Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Chapter 196: The Wedding (2) [Thanks to the sponsor "Ye Yunxiu" for his continuous monthly

According to wedding customs, Gu Tingye has to sit with his father, brother and several uncles today.

He actually didn't even want to look at them.

He still remembered that year, when he returned home from studying hard at the White Deer Cave Academy, what greeted him was not the warmth of a long-lost reunion, but overwhelming slander. He knelt down to be beaten, but these people sat in front of him and ate as if nothing had happened...

Hey, you should eat with people who make you feel comfortable, so that you can eat well!

Under his arrangement, Lao Geng, Lao Duan and other brothers took him out to toast one after another. In fact, he did not spend much time sitting at the main table that night.

Every time he returned to his seat, he could see his two uncles and his eldest brother sitting together, eating and drinking with gloomy faces. If Gu Yankai was there, the expressions of those people would be slightly better, and they would at least say a few words. If Gu Yankai happened to go out to toast, then these people would immediately change into the expressions of prisoners, as if sitting here to eat was an injustice that they had no choice but to do.

At this time, Gu Yankai went out to toast again, and Gu Tingye returned to the main table with the support of Shi Tou.

The fourth uncle finally spoke up: "Brother Ye, you are already so prosperous now, shouldn't you also be filial to your family?"

Gu Tingye pretended to be drunk and mumbled, "Laughing? Of course I'm laughing. I'm getting married today, so of course I'm laughing happily!"

Uncle Wufang: "There's no need for you to say that to him. He never takes us seriously. He drinks like this with others and doesn't even offer us a glass of wine."

Gu Tingye burped loudly at the fifth uncle, who took a few steps back and shouted, "How shameful!"

Several people around turned to look.

Gu Tingye laughed heartily, raised his glass and said to his fifth uncle: "Nephew...nephew toasts to uncle, to uncle for his cultivation since childhood, cultivate... cultivate!"

He said and drank it all in one gulp.

The fifth roommate could only take a sip under the gazes of others.

When everyone else looked away, the fourth roommate said, "I think he's just pretending to be drunk! He doesn't want to help the family at all!"

The fifth roommate shook his head and said, "Oh, how selfish! How could such a selfish person appear in our family..."

"Fifth Uncle, today is Erlang's wedding. Can't you talk about your personal matters at another time?" Gu Tingyu, who had been sitting next to him, spoke up.

"Da Lang, you have a backer now. I haven't seen you protect Gu Tingye like this before." The fourth room said sarcastically.

Gu Tingyu coughed suddenly: "I... I was deceived by a villain before..."

Everyone suddenly thought of the dead Xiao Qin.

Fifth room: "Didn't you do that? Now you have changed your appearance and can be a good brother. God is really kind to you."

Gu Tingyu’s cough was so loud that it shook the mountains.

A few more people looked over, but Gu Tingyu said nothing.

The fourth room's family: "Da Lang, if you really want to be a good person, then help us persuade Er Lang to find a job for your cousins ​​in the court. Now your family has risen to prominence, and you kicked our two rooms out. You are the only one enjoying the title and food. Isn't this a bit too greedy? It was your father who lost the title of the Gu family and offended the late emperor. We had to protect ourselves and naturally had to separate. But now the title and the imperial seal are back, and Ye Ge'er has become a new noble. Even if you don't let us return to the Marquis' Mansion, you should think about you cousins ​​and take them to live a good life, right?"

The fifth room: "That's right! Dalang, you know how hard it was for us after the family split up! We were exploited by Prince Yong, and your two aunts almost lost their lives. You know all these things! Now that Erlang has become successful, he should think about these relatives at home and make up for the hardships we have endured over the years, right?"

Gu Tingyu finally stopped coughing. He asked with a cold look in his eyes, "It was you who were clamoring to divide the family, and you even wanted to divide the dowry left by my Bai mother. How many unpleasant words were said at that time? Have you two uncles forgotten them now?"

The fourth room's son: "How do you talk to your elders like that? Are you taking advantage of your brother becoming a general and showing off?"

The fifth room's son: "You have no respect for your elders! How could my elder brother raise a son like you? You can't pass the exams or earn military honors, and now you dare to talk back to your elders. You are a shame to the Gu family!"

As he was cursing, Gu Yankai came back.

The people from room four and room five sat back in their seats, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Tingyu said to Gu Yankai with a sullen face: "Dad, I'm tired. I want to go back to my room and lie down."

Gu Yankai nodded: "Go ahead."

Gu Tingyu saluted to his father and two uncles with a cold face, and then said to Gu Tingye apologetically: "Second brother, I am not in good health, so I will go back first."

Gu Tingye waved his hands drunkenly: "Brother...Brother, take a rest, have a good rest!"

When Gu Yankai approached, he heard the people from the fourth and fifth rooms making sarcastic remarks. When he heard them talking about Gu Tingyu, he really couldn't stand it anymore, so he went back to his seat and sat down without even having time to toast the two tables in front of him.

The fourth and fifth room have pestered him about this several times.

The sons they gave birth to were either lazy and unable to study, or their bodies were exhausted early and they could not learn martial arts. They were all scoundrels who just wanted to eat and wait for death. However, they had seen the rich and luxurious world and wanted the best of everything, and their expenses were huge.

Why were the two families so anxious to divide Bai's dowry when the family was divided? Didn't they know that the money had nothing to do with them? In fact, they knew it very well, but if they didn't find a way to get the money, their two families' stores would soon be unable to survive.

Later, Qi Heng and Liang Han took action, and Gu Tingye had transferred the family property to an unknown place. Seeing that they would not get much money after dividing the family, the two families began to target the new emperor.

At that time, Prince Yong was extremely popular and everyone in the city of Bianjing believed that Prince Yong would be the next emperor, and the fourth and fifth wives were naturally no exception.

They tightened their belts and found all sorts of ways to give gifts to Prince Yong, trying their best to get him pearls, agates, rare and exotic animals. But in the end, they found that most of the gifts were returned, except for a few beauties who were accepted.

The two houses sent beauties several more times, and they were kept each time. Moreover, it was not long before the fourth aunt and the fifth aunt were invited to have tea at the table of Princess Yong.

So they began to search everywhere for beauties for Prince Yong, including beautiful concubines and pretty boys, and Prince Yong accepted them all.

The two families thought that they would be prosperous from now on, so they stopped causing trouble for Gu Yankai and devoted themselves to serving Prince Yong, even going so far as to borrow money for this purpose.

Unfortunately, once Prince Yong fell, all their plans went down the drain, but the debts they owed did not disappear with him.

Fortunately, the creditors were afraid of Gu Tingye's reputation and did not dare to bring people to cause trouble for his uncles. However, the fourth and fifth branches were very worried - not to mention that they had not yet repaid their debts, if the new emperor brought up the old accounts of their flattery of Prince Yong in the future, who knows how they would be killed.

The best way would naturally be to curry favor with Gu Tingye and ask him to arrange all his cousins ​​into the court and into his own camp. Then, with the help of Gu Tingye's power, many of the disasters they had done in the past might be avoided.

Gu Yankai naturally knew what his two younger brothers were planning. Although he hated his two younger brothers for being so cruel and heartless, now that life was better, he couldn't bear to see his two younger brothers in such an embarrassing situation. After all, they were the ones he had grown up with!

Gu Yankai tried to talk to Gu Tingye several times, but was blocked by Gu Tingye with various reasons. Once, the father and son almost had a quarrel.

Gu Tingye was so angry that he moved directly into the military camp. Not long after, he was sent by the emperor to the northwest to fight the Li family.

Seeing that Gu Yankai was not capable of handling the matter, the two uncles decided to take over themselves, hoping to take advantage of this rare opportunity to meet Gu Tingye to secure the future of their sons.

Unfortunately, Gu Erlang was drunk, very drunk, and what he said was incoherent and had nothing to do with what they wanted to hear.

Seeing that Gu Yankai was still conscious, they pulled Gu Yankai and cried, "Big brother! Seeing how you are doing now, we brothers are really happy for you..."

Suddenly, Gu Tingye stood up and vomited on them.
