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

Strength speaks
The cup was filled with steam, and Gu Zhengde sniffed the fragrance of Longjing lightly. He felt a little better physically and mentally. He put down the cup at will, and his eyes fell on Gu Yunji's hand: "The tea is getting cold, so why don't you take a sip?" ?"

First, they patiently and persuasively reminded Gu Yunji of the importance of his family, then suddenly pointed out his faults to shock him, and then affirmed and praised him when he was nervous. The two sat for a while, and Gu Zhengde He easily took the initiative, and a few words made Gu Yunji's heart fluctuate.

Even after living two lifetimes, Gu Yunji's life experience is still superficial, not comparable to Gu Zhengde's ability honed in half a lifetime in the officialdom. At this moment, the thoughts in his mind are already chaotic, and there is no leisure to taste the West Lake Longjing.

With a dry throat, Gu Yunji picked up a cup and poured down half a cup. The slightly cool tea poured down his mouth, calming down a little restlessness in his chest.

Gu Zhengde's meaning is obvious. The reason why he despised Cheng Yan so much was not only because Cheng Yan was born in a poor family, but also because Gu Yunji was a soft-spoken person who didn't hold enough weight in his heart.

Generally speaking, the Songjiang Gu family, as a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River, would not give a poor scholar too much wink.And Cheng Yan was able to visit Gu's family as a guest and get the opportunity to study in a school, all because he was Gu Yunji's friend, and the respect and courtesy given by Gu's family was also for Gu Yunji's sake.

Cheng Yan was a guest invited by Gu Yunji, and the Gu family's attitude towards him reflected the Gu family's attitude towards Gu Yunji.Cheng Yan was able to be framed and tarnished his reputation, in the final analysis, it was because Gu Yunji was not taken seriously in the Gu family, or he was not taken seriously enough.

If Cheng Yan was Gu Mingxuan's friend, maybe today's result would be completely different.

Thinking of this, Gu Yunji's eyes were heavy, and he looked up at Gu Zhengde: "Then if I prove my strength, how far can grandfather do it?"

"It depends on how much strength you can show." Gu Zhengde blew on the hot tea in his cup, and said in a casual tone, "The more you step forward, the Gu family will support you; the more you go up, the Gu family will support you." I will support you one more point, if one day you can climb to the top and become an extremely human minister, it will be so difficult for the Gu family to pave the way for you with all the strength of the whole family?"

"If you have strength, you will naturally have the confidence, and at the same time, you will have the bargaining chip to negotiate with the family. Let alone let the Gu family treat your friends with courtesy, even if you have a certain say in your own life, it is not uncommon."

As he said that, Gu Zhengde took a sip of tea and moistened his throat: "You probably don't know that since you are famous, there are many people who want to marry you, many of them are rich and powerful, and there are even some who are afraid of you. I refused, and instead came to ask to marry your sister."

Gu Yunji looked astonished, a little unexpected: "What?"

"Of course, I didn't agree to any of them, and I pushed them all."

Hearing this, while Gu Yunji breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.The previous ones were rejected, but the subsequent ones are uncertain. The matter between him and Xu Shuhua has not yet been determined. It is not good to tell Gu Zhengde now. If the Gu family insists on giving him a marriage, he is not fully sure that he can withstand the pressure.

Seeing that Gu Yunji frowned, Gu Zhengde thought he was worried about being deprived of the right to choose, so he comforted him and said, "Although marriage is a big deal, it's a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words, but I know you are a child with ideas and don't like being arranged by others, so In any case, I will ask for your opinion, and I will not make decisions without telling you."

"What's more, you are only 17 years old. Don't rush at this moment. At least wait until you finish the provincial examination, and then slowly discuss and choose."

Don't be in a hurry at this moment, that is, you will have to be in a hurry sooner or later, and you can't avoid it.For an individual, the family is not only the confidence and backing, but also the bondage and cage.Gu Zhengde's words reminded Gu Yunji that if he could not prove his strength as soon as possible, then he would not be qualified to negotiate with the family and could only be arranged without any choice.

Today, he saw that he had a good talent for studying, so Gu Zhengde would think about asking his opinion; if he saw that he failed in the examination in another country tomorrow, he might not even have the patience to carefully consider and compare, so he would directly marry him.

Because there is no potential and significance for cultivation, his own thoughts are irrelevant, and even the people around him—his friends and his sister are not worthy of attention and attention.

If you want to control your own destiny and protect the people around you, you must first strengthen your own strength so that the family has scruples.The imperial examination is the fastest way to achieve this goal.

Gu Zhengde bent his fingers, tapped lightly on the book case, and said slowly and clearly: "I called you here today, not only to talk to you, but also to hope that you will not be disturbed and unable to concentrate on reading. "

"It's mid-June now, and there are less than two months before the provincial exam in August. It's the most important thing for you right now to concentrate on preparing for the exam, understand?"

After tidying up his chaotic thoughts, Gu Yunji took a deep breath, stood up and bowed to Gu Zhengde: "Grandson understands."

"Just understand. I'll teach him a lesson from Gu Ming'an, so that he can live in peace during this time, and don't disturb you and Cheng Yan's study. You can rest assured." Gu Zhengde nodded slightly, and closed his eyes as if tired. Eyelid, "That's it, you go out."

"Yes." Gu Yunji replied, turned and exited the study.

In the corridor far away, looking at Gu Yunji's leaving back, Gu Kaiqi's eyes were deep, and his face was unclear.

Without asking, he could guess what Gu Zhengde said to Gu Yunji.Gu Yunji's talent is outstanding and his heart is extraordinary. Although he still has some inexperienced innocence, but fortunately he knows what he wants, as long as he puts a little bit of tempering, it will only be a matter of time before he becomes a talent.

Gu Yunji's side is okay, but the other... is a bit troublesome.Thinking of Cheng Yan, Gu Kaiqi sighed helplessly.

Before, he felt that Cheng Yan had great potential, and there would be a vast world in the future. Today, seeing that he acted with restraint and restraint, even if he was framed in every possible way, he was not in a hurry and remained calm, so he became more and more sure of his thoughts.

Gu Yunji regards Cheng Yan as a friend and wants to protect him as much as possible, but Cheng Yan may not be willing to hide behind his wings and become someone else's vassal.Regardless of Gu Yunji's relationship, he also wanted to use his own strength to win the respect of the Gu family in an upright manner.

With a poor family and outstanding talent, people like Cheng Yan are the best candidates for recruiting, but it's a pity that such a incident happened today, and Gu Zhengde's attitude towards him is so indifferent, so recruiting is definitely hopeless.

I just hope that when he becomes famous in the future, he can remember his friendship with Gu Yunji and not bear grudges against the Gu family.Gu Kaiqi thought silently.
