Until she walked into the restaurant, Li Baolu was still confused. She had repeatedly confirmed that she and Gu Jingyun really didn't know the boy.

   The people she's met don't say they remember 100%, but they definitely have an impression, and she won't deliberately search and still have no memory at all.

   But Gu Jingyun obviously knew the other party, Li Baolu couldn't help but ask him, "Who is that person?"

   Wei Yingjie looked at Gu Jingyun with a smile.

  Gu Jingyun ignored his gaze when he was watching the show, took a teapot and poured a cup for himself and Baolu, and said, "It should be my half-brother, he looks a lot like my father."

  Wei Yingjie immediately said: "It's similar to Young Master Gu, can't Miss Li see it?"

   "Where does he look like? My family's Jingyun is like a beautiful jade, and the facial features are like my mother-in-law and uncle. How does that person resemble my family's Jingyun?"

   The corners of Gu Jingyun's happy mouth curled slightly.

   Wei Yingjie twitched the corners of his mouth and asked, "Do you dare to speak with your conscience?"

  Li Baolu immediately put her hand on her left chest and looked at him with serious eyes.

Tao Wu, who was on the side of   , finally understood, scratched his head and said, "That man really doesn't look like Mr. Gu. So he is Mr. Gu's brother? Then do you want to say hello?"

  Wei Yingjie only felt an arrow in his chest and was temporarily speechless.

   On the other hand, Li Baolu looked at him and sighed, and said seriously: "Bad eyesight is also a disease. It needs to be cured. I have some medical skills. Would you like me to take a look at it for you?"

With another arrow in his heart, Wei Yingjie gritted his teeth and said, "No, I made friends by mistake. Those eyes really need to be brighter."

  Tao Wu was embarrassed by Wei Yingjie's stare, and he coughed and muttered, "I'm telling the truth, but I really can't see what it looks like..."

   Li Baolu glanced at Wei Yingjie and snorted softly.

  Gu Jingyun took the menu directly to order, and only gave the menu to Li Baolu after ordering what he wanted to eat.

  Li Baolu glanced at the menu and ordered a large one, then passed over Wei Yingjie and handed it to Tao Wu, "Brother Tao, order a few more, you're welcome, your son lost our money, we are not bad now."

   Wei Yingjie looked at her eagerly, "What about me?"

  Li Baolu said: "You have bad eyesight, let us order it for you, you can eat whatever you order."

   "You are taking revenge."

   "Don't say it if you know it, then I will be more unscrupulous. Well, Brother Tao, we don't need to order his, he can just eat our favorite dishes."

   Tao Wu laughed out loud.

   Seeing that Wei Yingjie was so choked that he couldn't speak, Gu Jingyun couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.

  The food came quickly, and the four of us dined happily.

   Tao Wu said contentedly: "The food in the capital is still delicious."

"That's because you all ran for your life," Gu Jingyun ordered the dishes on the table: "I ate a roast suckling pig in Guangzhou. It was fragrant and soft and melted in your mouth. Today, these dishes are not comparable. The braised lion’s head eaten in Yanping is ruddy in color, fragrant and refreshing, not to mention the taste. Yanping’s is even more so, let alone Huaiyang area? Unfortunately, we changed our route on the way and we were not able to visit Yangzhou.”

  Li Baolu nodded again and again, recalling the braised lion head she had eaten at that time, and drooling: "I almost swallowed my tongue at that time, but unfortunately I am not good at cooking, otherwise I must learn this dish seriously."

   Wei Yingjie and Tao Wu were also drooling after they talked, and the dishes on the table were not very delicious.

Tao Wudao: "Actually, the best restaurants in the capital are the Zhuangyuan Building and the Delicious Food Building. Not to mention the Zhuangyuan Building, the Delicious Delicious Restaurant is known for its delicious food. Most of the chefs in it are imperial chefs. It's a pity that there are hundreds of taels of good feasts at every turn. I can't wait to eat."

  Wei Yingjie and Tao Wu both came from noble families, and they were considered upper-class in the capital, but they didn't dare to go to Zhendianlou often.

  Li Baolu did a mental calculation, one hundred taels was enough for their family of five to eat, drink and wear for a year in Qiongzhou. The annual consumption was replaced by a meal. This meal is really expensive enough, and eating delicious food also requires a price.

   And for this meal, they had six dishes and two soups, and they also asked for a pot of bamboo leaf green and a pot of fruit wine, which only cost two or three dollars.

   Sure enough, the silver of Great Chu is still very valuable.

  Li Baolu took a picture of her wallet and felt relieved.

"Are you going to the night market? The capital is still very lively at night. Because there are many scholars on this street, there are many stalls selling pen and ink, books and antiques at night. Do you want to go and have a look?" Wei Yingjie suggested. : "I'm not good at reading, but I still know a little about these things. Why don't I give you a reference?"

  There are real and fake things on the street, all depends on a pair of eyes, Wei Yingjie likes to buy treasures on this street.

  Li Baolu thought that Gu Jingyun had been staying at home for the past few days to recover from his injuries. He must have been bored. He turned to look at his face and found that he was fine, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go for a walk."

   The group went downstairs.

   A group of scholars were playing Solitaire downstairs. The boy they saw when they entered the door was standing in the middle, looking at the two people above with arrogance.

   The two of them were forced a little tight by him, sweating on their foreheads, and one of them hesitated for a moment before suddenly shouting: "The only good thing is to be quiet in old age!"

   Next, one big bead of sweat slipped down, and after a while, he said, "Quietness is unparalleled in the world."

"The two-sleeved dragon bell won't let the tears dry," Gu Lekang took the poem almost immediately, and he glanced at the two people in the first song with dissatisfaction, and said, "We have to shorten the time limit, otherwise someone will drag it to the end every time. Only export, can not help but delay time."

   "Well, after the previous person has finished speaking, the next person must pick up the poem within three breaths, otherwise it will be regarded as a failure, how?"

   There was silence in the field, and after a while, someone smiled and responded: "This method is good, you can try it."

  Gu Lekang raised his chin proudly, "Then this round will start with me. In Du Fu's "Jiangcun", the 'miniature body, what more can I ask for'."

  People:  …

  Come on, why is it so difficult to start with a word, and I can't remember what to do when my mind goes blank for a while?

  Gu Jingyun glanced at the people around Gu Lekang, raised his mouth slightly, and left the restaurant happily.

Wei Yingjie felt that his good mood was very strange, and said: "Gu Lekang inherited Gu Tanhua's ingenuity and ingenuity. It is said that he was able to write poetry at the age of three, and he worshipped Gu Daru at the age of five. He passed the Xiucai exam when he was nine years old. I heard that next year he will take the local exam. If it goes well, you may meet in the general exam. As the eldest brother, are you not worried that you will lose to him?"

  Gu Jingyun gave him a contemptuous look and asked, "Can you cheat when you can try?"

   "Not in principle."

   "Then this worry won't exist." Gu Jingyun paused and said, "He is too stupid, and with the support of those around him, if he doesn't fall over, he will be the same as Zhong Yong."

  "..." Wei Yingjie endured it, but couldn't hold back, "Aren't you as arrogant as him? I thought it was your family's tradition."

   "No," Gu Jingyun said, "I take pride in the Qin family."

  Li Baolu explained with a light cough: "Although my family Jingyun is proud, he is not conceited. His classmates like him very much, and even if they don't like him, they will not compliment him like those inside."

   "That's because he didn't wear the label of the Houfu of Zhongyong on his head."

"You're right, but can I even tell the truth from the fake? Besides, there is nothing to show off in the poem Solitaire. It's the poem of the predecessors, and it's not made by us. I just read it from the back. Why should you be proud?"

   It makes sense, but what if he hasn't seen it and can't recite it?

  Gu Jingyun was in a good mood, and he turned his head and said to Wei Yingjie, "I haven't seen Gu Tanhua yet. Do you know where he often appears? I want to see him before leaving the capital."

   Wei Yingjie swallowed and asked, "Do you need me to ask him out for you?"

  Gu Jingyun shook his head, "I don't want him to know about me before I come to the test. I just want to see him and see if he is doing well."

  Wei Yingjie said cautiously: "I heard that Gu Tanhua likes to go to the Zhuangyuan Building, where poetry festivals are often held. He is a frequent visitor there, and students love to ask him for articles."

   Gu Jingyun was even more happy when he heard the words, "Is he still in the Hanlin Academy?"

   "Yes, the emperor asked him to preside over the compilation of the history books of the previous dynasty."

   "Oh, what an honorable task, how many years did he do it?"

   Wei Yingjie swore that he heard happiness in it, he said seriously: "It's 1989."

   "Really serious," Gu Jingyun sighed and said softly, "If he spends his whole life cultivating this history book, I don't know if he will be able to make a name for himself a hundred years from now."

   Wei Yingjie twitched the corners of his mouth, this wish is ruthless, who worked so hard to get an imperial examination to compile a history book of the previous dynasty?

  I still have one book in my life, is this really my own son?

   Hearing about Gu Huaijin's current situation, both Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu breathed a sigh of relief.

   Gu Jingyun thought, it is really good that such an incompetent father rations him, and his scope of activities can be expanded a little more.

   And Li Baolu began to guess how much effort my father-in-law had done so badly in the courtroom.

  Gu Jingyun was very happy all night, while Wei Yingjie and Tao Wu sent them back with some trepidation.

   Both felt a little scary. Gu Huaijin was Gu Jingyun's father after all. Hearing that his career was not going well, Gu Jingyun was so happy. They were afraid that there would be nothing?

However, Gu Jingyun wanted to confirm Gu Huaijin's situation again. He said to Li Baolu, "Although he looks incompetent and harmless, no one knows whether he has a trump card. Concubine Lan Gui and the fourth prince are the least willing to see their uncle vindicated. The ones who came back are the Gu family, we have nothing to do with Concubine Lan Gui and the fourth prince, but the Gu family has to start paying attention."

  Gu Jingyun has always known his own life experience, and he has always known the situation of the Gu family.

  Uncle Qin wanted to keep him from knowing nothing after he came out, so he kept everything from him, so he knew that the Gu family had divorced his mother, and within two months, he married the second young lady of the Fang family for Gu Huaijin.

   And Miss Fang Er was pregnant when she entered the door, and then gave birth to Gu Lekang early.

   Gu Lekang is only one month younger than him!

Qin Xinfang is not an idiot. He only needs to calculate the time to know that there is something tricky in it, which makes him even more angry. Otherwise, the talented Gu Huaijin would not have stayed in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, and was in the same department as him. The champion Tanhua that came out has already achieved the third rank, the Chuanlu and the second-class jinshi who are worse than him, the good ones are also the third or fourth rank in the capital, and the bad ones have gone through storms and have been local officials. Opportunity, the starting point is no worse than Gu Huaijin.

But Gu Huaijin has been in the Hanlin Academy since he was in the Hanlin Academy. It has been more than ten years since he was able to transcribe imperial edicts, record the words of the emperor, and listen to political affairs. Now he is revising books every day, and he can't even hear the emperor's voice, not to mention See you.

  Gu Huaijin could no longer come out of the Hanlin Academy, and that would be the case in this life.
