Chapter 40: It's Time to Marry a Lady

"Why are you here? What's wrong with it? Shen Sixian looked at her slightly red and swollen ankles and asked, "Are your feet okay?" ”

"It's fine." Lin Zihan smiled open-mindedly, "Are you free?" I was in a hurry last time, and I haven't had time to thank you properly, so I want to treat you to a meal, so I will treat it as a ...... You have been rewarded for your courageous deeds. ”

Shen Sixian pondered for a moment, then curled the corners of his lips and agreed, "Okay." ”

——

On this day, it gradually began to rain in the deep city, and the sky was gray.

Dock.

Gu Chengxuan was dressed in a black robe and got off the ship.

The starry eyes of the past were now full of exhaustion, and their faces were a little pale.

Half a month didn't come back, and there was a feeling of being in a different world.

Chen Feng and the others were all dressed in military uniforms, and they led soldiers to solemnly surround the dock, and when they saw Gu Chengxuan, they respectfully saluted the wharf.

Chen Feng and Xiao Se, the garrison officer in the south of the city, walked over together, and Chen Feng jokingly said, "Welcome our honorable Young Marshal Gu home." ”

"Less poor." Gu Chengxuan looked like he couldn't stand him, "Are you in a panic?" Engage in such a big battle, like a landowner. ”

"It's not like we're doing it on purpose, it's really the brothers who are looking forward to your return." Xiao Se laughed on the side: "I always feel uneasy when you are not in the deep city these days. ”

Qi Ye stepped forward and patted Xiao Se on the shoulder, "Old Xiao, I heard that you have just finished a happy event in the past two days?" Congratulations. It's a pity that Sung Hyun and I didn't catch up to drink your cup of wine. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Se immediately raised his eyebrows, and said embarrassedly: "Harm, what's this, come to my house tonight, it's enough!" ”

Chen Feng saw that Gu Chengxuan hadn't spoken much all the time, and he was still full of concern, so he quipped: "Chengxuan, you seem to be in bad spirits." ”

"Yes." Gu Chengxuan said unconcernedly.

"Could it be that the beauty is in her arms and forgets moderation for a while?" He looked at him meaningfully.

He had something to say, Gu Chengxuan noticed it, frowned, and asked rhetorically: "You yin and yang weirdness, what do you mean?" ”

Xiao Se said with a hearty smile on the side: "The news has already been spread, who doesn't know that Young Marshal Xiao Gu met Wenxiang nephrite in Liangcheng and was tripped up." ”

Gu Chengxuan's face darkened a little, and he asked Qi Ye, "What did you say?" ”

"It's not me!" Qi Ye hurriedly denied it.

Chen Feng has always been a big deal to see the excitement, and Xiao Se can only come out to play a round when he sees this, "It's not a shameful thing, it's time for the young marshal to marry a lady." ”

"Marry a lady? Anyway, I don't think that so far, no girl from any family has been able to get into the eyes of our Gu family's eldest young master. Chen Feng chuckled.

Gu Chengxuan coughed dryly twice, and glanced at him with a squint: "Aren't you the same?" ”

"I'm different, I'm not as stubborn as you." Chen Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, and denied it, "My parents don't have to worry about my life's events. The two of us, it must be you who can have emotional problems. ”

"Hey, the problem of the two of you starting to fight as soon as you meet is really persisting from childhood to adulthood." Xiao Se said helplessly, "Let's go, Uncle Gu is still waiting to see him." ”

——

Overseer's House.

In the vestibule.

Qi Ye followed Gu Chengxuan and felt the solemnity of the atmosphere as soon as he came in.

Gu Qian looked in a bad mood.

Gu Chengxuan glanced at Gu Qian, who had an ugly face, indifferently, and asked coldly, "Why are you in such a hurry to call me back?" ”

Gu Gan, who was already angry, couldn't calm down when he saw his attitude.

"Get on your knees."

Gu Chengxuan didn't say anything, and knelt in front of Gu Gan with a calm face.

"Bang-" With a muffled sound, Gu Qian took the cane and hit Gu Chengxuan on the back.

"Young marshal!" Qi Ye's eyes widened.

Gu Chengxuan knelt upright, stunned and didn't snort in pain.

"Didn't you just say three or five days? How did you go for so long? I didn't know that a trip to the arms business would require you to stay that long. Gu Qian said angrily,

"Do you really think of yourself as a soldier? Do you still have the people of our deep city in your heart? ”

Gu Chengxuan gritted his teeth, his Adam's apple moved, he groaned for a long time, and said briefly: "I met an old man." ”

Hearing this, Gu Qian raised his crutches again.

"Handsome! I can't beat it, the young marshal still has a wound on his back! Qi Ye hurriedly stopped and said.

Gu Qian was startled, put down his crutches, and his tone softened significantly: "How did you get hurt?" ”

Gu Chengxuan replied indifferently: "For the injury of the deceased." ”

"Is that the eldest lady of the Lin family?" Gu Qian's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he shouted, "When did you know her?" How did I not know that you were still involved with her? ”

Gu Chengxuan did not speak.

Gu Qian's expression was a little disappointed, and he sighed lightly, "You are not a child anymore, you should know that all of our expectations are on you, but you are good, greedy for beauty, are you worthy of us?" ”

"I'm not lustful for beauty." Gu Chengxuan resolutely denied it, and then said word by word:

"I want to start a family."

Gu Qian was stunned, surprised and hesitant: "What did you say?" ”

"I want to start a family." Gu Chengxuan repeated, "Isn't it okay? ”

"Absolutely." Gu Qian really didn't expect Gu Chengxuan, who had gone out for a trip, to have this idea, "If you really want to start a family, I naturally won't stop you." It just so happened that the Zhu family came. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Chengxuan hesitated for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Northwest Zhujia?" Who's coming? ”

"Xiaoxiao is here." Gu Qian said in a deep voice.

"So I think it's time to prepare for your marriage."

Gu Chengxuan suddenly got up and asked angrily, "Marriage?!" When did I say I wanted to marry Zhu Xiao? ”

"If you don't marry her, who else do you want to marry?" Gu Qian's eyes were sharp and cold, and there was a hint of disdain in his tone: "That small family, the girl who came out was rude and willful, unruly, like a wild girl, really not in line with a family like us." ”

Gu Chengxuan raised his sword eyebrows and said coldly: "Even if you are rude and willful, you will live with me for the rest of your life!" As long as I like it, she is willful and has nothing to do with others. ”

"You-"

"You called me back for this?" Gu Chengxuan interrupted him, changed his words, and asked.

Gu Qian glanced at him coldly, and seeing that he was so resolute, he didn't say anything more, "Luo Cheng sent a telegram asking for support. Would you like to take the troops with you? ”

"I don't have a problem here." Gu Chengxuan's voice was cold, and then he could lengthen his tone: "It's just ......"

"Since I have reached the age of starting a family, when I finish solving the affairs of Los Angeles, I will go to the Lin family in Liangcheng to propose marriage."

Gu Qian really didn't expect Gu Chengxuan to learn this trick.

"Are you serious, you have a relationship with that Lin family's eldest lady?"

Gu Chengxuan groaned and nodded heavily, "Yes, I have decided that in my life, I will not marry her." ”

"Are you dizzy?"

Gu Chengxuan didn't look over, he looked like he couldn't listen to anything.

Gu Qian coughed violently, "Do you know that the Lin family has always been unclean?" Not to mention that there is now a Zhu Xiaozai who has a family background and character that matches you, even if I don't care about the right family, her Lin family is really not bright, what kind of goods can a woman from such a background be? ”

"It doesn't matter." Gu Chengxuan's expression was indifferent, "I didn't plan to ask you what you mean about this matter, I just informed you, remember to ask someone to prepare supplies for the happy event, don't be in a hurry at that time, I don't want my wedding to be too shabby and wronged her." ”

He is also just an ordinary person, as he said, he also wants to be a family and live a safe and stable life.

"Gu Chengxuan!"

"I'm going to say goodbye to my mother first." Gu Chengxuan said, turned around and went upstairs.

"When my wounds are better, I will set off with my troops." He put it down at the end.

What he didn't like the most was that others told him that he and Gu Weibai were not suitable.

He didn't understand, why was it inappropriate? If nothing else, is he not as good as Qin Jingqian, who was killed halfway?

——

Gu Chengxuan knocked lightly.

Heard Gu Nanxuan's voice inside: "Come in." ”

In the inner room, Gu Nanxuan was feeding Mrs. Gu medicine.

"Mother." Gu Chengxuan called out in a deep voice.

Mrs. Gu smiled slightly and said, "I'm back." ”

"Hmm." Gu Chengxuan stepped forward, took the medicine bowl in Gu Nanxuan's hand, and sat on the edge of the bed, "Let my mother remember it." ”

Mrs. Gu chuckled lightly and waved her hand to signal Gu Nanxuan: "You go out first, and I'll talk to your brother." ”

"Okay." Gu Nanxuan responded and walked away.

Mrs. Gu stroked Gu Chengxuan's head distressedly, and said helplessly: "Your father, did he beat you again?" ”

"After so many years, I've gotten used to it." Gu Chengxuan gently blew the medicine in the spoon and fed it to Mrs. Gu.

"In his heart, there is a country first, and then a home, and his expectations for you are too great." Mrs. Gu muttered, "He also has his own troubles, don't blame your father." ”

"I know." Gu Chengxuan said, "Besides, I understand, this time, it was originally me who did something wrong." ”

Mrs. Gu pursed her lips and smiled, looked at her son playfully, and asked, "Do you really like that girl?" ”

Gu Chengxuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled unconcealably, nodded and replied, "Well, I like it." ”

"I like it very much." He added.

"I trust your vision." Mrs. Gu said deeply, "Do you have any photos?" Let me take a look at it in advance, too. ”

The light in Gu Chengxuan's eyes dimmed, and he shook his head, "Not yet." ”

"That's a shame."

Gu Chengxuan pondered for a moment, and asked Mrs. Gu in a very ordinary tone, "Mother, are you...... Remember the slight whiteness. ”

This name has become a taboo for the Gu family three years ago, and few people have ever mentioned it.

"That's my daughter, how could I not remember." Mrs. Gu said sadly.

"I ......" Gu Sung-hyun wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, "I actually ......"

"You like her?" Mrs. Gu asked with a smile.
