Gu Chen would not be stingy with his kindness towards this kind and simple aunt, and said with a smile: "Thanks to you for taking care of me all this time, my little care is nothing."
After looking at Gu Dahuai, who was chatting with Uncle Li by the fire, his voice lowered slightly, "Auntie, I want to find a companion for..., can you see if there is any suitable partner?"
Pointing at Gu Dahuai with her finger, Aunt Li immediately realized that she wanted to find it first without telling Gu Dahuai.
He quickly leaned over and said kindly, "That's easy to talk about. I'll go and find out about it tomorrow. Everyone is here during the Chinese New Year, so it's easy to find out."
"You have to be more virtuous and good at managing the household. You know his temperament. If he marries a weakling again, the family will only become more chaotic." After Gu Chen stated his requirements, he asked, "What about this?"
Are there any requirements for getting married? Please tell me in detail."
Only parents worry about their children's marriage, and when it's the Gu family's turn, it's their daughter's turn to worry about it.
Aunt Li didn't think it was inappropriate. She had already seen that Gu Chen was in charge now, and the father could only listen.
After listening, Gu Chen tapped his fingers slightly on the table. His slender jade-carved fingers were as warm and shiny as jade. He pondered for a moment and said: "I can pay three gold, and I will add another 30% to the betrothal gift. Does the bride's family have any dowry?"
It doesn’t matter, as long as the person is nice.”
It took Aunt Li a while to recover, but it would be easier to find someone like this.
Listening to the constant sound of firecrackers outside, she kindly reminded: "Daughter, your uncle has come back with a fortune. You saw their family walking around, especially that Gu Jiao, so I took a photo from a distance.
Not a man of integrity."
It is precisely because of this that Gu Chen is willing to take care of the Li family.
Gu Jiao was waiting for Gu Chen to come over at home. She had teased her family until they left in disgrace, but she never swallowed this bad breath.
Come back now, hum! I must let her know what regret is!
But when the sound of firecrackers subsided, Gu Chen didn't come up. She was so angry that she swept all the clothes piled on the bed to the ground, "Why doesn't she come?! I'm back and I don't even show my face!"
He rushed out of the house and ran to Liu Jin'e who was packing her things to go back to her parents' house for dinner. She asked angrily, "Mom, have you ever gone to your uncle's house? Have you seen that bastard!"
Liu Jin'e immediately covered her daughter's mouth, "Jiaojiao, don't ruin your parents' important affairs. Your father has other plans for that bastard. Don't worry, as long as she follows us to Coastal City, huh! How can we fight and scold her?
It’s not up to you yet.”
Gu Jiao knew best what her parents relied on to make a fortune. When she heard this, the anger on her face disappeared and she started to giggle, "It's not much. If she gets it into my hands, she will have a hard time."
It was getting dark, and Yangliu Village, which had been bustling all day, gradually became quiet. A few roars of domestic dogs added a bit of mystery to the quiet night.
Gu Dahuai, who was cooking in the kitchen, suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. He was chopping meat and said to Gu Chen who was busy lighting the fire: "Chenchen, go and see if there is someone knocking on the door?"
When Gu Chen opened the door to the small courtyard and saw the person coming in the dim light, he almost threw out the poker in his hand. He was surprised and asked: "How did you find my house?" He blurted out in fluent American English.
"Gu, your house... is too hard to find. This gentleman should bring me here." Bertram, who came from the United States, patted the snowflakes on his shoulders and turned to a man in his early thirties who brought him over and said very loudly.
