Recently, He Gu has developed a new habit of reading the "Almanac" every time before getting up.
Today is no exception.
[The ninth day of the twelfth lunar month is suitable for practicing and refining elixirs; marriage and martial arts competitions are taboo.]
After receiving the information from the secret stone in his body, he immediately laughed out loud.
Today is the day he and the Shen family agreed to meet the woman!
The Shen family is the oldest and oldest family in Qingshan City, and its patriarch is also the lord of Qingshan City. In Qingshan City, the Shen family can be said to be at its peak.
Shen Jiangli, the daughter of the Shen family, is his fiancée whom he has never met. Her character is unknown, but I heard she is good-looking.
The He family is very small and young. It has only been established in Qingshan City for more than ten years. It is only a small family with a few people. Logically speaking, it cannot be as high as the Shen family.
However, the He family has some unclear relationship with his master, Leng Qingzhu.
When the He family entered Qingshan City, Leng Qingzhu made a special appearance for a while. Under the false pretence of the fox and the tiger, he immediately attracted the attention of the Shen family, so the two families, who were not in the right family, decided to get married.
Except for He Gu himself, neither family actually knows the true identity of Leng Qingzhu.
He had no way of knowing the depth of the secret back then, nor could he figure out how the powerful Leng Qingzhu got involved with the family.
Anyway, he was resistant to this marriage. Two people with no emotional foundation were forced to get together, and he was disgusted just thinking about it.
"It's best if you're yellow!" He Gu wished he could.
After the excitement, I thought of the fragile image in my heart and became worried again.
"Why would my future junior sister want to kill me..."
Looking inside at the pebbles floating quietly in his Dantian, he shook his head.
A month ago, this secret stone appeared in his body for no reason.
After some exploration, he discovered that this small stone, which looked like jade but not jade, had the magical function of detecting opportunities and knowing misfortunes and blessings.
But the Tianji Stone's first prediction of misfortune and fortune was extremely cruel, and the words were dazzlingly bright red.
[Lin Qier: Killing Senior Brother (A Hundred Years Later)]
He really couldn't figure it out, and it's still hard for him to accept it to this day.
Is it because of this marriage?
The two grew up as childhood sweethearts. Although Lin Bian'er never expressed his feelings, he knew that his junior sister's heart had always been with him.
After thinking about it, he felt more and more that the breakdown of their relationship in the future would most likely be caused by this marriage.
No matter what, it's best to find a way to get rid of it now...
Suppressing his distracting thoughts, He Gu got up, tidied up his appearance, and then opened the door facing the rising sun.
The clan leader, He Qinghai, and the only two elders in the clan had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he came out, they all had smiles on their faces.
"Father, two elders." He Gu greeted politely.
Looking at his son who has grown much taller and is almost catching up with his own strength, He Qinghai feels happy.
With this son, there will be no regrets in life.
He patted He Gu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's not easy for you to come back once a year. This time we have benefited from Girl Shen."
You can say this despite the slight soreness in your nose.
He Qinghai just said it casually, but he didn't expect that it would be superfluous and spoil the happy atmosphere.
The elder on the side smiled and changed the subject: "Let's go to the Shen family to meet the future young lady. The young patriarch must have been waiting for this day for a long time."
Others immediately followed suit.
No matter how much you enjoy this kind of joke between relatives, you don’t want to point it out.
The marriage contract was decided by the old man of the two families. Even if he wanted to refuse, he had to pay attention to the method.
The best situation is of course for the Shen family to take the initiative to break the contract, and privately the two families will break up and everyone will be happy.
The four of them left the family and got into the monster car, chatting and laughing while the car headed towards the Shen family.
After passing through half of the city, the He family's monster car entered the most prosperous area of the city.
Soon, the tribesmen driving the cart reminded them of their arrival.
The high-walled door of the Shen family is closed tightly. For such a large family, there is not even a gatekeeper at the door.
After getting out of the curtain, everyone was stunned, and the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared.
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, and the two elders looked a little ugly.
It is impossible for the Shen family to forget such a life-long event.
He Qinghai was furious and gritted his teeth and said: "What do they mean!"
He Gu frowned, but he was actually so happy that he felt so sleepy that his pillow came over him.
At this time, the inner hall of Shen's living room.
The head of the Shen family, Shen Zhengli, was sitting in the upper seat, leisurely sipping the freshly brewed spiritual tea, while the lady behind him was squeezing his back.
A clan member came forward to report: "The people from the He family have arrived at the gate."
Shen Zhengli remained unmoved, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Mrs. Shen raised her hand to dismiss the clan members, then turned to Shen Zheng and said sternly: "Husband, this is inappropriate, the marriage was decided by the old lady..."
Shen Zhengli snorted coldly: "This is our only daughter, how can we push her into the pit of fire?"
"Didn't the old man say back then that there was a strong man behind the He family?"
"A woman's opinion! Maybe the old man made a mistake back then. If there was such a big shot, the He family would not be like this half-dead now."
After thinking about it, Mrs. Shen thought it made sense, and then she persuaded her again: "The whole city knows about the marriage between the two families. If we don't say anything about the eventuality, it would be a disgrace to the Shen family to bury them like this and spread the news. Since my husband wants to change his mind, why not let them Come in and make them retreat when they see the difficulty. This not only saves the Shen family's face, but also saves them trouble in the future."
Shen Zhengli put down his tea cup and agreed again and again.
"Come here, bring in the people from the He family."
……
He Qinghai had a gloomy face and had the urge to kick open the door of Shen's house.
The two elders knew his temper well and quickly stabilized him.
Although He Gu was so happy, he was somewhat unhappy in his heart. It was not because the other party had gone back on his word, but the way the Shen family had gone back on his word was a bit insulting.
"Come on! Who cares?" He Qinghai was so angry that his veins bulged.
After being persuaded by the two elders, he calmed down a bit. The situation was stronger than others, so he could only swallow this breath.
Afraid that He Gu would be negative because of this, he forced out a smile and comforted him: "Gu'er, dad will definitely find a better one for you in the future. This kind of person who doesn't keep his word is not worthy of being the He family's wife."
He Gu didn't take it seriously and said calmly: "They can't blame me for giving up."
He Qinghai and the two elders were stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, they all remembered that icy beauty with terrifying strength and fairy-like appearance.
This unknown and mysterious fairy who is difficult to approach was not only the benefactor of the He family back then, but now he is also the master of his son (their young patriarch).
Thinking of this, they were not only relieved, but also secretly cursed themselves for being short-sighted (old fools).
He Qinghai thought to himself: If my son is trained by such a strong person, he will naturally not be trapped in the small area of Qingshan City in the future. What does the Shen family mean?
The two elders thought to themselves: The Shen family carrying shoes for the young patriarch is a compliment. Being able to be the eldest wife of the young clan is a blessing that has been cultivated for at least three lifetimes. They don't realize that the compliment just makes the He family suffer a little loss...
This is the Shen family's loss, and there may not be a chance to make up for it in the future.
The most important thing is the significance of He Yu He’s family!
Saving He Gu means saving the He family.
After thinking this through, He Qinghai and the two elders felt relaxed.
"Go?" He Qinghai said uncertainly.
"Go home?" the second elder replied.
"How about celebrating." The great elder confirmed.
He Gu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. These three old men were so good at changing their faces. In contrast, he seemed to be thinking too much.
Just when several people were about to return home, the door of Shen's house was opened amidst the long sound of "咿咿".
"The patriarch invites you to move to the guest hall."
The Shen family just let them in now. It would not be a good thing to use their butts. They just want to humiliate them again.
He Qinghai and the two elders all looked at He Gu, letting him make the decision.
Now they are no longer considering whether to accept the marriage, but rather whether to reject it.
He Gu Xiaoxiao never thought that he could so easily turn down the marriage he had planned back then.
Of course he would not miss such an opportunity, and sneered slightly: "Go, just settle this matter, and earn back some face along the way."
