"Zhao'er is back? Master, have you left some food? Mother has left mung bean soup for you. It's hot enough for the trip, drink it quickly."
The old lady immediately turned around and got busy. After the mung beans were boiled into soup, they had been kept in the well water to cool down.
Gu Zhen couldn't enter the house, and stood in the yard dizzy from the sun, but look at the old woman's attitude after the uncle came back?Comparing the two, she really didn't have to expect anything from the two old guys. In their eyes and hearts, only Gu Zhao was their treasure, and everyone else was nothing.
She specially dressed up and came back today, just to impress the eyes of the villagers, so as to pave the way for her marriage. Sure enough, after entering the village, she got a lot of different looks. Gu Zhen felt very proud Yes, coupled with the comparison with Gu Zhen, I feel even more proud.
She didn't believe that the Song family would let a girl like her with a pretty face, a pretty face and earn money not want to marry a village girl who couldn't stand on the table. Apart from doing farm work and embroidery work like Gu Yao, she what else can i doCan I make friends with nobles for Song Ze in the future?She doesn't care about dealing with the family members of the big family.
But now that she was so tanned that she was about to put on makeup on her face, the anger in Gu Zhen's heart burst out.
Seeing Gu Zhao coming in, she didn't notice the strange face behind Gu Mu, and threw a knife at Gu Zhao.
Gu Mu was furious.
Gu Erniu was also upset, he was so capable and promising, why his parents still didn't want to see him, he didn't find the reason on himself, but blamed it all on others.
Seeing Gu Zhao now, thinking about the purpose of coming back, I couldn't shake my face, so I showed a flattering smile: "Little brother, you are back, the second brother has made my parents unhappy, little brother, please help me persuade my parents, second brother It's really too busy to take time off, so it's late to come back."
Gu Zhao would not talk about brotherhood with him, so he directly pointed to Gu Zhen who was beside him: "Second brother, look at your daughter for yourself, she treats me as an enemy, I would like to ask second brother , What have I, Gu Zhao, done to you to make her hate me so much?"
When the old man and Gu Erniu heard this, they subconsciously followed his fingers to look at Gu Zhen. Gu Zhen had no time to restrain himself, and both of them were startled.
The old lady heard it too, and rushed out immediately: "What? Who sees you as an enemy? Is it this stinky girl? Well, my old lady has made an enemy. Since she doesn't like our family, get out of here. Roll as far as you can, no matter how much money you earn, my wife won't want a rich man!"
Because the old man saw Gu Zhen's expression, his face was sullen and he didn't speak at the moment. If he didn't stop the old woman's words, it was just like what the old son said. How did the old son offend this niece and make her hate her uncle so much?This girl must not stay in the Gu family!
Gu Zhen was terrified at the moment, she never expected that Gu Zhao would do something like this, she was not afraid of being disliked by the Gu family, but her reputation was very important at this moment, otherwise how could Song's mother agree to her marriage with Song Ze?
It was all because of her carelessness. When she saw Gu Zhao, she couldn't suppress the hatred in her heart. Coupled with the old lady's different treatment, the anger went straight to Gu Zhao. She didn't want to be seen by everyone in the yard. .
Gu Zhen's mind was spinning quickly, and she came up with an idea in a blink of an eye, so in front of several people, she seemed to change her face, her face full of resentment suddenly turned into tears, and she didn't know what she had experienced in her previous life , Said that the teardrops were hanging on the eyelashes when he was sad, and then wiped it with the back of his hand, his eyes became redder: "Grandma, grandpa, my father and I just want to earn more money to come back to honor your two elders, it's not what you want like that."
"What are we thinking? Tell my old lady the truth." The old lady said angrily.
Gu Zhao grabbed Gu Mu's hand and gently comforted him, but he couldn't let Gu Mu really rush out and hit someone, that would be unreasonable and unreasonable, and once he grabbed Gu Mu, he became obediently by his side.
Gu Zhao suddenly said quietly, "Gu Zhen, your face is covered with makeup."
"What? My face!" Gu Zhen just looked like she was misunderstood and sad, but now she held her face and screamed, just in time to be discovered by the villagers who were watching the excitement behind Gu Zhao and the others. I couldn't help but burst into laughter on the spot.
The old lady understood that this girl had too many eyes, and her heart was broken. She didn't have the energy to quarrel with this granddaughter, and waved her away: "You guys go, take everything you brought back, and the old man and I Don’t dare to use the things you brought back, as long as we have the third child to be filial, we will come back if there is nothing to do in the future, so hurry up and leave.”
The old lady started to push people, and she just pushed the father and daughter out, Gu Zhen was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she couldn't do it anymore if she wanted to act, and people wouldn't believe her even if she acted.
It's all Gu Zhao's fault, this bitch is just trying to beat her, and she will fall into Gu Zhao's trick, damn it.
Seeing the villagers gathered around, Gu Zhen quickly lowered her head and continued to put on a look of being injured. In fact, she was worried that the makeup on her face was really messed up and people would see it. She cared about her face the most now. She also specially used the makeup that is popular in the capital.
In the yard, Gu Zhao hugged the old lady's shoulders to comfort her: "Mother, don't be angry, don't be as knowledgeable as them, and father is too. Think about our good life in the future, only others will regret it, and my son will buy two for mother." Serve me as a girl, and let my mother be a real old lady."
The old lady couldn't help laughing out loud, and thumped the old son: "Mother doesn't need a girl to wait on her, don't be so serious, that's all, hurry up and get into the house to avoid the sun, Mu'er also hurry up."
Gu Mu glared darkly at Gu Erniu and Gu Zhen who were outside, then turned around and grinned at his elder brother and the old lady.
Gu Zhao also said: "Father and mother don't need to worry about the second brother's family. The clothes they are wearing today are better than those of parents. This shows that they are living a good life."
Today, both Gu Erniu and Gu Zhen came back in their best clothes.
He was complaining secretly, and sure enough, the old man and the old lady became annoyed again when they heard it. They had a good life and couldn't think of them.This son is raised for nothing.
"Don't talk about them, you will get angry when you mention them. Before moving away, you always said that the baby in your womb was a son, and we still don't know whether Liu's birth is a boy or a girl." The old lady said unhappily.
Gu Zhao was surprised: "You don't know until now?"
"Yeah," the old lady was disappointed with Gu Laoer when she mentioned this matter, "But mother guessed that your second brother didn't get what he wanted this time, otherwise he would have called us out as soon as possible. With that appearance, I really thought that I would give birth to a great son, but I didn’t expect it to be another girl in the end. In fact, it doesn’t matter if a girl is like Yaoer, she is very good, and she will respect her parents as if she was raised well, but I think those two Mouth..."
The old lady couldn't go on, she just sighed, seeing how the second child was desperately trying to have a son, she knew that the daughter of this birth would not fall into their eyes, and she would definitely not take good care of her, she felt a little bit sorry for the newborn granddaughter, But she was far away and couldn't take care of her, and it was impossible for her to bring the child back.
Gu Zhao comforted the old lady: "Isn't the elder brother's family's Ren'er marriage settled? When the niece and daughter-in-law marry in, the parents may soon have a great-grandson in their arms."
Thinking that the Gu family would have a fourth-generation great-grandson, the old man and the old lady became excited again. Yes, they were about to become great-grandmothers, but the old son around him was worried again. The son hadn't married a wife yet.
"Zhao'er, what are your plans for your marriage? When you didn't come back, many people came to your door to talk about your marriage, but your father said, you have to wait until you come back to talk about it, so that I can't just agree to other people's family. No matter how good it is, it won't work." The old ladies of several families were very moved when they heard it, but because the old man reminded them, the old ladies didn't let go.
Gu Mu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly grabbed Gu Zhao's clothes, brother wants to marry a wife?What about him?Gu Mu felt like the sky was falling. If his brother wanted to marry a wife, would he still be his brother alone?
Gu Zhao couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, he looked at his father, and his father also looked at him because of the old lady's words, so he wanted a letter from him.
"Father, mother, how old am I?"
The old lady muttered: "Ren'er is only one year older than you, and we agreed to do things next year."
It's not too early to get married at the age of 17 in the countryside. Most people are like this. Gu Zhao is only one year younger than Gu Ren, but now the marriage has not yet been settled, so the old lady and the old man are not in a hurry.
Gu Zhao said speechlessly: "Then I'm only 15 years old. Besides, I want to focus on my studies. In the future, I'll give my parents a test to raise people. How can I have time to see their relatives? I think it's better for parents to embrace their great-grandchildren first."
"Nonsense." The old man also had something to say this time, and cursed with a smile, "Ren'er belongs to Ren'er, you belong to you, and you are still his uncle, and you don't make a good head. Well, I know that your current marriage is related to Ren'er. It's different, you can't make do with it, and we won't show you casually, but you have to know what kind of wife you want to marry in the future, so we can show you."
Gu Zhao could only touch his chin and said, "Well, I have to think carefully before I can tell you."
Gu Zhao thought to himself, anyway, this is going to be delayed in advance, as long as it can be delayed.
The author's gossip: it is easy to forget the text at ten o'clock, so it is ahead of time
That night, Gu Mu was not active when he was sleeping, but followed Gu Zhao like a ghost, with lowered eyebrows and drooping eyes, but didn't speak.
If he didn't speak, Gu Zhao was still a little unaccustomed to it. It can be seen how terrible a habit is. It took a long time to get used to someone talking non-stop in his ear, brother and brother yelling.
Gu Zhao stretched out his hand and pulled him in front of his eyes, not wanting to see him like this, he stretched out his hand and raised the corners of his eyes and mouth: "What's the matter? Who made Mu Mu unhappy?"
Gu Mu squinted at Gu Zhao, then lowered his eyes.
Well, I offended this ancestor: "Tell me, why did I upset you?"
Only then did Gu Mu open his mouth: "You want to marry a wife."
"What's wrong with me marrying a daughter-in-law?" Gu Zhao said with a smile, this kid is not happy because of his marrying a wife. It seems that he is jealous. From the usual time, he can see that this kid has a domineering personality. This is against him. The future daughter-in-law has an opinion.
Gu Mu raised his eyes and glared at Gu Zhao: "If you marry a wife, will you still be my brother?"
"Why is it that I'm not your brother when I marry a wife?" Gu Zhao teased him. Since he had the memory of the end of the world, marrying a wife was not in Gu Zhao's plan at all. Has little effect.
Gu Mu glared at him again: "It's different, it's different anyway."
Finding that it didn't make sense to Gu Zhao, Gu Mu was so angry that he couldn't get to sleep, and turned his back to Gu Zhao, which showed that he was angry, and if his brother didn't come to coax him, he would never follow him. Brother reconciliation.
Gu Mu couldn't explain clearly. Anyway, he knew that whether Gu Zhao married a wife or not had a very different meaning to him. Anyway, he just couldn't see that his brother would be intimate with another person one day, so he couldn't be the closest person to his brother. Well, anyway, thinking about his brother getting married, he became very angry, so angry... he wanted to kill any woman who dared to get close to his brother.
This child is still difficult to coax, Gu Zhao deliberately talked to him, but there was no response, and when Gu Zhao packed up and went to bed, the child was still stubbornly refusing to turn around, Gu Zhao finally couldn't help laughing, the bed was covered by him It trembled.
He reached out and patted the awkward child wrapped in a thin quilt: "Okay, okay, what I said just now was for my parents, I never thought about marrying a daughter-in-law, just coaxing you just gave me a headache. But I don’t have the energy to coax another person.”
Gu Mu suddenly lifted the thin quilt and turned around, looking at Gu Zhao with bright eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably: "Are you serious?"
At this moment, because Gu Mu was covered with a thin quilt, his face was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and it was also stained pink. He was originally born well, but now under the dim oil lamp, he has a layer of hazy effect, called Seeing it made his heart beat faster, and Gu Zhao sighed in his heart. With Gu Mu's beauty, where would he go to find such a beautiful daughter-in-law.
He stretched out his hand and patted his head: "Of course it's true. You're so hot, your face is covered with sweat. Hurry up and wipe off the sweat, and I'll fan you again."
Gu Mu's brows and eyes widened into a smile, so he came over affectionately again, not too hot at all.
In fact, he was a little timid just now, what if my brother thinks he is too close?What if my brother turns around and walks away and ignores him?Just thinking about it made him feel like he could cry. There are many close people around his brother, but now he only has his brother alone.
Like a keen little beast, he tested his brother's bottom line little by little, just to know where the bottom line of his brother's tolerance was, and whether he could go further.
Now it proves that he was a false alarm. Although my brother has other close people, he is still very important in his heart.
The face-changing before and after made Gu Zhao laugh, but he could only hold back the laughter in his stomach, so as not to get annoyed by the thin-skinned kid.
Because the child is always with him in his heart, Gu Zhao is always a little more patient with him than others. Of course, this is only for Mu Mu who is in a state of amnesia. When Mu Mu remembers his identity and everything one day, maybe this is the case. The days will be gone forever.
Like Song Ze, Gu Zhao also distributed the soap he brought back to his family members. One piece was given to the elder brother’s family, and Gu Yao gave another piece alone. The sensible niece would get more preferential treatment at Gu Zhao’s place. She came here to report her experience to my uncle. She thought it was a good thing only girls in the city could use, so she was very happy to use it.
They counted late. Brother Gu and sister-in-law Gu have already ground the soy milk and are pressing the tofu. The two are the main force. The old man and the old lady are doing some light work. He didn't say anything, and let the second elder take it. Although he is not short of this little money now, he would not say that he will hand over all the tofu workshops to the elder brother's family.
He is still very clear about Sheng Mi's kindness and Mi's hatred.
Hearing Gu Yao's words, the old lady also stretched out her hand for them to see: "Look at my hands, are they much cleaner than usual? They are all washed with the soap brought back by Zhao'er. That thing is really good, but it must be cleaned. A lot of money."
Thinking about the cost of soybean oil when making soap, Gu Zhao laughed happily: "I didn't buy it from outside, it was made by my mother, your son, and me. What do you think, mother? I plan to make this with Song Ze and Qi Er Shao Business, when the time comes, mother and father will help me look into it."
The old lady was stunned for a while, and then she patted her thigh and cried out in surprise. It was actually her old son who made it and brought it back to honor them. She quickly called the old man who was making tofu: "Old man, come quickly, Zhao'er has something to discuss with us." .”
Gu Daniu heard his mother's cry, and said to his father: "Father, go over and see what's going on with my little brother. I can just be with the child's mother here."
Both Gu Daniu and Xiao Zhao have learned how to make tofu now, and the tofu they make is no worse than the old man's, so now the main force of making tofu is Gu Daniu and his wife, plus there are cattle at their beck and call, so making tofu now is easier than before Quite a lot, that is, the amount of tofu needed now has increased a lot, and no matter how much can be made, it will not be enough to sell.
But Gu Daniu and his wife are happy no matter how tired they are. As they make more and more tofu, they will get one tael of silver every day, 30 taels of silver in a month, and even more in a year. Just thinking about it makes me tremble with excitement.
Mr. Gu wiped his hands and walked out: "Zhaoer, what do you want to tell dad?"
The old lady said excitedly: "Have you used the soap that Zhaoer brought back? Zhaoer said that he made it himself, and he still wants to do this business. Ask the two of us to help look at it."
The old man was also taken aback. Like Gu Yao, he also thought that it was a precious thing that Gu Zhao brought back from the provincial capital. He didn't want his son to make it himself. The old man was so excited that his beard stood up. He also used it, of course. Knowing that this thing is good, I was talking to my old lady before going to bed last night, saying that the things in the city are really useful, look at how clean my hands are.
The old man suddenly became proud. It turned out that they used things that people in the city didn't use first. Look at the old couple who wanted to follow the old son when they separated. Many people in the village either laughed at them or sympathized with them. Let's change it to envy, who doesn't say that the old couple have good eyesight.
Thinking this way in my heart, I glared at the old woman: "What are you talking about? Let's just keep the tofu shop safe for Zhao'er. We don't know about the business in the city. Zhao'er, do you have any arrangements for yourself?" ? Your mother and I won’t make trouble for you.”
Gu Yao is still covering her mouth, her eyes are full of admiration and surprise, the uncle is really amazing.
Gu Zhao felt that he needed to talk to his parents about this matter, so he said, "Mom and Dad, let's go into the room and sit down and talk slowly."
"well."
Gu Yao and Gu Mu also went in, because there was Gu Zhen as a comparison, Gu Mu's impression of Gu Yao was not bad, but for Gu Yi, who wanted to go to Gu Zhao's side, it was the eyes, not the nose, not the nose .
The second elder left soy milk for Gu Zhao, which was still warm at the moment. While drinking, Gu Zhao said that they were going to open workshops and shops: "From now on, Song Ze and I will stay in Fucheng, where we will study at the Fucheng. It's rare to go home all year round, so I told Song Ze to persuade my aunt to go to Fucheng together, and I also wanted to take my parents with me, so I let my elder brother and sister-in-law take care of the tofu shop at home, and rent the land to the villagers."
"Father, mother, think about it. When we get to Fucheng, Song Ze and I have to concentrate on our studies. Isn't there no way to look at the workshops and shops? After all, it's a partnership business. Qi Ershao is a good person now, but in case he Has it changed? So no one can keep an eye on it for me?" Gu Zhao apologized to the second brother Qi in his heart. This is an expedient measure, so he sacrificed the second brother Qi's reputation first and persuaded his parents to go to Fucheng.
In fact, the old man and the old lady were very excited to go to Fucheng with the old son to enjoy the blessings, otherwise the old lady wouldn't be so excited to call the old man over.
But when they were excited, they were more worried, worried that they would cause trouble to the old son and slow them down. Besides, the family property of Shuiyun Village should be taken care of. However, Shuiyun Village was always his retreat.
Finally, the elders who have been to the county at most are inevitably shy about the prefecture, but they are used to it in Shuiyun Village, and now they are highly respected here.
But the reason Gu Zhao used made them hesitate, yes, the person Zhaoer trusts the most is their elders, if they don’t help Zhaoer look at it, what if someone fools him outside?
Gu Zhao saw it, and thought that there was something going on this time, so he added more firewood: "Father, mother, do you know how much money I invested in the workshop and shop?"
"How many?"
"In addition to Fangzi, I also invested 200 taels of silver."
"Hey, that won't work, old man, we have to go with Zhao'er. If you don't want to, then I'll go alone. I can't pay for so much money, bah bah! How can I pay, I can't!" The old lady felt distressed Dao, although the business of this tofu shop is very good now, and it can earn hundreds of taels of silver all year round, but it has not yet been obtained, and the silver in hand is less than a hundred taels.
The old lady is going to leave the old man and go alone, Gu Yao just lay on the old lady and laughed so hard.
The old man blew his beard and stared at him. What are you talking about? How can the old woman be reluctant to part with him?He came up with the idea of leaving him alone at home, what a bad idea!
"Let's go, let's go, let's stay together!" The old man showed his power and could not be refuted. The old lady responded by rolling her eyes. The old son is promising, and her waist is also straight.
What can Gu Zhao do about it?He could only maintain a dumbfounding expression.
In fact, he already knew the result at this time, and his father's expression had already wavered, and his determination to stay was not so firm. The old couple had spent most of their lives, how could the husband and wife separate, the old lady just talked .
Now Gu Yao knew that her uncle and grandma would not be staying at home for a long time. In fact, she was quite reluctant, but she could only go back and tell her parents to let them be mentally prepared.
Gu Daniu and Xiao Zhao's feelings were extremely complicated. They were happy that Gu Zhao was so capable, and the two elders were also happy to go with Gu Daniu to enjoy the blessings. Stop it, the two elders are obviously happy to go with them.
After Gu Yi came back from school, Gu Daniu patted him on the head and said, "You have to study hard, and you will be like your uncle in the future."
At first, he felt that his youngest son could be admitted to a scholar, and he felt that his life was complete. Unexpectedly, he said this too early. With Gu Zhao as a reference in front, Gu Daniu's requirements for his youngest son have also become higher. If he could bring his parents to the city to enjoy the blessings, his son would at least be able to bring the two of them to the county to enjoy the blessings, not to mention Fucheng.
Gu Yi said that he couldn't understand his father's complex, deep and expectant expression. He was too young to understand what adults were thinking: "Father, I wanted to be like my uncle."
So he even went to the school of Tan Fuzi in the town, and he took his uncle as the standard in everything.
Gu Daniu still looked at his younger son with complicated eyes, and suddenly felt that his demands on his younger son might be a bit high.
***
Because Song Ze and Gu Zhao are from the same village, and the relationship between the two families is very good, and Song's mother is too busy alone in the Song family, so Song's mother discussed with the old lady and decided to put the banquets of the two families together. manage.
It is such a big deal for Song Ze to be admitted as a scholar, and Song Ze is still a junior, so it is impossible not to celebrate. Even the village is waiting for the two of them to hold a banquet to eat. Before, they used the excuse that the two of them had not returned home, so they had to wait. Let's talk when they come back.
There were many people who sent gifts before, and these people had to return the invitation. Of course, not all the gifts were accepted by both families. The old man specially asked Mrs. Tan for advice, and discussed with the village chiefs. Therefore, all gifts that are too heavy are rejected, because it is not enough to refuse all of them. This is like a custom and an unwritten rule. a name.
When Gu Zhao and Song Ze came back, the old man and Song's mother handed over the list of gifts to them, and if they felt that there was something inappropriate, they could return it.
It’s okay for Gu Zhao to look at it. Among these gifts, 20 taels of silver was given the most. It’s not too heavy. Also put them in their hands.
After the two families set a time for the banquet, they sent out invitations to various places, including Qi's family. There is no doubt that Second Young Master Qi is waiting for this post. No matter how busy he is, he still needs to find time for it. of.
There is also a need to invite the young talents from around the town. This is a circle of scholars, and I heard from Mr. Tan that these scholars also spoke out for him when he reviewed the affairs of Zhao and Gao's family.
Gu Zhao and Song Ze negotiated and finalized the list, some of whom were consulted by Mr. Tan, and they were actually not very familiar with some local scholars.
Just the day before the banquet, all the invitations were sent out, and Qi Ershao also sent a message saying that he would lend them the chef of Qi's Restaurant for a day, and the two families finally drew up the menu, and there was a The people in the village invited to help, the weather is so hot, the banquet can only be concentrated in one day, all the ingredients will be prepared early in the morning, and it is only after processing that they realize how complicated the matter is, the two families look at each other, fortunately they are put together Yes, otherwise it will take two troubles to come separately.
"From the Song family, another matchmaker has come to your house." Because Song's mother and Song Ze are both on the Gu family's side, a neighbor delivered a message for the matchmaker who came to the door, with teasing eyes. When the news came back, the matchmaker never stopped.
Mother Song had a headache, and she replied more than one or two. She looked at Mrs. Gu: "What did your Gu Zhao say?"
The old lady regretted: "The child said that he was not in a hurry, that he was still young, so he didn't think about it now."
Song's mother also sighed: "I didn't expect your family Gu Zhao to think the same way. Did your two children discuss it? My family's Song Ze also told me the same way, but those matchmakers couldn't refuse too hard. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if you want to find a matchmaker in the future. Forget it, I'll go back and have a look."
Gu Zhao and Song Ze looked up at each other, then lowered their heads together and acted like they were deaf.
Song Ze was indeed greatly influenced by Gu Zhao in this matter. Originally, he thought it would be good for his mother to decide this matter. In addition, it would be good for him to have someone to accompany his mother when he was studying abroad. Such a reason might sound a bit selfish, but this Everyone is like this in recent years, Song Ze just followed the trend, and besides, he was raised by a widowed mother, so sometimes he would be more considerate of his mother.
But now there is no need to leave my mother alone in the village. This time, the amount of money in the case is much more relaxed. I feel that my marriage can be put on hold. He doesn't have any personal relationship with his children now, so there is no need to rush to see each other. .
On the way back from Gu's house, Song's mother was thinking about how to politely reject the matchmaker. As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw the matchmaker who had been here before congratulating her with red lips: "Ms. Song, congratulations, congratulations! Congratulations, this time you are guaranteed to be satisfied."
Song's mother was heartbroken when she heard it, and she smiled politely as she opened the door to invite the matchmaker in, "Please run again."
"Where is it, it doesn't matter if I go ten or eight times, as long as I can make a satisfactory marriage for Song Xiaosanyuan." The matchmaker can talk about death, and Song's mother is not her opponent at all. He could pour her a cup of tea with a smile, but he was still ready to refuse.
"My lady of the Song family, listen to me first. You must be satisfied with the girl this time. Speaking of which, she is an acquaintance of yours. Song Xiaoxiu and that girl have also met before."
Song's mother thumped in her heart when she heard it. Could it be that her son was set up by someone? She pretended not to understand and asked, "What are you talking about..."
"Haha, isn't it the daughter of the Gu family from the same village as you?"
The Gu family, Gu Yao?But after the two families made it clear last time, no one wanted to match up the two children again. Mother Song's eyes were confused. If the Gu family had this intention, it was impossible not to let her know first.
The matchmaker continued to laugh and said: "Not to mention that girl is as beautiful as a flower, she even opened a shop in the county, and she can earn money by herself. Oh, hey, the peach pollen that the girl made herself is really useful. Look at my face, that peach pollen is used, and that girl is smart, and has contacts with many family members of big families in the county, you don't have to worry about marrying such a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Song."
The matchmaker really felt that this was a good marriage, mother Song couldn't possibly refuse, not only was the girl well-born and capable, but she was also the niece of Gu Xiaoxiucai, based on the relationship between the two families, it was impossible for this to fail, which was equivalent to It was for her to bring money, so the matchmaker immediately came to Shuiyun Village.
Mother Song's face darkened, she never expected that she was talking about that girl Gu Zhen, and that girl hadn't given up yet?No matter how rich and capable she is, how can she be compared to the wealthy households in the county?It's not that there are rich families in the county who want to get married. After all, Song Ze is young and a junior. It is definitely worthwhile in Song Ze, which is an early investment.
But Song's mother didn't even agree to such a good thing for her son, so how could she think of Gu Zhen who still has problems with her character.
It's also because the matchmaker didn't come to Shuiyun Village first to inquire about the Gu family. As long as she inquired a little bit, she would actually know that the second elder of the Gu family kicked out Gu Lao Er not long ago. Akira's relationship is not that close.
The matchmaker is very good at reading people's faces. When she found that Song's mother's expression was not right, her voice was no longer so high-pitched, and she hesitated: "Song's wife, you..."
Song's mother sighed: "I can't blame you for this matter. Don't say that my son doesn't want to talk about marriage now. Even if he wanted to see each other, he wouldn't look for that girl. Maybe that girl had an offense with our child."
She didn't want to tarnish Gu Zhen's reputation, so as not to bring other girls in the Gu family, such as Gu Yao, and Gu Zhen's younger sister, so she could only tactfully say that Song Ze was not suitable for marrying Gu Zhen. Didn't they hurt them if they were pulled together?
The matchmaker's eyes widened. She really thought that she would be able to collect the cash in just one trip, but she didn't expect to be dissatisfied?I heard that the two families are going to hold a banquet together, which means that the relationship between the two families is very good. Then, the matchmaker's eyes rolled around and her mind moved quickly. The problem is the second room of the Gu family?
The matchmaker talks nonsense when she sees people, and she doesn't feel annoyed if the marriage is not settled. After all, this is Song Xiaosanyuan's biological mother, so she enthusiastically took Song's mother's hand, and patted her mouth with the other hand : "Look at what I did. I didn't take a few more steps and asked a few more words. I almost killed Song Xiaosanyuan and that girl. I really deserve a fight. By the way, Song's wife, Song Xiaosanyuan is also back now." Now, did you say what kind of wife you want to marry?"
Mother Song breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face, and said angrily, "He, he doesn't have such a mind now, he wants to concentrate on studying, just like the Gu family, Gu Zhao, me and the old aunt of the Gu family are both worried, you Tell me what to do about it."
The matchmaker knew now that not only Song Xiaosanyuan, but also Gu Xiaoxiucai's matchmaking money would never be earned, and she felt very sorry, otherwise her reputation in this area would increase a lot if the marriage was settled by her.
The matchmaker left again in the bullock cart. Mother Song sat there thinking for a while, and finally made up her mind to go with her son. She was afraid of that girl Gu Zhen. Couldn't she hide a little bit?
But when she returned to the Gu family, Song's mother didn't even mention it. Could it be that she still doesn't know the relationship between Gu Erniu and the Gu family?I used to think that Gu Erniu was honest, but now it seems that he is only superficially honest and shallow-sighted. Even if Gu Zhen is really good, she can't let her son have such a dragging Yue family.
Mrs. Gu also asked a question, and Mother Song made a perfunctory sentence and changed the topic. Mrs. Gu also took it to heart, thinking that she was really telling what Mother Song said, and she had experienced the same thing several times.
They have to worry if no one proposes a marriage, and now they still have to worry about someone proposing a marriage.
After returning home, Song's mother told her son the truth. Song Ze was stunned on the spot. Gu Zhao really hit the mark. Gu Zhen really didn't give up. Compared to him, Gu Zhao knew Gu Zhen as a niece better.
"Mother made it clear to you that I don't want you to be deceived. Mother has made it clear. Mother will go to Fucheng with you."
Song Ze became joyful instead: "My son can feel at ease when his mother is here, and I heard from Gu Zhao that his parents may also go."
Mother Song didn't regret her decision anymore, even if she was unfamiliar with the place in Fucheng, at least there was the old aunt of the Gu family who could walk around.
The next day, Shuiyun Village was very lively. Almost all the women helped with the kitchen work, and the men also took the initiative to do physical work. Recently, people in the village have a lot of face when they go out, and they have confidence in dealing with people and doing things.
For example, there is an errand in the town where two people can do it, but after the steward asked which village the two belonged to, he immediately decided to hire people from Shuiyun Village. For the sake of talent, people are so snobbish.
On this day, there was a lot of ox carts and carriages at the entrance of the village. Qi Yunfei set off with the chef of the restaurant before dawn. The chef of the restaurant had no complaints. Mr. Gu Xiaoxiucai and the others knew each other very well, not to mention tofu recipes and other soy products How to make it. I heard that the dish of Buddha jumping over the wall, which is very popular in Fucheng, is also made by Mr. Gu. They must make good use of their culinary skills today, so as not to fall into the reputation of Gu Zhao and Song Xiaoxiu.
Gu Zhao personally brought Qi Yunfei in front of his parents. Although the second elder was a bit cramped at first, he soon relaxed. In fact, they had a very good impression of Qi Yunfei early in the morning. Several times, the second young master sent someone to inform the Gu family Yes, next to Second Young Master Qi
