Chapter Seventy-Two: Giving Marriage

Coughing lightly twice, Li Xiaonuan straightened up, looked at Gu Yunshan with a smile and said:

"People say that the eldest sister is like a mother, and if this is the case, the eldest sister thinks that she is going to get married, and she doesn't know how much she is reluctant to let go."

Gu Yunshan's eyes turned red, Li Xiaonuan moved forward, took Gu Yunshan's hand, sighed softly, and then said:

"The eldest sister is sad and reluctant, the ancestor, Mrs., the second sister and Gu Xiao still don't know how to be sad and reluctant, yesterday Gu Xiao still said to the ancestor with red eyes, worried that the eldest sister would be angry at her mother-in-law's house, and said that she would support the ancient family portal well in the future, so as not to let the eldest sister and the second sister go to the in-law's house because there is no one in their mother's house."

Li Xiaonuan laughed, didn't wait for Gu Yunshan to speak, and then said:

"The old ancestor was so moved that she couldn't laugh, saying that she didn't have her mother's family, and she didn't see what anger she suffered in the Gu family?"

Gu Yunshan was stunned, and laughed out loud,

"The eldest sister is worried about the family, but the family is worried about the eldest sister, the eldest sister just rest assured, there are ancestors and wives in the family, the ancestors do not have a mother's family, and the old family with a mother's family will only get better day by day, but the eldest sister married into the Jin family, and there is a strange thing, I don't know how many troubles there are, the big sister is careful about everything, the mother-in-law's family is definitely different from her mother's family."

Gu Yunshan smiled and nodded,

"Do you still want to ask this little girl? That's what you said, not to mention the Runan Palace, it's the Zhenning Marquis Mansion, and not everyone can underestimate it."

Li Xiaonuan followed Gu Yunshan's words with a smile, and slowly led the topic away, and the two said a few more words, Li Xiaonuan called Pearl in, and even persuaded Gu Yunshan to go back to rest.

At the right time the next day, Li Xiaonuan was called up by the end of winter, hurriedly washed up, and rushed to the Rose Courtyard.

The Rose Courtyard was already brightly lit, Gu Yunhuan was already sitting in the east chamber, slowly drinking a bowl of lotus seed tea, when he saw Li Xiaonuan coming in, he hurriedly put down the bowl and beckoned Li Xiaonuan to sit on the couch.

"You got up and rushed over, didn't you? Do you eat lotus seed tea or red date soup? ”

"Let's just take lotus seed tea."

Li Xiaonuan responded with a smile, turned his head to find Gu Yunshan,

"Where's the big sister?"

"The eldest sister is bathing in it, Mama Zhou invited a few mothers-in-law from the capital who were waiting for the wedding soup, saying that she was going to wash for more than an hour, and it didn't take long to go in, let's wait slowly."

Li Xiaonuan nodded, took off her shoes, and sat on the couch opposite Gu Yunhuan, the little girl brought in a bowl of hot lotus seed tea, Li Xiaonuan took it and drank it slowly, gossiping with Gu Yunhuan.

Just after Maozheng, Mrs. Zhou helped Mrs. Li into the Rose Courtyard, Li Xiaonuan and Gu Yunhuan hurriedly greeted them, took Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li in, sat on the couch in the east wing, and served tea.

"Go and see, is the eldest lady bathed?"

Mrs. Li smiled and instructed Cuilian, Cuilian bent her knees and agreed, and went into the clean room in the back with a smile.

"Alright, I'm getting dressed."

While talking, Gu Yunshan, who seemed to be much brighter than usual, was wearing a lined white silk dress, her hair was loosely curled, surrounded by pearls and other girls and a few strange women, and turned into the east chamber.

Mrs. Zhou looked at Gu Yunshan with tears in her eyes, looked at Gu Yunshan with a smile on her face, opened her mouth, but couldn't speak, Mrs. Li pulled Mrs. Zhou to sit on the couch, patted her hand gently, and comforted her gently,

"You see, Yun Shan has grown up and got married, how good"

Mrs. Zhou nodded vigorously, but tears fell in a puff, Gu Yun hurriedly wiped her mother's tears with a handkerchief, Mrs. Zhou choked and said:

"I'm happy, happy."

Mrs. Li's eyes also turned red, gently patted Mrs. Zhou's hand, turned her head to look at Gu Yunshan, who was standing in front of the couch with tears in her eyes, and said with a smile:

"Just now the chief steward of the Jin family came to report, the groom's big boat, it will be half an hour later, I have already let Xiao Er welcome it, you, don't be busy shedding tears, hurry up and dress up, this is to Taizhou, but it will take some time, and you can't miss the auspicious time."

Pearl and a few mothers-in-law hurriedly bent their knees to agree, Pearl took half a step forward, helped Gu Yunshan to sit in front of the dresser in the middle of the room, a mother-in-law took a few steps forward, and dignified Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhou bent their knees to salute, before sitting on the stool opposite Gu Yunshan, took the powder box, evenly pounced on Gu Yunshan's face, twisted the red line in the little girl's tray, bit the middle with her teeth, and put one end in each hand, and twisted Gu Yunshan's face skillfully and rhythmically.

After a moment's effort, the white ** on Gu Yunshan's face and the fine hairs faded cleanly, and her skin was slightly flushed, as if she was instantly shy.

The mother-in-law commanded the little girl, cleaned Gu Yunshan's face with warm water, took a bowl of fresh egg whites, and wiped it evenly on Gu Yunshan's face with her fingers.

The egg whites dried up little by little, Gu Yunshan's face was tense and she sat in front of the mirror, and the two mothers-in-law stood behind Gu Yunshan, one for the main and the other for the auxiliary, spreading Gu Yunshan's hair, singing a happy song loudly, while carefully running her hair, and curling up a complicated and abnormal bun.

Mama Zhou's forehead was oozing with sweat, and when she hurriedly came in to report "The groom has arrived", Gu Yunshan was also dressed up, standing with her hands raised, surrounded by several mothers-in-law wearing dresses.

Li Xiaonuan looked curiously and sadly at Gu Yunshan, who was gradually becoming more festive, she was only seventeen years old this year, and she was still a child, but next year, perhaps, she would have a child, or a few years later to have a child, alas, she was wrong again, Amitabha, next year's now, next year's now, bless Gu Yunshan's next year's now, give birth to a son

Although the Gu family is low-key, almost no one knows about the marriage of the eldest lady of the Gu family, and repeatedly refuses to come to congratulate the relatives and friends, but the well-informed relatives and old friends, after sending the box gift, some are considerate of the Gu family and no longer come to the door to get married, but some still rushed over enthusiastically.

Mrs. Zhou reluctantly moved out of the Rose Courtyard and went out to entertain the ladies who came to the door to get married.

After a while, Gu Yunshan dressed up and cleaned up, jeweled, standing in front of Mrs. Li, holding back her tears, bending her knees upright, Mrs. Li tilted her head slightly, endured her tears, pulled Gu Yunshan, and slowly explained:

"You remember, marrying is a return, not going, in the future, the Jin family is your home, everything is the husband's family first, the husband is the most important, you must be filial to the elders, obey the husband, don't remember the family."

Gu Yunshan nodded her head heavily, tears slid down all of a sudden, and the middle-aged **** who followed next to her wiped away Gu Yunshan's tears with a handkerchief very skillfully, opened the powder box, and carefully looked at where Gu Yunshan's face needed to be touched-up, Li Xiaonuan laughed lightly, pushed Gu Yunhuan and exclaimed:

"I'm wondering what this bride is for, it turns out that it's specially used to wipe tears and touch up makeup."

Gu Yunhuan was in tears, listening to Li Xiaonuan's exclamation, she laughed out loud, Gu Yunshan pouted, glanced at Li Xiaonuan, and was slightly embarrassed, Mrs. Li also laughed, helped Cuilian to get off the bed, took Gu Yunshan's hand, and everyone followed, walking to the front yard together.

In the hustle and bustle, Gu Yunshan got on the Jin family's carved beams and painted boat, which was so big that it could only be slowly poured out of the Gufu wharf, and gradually drifted away in the hazy eyes of Mrs. Zhou.

Gu Xiao stood on the dock, looking at the joy boat from a distance in a daze, Li Xiaonuan thought about it, quietly rubbed to Gu Xiao's side, and said in a low voice:

"You can help Madame go back."

Gu Xiao came to his senses, nodded hurriedly, turned around and walked to Mrs. Zhou's side, and helped her walk back.

Gu Xiao and Gu Yunhuan accompanied Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhou to send off their relatives and friends, and sent Mrs. Li back to Ruixuan Hall to rest before going back.

Mrs. Zhou helped Gu Xiao back to Chengxin Courtyard and sat on the couch in the east wing, Mrs. Zhou burst into tears sadly, Gu Xiao sat on the edge of the couch sideways, looked at Mrs. Zhou worriedly and comforted:

"Mother rest assured, the eldest brother-in-law will definitely treat the eldest sister well."

Mrs. Zhou stretched out her hand to grab Gu Xiao, gently stroked his cheek, sighed, and said in a low voice:

"If your father is still alive, how happy you should be to watch Yun Shan get married, if your father is still here, Yun Shan...... Why is it so cold and uneasy to marry? Home...... Why don't you dare to post even half a post? ”

Gu Xiao was stunned, muttering and not knowing what to say, Mrs. Zhou waved her hand to rebuke the maid standing in the house, hugged Gu Xiao, and gradually cried,

Yun Shan was so aggrieved that she married the Jin family...... If the Jin family is in the capital, such a family, such a person will pity my Yunshan."

Mrs. Zhou suppressed her crying, Gu Xiao wiped her tears for Mrs. Zhou with her sleeve, and also burst into tears.

"Mother, Mother"

Mrs. Zhou cried for a while, then slowly stopped her grief, looked at Gu Xiao with red eyes and said:

"Xiao'er, you have to fight for your mother, your father was three yuan and the first, and he became famous in one fell swoop, you are his only blood and blood, the tiger father has no dog, even if you can't be three yuan and the first, you have to give your mother a champion and come back, and fight for your mother to get back this breath"

Gu Xiao nodded heavily,

"Mother rest assured, I will study hard, come back with a top score, and fight for my mother"

Mrs. Zhou sighed for a long time, hugged Gu Xiao, and burst into tears again,

"Your father's ...... Not to mention him, let's return to such a countryside from the capital, at the beginning, our Zhou family and our ancient family were in the capital, how glorious and prosperous Xiao Er, Xiao Er, the Gu family depends on you, my mother is counting on you, you have to fight for our mansion in the capital, we have to go back sooner or later."

Gu Xiao kept nodding, Mrs. Zhou lowered her head, stared at Gu Xiao and said:

"Xiao'er, you have to pay attention to those paintings, those useless things, just throw them away, your father was thirteen years old, you are twelve years old this year, next year, you will give your mother a test to solve the yuan back"
