Gu Qiancheng stood in the center of the room, looking at the eldest master of the Gu family quietly, his eyes calm and without a trace of light, that look...
It’s not despair! It’s the peace of knowing everything, no longer expecting, and having no expectations!
Being looked at by Gu Qiancheng like this, the elder felt timid, but on his face he refused to give in. He tried his best to show his father's dignity and confront Gu Qiancheng.
The father and daughter seemed to be gazing calmly, but only they knew the struggle between them. Mr. Gu was anxious, but he was afraid that being too impatient would arouse Gu Qiancheng's suspicion, so he winked at the second lady and asked her to speak.
The second lady wanted to speak, but for a moment she didn't know what to say. After hesitating, Gu Qianmeng stepped forward and said, "Sister."
Three words interrupted the contest between Gu Qiancheng and his daughter. The eldest man of the Gu family breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Qiancheng looked back like a normal person, "What's the matter?"
Her expression was indifferent and she was not angry. Gu Qianmeng was also timid in her heart, but she could not retreat. This matter was related to her life's happiness, and she would fight for it no matter what.
"Sister, grandma wants to tell you a marriage." Gu Qianmeng tried hard to raise the corners of her lips to make herself look more festive, but with little success.
The second lady reacted at this time and answered with a smile: "No, we haven't congratulated Qiancheng yet. Qiancheng, the old lady loves you so much. She has been inquiring about young people of the right age. No, before
We’ll find a suitable candidate in two days.”
"Really?" Gu Qiancheng answered calmly. After knowing what the Gu family planned to do with her, Gu Qiancheng had no interest in staying any longer.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, ask your father, that man... tsk tsk tsk, it's really good. I can't find a more complete family than this one." The second lady said exaggeratedly, and Mrs. Gu also agreed.
One sentence: "Qiancheng, your second aunt didn't lie to you this time. The family your grandmother found for you is truly one of a kind. The family is extremely wealthy and has no shortage of anything. As soon as you marry into it, you will enjoy a blessed life."
"My parents-in-law are here, I have both children, and I have a concubine and a prostitute in the same garden. This is also a kind of completeness.
Mrs. Gu and the Second Madam deliberately talked mysteriously and covertly, trying to lure Gu Qiancheng to ask questions, but Gu Qiancheng refused without asking, "Such a good family, the old lady will leave it to other girls."
Well, my marriage doesn’t need to be decided by the old lady." The Gu family will find a good match for her? The sun is rising in the west.
"Qiancheng, the old lady can't make the final decision on matters of marriage or the fate of the parents, but the father can make the decision?" The eldest man of the Gu family adjusted for a long time, finally regained his composure and asked.
"Of course..." Gu Qiancheng was extremely grateful for his wisdom. Seeing his nominal biological father's face beaming with joy, Gu Qiancheng didn't wait for him to speak before he added, "It's a pity, father, you said it too late!"
"What...what do you mean?" The eldest man swallowed hard and almost rolled his eyes. Mrs. Gu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, she looked more like a daughter-in-law than a daughter-in-law.
Gu Qiancheng frowned in confusion. Her cheap father had been having a heated relationship with the concubine in the backyard, so why did he suddenly value Mrs. Gu again?
What methods did Mrs. Gu use?
The question in front of him still needs to be answered. Gu Qiancheng withdrew his eyes, lowered his eyes and said: "Father, the Holy Father promised me to make the decision on my marriage. The old man also knows about this. If father doesn't believe it, you can go
Ask the old man."
"How, how is it possible?" The elder shook his head in disbelief, "Why would the emperor interfere with your marriage?"
"I asked for it myself." I have been prepared to prevent you from cheating me.
"When did you ask for it?" The elder went through all the events of the past year in his mind and said in surprise: "It's a matter of Lingzhen Pavilion. You can clear the grievances of His Highness Qin and change the marriage independently."
The elder said it with certainty, but the reality is: "It's the concubine's illness. The concubine is seriously ill. I'll cure the concubine and let her get married on her own."
"Your Majesty is seriously ill? When did your Majesty become seriously ill?" The elder didn't remember it for a moment, but Mrs. Gu said something in his ear, and then the elder remembered it, but his face was as ugly as a palette, because...
Concubine Gu was pretending to be sick!
Gu Guifei pretended to be ill, and not only was she deceived by Lin Chujiu, but she also allowed Gu Qiancheng to get married independently. How could this make the elder not angry?
As parents, if their children really want to be disobedient, they can only fiddle with the marriage. Now that Gu Qiancheng has the emperor's will, they don't dare to force it anymore.
The eldest master and Mrs. Gu only felt angry, but the second master Gu's family felt as uncomfortable as if their own mother had died. Gu Qianmeng almost lost control and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Mrs. Gu's reaction was quick, and she held her hand, forcing a smile on her face.
Said: "Qiancheng, my family didn't know that you were able to decide your own marriage before. Your grandmother has already given you a date. You see..."
Before the second lady finished speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Qiancheng: "I don't know how to go and see it. Second aunt doesn't need to tell me, and don't bully me. I just arrived in the capital and don't know anything. The so-called love for me is everything."
You know what the marriage is all about, and it is not difficult for me to know."
I really don’t know how the Gu family has developed their brains. This kind of thing can’t be kept secret for a lifetime. What’s the point of trying to trick her into believing it first? She’s not a young lady who can’t get out of the family.
"Qian, Qiancheng, things are not what you think."
"Second uncle, what did I think about?"
Second Master Gu felt guilty. When Gu Qiancheng glared at him, he immediately became cowardly and did not dare to speak again.
Gu Qiancheng glanced coldly at everyone present, avoiding wherever his eyes went, "It seems that you also know that you are in the wrong."
"Sister, don't be angry." Gu Qianmeng pushed the second lady away, weakly took two steps forward, and knelt on the ground with a thud, "Sister, this matter has nothing to do with uncle and father, it is all my fault.
It’s because I don’t want to get married. Big sister, please save me, please save me, okay? I’ll repay you by being a cow and a mother in the next life.”
Gu Qiancheng had avoided it early and ignored Gu Qianmeng. No matter what the Gu family did, she would not be angry now because...
The Gu family should not try to take any advantage from her. The Gu family's use of her now is to put on a show for the world to see. At most, she can take care of Cheng Huan and Cheng Yi.
"Father, I won't care about the Gu family's affairs. Likewise, if something happens to me, I won't ask my father to help me." Gu Qiancheng bowed his head to the end and walked out without any hesitation.
"Big sister, big sister, please don't leave, please save me. You can't be so cruel..." Gu Qianmeng cried from behind, but Gu Qiancheng would no longer be soft-hearted.
The people in this family have worn away her feelings and guilt bit by bit. She no longer has any expectations for this family, so she will not be hurt.
Walking out of the old lady's yard, looking at the familiar but unfamiliar scenery in front of him, Gu Qiancheng laughed to himself, took out the four golden beads in his arms, took a look at them, and put them back.
In the end, it was still not sent out!
