Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 182

In the whole courtyard, Guo Ye was the only one left to continue playing with mud there, and from time to time, he said, "This must be a mountain?" "There should be no other water transportation channels between Longxi County and Bashu County except the Minjiang River right?"

Strange, no one knows what he is doing!

Cheng Erniu, Fatty Zhu doesn't know what Guo Ye is doing,

Ma Yuanju, Kang Bao also didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Guo Ye's gourd,

Even Guo Ye's own father, Guo Laohan, was immersed in the joyful atmosphere that Lao Guo's family had a ninth-rank official, and he didn't know what his son was going crazy at all.

For those who follow Guo Ye, no one knows what he is tossing about.

After three consecutive days like this, naturally some people began to secretly worry.

Moving next door to Guo's mansion, Guo Ye's cheap father-in-law is naturally the most anxious person. At this time, he is like an ant on a hot pot, wandering back and forth in the living room, constantly chanting Guo Ye's name in his mouth.

Wu Xiuxiu, the eldest lady of the Wu family who accompanied her father, saw her father so restless, and couldn't help but asked worriedly, "Daddy, what are you worried about?"

Wu Maocai didn't seem to hear Wu Xiuxiu's question, and continued to mutter to himself: "What should I do, I didn't expect this kid to have such a great opportunity, and he was promoted to the ninth-rank inspector in one day, this is a great official ah."

The fact that Guo Ye was promoted to Longxi inspector was no longer a secret, and it had already been spread in the county.

Naturally, Wu Xiuxiu also listened to the people talking about this matter, so she was not surprised that her father said this. On the contrary, she felt a little sweeter in her heart, because she remembered the scene on the east gate tower that day.

On that day, the bandits besieged the city, and bandits pressed outside the east gate, and the entire Longxi county was in danger. If one bad thing happened, the city gate would be broken in an instant, and the people in the city would be devastated.

On that day, I went to the city alone to make suggestions and buy time for Guo Ye, Ma Yuanju and others to breathe.

On that day, Guo Ye put on his armor and went into battle. He led a lone army of eighteen cavalry, broke the boat and attacked the rear camp of the bandit army by surprise.

On that day, I bid farewell to Guo Ye with tears in my eyes, and at the last moment, I confessed my heart to him.

The scene of that day is vivid.

Thick smoke billows outside the city, bandits overwhelm the city,

In the city, he was weak and Qianqian, and complained to stay: "Guo Ye, can you not go?"

The young man in white robe, holding a spear in his hand, resolutely embarked on the journey...

Looking at his resolute and heroic back, he once again broke the last line of defense in his heart: "Guo Ye, you have to come back alive. Don't forget, you have a family!"

Someone with a family?

His home is his home, the home of his Guo Ye and her Wu Xiuxiu.

……

Thoughts were surging, and her heart was beating violently. Wu Xiuxiu didn't even know when Guo Ye had slipped into her heart.

In an instant,

A blush crept up the branches, slowly climbed up her neck, and spread to her cheeks.

Shame to death!

However, there is always that indelible sweetness in the shame.

Wu Xiuxiu said angrily in her heart, maybe this is love?

"Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu?"

Seeing his daughter sitting on the chair with a blushing face without saying a word, Wu Maocai looked at her suspiciously and began to call out.

"Ah? Daddy, what, what's the matter?"

At this time, Wu Xiuxiu was looked at by her father's cunning and vicious eyes, as if Haitang had just woken up and was exposed to the scorching sun, and she couldn't open her eyes.

My heart was pounding like a deer, pounding loudly.

"Hey, Xiuxiu, you said that since Guo Ye has been promoted to the Ninth Rank Inspection, why don't you come to visit my father-in-law? Anyway, you two are also husband and wife, right?"

Wu Maocai laughed a few times, as if joking or asking, and explained the reason for his restlessness.

Wu Xiuxiu glanced at her own father, who was a little bit at the mercy of the wind, and felt a little bitter in her heart, complaining, "Daddy, can you blame Guo Ye for this?"Who made you, an old man, have a changeable temper and change every now and then?

It's no wonder Guo Ye said that you, the old man, are following others.

Seeing her father staring at her, waiting for an answer, Wu Xiuxiu frowned and said, "This, is this also human nature? Wasn't his marriage to me an expedient measure between my father and me? Daughter, Daughter, alas, I really don’t know how to speak.”

When it comes to this, Wu Xiuxiu is also tangled.

If he rushed to find Guo Ye rashly now, would the boy look at him like his father?

Listening to Wu Xiuxiu's reply, Wu Maocai had mixed feelings in his heart, cursing in his heart that he was really delusional and lost his eyes.

Why didn't I see it at the beginning, Guo Ye would be so promising?

Alas, Wu Maocai lamented in his heart. Old Wu also capsized in the gutter, and was pecked by geese all day long. How could he go astray and mistakenly regard a piece of beautiful jade as an inferior stubborn stone?

No, no, Wu Maocai shook his head secretly, and must win back the defeat.

Immediately, Wu Maocai said harshly: "Xiuxiu, what you said is wrong. You have to know that no matter why you and Guo Ye got married, you both have worshiped heaven and earth and have the name of husband and wife. Besides, Our family still has the paperwork that was hired by the old Guo family, this point, even if Guo Ye is a first-rank official, he can't deny it, can't he?"

"But Dad, if we do this, won't people look down on him even more?"

Wu Xiuxiu completely disagreed with her father's statement. The Wu family had been wronged in this matter. If they still use these methods to coerce Guo Ye, it will become even worse.

Now Wu Xiuxiu's position seems to have changed, as everyone knows, the Huaichun girl is the most ignorant, and the Huaichun girl is the most gentle and indecisive.

Wu Maocai listened to his daughter's awakening, thinking about it, he couldn't do it like this, Guo Ye's temperament is soft and not hard, once he gets messy, he doesn't even bother to take a bite of softness in the end.

If you do this according to your own ideas, specifying that you want to fetch water from a bamboo basket will be in vain.

What should I do?

Wu Maocai fell into silence again, paced back and forth in the room, casually glanced at a pair of words hanging on the hall, and turned his gaze to the place where the signature was stamped.

Emmanuel suddenly appeared!

Yes, looking for him, looking for him will definitely make this happen, and solve a big knot in my old Wu's heart!

Chapter 140 Wu Xiuxiu's First Step

Wu Xiuxiu raised her eyes and found that her father's eyes were locked on a pair of calligraphy hanging in the middle of the hall. That pair of calligraphy has quite a lot of origins and origins.

It is precisely because I contributed to the East Gate Tower a few days ago, and my father paid money to buy vegetable oil and hired people to help defend the city, and made great contributions to solving the emergency at the East Gate.

Precisely because of the relationship between Guo Ye and the Wu family, it is naturally impossible for Gu County Magistrate and others to reward the Wu family, but Ma Yuanju, who personally participated in commanding the defense of the city that day, felt a little guilty and wanted to make up for the Wu family.
