I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

The important thing is that Yu'er is also practicing now, and the days to come are still very long. The years they have been together may be hundreds of years, or even longer.

"Okay, Yu'er, don't say any more..."

"But……"

Yu'er wanted to say something, but Gu Ming waved his hand domineeringly: "No, but, this family, I have the final say!"

……

Chapter 231 Grandpa, look, there is something in the sky...

Gu Ming had just finished taking a shower, and Master Taishan came again with a small jar of wine, as if he had timed it right.

As soon as the person arrived, he asked with concern, "Is your son-in-law not injured?"

"No, please sit down, father-in-law."

"Great, the confidant's troubles in Guobei County are finally cleared up, it's all thanks to my son-in-law..."

Gu Ming waved his hand modestly: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law didn't dare to take credit for it. It was only thanks to the help of a few experts that he was able to completely kill that old demon."

Nie Hongshu couldn't help pondering: "Then... then how should I report to the superiors? Should I also report the names of those high-ranking people and let the court reward them?"

"No, they don't like to deal with the imperial court, father-in-law doesn't need to worry about this matter, the son-in-law entertains them in private.

As for the higher-ups... Father-in-law doesn't need to mention his name, he just said that there were a few hidden masters who wiped out the old black mountain demon. "

When the conversation was about the same, Yu'er held the wine table and set them up one by one.

"Huh? Something's wrong with this girl, Yu'er, today? Why? Do you have something on your mind?"

Nie Hongshu saw that Yu'er looked preoccupied and not as cheerful and lively as in the past, so he subconsciously asked.

"No, no, thank you for your concern, master."

Yu'er quickly waved her hand.

It's no wonder, it's just that I dare not admit it.

Nie Hongshu also asked questions lazily, and while drinking with Gu Ming, they chatted about the extermination of demons in Montenegro.

At this time, Yu'er finally put aside her complicated thoughts, sat down and listened with relish to listening to my uncle's story of fighting against the Montenegro old demon.

"At the critical juncture, another expert rushed over and joined us to deal with the old Black Mountain demon..."

After listening to it, Nie Hongshu looked rejoicing: "God bless my Guobei County... By the way, son-in-law, since Montenegro is already peaceful, can we move some villagers in so as to save the deserted mountain."

Gu Ming shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't work in a short period of time. For one thing, Montenegro's reputation is too fierce, and the people are afraid of it.

Secondly, Montenegro has been permeated with evil spirits for thousands of years, and the mountains are dead and silent. It will also take time to slowly recover. It is estimated that it will take about ten years. "

"Well, it makes sense..." Nie Hongshu nodded thoughtfully.Then he smiled and said, "Then I don't have to worry about Montenegro anymore."

In ten years, even if he doesn't get promoted, he will have to be transferred to another place to take up the post according to the rules. The new county magistrate will have to worry about the affairs of Montenegro.

When the wine was in full swing, Nie Hongshu couldn't help but said: "My son-in-law, Mr. Chen sent a letter saying that the magistrate recommended me to the court and wants to transfer me to the government office..."

"Oh? This is a good thing. After all, the chances of promotion are even greater in the government office."

"But I don't want to go... In fact, I have already planned to apply for resignation when the term of office is about to expire, plant flowers and grass at home, and live a few years of leisure."

Upon hearing this, Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help asking: "Daddy, you are not too old, why don't you want to be promoted?

Besides, Gu Lang is now an official in the capital, which is also an opportunity for you.The magistrate recommended you, he must also want to show Gu Lang good..."

"Silly girl, that's the problem."

Nie Hongshu couldn't help sighing.

"Our father and son are in the officialdom together, which seems like a good story, but the pros and cons are equal.

I don't care, the official's words are light, like the sun is fading away.But the son-in-law is different, he is very tall, and his future is hard to limit.

However, it will also arouse the jealousy of many ministers in the DPRK and China.

They may not be able to deal with the virtuous son-in-law, but there is no guarantee that they will not attack me...

Of course, I'm not afraid of this, but because if something goes wrong with me, it will inevitably involve my son-in-law, which will affect his future. "

Having said that, Nie Xiaoqian suddenly realized.

Indeed, such consecutive incidents can be described as endless in officialdom.

Let alone Weng and his son-in-law, even relatives, friends and even fellow countrymen may be implicated.

Although Nie Hongshu has not been an official for a long time, he is well aware of the truth in this regard, so he would rather not be an official than to hold back his beloved son-in-law.

Hearing these words, Gu Ming couldn't help saying: "Father-in-law, entering an official career has always been your wish, how can you give up lightly?

Son-in-law, you don't have to worry too much here, don't give up your future because of this. "

"My son-in-law, today is different. You and Xiaoqian are married, we are all one family, your future is more important than anything else.

As long as you and Xiaoqian are happy and harmonious, it doesn't matter if I become an official or not..."

Speaking of this, Gu Ming couldn't persuade him anymore.

From the bottom of his heart, he is not interested in official career, after all, he is different from ordinary people.

The reason why he became an official was also to improve his realm and strength.

When the time is right, I will resign and return to my hometown to set up a college, practice, and enjoy family relationships with peace of mind...

And Gu Ming guessed that there should be another reason why the father-in-law didn't want to move up, and that was the mother-in-law.

Presumably, after the husband and wife met last time, the father-in-law's philosophy of life was changed, or in other words, his life was filled with hope again.

Isn't it a kind of happiness to spend a few years at home quietly and wait for the return of his wife?

"Father-in-law, otherwise, since you have made up your mind, my son-in-law will stop persuading you.

At present, the best thing for you is to stay in Guobei County. After all, your political achievements in Guobei County are obvious to all, and it is not so easy for others to blackmail you.

Even if someone really wants to get rid of you, no matter who he is..."

Having said that, a cold light flashed in Gu Ming's eyes, and he continued: "I will definitely make the other party pay a painful price!"

"Yeah!" Nie Hongshu nodded with satisfaction: "It's just that... the magistrate has already reported to the court. If the superior really wants to transfer me to Jinhua Mansion, what should I do?"

"So this matter must be done first... In this way, I will write a letter to the prefect of Jinhua in a while, saying that my father-in-law has just made some achievements in Guobei County, and it would be a pity to be transferred now.

It's better to wait two more years and accumulate more political achievements, which will be more conducive to future promotion.In this way, the matter can be delayed. "

"Haha, that's great. I have a letter written by my virtuous son-in-law. I believe the magistrate will definitely pay attention to it."

To put it bluntly, the prefect of Jinhua wrote to the imperial court to recommend Nie Hongshu. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was to show favor to Gu Ming, that is, to choose to stand in line.

Although Gu Ming's current official rank is the same as his fifth rank, but the status and future of the two are not the same.

When Gu Ming got married, the emperor, empress dowager, empress, several noble concubines, and Prince Qing all sent congratulatory gifts. How many people in the world can receive this honor?

If you don't hug your thigh now, is it possible to wait and see, and wait until Mr. Gu enters the cabinet before hugging?

At that time, I couldn't even hug him.

Therefore, if Gu Ming wrote a letter at this time, how could the prefect of Jinhua refuse to follow it?

After drinking to his heart's content, Nie Hongshu left just now.

After sending off his father-in-law, Gu Ming returned to the courtyard and found Yu'er looking at him pitifully, with pleading eyes.

Gu Ming could understand the look in her eyes, she was begging him not to mention what he said before to Miss.

This is not an act of hers, she is sincere and does not ask for fame, she just wants to be a maid with peace of mind by the side of Gu Ming and his wife.

It is also because of her innocence and desirelessness that Gu Ming loves her and is willing to give her a name.

If it were the kind of girl who was thinking carefully all day long, let alone giving her a title, she would have been changed long ago.

"Xiaoqian, come in, I'll discuss something with you."

"Oh!"

Nie Xiaoqian responded and walked into the house.

"Grandpa, look quickly, there is something in the sky..."

Yu'er was quick to gain wisdom, and raised her finger to the sky.

Sure enough, Nie Xiaoqian stopped and looked up at the sky.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu'er hurriedly bowed to Gu Ming repeatedly, begging him not to say anything.Because, she guessed that the uncle must mention what he told her before.

As for this matter, she couldn't take the initiative to talk about it in front of the young lady, for fear that the young lady might misunderstand that it was she who brought it up on her own initiative.

Gu Ming pretended not to see, and raised his eyes to look at the sky...

"Yu'er, why are you exclaiming? What's in the sky?"

Nie Xiaoqian looked at it for a while, then frowned and asked Yu'er.

Yu'er squeaked: "There are... there are stars..."

"puff!"

Gu Ming couldn't help laughing out loud.

Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help squinting her eyes, subconsciously looked at Yu'er, then at Gu Ming, and vaguely guessed something...

Before she told Yu'er to accompany Gu Ming tonight, it was actually after careful consideration.

According to her original plan, she originally asked Yu'er to go to the capital with Gu Ming, so as to take care of Gu Ming's daily life.

In the end, Gu Ming disagreed, saying that Yu'er had to stay at home to take care of her, and that Yu'er was at a critical moment of cultivation, so it was better to stay at home.

Therefore, Nie Xiaoqian decided to let Yu'er accompany Gu Ming before he left home.

Her purpose is actually to let Yu'er give birth to a child for Gu Ming...

"baffling!"

Nie Xiaoqian gave Yu'er a dissatisfied look, and then walked into the room.

Seeing that the door was closed, Yu'er was troubled... She wanted to eavesdrop, but she didn't dare.

She was really afraid that the lady would be angry and scold her.

If the miss misunderstands her and wants to drive her away...what should she do?

Thinking of this possibility, Yu'er couldn't help sitting in the courtyard and wiping away tears.

Ying Ning was quite sensible, and ran to Yu'er's feet and yelled softly, as if to comfort her.

house.

Gu Ming turned to Nie Xiaoqian with a fake face and asked, "Ma'am, what do you mean? Why did you suddenly order Yu'er to accompany me?"

"People are also kind..."

Nie Xiaoqian replied a little aggrieved.

"I know you have good intentions, but... Yu'er is still young..."

"Husband, I know you love Yu'er. Actually... Actually, I didn't arrange it casually. I thought about letting her give birth to you. In the future..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help rubbing his forehead: "Wait, what are you talking about? Do you want Yu'er to accompany me because you want her to have a baby?"

"That's right, you also heard from your mother the other day, she said that I might not conceive a child in the next few years, so... After thinking about it, the most suitable candidate is Yu'er.

Of course, I won't lose her, and when she has one, my husband will take Yu'er as his concubine and give her a title..."

"Uh...why do you want to be with me? In fact, that's why I'm looking for you.

Of course, I don't mean the matter of having children..."

Gu Ming recounted the conversation he had with Yu'er when he took a shower in the afternoon.

"I brought this up on my own initiative. Yu'er was afraid that you might misunderstand, so she kept begging me not to tell you. She said that she doesn't ask for fame, as long as she can stay with us."

Hearing this, Nie Xiaoqian was quite moved and emotional.

"Oh, this silly girl..."
