Chapter 166 Hug (second update)
When entering Duke Huguo's mansion, Zhou Gu strode forward, and Su Rong followed behind him. When leaving Duke Hu's mansion, Su Rong was in front and Zhou Gu was behind. Su Rong did not walk fast, and Zhou Gu's pace was not in a hurry.
The two were silent all the way, and came to the gate of the Duke Protector's Mansion.
Su Rong stepped over the threshold, stopped and turned around, looking at Zhou Gu, his face had no expression at this time, no longer cold, no longer gloomy, no longer looking to kill, and no longer angry, the emotions were so fast, she did not expect. She thought that she would never see him again until she left the Duke Protector's Mansion, but she didn't expect that he not only took out the marriage certificate himself, watched her destroy the marriage certificate, but also offered to send her out.
She didn't know what was going on in his mind now, so she couldn't figure it out, but the engagement was over and the marriage certificate was torn up, so there was no need to guess. So, she smiled and said in a normal tone, "Brother Zhou, please stay, there is no need to send it off."
Zhou Gu stopped in his tracks, separated from Su Rong by a threshold, as if this threshold was their boundary, he squinted his eyes, his voice could not detect any emotion, and asked her, "Who was that person you fell in love with when I left Jiangning County and you came to Beijing?"
Su Rong lied and didn't make drafts. Now when he asked her, she didn't change her face, and her eyes didn't make a fuss, "It's a young man who looks two years older than you. I don't know his name yet, but I should know soon. When I know his name, I'll tell you!"
Zhou Gu nodded, "Okay, walk slowly, I won't send you off!"
Su Rong turned around, stepped down the steps, and walked away step by step along the direction she came from.
Zhou Gu kept looking at her, the girl's slender back was straight, there were fallen leaves falling on both sides of the street, she stretched out her hand to catch them, and she caught them, and then threw them into the baskets of the street sweepers without cherishing them, and let them pile up with the fallen leaves in those baskets.
He smiled and turned around. Behind him, the guard at the door closed the door with a "bang".
In the pavilion, the old Huguogong, Princess Sheng'an, and the Duke's wife didn't leave, but sat there all the time, waiting for Zhou Gu to send someone back.
During this period, the old Huguogong also briefly talked about the conversation with Su Rong. After listening to the princess Sheng'an and the Duke's wife, they all fell silent and sighed in unison.
Who would have thought that the King of Southern Chu has such a deep love for him. For so many years, the harem of the King of Southern Chu has been vacant and has no heirs, so Su Rong has become his only heir.
Mrs. Guo Gong said in a low voice: "Brother Gu doesn't know about Su Rong's background, does he? Father thinks he should be told?"
"Originally I planned to tell him, but now that the engagement has been abandoned, let's forget it." The old Huguogong shook his head, "After the results of the scientific examination are released, he intends to leave Beijing for a trip. If this is the case, let him travel with peace of mind, and there is no need to tell him. If I tell him, what can change? The little girl of the Su family has already made up her mind.
Mrs. Duke nodded.
Princess Sheng'an was about to speak when she saw that Zhou Gu had turned back. She stopped talking and looked at Zhou Gu. Anyone who was divorced would not be happy, not to mention that this child is proud in his bones.
Zhou Gumai stepped into the pavilion and came in front of Princess Sheng'an.
Princess Sheng'an stood up, stretched out her arms and hugged him, "The fate between people is determined by God, and now the little girl of the Su family has come to annul the engagement, which proves that you have no fate. Don't take it to heart. It's not because you are bad, but because she..."
She wanted to vaguely say that she had other plans, that the Duke of the Protectorate was not her choice, but Zhou Gu had already answered, "It's because she has blind eyes."
Princess Sheng'an: "..."
Can still swear at others, it can be seen that he has no intention of suffocating and suffocating himself.
She nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, that little girl is blind. Grandma's good grandson is the best. In the future, you will definitely marry a girl who is more beautiful than that little girl as your wife."
Zhou Gu fell silent.
Princess Sheng An thought this was still uncomfortable, and patted him on the back, "Good boy, there will definitely be."
She let go of Zhou Gu, and said to the Duke's wife, "You hug him too."
Zhou Gu recalled Su Rong's words "stop stepping" when he stepped over the threshold of the Duke Protector's Mansion, he twitched the corners of his mouth and said nothing.
The Duke’s wife could feel that he was in a very bad mood, but she just tried her best to restrain herself, and she also patted him on the back and praised him, "You have done a great job today, our son of the Duke Protector's Mansion, no matter when, you must not be rude. You can politely send that little girl out of the house, and everyone can see it. After the news of your ruined marriage spreads, it will not be criticized. It is a loss of self-restraint."
She let go of Zhou Gu, and said seriously: "Mother thinks you are doing a good job. Now there is no one else. If you want to cry, you can cry. Our own family will not laugh at you."
Zhou Gu looked at her mother silently, and after a while, he said, "Will grandpa hug me? If grandpa hugs me too, I won't cry."
The Duke’s wife paused, and looked at the old Hu Guogong.
The old protector of the country has always treated Zhou Gu strictly. Since he was enlightened, he has no heart to play tricks on his grandchildren. He teaches his grandchildren with sticks and beats up naughty grandchildren with military sticks. He has not hugged his grandchildren for many years.
Princess Sheng'an was immediately amused, and urged the old protector who had done a good job, "Get up and give our grandson a hug. He did a good job today, so he should be rewarded."
The old protector trembled his beard, and snorted coldly, "Did you do a good job? Who is that who rushed into my study with a little girl, and slapped the table and said harsh words to me without saying a word? I am not old, and my memory is not bad."
Zhou Gu didn't speak, just looked at him.
The old Huguogong snorted again, finally stood up, walked in front of Zhou Gu, stretched out his arms and hugged him, but cursed, "Stinky boy, what's the matter? A man who can afford it and let it go is the son of our Huguogong's mansion. Wen Neng writes to secure the world, Wu Neng rides a horse to determine the world. Don't be too affectionate, so as not to be embarrassing."
"Our son of the Huguo Gongfu, when will Wen Neng write a pen to secure the world, and Wu Neng ride a horse to fix the world?" Zhou Gu asked.
The old protector let him go, confidently, "It starts with you."
Zhou Gu shut his mouth.
This is a compliment to him both civil and military, should he be happy?
He was tired, "Xie Lin asked me out for a drink a few days ago, but I kept procrastinating. Since I have nothing to do today, I'll go find him for a drink."
Old Hu Guogong waved his hand, "Go, go, since you don't cry now, don't cry in front of others, lest you lose face and be laughed at."
"I didn't go to him to cry, but to settle accounts with him. By the way, I also cursed him, and wished him that he would never marry Qin Luan, let alone that he would never find someone like Qin Luan." Zhou Gu turned around and left.
Old Protector: "..."
He was puzzled, and warned him, "Don't fight, don't make any further disturbances to your Majesty."
Zhou Gu let out a "hmm" and left.
After Xie Lin came out of the examination room, he lay down at home for two days. After recovering, he started to go out of the house to dance. One day, he invited this one to have a drink, and the next day, he invited that one to drink.
Princess Rui'an is no longer attached to him, but instead gave her son five thousand taels of her private house to let him relax.
Xie Lin has money in his hand, but he is looking for someone to drink. He has been looking for Zhou Gu for several days, and Zhou Gu said that he is not free. After Xie Lin inquired, he heard that he has been staying in the mansion, closed the door, and every day. , Autistic, ready to choose a new path to join the army.
Today, he hadn't decided who to ask out for a drink, so he heard the report from the porter, saying: "Young master Zhou came to ask him if he's going to drink?" He jumped up from the bed stiffly, and said repeatedly: "Go, let him wait, I'll go out and find him."
