Chapter 382: Family Reunion
It's good now, and some of them are lively.
The neighbors around Gu's house are waiting to see the excitement.
This hiring itself is a laborious matter, the Zhu family has just sent so much money and cloth to the Gu family, why do they have to send it again?
I've never heard of it.
Those whose families can afford to give a dowry are already rich.
It is very difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, and ordinary people can't even get an ordinary dowry money.
Otherwise, why are so many people on the street collecting debts?
When the Gu family heard the news, they also blew up.
Those cloth ploughing oxen, as well as gold and silver jewelry, won't they be given over again?
That's a lot.
Gu Zizhong discussed with his mother: "Mother, I am the one to be married, and it is not easy to go out at this time." You move your legs and feet, let's go to Zhufu. ”
Gu's mother also talked about what her daughter had done two days ago: "Why don't you go out well, you can take advantage of the effort to buy vegetables and sneak to meet the eldest son of the Zhu family......"
Gu Zizhong immediately interrupted his mother's words, took his mother's arm and shook it gently, and said coquettishly: "How far ago was that?"
Gu Mu cleared her throat and said with a straight face: "Two days ago." ”
Gu Zi weighed down his voice, and at the same time lengthened his tone, said "um", and then said good words: "Didn't Fengming buy all the vegetables for me yesterday? Yangzhou City is slow to deliver vegetables to us, and I can't help it. ”
Gu's mother also pretended to be angry, just wanting to say angry things to her daughter.
Looking at her daughter's sincere appearance, Gu's mother couldn't help but smile.
She smiled, and the wrinkles on her face cracked.
Gu Zizhong reached out and stroked his mother's forehead, and said, "Mother has been overworking for family affairs recently. Zizhong, so let Feng Ming go and buy a good rouge gouache for his mother to wipe it off. ”
Gu's mother laughed out loud and smiled: "Look at you like that." I know what is going on in your heart. Aren't you just afraid that Zhu Shizi will give too many gifts, and it will be bad if the family loses money again, right?"
Gu Zizhong was guessed by his mother, although he was a little embarrassed, but this intention should still be expressed: "This is the matter." How much money does Prince Zhu have for a year? People have given a lot of money to our family at this time, and they still give it away?"
Gu Mu patted the table lightly and said, "This is what the Zhu family meant, not what I meant." What are you complaining about with me?"
Gu Zizhong wanted to say more, but her mother stretched out her hand to stop her: "Don't tell me, your father will come back today." When he returns, let him decide what to do. ”
That's right, what Zhu Shizi said two days ago was that his father would come back within three days.
Two days ago, counting today, that's exactly three days.
Gu Zizhong forgot about this matter.
Gu's mother smiled happily at her daughter: "Okay, you don't have to worry, the ideas you say are also the thoughts of the mother." Why am I so embarrassed to ask people for that money again?"
Gu Zizhong didn't react, he didn't know that his mother's turn was too big, and the joy in the depths of Gu Zizhong's heart was suddenly stimulated.
She seemed to be in ecstasy, and she had been half-crouching on the ground in a begging position, but now she jumped up, as if she was about to go to the roof.
Gu's mother hadn't seen her daughter so lively and happy for a long time, so she naturally followed her daughter's happiness.
As soon as Gu's mother said this, Gu Wangye arrived in the afternoon.
I heard that there is also Princess Heshuo, the sister of Gu Wangye, who also came back.
The Gu family was very excited and wanted to go out of the city to greet them in person.
Sure enough, by the end of the afternoon, it was almost dark.
Gu Wangye's carriage came slowly.
When I went, I was ready to go, after all, I was escorting 100,000 taels of silver.
Now it's back, and it's light.
Gu Wangye's carriage stopped in front of the Gu family.
Gu Zi rushed over and went to the carriage to see his father.
Gu Wang Ye lifted the light curtain, and his face was a little more vicissitudes.
In the past few days, I have been running back and forth in the capital, and this person has not been able to go through vicissitudes of life?
Gu Zizhong immediately shushed his father and asked for warmth.
Gu Wang Ye smiled happily, he was already extremely happy to see his family.
At this time, Lord Lin rushed out from the side and stood behind Gu Zizhong, waiting for Gu Wang Ye to notice him.
Sure enough, as soon as Lord Lin came over, Gu Wangye saw him at once.
Lord Lin immediately saluted and said, "Lin has been looking forward to it, and the prince has finally returned." ”
Gu Wangye's tone was a little heavy: "Brother Lin, I will handle your affairs for you." If the emperor hadn't been in a hurry to use the silver this time, he wouldn't have spared you. ”
Lord Lin thanked him again and again.
Now the people have arrived, too.
Everyone is ready to go home.
Gu Wang Ye said: "Wait." Purple heavy, dog ......"
Gu Shizi couldn't help blushing when he heard his father call him by his nickname, and walked over.
Gu Wang Ye said: "I will give you a look at your relatives." ”
From the carriage, the face of a woman appeared.
The woman's face was a little haggard, but under the rouge gouache, she still showed grace.
It looked like the woman was in her thirties, nearly forty.
She should be the princess Heshuo that her mother said, right?
is his father's sister, Gu Zizhong and Gu Shizi's aunt.
The two of them were very polite and called "aunt".
The woman was excited.
Gu Wang Ye said: "Lord Lin, my family has just been reunited, so I don't care about other things. What business do you and I have, how about we talk about it tomorrow?"
Lord Lin thanked him and left quickly.
The Gu family returned to the Gu Mansion in a mighty way.
At this moment, it was already dark, and the evening time in winter was very short.
As soon as they arrived at home, everyone from the Gu family crowded into Gu Wangye's room.
The stove was burned, and the door was tightly closed.
Gu Shizi pulled Li Nanyu over as well.
The family is at the table.
The kitchen was busy.
Gu Wang Ye said: "This is my sister, and now she is the beloved wife of General Zhenning of the frontier." After many years of separation, we meet today, and everyone knows each other. ”
Gu Zizhong took the initiative to say: "My aunt came from afar, I have worked hard for you." After dinner, my brother and I went to boil water for your feet. ”
Gu Shizi was stunned for a moment, why did he still get involved?
The woman burst into tears and said, "It's good that Zizhong still remembers me." I haven't come home to see it for so many years. ”
Gu Wang Ye was a little impatient: "Oh, aren't you coming back?
When the elder brother says two words to the younger sister, it is also due.
The woman immediately stopped talking.
Gu Wangye said: "She is Princess Heshuo, but she is also a member of the Zhu family." You can just call her Zhu in the future. ”
