Hui can replace Gongsun Ye.

Gongsun Hui gently stroked the manuscripts with a loving gesture. This house was built thanks to her contribution.

I really want to see with my own eyes what the house will look like after it is completed.

It must be beautiful.

Although the house is not big, it is well thought out and it will definitely be very comfortable to live in.

Back in her room, Gongsun Hui took out a rattan suitcase from the bottom of the cabinet. There were several pieces of clothes stacked on top of the suitcase, and a wooden box the size of a pallet was hidden underneath.

She opened the wooden box, and inside were puzzle pieces carved from wood.

It was made according to the design drawings drawn by Xiling and reduced in size.

The puzzle pieces of the house have almost been carved, and now only a pavilion remains.

Gongsun Hui took out a toolbox hidden under the bed, took out a carving knife and a piece of wood, and planned to carve the pavilion today.

The hard work paid off, and in the evening, she finally carved the small pavilion.

Gongsun Hui let out a long breath, put down the carving knife and stretched out.

At night, she hid in the tent and spliced ​​the small modules together with the faint light of the candlestick.

The moment the last piece of the puzzle was inserted into the tenons, a miniature model of the house appeared in front of her.

Gongsun Hui felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

She actually recreated this house!
So, she is no worse than her brother, right?

When she lay down, Gongsun Hui looked at the miniature house placed beside the bed and fell asleep with a satisfied smile.

"You are a girl who is about to get married. If you sleep until midnight and still don't get up, when you go to your husband's house, people may point their fingers at me and scold me for not educating you well!"

"What is this? Okay, you are hiding and getting these wood again? You are a girl, what can't you do? You have to compete with your elder brother. Can you compare with your elder brother?
"Dalang will be the noble son of the Mo family in the future. What about you? Once you get married, you will belong to another family. What's the use of doing this? You might as well embroider a few more handkerchiefs and make a few pairs of shoes."

Mrs. Gongsun broke into her daughter's room and couldn't help but scolded her. She also ordered the maid to take the model of the house to the kitchen and burn it.Gongsun Hui worked on the puzzle very late last night, so he got up late. His head was still groggy, and he heard his mother scolding him.

Her ears were about to get calluses from the previous words, but she didn't care. She pulled up the quilt, covered her head and continued to sleep.

But when she heard her mother asking the maid to take away her achievements and burn them, she couldn't help but lift up the quilt and rush to snatch the things back.

"Mom, what are you doing? Give it back to me."

"Look at what you look like with disheveled hair! Get up quickly, wash up, and get dressed up. I will take you out later to meet Mrs. Cheng Wu."

Mrs. Gongsun turned a deaf ear to her daughter's request.

Gongsun Hui chased him out and watched helplessly as the maid threw the hard work he had spent several months into the kitchen stove hole.

She wanted to fish it out, but it was too late.

The flames had already devoured the wooden sculptures.

She felt that her heart was being burned on the fire just like those wooden sculptures, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Mother Hui, didn't you hear what I said? I asked you to freshen up. What are you doing here? It's so smoky..."

Gongsun Hui suddenly turned around, tears bursting out of his eyes, and he burst out.

"You want me to marry into the Cheng family so that you can squeeze into the circle of the aristocratic family, but Mrs. Cheng Wu doesn't look down on our Gongsun family at all, let alone me. You are busy here and there, but you are warm to others and cold to others. It’s just a butt, what’s the use!”

"Snapped!"

Gongsun Hui's head was hit sideways, and his already disheveled hair covered his face and fell messily in front of him.

Mrs. Gongsun: "I worked hard for ten months to conceive and give birth to you, and this is how you repay me? Huh? If you don't do female celebrities, you don't read the female precepts, and you do those unseemly things all day long, how can you be from a good family? Is your daughter like you?
"Who am I working so hard for? Do you think I want to warm up to someone else's butt? It's all for you! As long as you marry into the Cheng family, you will enjoy endless wealth and wealth in the future. Why can't you be considerate? Where is my mother’s heart!”

Gongsun Hui closed his eyes and wanted to retort, is it really for me?
It's obviously just for my brother!
She overheard her parents discussing privately, saying that by marrying her to the Cheng family, her brother's future would no longer have to worry about. Then the Cheng family could recommend her brother to become an official in the court, and her family would be able to change their family.

From "worker" to "scholar".

But she suddenly didn't want to say anything and just wanted to be alone for a while.

Seeing her daughter silently walking past her and returning to her room, Mrs. Gongsun felt panicked for no reason, as if she was about to lose her daughter.

She followed him subconsciously, but was almost hit in the nose by the door that slammed shut.

Mrs. Gongsun was angry and banged the door vigorously, "Hui Niang! Open the door for me. I'll say a few words to you and you'll be embarrassed by me? Huh? Do you still take me as a mother in your eyes? Gongsun Hui, do you hear me? Open the door for me!"

However, the door was always closed, just like Gongsun Hui's closed heart. No matter how hard she knocked, it would never open even a little bit.

"Madam, there is a Qin girl coming outside. She says she is from the Changguo Duke's mansion." The concierge came to report.

Mrs. Gongsun was confused: "Changuo Duke's Mansion? Please come in quickly."

In the eyes of aristocratic families, the Changguo Duke's Mansion is considered a nouveau riche, but in the eyes of ordinary families like the Gongsun family, it is also out of reach.

Although Mrs. Gongsun was confused about how someone could come to the Changguo Duke's Palace since her family had no contact with the Changguo Duke's Palace, she still felt that she should invite people in.

After thinking about it, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and greet you personally."

After holding up her hairpin and straightening her clothes and cuffs, Mrs. Gongsun went to the gate in a dignified manner and welcomed Miss Qin in.

Miss Qin is Qin Xue. She came to invite Miss Gongsun Hui on the order of the prince.
