Chapter 64: The Process of the Concubine
"So that's the case," Su Jin said with a sad face: "Brother Gu, the Prime Minister deliberately stuffed a concubine for you, obviously intentionally humiliating and not wanting to fulfill his promise, how could you agree so easily?" And the third lady is rumored to be a straw bag, how can she be worthy of Brother Gu? ”
Tang Yanning's reputation has long been a mess under the deliberate spread of Tang Yanyu and Tang Yanqing
What kind of straw bales, waste firewood, nympho girl, anyway, all the unpleasant words are put on her, so outsiders know that the Tang family also has a useless third lady.
Gu Huaisheng glanced at Jin Niang and said lightly: "Jin Niang, if you see it with your own eyes, don't say anything." ”
Although his tone was gentle and with a hint of a smile on his face, Jin Niang heard a feeling of displeasure from this short sentence.
In fact, she didn't know that Brother Gu had always been thoughtful and very sure in doing things, and since he could agree to this marriage, it proved that Miss Straw Bale Third was not as rumored.
It's just selfish that I can persuade like that, and I still have a glimmer of hope.
She smiled, with a hint of bitterness, and said, "It's me who is confused, since Brother Gu can agree, presumably the third young lady must have something extraordinary." Don't worry, Brother Gu, I will help you with the dowry soon. ”
"There is labor."
After a moment of silence, Su Jin suddenly asked, "Then I don't know if Brother Gu is hired according to the requirements of the concubine or the requirements of the wife?" ”
She could have directly purchased the dowry according to the process of the concubine's marriage, but she wanted to test the weight of Miss Tang San in Brother Gu's heart, so she asked.
If Brother Gu is really just for the friendship of the whole family, then the concubine's request has already been counted as enough face, if he has the heart to treat her as the original match of the eight classics, it is not too much to match the courtesy of a concubine.
Gu Huaisheng directly broke through the mystery in her words and said: "According to the concubine's, the concubine in the capital will be raised as much as she marries, and she will be lifted as much as she wants." ”
The bitterness in Su Jin's eyes was even worse.
Brother Gu didn't hesitate to treat a concubine according to the process of a concubine, so exalted to her, I'm afraid there are not many in the whole capital, right?
She smiled and quipped: "Brother Gu really loves his future sister-in-law, and he is afraid of losing her face before he has passed the door." ”
The corners of Gu Huaisheng's lips were slightly raised, "Since you marry me, I will definitely give it to others if they have it, and I can't let her be criticized and ridiculed." ”
It's a pity for such a good man!
Originally, she always thought that Brother Gu would not get married so quickly, and she still had time to take her time to capture his heart, but she didn't know that the reality was so cruel, and a basin of water poured her cold.
She put away the astringency in her eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Gu, don't worry, Jin Niang will definitely handle it for you." ”
Gu Huaisheng nodded, and after the two talked for a while, he got up and said goodbye.
When he was about to leave, he met Su Jin's sister Su Yue, and Su Yue pulled him and talked excitedly for a while, during which Su Jin did not chat with him as usual, and sat there quietly looking at the man he had admired for five years.
"Hey, come back to your senses, Brother Gu has been gone for a long time, still watch."
Su Yue waved her hand twice in front of her sister, making some ambiguous jokes.
Su Jin waved away Su Yue's hand and said angrily: "Where am I taking care of my eldest brother, I'm just thinking about things." ”
Glancing at her sister, she smiled and said, "Don't think I don't know your thoughts, every time Brother Gu comes, your eyes can't wait to stick to others." Hey, if you want me to say, if you like it, chase it, why are you so entangled. There are not many good men like Brother Gu now, if they are snatched away by others, you will cry. ”
Su Jin sighed, "It has been snatched away, and Brother Gu came this time to ask me to help him buy a dowry."
"What?" Su Yue's eyes widened violently, and she shook her sister's arm: "How is it possible, hasn't Brother Gu always been single?" Why are you going to get married all of a sudden? You told me who snatched it, and my sister helped you get it back. ”
Su Yue has been a little arrogant by Su Jin in the past two years, and when she heard that someone really dared to snatch her sister's lover, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and looked like she was going to find someone to fight.
Su Jin looked at his sister's shrewd-like appearance, glanced at him, and said helplessly: "It's the third lady of the Tang family, this family business is agreed by Brother Gu himself, and no one can take it back." ”
Su Yue's little face fell, and she pouted, "How can Brother Gu be so fickle, there was no news a month ago, and this month he is going to get married directly, and even the steps of marriage are saved, and he even wants you to help buy a dowry, isn't this a stab in your chest?" No, I'm going to go to Brother Gu to ask clearly, it's best to let Brother Gu marry you too. ”
"Stop," Su Jin suddenly raised his voice, with a serious face, and said, "You come back for me, I'll tell you, if you leak this matter of loving Brother Gu, I will not have you as a sister." ”
Su Yue reluctantly moved back one foot that had already stepped out of the threshold, sat at the table and pouted without speaking.
Su Jinyan didn't know that his sister was also for his own good, but he didn't say anything about it for five years, and at this moment, he suddenly ran to confess when he got married, and it was clear that he wanted to break up the family, and in the future, Brother Gu would not treat himself like this in the future.
However, some love does not have to be spoken.
Su Jin comforted her sister, explained to her the harm of interests before and after, and made her understand that now is not a good time to go to Brother Gu.
Su Yue nodded unwillingly, saying that she knew, and she wouldn't talk nonsense when she went out, so that her sister could rest assured.
Su Jin gently touched her head, just like when she was a child, every time she was unhappy, her sister comforted her by touching her head, making her feel warm and steady.
Su Yue has just turned fourteen this year, and when her family was downtrodden and bullied before, it was Brother Gu who stepped forward to help them solve it, and in private, she had already regarded Brother Gu as her future brother-in-law.
Suddenly, she told him that Brother Gu was going to be someone else's brother-in-law, and she couldn't accept someone else's father-in-law.
It's like a thing you have always liked very much, although you didn't get it, but it's in front of you every day, and now it's taken away by someone else, and you can no longer look at it cordially in the future, touch, she is very disappointed, unwilling, and secretly complains about the third lady who has never met.
My sister is so smart and beautiful, she knows the general situation and etiquette, Brother Gu is really blind.

Of course, the commission for buying the store was also very expensive, costing her nearly three thousand taels of silver.
