Gu Ge supported the hand of the old housekeeper, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw two grandsons trotting towards him anxiously.

Gu Yanyuan stepped forward, took the position of the old butler, and held his grandfather's arm.

Seeing his grandfather's slow pace, Gu San became impatient, and hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, how is it? What did your majesty say?"

The old man looked at his grandson who was on fire, and severely reprimanded him: "Okay, this is still at the gate, go back to the study and talk." The third grandson's temper is also too impatient, and he still needs to practice more.

Gu San kept silent, and the men went to the big study together.

Mrs. Zheng walked back and forth in the study, stretching her neck to look out the window from time to time, raised her head and raised her feet. When she saw a few figures, she hurried forward to salute, "Elder-in-law."

The tone is very earnest.

The old man waved his hand, but stopped talking.

Zheng Shi was shocked.She has been married into the Gu family for decades, and her in-laws are extremely kind to her. In addition, there was no girl in the house at the beginning, so her in-laws treated her and her second siblings as daughters.Mrs. Zheng can be considered to know Mr. Gu Ge, with such an expression, it must not be good news.

Gu Qingbai pulled himself together, as a father, he naturally had to think about his daughter, "Master, what does the Holy Majesty say?"

Elder Gu Ge sat on the grand teacher's chair, heaved a long sigh and said: "The holy majesty said that the two sons and daughters are a match made in heaven, and it has already made a decree. I think someone will come to announce the decree in a short time."

Zheng's eyes darkened, and he almost fell to the ground.Fortunately, Gu Qingbai was watching closely all the time, hugging his wife who was about to faint.

Gu Qingbai supported his wife on a chair beside him, turned his head and asked Gu Gelao: "Why did you suddenly make an order?"

The old man looked at the grief-stricken daughter-in-law, then at the eldest son who had no previous demeanor, and said in a deep voice: "After all, Jia Daishan was the emperor's companion at the time, and he was in charge of the defense of the capital all these years. The old lady of Shang Rongguo is seriously ill, and the Holy One agrees because of his soft heart."

Gu Sanyi was filled with indignation and shouted, "It's pity that the old lady of the Jia family is seriously ill, so why doesn't the Holy One take pity on our Gu family, who will be robbed by his family."

"Okay, third brother, how did you talk?" Gu Yanyuan was also unhappy, but the youngest spoke too thoughtlessly, if he blamed the Holy Majesty so openly, if people found out, it would cause a catastrophe.

Gu San curled his lips, knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, and fell silent.

Gu Qingbai was also upset, and he was dissatisfied that the emperor favored the Jia family, but the deal was done, now what he had to do was not to vent his anger.

He calmed down and thought for a while, then asked: "May I ask the prince to talk about it?" As soon as he said it, Gu Qingbai knew that it was a waste of words, that Jia She was also the prince's companion, and the Jia family was the prince's confidantes In his Gu family, except for the old man who is a grand teacher, no one else has ever attached to the prince. In the prince's heart, they are probably just disorderly officials and thieves with ulterior motives.

"Oh!" You don't need to look at the old man's face, he is very self-aware.

Everyone was frowning, and the atmosphere in the room was also dull and depressing.

After all, the old man is well-versed and experienced, not to mention that there is an ignorant granddaughter at home, he cheered up and said: "Okay, now it's like this, it's useless to talk, the situation of the two families getting married is set, although that Jia She of Rongguo Mansion has a bad reputation, but he is not a luxurious, extravagant, vicious person. Jia's mansion is also a rich family, and the old lady in that mansion is also a noble family who can distinguish right from wrong. Don't think of Jia's family as a dragon's den. How will Sister Ting deal with herself?"

After listening to the old man's words, several people agreed in their hearts. After all, this is the worst outcome, and they can only think about the good, otherwise what hope is there?

Mrs. Zheng also cheered up. She is strong as a mother, and now she has to make good plans for her daughter.Not only do they need to prepare a dowry for their daughter, but they also need to send someone to inquire about Jia She's character and the situation in Jia's mansion.This daughter's family married, not just marrying a husband, but marrying a family.

She hadn't dealt with that family much in the past, and she didn't know what the old lady of the Jia family was like with the current Mrs. Jia, so she could only sharpen her guns in front of the battle.

Seeing his daughter-in-law cheering up again, Mrs. Gu was somewhat satisfied. The eldest daughter-in-law is so sensible, it was better for the old wife to choose her back then!

He looked at the eldest son who had accepted the facts and said: "The imperial decree is probably coming soon, you and your wife are ready to prepare."

Gu Qingbai got up and agreed with Zheng Shi.

Gu San wanted to say something again, but was stopped by Gu Yanyuan.

After a while, Mrs. Zheng wondered: "Elder-in-law, do you also have to be present when receiving the imperial edict?"

Elder Gu Ge bowed his head and thought for a while, "No need, I'll just say that Sister Ting is not feeling well, just take a rest."

Zheng Shi nodded, and she didn't want to let her daughter know the news soon, if it was later, it would be later.

In the evening, Wei Zhong arrived at the Gu mansion with the imperial decree, followed by several guards.He still came to Gu's family to announce the decree first, and he will go to Jia's mansion later.

Gu Gelao took the adult men in his family and knelt down to receive the imperial edict.

After Wei Zhong declared his will, he said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. Lao Ge and Mr. Gu for having a good son-in-law."

Gu Qingbai pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and said bitterly: "Eunuch Wei, stop joking."

Wei Zhong also knew that the Gu family was dissatisfied with this marriage, so he looked around, approached Gu Qingbai and said, "Your Majesty Gu knows, the Holy Majesty has said that when Young Master Jia and your Miss Gu family get married, the Majesty Then make Mr. Jia the crown prince, and then your eldest daughter will be the crown prince's wife."

Gu Qingbai raised his brows, this is good news that nothing is better than nothing.But Jia Amnesty is Jia Daishan's eldest son, if Sister Ting can't be the so-called wife of the eldest son, even if he risked his life, he would defy the imperial decree.

But he also knew Wei Zhong's kindness to comfort him, so he thanked him privately.

After Eunuch Wei left, it was already getting dark, so Gu Ge asked everyone to go back to their rooms.

Not to mention how difficult the Gu family was to sleep and eat tonight, the Jia family rejoiced when they received the imperial decree, except for Mrs. Rong Guogong's wife Shi Shi and the Jia family's second son named Jia Zheng.

Jia She looked at the imperial decree in his father's hand with joy, and then glanced at the second younger brother who was looking ugly, and was very happy, "Father, I really want to marry the granddaughter of Gu Ge's hometown?" I also heard from my grandmother that she has good looks and a good temper, coupled with the family background of the Gu family, Jia She is really satisfied with such a wife, not to mention seeing Jia Zheng's face now, he is even more proud.

Jia Daishan touched the bright yellow imperial decree, and he was also proud of the spring breeze, "It's natural, take a rest in the future, and the Gu family will be there by then, so you can go with me to the Gu family." As he said, he looked at his eldest son with a happy face, feeling in his heart, When he chose his eldest daughter-in-law, he also chose it from a literati family in Qingliu, so that he could help the Jia family to enter the literati circle. After all, there are no battles to fight now, and civil servants are more popular.

It is also possible to let the children and grandchildren read and practice essays, but the family has no resources.What's more, the eldest son's qualifications are not good, and he was raised by the old lady. Although the second son loves to study, he has not passed the exam at the age of 16. Although the gentleman he hired said that he studied well, he has no fame after all.

As for the nephew in the Ningguo mansion next door, although he has won a Jinshi, he can't do it alone. If the Jia family wants to continue to be prosperous for decades, it must be married by Wu Zhuanwen and the scholarly family.

At first, he chose middle-class families. After all, he knew what his son was like.But when he was discussing with his bedridden mother, the old lady asked him to try to propose marriage with the Gu family, and if he failed, he would go to intercede with the Holy One.

Sure enough, the Gu family didn't agree at first, but in the end they had a good result.Although this is not a gentleman's move and offended the Gu family, but the old saying goes well, the meat will only know its benefits when it is in the pot.He has been marching and fighting for many years, and he has never used any strategy.Besides, when the two families really become in-laws in the future, for the sake of the Gu family's daughter living well in the Jia family, his Gu family will no longer hold on to this matter. If they still can't calm down, they will bring their son over and let his family Just a few more punches.

As for the son who was beaten, I married him a good wife, so can I still feel sorry for him?

After thinking for a while, Jia Daishan looked at the elder son on the side and said, "Okay, go and tell your grandmother the good news. You can marry the daughter of the Gu family. It was decided by the Holy Majesty for your grandmother's sake." , you have to be filial to your grandmother."

Jia Amnesty nodded quickly, greeted Shi Shi, and went to announce the good news to his grandmother with a smile.

Jia Shishi's complexion was a little bad, looking at the wronged second son, he said to her husband: "Why did the master get married with the Gu family? I was discussing the marriage with Mrs. Wang's family a while ago!" With such a good marriage from the Gu family, why did the master get married? I didn't think about giving it to the second son. Zheng'er will take the imperial examination in the future, so it's better to marry the Gu family!

Jia Daishan waved his hand, and said indifferently: "Don't mention the disappearance of the Wang family. After Xi'er became the son-in-law of the Gu family, the Jia family finally got involved with the literati. As for the Wang family," Jia Daishan looked at him narrowly. Son, "Wang Ziteng, the second son of the Wang family, is young and promising. Let Zheng'er marry a daughter of the Wang family. The relationship between the two families can be closer."

When Jia Shishi heard that his beloved young son was going to marry the daughter of the Wang family, he was in a bad mood.

Jia Zheng on the other side looked like he was about to faint, but he knew that the Wang family daughter was illiterate.He hated in his heart: Why did he want to marry such a wife, but Jia She was able to marry a famous lady from Ge's hometown? Could it be because Jia She is a few years older than himself, and everything that is good will be taken by him? take it?Heaven is unfair!My father valued his appearance on weekdays. Could it be that he was just pretending.

Seeing the resentment on her younger son's face, Jia Shishi was startled, and hurriedly pulled him behind her, not letting her husband see his son's expression, she tried to say to Jia Daishan: "Here, Zheng'er is good at studying, isn't it? It is time to choose a daughter-in-law from a scholarly family, with the help of the Yue family, after all, she can also get help in the imperial examination."

When Jia Daishan heard the words, he also agreed in his heart, but after all, he was married to the Gu family. It is impossible for both daughters-in-law to come from literati families. Besides, although the Jia family wants to rely on the literati circle, it is not a matter of one or two generations after all. Parents also need to be maintained.

He also stopped talking to his wife and children, thinking that he would go to Gu's house in the future, and said, "I'll talk about Zheng'er's wedding later, madam, I'll go to the warehouse to find some calligraphy and paintings." , take them with you the day after tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.

Jia Shishi secretly resented, and had nothing to do with her husband, so she could only comfort her injured young son in private.

Jia Amnesty, on the other hand, went to Rongqingtang to visit the old Mrs. Rongguo beamingly.

The old lady was half lying on the bed, her face was blue and her lips were pale, she seemed to have taken away all her energy after a serious illness.

"Grandmother, the Holy Spirit ordered me to marry Miss Gu's family. The master will take me to Gu's family in the future."

The old lady looked at the handsome grandson, and couldn't help showing a smile on her face. She touched the grandson's face with her skinny hand and said, "Really? Then you have to behave well, and you have to let Mr. Gu and Gu Shilang talk to each other." You are satisfied."

After speaking, she coughed a few times.

Jia Amnesty got up and patted his grandmother on the back, feeling sore in his heart, and promised, "Grandmother, don't worry, I will behave well, and you just wait to marry your grandson-in-law."

Looking at the old lady's gray temples, he couldn't help comforting him, "Grandmother should pay more attention to her body."

The old lady nodded with a smile, and drove him out after a short while, "Okay, you go back and rest quickly, recover your energy, and go to Gu's residence the day after tomorrow."

After Jia She bowed her head and said goodbye, the old mother who was waiting by the bed tucked the quilt for the old lady, and said with a smile: "It's all right now, the uncle is going to marry a wife, is the old lady happy?"

The old lady smiled and said nothing.

Thinking that the eldest grandson will still look innocent even if he is going to get married, the old lady is still worried.

Alas, in the entire Rongguo Mansion, besides her, who else can Sheer rely on in the future?

Although the son also likes Sheer, the eldest son, but it is more for the sake of the family, and he usually looks down on Sheer for this or that.That daughter-in-law, because she raised She'er by her side since she was a child, is only out of respect for She'er, and even more partial to her younger son.All these years, she watched coldly, that Shi Shi probably blamed She'er.

She was afraid that no one would take care of her grandson after she died, so she had to find a solid and reliable Yue family for her grandson.The Gu family was chosen because the Gu family was noble and won the emperor's heart. With such a family, the Shi family will take care of face when the granddaughter-in-law enters the door in the future.

It's just that she also knew that the Gu family looked down on the eldest grandson, so she had to put on an old face and ask her son to ask the emperor to marry him.Although I feel sorry for the Gu family, but for the sake of her grandson, she is willing to let it go. Fortunately, she also dealt with Mr. Gu when she was young, and this old face still has some face with the Holy Majesty. What is the purpose of this marriage? It's done.
