After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

"Propose marriage?!" Gu Nanxi was shocked. How old is Su Erlang and he is already thinking about getting married!

Isn't this nonsense? !

Lumei was not as shocked as Gu Nanxi. She glanced at the contents of the letter, and the curve at the corner of her mouth could no longer be lowered.

"The most capable person in our house is Erlang! Look, you don't even need to worry about him, he has taken care of everything for the rest of his life."

Gu Nanxi: "But he is still so young!"

"Not young anymore. If there hadn't been so much going on in the family in recent years, Dalang and Erlang would have been married long ago."

Gu Nanxi was dazed for a moment. Has she been in the book for so long?

The young boy who was as sickly as Xi Shi and loved to put on makeup is now at the age of marriage.

After sighing for a few words, Gu Nanxi continued to read the contents of the letter: "Shuyao? When did these two get involved? How come I didn't notice any clues? Aren't they the two who love to argue?"

Lu Mei smiled like an auntie: "They say they are a pair of happy enemies! Aren't these two people like that? That's good too. They are a couple who respect each other like guests, they are a couple who love each other, and they are a couple who fight and quarrel. As long as they can grow old together, then that is a destined marriage!"

Gu Nanxi had mixed feelings. He thought these little guys were baby birds hiding under his wings, but in the blink of an eye, the little birds flapped their wings and went out to build nests. They had to take on the responsibilities of being men.

"Since they are in love with each other, we can't be impolite." Gu Nanxi thought for a while.

He was short of money now, and if he reduced the betrothal gift by a few points, Shuyao's family might not mind because they were understanding. But in the eyes of outsiders, it would seem that he looked down on the girl and was exposing her to gossip for no reason.

Gu Nanxi wrote two letters overnight, one to Hangzhou and the other to Kyoto as soon as possible.

At this time, in the city of Hangzhou, everyone was openly congratulating the happy event, but secretly many people were watching the joke.

"Shuyao is just a merchant family, and her father is just a minor official in Kyoto. How can such a family be worthy of the Yongchang Marquisate?"

"This woman is shameless. She chased me all the way from Kyoto to Hangzhou. Su Erlang was so carried away that he lost his mind. The wife of the governor of Yunzhou will definitely not agree!"

"Let's wait and see how she steps down!"

Amidst everyone's eager anticipation, the messenger from Yunzhou arrived at the shipyard in full view of everyone.

"It's a reply from my mother!" Su Yunting rushed out hurriedly, feeling unprecedented anticipation and nervousness.

Will my mother agree?

Shuyao also wanted to follow, but her legs were stiff and she stood there, motionless.

She is so nervous!

If the general disagrees...

Shuyao didn't know what to do.

The uncles who had been accompanying Shuyao rubbed their hands, and their eyes seemed to be glued, always fixed on the letter in Su Yunting's hand.

Su Yunting read the letter several times, grinned at Shu Yaole and said, "Mother agreed!"

Shuyao cried with joy. After making the gamble of traveling all the way from Kyoto to Hangzhou, she finally got the reward she wanted most!

Seeing Shuyao so happy, Su Yunting told her another good news: "My mother said that she would give me 10% of the share of the shipyard as a betrothal gift."

"How can this be done?!"

The four uncles and Shuyao's father said in unison.

Since the shipyard was first planned to be built, it has attracted attention from all parties. Overtly or covertly, there are countless people who want to get involved.

Money can move people's hearts, and the Xu family in Hangzhou is the most obvious example.

However, the shipyard had the support of the general and the current emperor, and Su Yunting was very capable, so they did not succeed.

The shares of the shipyard have always been firmly in the hands of Gu Nanxi, not even Su Dalang and Su Erlang!

This time, she actually took out 10% as a betrothal gift! How much do you think of Chen Shuyao? !

You know, although families in Kyoto who really want to benefit their daughters usually take the betrothal gifts as dowry and take them all to the bride's husband's house as the bride's private property, this is a share of the shipyard!

If by some chance the girl is tempted and does not return the betrothal gift, the Yongchang Marquisate will have no place to seek redress.

Shuyao's father and several uncles looked at each other. The general's love for Shuyao was so deep!

Su Yunting didn't take it seriously and explained to his father-in-law, "My mother is always generous to her own people. Since Shuyao and I have already decided, Shuyao is one of our own. My mother said that the money in the Marquis' Mansion is a little tight right now, and she didn't mean to neglect Shuyao. It's partly because of our Marquis's intention to ask for her hand in marriage."

The other party is the ruler of a state and is so humble. What else can Shuyao's father say?

Forget it, a girl should get married when she reaches the age of 18. The girl is willing and the boy is not bad, so let it be.

As the person involved, Shuyao's father was shocked, not to mention the people of Hangzhou who learned about this.

Many wealthy families were so envious that their eyes turned red: "I didn't expect Gu Nanxi to be so generous that she actually gave out 10% of the share as a betrothal gift!"

"If I had known this, I would have asked our girl to go find Su Erlang!"

With this percentage of men hanging around in front, there will always be women willing to confess their love in public!

On that day, I don’t know how many people beat their chests and stamped their feet in regret, and I don’t know how many girls bit their handkerchiefs into pieces!

What is even more enviable is that the matchmaker this time is actually Mr. Cui Sanlun!

As soon as Cui Sanlun received Gu Nanxi's letter, he asked his colleagues to help him ask for leave and set off overnight, for fear of delaying Su Erlang's important event in life.

When Su Yunting went to the dock to pick up Cui Sanlun, Cui Sanlun was suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, and had lost a lot of weight.

"For a brat like you, I've risked my life!"

Su Yunting was deeply moved. This old man was unreasonable most of the time, but he was really nice to Gu Nanxi and the three siblings of the Su family.

"Thank you, grandpa. After Shuyao and I get married, we'll have three or five kids, and they'll be in your care so you can enjoy the happiness of a family." Su Yunting was deeply moved.

When Cui Sanlun thought about three or five boys as sharp-tongued and naughty as Su Erlang, surrounding him and calling him "ancestor", he felt like he was going to die!

"That's not necessary. If you really want to honor me, remember to train your nephews and nieces well in the future, and I will be satisfied."

Adopting a adopted daughter, Gu Nanxi, had already caused him a lot of worry. He worked diligently in Kyoto and did not dare to miss any major court meetings, for fear that someone would set a trap for Gu Nanxi in the court!

It's even better now. Su Dalang wants to pursue a career in politics, Su Erlang wants to go to sea, and Su Sanniang wants to make money. None of these paths are easy!

If we wait until the third generation comes...

Cui Sanlun let out a long sigh. It seemed that as an old man, he would have to live for a long time.

Cui Sanlun's expression was full of disgust, but he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.

When he was matchmaking, he praised Su Yunting to the highest level.

It was not until he and Su Yunting were alone that Cui Sanlun poured a glass of wine for Su Yunting: "Although it is hard to sift through the sand, gold will emerge after all the sand is blown away. You are about to start a family, and things will be different from before. Your mother's path is not easy, you should be her motivation and help to move forward!"
