Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 129 Warning
Seeing the person coming, Gu Ming'an's whole body immediately retracted, the anger on his face was completely dissipated, and he bowed obediently with lowered eyebrows and eyes: "Fourth Uncle."

Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan also bowed their hands in salute: "I've seen Fourth Uncle/Master Gu Fourth."

"Yeah." Gu Kaiqi nodded slightly, his eyes darting back and forth on several people, "What happened just now? There was a quarrel?"

Gu Mingan laughed uncomfortably, his eyes drifted a little: "No way. I was joking with cousin Yunji and the others. Isn't this because he just arrived, and he is not very familiar with the mansion, so I wanted to take him around Go around, lest they can't even find the way to the school."

Seeing that the township examination is coming soon, Gu Mingan is being watched very closely by his family members. At this time, he must not want to make trouble, lest Gu Kaiqi report to Gu Zhengde and let him be scolded again. Better.

As he said that, Gu Mingan grabbed Gu Yunji's shoulders, pretending that nothing had happened, and said without changing his expression: "We brothers have a very good relationship, why do we quarrel? Don't you think so, Yunji?"

The corners of Gu Yunji's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he had a new understanding of Gu Ming'an's thick face.

Gu Ming'an is a troublemaker who bullies the weak and fears the strong, and Gu Kaiqi knows him very well, so how could he believe his nonsense.From the current scene, it can be seen that he took the initiative to provoke troubles, but he suffered a disadvantage from Gu Yunji and the other two, so he became angry from embarrassment.

"Really?" Gu Kaiqi raised his eyebrows, and his voice was a little sickly lazy, "That's the best. But right now, why don't you study in the room and run around? Naturally, Yunji and the others have people. Receptionist, there is no need for you to cause trouble here. You are not on the right track all day long, and if your father finds out, he will punish you again!"

Thinking of Gu Kaili's gloomy face scolding him, Gu Mingan couldn't help but feel guilty, and hurriedly said with a playful smile:

"Fourth uncle, please don't tell my father. Didn't you hear that the great scholar will come tomorrow? I just want to take advantage of today to relax and recharge my mind so that I can attend class tomorrow." Gu Mingan rolled his eyes twice, and then said stiffly Changing the subject, "It's so windy here, Fourth Uncle, your bones are not good, be careful of the cold, you'd better go back early and rest."

Gu Kaiqi snorted coldly: "I'm in poor health, but I'm not so brittle, how can I be unbearable with a little wind? Don't change the subject with me."

Then, he turned his head to look at Gu Yunji, with a warm smile on his face: "I haven't seen you for almost three years, Yunji has grown a lot taller, your grandfather was half a head shorter than me when he passed his birthday, but now he is shorter than me." I'm still tall, and I really have grown up."

Gu Yunji smiled and replied: "I don't think Fourth Uncle has changed much, but his complexion is better than three years ago, and he is actually getting younger and younger."

"You boy! I haven't seen you for so long, you have grown taller, and your mouth has become sweeter!" Gu Kaiqi laughed, his voice sounded very cheerful, "August is the township exam, you have to work hard and try to pass the exam in one fell swoop." The top three are back!"

Gu Mingxuan listened disapprovingly, and muttered in a low voice: "It's easy to say, the top three are so easy to take the exam? You know, my elder brother only took No.5 in the exam, and he was still in the top three. I don't think he can pass the exam... ..."

Before Gu Mingxuan finished speaking, he was glared at by Gu Kaiqi, so he quickly shut his mouth obediently, not daring to speak out.

Seeing this, Gu Kaiqi turned around, and his eyes fell on Cheng Yan who was at the side: "Also... Mr. Cheng, since you are here, you are a guest of my Gu family, so don't be too restrained, just feel free. You can tell me anything you need.”

Cheng Yan lowered his head meekly, and said politely: "Thank you, Master Gu Si."

Gu Kaiqi had no impression of Cheng Yan before, but only from the few words in Gu Kaizhen's letter, he knew that he was a young man with good grades and great development potential. At this moment, he saw his handsome appearance, gentle and elegant demeanor, and his demeanor was extraordinary.

It's just that the clothes are plainer.

With such a conclusion in mind, Gu Kaiqi's first impression of Cheng Yan was very good, and he couldn't help but look at him with some appreciation.

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at Gu Mingxuan who was next to him, but saw that his eyes were contemptuous, and he was pursing his lips secretly, as if he looked down on Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan, Gu Kaiqi's eyes suddenly dimmed.

Thinking of Gu Yunji and the two of them traveling all the way, after exchanging a few casual greetings, Gu Kaiqi asked them to go back to their room and have a good rest.

Seeing that the two doors in front of him were tightly closed, Gu Kaiqi withdrew his smile, turned around and grabbed Gu Mingxuan's clothes beside him, and dragged him forward: "Come with me, I have something to say to you explain."

Gu Mingan was caught off guard by him and staggered. He couldn't walk steadily, and he didn't dare to struggle hard because of his weak body, so he had to follow his movements and walk forward: "Hey, uncle... slow down , don’t fall, can’t I go with you?”

All the way to Gu Ming'an's study, Gu Kaiqi let go of his hand, and warned with a calm face: "I know you can't like Gu Yunji, but I advise you not to mess with him. It's the country test soon. You'd better be quiet during the time, and don't make things difficult for your father and grandfather!"

Gu Ming'an had an innocent face, and his tone was casual: "I didn't mess with him, so why not just go over and say hello to him?"

"Stop pretending to me, I don't know what you are like?" Seeing his foolish look, Gu Kaiqi couldn't help but get angry, "This is different from the past, he is now the direct disciple of the former chief assistant of the cabinet. Your Majesty has praised him very much, and his future is limitless. Otherwise, why do you think your grandfather offered to let him come to school? It is precisely because he values ​​him!"

Gu Mingan pursed his lips tightly, still very unconvinced: "I just can't be reconciled, he is a bastard, he should stay in his Huating County obediently, why..."

"No matter what kind of concubine or concubine, they are all grandsons of your grandfather. In his eyes, it is natural to cultivate the one who strives for success." Gu Mingan was interrupted by Gu Kaiqi before he finished speaking, "A grandson has passed the exam for two years. He didn’t pass the exam every time, but the other grandson showed extraordinary talent at a young age, if you two had a dispute, who do you think your grandfather would favor?”

These words were like a basin of cold water, pouring Gu Mingan's heart into a chill, making him have to face the stark reality: except for his concubine background, he is not at all better than Gu Yunji, or even inferior to him at all.

Or to put it a bit bigger—except for his rich background, he is no better than anyone else in terms of ability.

All along, he has lived under the halo of his elder brother, and he cannot get the attention of his father or his grandfather. The only thing that can make him feel a little bit superior is his status as a descendant and the authentic name of the eldest son.

Gu Ming'an used this to comfort himself. The reason why his elder brother Gu Mingxuan is outstanding is because he is the authentic grandson of the eldest son, and everything is in line with the hierarchical etiquette system.Then besides the eldest brother, he, Gu Mingan, is naturally nobler than the others, after all, this is what it should be.

So when he saw Gu Yunxiao, who was a concubine but was elected earlier than him, and Gu Yunji, who was gradually emerging, he felt extremely unbalanced, and he didn't like the other party at all.

Because the two of them reminded him—except for his status as a descendant, he is no nobler than anyone else.

Seeing that Gu Mingan was silent and seemed to be listening, Gu Kaiqi softened his tone and said with relief: "In any case, you are all cousins ​​connected by blood, and you are all a family. You need to support each other in the future, so that the family can last forever. The reason why I tell you this is that I don't want you to be disturbed right now, and it would be bad if it affects your country test."

Of course, the more important thing is not to affect Gu Yunji's rural examination.

Gu Mingan tightened his fingers on the side of his body, and his voice was dry: "I see, fourth uncle."

Although he agreed to Gu Kaiqi, Gu Ming'an still felt blocked when he mentioned these things.Suddenly, he thought of Cheng Yan's words: "How do you know that in the future you and I won't be in different situations, high and low?"

That's all for Gu Yunji, after all, they are both descendants of the Gu family in Songjiang, and both come from aristocratic families.Cheng Yan is a complete muddy leg, why should he climb onto his own head?How dare he?
Gu Mingan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a sarcasm: Hmph, if I can't offend Gu Yunji, can I still offend you?
