The next day, at the gate of Gu's house.

High in front of the door hangs a large red lantern with no candlelight, and under the lantern is a man who carefully carries the goods.

It turned out that the Gu family had prepared the dowry early in the morning, and the jewelry in two large red lacquer boxes was enough to buy an entire street of shops, which was enough to see how much the Gu family attached importance to the long road.

"You all be careful with me."

The deep voice was getting closer and closer to them, it was Master Gu who was coming.

The subordinates said in unison, "Yes, sir!" ”

The horses of the carriage of the fiery red sedan chair were tied with red ribbons around their necks, and when they walked in, they saw that it was a red hydrangea, and the battle of proposing marriage was even more high-profile than that of ordinary people!

Old Master Gu's serious expression instantly faded towards Mrs. Gu, and he smiled and said, "Madam, you take Chu Shi into the carriage first, and I'll keep an eye on it." ”

Mrs. Gu put her hands in front of her abdomen, nodded, and smiled slightly.

She said softly, "Okay, come, Shi'er, go up, be careful." ”

As she spoke, she also beckoned to Gu Chushi.

"My son understands."

Gu Chushi walked over, he held his robe in one hand, and jumped up with a sedan chair in the other, while Mrs. Gu stepped on the bench.

Master Gu held the prepared red booklet in his hand, and then got into the carriage.

In this way, the Gu family took a carriage and went straight to the prime minister's mansion with the dowry and marriage letter to the rising sun.

No, the carriage came with the sound of a clatter, and the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion reported to the mansion before they saw anyone, "Master, the people of the Gu family are here!" ”

This roar is deafening, he is afraid that his master will not hear it, right?

After the blue-clothed subordinate reported to him, Lu Chenyuan got up and walked to the courtyard gate, and when he saw Master Gu who had already gotten off the carriage, he stepped forward and smiled politely: "Brother Gu and sister-in-law are coming from afar, hard work, please sit down quickly." ”

What caught the eye was a slender figure, wearing a blue robe, the neckline and cuffs of the robe were inlaid with silver silk edge cloud pattern piping, this person was tied with a black gold-edged auspicious cloud wide-edged brocade belt around his waist, and his black hair was mixed with a few strands of silver.

Lu Chenyuan didn't think much about it, it was a good thing that Old Man Gu had a childish appearance.

At this time, Gu Chushi poked his head out from behind Master Gu, and he called softly: "Uncle Lu, aunt is good." ”

The gentle Gu Chushi was wearing a light blue robe, and there were wrinkles because he bowed down.

Lu Chenyuan saw that Gu Chushi, who was already half as tall as himself, was amazed in his heart, "Okay, Chushi has grown a lot taller!" ”

Master Gu lowered his tone and said with a smile: "Yes, Brother Lu has been doing lately?" ”

Lu Chenyuan responded politely, "It's all good, it's all good!" ”

Lin Tingcheng held Juan'er, who was holding a pink embroidered bamboo leaf in her right hand, and waved it in the direction of the garden, she deliberately reminded, "Shi'er go to the garden, practice dancing in the Lake Pavilion." ”

"Okay, thank you, aunt, mother, Chu Shi retired first.

Mrs. Gu nodded dignifiedly.

Gu Chushi didn't say anything more, he said goodbye to his mother and Lin Tingcheng respectfully after clenching his fists heartily.

Then Lin Tingcheng pulled Mrs. Gu forward to the main hall with broken steps, and said in a chattering voice: "Let's sit down first, come here, watch the tea." ”

Mrs. Gu and Lin Chengcheng sat down, the two have been negotiating for a long time, but they haven't seen the shadow of their master.

In a moment, the maid held a mahogany push plate, on which were placed five tea bowls and a few crystal clear pastries.

Lin Tingcheng thought to himself, this refreshment has come up, why haven't you seen it yet?

"Master, don't let the guests stand, it's unreasonable."

Finally, Lin Tingcheng couldn't bear it, she blamed Lu Chenyuan for pulling guests around every time, and she didn't remember that people were looking for her to discuss important matters.

"Okay, here, here, don't worry, madam!"

Lu Chenyuan led the way in front of him with his robe, and Master Gu followed behind, and the two were still unhurried.

After the two of them took their seats, they finally got down to business.

"Let's stop saying polite words, Shi'er's marriage can make me anxious, slim, generous, so likable, I can't wait to change Shi'er and your family!"

Master Gu was so excited that he gestured his fingers there.

Lu Chenyuan naturally understood what he meant, and he said slowly, "Hey, eldest brother is really good at laughing, Chu Shi is also a good boy, if you say this in front of him, will he hate you in the future?" ”

Lin Tingcheng saw that Mrs. Gu was also in a hurry, and if Lu Chenyuan dragged it down like this, he was afraid that it would not be appropriate to talk about the rape flowers blooming next year.

I saw that her eyebrows were solemn, and there was a sternness in her tone, "Master, don't be polite to your brother and sister-in-law, you see their sincerity, don't let them worry." ”

When Lu Chenyuan saw Lin Chengcheng like this, his expression changed, he slapped the table with his palm, and pretended to be angry: "Look at what you said, Manman is the same as not born by you, so you want her to marry off?" You don't want to think about me as a father, I'm distressed! ”

But the more he spoke, the tenderer he became.

When Lin Tingcheng heard this, she smiled and didn't say anything more.

Seeing that Lin Tingcheng had given himself enough face, Master Gu stroked his beard, his attitude was resolute, and his tone was a little flattering, he said: "The dowry has arrived in the main hall, and I have also prepared the marriage letter, Brother Lu, take a look." ”

As he spoke, Master Gu took out the red booklet that he had placed close to him and handed it to Lu Chenyuan.

The corners of Lu Chenyuan's mouth hooked up a sneer, like poppies blooming, his hand was on the red booklet handed over by Master Gu, and then said, "Wait, I have conditions." ”

It's all come to this point, Master Gu feels that there is no need to bargain, Lu Chenyuan's conditions shouldn't be too much, he lowered his head, and then said with a smile: "Please speak." ”

Master Gu presented the red booklet on the table with both hands, which was pressed by Lu Chenyuan.

Lu Chenyuan was calm, he raised his hand to take a cup of tea and drank it, and said the most serious words in the most leisurely tone, he said: "If Manman and Chushi don't want to become husband and wife when they grow up, then this family affair should have never happened, you have to agree to this, otherwise I don't want my baby daughter's happiness to be ruined by me." ”

Master Gu heard that it made sense, and he also understood that Lu Chenyuan felt sorry for his daughter, and was afraid that his daughter would be bullied if he married into the Gu Mansion in the future, so he nodded and agreed, "It's reasonable, it's reasonable." ”

The two families had a good conversation, and after a while the matter was settled.

Lu Chenyuan laughed happily, smiling proudly and presumptuously, "Then, it's decided, wait for the year of Long Man and Lu to pick an auspicious day of the zodiac and wait for you to marry." ”

"yes, okay."

The Gu couple looked at each other, their faces showing joy.

Lu Chenyuan took another sip of tea and said, "Actually, you guys are really in a hurry, she's still ...... young."

Old Master Gu looked calm, and said his heart as if nothing happened, "It's not that Brother Lu, you taught well, to be honest, if I had been born in someone else's house, I would have secretly taken it away!" ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu hurriedly slapped Master Gu's arm vigorously, her eyes turned red, and she scolded angrily: "What are you talking nonsense? ”

Seeing this, Lu Chenyuan kept a heartfelt eye, and then he raised his voice and laughed: "Hahaha, Brother Gu is really joking." ”

Lin Chengcheng covered half of his face with a handkerchief, his eyebrows moved slightly, and his mouth outlined a beautiful arc.

The two in-laws ended the topic in laughter, and the marriage was promoted.
