Bai Yitang's face was solemn. Although he had already done a good job in psychological construction, when he opened his mouth, facing Gu Jingyun, he still didn't know where to start.

  Gu Jingyun saw that he was solemn and silent, and a lot of speculation flashed in his heart. Could it be that Lingtianmen still has a secret that he doesn't know? Or is there an enemy that he is difficult to deal with? Or has the court's attitude towards Lingtianmen changed?

   "Qinghe, I love your mother, what do you think of me being your stepfather?" Bai Yitang was silent for a long time, and it was best to get straight to the point.

   The first sentence came out, and the rest was much easier. He sat on the chair generously, raised his head and looked at Gu Jingyun seriously.

  Gu Jingyun:  …

   Gu Jingyun smoothed his sleeves expressionlessly, put his hands flat on his knees, then raised his head and smiled at Bai Yitang, and said indifferently: "Master said just now, Qinghe didn't understand, please say it again."

   Gu Jingyun really didn't hear it clearly. He thought it might be because of his hearing problem, or because he was a little dizzy when he walked from the dining room to the study just now, so he heard it wrong?

   This time, Bai Yitang was silent.

   The two of them stared at each other in relative silence for a moment, before Gu Jingyun was sure that he had not hallucinated just now, the smile on his face slowly faded, and after a while, he asked, "When is it?"

"this morning."

   "...Does my mother know?"

   Bai Yitang shook his head, "I still want to trouble her."

   Gu Jingyun's heart was relieved, he lowered his eyes and thought, and rationally analyzed the pros and cons of this matter.

   His mother is still young, and her body is gradually improving. Judging from her current physical condition, it will not be a problem to live another 20 to 30 years.

   Then how will she live in these twenty or thirty years?

   Lives in Qin Mansion, accompanies his uncle and aunt to grow old together, and watches him and Baolu live. Now help with Niuniu, and later help with his children?

   His mother shouldn't be like this. He saw his mother's name in the honor wall of Qingxi Academy, and he could see her name every time he went in and out of the academy.

   Once the first talented woman in the capital, a wise and intelligent girl turned into a mediocre woman who was abandoned by her husband and died of old age?

   He doesn't care about outside rumors and evaluations, but is that kind of life his mother should live?

   She can be happier!

   If it was someone else, he would doubt the purpose of the other party, suspecting that the other party was because of his uncle, because he wanted to marry his mother, or because of his previous obsession, but this is Bai Yitang.

   He does not love power, nor does he set foot on power. He is at ease in body and mind, unparalleled, and has good character and temperament. Most importantly, he respects and likes his mother.

  Although he still doesn't understand why Master fell in love with his mother in the morning, he felt that this was not the main problem.

   The main question is, what is Bai Yitang going to do to his mother, and what does his mother think?

   "You want to marry my mother?"

   Bai Yitang nodded and said calmly: "But your mother doesn't know about this, and I don't want her to know for the time being."

  Gu Jingyun raised his eyebrows.

   "You and Baolu have always had a good relationship. If your mother can have a three-point relationship with me, I will naturally tell her frankly, but she doesn't seem to have any thoughts about me now. What do you think I should do?"

  Gu Jingyun looked at him silently, are you sure you want to ask me?

   He was a little dazed, why did Master come to ask him how to chase his mother? Shouldn't he be afraid of his opposition, and then try to hide it from him first?

  Why hide from his mother and come to him to make up his mind how to chase after his mother?

Bai Yitang didn't care whether he was in a trance or not, he just told him his plans, "I don't want to make things bigger before your mother agrees to marry me. I think you did a good job with Baolu, boil the frog in warm water, You tell me how you won her favor, I will refer to it, wait for your mother to have a deep affection for me, and then break the relationship, and then I will find a matchmaker to ask for marriage."

  Bai Yitang paused and then said, "Don't worry, I will find a way to make money. Although I can't make your mother live as decently as you did with your uncle, you can guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing."

  Gu Jingyun slowly came back to his senses, smiled at him and said, "Master, my method is not suitable for you."

   How did he trap Li Baolu firmly by his side?

   He showed weakness, and the children in the village bullied him and isolated him. In fact, he was not sad, nor would he mind, because he who bullied him would usually go back in revenge, as for isolation.

   Gu Jingyun sneered, he didn't want to play with those naive children, he didn't say it in isolation. As long as they didn't get in his way, they could have been fine.

   But Baolu didn't mind, so she helped him fight back and help him integrate into the village children.

  Although he dismissed it, he didn't want to let her down on her kindness. Besides, the relationship between the two became closer after he accepted her protection.

   At least he could feel that she was more close to him, and recognized and liked him more.

  Master, he is strong in martial arts and an adult, how could he show weakness in front of his mother and seek her protection?

   If you really want to do that, I'm afraid that what you get is not goodwill, but contempt.

   Of course, he can't always play the role of being protected, of course he is inferior to Baolu in force, but he also has other strengths.

   Such as IQ.

   He would teach her to read, teach her to correct typos, translate books for her, preview in advance, and even do homework for her behind his uncle's back, making her admire him from the bottom of her heart.

   He likes to see Baolu full of admiration and stares at him.

He would also cook her favorite snacks and meals, take her to the beach, argue with her uncle and aunt about her going into the mountains, and get up in the middle of the night to cover her with a quilt and listen to her little worries .

   They have a common secret that they have kept from the adults. They eat and live together. It took eleven years of cultivation to have today's feelings and tacit understanding. Master, he is so old, and they are adults, how can they go his way?

   Therefore, Gu Jingyun patted Bai Yitang on the shoulder, got up and said, "Master, I can't help you with this matter, so please encourage yourself."

   After he finished speaking, he turned to leave. After thinking about it, he said, "But don't worry, as long as my mother is willing, I have no objection to your marriage, but does Baolu know about this?"

  Bai Yitang had a black line all over his face and watched Gu Jingyun leave. His original intention was to ask Gu Jingyun to give him advice, but this kid ran away without a single constructive suggestion.

  Thinking of the last sentence he left, Bai Yitang became a little nervous again, he hadn't told the stupid apprentice yet.

Bai Yitang didn't really want to tell Li Baolu now, not because she was afraid of her opposition, but because she thought she was too stupid, and told her that she would definitely not be able to hide her secret, I was afraid that it would be asked by He Zipei and Qin Wenyin in less than a day. How can he cultivate feelings first?

   Don't tell her, she might be angry when she finds out someday.

  Bai Yitang was not at all worried that Gu Jingyun would reveal to Li Baolu that the bear boy had a very small heart. Although he agreed to this matter, he would definitely be happy to watch him carry such a pot, and he would definitely not tell Baolu on his behalf.

Bai Yitang expected it well. Gu Jingyun did not tell Li Baolu about it. Bai Yitang was thinking part of it, and part of it was that he was also happy to see Bai Yitang and his mother become a pair. Mother is alert.

  As a mother, if she knew Bai Yitang's thoughts, she would probably avoid him and not meet in the future, so how would they communicate their feelings?

Like Bai Yitang, Gu Jingyun felt that Baolu was not very good at covering up her emotions, especially in front of her relatives. Even if she could hide her words, she couldn't hide her expression, and her aunt and mother were both human beings. You will always feel it.

   And the three of them met almost every day. It would be foolish to want Li Baolu to hide from them, so let's hide it from Li Baolu.

Gu Jingyun returned to the room with a serious face, Li Baolu was already drowsy leaning on the pillow, she was still a little confused when she turned her head when she heard the door open, she subconsciously turned inside, gave him the outside position, and said confusedly: "You're back?"

   After speaking, he woke up a little, turned over and asked, "What secret did Master ask you to do?"

  Gu Jingyun touched her head with a serious face and said, "It's not a big deal, don't ask."

  Li Baolu saw his solemn expression, her sleepiness dissipated instantly, she hurriedly got up and said, "Is it about Lingtianmen?"

She frowned dissatisfiedly and said, "I'm already the head of the sect, why are you hiding everything from me? Last time, the same thing happened with the silver, the master told you that the silver in the box was fake as soon as we met, but kept it all alone. I didn't tell me until I was about to leave the sect, the captain of the guards and the others still haven't paid much attention to me."

  Li Baolu pouted, "It's obvious that I'm his own apprentice." Gu Jingyun was the one who took care of him, but why did he tell him all the important things?

  Gu Jingyun smiled helplessly, "Is it because you are not good at concealing yourself in front of acquaintances? If I told you, when you are familiar with the guards, you will definitely not be able to hide them. Master, this is for your own good."

It's okay for Li Baolu to cheat and deceive in front of strangers. As long as she does a good job of psychological construction, she won't even blink an eye, but it's not good for acquaintances. Maybe she can't pass the test from the heart. There are always flaws in her facial expressions. , as long as the other party's character is not bad, she can get along with people and get along well. Except for some fundamental secrets that she can keep, she will definitely expose more or less flaws.

   If the other party is not careful, that’s all, any person who observes subtle things will be suspicious.

   And, like Master's fancy to her mother-in-law, she must know the secrets that don't involve fundamental secrets today, but she will reveal the secrets tomorrow. She was raised by her aunt.

  What secrets can I hide from her?

   So Gu Jingyun decided not to tell her.

  Li Baolu also knew her weakness, so she just pouted and left it behind, just instructed: "If there is something important, you must tell me."

   "Okay, the big things must not be hidden from you."

   Li Baolu was relieved after this. She lay on the inside, patted the bed and said, "Go for a nap, there's not much time. Are you still going to the yamen in the afternoon?"

   "No," Gu Jingyun took off his coat and said with a smile: "There is no major business in the Hanlin Academy, and I will come to class in the evening, and I will accompany you at home in the afternoon."

  Li Baolu was satisfied, hugged his waist and raised his head with a smile: "Actually, it is good to be an official in the Hanlin Academy, and the time is free."
