Chapter 535: Visiting Auntie
It wasn't until Gu Mingzhu stopped dressing up that Cui Lin came back.
Dressed in a azure dark silver satin robe, with a white jade pattern pendant around his waist, a silver crown on his head, and a slight smile on his handsome face, he strode in, looking at Gu Mingzhu with burning eyes.
Ah Bi and Xiao Kui hurriedly stepped aside and stood with their hands down.
Gu Mingzhu was a little embarrassed on his face, got up and chuckled, "Lang Jun." ”
Cui Lin looked at her who was dressed as a woman and looked more delicate and moving, and said with a smile: "Let's go." ”
The soup has been prepared a long time ago, although the rule is that the bride cooks it herself, but it is just a meaning, no bride in any house is made by herself, they are all pampered women, naturally the servants help to do it, and the bride has all such a rule.
In the inner hall, Cui Cheng and Mrs. Cui sat on the upper seat, and the people of the Cui family in Chang'an were all sitting on the side, and it was crowded and crowded.
Gu Mingzhu followed Cui Lin in and bowed.
Cui Cheng, as always, nodded with a gentle smile, said a few words about the harmony of husband and wife, then took the soup offered by Gu Mingzhu and took a bite and put it aside.
Mrs. Cui looked at Gu Mingzhu carefully for a while before reaching out to take the soup, and said in a light tone: "The rules in the house are heavy, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, it's better to be cautious and careful." ”
This sounds like nothing, but Gu Mingzhu's heart is tight, the eldest lady's attitude is a little different, it seems that she has accepted it before, but why has it changed now? But what happened?
She naturally didn't show anything on her face, and responded with a smile: "Yes, if you don't understand anything in the future, I will go to ask A-Niang." ”
The attitude is very respectful.
Mrs. Cui's face softened a little, and she took a bite of soup before putting it down.
The people of the Cui family in Chang'an had nothing to say, they all smiled and admitted to Gu Mingzhu, and politely said nothing else.
Worshipping my aunt was so smooth, but Gu Mingzhu knew in her heart that this was only in Chang'an, and waiting for Boling to return was the real recognition ceremony, and I was afraid that it would not be so easy at that time.
She got up and stepped aside, and sat down on the couch next to Cui Lin.
Cui Cheng looked at Mrs. Cui, and Mrs. Cui instructed the maid to bring out a lacquered wood plate and looked at Gu Mingzhu: "You just married into the Cui family, this is also a little bit of our heart, you can accept it." ”
It was a recognition ceremony, and Gu Mingzhu did not shirk it, and generously let people accept it.
Cui Cheng and Cui Lin chatted a few more words before they smiled and said: "Tomorrow, you will enter the palace to thank you, so go back first, and after returning to Ning in three days, you will leave to go back to Boling." ”
Cui Lin and Gu Mingzhu responded together, Cui Cheng got up, and Mrs. Cui also got up with him and walked out, Cui Lin and Gu Mingzhu sent them out, and then went back to their yard together.
Cui Lin still had to go to the front yard to deal with things, and Gu Mingzhu stayed in the yard by himself.
On the wedding night, they didn't have to live in the Qinglu, Gu Mingzhu went back to the courtyard and called Mama Han to speak.
Hearing that she was going to leave for Boling after returning to Ning, Mama Han was also taken aback, she didn't expect it to be in such a hurry, but Gu Mingzhu's dowry was so many, and it was not so easy to transport them all to Boling.
Gu Mingzhu had already prepared, and said to Mama Han: "It's okay, the shop here in Chang'an has already made preparations, let Steward Li come over with a carriage and send the cages to Luoyang, Luoyang has already prepared a boat to wait, and it will be sent to Zhuojun, where someone will also be arranged to pick it up." ”
As she spoke, she frowned: "It's just that I'm afraid I want to talk to Lang Jun about this matter." ”
Although it is her dowry, the Cui family can see it, and there is no need to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.
Mama Han nodded in response: "Then the maid will arrange it." ”
Gu Mingzhu thought for a while and said, "You don't need to tell them about the boat. ”
Boats, mines and private soldiers are her means of saving her life, although she is not like Cui Lin and Li Yu at the beginning, but Gu Mingzhu has always had reservations, she is really afraid, afraid that after giving everything, she will one day fall to the point of being driven out and miserable.
Gu Mingzhu was discussing how to carry the dowry, and the atmosphere in Mrs. Cui's room was also gloomy.
Mrs. Cui sat on the couch, her face was gloomy, and she had a cup of tea in her hand, but she didn't move at all.
Mama Song on the side looked at it, and also knew her thoughts, and persuaded softly: "...... It's rare that Gorou-kun likes it, and now it's all happy, and Mrs. is still ......"
Mrs. Cui sighed: "If he didn't like it so much, it wouldn't be such a marriage now." ”
Mama Song smiled in her heart, saying that she was not satisfied, but when Wulang went to the clan to ask the old lady for permission, the lady couldn't help but quietly return to the clan, helped the old lady say a lot of words, and was particularly concerned about Gu Mingzhu's affairs.
Mama Song changed a cup of tea for her: "Now that she has been married by the palace, Wulangjun is also happy, and Mrs. is still relieved." ”
Mrs. Cui smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm just afraid that he is confused for a while, he has tried his best for this marriage, he did not hesitate to go to the old lady and the elders of the clan to intercede, and he also entered the palace in person to ask for marriage, he is so proud that people are willing to bow their heads for this family business, how can I not agree to him, but, but he ...... it"
She didn't say anything after all, just sighed again and again.
Mama Song said in a low voice: "Lord Lang didn't speak?" ”
Mrs. Cui closed her eyes and shook her head: "Don't you know his temperament?" Over the years, they have been upright and fair, saying that each house is a descendant of the branch, regardless of the eldest and youngest. ”
"But, do you want me to just look at Gorou and him......" she shook her head and sighed.
Mama Song has been serving by Mrs. Cui's side, and she also knows the knot in her heart: "There must be a way, don't worry, madam." ”
She changed the subject: "Although the county lord is from your mansion, he looks quite advanced and retreating when he acts and speaks, and his wife can be much more relieved." ”
Speaking of Gu Mingzhu, Mrs. Cui's expression was a little complicated, she frowned, and stretched out again: "It's good to look at, but I don't know if I can handle it when I go to Boling." ”
"After all, we are not as good as ordinary people, she is considered a clan woman when she marries, if you don't understand that big mess, I'm afraid that the clan will still not agree."
This marriage seems to be decided at the moment, but there are too many unstable factors, and the Cui family has temporarily formed an alliance with the Queen Mother, but if something happens in the future and the situation between the DPRK and China changes, can Cui Lin and Gu Mingzhu still live in peace like this? Even now, it is not easy to be the sect wife of the Cui family, and Mrs. Cui does not think that Gu Mingzhu can do well.
When she thought of this, she could only sigh deeply, her face full of worry and depression.
