Xining returned to the Gu Mansion. Although the old lady and the eldest lady were full of things to say, Zhang Zhong's elongated face made them swallow all their words. He was originally full of evil aura, coupled with the red Feiyu suit and the black Xiuchun knife.
Zhang Zhong was just dissatisfied with the marriage, and he didn't mean to be fierce.
The old lady and the eldest lady grabbed Xi Ning's hands from left to right and looked up and down, as if they wanted to see how many hairs were missing. Thanks to Xu Mian for taking such good care of Gu Wanxin.
Xining...
"Miss, miss!" Furong ran over, sobbing, but not daring to make too much of a fuss.
Oh, that's the girl who ate six meat buns. Although this was not possible, Zhang Zhong still looked at it. He was not fat, so why did he eat so much?
Furong felt fuzzy. She turned her head and saw Zhang Zhong looking at her with a gloomy look. She trembled with fright.
No one was invited to stay for dinner, so Zhang Zhong left naturally.
As soon as the front foot left, the old lady and the eldest lady couldn't bear it anymore, called the people to retreat, and began to ask about Xining's situation.
Xining said calmly: "The imperial edict granting marriage should arrive tonight. Please prepare your grandmother and mother to receive the edict. My daughter is very tired and will leave first." After saying this, he bowed and left.
Imperial decree, grant of marriage? The old lady and the eldest lady were stunned for a moment, looked at each other blankly, and then laughed.
It's great to have Xu Mian as my son-in-law, not bad!
Back in the room, Fu Rong helped her take a bath and change clothes, asking questions.
Xining got tired of asking and frowned: "Fu Rong, let me marry you to Jin Yiwei."
Fleur was so frightened that she immediately said, "No, Miss. I won't say anything anymore!"
Imperial edicts usually come at night, unless it is very important, and then try to wait until the whole family is together before announcing it. Just like confiscating a family and exterminating a clan, you have to gather as many people as possible.
Xining was lying on the imperial concubine's bamboo couch and sleeping lightly, thinking in her heart, should the task be completed?
Although she had been with Xu Mian for a while, she still couldn't understand Xu Mian's thoughts. With Xu Mian's profession and status, she should be arrested and tortured to extract what she wants to know.
I feel like everything is fine except that I look a little colder. And the way he smiles is pretty good-looking too.
Xining felt for a while, was this husband still satisfied? His heart was racing, hehe, it seemed he was quite satisfied. That's good! Otherwise, she would have to find another way to escape from the marriage, which would be very troublesome if she faked her death or went missing. If he disappears, he can only go to Nanyang or escape to the Xiongnu and Lingnan areas.
Gu Tingrui, who was lying on the bed recovering from his injuries, also got up and tidied up so that he could receive the imperial edict later.
Everyone was sitting in the lobby living room. Gu Tingrui was carried out on a stretcher and lay on the bamboo couch waiting.
Xining naturally went up to offer condolences. Just as he thought, Gu Tingrui only had a flesh wound, and he was extremely proud of being able to take the dragon stick.
"The emperor was thinking of Old Mrs. Gu, so he forcibly stopped him. In the entire court, there were only three people who could bear the imperial staff." Gu Tingrui lay on his stomach, not daring to move his body, and even bowed: "Your Majesty, your Majesty!"
Xi Ning... can't be saved, and his thoughts have changed beyond reason.
But think about it, if someone comes to trouble Gu Tingrui again in the future, all Gu Tingrui needs to say is, "I am not afraid of life and death. If you are so loyal, you can go to the emperor to argue with me." That would be enough to kill him instantly. Those who have received the dragon's stick, those who have strong qualifications, if you have the courage, go and remonstrate.
Xining sat there without speaking, just listening. They were all talking about Xu Mian and the prince's affairs. Half an hour later, the father-in-law in charge of the palace finally came to announce the decree.
The courtyard was filled with people kneeling down again. What surprised the Gu family was that not only was the marriage granted, but all the things that had been confiscated in the house were returned.
After receiving the order to thank her, the old lady's maid Musk held a folded banknote and stuffed it into her father-in-law's hand: "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."
"No need, this is a matter within the slave family!" The father-in-law refused without even closing his fingers. Another five taels of silver to send to the beggar. Ever since he became the chief chamberlain in the palace, only the Gu family could tell.
"Better than nothing, buy a cup of tea." Musk insisted.
The meat on the mosquito's legs is also meat. In addition, the Gu family and Jin Yiwei are in love, and Xu Yan Wang, who is still in deep trouble and is highly used, wants to buy this face.
The father-in-law in charge had no choice but to take it and touched it with his hand. Well, it was still five taels of silver. Go on, maybe one day I will be given money to King of Hell to clear it up.
After his father-in-law left, Gu Tingrui was helped onto the stretcher. He kept laughing all the way: "It seems that Xin'er has a future."
The old lady was supported by Musk and looked askance: "We are getting married next month, what do you think of Xin'er's dowry?"
Gu Tingrui said without thinking or thinking, "The dowry has been prepared a long time ago. I can use it when it is returned tomorrow."
The eldest lady sneered: "Among the things I came back this time, there are also items from the original two and three bedrooms. I heard that Xu Tongzhi's official residence has never been properly repaired, and many rooms are empty."
Gu Tingrui was stunned for a moment, but his mind was still able to turn around, and he immediately changed his words: "Originally, it was a reward from the emperor. It is up to the mother to decide on the marriage of her children."
The old lady and the eldest lady exchanged glances, and Xining knew that this time Gu Yuanxin was going to get married in style!
The next day, the items that had been confiscated were brought back one by one. Although there is a list, there are still many things missing.
But on the third day, the missing items were shipped over, or they were replaced according to the same quality as the original items. They could only be good, not inferior.
If you think about it, you will know that it was Xu Mian's handiwork. In this case, these things will be sent to the Xu family as dowry when they get married.
The emperor seemed to be more anxious than Xu Mian, and the wedding was scheduled for the beginning of autumn next month. We can only speed up!
When the eldest lady invited six embroiderers, they worked hard to make various female needlework. Some things need to be embroidered by a married woman, and she can only ask the embroiderer and maid to embroider them, and then let Gu Yuanxin touch up a few stitches.
It's a good thing that this is the case, otherwise, even if Xining could use the body master skill, this stitch would still annoy her to death.
Xu Mian came to propose marriage in person. Although the emperor granted the marriage, Xu Mian still followed the ritual of three matchmakers and six betrothals, bringing his matchmaker, royal guards and betrothal gifts to propose marriage.
Seeing Xu Mian coming over with live geese in his arms, and according to the rules, the food, rice, wine, cakes, cloth, etc. were kept in pairs, and the Gu family became more and more pleased with their son-in-law. It seems that Xu Mian's cold face is more handsome than the children of the aristocratic family.
Madam Gu really liked it more and more, so she decided to stay with Xu Mian for a meal. At this time, the two of them finally met.
The two looked at each other and said nothing. But at night, Zhang Zhong climbed over the wall and came in, bringing a letter from Xu Mian.
Xining opened it and looked at it. There was no signature on the letter, and it was written in extremely beautiful regular script: "A shallow lover doesn't know."
What's the meaning? Xining was in a daze.
Mo Ming: "Long-term lovesickness, long-lasting lovesickness. If you ask about the end of lovesickness, it will not be until we meet each other.
Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc. Who do you want to describe your lovesickness like? Lovers don’t know. "
""Sauvignon Blanc·Sauvignon Blanc" by Yan Jidao of the Song Dynasty is a letter telling you that he is thinking of you!"
