"My heart... my heart belongs to me, and I have decided for the rest of my life..." Xiang Zhirou murmured these words, and for a moment, she felt an indescribable deep sadness gushing out from the depths of her heart, overwhelming her. submerged.
She was like the traveler who fell into the water, sinking in grief and suffocating little by little.
But even so, she still kept her spirits up and asked: "I don't know which young lady is able to catch Mr. Gu's eyes. She must be a well-educated and sensible lady."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
"No...I don't know?" She didn't know which girl she was from, so she made a private arrangement with her for life. Thinking of this, Xiang Zhirou couldn't help but feel even sadder.
"I only know that her name is Zhirou and that she also lives in Huainan. From the correspondence, it seems that she is indeed a well-educated and sensible girl."
"The rest, I don't know at all."
"Zhi...Zhirou?"
When Xiang Zhirou heard this, her brain suddenly shut down.
After a long time, I realized something, and for a moment I couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he was a little confused and said, "Miss Xiang Yun, why are you laughing?"
"Don't you think it's a bit reckless to make a lifelong private arrangement with Gu without even seeing anyone?"
"No, no! Mr. Gu has done a great job. That girl Zhirou must also miss you like this."
"In my opinion, you are definitely a match made in heaven, a perfect match!"
"This... Miss Xiang Yun has never met Zhirou, so why would she say this?"
"emmmm, intuition!"
"Zhirou Zhirou, from the name she sounds like a good girl, Mr. Gu thinks so."
"Yes."
While the two were talking, the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion came into view.
At that moment, the two knew that it was time to say goodbye.
"Mr. Gu, a few days ago, you wrote a song "Huainan Autumn: A Gift to Xiang Bai" at Feihong Restaurant and gave it to your brother-in-law."
"Of course he is not a stingy person. He asked someone to make a jade pendant and specially gave it to Mr. Gu."
With that said, Xiang Zhirou took out a jade pendant from her sleeve.
After hearing this, Gu Beichuan took it and looked at it carefully.
I saw that this jade pendant was extremely warm. When held in the palm of my hand, it was not cold, but rather warm.
The material is also very good, the whole body is as smooth as before, and there is no flaw in the entire body.
Gu Beichuan came from a merchant family, so he was certainly not without vision.
"This... the finest Hotan mutton-fat jade?"
"Of course, the gift given to Gu Shijun must not be a petty one."
"Master Gu, you can take a look at the front of Jade."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he turned over the oval jade pendant and saw the word "Beichuan" engraved on it!
The engraving of these two characters is smooth and without any flaws.
The most valuable thing is this font!
It was actually the wild grass created by him!
Although it is just a copy, it has gained three points of charm.
How would you rate this gift?
It's priceless, and it's well spent.
Gu Beichuan really didn't expect that he and Xiang Bai would only meet a few times.
He actually has such weight in the other person's heart.
"This jade is a bit more valuable. It would be inappropriate for me to just accept it."
When Xiang Zhirou heard this, she immediately became anxious and said: "Master Gu, this is the beautiful jade that my... brother-in-law has put all his efforts into polishing. From the beginning to the end, it has not been borrowed from other people's hands."
"And the word Beichuan has already indicated its owner. If the young master doesn't want it, will this jade be scrapped in vain?"
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he immediately hesitated.
Seeing this, Xiang Zhirou decided to strike while the iron was hot and said, "Besides, giving jade to a gentleman is the beauty of adulthood."
"Gu Gongzi's song "Huainan Qiu·Gift to Xiang Bai" has brought enough fame to his brother-in-law. In comparison, this gift is just a small ceremony."
"If the young master still refuses to accept me, it means that I have never had a true relationship with my younger brother."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Xiang Yun, you are really articulate. Forget it, just keep this jade pendant down here."
Hearing this, Xiang Zhirou raised her eyebrows with joy, but then lowered her head.
He clenched his teeth, closed his eyes, and quickly hugged Gu Beichuan.
It's just that this hug broke apart at the first touch, so fast that Gu Beichuan didn't even react, and Xiang Zhirou turned around and ran towards Prince Jing's Mansion.
That kind of back view is really graceful.
Gu Beichuan stretched out his right hand and slowly pressed it on his left chest.
There was something banging there.
After a long time, Gu Beichuan shook his head and said, "No, no, no."
"If this is really the case, what will happen to Zhirou?"
…
The New Year has passed like this, and this is also the first New Year that Gu Beichuan has passed since traveling through time.
Overall, it's a bit deserted, but there are also surprises.
I just hope that it will become lively in the future.
After the New Year, it is the time when the cold is at its peak.
Most of the houses have their doors and windows closed.
Even if Feihong recruits workers to deliver food, their wages will be doubled. They will also be equipped with cotton-padded clothes and be told not to freeze in such weather.
In Nanshan Residence, next to the desk, Gu Beichuan was laying out rice paper, while Uncle Fu stood aside and studied ink.
There were several stoves around, and the rising heat dissipated the chill. This allowed Gu Beichuan to write normally, instead of having his fingers cold and difficult to bend and stretch.
After Fu Bo finished studying the ink, Gu Beichuan took the ink and wrote the first painting.
Then the wrist moved together and the fingers exerted force, and four large characters written in regular script appeared on the paper - "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
After writing the title of the book, Gu Beichuan switched to cursive writing and rewrote:
Chapter 1: The three heroes of the Taoyuan Banquet became sworn brothers, and the Yellow Turban hero was the first to make a meritorious service!
Yes, Gu Beichuan wants to write a book.
But the usefulness of this book will be revealed in the future.
Then why did you choose "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" among the four famous works?
The reason is also very simple.
Da Qian now stands in a three-way relationship with Da Yan in the north and Da Liang in the west. Isn’t it consistent with the background of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?
Furthermore, Emperor Gao, the great ancestor of Daqian, and Xiang Canglan, the overlord of Eastern Chu, also relied on the 8,000 Jiangdong disciples around him to raise an army to conquer such a territory.
This is somewhat similar to the encounter with Uncle Liu Huang.
Finally, Daqian is about to go to war with Dayan!
In this way, the Three Kingdoms, which are rich in military and war colors, are naturally the first choice.
After a long time, Gu Beichuan stopped writing and the first twenty chapters had been written.
"After some time, in the name of Feihong, a bookstore will be opened in the center of the city to sell this book."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Fu, although he couldn't understand Gu Beichuan's operation, he had no doubts at all and said, "I'll save you the trouble. I'll make sure everything is properly arranged."
"Okay, are all my brothers here?"
"Young Master, all the children from Huainan have arrived. I'm afraid it will take a while longer for those from Jiangnan."
"Then let's wait until everyone is here before starting the class. Remember to pay more attention to the matter in the bookstore. Take the manuscript for rubbing first, don't delay."
"promise."
