Zhou Gu naturally hadn't mentioned this matter to Su Rong.
Because before leaving Jiangning County, Zhou Gu had not made up his mind. Originally, if he did not want to marry Su Rong, he would naturally not be entangled. However, because he no longer resisted marrying Su Rong, and was even somewhat willing to do so, he kept entangled and did not mention it. . On the day Su Rong sent him out of the city, he said there was no rush, but he felt a little annoyed, so he just rode away.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the old Protector became angry, "What? Didn't you mention it?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "No."
The old protector of the country said: "How old are you? Do you still want me to teach you how to get along with a little girl? I tell you, the most taboo thing when getting along with a little girl's family is to hold back what is in your heart. If you don't tell others, How do you know? She still pretends that you don't care about her, and over time, she becomes cold towards you."
Zhou Gu raised his eyes and looked at the old Protector.
The old Protector snorted, "If you want to marry someone else, be careful. You have to travel for two years. Whether the two years are long or short, don't take it lightly and give your daughter's family in advance. I have taken hold of her and asked her to wait wholeheartedly for your words. I will try to catch you when you come back, but it will be too late."
If it had been before, Zhou Gu would have been impatient to listen to the old Protector's lectures to him, but now he sat firmly and listened carefully without any rebuttal.
When the old Protector saw him with his ears pricked up and his face taught, he smiled to himself, thinking that before he left, the little bastard kept saying that he would not marry, but after only a month, he looked like he was interested when he came back. It can be seen that Jiangning County That little girl is very powerful. In a short period of time, she captured this bastard's heart.
The old protector of the country thought this was a good thing. After all, when Zhou Gu looked resistant and impatient and refused to marry him, to be honest, he had a headache. He had countless tough methods to make him agree to marry her, but after all, it was The strong-willed melon is not sweet, and he is afraid that he will become a resentful couple and ruin the two children, so he will be sad to see it, right?
Now that he looked like this, he was happy to see him, so he waved to him, "Go and ask your grandmother and mother for advice. They are women and will understand the thoughts of their daughter's family better."
Zhou Gu stood up when he heard this and walked away neatly.
Old Protector: "..."
He looked at Zhou Gu's uncaring figure and laughed and cursed, "You brat, you thought you were so capable, but it turns out you're just a little loser too."
Zhou Gu naturally didn't hear the old protector scolding him behind him. He left the old protector's study and went to see the eldest princess Sheng'an.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an has been thinking about it for a long time. She counts the days and murmurs a few words every day, worrying about whether he eats well, sleeps well and gets along well with the little girl from the Su family when he is away from home.
The Duke's wife didn't think much of Zhou Gu. Now that the world was at peace, Zhou Gu had martial arts skills, and brought a group of elite guards to protect the Duke's mansion. Even if he encountered bandits, he couldn't tell who would deal with whom. She There is nothing to worry about. Therefore, in my spare time, I just advised Princess Sheng'an to relax and not think about him.
Today, when she heard that Zhou Gu had returned home, the eldest princess Sheng'an smiled and seemed to be full of energy. She quickly sent people to the kitchen to give instructions to cook Zhou Gu's favorite dishes.
Zhou Gu came to the yard of the eldest princess of Sheng'an, entered the house, and saw that his mother and aunt's two sisters-in-law were there. He first greeted the eldest princess, and then his mother, aunt, and sister-in-law in turn.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an waited patiently for him to greet everyone, and then waved eagerly, "Come to grandma, let grandma take a good look. Why do you feel that my good grandson is more handsome than before when you come back from a trip?" some."
Zhou Gu obediently walked over and sat down next to the eldest princess Sheng'an. He specifically turned his face to the eldest princess Sheng'an and said, "Grandma, take a closer look. Am I really more handsome than before?"
Princess Sheng'an really looked at him carefully and nodded seriously, "Yes, he is just more handsome."
Zhou Gu smiled and raised his eyebrows, "Could it be that the soil and water in the south of the Yangtze River support people?"
"More than that, you are dressed up like this..." The eldest princess slapped her forehead, "Let me just say, my grandson is still my grandson. Why, in just one month, it looks and feels so different. It turns out that Your clothes are too bright."
When Zhou Gu entered the house, the Duke's wife saw at a glance that his son was wearing something different from before.
The eroticism that she had specially suppressed for him was now not only exposed, but also seemed to be a little brighter. She commented unceremoniously, "It's all very fancy."
Zhou Gu looked innocent, "It's not my fault, it's Xiao Qi who insisted on giving me such clothes."
"Xiao Qi?" Princess Sheng'an was confused.
The Duke's wife and everyone also looked at Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu sat up straight and explained seriously, "She is my fiancée Su Rong, the seventh daughter of the Su family. Her family calls her Xiaoqi. I brought few clothes with me when I went, and when Zhou Xi wanted to buy something for me, she happened to know So she took me to buy a batch."
"Oh? Did she give you clothes? Return a batch?" Princess Sheng'an keenly grasped two important points.
Zhou Gu coughed and nodded in spite of everyone's attention, "Well, Jinxiu Pavilion, the most famous in Jiangning County, chose the fabric herself. She originally planned to make ten sets of clothes for me, but I didn't expect that when she chose the cloth, she chose Twenty pieces of the latest fabrics, the finest fabrics, and the best patterns were produced. She couldn't part with each piece. After making ten sets of ready-made clothes for me, she bought the other ten pieces of cloth for me, saying that I would buy them again in late autumn. Make clothes and wear them until next spring."
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on the material and pattern of the clothes he was wearing, and when they saw it, they all took a breath.
The clothes Zhou Gu is wearing today are made of the same material as the lake blue brocade that Su Rong and Ji Zhi wore that day. Such material is Yun brocade, which is known as every inch of brocade, and is rare even in the capital. Rarely made with the finest ingredients. Especially the weaving skills are not inferior at all to the best materials from the Royal Clothing Bureau in the palace, and the embroiderer's skills are obviously first-class. The gold thread trimming and fine stitching make it look like extremely skillful embroidery. The color that my mother embroidered is crimson, which is rare in Yun brocade. And because Zhou Gu is tall and thin, wearing it on him adds a bit more color to his appearance.
Princess Sheng'an didn't speak for a while.
Everyone sitting here was not ignorant, and they were all silent.
The Duke's wife looked at her son and asked, "Do you know how much money the clothes you are wearing cost?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "I don't know, it's very expensive anyway."
On that day, the shopkeeper said that the new batch of ingredients were all top-quality ingredients, and he put them out for Su Rong to choose. Su Rong was very satisfied with it, and picked him one by one for almost an hour. If it weren't for the purpose of making Xie Lin jealous, he would have Don't have the patience. He looked like they were all the same, but Su Rong picked them carefully and energetically, so he could only endure it. He doesn't know how many pieces of clothing he has made of this kind of material, but they are made of the same material. He seems to have three pieces of ready-made clothes in his collection at present. The day she had hairpins, he wore a lake blue one, and today he wears one. He had this crimson one and a moon-white one. He didn't wear it yet because he was worried that he wouldn't be able to bear the stains.
"This is more than expensive." The Duke's wife was almost furious, "I'm afraid this one will cost a fortune."
Zhou Gu was shocked, "Is this so expensive?"
He knew it was expensive, but he didn't know exactly how much.
The Duke's wife looked at his stupid look and pointed at him, "Are you short-sighted? Why are you so ignorant? Even if you don't understand how expensive firewood and rice are, why don't you understand ordinary clothes? This thing you are wearing The clothes are made of two feet and two inches of cloth. This is Yunjin, which is made of gold. A piece of cloth that is about the size of a fingernail costs a piece of gold. Calculate for yourself whether this piece of clothing is worth a thousand pieces of gold. ? Equivalent to tens of thousands of taels of silver per piece."
Zhou Gu opened his eyes wide, "Is this, so expensive?"
Then he only has the same three items, and he already has thirty thousand taels? What about all the other clothing fabrics?
The Duke's wife looked at his silly son and felt that it was necessary to give him some popular science knowledge. It was because she had been too generous with his life in these years, and he was not a pretty person, so he She didn't understand or care about these at all, so she could accept such expensive clothes with peace of mind. And what made her dizzy the most was that there was more than one piece, a total of ten sets of ready-made clothes and ten pieces of cloth.
She asked, "Are the rest of your clothes like this?"
"Not all of them, but they are almost the same." Zhou Gu was not sure, because he was dizzy when he saw them. They were all chosen by Su Rong, and he knew they were expensive.
The Duke's wife took a sip after hearing this.
Angry, he managed to calm down and said: "Do you know how rare it is to have clothes like yours? There is only one batch of such good materials from the royal family as tribute every year, just a few pieces of cloth. There are high-level ladies in the palace. Only then can I get half a piece of cloth, enough to make a piece of clothing. If it weren't for a major palace banquet, I would be reluctant to wear it."
Zhou Gu was even more shocked, "Is this, so rare?"
He thought that there should be a lot of imperial gifts. After all, they can all be leaked and sold to Jinxiu Pavilion.
See you tomorrow~
