Chapter 119 Visit for Negotiation
Chapter 119 Visit for Negotiation
Of course, they still didn't understand Gu Dazhui. Given the extent of their love affair, even if Ye Shuixian stabbed him twice, he would have to stab her again to cheer her up.
Xiang's face looked extremely ugly. Although she doted on her son, she also knew that Dazhu had no ability and was lazy. How could a woman like Ye Narcissus, who had a high opinion of herself, fall in love with him?
"Dazhu, are you too tired and confused? I'll ask your aunt for a few days off, and you can go home and rest first."
Gu Dazhu was anxious. This was his own mother, why didn't she believe him? Narcissus was always shy and didn't express her feelings. Now that she had spoken, he couldn't let her down.
Besides, Ye Shuixian told him to settle this matter with his parents as soon as he returned and announce to the public that they were engaged. Although he didn't know why she did this, he certainly had to do it.
He was also anxious: "Mom, if you don't let me marry Narcissus, I will run away from home."
Xiang looked at her disappointing son and almost fainted. She had spoiled him to such an extent that he became too lawless over the years!
Zhao Qiqi quickly dispersed the people who were watching the show around him, and gave them some instructions before everyone left.
It seems that he can't get rid of the relationship with his own son. Zhao Qiqi looked at the deadlock and didn't know how to speak.
"Well, since they are getting married and the woman is in love, Dazhu has reached the right age to get married. If they really want to be together, it's not a bad idea." Old Mrs. Gu had spoken, and Xiang couldn't say anything.
Gu Dazhu was delighted, and gratefully took Old Lady Gu's hand, saying affectionately: "Grandma, you love me the most."
Old Madam Gu glared at him and said, "Since you are getting married, you should behave yourself. You are so unruly all day long and keep saying you want to run away from home. Isn't this childish behavior?
"Yes, yes, I'll listen to you."
Gu Dazhu couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. It was just a few words of lecture and he didn't care at all.
"Okay, eldest daughter-in-law, we will go back first. Now that we have decided on the matter, we should start planning."
Zhao Qiqi nodded, watched them walk away, and quickly pulled Gu Yanyan aside: "What did you do to that girl?"
She could also see that Ye Shuixian was proud and arrogant, and she would never take the initiative to ask to marry Gu Dazhui.
It’s not that Gu Dazhui has grown a little fat, but he has been idle and dissolute for too long and has accomplished nothing. No girl would be willing to marry such a man.
Gu Yanyan himself was confused and said, "Mom, don't tell me you think it's weird, I think it's weird too."
"Really?" Zhao Qiqi looked at her inquiringly. "Son, if you really like her, you can tell me directly. Otherwise, they will get married, and it's a done deal. Don't regret it later."
Gu Yanyan couldn't stand his mother's gossip and teasing, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot and looked gloomy.
Zhao Qiqi: That’s it, it’s not. She’s so bored here. She finally gets a whiff of the bloody atmosphere of two men fighting over one woman, but she’s not allowed to start her imagination. It’s really boring.
"Okay, I believe you if you say so."
Seeing his mother's face full of disbelief, Gu Yanyan felt a lump of blood in his chest. What had he done to offend anyone every day?
He didn't dare to leave in front of Zhao Qiqi, and said in a frustrated tone: "Mom, I will continue to be busy with the account book."
He took the fake list made by Zhao Qiqi himself and ran away as fast as he could, disappearing from Zhao Qiqi's sight in an instant.
Narcissus
"You, what can I say to you? Why did you marry that Gu Dazhui when you could marry anyone else? Everyone in the village knows that Gu Dazhui is a lazy guy. How can you have a good life if you marry such a man?" Ye Shuixian's father was really disappointed with her. She was a thoughtful child on weekdays, so why was she so confused today?
"Anyone picked randomly from this village would be better than Gu Dazhu."
The more Ye Shuixian's father talked, the more she regretted that she had done such a reckless thing in the moment of impulse. At that time, she felt so angry that she couldn't bear it any longer.
"The same goes for the Gu family. There are many eligible women in the family. But why does Gu Yanyan, who is studying, not like him and falls for a fat boy?"
It would have been fine if Ye Shuixian hadn't heard Gu Yanyan's name, but as soon as she heard it, she felt extremely angry: "Dad, you don't have to say anything more, I'm going to marry Gu Dazhu."
Ye's father and mother didn't know what to say. They just thought that she was blinded by love.
"Forget it, forget it, I don't know what to say to you either."
It seemed that her parents didn't know what happened this afternoon, so she felt relieved.
Although Zhao Qiqi warned people not to tell anyone about what happened yesterday, many people still saw it when Gu Dazhu carried the person back.
Ye Shuixian's parents sat in the front. Old Mrs. Gu, Old Mr. Gu brought Xiang and Gu Yao, and of course, Gu Dazhu, to the Gu family to propose marriage.
As soon as Ye Shuixian's father saw Gu Dazhui, he couldn't help but snorted. He was just like a toad wanting swan meat, what a nonsense.
Yesterday he didn't know that Gu Dazhui had brought the girl back. After hearing about it this morning, he almost couldn't breathe. What an evil girl! He wondered why she was so anxious to get married. Before, when matchmakers came to propose marriage, she always made excuses and refused. Now, she has picked the worst one.
Xiang could see through the other party's attitude, and was afraid that he would not be able to hold back and say something sarcastic, so he quickly turned his head away.
With Old Madam Gu and her husband around, Dazhu shouldn't suffer any harm.
"Since there is friendship between the children, I have no choice but to come and ask for marriage on behalf of my worthless grandson."
As soon as Mrs. Gu said this, Ye Shuixian's father couldn't help but complain in his heart, knowing that his grandson was useless and yet he had the nerve to come to her house to ask for marriage.
He took a deep breath and put on a fake smile: "That's not true, old lady. Since the children are in love with each other, we, as elders, have no choice but to help them achieve their goal."
The implication was that he was indeed not satisfied with this marriage, but his daughter... He glanced at Ye Shuixian, then turned back to look at Old Lady Gu: "When do you think the wedding date should be set for them?"
In an emergency, he was a little anxious. Reputation means nothing to a man, but it is extremely important to a woman. How could he not be anxious?
Several people in the Gu family also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the other party's attitude was relatively good. They all knew that this matter was too hasty, and their own Gu Dazhu had not accomplished anything yet.
Old Madam Gu took out something and said, "Our Dazhu has good taste, and I like her from the bottom of my heart. If she marries into our family, I will definitely love her like my own daughter."
Ye Shuixian looked at the silver that Old Lady Gu took out and was a little surprised. This... twenty taels of silver?
She was quite familiar with these things. Generally speaking, three taels of silver was already a lot. Now the Gu family actually took out twenty taels of silver?
She had always set her sights on Gu Yanyan's family. She knew that they were rich, but she had never expected that Gu Dazhu's family was also so rich.
At least their family couldn't afford twenty taels of silver.
Yes, after all, they are all family, and Aunt Zhao will help out a little. If she can't marry Gu Yanyan, she will also have a good life if she marries Gu Dazhu.
Not only Ye Shuixian, her parents were also shocked. There were not many people in the village who could come up with twenty taels of silver, and this was just the betrothal gift. Their family must have a lot of silver.
Xiang was also surprised that the old lady, who had always been stingy, was willing to spend twenty taels of silver to help their Dazhu get married. She originally thought that it would be no more than five or six taels of silver. After all, the money was managed by the old lady, and she had no idea how much money the old lady had.
The betrothal gift she received back then was only one or two taels of silver.
Old Madam Gu was calm and collected, and took in everyone's reactions. "This is the betrothal gift and sincerity from our Gu family. I also promise that Narcissus will not have a hard life after marrying in. If Dazhu bullies you, just tell me."
The last sentence was said to Ye Shuixian. Old Mrs. Gu looked at her and needed her to express her opinion. After all, she knew everything that happened yesterday.
If Ye Shuixian has other intentions for marrying into the family, then it would be better not to marry the granddaughter-in-law. Even if Gu Dazhu throws a tantrum, he cannot marry her.
Ye Shuixian was burned by Mrs. Gu's gaze and shook her head in panic: "Dazhu is very good to me."
As if she wanted to prove something, or wanted to put aside other inappropriate thoughts, she smiled and added: "Don't worry, I will live a good life with Dazhu."
Learn from the past
After hearing her assurance, Mrs. Gu felt relieved. The second most feared thing in life is unrest in the home. As long as the family is harmonious and there is no one thinking of making trouble, things will definitely get better.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Gu's expression became a little more enthusiastic towards Ye Shuixian.
