Chapter 175: Marriage Proposal

As soon as he entered the carriage, Gu Zhirong knew what a truly luxurious carriage was. Inside the carriage, the earth dragon burned vigorously. Today's Jiangdong weather is early winter, the cold wind outside, but the car is warm, there are two big red colored cloud dragons on the couch to hold the backrest pillow, and there is also a fishing and chiseling gold and copper hand stove on the side, it seems that the young master of Baojian Hall is really thoughtful.

Lu Shui smiled and said: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that this young master is really careful, there is everything here, it's really good." ”

Mingyue frowned and said in a low voice: "Miss, this young master will not have any other purpose for spending so much time on Miss, right?"

Gu Zhirong smiled: "What purpose can it be, Baojiantang has great powers, don't you know that I already have a marriage contract? If this is the case, then it is not the world-famous Baojiantang." ”

The carriage was really smooth, there was no bump in the road, and the people sat in it, and it was warm and very comfortable, and even the green water was about to fall asleep.

After a while, he arrived at the door of Gu Zhirong's distant cousin's house.

Speaking of this distant cousin, he is not a businessman, but a celebrity Confucian, I heard that he had a certain reputation when he was in the capital before, and later he was not used to some phenomena at that time, so he moved his family out of the capital and went to Jiangzhou in a fit of anger, which has been going for decades, Gu Zhirong's mother, that is, Su Qianqian, who was released with her husband back then, also visited him once or twice occasionally. Later, he entered the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, and he never went there again until he died.

Even though he hadn't been in touch for many years, he heard at first glance that this niece was going to Jiangzhou to visit him. Gu Zhirong's uncle was still very happy, and personally took his wife and son to greet him at the door.

Gu Zhirong raised his eyes and looked. Before the meeting, he was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a wide-sleeved gown, full of heaven, with a white and slender face, neat beard, looking gentle and graceful, but his eyes were like a good look.

Next to him. Standing stood a middle-aged woman of his age, with her hair in a high bun and dressed in plain clothes. But he is kind and kind, and he is very kind.

Then came a man who looked like a son, and his eyebrows were very similar to those of a middle-aged man, although his face was handsome. But it's more about coldness. With a sword hanging from his waist, he must be a martial arts practitioner.

Gu Zhirong stepped forward to salute, and the middle-aged man helped him up, and said with a smile: "My niece has come all the way, so I don't have to be formal." Then he asked Gu Zhirong: "This is your uncle, this is your cousin, called Su Yu." ”

Gu Zhirong saluted the two of them again, and then. Let's walk into the hall together.

Enter the hall and sit separately. The self-owned maid came up with tea, and then retreated. As Gu Zhirong expected, her distant uncle was very stylish, and the furnishings in the house were different from others, the most peculiar of which was the sand antelope horn in the desert, which was actually placed in all corners, all shapes, presumably often going to the desert area.

Gu Zhirong's eyes narrowed slightly, and then quickly moved away.

Gu Zhirong's distant cousin is called Su Zhe, and his wife Yan. Yan was very enthusiastic, and asked Gu Zhirong about his current situation, so he asked Gu Zhirong to accompany him to freshen up, and then let people set the meal.

After eating, the family sat in the hall to talk, Gu Zhirong saw that the words were almost finished, and he was about to say what he wanted to entrust, at this time, he heard a rush of footsteps outside, and a little servant trotted in all the way, and said: "Master, there is a son outside, who reported that he is the eldest son of the Lu Mansion and asks to see the master." ”

"Master Lu?" Gu Zhirong was taken aback, it wouldn't be

"Master Lu, that Lu Mansion?" Su Zhe was also puzzled. He has been in Jiangzhou for many years, and he has never heard of a local person with the surname Lu, let alone a prince of Lu.

The little servant said: "Master, the son outside reported to his family, saying that he was the eldest son of the Hou Mansion in Ning'an, the capital. ”

Gu Zhirong couldn't sit still anymore. There will never be a second Ning'an Hou Mansion in the capital, that is to say, her eldest son of Lu has arrived in Jiangzhou?

Green Water and Mingyue also looked stunned.

Su Zhe pondered for a moment, then stroked his beard and said, "Although I don't recognize him, but the person who came is a guest, maybe there is really something, please invite him in." ”

Yan pulled Gu Zhirong to hide behind the screen, Gu Zhirong shook his head and said: "Uncle, I want to see this person, if it is really the person in my heart, then he must have something to do with me when he comes this time." ”

Yan was a little dazed, but Su Zhe looked clear, and said to Yan with a smile: "Since my niece said so, she is an old man, so there is no need to be formal, let's see you." ”

The little guy went out and soon welcomed a young man in. This person is wearing a blue wide-sleeved straight-lined brocade robe, with sword eyebrows, who else can there be if it is not the eldest prince of Lu?

Gu Zhirong watched him walk in steadily, and suddenly understood where he came from, and for a while, his heart was surging, and there were faint tears staining his eyelashes. And the bright moon and green water on the side were already frozen at the moment when the eldest prince of Lu came in.

Didn't the eldest prince of Lu stay in the capital to study, how did he come to this desolate border? And he didn't reveal any news in advance?

Could it be that he missed Miss too much, so he chased after him?

But why did you chase it to your uncle's house?

Grand Master Lu came to the hall and stood still, raised his eyes and looked at Gu Zhirong, smiled slightly, then turned to Su Zhe, saluted and said, "Master Su, I am suddenly visiting in the Tang Dynasty, I hope Master Su will forgive me." ”

Su Zhe motioned for him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Master Lu, you said that it was abrupt, but it was really abrupt." It's just that the old man has been away from Beijing for decades and has no contact with Beijing, why did Lu Gongzi suddenly remember to visit the old man?"

Lu Fangting smiled slightly, and did not hide it: "Master Su, I really have something to ask Master Su for my visit." ”

Then, he glanced at Gu Zhirong next to him, and then looked at Su Zhe with a smile: "I have traveled thousands of miles this time, and I came here by trekking through mountains and rivers, not for anything else, but for the sake of proposing." ”

Gu Zhirong's eyes widened instantly, although this was all in her prediction, but when it came out of his mouth, she was still surprised.

Su Zhe said "oh": "Propose marriage?" He looked sideways and said, "Mr. Lu is not mistaken, Humble Jing only gave birth to a son to the old man, and has no daughter, since Mr. Lu came to propose, the old man has no daughter for you." He laughed.

Gu Zhirong thought to himself, this uncle is really good at pretending. However, it can also be seen from this that this uncle is still thoughtful, and he is bent on planning for himself, and he has to ask the eldest prince to say that he must marry him.

Lu Fangting is such a smart person, how could he not understand what Su Zhe meant, he smiled, walked up to Gu Zhirong, made a salute, and then said to Su Zhe: "Master Su, it is this young lady who is going to marry next." ”

After that, he looked at Gu Zhirong and smiled.

Lu Shui was so happy that he almost jumped up, took Mingyue's hand and whispered: "Master Lu really really likes our young lady, no, they all chased him to Jiangzhou to propose marriage." ”

At this time, Su Zhe said in a deep voice: "This son, since he came to my house to propose marriage, he will not be empty-handed, and he even forgot to bring the dowry, right?" (to be continued......)
