Chapter 111: Announcing the Marriage Contract
What needs to be shown on the surface is hard power, but what is secretly shown is soft power.
They had to let the entire gambling stone world know that their Xie family had not yet reached the point where Jiang Lang was at the end of his talent.
Those who want to see their Xie family's jokes can rest early.
After matching all the jewelry made of those superb jade, Gu Xiang and Zhang Yue began, wondering what Zhang Yue was going to wear at night, tonight the people with heads and faces in the magic capital and city A would come, so at the dinner, they couldn't be the slightest different.
After the hairstyle and makeup were ready, it was only half an hour before the dinner began, and just as Gu Xiang and Zhang Yue were waiting for the dinner party to start, they saw Uncle Cai walking calmly towards him.
"Little Miss, the master has something to talk about when he looks for you, you can go quickly, Miss Zhang, I'll entertain her."
Hearing Uncle Cai say this, Gu Xiang and Zhang Yue said hello, and hurriedly walked towards Xie Lao's room.
After knocking on the door for a long time, he didn't hear his grandfather's voice calling him in, and after Gu Xiang opened his grandfather's door with some caution, he saw his grandfather sitting on the dark red bed, not knowing what he was looking at intently.
After gently closing the door, Gu Xiang slowly walked in the direction where his grandfather was.
Before Gu Xiang walked to his grandfather's side? I heard my grandfather turn his back to her and said to her, "Look at how young you were at that time, I can't believe that you have grown so big in the blink of an eye." ”
Seeing that his grandfather had already known about his arrival, Gu Xiang didn't pretend to be an invisible person anymore. Instead, he said generously, "But isn't it?" When I look at the photos I took when I was a kid now, I feel incredible. Grandpa, what is the matter with you coming to me? Did you come to me just to miss my childhood? ”
Hearing Gu Xiang say this, Xie Lao smiled, "Of course it's not to miss your childhood, my lovely granddaughter has now become a big girl, and my grandfather's health is getting worse and worse than before." Maybe one day I will leave you behind, and that's not for sure. ”
I heard my grandfather say that. Although Gu Xiang knew this fact, he still didn't want his grandfather to say this, "Grandpa, what are you talking about?" You'll live at least another fifty years. You've been cursing yourself like that. Isn't it fun? ”
Seeing that Gu Xiang was already a little angry. Xie Lao hurriedly said with forgiveness, "Okay, okay, grandpa won't say that in the future." My grandfather will live well, and my grandfather will see the birth of my great-grandson in the future? Isn't that what makes you happy? ”
Hearing his grandfather say this, Gu Xiang's face changed, and when he looked at the photos in his grandfather's hand, Gu Xiang really felt a little like a world away, how long had it been since he had seen the photos of himself when he was a child.
It's been more than ten years, and it really feels like a long time ago.
Just when Gu Xiang was reminiscing about the past, he heard his grandfather say to himself very strictly, "I came to you today, I do have something important to tell you, in fact, you have a marriage contract with the Shen family, speaking of which, this marriage contract was made by me and Lao Shen back then, you also know that it is not easy for a person like us to find a person who is the right person, besides, Tianjue's child is something I have seen since I was a child, character, personality or something, that is really not said, So I'm going to announce it at my birthday party today, and that's what I want. ”
Hearing her grandfather say this, Gu Xiangzhi was really not too surprised, because her grandfather had also mentioned this matter to her in her previous life, but at that time, because she was concerned about that cheap man Wu Jun, she asked her grandfather to push the marriage contract.
I remember that my grandfather didn't understand it very much at that time, and later forced me to die, so that my grandfather was relieved.
Thinking about it now, I was really stupid at that time, and I actually returned the marriage contract that my grandfather had carefully prepared for me for a man like that, thinking that I was really ignorant back then.
Since her grandfather thinks that Shen Tianjue is a good match, Gu Xiang will not object, her greatest wish to live a new life is to be able to make her grandfather's affairs go smoothly and no longer have to worry about her future.
"Grandpa, I have no opinion, since you think Shen Tianjue is a good person, then I will marry, I still believe in your vision."
Seeing that Gu Xiang agreed to his mention so lightly, Xie Lao also felt a little incredible, he thought Gu Xiang would disagree?
But now that his granddaughter has relented, he has to hurry up to deal with this matter, he still understands the truth of long dreams at night, besides, the current child has an idea in a few minutes, if Gu Xiang suddenly doesn't want to end it again, it will not only be a shame for their Xie family.
After talking about this matter with his grandfather, Gu Xiang hurried to prepare for the dinner, and when he returned to the room, Gu Xiang had been a little absent-minded.
In his previous life, his grandfather did let him agree to the marriage contract of the Shen family, but at that time, because he had someone in his heart, he was very unconcerned about this matter, and he didn't even know who he was going to marry at that time, and he was only interested in dissolving the marriage contract at that time.
Now that I think about it, I was really a little more at that time, thinking that I was good, then everyone would be fine, in fact, life is not so simple.
It's good to marry Shen Tianjue, although he is a little paralyzed, but at least he is not a bad person, plus there are still two treasures, I believe that his life will not be so monotonous in the future.
Gu Xiang has lived almost two lives in her previous life, and she only now understands a truth, if a man is willing to be good to animals, then his character is at least not bad.
Before he could sit on his ass when he returned to the room, he was beckoned by Uncle Cai to go outside to greet the guests.
Gu Xiang's dress today is not so eye-catching, but it is also very beautiful, basically when she meets her lady and their daughter, she will ask where Gu Xiang bought these jewelry from her.
For today's appearance, Xie Lao also made a lot of money, and almost half of the relatively rare jade stones that Gu Xiang opened in City A made jewelry for Gu Xiang.
Let's just say that Gu Xiang wore the cat-shaped gold Xiangyu pendant around his neck today, the jade is made of imperial jade, but the gold is purified from white gold specially transported from Myanmar and of quite high purity.
The emerald green and white white gold made Gu Xiangxian more and more extravagant.
As time progressed, the banquet finally began.
The first item was the speech of the host of the conference, and when he saw the host on the stage smiling and saying words of blessing, Gu Xiang thought of his grandfather's birthday in his previous life.
That day, his expression was really bad, not only did he not have a Xie family's face, but he also quarreled with his grandfather on the spot because of Wu Jun's matter, and now in retrospect, it seems that something was wrong with the qiē that day.
First, Gu Lin complained in front of him about how his grandfather treated Gu Changde and Song Lingcui's couple, and then it was Wu Jun on the phone, looking forward to living a good time together in the future.
At that time, I was blinded by these, thinking that my grandfather was blocking me from finding happiness, but now I think about it, I am really a fool, if my brain is bright, I would have discovered that something was wrong here, but what about myself at that time? Instead of thinking seriously about the doorway, he went directly to quarrel with his grandfather.
Just when Gu Xiang recalled some of the previous things, he heard the host say with a smile, "Next, I will ask our granddaughter Xie Lao to give our beloved Xie Lao a birthday gift she prepared for Xie Lao." ”
Hearing the host say this, Gu Xiang walked onto the stage with great grace, and the gift had been prepared a long time ago, so Gu Xiang walked on the stage very calmly.
After forking the gift on the spot, everyone was shocked when they saw the appearance of the gift, especially Xie Lao, he really didn't expect that the gift given to him by Gu Xiang would be such a strange thing.
This also shows how much Gu Xiang has worked preparing gifts for him.
Thinking of this, Xie Lao's eyes moistened, how many years since he beat his daughter away, because he knew that he still had a home to support, and a young granddaughter who needed to take shelter.
So I never dared to be weak, now I finally have a point, my granddaughter has grown up, a lot of things, I should indeed hand it over to her, this child's heart did not follow her mother, but with herself, so it's okay, as the heir of the Xie family, you have to be ruthless, if you really follow Shuting, then the Xie family may really have no hope.
Seeing that his grandfather was excited and didn't speak for a long time, Gu Xiang hurriedly said to him, "Grandpa, I know you are very excited, but everyone is watching?" We can't let everyone wait for us! ”
Hearing Gu Xiang say this, Xie Lao wiped away his tears, and then picked up the microphone and said to the guests under the stage, "Thank you very much today, everyone can take time out of your busy schedule to attend my old man's birthday party, in fact, if it is according to my meaning, this year's birthday banquet will not be held, but Ah Xiang, this child, has not followed, saying that I am sixty-sixth birthday this year, if I don't do it, I can't talk about it, I can't twist her, so I had to hold this birthday party, since everyone is here, I can't let everyone come in vain, right? Today I have to solemnly announce one thing, come, come, Heaven, you also come up. ”
Hearing what Old Man Xie said, Standing with Old Man Shen Tianjue, Shen Tianjue walked on the stage calmly.
"Okay, since Tianjue is also here, then I will say that my granddaughter Gu Xiang and grandson-in-law Shen Tianjue will hold an engagement ceremony on the seventh day of the first month of next month, and when the time comes, I hope everyone can come to enjoy their faces. Thank you so much again for coming to my birthday dinner. (To be continued......)
