Chapter 495: Proposal 2
What kind of means is Gu Yezhou, and what rank is Ming'an.
Although it was explained that Mi said that he wanted to inquire secretly, a euphemistic hint, but Ming An only made a start, and Gu Yezhou understood Ming An's intention.
Through Ming An, I understood Ming Mi's thoughts.
I was very proud of myself.
His face was impassive.
"Okay, second brother, thank you, but don't worry, I can still give your sister a decent dowry."
In this way, Ming An was pushed out in a daze.
Gu Yezhou has a house in the capital, which was given by the emperor, this time Gu Yezhou made meritorious service and entered the rank, and he is already a second-rank hussar general.
The General's Mansion is not very big, but it is not small, and it is enough for them to live together.
Gu Yezhou had been preparing for two months.
First settled the inside and outside of the general's mansion, and then began to prepare for the dowry.
On the day of the hiring, he slapped those who watched the excitement in the face.
The Marquis of Changping looked at the boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and fine silk that were carried in, and there were ninety-nine boxes.
And the gold alone is enough for 100,000 taels! The implication is one in a million!
There are two large boxes of fine jewelry, and the marks on the outside of the box look like Zhen Bao Zhai's things.
There are also five large boxes of Nanhai Jiaosha.
You must know that the South China Sea is very rare, especially after the relationship with the South China Sea has gradually deteriorated over the years.
At this time, people understood that Gu Yezhou's family was not without money.
Especially this Nanhai Jiaosha, I'm afraid it's the spoils of war obtained in this expedition.
The general gets some of the spoils, this is an unwritten rule in private, and the emperor will not care too much about it.
And Gu Yezhou, a stupid roe deer, actually lifted it out directly and put it on the bright side, is this for fear that others will not know that he has won the trophy?
Especially when he saw the boxes of gold, Changping Hou couldn't sit still, and couldn't help asking, "Didn't you have all the loot looted by you?" ”
Mrs. Gu on the side: ......
Can this also be asked in public?
Everyone was also shocked by Changping Hou's straightforward temperament.
This is really something to say......
Gu Yezhou smiled on his face, not annoyed at all, "That Nanhai Jiaosha is, all the Nanhai Jiaosha are here, I specially begged for it with the emperor, and you can do without other rewards, as long as this is written Nanhai Jiaojiaosha." ”
"You stupid boy, although these South China Sea yarns are rare, where can they compare to the emperor's reward?" Mrs. Gu couldn't help but say.
Gu Yezhou shook his head: "You can earn it again in the future, but if Nanhai Jiaosha doesn't grab it this time, it will really be gone." ”
"Without it, there is no ......"
"No, I must like this Nanhai Jiaosha Mingmi, I don't want to miss it."
Oops.
When he said this, the teeth of all the people present were sore.
Gu Mingwei, who was hiding behind and eavesdropping, couldn't help but teased: "How about it, look at it, you are really the person on the tip of people's hearts now, and you always say that General Gu is for the sake of children?" ”
Ming Mi raised his head proudly, the joy on his face was undisguised, "Count him doing a good job this time." ”
No matter what kind of woman she is, she wants to be held in the palm of her hand by a man, and she hopes that her unintentional words will be put in her heart by the other party.
It's not about preciousness, it's just about the heart.
"Then these gold ......" Marquis Changping was a little worried, if there was something to rob the family, then wouldn't he pay for his death?
Gu Yezhou took the trouble to explain: "This is the money I earn from doing business, all my net worth." ”
As if he was afraid that others would think too much, he deliberately emphasized that it was all he had.
In this case, it will not be so conspicuous.
"You're still in business, huh?" Second Uncle Ming was a little stunned.
Gu Yezhou knew that many dignitaries looked down on businessmen, so he couldn't help but explain: "When I was a child, my family was poor. My father often beat and scolded me and my mother because I didn't have money, and at that time I swore that I would make a lot of money in the future, not asking for a lot, at least so that the people I care about can live a life where I can afford everything I want. ”
Even if there were those who looked down on the businessman, after he said this, he was moved by more admiration than disdain.
Many Mrs. Zhengfu experienced the days of being suffocated because of money, and couldn't help but nod.
This General Gu's mind is good, and he is indeed attentive enough.
Originally, I thought that Ming Mi was a low marriage, and even thought that Ming Mi was a self-depraved person who gave birth to Gu Yezhou before she got married, and most of them were a little envious at this time.
It is rare to see a man with such intentions.
"Uncle, please rest assured, if I can get your love and marry Ming Mi to me, I will cherish it and love it. No matter how many children there are, no matter how old or decrepit, there will never be two colors around you. I will grow old with Ming Mi, only each other. ”
After these sincere words, coupled with so many dowry gifts in front of them, many people said words of blessing.
Some even said something sour.
Like what......
"No wonder Ming Mi is willing to give you a child before you get married, it turns out that he is such an excellent son."
Before Changping Hou and Ming An could make a move, Gu Yezhou immediately said: "It's Ming Mi who is a good girl, even if she knows that my life and death are uncertain on the battlefield, she is willing to wait for me, and endure the criticism of others to give birth to this child." ”
And so on and so forth.
On the day of the proposal, Gu Yezhou's performance was perfect.
Not to mention others, Gu Mingwei was also a little envious, but more, she was still happy for Mingmi.
"Sister Huan, don't worry, I see that General Gu is a man of his word. You and Xiao Yueyue will be happy. ”
Ming Mi's daughter was named Gu Qinyue.
Although Ming Mi is unruly and even does not abide by the etiquette law, Ming Mi also knows very well in her heart that it is not easy for her to meet a good man like Gu Yezhou who appreciates her.
Her daughter, it's better not to be like her.
After all, who knows if there will be someone like Gu Yezhou in the future.
For the sake of my daughter's safety and smoothness in the future, it is better to be ordinary.
"Speaking of which, you stand out everywhere, and it is really surprising that you would give Xiao Yueyue such a supple name."
Gu Mingwei thought of the child's name, and couldn't help but tease.
Ming Mi curled the corners of her mouth, as if she remembered something, "The hardships I have endured for my unruliness are known only to me." As a woman, it's better not to be too prominent. ”
This world is not so lenient to women, so she would rather her daughter be ordinary.
"yes, but I'm surprised you could say such a thing."
"People always have to become. I'm not like you, the bad ones are holding in there. ”
"That's how you can better protect yourself."
"That's exactly what you said. By the way, I heard my aunt tell you that you have a ......."
Two years later, Gu Mingwei became a family and married the Jiangnan Governor George Ming, who was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the two were very affectionate, and later gave birth to three sons and two daughters, and George Ming was also very good to Gu Mingwei's son Qi Cheng.
He lived in Jiangnan until Qi Cheng was fifteen years old and went to Northern Xinjiang alone, and then he has been guarding Northern Xinjiang and never returned.
