Gu Xinian didn't want to elaborate, and was about to make a few casual remarks, but Mrs. Zheng said: "If you don't tell me honestly, don't expect me to stand on your side."
When Gu Xinian heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. What he had thought before was right. His mother had always liked Ye Qinglan. As long as he could convince his mother first, he would be able to get a lot of help.
Thinking of this, Gu Xinian's attitude naturally made a 360-degree turn: "If mother wants to know anything, just ask."
Mrs. Zheng felt angry and funny at the same time, and there was a hint of sour sadness in her heart. What else could she ask? Just looking at Gu Xinian's attitude, she knew how much he cared about Ye Qinglan. She had had some premonitions before.
, I didn’t expect the premonition to come true...
"When did you and Sister Lan get together?" Mrs. Zheng asked straightforwardly: "I remember, didn't you two dislike each other before? We had quarreled a few times, why did you suddenly do that now?
Did you say you like her again?"
Gu Xinian thought for a while and replied implicitly: "I probably started paying attention to her when we were quarreling."
Mrs. Zheng laughed dumbly and couldn't help but complain a few words: "Since you like her, why didn't you tell me earlier so that I could be mentally prepared. Now it would be better if you brought her into the palace to meet the Queen.
We just found out. No wonder your grandmother lost such a big temper..."
"If I told you earlier, would she still have a chance to enter the palace?" Gu Xinian asked back.
Mrs. Zheng was speechless. If Gu Xinian had leaked the news beforehand, and not to anyone else, Sun would have strongly opposed it. With her influence on Queen Gu, I am afraid it would be even more difficult for Gu Xinian to convince Queen Gu.
Got it!
Gu Xinian slowed down his tone again: "Mom, it was indeed my fault before, and I shouldn't have kept hiding it from you. However, I really like her. If mother really cares about me, she will convince my father for me. As long as you all
Nod, my grandparents have no reason to stop me."
Mrs. Zheng gave a bitter smile and sighed: "I am just a biological son like you, so who else can I help if I don't help you?" In other words, Mrs. Zheng has completely stood by his side!
Gu Xinian perked up and showed a rare cheerful smile: "Thank you, Mother."
Mrs. Zheng smiled and rolled her eyes at him, thinking secretly in her heart. To be honest, Ye Qinglan was indeed a lovable girl, almost impeccable except for her low status. However, since Gu Xinian was so fond of her, this was a fly in the ointment.
I can only skip it as much as possible.
Gu Xinian finally got over Shen Qiuyu's blow and finally agreed to marry. It was too late for her to be happy, and she could not care about being picky. The most important thing now is to convince Gu Hong that as long as the husband and wife work together, the father-in-law and mother-in-law will naturally do the same.
Will give in...
That night, Mrs. Zheng began to do Gu Hong's ideological work: "...Sir, you have also seen that girl Lan Jie'er. She has a delicate appearance and is smart. Although she is of lower status, she is marryable.
A wife should marry a virtuous man, and if Xinian can really marry her, he will be able to flourish our Gu family as soon as possible."
Seeing that Gu Hong didn't say anything, Mrs. Zheng sighed again: "When Xinian and Shen Qiuyu fell in love, we didn't stop them. We thought that as long as Xinian liked him, family background wouldn't matter. But we didn't expect that what happened later would happen.
Waiting for something to happen, it happened that the prince also took a fancy to Shen Qiuyu, and even asked his mother-in-law to see her. Her mother-in-law was confused for a moment, but she actually agreed. As a result, the prince got his wish, but Xinian was hit hard and almost collapsed. Let alone
Now that he is married, he avoids the topic whenever it is brought up. He has been putting it off for several years! He is now twenty-one years old and has not yet decided on a marriage. He even refuses to marry Miss Zhang from the British government. When he thinks of it,
I feel bad about all this. Now that he has finally changed his mind and has the woman he likes, we as parents can simply help him. Otherwise, we can't really watch him be alone!"
After the initial shock, Gu Hong began to slowly ponder the possibility of this matter. Hearing this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, I am not that opposed to this matter. However, you have also seen my mother's reaction before. Her
She has a stubborn temperament and a very important family background, so it will be even more difficult for her to nod and agree to this matter."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng immediately became energetic. As long as Gu Hong doesn't object, it's fine: "There are indeed some difficulties with my mother-in-law. However, as long as we both nod in agreement, I don't expect my mother-in-law to object all the time. Father-in-law."
On that side, it’s up to you to deal with it.”
Gu Hong thought for a while and finally nodded.
Mrs. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. When she thought about the matter again, she couldn't help but feel happy again. As long as she could convince her parents-in-law, the marriage could be settled. After Ye Qinglan got married, she would arrange the marriage and make arrangements to get her back.
Already...
In the Izuyun Pavilion, Gu Xiyu asked with a sullen face: "Brother, why are you doing this? You clearly know that Cousin Lan doesn't want to marry you. Isn't it unreasonable to do this?"
Gu Xinian had never had such a headache when dealing with his shrewd grandfather and difficult grandmother. He patiently explained: "Yu'er, I've told you many times. Cousin Lan and I are in love, and so is she.
I will be happy to marry you..."
"You lied!" Gu Xiyu's eyes were full of accusations: "This is all your wishful thinking. Cousin Lan never told me that she wanted to marry you!"
Gu Xinian: "..."
Ye Qinglan, this girl, clearly knew that Yu'er had misunderstood, but she deliberately did not explain anything and allowed Yu'er to misunderstand like this. She clearly wanted to see his joke!
If Ye Qinglan wanted to use this incident to let him have a taste of being obstructed, then she succeeded. He finally began to reflect on the rare occasion. Is it true that he has always insisted on preventing Yu'er from interacting with that Shen Chang'an?
Too much?
Naturally, Gu Xiyu didn't know what he was thinking, so she continued angrily: "Now that Cousin Lan has entered the palace to meet the Queen, many people will know about it soon. How can you get her married in the future?"
"She could only marry me. It doesn't matter whether others know or not." Gu Xinian was determined to convince Gu Xiyu: "There is something you don't know yet! As soon as Cousin Lan returned home, her aunt
With bad intentions, he actually wanted to betroth her to the fourth son of Mr. Lu, the Minister of Rites. The man named Lu Yi has been sick since he was a child. He has been lying on the hospital bed and drinking medicine every day to survive. Maybe one day he will die.
She's dead. You don't want her to marry such a person!"
Gu Xiyu's face turned pale after hearing this: "What should we do with cousin Lan? Brother, you must save her."
"Of course." Gu Xinian responded smoothly: "That's why I asked the Queen to invite cousin Lan into the palace and revealed her intention to marry. In this way, that Xue family would not dare to
Don’t act rashly again.”
Gu Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Gu Xinian say again: "Aren't you always worried that I will bully her? Now I promise you that as long as Cousin Lan marries me, I will definitely treat her well."
Gu Xiyu's attitude finally softened: "Brother, do you really like her sincerely?"
Gu Xinian nodded.
Gu Xiyu immediately asked: "Then do you still miss Shen Qiuyu?"
In the past, whenever I mentioned this name, I would be filled with heartache and hatred, but now, this intense emotion has quietly gone away. Gu Xinian's mood was as calm as his voice: "I really can't forget Shen Qiuyu. However, that absolute It’s not that I like her. I only have cousin Lan in my heart now.”
Gu Xiyu looked at Gu Xinian seriously and said after a long while: "Brother, I believe you."
Gu Xinian felt happy, but before he could speak, he heard Gu Xiyu continue: "However, this is just your idea. Cousin Lan may not think the same as you. I have to ask her personally. .”
…
Gu Xinian suddenly missed the gentle and lovely sister in the past. No matter what he said, Gu Xiyu believed it unconditionally. But look at now, her heart has long been inclined to Ye Qinglan. His brother's status is She has traveled so fast that she doesn't even want to believe what she says!
Gu Xinian was complaining in his heart, but a gentle smile appeared on his face: "Okay, in a few days it will be Yongnian's wedding day. She will definitely come with her aunt to congratulate her. Then you can ask her in person. alright."
Gu Xiyu nodded seriously.
Gu Yongnian's wedding day was set for September 28th, and it was finally coming. First, his second uncle Gu Bo came back, and then his concubine brother Gu Shengnian's family of five returned to the house. In addition to the excitement and busy work, Gu Xinian The marriage issues were temporarily put aside.
Of course, this does not mean that Mrs. Sun acquiesced to this matter. On the contrary, Mrs. Sun secretly made great efforts to "solve" this matter, but she just couldn't think of a good way for the moment.
Ye Qinglan's life has not been easy recently.
After returning from the palace, she and Mrs. When she came to see her, he directly ordered her to stay in the house to "rest in peace" and not to go out of Hefeng Courtyard. Every morning when greeting her, Mr. Xue kept sarcastic and sarcastic. He even embarrassed her in front of the maids and women.
Mrs. Xue originally planned to use the marriage to completely deceive her, but she didn't expect that Queen Gu would appear halfway and completely disrupt her wishful thinking. What's even more hateful is that even Mrs. Jiang warned her several times openly and secretly. Before Queen Gu's decree arrives, Ye Qinglan's marriage must not be decided at will.
As a result, Mrs.
Ye Qinglan adhered to the principle of neither listening nor watching, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and managed to get through it. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation. )
