Xie Li responded: "She is polite and well-educated. She is a well-educated woman. She is not familiar with me, and she will not pretend to be so."
"At that time, I knew that she was the daughter of the Gu family in Huizhou, and I didn't know how happy I was. I just learned from others that she had countless suitors, and even famous men such as Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhang were also her subordinates. I was immediately discouraged.
Feeling cold."
"I am a member of my own family who knows my own affairs. How could I compete with these famous men? I didn't expect..."
Xie Li couldn't help but smile as he spoke, and whispered: "This Miss Gu is the girl of my dreams. Ever since that meeting, I have been crazy about her."
Having said this, I was embarrassed to thank him for the gift, but I couldn't hide the excitement and joy on my face.
Xie Fu felt a pain in his heart, recalling the words explained by Gu Quan - there is a way of life and death, and wealth is in nature. However, wealth and happiness can only be obtained through prayer, otherwise there would not be so many people seeking happiness for themselves.
You fight to the death for wealth and honor.
In addition to his hopes, his brother also took practical actions, but he gave up without asking for anything.
Shouldn't God favor my brother more? He deserves to end up like this.
"Brother, what will happen if this marriage fails halfway and you don't get Miss Gu?"
Xie Li looked at Fu Xie curiously: "Why do you ask?"
Xie Fu smiled and said, "I'm worried about brother. I'm afraid that something will happen and you won't be able to bear it."
Xie Li said calmly: "I am fortunate to have gained it, but I have lost my life."
Xie Fu was shocked and happy when he heard this, and was already ready to move.
At this time, Xie Li gently patted Xie Fu on the shoulder, "Fu, a man, no matter what you can afford, you must also be able to let it go!"
These words made Xie Fu enlightened and shocked in his heart.
Yes, I just can’t let go!
Could it be that because he couldn't let go, he would not hesitate to steal his brother's fiancée and turn against his brother, leaving grandpa disappointed?
Will this warm and harmonious home be disturbed?
As long as he lets go, everything will develop for the better.
"Thank you for your advice, brother."
Xie Li sighed with emotion: "Fu, I wanted to tell you these words before, but I couldn't find the right opportunity to speak."
"I'm always worried that you will be in a dilemma over the matter of He Qing and Miss Wang Clan, and it will be difficult for you to extricate yourself. In fact, the solution to the problem is very simple. When you can't force it, just let it go, and you will find a brighter future."
Xie Fu nodded, his brother is really his good teacher and helpful friend.
Xie Li smiled and said: "Although my talents are not as good as yours, a wise king still needs to meet wise ministers."
After leaving Xie Li's room, Xie Fu felt much more open-minded and no longer depressed.
When Xiaoxian Xiaoya saw Fu Xie coming back, she was uneasy and heard Fu Xie ask loudly, "Is the meal ready?"
The two girls were so busy worrying about Xie Fu that they forgot about it.
Xiaoxian said weakly: "Not yet, Master."
Xie Fu smiled and said, "Then hurry up and cook for me."
Xiaoya asked gently: "Master, are you okay?"
Xie Fu actually raised his hand and slapped Xiaoya Qiaoqiao.
Xiaoya covered her butt, but she was very happy. The young master would joke with them, so it should be okay.
The two women cooked a sumptuous meal for Xie Fu. Xie Fu also had a good appetite and ate a big meal.
…
Early the next morning, the convoy delivering the betrothal gifts gathered at the gate of Xie's Mansion and set off.
Na Cai's proposal of marriage is also one of the six rites. Xie Li, the groom-to-be, needs to avoid suspicion, so Xie Guangde and Xie Fu come forward on behalf of the Xie family.
The journey to Huizhou, which is 800 miles away, takes two or three days by fast travel.
Gu Xianting has been eating and praying in the temple these days to thank God for his kindness.
She has always been pious about these things.
As soon as she returned to the house, she heard Xiu'er running up to the attic: "Miss, Miss..."
Gu Xianting saw Xiu'er blushing and panting, seeming to be coming in a hurry, and secretly wondered if something unexpected had happened, and hurriedly asked: "Xiu'er, you are so flustered, what happened?"
After Xiu'er took a deep breath, she smiled and said, "The Xie family's marriage proposal convoy has arrived."
When Gu Xianting heard this, she was overjoyed and blurted out: "Really? Where is it?"
"Right at the gate, there is a formation of more than a dozen carriages, and the betrothal gifts are huge!"
Um... Gu Xianting didn't know what to say for a moment, "Is he here?"
Xiuer smiled and said, "Who is it?"
"He."
"Miss, if you don't tell me clearly, if you just say "he, he, he, I won't know who it is."
Gu Xianting knew that Xiu'er wanted to make fun of him, but he didn't care about being shy and reserved, and asked directly: "Thank you, sir!"
Xiu'er responded: "There are too many people, so I didn't see clearly."
"Xiu'er, let's go take a look."
After not seeing each other for some days, Gu Xianting missed Xie Fu very much and wished she could jump up to him now and say a few words to him.
Xiu'er said: "Miss, you are a bride-to-be who is preparing to become a monk. How can you show up?"
"Let's find a secluded place and just take a peek."
As Gu Xianting spoke, he was afraid that Xiu'er would say something to persuade him, so he took Xiu'er's hand and left, walking as cheerfully as a deer jumping in the mountain stream.
The two of them walked through the courtyard and came to the front yard. They couldn't show themselves directly, so they found a big tree, hid behind it, and looked at it from a distance between the pavilion pillars and railings.
It was just like this but I couldn't see clearly. I could only see a mixture of carriages, horses and people, making a lot of noise and excitement.
Gu Xianting opened her beautiful eyes, looking here and there, changing many directions, but still couldn't find an angle to get a full picture.
"Xiu'er, have you seen her?"
"Miss, I didn't see it. Could it be that you didn't come?"
Gu Xianting felt disappointed when he heard this. Doesn't he want to see me?
He raised his head and glanced at the green magnolia above his head, and said, "Xiu'er, let's climb up the tree to have a clearer view."
Xiu'er was surprised when she heard this: "Miss, you are a lady, how could you do such a vulgar thing?"
"Who said ladies can't do vulgar things? I have to do it."
Xiu'er smiled helplessly. Now the young lady is looking forward to meeting Xie Fu, and nothing can stop her. She thinks about how many crazy things the young lady did in the past because of her passion, but how could she stop her again.
It's just that Gu Xianting has never climbed a tree before. After putting it into practice, he found that it is not that easy.
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw that the young lady had no idea what to do and just kept jumping up without caring about her image. She couldn't catch anything and slid down.
After a few moments, Gu Xianting's face turned red, sweat broke out, and she complained: "Why are you laughing? Why don't you help me quickly?"
Xiu'er smiled and said, "Miss, how about I go bring a chair over."
"What kind of chairs are you moving? When you move the chairs, everyone will have entered the hall."
"What's the use of being anxious? Miss, you taught me how to sharpen a knife and chop wood. Miss, what's the use if you can never get out like this."
Speaking of chairs, Gu Xianting looked at Xiu'er with a smile.
Xiu'er was looked down upon by Gu Xianting. She knew the young lady too well after being a maid for so many years. This kind of look meant that the young lady was scheming against her.
"What a show."
Xiu'er's heart became even more hairy when she heard the lady's heart-melting voice. She said weakly: "Miss, what do you want to do?"
"I feel sorry for you being used as a chair."
Xiu'er breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death. What did I think was going on?"
Xiu'er squatted down, Gu Xianting put his foot gently on Xiu'er's shoulder, and did not forget to ask gently: "Xiu'er, is it heavy?"
