Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Chapter 332: New Year Greetings at the Su Mansion

Only then did he realize that he could no longer remember Gu Dashi's original appearance.

That hysterical person had long since become a bubble in memory, disappearing invisibly in Gu Yue's silent change.

Who are you?

Gu Xu lowered his head and moved his face closer.

Gu Yue was unaware of anything. He just stared at the hazy snow and muttered, "This place is not high enough. I think Mount Yi is a good choice. There seems to be a flat area on the top of the mountain. If we build a pavilion, we can see the snow and the fields as far as the eye can see... How wonderful."

He thought for a moment and then said, "The scenery on the plains is still a little bland. Although each has its own merits, I still prefer places with many mountains and beautiful waters... This way it is convenient to develop the tourism economy, and at the very least you can make a living from the mountains. There are no wild animals in the small woods near the village. How much money can you make just by farming?"

Gu Xu smiled: "Why are you still thinking about making money?"

"How can I not think about it? I have worked so hard for the past two years, but the money I earned can't even fill the box that King Shen left for you. How can I help you...investigate your background...overthrow the damn emperor..."

Gu Yue's words were no longer coherent when he reached this point. It was hard to open his eyelids.

Gu Xu looked at him.

The question at the beginning came to my mind again.

He asked softly: "Gu Yue... why are you trying so hard to help me?"

Gu Yue closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Gu Xu was a little disappointed, but soon smiled again.

He held Gu Yue tightly in his arms with one hand, and threw the paper umbrella off the roof with the other hand. Then he turned around, exerted force, and landed lightly on the ground with Gu Yue.

Gu Yue held onto the corner of his clothes tightly.

"I am...useful..." He muttered with his eyes closed.

Gu Xu supported him with one hand, slightly stunned.

Gu Yue's eyelids trembled, and a big tear seeped out from the corner of his eye, rolling onto his clothes and mixing with the snow.

"It's useless..." He muttered again in confusion.

Gu Xu paused, pushed open the door of the Jishiyuan dormitory, and carried him into the warm room.

After removing the cold outer garment, leaving only the inner garment, Gu Xu stuffed the person into the bed. He looked at Gu Yue for a long while, then reached out to lift the corner of the quilt and opened the front of his underwear.

The red mole still remained safely on Gu Yue's chest, but its color became brighter red.

Gu Xu looked a little dazed.

He leaned over, hesitated for a long time, and finally placed a light kiss on the small mole.

Then his ears turned red, and he quickly covered the corner of Gu Yue's quilt and wrapped him up completely.

Their hands were still clasped inside, and Gu Xu rubbed them for a long time.

……

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Yue slowly woke up.

There were still faint sounds of firecrackers outside, but his face looked a little bad. He sat up, buried his face in the quilt, and relaxed for a long time.

He hasn't had this nightmare for many years and he's still a little uncomfortable with it.

After rubbing his face a few times through the quilt, Gu Yue took a deep breath, raised his head, and quickly adjusted his mentality.

He got out of bed, dressed, and washed himself with hot water that someone had prepared for him. It was probably Gu Xu, who knew his biological clock very well, and the water temperature was just right.

Gu Yue put on the new red dress that had been made years ago and combed his hair into a crown - he was already very skilled at this and didn't need anyone's help.

Today is New Year's Day.

Originally, the custom here was to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but Gu Yue and Gu Xu had to leave immediately after the Lunar New Year to return to Liuli Town to worship their parents, so they went earlier.

I also sent out visiting invitations in advance, and the family to whom I was about to give New Year's greetings naturally happily agreed.

When I went out, I saw Gu Xu standing in the yard, holding something in one hand and stuffing a red hawthorn fruit into the snowman's eye socket with the other hand.

"Where did the snowman come from?" Gu Yue was confused.

"I just packed it." Gu Xu packed the hawthorn berries and handed the cashmere coat in his arms to Gu Yue: "Is it ready? Let's go now."

"It's a really nice stack." Gu Yue praised, "Let's go."

The two walked out the door.

The most suspicious Gu Ping had not been seen for several days. Previously, he would occasionally show up in front of them to show his presence. Perhaps he knew it was all in vain.

Gu Yue counted the gifts again, then got on the carriage with Gu Xu.

After the Chinese New Year, people usually visit relatives. Gu Dashi didn't have many relatives in Luoyang, so he only had to visit one family on this day.

At the residence of Old Master Su.

As Gu Xu's maternal grandfather, Old Master Su was not implicated in the incident involving Prince Shen, so Gu Xu should have paid him a visit. No one on either side could break off contact because of what happened back then, otherwise it would be heartless and unfilial.

The snow had stopped. People were setting up stalls on the streets of the city, mostly performing arts, and people in new clothes gathered in circles around them, making the scene very lively.

The snow on the road was crushed into slush by the passing carriages, and it looked a bit dirty. But when you get to the residential area where the first-rank officials live, the roads are obviously clean and tidy. They are all swept by the servants of each family early in the morning. The red firecracker skins are mixed in the snow, which is particularly beautiful.

Gu Yue saw the gate of Su Mansion from afar.

It was really eye-catching: the Su Mansion alone occupied an entire street, with an imposing gate connected to the courtyard walls on both sides and stretching out for a long time, with a big red lantern hung every five steps.

The gate of the Su Mansion was open, and a servant in a thick red coat stood respectfully in front of the door. Seeing the carriage of the Duke of Dunxin's Mansion approaching from afar, these people were orderly, some went back to report the news, and some had already come down the steps to greet them, standing in a very neat line.

Shi San and Wu Yan, who were driving the carriage, jumped off, put down the pedals, and welcomed Gu Yue and Gu Xu to get off. The servant of the Su Mansion took over the carriage, compared the gifts with Wu Yan, and drove to the back door.

As soon as Gu Yue stood firm, he looked up and saw a large group of people standing on the steps.

He was shocked. When did so many people come?

He had seen the three leading figures before, and they were the three sons of Old Master Su. But this was too much ceremony, such a high-ranking official personally brought his family to the door to pick someone up, it really showed that he was very important!

Su Muying, the eldest son of the Su family, walked down the stairs. He did not make the same mistake as the old housekeeper did that day. Instead, he bowed to Gu Yue and said, "Master Gu, the Su family is here. Welcome to meet you, Master."

The people behind all saluted, but it was not a big salute.

An earl without a fief would not be welcomed by the Su family on his knees.

Gu Yue hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Master Su is really polite."

Su Muying was very polite and showed a very intimate attitude, inviting Gu Yue and Gu Xu to his house. On the way from the gate to the main hall, he said a lot of words thanking him for raising his younger sister's child. Gu Yue didn't know how to respond, and could only say "It's my duty, it's my duty, it's not my duty".

Entering the huge main hall of the Su Mansion, Old Master Su was sitting on a small couch in the middle. Seeing Gu Yue and Gu Xu being escorted in, he immediately stood up tremblingly with the help of a cane.

The old man's tears suddenly flowed down.
