Chapter 359 Extra Story 03 Letters

is her!

At the gate of the bookstore, a young woman in her early twenties was wearing a snow-blue skirt embroidered with wisteria flowers. Her jet-black silk was simply tied with a fluffy bra, and a delicate white magnolia silver was inserted between her hair. The hairpin, the body of the hairpin made of silver, and the head of the hairpin are two white magnolias carved from suet white jade, which are lifelike.

That beautiful face seemed to glow under the sun, like a red rose in midsummer, extraordinarily bright and gorgeous.

From the second floor of the bookstore, Yu Chaoyun stared blankly at Gu Yanfei on the street with complicated emotions.

She hasn't changed at all!

Suddenly, Yu Chaoyun recalled the scene when he saw Gu Yanfei for the first time at the Shanglinyuan hunting ground eight years ago.

What happened that day seemed like yesterday, but also like a dream.

I haven't seen you for eight years, but Gu Yanfei is still so beautiful... no, she is even more beautiful than before!

Like a delicate flower.

Bright eyes are good at looking, majestic and elegant, so gorgeous and dazzling, especially those eyes that are brighter than stars seem to suck away people's souls.

Some passers-by who passed by involuntarily cast their eyes on Gu Yanfei, and looked at her twice more.

A sentence came to Yu Chaoyun's mind: Beauty is in the bone but not the skin.

And what about myself?

Yu Chaoyun subconsciously raised his hand to touch his face, the feeling of the touch was extremely rough.

Obviously she is only one or two years older than Gu Yanfei, but now she looks more than ten years older than her actual age. Her skin is sallow and haggard, with wrinkles on her forehead and eyes, and her cheeks are not only swollen, but also have many yellowish brown spots.

After being convicted from the Yu family, her fate changed completely and she fell to the bottom.

She and the other female family members of the Yu family recovered their lives, and were dispatched for three thousand miles to serve hard labor in the northwest frontier until three years ago, the Supreme Emperor Chu Qi abdicated the throne to Jinshang Chu Yi, and the new emperor ascended the throne and amnesty the world. The surviving Yu family members were pardoned.

Uncle Yingying picked her up from the northwest and arranged a marriage for her. The surname "Yu" has long been cast aside by everyone. Naturally, the marriage that Yinggong arranged for her was not much better. Ordinary merchants.

Yu Chaoyun also tried to resist, but the Duke of England said that if she didn't marry, she would be sent to a nunnery, and she would have to marry a vulgar man ten years older than her. Merchants act as successors.

She will come to the capital this time with her husband to say hello to the British prince, and they will leave the capital and return to Yuzhou the day after tomorrow.

She wanted to buy some enlightenment books for her son before leaving Beijing, but she didn't expect to run into Gu Yanfei here.

Now she and Gu Yanfei are far apart.

Gu Yanfei is in the clouds, she is the most honorable woman in the Dajing Dynasty after the majestic country, and she, Yu Chaoyun, is just mud on the ground to be trampled on.

Yu Chaoyun couldn't help clenching his fists tightly, his eyes were so dry that they hurt.

In the next moment, a six or seven-year-old boy in purple clothes stepped out of the green-covered carriage beside Gu Yanfei.

Fair skin, clear nose bridge, beautifully shaped phoenix eyes, beautiful and exquisite facial features, the little man behaves gracefully and self-possessedly, even the posture of getting off the carriage is as if measured by a ruler.

After the boy landed, he turned around and shouted into the carriage: "Sister!"

A girl in a purple jacket put one hand on the boy's hand, stepped on the horse stool and slowly got out of the carriage.

The girls are as tall as the boys, and their looks are almost identical, only the hairstyle and clothes are different. When the two children stand together holding hands, they look like two boys under the seat of Guanyin, carved from jade.

The appearance of the two children suddenly attracted the attention of more passers-by.

"Brother Yun!"

"Sister Zhen!"

Like a gust of wind, Wei Jiaoniang rushed out from the restaurant opposite the bookstore, staring at the twins with bright eyes, she couldn't see Gu Yanfei at all.

Wei Jiaoniang's heart is about to melt, this pair of dragon and phoenix twins is simply the combination of the advantages of Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei, they are beautiful and perfect.

"Auntie."

The two children saluted Wei Jiaoniang decently, and then smiled at Gu Yanfei obediently, as if to say, Mother, are we doing well?

Gu Yanfei smiled in satisfaction and nodded slightly.

She and the two children had agreed in advance that when they went out to play in the palace, they would salute whatever they wanted to their elders, regardless of the monarch or his subjects.

"Good boy!" Wei Jiaoniang bent down and touched the top of Chu Yun's hair, and then touched the top of Chu Zhen's hair, smiling from ear to ear.

At this time, the clerk of the bookstore came out quickly, and greeted several people cheerfully: "Madam, young master, young miss, do you want to buy books? Please come inside."

"Our shop has a full collection of books. There are three books and four classics, history and astronomy, geography and water conservancy, Buddhist scriptures, agricultural and medical books, musical scores and miscellaneous books."

"..."

Amidst the voices of the assistant talking eloquently, the four of Gu Yanfei filed into the bookstore.

On the first floor of the bookstore, four or five scholars were picking and reading books. The clerk was afraid that the scholars would bump into the female relatives, so he hurriedly said: "You two ladies should go to the second floor, there are few people on the second floor."

Wei Jiaoniang also thought the idea was good, and immediately agreed, "Let's go to the second floor."

When the group reached the stairs, Wei Jiaoniang bent down to hug little Chuzhen, and suggested enthusiastically, "Sister Zhen, can auntie carry you up?"

"Auntie, I'll go by myself." Chu Zhen shook her head obediently, pursed her small pink mouth that looked like petals, and curved her lips into a smile.

The little man like a jade carving blinked his black eyes, which made people's heart tremble.

Chu Yun hurriedly said, "Auntie, my sister and I will go by ourselves."

When the two children look at people with a smile, they must be so cute and cute, so cute.

Wei Jiaoniang felt that there was a villain screaming in her heart, and she really wanted to hug the two children from left to right, and sighed in her heart: These are the children of other people's family!

Her family's Da Lang is a brat who can't be regarded as a dog. He flies into the sky every day and is extremely energetic. She made a big mess with her head and two big ones. .

"Okay, you go on your own." Wei Jiaoniang asked the two children to go up the stairs slowly while holding on to the handrail of the stairs, and cast an envious look at Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei and Wei Jiaoniang followed behind the twins.

The second floor is very spacious. In addition to rows of bookshelves, there are several small private rooms. Some people read books in the private rooms, some copy books, and some drink tea to rest.

The twins cheerfully went to search for books by themselves.

Wei Jiaoniang glanced at the twins from time to time, her eyes were extremely gentle, "Yan Fei, why don't we take them to the flower and bird market and the horse farm after shopping around the bookstore?"

What Wei Jiaoniang thought was, what's so interesting about the bookstore, it's boring and boring.

"Next time." Gu Yanfei laughed, and casually took a copy of "Taishang Dongxuan Lingbao, the Supreme and Wonderful Sutra of Immeasurable Human Beings" from the bookshelf, and flipped through it, "Once the two of them entered the bookstore, how could they come out? It’s not a problem to play all day.”

"Yan Fei, you two children are so good!" Wei Jiaoniang said with emotion, "My Da Lang is not good enough, he is beaten in the palm of his hand every day in the ethnology... My mother also said that Da Lang is like me in this way." Humph, how could I have been so disobedient when I was a child."

The two were chatting with each other with a smile, and their voices clearly reached the ears of Yu Chaoyun who was hiding behind a certain bookshelf.

Yu Chaoyun's nails sank deeply into the tender palm, his eyes were dim.

When Gu Yanfei and the others went upstairs, she subconsciously hid, not wanting Gu Yanfei and Wei Jiaoniang to see her.

She was afraid to see contempt, sympathy, or even disgust on their faces.

Inexplicably, she thought of the red gold butterfly collar inlaid with seven treasures that was trampled by Gu Yanfei. Now she is like that trampled gold collar.

Yu Chaoyun pinched his palm even harder, his whole body was cold and numb, his heart seemed to be soaked in a cold quagmire.

She can never stand up again!

Looking at Chu Yun, who was six to seven points similar to Chu Yi, and thinking of her three-year-old son's fat head, big ears, and dull appearance, this conclusion came to Yu Chaoyun's heart clearly and cruelly.

The dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix... the son of the snake mouse is still a snake mouse.

A line of hot tears slipped down from the corner of her eyes, blurring her vision, and Yu Chaoyun's plump body trembled, when she heard the little girl's soft voice coming from the front: "Mother."

She wiped away her tears with her fingers, quietly poked out half of her face from behind the bookshelf, and saw the little Chu Zhen walking towards Gu Yanfei holding an old book in both hands, smiling like a flower.

Chu Yun followed behind the twin sister like a shadow, like her most loyal guardian.

"Mother, I found a very interesting old book." Little Chu Zhen handed Gu Yanfei a book with a blue cover, her black and white eyeballs were shining brightly.

"Mother, read it quickly, this book is very interesting."

The six-year-old girl is at an age where she likes to share everything with her mother. She has to tell her mother about everything she sees, interesting or annoying.

Seeing this scene, Wei Jiaoniang was both envious and jealous, and the phrase that her family's brat is always saying is "Mother doesn't understand".

Wei Jiaoniang couldn't help thinking: Maybe it would be nice to add a younger sister to her Dalang, then she would have a caring little padded jacket.

Wei Jiaoniang leaned over to talk to the little girl with a smile: "Sister Zhen, can Auntie take a look too?"

Chu Zhen showed a shy smile and nodded.

She moved her little finger on the opened page, and said enthusiastically: "Mother, Auntie, the method of brewing wine written in this book is very interesting, it is said that it can make the purest and strongest wine, mother." Honey, can we go back and try?"

Gu Yanfei smiled and nodded.

Chu Zhen not only likes to read books, but especially likes those ingenious techniques. She has read "Tiangong Kaiwu" over and over again at a young age, and even made wooden cows and horses, sleeve arrows, and continuous crossbows with her own hands.

Gu Yanfei and Chu Yi have always pampered their children. Except for the necessary homework, they can learn whatever they want in other aspects.

Not to mention the Supreme Emperor Chu Qi, who wished to pluck the moon from the sky and give it to his grandchildren.

"Mother, this book also contains methods for making sugar..." Chu Zhen happily turned another page.

Gu Yanfei didn't pay much attention to the book at first, but when she saw the handwriting clearly, her heart skipped a beat.

Very familiar handwriting.

She has seen the handwriting many times.

Gu Yanfei's pupils fluttered slightly, and he said with a complicated expression: "Is this book called "Tingzhi's Diary"?"

Chu Zhen blinked in surprise, and blurted out, "Mother, how do you know?"

Gu Yanfei slowly closed the book. The blue book cover was worn out, and the words "Tingzhi's Diary" were written on it, but the title was slightly damaged due to the age of the book.

This book actually appeared "again", and in this way!

In her previous life, she found this "Tingzhi's Diary" by chance after Jiji, but not in this bookstore.

At that time, she couldn't understand what was written in "Tingzhi's Diary", until her elder brother Gu Yuan injured his leg and was not good at walking. The bookstore buys all kinds of medical books, medicine books and miscellaneous books.

She accidentally discovered the method of making wine and sugar in this "Diary of Ting Zhi", and thought that maybe she could use the secret recipe of sugar making to make a living. government.

In her previous life, she was too lonely and too easy to trust others. She thought that Yu Chaoyun was her only friend and could be trusted. However, Yu Chaoyun betrayed her and stole "Tingzhi Diary".

Yu Chaoyun also gave the method of making sugar to the British princess, and the British princess opened several shops in Beijing and began to sell white sugar and cotton candy in large quantities. These two kinds of sugar became popular in the whole scene. The British princess made a lot of money, but Gu Yanfei's only way out was cut off.

Gu Yanfei in her previous life hated Yu Chaoyun for betraying her, and also hated Yu Chaoyun for stabbing her.

"Dengdengdeng..."

Suddenly there was a sound of rushing downstairs from the right rear.

Gu Yanfei and Wei Jiaoniang subconsciously followed the sound, only to see a cramped figure from the back, a woman wearing a half-new blue jacket and skirt hurriedly walked down the stairs, with a neatly combed bun on her head. I picked up a wooden hairpin.

The clerk downstairs shouted nervously: "Madam, be careful when you go downstairs, and walk slowly."

Yu Chaoyun didn't dare to slow down at all, instead he walked even faster, almost as if he was fleeing.

"Huh? This person seems familiar..." Wei Jiaoniang muttered softly, "Have I met him somewhere?"

She frowned and thought about it for a while, then she gave up after thinking about it for a while.

She has seen many people.

Wei Jiaoniang looked away, and went to look at the "Tingzhi Diary" in Gu Yanfei's hand.

Gu Yanfei stared fixedly at the stairs, a flash of light flashed in her eyes until the blue figure disappeared from her vision.

"Mother," Chu Yun asked keenly, standing straight beside Chu Zhen, "Do you know this book?"

Chu Zhen tilted her ruddy face with curiosity.

Even Wei Jiaoniang was aroused curiosity.

Gu Yanfei glanced at the three curious faces, and said in a rare way: "You have also heard of this book."

Wei Jiaoniang was confused, and repeated ""Tingzhi's Diary"" several times, but she still couldn't remember it.

Chu Zhen took the book from her mother, flipped through the pages, thinking seriously.

Chu Yun frowned, and touched her chin with one hand.

Gu Yanfei raised her lips and smiled when she saw her son's small movements, and the next moment, Chu Yun's clear eyes met hers, and he asked tentatively, "Mother, could it be..."

Gu Yanfei nodded, smiling.

Wei Jiaoniang was almost scratching her head, thinking that Gu Yanfei was really led by Chu Yi.

Chu Yun was affirmed by her mother, and confidently said with her hands behind her back: "Great-great-grandfather Chu Jing, named Tingzhi."

Wei Jiaoniang blinked, then blinked again, feeling as if a bolt of lightning had struck her heart.

Not many people know the name of Emperor Taizu. Even Gu Yanfei only knew about it after reading some essays left by Taizu in the palace after marrying Chu Yi in this life.

Wei Jiaoniang suddenly felt that the dilapidated book in front of her suddenly became radiant.

This turned out to be the legendary "Taizu Handbook"! !
