Chapter 157 Gu Tingye and Mo Lan?
Chapter 157 Gu Tingye and Mo Lan?
When Xu Wenhui talked about this, the expression on Gu Tingye's face immediately froze.
After a long while, he responded with some frustration:
"Yes, you also heard about this?
Forget it, if I don’t keep my father here, I’ll have a place to keep him. I’ve thought about it. Anyway, this Marquis Mansion can’t accommodate Mannia and my two children.
Since there was no hope of passing the imperial examination, I simply took Mannia and the two children with me.
Let’s go to Yangzhou together, to my maternal grandfather’s hometown,
By then, our family of four, the man farming and the woman weaving, will still be living happily! I just said I came to see you if I had something to do, just because I wanted to say goodbye to you! "
After Gu Tingye finished speaking, he saw Xu Wenhui looking at him like a fool,
Immediately he felt a little angry and said angrily:
"Hey Xu Wenhui, what do you mean? Are you trying to laugh at me?"
Xu Wenhui shook his head and pretended to sigh:
"How dare I laugh at the dignified second son of the Gu family? But you are really ambitious. You actually yearn for a life where men farm and women weave. I really didn't expect it.
It seems that today's plea to the officials is in vain. It's better to fulfill the life you long for! "
Gu Tingye was about to get angry when he saw Xu Wenhui was still ridiculing him. When he heard Xu Wenhui's next words, things seemed to change.
Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he asked in disbelief:
"Bo Sheng, did you go to the officials to plead for mercy? What did the officials say?"
Obviously, men farm and women weave is a helpless choice, and Gu Tingye would not do that if there was even a hint of choice!
It was rare to see Gu Tingye so anxious, but Xu Wenhui didn't want to respond in a hurry.
I looked around at the layout of the room and saw that the decoration was average, so I chuckled and said:
"But……"
"Today Shibo invited me to meet with the officials to intercede for you, so the officials have taken back what they said before. From now on, you can take the normal imperial examination.
Now you can rest assured! "
Xu Wenhui saw that Gu Tingye had even called out his eldest brother. Knowing that this boy was really anxious, he stopped worrying and said:
In Gu Tingye's current heart, Gu Yankai, his father, never looked at him seriously. He only knew how to favor his eldest brother Gu Tingyu and other brothers.
How could he go to an official to plead for mercy for himself!
"Then I don't know. Anyway, your father came to my house yesterday to invite me, and today I met the official with him, and that's why the official let go!"
"You are so rich, why can't you find a better place? This place doesn't match your status!"
Xu Wenhui was too lazy to care about Gu Tingye's family affairs and said directly:
Unexpectedly, Gu Tingye was not happy at all after hearing this. Instead, he said in disbelief:
"What? My father invited you? This is impossible, right?"
"Oh, but what? That's your biological father. He must be doing it for your future, otherwise he would have to tell the officials about it!"
"Bosheng, brother Bosheng, brother Bosheng, please tell me quickly. What do you mean by what you just said? Is there still something to be learned about my imperial examination?"
"Oh, this is the place I bought for Grandma Chang to retire in. Besides, if the choice is too luxurious, then the Hou Mansion will find it all at once!" After explaining casually, Gu Tingye couldn't wait to ask again:
As he was talking, Xu Wenhui felt someone was stopping at the door to eavesdrop.
With just a quick guess, I knew it was Zhu Manniang. Aunt Chang couldn't do this.
Thinking of the original story in which Zhu Manniang blocked Mrs. Yu’s residence and forced Yu Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Yu family,
Xu Wenhui suddenly had an idea. He slapped his forehead as if something suddenly occurred to him, and then said:
"By the way, not only is it about the imperial examination, Shibo is also very worried about your marriage. Tell me, you are too. Before you get married, you have an illegitimate wife and a son and a daughter.
Whose noble lady will marry you? "
Gu Tingye was a little touched by Gu Yankai's rare act of fatherly kindness. When he heard Xu Wenhui say this,
Immediately he looked down a little,
"Bosheng, why do you say such things to me? It's not like you don't understand me. I'm the kind of person who cares about status.
So what if I don’t have a famous lady, the worst I can do is not marry her!
It's enough for me to guard Mannia and the two children! "
Xu Wenhui shook his head nonchalantly and looked at Gu Tingye, hating that iron was not enough.
"What you said is wrong. If you go against your parents' wishes, you will be reviled by the world.
Okay, you are a douchebag, you don’t feel it.
But have you thought about your future children? What future do they have?
Parents love their children and have far-reaching plans! "
Seeing Gu Tingye's rare silence, Xu Wenhui continued:
"At the very least, you have to marry a wife. Even if you are a concubine, you have to give your two children their birthright! At the very least, they have to be included in your Gu family's genealogy, right?"
Zhu Manniang is not even a concubine, so the child she gave birth to is naturally the son of a foreign wife.
Not being able to enter the Gu family's genealogy is equivalent to not being recognized by the law, and it is impossible to have any future!
Gu Tingye failed the ranking this time and saw the scenes of wealthy businessmen and small households catching their sons-in-law under the rankings.
He also understands why his grandfather insisted on marrying his mother Bai to the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
Fundamentally, it is a class leap. If his children are not recognized, they will have no future!
Gu Tingye naturally couldn't accept it, so he couldn't help but said:
"I don't know what you are talking about, but look at me now, which family's daughter is willing to marry me! And how many people can accept Mannia?"
Obviously, Gu Tingye is somewhat aware of his infamous reputation. He was not listed in the imperial examination this time. Naturally, he doesn't have much leverage to marry a girl from a good family!
Xu Wenhui was waiting for Gu Tingye's words. Hearing this, he smiled and said:
"I heard that the fourth girl of the Sheng family has a good impression of you, is that right?"
"The fourth girl of the Sheng family?"
Gu Tingye was stunned when he heard this. He knew that Xu Wenhui didn't like Mo Lan very much. Why did he seem to want to bring him and Mo Lan together at this time?
He looked at Xu Wenhui strangely. He really couldn't guess what Xu Wenhui was thinking.
I couldn't help but ask:
"No, Bo Sheng, what do you mean? Are you really talking about the fourth girl of the Sheng family? Mo Lan?"
Xu Wenhui nodded firmly and responded:
"Yes, it's Mo Lan. Why, you don't want to be my brother-in-law?"
Gu Tingye was even more confused when he heard Xu Wenhui's admission.
"No? You made me a little confused. Why is that?"
Xu Wenhui knew what Gu Tingye was wondering about, but he didn't respond and asked directly:
"Just tell me, does my future sister-in-law have a crush on you?"
Gu Tingye thought of Mo Lan Ruoyouruowu's attentiveness before and nodded.
"It seems that there is such a thing...but..."
