Chapter 2 Just This
Although Gu Yu didn’t hold out much hope for saving Director Qingshan, he didn’t stop Gu Qingheng either.
After all, with this reason, they could return as soon as possible.
If they stayed in the capital, besides endless guests, neither he nor his little wife would have time to spend together.
So, it was better to leave!
Moreover, they had been in the capital for quite some time, and it was time to go back.
Now, without Gu Yu even having to speak, Gu Qingheng had already explained things almost completely… Regarding Director Qingshan, who taught Gu Qingheng to study, even if Gu Qing felt reluctant to part with his son and daughter, he would not stop them now.
This made Gu Yu have to sigh that the attitude of ancient people towards teachers was different from that of modern times!
If it were him telling his father-in-law that he wanted to go back, he would definitely be called to the study for a scolding and to be urged to have children…
Thinking of this, Gu Yu felt very unfair.
However, he didn’t dare to say anything to his father-in-law, for fear of being asked three consecutive questions.
Are you ready?
When do you want children?
Are you pregnant?
Regarding Gu Qing’s urging to have children, Gu Yu felt that even the gossipy old women in Yang Family Village couldn’t compare to his father-in-law’s urging!
Fortunately, they would be leaving soon!
From then on, even if Gu Qing took him to various gatherings, Gu Yu had no complaints.
He just waited to leave, and when he returned to Yang Family Village, he could relax comfortably!
It was much more leisurely than in the capital!
Gu Mengyao also felt sorry for Gu Yu accompanying people to socialize and didn’t want her little husband to be too tired, so she stubbornly shortened the time by more than half and left the capital in advance.
Regarding his beloved daughter, Gu Qing didn’t want to upset her.
Therefore, Gu Qing didn’t obstruct them further.
As they set off on the road back home with more than a dozen carriages of gifts, Gu Yu was extremely excited.
Even the desolate scenery around him seemed beautiful.
Seeing this, Gu Qingheng, who was in the same carriage, thought that his brother-in-law might have been so happy that he had gone foolish…
It was just going home, why be so excited?
Too childish!
“Qingheng, the Alliance just sent me news that Tang Lian is waiting for you in Lian Town.”
When Gu Yu saw Gu Qingheng’s scornful look, his eyebrows couldn’t help but raise upwards, and what he said next made Gu Qingheng’s eyes widen in shock, completely not expecting Sister Lian’ to come!
However, perhaps his brother-in-law was lying.
“This is a letter from the Alliance, you can take a look.”
Gu Yu knew that he couldn’t make Gu Qingheng believe him with just two sentences, so he immediately produced the evidence.
A thin piece of letter paper, without many words written on it, but after Gu Qingheng read it, he became spirited.
It’s true!
Sister Lian really was waiting for him in Lian Town!
Heh heh, he knew it… Sister Lian wouldn’t lie to him and had really come to find him.
When Gu Yu saw the silly smile on Gu Qingheng’s face, he immediately cast a disdainful glance, thinking that his younger brother-in-law looked too unsightly with his foolish smile!
Just this!
He had looked down on him just now…
This childish brat, he was still far from being able to compete with him!
However, Gu Yu wasn’t lying.
When he received the news before, even Gu Yu was surprised, thinking that Tang Lian was very busy now, how could she have time to specifically come to find Gu Qingheng?
But his doubts were immediately answered after thinking about it for a moment.
After displaying powerful strength, the Tang Sect wanted to have a closer relationship with him, and it was obviously the most suitable way to start from Gu Qingheng.
After all, Gu Qingheng and Tang Lian were in love, and it wasn’t like forcing a marriage.
And if they wanted to give Gu Yu women, even if they didn’t consider Gu Yu’s reaction, Gu Mengyao, who was already promoted, couldn’t afford to offend them.
Therefore, binding Tang Lian and Gu Qingheng together.
It would be much simpler.
Gu Yu didn’t dislike this at all.
He even thought that the Tang Sect’s approach was very good and saved a lot of trouble.
Anyway, he was going to cooperate with the Tang Sect, and the more Tang Lian grew more beautiful and outstanding, Gu Yu had previously worried that the Tang Sect would be dissatisfied with his younger brother-in-law!
It was also true that Gu Qingheng had not yet participated in the imperial examination, and before his strengths were displayed, he indeed looked like a weak chicken.
However, when Gu Qingheng took the imperial examination next year, he would shine.
The Tang Sect would definitely not imagine.
Their future son-in-law was a very capable person.
And Gu Yu, as the brother-in-law, was even more proud, after all, his younger brother-in-law was also raised by him.
There was always the joy of a fattened pig finally being sent to market.
“No, I have to hurry the coachman and tell him to go faster! I can’t let Sister Lian wait too long. If she has another mission, we won’t be able to meet!”
Upon thinking of Tang Lian, Gu Qingheng immediately couldn’t sit still.
Feeling the slow speed of the carriage at this moment, he quickly lifted the curtain and prepared to go out to have a good talk with the coachman.
Gu Yu didn’t bother with Gu Qingheng, but reached out and opened the carriage window, poking his head out to look at Gu Mengyao, who was riding a horse and galloping outside, suddenly having the urge to go out and ride a horse as well.
Thinking of this, Gu Yu didn’t hesitate any longer, but followed closely in Gu Qingheng’s footsteps and got out of the carriage.
When the accompanying personnel warmly brought horses, they originally wanted to take Gu Yu for a ride, fearing accidents along the way.
The people who followed were all guards from the Gu Residence.
They also had some understanding of this delicate son-in-law.
If he really fell while riding a horse, they couldn’t take responsibility.
But Gu Yu directly shook his head at the guards’ reminder, indicating that it wasn’t necessary.
He had a way.
Gu Yu first took a carrot out of his sleeve and stuffed it into the mouth of the horse that was being led, then a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
No matter how wild this horse was, after eating the carrot soaked in spring water, it was completely irresistible to such a delicacy.
Indeed, under the surprised gaze of the guards, the horse, which was not cooperating at first, was now completely obedient to Gu Yu, as docile as if it were a different horse.
Gu Yu didn’t waste any more time, but directly mounted the horse, took out another carrot as temptation, and made the horse speed towards Gu Mengyao.
The sun set, and two horses chased each other one after the other.
Due to the excessive speed, the wind whistled in their ears, and stray hair was blown behind their ears by the wind.
Even though they were tossed around, the feeling of galloping on horseback was extremely exhilarating.
It allowed Gu Yu to relax for once, throwing all the thoughts in his heart aside, only enjoying the current happiness.
After the two horses galloped for a while, the horse in front suddenly slowed down, and the horse chasing behind also slowed down with it.
“Ayu, we can finally go home!”
“Mm, I can’t wait!”
Seeing Gu Yu catch up, Gu Mengyao couldn’t help but smile slightly, then her outstretched hand was tightly held by Gu Yu, and a gentle smile appeared on her face as well.
