Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Old Lady Asks

In Gu Man's room, after drinking the soothing soup, the two sat by the window, chatting and doing needlework.

In fact, when I have nothing to do, I do needlework to pass the time, Su Wan likes this leisurely feeling.

It's just that most of the time, I always have to worry about my situation, so I don't have much time to do needlework.

And the needlework is easy to pierce the hands, so compared with the needlework, Su Wan prefers to tie the strings.

"Sister, have you thought about my second brother's proposal?" Gu Man asked.

"I've thought about it, but it's not up to me to have the final say in this matter, and I have to go home, and the elders will call the shots," Su Wan said.

Su Botong came yesterday and left today, and he must have known about it.

But until now, the old lady has not called her to speak, I am afraid that it has not been decided.

However, it is not decided, and it does not mean that it is rejected.

"If you want me to say, it's best if you can marry into my family," Gu Man said with a smile.

Su Wan shook his head.

"Although the family is right, your second brother is the most important sister-in-law in the family, and I am a concubine, so it is not suitable," Su Wan said.

That's how the argument goes.

"You don't have to belittle yourself, although the difference between the concubines is very important, to put it bluntly, my family also values this, but this is also to divide people, you are afraid that you don't know, my grandmother is a concubine married to my grandfather" Gu Man said quietly.

Su Wan was taken aback when she heard this, and hurriedly looked around, and saw that the maids were all standing far away, and no one could hear this, so she was relieved.

"Sister, you don't want to hurt me, how can you say anything" Su Wan couldn't help but complain.

She had never heard that the old lady of the Gu family was actually born as a concubine.

In the memory of the original owner, there is no such memory at all.

But one thing can be confirmed, when the old lady of the Gu family married into the Gu family, the Gu family was already quite powerful, and the old lady, who was still young at the time, was not an unknown person on the battlefield.

It sounds unbelievable that such a character would marry a concubine.

"It's not that I believe in your personality to tell you, besides, this matter is not a secret in the Gu family clan, but my grandmother is very old, and the clan is evasive, and she doesn't want to touch her grandmother's moldy head, so this matter is gradually hidden" Gu Man explained.

The implication is that there is nothing to shy away from.

The reason why everyone didn't say it was completely to give face to the old lady of the Gu family.

"My sister believes in me too much" Su Wan shook her head and said helplessly.

In fact, Li Pei also once 'put his heart into her', but the two gave her completely different feelings.

"I just want to say that it's impossible for my family not to care about the family, but it's not like killing everyone with one shot," Gu Man said.

"That's not appropriate, your second brother is too big with me," Su Wan said.

Her small body is now a parent, and she has a baby in a round house, and it will take a few years to give birth.

But what about Gu Ming, the sister-in-law valued by the Gu family is not young, marrying a wife and having children, it sounds like two things, but it is actually one thing.

"Anyway, I want you to marry into my family and be my companion," Gu Man said.

"Hehe, I just married into your family, and you have already married, and there will still be two families living at that time" Su Wan said sharply.

Gu Man thought about it, it was really like this.

"Okay, I still don't want to do this, but we've been in the temple for a few days, and it just so happened that there was a murder again, I'm afraid I'm going to be ready to go down the mountain soon" Su Wan changed the topic and said.

Shangxiang was originally trying to have a good intention, but it turned out to be such an unfortunate thing as a murder, and it was time to leave.

"Hey, this farewell, I don't know if you and I will have a chance to meet in the future," Gu Man sighed.

Su Wan was also silent.

When Gu Man mentioned family affairs, Su Wan was obviously a little reluctant.

So you can't escape from entering Beijing, and in the future, I really don't know how.

"Sister, if you can, stay in Suzhou City, or, if you can come back in the future, come back, the capital is deep, and the opportunity is left to those who want to stay there" Gu Man said seriously.

"I know," Su Wan said, nodding.

All day, Su Wan was in Gu Man's yard, and the two of them didn't move around, doing needlework or reading books to pass the time.

In the evening, the two discussed and asked Su Wan to stay and sleep.

It's a pity that someone came from the old lady's side, and Su Wan had no choice but to say goodbye to Gu Man.

When he arrived at the old lady's courtyard, Su Wan immediately saw Su Zhongyu and Su De.

Vaguely, Su Wan found that Su De's figure was a little crooked, and he didn't know why.

"Daddy, second brother," Su Wan stepped forward and shouted.

"Daughter's house, what does it look like to run around" Su Zhongyu said with a cold face.

Su Wan just didn't hear it, and she didn't speak.

For this person, Su Wan has no good impression at all.

And this is still the old lady's yard, in front of the old lady's door, it is really ugly to criticize her daughter without any scruples.

But I heard movement inside, and hurriedly came out to invite someone.

Su Zhongyu threw his sleeves and went in first, while Su De waited for Su Wan to advance before he followed in.

"Wan'er has seen grandmother" Su Wan stepped forward and saluted.

"Get up," said the old lady.

Su De also saluted, and under the light in the room, his body was indeed a little crooked.

The old lady at the top pursed her lips, why Su De was crooked, she already knew.

Her second son, really doesn't know how to say it, so that she can treat her children well.

"Sit down," said the old lady.

Su Wan was obedient, neatly picked a suitable position for himself, and when Su Zhongyu and Su De sat down, they sat down.

"De'er did a good job this time, although it will inevitably arouse some suspicion, but he is not afraid of crooked shadows, and he has not lost the face of the Su family," the old lady said.

Not long after the three of them sat down, the old lady began to comment on the events of the past few days.

Although Su De's cloak aroused the suspicion of others at the beginning, after the suspect was arrested, the suspicion at the beginning became an honor at the moment.

"My grandson just did what he had to do," Sude said modestly.

"It's good that you think so, but you still have to be awarded, this string of Buddhist beads has been offered in front of the Buddha for three hundred days, you can take it and wear it," the old lady said.

The old lady had a box in her hand, and someone brought it to Sud at this moment.

After Su De opened it, it was indeed a string of Buddhist beads.

"More grandmother," Sud said, getting up and thanking him.

It has been offered for three hundred days, that is, it is almost a year, and the old lady produced it, the materials of the Buddha beads are all of the best quality, this string of Buddha beads is not cheap, Su Wan thought in his heart.

After finishing speaking, the old lady looked at Su Wan again.

Su Wan knew in her heart that what had to do with her must be related to Gu Ming's proposal.

"Does Wan'er know that the Gu family intends to marry our family?" The old lady asked.

Can you not know.

There is also the problem of this title, Su Wan heard the old lady call herself so affectionately, and she felt a little frightened.
