Chapter 570 Disgust
Luo Huiniang also felt that Gu Jinli was right and kept nodding her head. This Mr. Xia is really picky. How can he be so meticulous in his life in the countryside? Moreover, she can't understand what he is talking about.
After hearing this, Mr. Xia turned around, glared at Gu Jinli, and rolled his eyes at Luo Huiniang. Then he picked up the teacup, sipped it gracefully, and returned to his literati appearance, leaving Luo Huiniang dumbfounded.
...People in the town said that this house was haunted, but Mr. Xia looked like a monster at first glance, so he would be fine living in a haunted house. No wonder he said he was not afraid of ghosts, Luo Huiniang thought.
Gu Jinan is a restless person, helping Mr. Xia organize books and pictures.
Gu Jinli also pulled Luo Huiniang to help, and when she saw Gu Jinan working, she was suddenly startled and said: "Brother, your working movements have become better."
It's like I have learned it specially. It is no longer just busy, but there is a sense of elegance in the busyness. The movements are neither fast nor slow, as graceful and beautiful as flowing clouds and flowing water.
Gu Jinan smiled and said, "When I was in Jinling Mansion, I learned etiquette from Mr. Xia for a period of time."
The etiquette in the Six Arts of the Gentleman refers not only to etiquette, but also etiquette, which is manners.
Although Shang Xiucai's etiquette is good, he is not from a noble family. He only looks similar in appearance but has no charm. After meeting Mr. Xia, Shang Xiucai was very impressed. When he learned that Mr. Xia was willing to teach Gu Jinan, he readily agreed.
Gu Jinli hurriedly asked: "Then eldest brother still goes to study at Uncle Shang's house? Uncle Shang is so good to us."
If you don't go, Uncle Shang will definitely be sad.
Gu Jinan also respects Shang Xiucai from the bottom of his heart and treats him as an elder. Hearing this, he said: "I will go as usual, but I will come to study with Mr. Xia for a few days every month."
After hearing this, Gu Jinli felt relieved.
Luo Huiniang had to go to the shop to work. After helping with the work for half an hour, she said goodbye and left. As he left, he was still muttering: "I wouldn't have come if I had known better. It's not fun to watch, and I still have to work."
When she returned to the shop, Mrs. Chu scolded her for running out again and worrying her family.
Gu Jinli's brother and sister continued to help organize things at Mr.
They were very tired and sat next to Mr. Xia, eating the refreshments brought by the servants. Mr. Xia looked at Gu Jinli's eating appearance, frowned, and said nothing.
After drinking tea, a servant came to report: "Sir, there is a father and son named Gu outside the door asking to see him, saying they are here to see Brother An of the Gu family."
Gu Jinli heard this and said, "It's my father and younger brother. They must be here to take us home. Let's say goodbye first."
Mr. Xia said: "Don't worry, there is still some time before the sun goes down."
Then he said to the servant: "Go and invite the Gu family and his son in, and bring some new tea and snacks."
"Yes." The servant responded, bowed and left, and soon brought Gu Dashan and Gu Jincheng in.
When Gu Jincheng saw Gu Jinan, he immediately rushed over: "Brother, brother, you are finally back. Brother Cheng misses you... wuwuwu, if you don't go home, brother Cheng will sleep alone and be scared."
The news that Gu Jinan had returned with a team of mule carts quickly spread throughout the town. When people from Gu's Restaurant and Braised Meat Shop found out, they went back and told Gu Dashan and the others.
After hearing this, Gu Dashan immediately drove a mule cart to pick up his eldest son. Brother Cheng was most attached to Brother An. He hadn't seen Brother An for a long time and missed his brother very much, so Gu Dashan brought him with him.
Gu Jinan hugged Brother Cheng and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. Brother is back. He will stay with you tonight."
Gu Jinli laughed at him: "You are almost five years old. You are an old child, not a three-year-old baby. You are still crying when you see your elder brother. It is so embarrassing."
After hearing this, Gu Jincheng glared at Gu Jinli, then crawled into An Geer's arms, saying, "Brother, the second sister is bullying me again, you have to help me."
Gu Jinan laughed out loud when he heard this: "You sue your second sister again, be careful she doesn't make you delicious food in the future."
Gu Dashan was very happy to see his three children chatting and laughing.
Mr. Xia frowned slightly. This Gu Jincheng was actually like this. He was almost five years old and still clinging to his eldest brother and crawling into his arms. What kind of behavior was that? Where is the temperament of a child of a wealthy family? How to become an heir!
He looked at Gu Dashan again and saw that he was wearing a short brown suit, a farmer's straw hat on his head, and shoes stained with mud on his feet. He felt sick in his heart and felt like he was about to vomit.
Mr. Xia couldn't help but have red circles in his eyes. Mrs. Cui actually married such a man. Although she looks good, look at this outfit and her wealth and background. It's impossible to tell!
I heard that he is still a loser with no abilities, and he relies on his second daughter's family to live a good life.
How could such a rough and reckless country man be worthy of the Cui family!
If Cui had been found ten years earlier, Gu Dashan would not have survived. He would have died, and his death would have been extremely miserable! Then Cui will remarry Gao Men.
But now it's too late to say anything. She already has four children, and Ms. Cui has not achieved much in her life. She is just a peasant woman. She is completely useless. No matter how hard she works to manage it, it will be in vain.
Now, I can only look at these four children.
Although Gu Jinan is smart, he is already fifteen years old. He has been tainted with rural habits for more than ten years and cannot be taught no matter how hard he is taught. Moreover, he is the eldest son and must inherit the Gu family, so their target is Gu Jincheng.
The second son born to the Cui family is young, easy to teach, and has an eldest brother to inherit the Gu family. It doesn't matter if his surname is Gu Jincheng or not.
Gu Jinli was teasing Brother Cheng when she caught a glimpse of Mr. Xia staring at Gu Dashan with disgust in his eyes, and couldn't help but pause. Although Mr. Xia covered it up quickly, she was sure she saw it.
"Dad." Gu Jinan put Gu Jincheng down, walked to Gu Dashan, and said, "My son has been out for so long, which makes you worried."
Gu Dashan said with a smile: "It's okay. You might as well go out and see more. You don't have to worry about home."
It's just that the family hasn't seen him for a long time and they are panicking.
Gu Jinan smiled and introduced Mr. Xia to Gu Dashan.
Gu Dashan was shocked when he heard that Mr. When getting along, there is no need to perform these false etiquettes."
After hearing this, Gu Dashan was very happy to see Mr. Xia's demeanor, and Mr. I'm quite impressed.
Finally, Mr. Xia called Brother Cheng and said to him with a smile: "You are Brother Cheng. I heard that you have begun to read. What words can you write? How about writing a few and see?"
Brother Cheng was a good boy in front of his elders. After bowing to Mr. Xia first, he replied: "I have learned some calligraphy, but my writing is not very good. My brother taught me. My brother is very good."
He also didn't forget to praise Gu Jinan and make him laugh.
Mr. Xia smiled and asked his servants to bring him pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and said to Brother Cheng: "Principle the ink yourself and write down the words you can write for me to see."
