Lucky's Rebirth

Over the years, because the old wife's temper has become more and more unreasonable, Gu Yu, the head of the Gu family, has been resting in the study outside. The two sons can't see their father's long nights and sleepless nights, so they often send some beautiful maids. There are no concubines and concubines who can't figure it out, and there is no psychological barrier to send a few women to relieve father's boredom.

It's just that Gu Yujie is used to herself. At such an old age, she can't be lustful if she wants to. It's just that the older a person is, the more he likes to look at younger faces. It seems that after a long time, he can lose a few years out of thin air. Young women, he was looking at them not with the desire of a man, but with the feeling of the passage of time. Gu Yu's favorite was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, who would be kept by his side for three or four years, and after enjoying the red sleeves Xiang, when you reach the age, it is also a merit to give a considerable dowry to go out.

Over time, the position of the maid next to Gu Yu has attracted all the maidservants in the mansion. Not everyone is eager to reach the sky in one step. Compared with being an inferior aunt, the maidservant outside is the best destination in the hearts of those maidservants. .With this kind of thinking, serving Gu Yuqi is naturally more dedicated. With this way out for the servants of Gu's mansion, there will be fewer people who are distracted.

In the end, it can be said that everyone is happy.

Gu Ke took the servant and went straight to his father's yard, quietly without causing any disturbance.

When he arrived outside the study room, Gu Yu hadn't gone to bed yet. The old man didn't sleep much, and when Chaozhong came in, it looked calm on the surface, but in fact it was dark and turbulent. If he made a wrong mistake, he might be doomed. Some things couldn't help him Think carefully.

When he was planning to discuss with his son next year, he heard the night watchman report that the uncle had something to look for him.

Gu Yu put on a coat and went out, "It's just in time, I have something to discuss with you."

The two father and son sat face to face. In the middle of the night, neither of them felt sleepy. "The son came late at night, and the son was eager to tell his father about something. I'm afraid that if the father doesn't stop it as soon as possible, the mother will cause big trouble."

What Gu Ke said was serious, Gu Yu just raised his eyes, his son is good at everything, but his temper is too hasty, as long as it is not a catastrophe of ransacking the family and exterminating the family, what is worth looking for him in the middle of the night, but it’s okay, the eldest son is still Can see the general situation clearly, as long as you stand in a good team, it is still possible to defend.

Besides, my youngest son can only be described as "foolish in big things, shrewd in small things". The easiest thing to do is to throw away watermelons to pick up sesame seeds. How can you sweep the world if you don't sweep the house? He doesn't understand even a small house, so what can he be expected to do?They were all taught astray by his petty old wife.

"What kind of trouble can your mother cause?" Gu Yu snorted. Yu's popularity in the officialdom is good, and he can be drowned by spitting stars. Thinking of him, Gu Yu claims to be a gentleman of ethics, and he does not keep concubines and concubines. He just wants to correct the reputation of the Gu family. It made people forget that the old man of the Gu family doted on his concubine and killed his wife, and forced his first wife to death, all of which were ruined at once.

People won't say that the Yang family loves the youngest son, but they will only say that their Gu family's family style is bad, the upper beam is not upright and the lower beam is crooked. Gu Yu really died unjustly. He was really kept in the dark. After he understands, It's already ripe and irreversible.

After this incident, Master Gu and his old wife respected each other like ice, and Master Gu was not happy when he heard the old wife's name.

Seeing his father's reaction, Gu Ke understood that the 20-year grudge did not disappear with time. Instead, it grew bigger and bigger like a malignant tumor. The following words will definitely add fuel to the fire. He cut it with a knife, but Gu Ke also knew that this matter was not something that could pamper his mother.

Anyway, it was impossible for his father to divorce his mother, so Gu Ke told his father everything about it.

After finishing speaking, Gu Ke looked at his father calmly, "Mother wants to find a good family for Changting, but she loves Changting too much."

"A niece from her natal family is actually more important than her own son. Tell me, what else can I say." Now that things have happened, Gu Yu no longer has any illusions about Liu Shi.

The two father and son were relatively silent.

"At the end of the day, Mrs. Yang's heart is too big." Mrs. Yang is Mrs. Gu's niece, Mrs. Liu's, and Mrs. Yang's daughter stays with Mrs. Gu's day and night, so there will be no rumors?Seeing something wrong, but not mentioning it, it must be wishful thinking.In this matter, Gu Changting may be innocent, but Yihui definitely knows about it.

Gu Ke didn't want to talk about his mother's fault, so all the faults must be instigated by someone behind his back.

"Your mother was originally confused. It's understandable that she didn't know the consequences of this incident. But if she knows that she can't do it, and puts her personal interests above the interests of the family, that's stupid." Gu Yu With a wry smile, "This is all caused by your brother."

There is no distinction between the concubine and the concubine, causing the concubine and the concubine to try to stand shoulder to shoulder with the concubine. If things go on like this, the concubine's children will inevitably be greedy and unable to see their own position. It is not unthinkable to want to replace the concubine.

——There is no peace at home.

"I remember that Cai Heng of the Guozijian Jijiu had a 19-year-old daughter who was born to a concubine. She missed the flowering period because she kept filial piety for her aunt. It is said that she is quite virtuous. Get your daughter-in-law to find a good official matchmaker early tomorrow and come to propose marriage." Gu Yu made a decisive decision to cut through the mess quickly and cut off their thoughts, so that no one would make any troubles again.

"Isn't that wronging Changting too much?" Gu Ke said unbearably. In fact, Gu Changting was also kept in the dark. Gu Changting has only been in the capital for eight days. To be able to marry the prostitute daughter of the He family, at best, he hoped to find a wife with a slightly higher family background.

"Wronged him, where did he wronged him? At the same time, a daughter from the fourth-rank Guozijian sacrificed wine, and a son from the fifth-rank Zhizhou. If you want to talk about it seriously, it's still high-ranking."

Isn't one from the fourth rank and the other from the fifth rank, the difference is a whole rank, isn't it Gao Pan?

But things didn’t work out like this. In addition to having a father who knew the state from the fifth grade, Gu Changting was also the grandson of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Moreover, Cai Heng’s family was very "clean" and expensive, so the dowry might not be much.

Gu Ke thought for a while and said, "I do know that Mrs. Cai's family has a 19-year-old concubine daughter and a 15-year-old concubine daughter who has not settled down. She just matches Changting and can marry a concubine daughter. Why do you want to marry a concubine?" A concubine?" The suppression was severe, fearing that Changting would complain.

"You think I don't want Changting, okay? He is also my grandson, Gu Yu, but he has to be in the right position, so that the family and everything can prosper." Gu Yu closed his eyes. , you ask your daughter-in-law to take a closer look to see which one is more suitable, and decide on the marriage as soon as possible."

When his father said this, Gu Ke knew that his father had let go. After all, under normal circumstances, the education of prostitute daughters is always better than concubine daughters.

Just like Gu Yu himself said, Gu Changting is still a descendant of the Gu family, if not necessary, why would his grandfather suppress him?Even if they suppressed him helplessly, they would not want to knock him into the dust.

"Then I'll ask Mrs. Yu to think about Mrs. Cai's daughter-in-law's marriage proposal tomorrow?" Gu Ke said in a low voice.

Gu Yu on the opposite side nodded unobtrusively.

After talking about family affairs, there are still state affairs.

The two father and son drank a cup of cold tea to clear their minds.

"You are the servant of the household department, has there been any movement in your household department recently?" Gu Yu asked his son.

"Father asked, did he hear something?" Gu Ke asked back.

"Okay, we don't need to play any mysteries between father and son?" Gu Yu rolled up his sleeves, "Your household department is in charge of the country's territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters. To put it bluntly, it is in charge of money. Your Majesty has been using troops in the Northwest for years. Recently, the Peace Faction asked for a truce in the name of an empty treasury so that the people could recuperate. I can’t support it, now I ask you if you still have any money in the household department? How much money is there?”

"Father, you know that I'm just the servant of the household department, not the minister of the household department. You should ask the minister of the household department for this kind of question." Gu Ke wanted to spread his hands helplessly.

"Nonsense, if I can ask you from the Minister of the Household Department, why should I ask you?" Gu Yu said, "The current Minister of the Household Department is His Majesty's confidant, and His Majesty strongly supports the Northwest War. I can ask you." Is it true that there are ghosts?"

Gu Ke thought, "Northwest and Turks have been fighting for three years, and the two sides have won and lost each other. During the three years, most of the country's tax revenue has been invested in the Northwest, plus officials' salaries, repairing the water calendar, and royal expenses. The national treasury must be unable to make ends meet every year, and it is the old bottom that has been saved all the year round.

You also know that I have been transferred to the Ministry of Households for less than half a year, and I am not very clear about how much money is left in the treasury, but whenever the Northwest Army asks for food and salaries, Master Shangshu will practice hard for several days with a frown, and infer from this If not, the treasury may not have a lot of money. "

Based on Master Shangshu’s past beliefs, Gu Ke thought that there would be no money left in the national treasury. If Gu Changhua was here, he would know clearly from his previous life experience that it’s not that there is no money in the national treasury, but that the money in the national treasury is not in the treasury. Whether the Northwest continues to use troops is not a dispute between the main war faction and the main peace faction, but a dispute between the queen of Daqi and the future prince.
