Chapter 333
When Mrs. Xu Zhang heard this, her face was filled with smiles.
"I don't dare to take credit. It's all thanks to Master Gu's good teachings. The fifth child in our family has been strong since he was a child. He can work well, but he doesn't do anything well. He needs someone to teach him. In the past two years, Master Gu has troubled himself..."
You don’t need to pay back your wages. This is really nice to say. If you are stingy, just be stingy. If you don’t pay, you won’t be given.
I did the work for a year or two, but I didn’t even get new clothes...
Who is not a fool?
Mrs. Xu Zhang cursed these words in her heart but did not say them out loud. She still had a smile on her face.
Xu Youde was not as petty as Xu Zhang. He sincerely thanked Master Gu and his family, "The fifth child in our family only has a handful of energy, and there is no extra land for him to grow at home. Let him go out and learn a craft." I'm lucky to have Master Gu take me in!"
Gu Shiniang smiled broadly and said, "Hey, don't say this, we really like Daqing. We have a affinity for him when we look at him. This is fate destined by God and is inseparable. Today, we, the couple, are indeed Something happened..."
Xu Jiaojiao couldn't wait any longer. Alas, this finally got to the point.
After taking such a big detour before getting to the main topic, I'm afraid it's going to be a big deal.
Mrs. Xu Zhang replied, "What's the matter? Tell us. We are all ears."
Xu Laowu, who was watching, suddenly became nervous.
Gu Shiniang coughed lightly and said, "Actually, this is a great happy event. Originally, we, the old couple, should not have talked about it in person, but your family is not an outsider, and we, the old couple, really like this kid from Daqing." , so I shamelessly dragged Lao Gu over."
The old couple Xu Youde looked like they were falling into the clouds.
Big happy event?
Where does joy come from?
Why couldn't I see any joy on Xu Laowu's face?
Just annoyed?
Mrs. Gu thought for a while and then said, "It's like this. Lao Gu and I have a daughter. She is seventeen years old this year. Her name is Gu Xiu'er. Uncle and aunt, you know that, right?"
When Xu Laowu became a disciple, he learned about Master Gu's family environment.
Mrs. Xu Zhang nodded suspiciously, "I know, it is said that your family is an only daughter, and your daughter is also a lucky girl. She was reborn under your name, and she is also a delicate daughter."
I don’t know what it means. Let’s put it in a nicer way. It’s absolutely correct.
Mrs. Gu said happily, "Yes, yes, yes, Lao Gu and I have no children, and we only have one precious daughter. What I want to say today is that Daqing is already eighteen, and we haven't gotten married. Our daughter, Seventeen, has not said anything." People, do you think, can our two families become in-laws? In the future, we will be able to rest assured and pass on all our skills to Daqing. Wouldn’t this be the best of both worlds and everyone would be happy?”
As soon as this statement came out, Mrs. Xu Zhang was shocked.
This, this, this...
It does sound like a happy event! The fifth child is so valued by the master, and they are naturally happy as parents.
However, how can there be any reason for the girl’s parents to come to propose marriage to their daughter in person?
Even when Xu Jiaojiao talked about Liao Qing, Xu Zhang always invited matchmakers to come to propose marriage.
There is no suggestion that she personally went to the door to promote her daughter.
Xu Zhang couldn't help but look at Xu Laowu...
Xu Laowu had a look of constipation on his face and shook his head at Mrs. Xu Zhang, as if he had some unspeakable addiction.
Xu Jiaojiao was also curious. When her fifth brother came back, master Gu and his wife came to propose marriage to their daughter? What was going on?
According to her judgment, this marriage, which seemed to be suitable for both parties, could not be easily agreed to.
She also gave Mrs. Xu Zhang a wink.
Mrs. Xu Zhang didn't receive Xu Laowu's signal. Her son was as clumsy as a donkey, so she could completely ignore him.
But she still understands the signal of kissing her daughter instantly.
"Master Gu, if you can think highly of our fifth child, you have really promoted him. We are all happy for him. It is a good thing that the two families have become in-laws and have a closer relationship. However, there is a marriage contract with the fifth child. He goes out
Before I became an apprentice, I had already settled on a girl from our countryside..." Mrs. Xu Zhang looked at Mrs. Gu's face and replied cautiously.
This was a polite refusal, for fear of offending Master Gu and his wife.
However, the rumors about Xu Laowu's engagement are not groundless. The Xu family did arrange a marriage for Xu Laowu before.
That girl and the fifth child are destined to get married.
Xu Youde once had a good brother named Duan Dashi, both of whom were trained as bricklayers.
There was a little girl in the Duan family who was born on the same day, same month, and same year as the fifth child. The two families were so happy that they said they were going to be married since childhood.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Xu Zhang is not anxious about Lao Wu's marriage. She already has a partner.
This girl Duan is also a hard-working and capable girl. When Lao Wu went out to learn skills, she even sought permission from Duan's family.
Now that Miss Duan is eighteen years old, the fifth child has not even complained, and he cannot let down Miss Duan either emotionally or rationally.
If it were the thin-skinned woman's parents who heard Xu Zhang's words, they would consciously stop the conversation.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gu just swallowed her breath and seemed to have objections, but she continued to speak, "Aunt Xu, to tell you the truth, our Xiu'er just fell in love with your fifth child. The conditions of our family, in
Not to mention how good Shazhou County is, there are people who have houses and make a living. Not to mention being rich and powerful, they definitely don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Our Xiuer is also good-looking and the right age. She usually comes to our house.
There are quite a few people asking for marriage, but Xiu'er is such a stubborn girl that she just likes the fifth child in your family, otherwise, we, the old couple, wouldn't have asked these two old faces to have this marriage!"
This, this, this...
Is there such a secret?
Could it be that Xu Laowu, a little beast, went to mess with this girl's family?
Is there any reason to seduce a girl without going through an appointment with a matchmaker or the words of her parents?
Their old Xu family has never been the family to do this kind of thing!
Ms. Xu Zhang didn’t know how to answer the call!
If this was the case, she would have to beat the bastard Lao Wu to death first.
I obviously have a baby kissing me, but I still mess with other people's girls. Isn't this harming others?
Here, Xu Youde's face turned dark and he asked Xu Lao Wu, "Lao Wu, what's going on?"
Xu Laowu's face turned pale with anger, but the elders didn't let him interrupt when they spoke, so he just endured it. He didn't know that Mrs. Gu was so thick-skinned and could say such things.
"Mom, Dad, I haven't, I haven't said a few words to Gu Xiu'er."
Gu Xiuer usually looked down on him at all and always thought he was a weakling!
