Chapter 381 Gu Xian's Marriage (1)
Chen Shaozhou received twenty-four betrothal gifts, and Mrs. Gu was also preparing to buy the same number of betrothal gifts.
Mrs. Qi was afraid that she would not be able to do anything in her energy, so she asked Zong to help her arrange it.
After the day, Zong returned home, so tired that he lay on the chair and asked the maid to pinch her shoulders and beat her legs.
Qi Xiangdi walked in with a happy look on his face: "Wanyu, where is the mother?"
Gu Xian was going to get married, so Old Mrs. Gu moved back. It is okay to live on weekdays, but it is not easy to get married at a relative's house.
Zong Wanyu stood up and helped Qi Xiangdi untied his cloak: "Mom went to my aunt's house. Is there any happy event to see you are so happy?"
Qi Xiangdi said: "Just got the news, Qingshu passed the Wenhua Hall exam and was still the first place."
"It's actually the number one, no wonder my mother and aunt Zong praised Qingshu Conghui for her ability to study." Zong Wanyu said: "I have to tell my mother and aunt the news of this number to make them happy."
When Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Gu heard this, they both laughed from ear to ear.
Mrs. Qi said happily: "It's okay to pass the exam with Qingshu's grades. I just didn't expect that this child would be so successful in the exam. First place, this is the female top scorer!"
After saying that, Mrs. Qi glanced at Qi Xiangdi: "It's much better than you two brothers."
Fortunately, the eldest son was finally the second place, but the second son couldn't say that he didn't even pass the Jinshi exam.
After so many times, Qi Wangming didn't want to take the exam again. Under the guidance of Mr. Qi, he is now the county magistrate of Jiaoyang County under Pingzhou.
Old Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Fu Ran told me that Qing Shu would be admitted to Wenhua Hall in the future, but I even thought she would coax me! I didn't expect that I would actually pass the exam and remain the first place."
Zong Wanyu said with a smile: "My cousin is about to marry, and Qingshu has won the first place in the exam again. This is a double happiness."
When Mrs. Gu was happy, she rewarded the servants in the mansion with a monthly salary of one month.
Gu Xian said happily when she heard the news: "Qingshu is so good at studying, she must be like me!"
Old Mrs. Gu laughed and scolded: "I'm so ashamed that I didn't even pass the Beijing Girls School exam."
That night, An An crawled in the arms of Mrs. Gu: "Grandma, I want to go to the capital with you to visit my sister."
"Okay, when we go to the capital to visit your sister." After that, Old Mrs. Gu touched An An's forehead and said softly: "Your father is also in the capital, so you can also visit him."
An An looked up at Old Mrs. Gu and asked carefully: "Can you go see him?"
The word Gu's father has become a taboo. As long as An An talks about it, Gu Xian will scold him. Once the number of times is too many, An An dares not mention it again.
Old Mrs. Gu said, "I know you want to see him. If you want to see him, then go and see him! However, your sister said Cui could not tolerate her, so she did not live with your father and others in the capital. You can go to see him, but you can't live in the Lin family."
An An nodded quickly and said, "Grandma, I just want to see what he looks like. Do I look like him?"
Gu Xian also had a good home, Qingshu was admitted to Wenhua Hall, and everything was developing positively. Old Mrs. Gu’s hatred for Lin Chengyu was not as strong as before.
"You don't look like him, you look very much like your grandfather."
An An asked, "Grandma, can you tell me about my sister's affairs?"
Although she hadn't seen Qingshu yet, she often heard Mrs. Gu mention it and knew that Qingshu was smart and caring.
As he listened, An An fell asleep.
Old Mrs. Gu gently touched An An's head and said, "My An An, you must be like Qingshu. You can't let the beast coax it."
It was Qingshu who wrote to her that she hoped to take An An with her. The two sisters should have met for more than four years after they were separated, and otherwise they would not know each other even if they met.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Gu Xian got married.
Mrs. Quanbang looked at Gu Xian with good makeup and said with a smile: "The bride is so beautiful, the groom is blessed."
Chen Shaozhou is the second in command of Huoji Business Company, rich and powerful, and has a good appearance. Since his wife died suddenly, many matchmakers came to propose marriage. Unfortunately, he didn't like any of them. No one expected to marry Gu Xian in the end. Even though this person was the cousin of the prefect, it still broke the eyes of everyone. After all, Gu Xian was nearly thirty years old and had two daughters.
When Gu Xian heard this, his face looked shy.
Mrs. Quanfu secretly praised her. She was almost thirty years old, and she looked like a girl in her twenties.
People feel refreshed when they are happy, and Chen Shaozhou looks more than five years younger in big red clothes.
He used big red silk to pull Gu Xian out of the new house. The two of them went to the main hall to kneel down and kowtow to Old Lady Gu.
Old Mrs. Gu walked up to help Gu Xian up, and said in tears: "In the future, you must live a good life with Shaozhou, and you must not act as willful as before."
Because Chen Shaozhou promised to take Old Lady Gu and An An after marriage, Gu Xian was not worried at all: "I know, mom."
The voice was filled with joy. Old Mrs. Gu was both amused and angry when she heard it: "Shaozhou, Xiaoxian has been spoiled by me. Please tolerate her more later."
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will treat Xiaoxian well."
He had experienced his wife's betrayal and did not want to marry again, but he was touched by the childlike Gu Xian. However, this time he decided to reduce the number of times he went out to sea in the future and stayed at home to accompany Gu Xian.
After Gu Xian was taken away, the Gu family became deserted.
Mrs. Qi looked at the red eyes of Mrs. Gu, and said with a smile: "Didn't Shaozhou say that he would pick you up after waiting for the country's three dynasties? It's just a few days apart, don't be sad."
Old Mrs. Gu wiped her tears and said, "What's the best thing about having a daughter? Her heart was poached when she got married."
Fortunately this time, I knew that Chen Shaozhou was a reliable person. Like Gu Xian got married last time, she was so worried that she was not good at food and food.
Mrs. Qi smiled and said, "How much my daughter is caring! Every time I see Qingshu and Anan, I feel itchy, but my two sons are not good enough to have a granddaughter for me."
Qi Xiangdi stood up and said, "It's his son who is unfilial."
Mrs. Qi waved her hand and drove her out: "Go, go, I'm annoyed when I see you now."
Qi Xiangdi was also helpless. He also wanted a soft and sweet daughter. But who knew that he had given birth to two kids in succession, so he couldn't blame him!
Zong Wanyu smiled and said, "Mom, wait for Yitao to get married and let him give birth to a great-granddaughter for you."
Mrs. Qi curled her lips and said, "Waiting for him, I don't know how to wait until the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month!"
Zong Wanyu chuckled and said, "Yitao is 14th this year and will get married in a few years."
Mrs. Qi said, "Don't coax me, just when I don't know, you are going to wait for Yitao to pass the imperial examination before you get married. Everything goes well and you have to wait for six or seven years to get married. I don't know if I am here at that time!"
Qi Xiangdi didn't like to hear this: "Mom, you will definitely live a hundred years old. Not to mention great-granddaughter, you can see even great-granddaughter."
