Jin Chao returned to Gu's house on the second day. Ji Wu brought a lot of things to her, including the specialties Liu Min brought back from Hebei, Ji Wu's private room, or all kinds of food, and the uncle of the Ji family gave her The Four Treasures of the Study brought by Gu Jinrong.
After she came back, she went directly into the hanging flower door. Mother Xu came to greet her quickly, and Gu Yi and Gu Xi were waiting at the screen wall early in the morning. Jin Chao took a look and didn't see Gu Lan or Gu Jinrong. Mother Xu said: "The eldest young master went to the Yu family. The second young lady said that she had a headache and it was inconvenient to come to greet her"
Jin Chao is the eldest daughter, so Gu Lan should come to pick her up. But with her personality, Gu Jinchao didn't bother to pay attention to her.
She told Mother Xu what items her grandmother had given her from her private treasury, including pieces of pure Sichuan brocade and tapestry satin. Grandma said she would wait until she observed the rules before using them. The other things were things for each room. Gu Yi and Gu Xi were also observing filial piety. Grandma couldn't give expensive things, so she gave them exquisite food.
Jin Chao talked to the two of them for a while, and then started to deal with some things at home that Mother Xu couldn't make up her mind about.
"Aunt Song is crazy. She said that she accidentally fell off a Taihu stone a few days ago and her legs are bad Several women discussed coming to tell me whether they would live in Tingtao Pavilion." The terrain of Tingtao Pavilion It is higher than other places and among the bamboo forests.
Seeing Mrs. Xu¡¯s smiling face, Jin Chao seemed to understand a little, and asked her in a low voice: ¡°Aunt Songare you pretending to be crazy?¡±
Xu's mother whispered: "Several women are watching. If she is really unconscious, she can sneak out like this and even hurt her leg Although she didn't reveal her fault, she wanted to do it." This is her biggest flaw."
Jin Chao smiled and asked, "Does father know?"
Mother Xu shook her head: "The master has been with Taoist Priest Qingxu all day long. He also went to Baiyun Temple not long ago. When he came back, Taoist Qingxu tinkered with a stove, saying it was for alchemy. As a result, the stove caught fire and almost destroyed the east wing. The burning is goneThe master just asked the Taoist priest to move into the back room for temporary living, and wait until the west wing is cleared out."
The back room is usually where the servants live. Jin Chao didn't know whether he should cry or laugh after hearing this, so he said about Aunt Song: "Since she is crazy, there are ways to be crazy. If she wants to run away, she will be tied to the kang by the window day and night, waiting. When does she stop running around, let her go." Now that she is in charge of the Gu family, Aunt Song's actions are undoubtedly like a clown, not to mention breaking her leg, she broke her neck, Jin Chao doesn't want to pay attention to her, and No one will say anything.
Mother Xu promised not to talk about these trivial matters anymore, but to talk about the money donated by Gu Dezhao: "Miss, please give me some advice, this is four thousand taels!"
??Four thousand taels, it would make a loud noise if thrown into the water, and given to Taoist Master Qingxu, it would be worse than losing it in water.
Jin Chao also knew in her heart that she pondered for a moment and asked Mother Xu to cut up the Caohe donkey meat she brought back and put a plate of Tangqi tangerines. She also made a plate of peach slices and a plate of dates with molasses. I went to my father's place with a food box.
Gu Dezhao was naturally extremely happy to see his eldest daughter back. He pulled her over to sit down and asked her if it was fun to go to her grandmother's house.
Jin Chao wanted to laugh a little. It turned out that in Gu Dezhao's opinion, she was there for fun.
Bi Yue laid out the things she had brought back, Shui Ying went to get a bowl, and Jin Chao ordered another pot of wine to be boiled.
"Why didn't you see your father and the Taoist priest together?" Jin Chao asked with a smile.
"Gu Dezhao said sarcastically: "He is reading Taoist books in his room"
Looking at the eldest daughter¡¯s appearance, he was not sure whether she knew that Taoist Master Qingxu burned down the east wing.
Jin Chao immediately told Mother Xu to go to the back room to have a look, but Gu Dezhao couldn't stop her. When Mother Xu came back, she told Jin Chao: "the Taoist priest is refining elixirs, and there is so much smoke in the room, so there is no need for slaves to go in, saying that you are afraid." Revealed his recipe."
Jin Chao smiled and did not talk about Taoist Master Qingxu, but pointed to the plate of donkey meat: "Father, this is what my third cousin Liu's brother brought back from Hebei. People say it is dragon meat from the sky. Donkey meat on the ground. Father, let¡¯s try it and see if it¡¯s okay.¡±
Gu Dezhao couldn't figure out what the eldest daughter was paying attention to, but he understood that the burning of the east wing could no longer be concealed.
Gu Dezhao picked up a piece of donkey meat. He was so worried that he put down his chopsticks and said to Jin Chao: "This is also my father's fault. The Taoist priest said that it is not good to refine elixirs in the side room. We need to find a ventilated and bright attic. Our family also There is no such attic, so I will temporarily live in the east wing"
Jin Chao put down the chopsticks in his hand with a snap, and said to his father with a smile: "What do you mean, do you want to build another attic for the Taoist priest so that he can play with it?"
Gu Dezhao¡¯s expression is unavoidableUgly, he whispered: "Jin Chao, what are you talking about!"
Jin Chao nodded and smiled: "Building a loft is nothing. My father donated four thousand taels of silver to the Taoist Sanqing Hall. That is a big deal!"
Gu Dezhao was even more embarrassed. He paid four thousand taels of silver, but he told the incident department that they would not keep accounts. But this matter is so big, how could it be hidden from Mother Xu, who now has so many eyes and ears?
He coughed and said to Jin Chao in a soft tone: "Father has done so many wrong things, so it doesn't matter if he donates some money to the Taoist temple to build the Sanqing Palace. Money is something external to the body. If you don't take it with you in life, you won't take it with you in death. Besides, the Taoist priest As I said, after the Sanqing Hall is built, it is also good to keep the memorial tablet for your mother for a long time."
Jin Chao was a little disappointed and said softly to him: "Father, you know that our family's money is flowing smoothly. Don't you think about it, if it weren't for the help of the Ji family, we would have made so much income. Just relying on your salary, how? I can get four thousand taels of silver. Let me ask you, if someone asks you where you got the money, what would you say? Taoist Qingxu wants to build a Sanqing Palace, but he doesn¡¯t know many other princes and ministers. Why? Let you take the lead. You are neither a high-ranking official nor a noble, let others know what to say if this is spread!"
Gu Dezhao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this level. But seeing that Taoist Master Qingxu had the best relationship with him, he figured out that the money was nothing, it was just used to cultivate Taoism
Jin Chao continued: "Liu's elder brother Liu Min, who is in his early thirties, is already the Xuanfu envoy of Hebei. He does not have the shadow of his family or the support of wealthy businessmen to support him, so he does it for real. I don't I beg you, father, to be like the Liu family's brother, and at least don't cause trouble for the Ji family and the Gu family"
The eldest daughter¡¯s words really poked at Gu Dezhao¡¯s weakness. He is able to achieve his current official position because he has an inseparable relationship with the Ji family and the Gu family. Gu Dezhao felt a little guilty, four thousand taels of silver Thinking about it now, he was indeed too impulsive!
Taoist Priest Qingxu knows so many people, many of whom are either rich or noble. It is really not appropriate to let him take the lead. If word spreads, others may think that the Gu family is so rich!
The more Gu Dezhao thought about it, the more he felt that what his eldest daughter said made sense, so he went to see Taoist Master Qingxu in the afternoon.
The Taoist priest put the elixir he had refined into a brocade box and said to him: "This is the elixir that King Yanping asked for for his eldest son. I made a batch first and gave it to him." He combed his hair around him. The little boy in Daoji put away the elixir box.
Taoist Master Qingxu twirled his beard, asked Gu Dezhao to sit on the verandah, and said to him with a smile: "If your eldest son wants it, I can make a furnace for him. With our friendship, we will naturally use the best for everything." , and you don¡¯t have to pay.¡±
Gu Dezhao still wanted to talk about the money. Unexpectedly, Taoist Master Qingxu suddenly offered to help Gu Jinrong make alchemy for free. He was speechless for a moment. Who in Yanjing doesn't know that Taoist Master Qingxu's elixir can prolong life, and it's hard to find just one elixir. He could only evade: "Jinrong's health is still good, so I'd better not bother the Taoist priest."
King Yanping asked for elixirs for his eldest son because his eldest son had a weak illness and was bedridden all year round.
Taoist Priest Qingxu waved his hand: "You are so polite. Even if the elixir does not cure diseases, it can only strengthen the body. I will make a furnace for your eldest son and send it to him tomorrow."
Gu Dezhao smiled and talked about the construction of Sanqing Palace: "You said that many people have invested money, and you don't know who."
Taoist Priest Qingxu looked at him and gave him a long list of names, all of them distinguished. When he asked about the silver, Taoist Master Qingxu became a little unhappy and said calmly: "Are you worried that the silver will be ruined? I asked you to pay more because I want your contribution to be greater and you will be able to achieve success in the future." .¡±
Hearing what he said, Gu Dezhao felt even more embarrassed, and said: "I don't have any other intentions, I just want the Taoist priest to hide it. After all, if I offer so much money, others will always be suspicious."
Taoist Priest Qingxu's face finally relaxed: "Don't worry, why would I tell anyone about this? I have something else to do, so you should go back first."
He was a little unhappy after all. Gu Dezhao didn't ask for money, which was considered a beggar. He secretly thought that he would not be able to do such a thing in the future, so he just gave it up and left.
As soon as he left, Taoist Priest Qingxu snorted, and his child hurriedly came over. Taoist Priest Qingxu raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is their eldest lady back?"
The boy smiled hurriedly and said: "That's right! I heard that I went to talk to Mr. Gu this morning. Master, we are at Gu's house. We live in the back room. We asked Mr. Gu to donate some money. The boss was reluctant, so we Why stay here any longer! Didn¡¯t King Yanping invite us to go?"
Taoist Master Qingxu twisted his beard and said with a smile: "What do you know! No one else can be as willing to pay as Mr. Gu! Yanqing Temple will soon have another Sanqing Palace. But this eldest lady in their family is really annoying, I Look at the turmoil in the Gu family, it¡¯s her fate that is in conflict"
Taoist Priest Qingxu thought for a while and felt even more uncomfortable. He was treated with courtesy wherever he went. Why does the eldest lady of the Gu family have to do this? Isn't it just four thousand taels of silver? To their Gu family, that's not a drop in the bucket!
Taoist Priest Qingxu thought for a long time, but still felt that the Gu family could not stay here for a long time, and he would leave when he got the money. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The Gu family is in a state of chaos, and it¡¯s because of her fate"
