Half way generals don't marry

When the three of them came to the restaurant, Gu Yushan and Gu Rong had been waiting for a long time.

It was rare for them to see Gu Yushan not wearing a military uniform. Even though he was wearing a dark blue gold-embroidered gown and mandarin jacket, it could not conceal the majesty of the general of Yueling City.

Before they were seated, Jiang Yizhou and Gu Cheng also came to the restaurant.

Gu Cheng hugged a pot of saliva, the wine was mellow and strong, and it had been kept in the wine cellar for decades, and ordinary people would lose consciousness after a few drinks.

Fortunately, Gu Yushan and Izawae Yizhou were all able to drink alcohol, and it would be too easy to cause trouble if they drank this saliva, but Gu Rong also allowed them to have a few drinks during the family banquet.

Jiang Yizhou holds a pot of Pear Luobai in his hand. This is brewed from active spring water and good medicinal materials when pear blossoms are falling in spring.Although it has the taste of alcohol, but the pulp is tender, soft and sweet, nourishing and nourishing, it is specially brewed for Gu Mingshan who is weak.

Ye Hongliu and Gu Cheng naturally wanted to taste the mouthwatering fragrance.But because of his young age and his drinking capacity, he could only get Gu Mingshan's Li Luobai.

In fact, the two people's drinking capacity has been tempered in the wine cellar, but due to the limited stock of saliva, the two have never dared to make mistakes in the wine cellar.

Of course, it's just that I dare not make mistakes when I am sober.I am afraid that only Jiang Yizhou and Lingo know about the fact that they repeatedly offended Salixiangchen when they were not arguing.

This saliva-scented wine was so strong that after only a few sips, the two became inseparable.

Such a precious saliva is so fragrant, these two people drank it in the chaos, and it was impossible to talk about tasting it.

Regarding the matter of drinking capacity, even though Gu Cheng and Ye Hongliu had the courage to do so, they did not dare to "bring the truth" in front of Gu Rong.

After several people saluted, Ye Hongliu helped Gu Mingshan to sit on Gu Rong's right side; Jiang Yizhou put Li Luobai in front of Gu Mingshan, and sat next to Gu Mingshan's right side; Jing Ze sat down on Gu Yushan's left side, and Gu Cheng Divide the saliva into the jugs in front of each other, and then took a seat on the left side of Izawa.

Finally, Ye Hongliu, who was standing aside, dared to sit between Jiang Yizhou and Gu Cheng.

It's just that Ye Hongliu's sitting posture is very strange. He only sits on the edge of the chair, leaning forward, half-bending at the corner of the dining table, with his hands under the dining table carefully against the baffle for support, maintaining his posture with great difficulty.

Gu Rong picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, glanced casually at Ye Hongliu, and asked as a matter of routine: "Yushan, I heard that the red lotus in the Red Lotus Pond was stolen. Did you catch the thief?"

When Ye Hongliu heard Gu Rong's mention of Honglian, she trembled in fright.Ben had just touched the edge of the chair, and almost fell off the chair this time.

Regarding the red lotus matter, Gu Yushan ordered the soldiers to block the news, and neither Jingzawa nor Gu Cheng knew about it.

Jiang Yizhou also went to listen to Xiangge by chance, and saw Honglian in Shen Liangyu's room.In addition, when I went to Xizhai to visit Ye Hongliu with Lingo, I saw the defeated red lotus in the pool in the courtyard of Xizhai, so I roughly guessed it.

Seeing Ye Hongliu trembling so much, Gu Cheng didn't know why Gu Rong mentioned this matter, and he didn't know what kind of relationship Ye Hongliu had in the middle, so he just pushed Ye Hongliu's trembling under the table. arm, winking and wanting to ask what's going on.

With Gu Cheng's push, Ye Hongliu, who had been supporting very hard, immediately lost his balance, and his body instantly tilted up.

Seeing the situation, Jiang Yizhou immediately reached under the table and grabbed Ye Hongliu's arm and gently pulled it, regaining the lost balance.After Yehong Polygonum stabilized, he gave it away.

Ye Hongliao, who was sweating so hard at this moment, slowly turned his head and squeezed out a grateful smile deformed by hard work.

Gu Yushan refilled the wine glass for Gu Rong, glanced at Ye Hongliu, and replied, "Father, the thief ran fast and has not been caught yet."

"Oh?"

Gu Rong stared at Ye Hongliu intently at this moment, and asked, "Is there any little thief that your general can't catch?"

Gu Yushan was blessed, and said: "The little thief only took the red lotus, he didn't steal a single thread from the house, and he didn't hurt the lives of the people in the house, so he is an elegant thief after all."

He raised his volume again and said, "Perhaps he borrowed Yu Shan's red lotus as a gift to his sweetheart. If so, it would be considered a beautiful thing. Yu Shan will also spare that little thief and stop pursuing him."

Gu Rong glanced at Gu Yushan, and could see that he was interceding for the little thief, so he didn't say anything else.He just grimaced and didn't touch the full wine again.

Seeing that Gu Rong didn't ask any more questions, Ye Hongliu secretly breathed a sigh of relief before he dared to raise his head a little.When I looked towards Gu Rong, seeing his gloomy face, I suddenly felt that the aftershock was not over, so I immediately shrank my neck in fright, and lowered my head again.

"Red Polygonum."

"Yes, General."

Ye Hongliu, who had just lowered her head, heard Gu Yushan's shout, and immediately stood up in a military posture and responded.

Ye Honglian got up too quickly and too hard, tearing the wound painfully, and pushed the chair behind him to rub against the floor with a "stab" sound and move back.

Hearing the piercing rubbing sound, Gu Rong's already sullen face became darker.

Polygonum foliage stood up straight.It took a long time to hide the expression distorted by the pain.But Gu Yushan didn't have any other instructions, Ye Hongliu felt it was strange, so he rolled his eyes and looked at Gu Yushan.

I saw Gu Yushan's left hand resting on the table, but he didn't even look at himself.The index finger tapped lightly on the table top and bottom, as if—as if to signal the pulse.

"sit down."

"Yes, General."

Gu Yushan sat down in a cold voice.

After Ye Hongliu responded subconsciously, she sat down slowly, also supporting the lower baffle with her hands, and carefully leaning on the edge of the chair.

Just now when she got up, the seat moved back a little, and Ye Hongliu didn't dare to pull her hands towards her when she sat down, and now her body was even more bent, as if she was crouching forward.

"Red Polygonum."

"Yes, General."

Ye Hongliu, who had just touched the chair, immediately stood up and stood in a military posture.Just bent down, this time, the pain coming from behind is not just superimposed.

Yehong Polygonum, who couldn't take it anymore, gritted her teeth and took a few deep breaths of air after answering, suppressing the cockroach that had rushed to her throat.

After a while, after Ye Hongliu stabilized his mood, Gu Yushan still didn't give any instructions.

Ye Hongliu bravely looked at Gu Yushan. At this moment, Gu Yushan was leisurely rubbing the surface of the wine glass with his index finger, as if he wasn't the one who gave the order just now.

"sit down."

"Yes, General."

Polygonum Ye Hong still sat down slowly in response to the order, and his posture was quite strange and laborious.

"Red Polygonum."

"Yes, General."

……

Yehong Liao stood up and sat down like this; just sat down and stood up again, repeated the first time, and the pain was already unbearable.

As August was getting colder, Ye Hongyao couldn't stop sweating from his face.The knuckles of both hands were blue and white, and they tore the robe vigorously.

Ye Hongliao, whose nerves were eroded by pain and commands, had no idea what Gu Yushan was going to do and why.Just follow the instructions absolutely.

This has been repeated several times, and everyone present has already seen that Gu Yushan is deliberately punishing Ye Hongliu.

Izawa frowned slightly, observing Gu Yushan's every move.Gu Yushan acted as if nothing had happened from the beginning to the end, as if the order that caused Ye Hongliu's excruciating pain was as normal and harmless as a breath; Gu Mingshan only sipped the wine by himself, his calm demeanor seemed to be watching Playing chess on the side of the road; Jiang Yizhou's expression was even more unbelievable, and he still had the usual slight smile.

Seeing him in such pain, Gu Cheng was anxious but dared not speak.The elder brothers didn't say a word, and Gu Cheng didn't know what to do.

"sit down."

No. 11 times, Gu Yushan still spit out two words as calmly as water.It's just that the finger of the whirling wine glass moved to the left arm, and the index finger and middle finger were intermittently lit.

But this time, Ye Hongliu did not immediately respond to the order to sit down like the previous ten times.

Gu Yushan, who hadn't looked at Ye Hongliu since just now, raised his eyes and remained silent.

"General... General..."

Ye Hongliu lowered her head, carefully raised her eyes to look at Gu Yushan who was looking at her.He raised his eyes a little, and the sweat from his forehead stuck to his raised eyelashes along the tip of his eyebrows.

Yehong Polygonum's eyelashes are thick and curled up, like a fence to intercept the sweat that was about to slip down.

Ye Hongliu's vision became blurred, but she didn't dare to wipe it with her hands, so she had to blink desperately a few times.Beads of sweat that were blocked were thrown down, flowed down the nose, slipped through the corner of the half-bitten mouth, gathered under the trembling chin due to pain, and dripped quietly.

That appearance, the grievance and pain are unbearable and dare not speak, pitiful.

"Do you remember what I said?"

Gu Yushan was still calm.

Ye Hongliu had already used this trick when he was in the lobby.At that time, I was soft-hearted and spared him, but this time, I was so pitiful again, so I repeated my old trick.

Ye Hongli buried her head and nodded.He remembered what Gu Yushan said, Gu Yushan said: "When father wants you to sit down, don't speculate and beg for mercy like today."

But, this is the general you want him to sit on... And now, Ye Hongliao really can't take it anymore.

Yehong Polygonum buried her head deeper.Biting her bruised lips, she got the courage to squeeze out a few words from between her teeth: "Big... big brother... red Polygonum... hurts...", before the words fell to the ground, the tears of no future rolled down. on the ground.

Gu Yushan obviously felt that the corners of his mouth curled up consciously.

Jiang Yizhou and Gu Mingshan caught this smug smile privately on the corner of his mouth like they were catching a thief.

He called me big brother?

"Can you say that again."

Gu Yushan's words obviously raised the volume, but it didn't mean to blame at all.

But Ye Hongliu, who kept his head down, couldn't figure out the real meaning behind these words at all, and didn't dare to guess.

He thought that Gu Yushan was angry because he begged for mercy, and the tears that had just slipped to his lips were frightened and flung onto his clothes.

"I said, say it again."

Seeing that he looked like a frightened deer, Gu Yushan thought he was self-righteously guessing his intentions, so he resumed his normal volume.

Is it that difficult to hear you call Big Brother again?

The smile that appeared on his own initiative was also dispelled by this clumsy little thief.

It wasn't just Ye Hongliu who misinterpreted Gu Yushan's meaning.Gu Cheng, who was sitting on pins and needles beside him, couldn't bear it anymore, stood up with a bang, and stood in a military posture with Ye Hongliu's eyes, begging: "General, Hongliu's injury has not healed yet..."

"I know."

Gu Yushan's three words cut off Gu Cheng's pleading.

I know.

These three words made Ye Hongliu's heart prick.He raised his head blankly, this time it was no longer pleading, but just looked at Gu Yushan blankly.

Tears swirled in his eyes, Ye Honglio held back, and refused to let them flow down no matter what.

"All right."

Gu Rong glanced at Gu Cheng and Ye Hongliu, picked up the glass of wine on the table and drank it down, coughed lightly and said: "General, this is my family banquet in Gu's residence, where is the general from? How to be an older brother, and don’t know how to teach him well, he’s becoming more and more unruly.”

Gu Yushan immediately got up and saluted, "Yes, father taught me that."

Izawa, Jiang Yizhou, and Gu Mingshan immediately stood up and saluted.

"Mingshan knows his mistake."

"It's Izawa's fault."

"It's all in the same boat, isn't it?"

Gu Rong sat on the chair, frowned and looked at the few who got up and admitted their mistakes, and his eyes fixed on Gu Yushan.Instant relief.

Gu Yushan did this just now, but he was waiting for him here.

On the surface, he was punishing Ye Hongliu in front of his face because of the Honglian matter, but in fact, he played a trick to ask him to spare Ye Hongliu himself.

Judging by the attitudes of these people admitting their mistakes, they must be coordinating with Gu Yushan in this play.

And the only ones watching the play were himself and Gu Cheng who forgot to think because of his anxiety.

Of course, there is also Ye Hongpolygonum, who is singing this opera.

Furthermore, Gu Yushan waited for himself to stop, because he wanted to resolve the knot in Ye Hongliu's family law.

"Sit down now."

Gu Rong glanced at Gu Yushan, "If you don't sit, they will have to stand with you."

Can I still eat this meal?

"Yes, father."

Gu Yushan took his seat, followed by Gu Mingshan, Izawa, and Jiang Yizhou.But Gu Cheng and Ye Hongliu were left standing.

Ye Hongliu was not allowed to take a seat, but Gu Cheng was also with her.

"Acheng, you two go to the kitchen to help Uncle Kang."

Gu Yushan filled Gu Rong's glass and said.

"Yes, General."

Gu Cheng answered loudly, just turned around and then backed away, saying: "Yes, big brother."

Gu Yushan nodded. In this regard, Gu Cheng is much more enlightened than Ye Hongliu.

Seeing that Ye Hongliu was still frozen in place, Gu Yushan reprimanded, "Why are you still standing there!"

Only then did Ye Hongliu regain his composure, wiped the tears on the back of his hand, and said, "Yes, General." He bowed his head and followed Gu Cheng out of the restaurant.

Gu Yushan could only sigh helplessly.

Gu Yunkang, who had just served the dishes, saw Gu Cheng and Ye Hongliao coming to the kitchen, and saw Ye Hongliao's face with tears, he handed the plate in his hand to Gu Cheng, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Cheng looked at Ye Hongliu, and roughly explained what happened.

Gu Yunkang told Gu Cheng to serve the food, and specifically told him to walk slowly on the way, while pulling Ye Hongliu into the kitchen.

Gu Yunkang wiped his tears for him and said: "Then the grown-up will cry every now and then, won't you say it hurts?"

"I said it..."

Seeing Gu Yunkang, Ye Hongliu felt even more aggrieved, sniffled his nose twice and cried, "But...but the general..."

"General? This is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Where is the general?"

With such a younger brother who only recognizes himself as a general, Gu Yunkang feels Gu Yushan's sadness at this moment.

Ye Hongliu didn't understand what Gu Yunkang meant, so she stopped crying, but couldn't stop sobbing to get his explanation.

"At the family banquet, he, Gu Yushan, was the eldest son of the Gu family and your eldest brother. Although I don't know what mistakes you made, shouldn't the eldest brother be the father and discipline the father? If the one who teaches you is Master, I'm afraid you don't stand here and cry now."

Gu Yunkang saw that Ye Hongliu didn't understand what he heard, and added another sentence: "If Uncle Kang's guess is correct, if you answered "Big Brother" the first time, you wouldn't have to suffer such pain."

"Uncle Kang..."

Ye Hongliu was confused when he heard it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, and he couldn't help sobbing: "Uncle Kang, why is it that the master doesn't like me when he is also a child of the Gu family? Why does the master think that no matter what I do? Didn’t do well? Why is the general’s brother, but the general doesn’t like me? Why does he insist on me marrying He Yi even though he knows I don’t want to get married? Uncle Kang, what’s wrong with Red Polygonum?”

The more Ye Hongliao talked, the more wronged she became, and the more she talked, the more she couldn't control it, and she wiped her nose and tears indiscriminately.After thinking about it, Xisu prepared the clothes for him, and he was reluctant to rub them any longer, so he let the snot and tears flow down his face.

Gu Yunkang listened to Ye Hongliu's cry without saying a word, listening to him confiding to himself the grievance and incomprehension in his heart.

Ye Hongliu in front of her was sobbing and crying, just wanting to ask for an explanation for what she had endured.Not trying to be fair, he just wanted to know why.

He is like a child who is neither loved by his father nor cared for by his elder brother.This child silently endured all this fundamental inequality, but he could only bear it alone.

No one told him why, and he didn't dare to ask.

From Lu Wenchong's sacrifice to saving Gu Cheng from the family law, from being almost beaten to death by Gu Yushan to being arranged for a marriage contract that he had to obey.In all of this, Ye Hongli was helpless and had no choice, he was overwhelmed and breathless.

Why did Gu Rong refuse to recognize him, and even refused to give him his surname?Why did Gu Yushan treat him like this, with no choice between his own life and marriage?

Gu Yunkang couldn't answer.

He didn't know, and couldn't possibly know.

The lord of Yueling City, the general of the Gu family army, Gu Yunkang couldn't understand their thoughts at all.

Just like when he knew that Zhao Menghe was suspected, Gu Rong still kept him in Yueling City; like knowing that the person Gu Yushan was protecting was innocent, Gu Rong still arrested him; like knowing that Gu Yushan couldn't stand two hundred Gu Rong still punished him with the army stick.

Just like everything Ye Hongliu can't bear now.

Gu Yunkang wiped Ye Hongliu's runny nose and tears, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Hongliu, Uncle Kang can't answer your question. Maybe when you become the lord of Yueling City, one of the great generals of the Gu family army When you do, you will understand.”

Ye Hongliu was even more puzzled by Gu Yunkang's words.He stared at Gu Yunkang in a daze, stopped sobbing, and couldn't help choking: "Uncle Kang, I don't want to be a city lord, let alone a general. I just want to know why?"

Gu Yunkang shook his head helplessly. He wanted to enlighten him, but he didn't expect that the more he explained, the more wronged he would feel.

Turning around, he took Ye Hongliu's favorite mooncake stuffed with lotus paste, handed it to Ye Hongliu, and said, "I don't think you will have anything to eat tonight, why not fill your stomach here first, and think about why later?"

Ye Hongliu's eyes had been hooked by the mooncakes long ago, she picked up the plate with both hands with choked up, grabbed a piece and stuffed it into her mouth.

Seeing how he was eating, Gu Yunkang suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

Those who are also children of the Gu family, who knows their fate?

Ye Hongliu was eating the second one when Gu Cheng came back with the food.Seeing that Ye Hongliu was devouring the moon cakes, he felt relieved a lot.

Gu Yunkang also handed Gu Cheng a few mooncakes, stuffed with bean paste, Gu Cheng happily took them, and ate them standing side by side with Ye Hongliu.

While eating, Ye Hongli took out a square towel and carefully wrapped two mooncakes filled with lotus seed paste.

Xisu also likes lotus seed paste.

He also took a piece of red bean paste from Gu Cheng's hand next to him, and a piece of green bamboo leaf from the table beside him, and wrapped them up.
