My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

After Wang Wei and Chang An discussed some more questions about the meaning of the book, they got up and said goodbye. Before leaving, Gu Li asked someone to pack some candies made by Chang An and give them to him.

Standing at the door, Chang An and Gu Li watched Wang Wei go away.

Gu Li then said, "Chang Lang, I feel that you are very optimistic about Wang Langjun and are willing to recommend him to Prime Minister Song."

Chang An took her hand, returned to the mansion, and explained: "Brother Mo Jie is a proud man. He does not want to rely on the powerful. I just introduced him. As for whether he will be favored, that is his own luck."

"Oh, I understand." Gu Li seemed to understand something and said, "Chang Lang just asked Prime Minister Song to give Wang Langjun a chance to submit his examination papers, but whether Prime Minister Song can recommend him depends on Wang Langjun's own talent."

"My mother Gu is really smart. She figured it out now." Chang An stretched out his fingers and scratched her face affectionately. "If it weren't for this, Brother Mo Jie might not be willing to accept my help."

Gu Li was rubbed on the cheek by Chang An, and he hummed a little comfortably. He asked reluctantly, "Does Chang Lang think Wang Langjun can pass the exam this time?"

"Hmm..." Chang An was stunned by the question. He stopped scratching Gu Li's face and held his chin. After thinking for a while, he said, "If you like Wang Wei's articles, then it should be no problem for me to become a Jinshi."

"After all, Brother Mojie's strength is there, it is really good."

Gu Li also nodded in agreement and said, "Mr. Wang is indeed very talented. I think he will definitely be selected."

After hearing this, Chang An immediately raised his eyebrows and picked up Gu Li, which frightened Gu Li and made him scream. He said, "Why, you are starting to think that other people's husbands are better?"

"I didn't..." Gu Li huddled in her arms, humming softly, "I just believe in Chang Lang's judgment, and I don't think Wang Langjun is good."

"Really?" Chang An deliberately moved his face closer, and his entire face was reflected in Gu Li's big eyes.

"Of course, Chang Lang is the best, and I believe in Chang Lang." Gu Li said in a flattering manner.

"What if I sold you, Gu Niang?" Chang An said deliberately again.

"No, Chang Lang will not sell me. Even if he really sells me, Chang Lang will definitely redeem me."

"You can tell at a glance that you've eaten too much sugar, your mouth is so sweet."

The two of them were talking when they returned to their room. Chang An put her on the bed, covered her face gently, and then returned to the desk to read the article Song Jing gave him today. As soon as he saw it was time to eat, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After dinner and bathing, Chang An sat on the bed, played with Gu Li for a while, and then went to bed.

The next day, Gu Li saw Chang An off to the Imperial College as usual, and then returned to her room, doing embroidery while waiting for Zhen'er to bring the medicine.

The door was opened, and Gu Li took a look and saw Zhen'er coming in with the medicine. Seeing this, she also put down the embroidery silk in her hand and made some space on the table for Zhen'er to put the medicine on.

Gu Li picked up the medicine bowl and blew on it a few times. Zhen'er then said, "Sanniang, the concierge just said that the two young masters are here."

After hearing this, Gu Li was a little confused: "Young Master? Whose young master is this? Are you here to see Chang Lang?"

Zhen Er was obviously a little surprised by Gu Li's answer, and replied awkwardly: "He is not someone's son, but... your two elder brothers, San Niang."

"Brother, they are here?" It was Gu Li's turn to be a little surprised. He didn't care that he had just taken a sip of the medicine and asked directly, "Why are they here?"

"I don't know." Zhener shook her head.

Gu Li thought for a moment, then looked at the medicine bowl in his hand and ordered, "First, have someone bring the two brothers to the courtyard, then go to the kitchen and have the servants bring some sugar and tea to entertain the two brothers first. I'll go out after I finish drinking the medicine."

"Yes, Sanniang."

Zhen'er turned and walked out of the room, leaving Gu Li alone.

Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo stood at the gate of Chang's house and waited for a long time before they saw Zhen'er coming over. After bowing to them, she said, "My two lords, Sanniang is taking medicine. Please follow me first."

When the two doormen saw that it was one of their own who spoke, they let them in.

Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo followed Zhen'er to Chang'an's yard and were taken by her to the pavilion in the courtyard.

"My two lords, please sit here and wait for a while. Sanniang will come out after she finishes drinking the medicine." Zhen'er said, and then pointed to the plate on the table, "These are the butter candies, hard candies and soft candies made by our lords. You two lords can taste them first."

The two gentlemen of the Gu family looked at the candies on the plate and felt a little curious, so they didn't touch them immediately. They looked at the candies, then looked in the direction of the room, and then Gu Baizhi asked, "How is Li'er doing now that she's married?"

"Sanniang has always been very kind," Zhen'er replied, "Every day after my son went to the Imperial College, Sanniang would stay in the house to do some embroidery or read a book."

"Then...how does Chang An treat her? Does he bully her or ignore her?" Gu Huashuo asked.

Zhen'er recalled that every day after she came to Chang's house, Chang'an and Gu Li were either curled up in the room together, being affectionate with each other, or quietly doing their own things. But she didn't know more specifics, so she answered vaguely: "The young master treats Sanniang well, I think."

"Should?" Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo looked at each other. Just as they were about to ask again, they heard a familiar voice from the side:

"Eldest brother, second brother."

The two turned their heads to look in the direction where the sound came from, and suddenly joy and doting appeared in their eyes, and then they ran over.

"Li'er!"

The two brothers came to Gu Li, their eyes full of unconcealed joy, and they lifted up her arms one by one, and then checked around. Gu Li saw the two brothers lifting her hair, pulling up her sleeves, and even pinching her cheeks. After all these operations, Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo breathed a sigh of relief, leaving Gu Li alone with some doubts.

But despite her doubts, she still led them back to the pavilion and asked with a smile, "Big Brother, Second Brother, why do you have time to come to see me today?"

"Um..." Gu Baizhi smiled a little embarrassedly and replied: "It's just the two of us. I saw that you have been married for some time, and I am worried about Chang An..."

"Big brother." Gu Baizhi was just talking when he was interrupted by Gu Li, "Chang Lang is now accepted as a student by Prime Minister Song and given the courtesy name Yonghe. Big brother, please address me by that courtesy name."

Gu Baizhi was stunned for a moment, and could only say: "It's just... it's just that since you got married for some time, we are worried that Chang Yonghe will treat you badly because of your background."

Gu Li finally understood why her brother came to see her so early in the morning and acted like that just now, so she said, "My two brothers are worrying too much. Chang Lang has always been very good to me, and he doesn't despise my background."

"But Chang Yonghe is a person who hates business, and we are a little worried..." Gu Huashuo continued.

"Chang Lang is not tired of business. He goes to the Imperial College every day and spends the rest of his time at home reviewing his lessons. He never sees any businessmen. How can he be tired of business?" Gu Li repeated what Chang An said to her on the day of their wedding.

Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo were both stunned by this. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. The two brothers coughed awkwardly, and then the eldest brother Gu Baizhi asked again:

"Has he ever bullied you?"

Gu Huashuo also echoed: "Yes, you are usually gentle and don't like to show off. I'm afraid you don't tell us when you are wronged."

"I also said that Chang Lang treats me very well. He was afraid that I would be bored, so he personally wrote novels and poetry collections to entertain me." Gu Li explained with a smile, "Not only that, Chang Lang also personally made soap for me to use for bathing. Even the candy in front of you two brothers was made by him personally for me because he knew I loved to eat candy."

Gu Baizhi didn't expect Gu Li to defend Chang An in this way, so he reminded him: "What if all this was just done to deceive you? What if he has someone else outside, wouldn't that be a betrayal to you?"

Gu Li also frowned at this time, obviously a little unhappy, and Gu Huashuo also said: "I also asked people before, that Chang Yonghe likes to go to Pingkangfang to drink and have fun, what if..."

"My two brothers," Gu Li interrupted his two brothers, his tone obviously a little angry, "Chang Lang finishes his classes at the Imperial College at noon every day. It only takes him less than an incense stick to get home from the Imperial College. The time he spends getting home every day does not exceed an incense stick."

"On weekdays, when I come home or take a day off, Chang Lang will stay in the room with me. Whenever he goes out, he will take me with him. How can I go out and look for someone else?"

"And my Chang Lang told me before that he did go to Pingkangfang to drink, but it was just for drinking. If he really hated business as you said, how could he be interested in those women in Hongyuan?"

"Besides, I have met every one of Chang Lang's friends. They are either the descendants of high-ranking officials or talented scholars. Their character and talents are obvious to all. Do you think these friends will encourage my Chang Lang to go to the Red Courtyard?"

"Even if I coughed a few times during normal days, Chang Lang would ask me how I was feeling, fearing that I might get sick from the cough, and he would personally pour me some tea to moisten my lungs. He does this every time, day after day. Is this also false?"

Listening to Gu Li's speech, the two brothers Gu Baizhi and Gu Huashuo were speechless and didn't know how to continue. They looked at each other, even on ordinary days, Gu Li would not talk so much, why did she become more talkative after marrying Chang An, and every word she said was about him.

Gu Baizhi said somewhat embarrassedly: "Then we must have misunderstood him. Li'er, please don't be angry."

Gu Li's expression eased slightly after hearing this, and he said, "You two brothers are so worried because you care about me. But please don't say such things again in the future."

"We thought he would ignore you before, but now it seems we were worrying too much." Gu Huashuo said, "Father also kept nagging about your food, clothing, and health every day."

When it comes to physical matters, Gu Li's eyes become a little dim.

"Speaking of your health, have you told Chang Yonghe about that incident?" Gu Baizhi thought of something at this time and spoke.

Gu Li shook his head and said, "Not yet..."

"I don't know whether I should tell him."

Gu Huashuo said, "We should have told him, but you insisted that you wanted to tell him in person and not let anyone else tell him, so we just let you do it."

"He should know the inside story of this matter."

"......" Gu Li didn't say anything.

"Forget it," said the eldest brother Gu Baizhi, who came out to smooth things over. "Since we decided to let you tell him in person, we will not break our promise. But you should find a time to make things clear."

Gu Li nodded and said reluctantly:

"I will."
