Chapter 115 Low-Key Marriage
Hearing Uncle Wei say that the marriage between brother and sister Gu was settled, Lu Lingxi was also very happy. He had been sitting quietly, but now he couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and said, "Really? Brother and sister Gu's marriage is settled now? Didn't you say before that we had to wait for a while?"
Uncle Wei: "I don't know about this. Yesterday, Prime Minister Gu suddenly came to our house. The master and the young master didn't know about it beforehand. At first, the master was still displeased with Prime Minister Gu because the last marriage was not agreed upon, and he didn't want to pay attention to him. Later, when he heard that Prime Minister Gu came to discuss marriage, he immediately became enthusiastic and treated him with good wine and food. After getting drunk, he even called him brother and was as affectionate as brothers."
Uncle Wei can't help laughing when he thinks of that scene now.
"It's good that they can get married. It's good that they can get married. Brother must be very happy that he drank too much. I'll go see if he's feeling better." After saying this, Lu Lingxi went straight to Lu Yugang's yard.
Uncle Wei wanted to stop her and said hurriedly: "Miss, there is no need for you to worry. Someone will take care of the young master..." But before he could finish his words, Lu Lingxi had already run away. He probably didn't hear what he said.
Uncle Wei turned around and saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still there. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness. The young lady was a little impatient."
Nan Wangyu said indifferently: "It's okay, Uncle Wei, I know Lingxi's personality. I knew it when I was at the mansion before. She is very good this way."
Uncle Wei felt a little stressed at the moment. What was going on? It was fine that the Crown Prince accompanied the young lady back home, and no one from the host family went out to greet him, but now the young lady has left the Crown Prince alone. Would the Crown Prince think that our mansion was deliberately making trouble for him?
Now he was the only old servant left, but he still had to be polite, so Uncle Wei bowed slightly and asked nervously, "What kind of tea does Your Highness like? I'll have the servants prepare it for you right away."
Nan Wangyu noticed Uncle Wei's nervousness and said to comfort him, "Uncle Wei, don't be nervous. Just treat me the same way as when I stayed at your house before."
Uncle Wei quickly agreed and asked someone to find Gu An to prepare tea and snacks for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Gu An was also very quick. In less than a quarter of an hour, he served tea and snacks. While they were serving, Uncle Wei said, "I'll go and tell the master to get up."
Nan Wangyu: "No. I feel uncomfortable when I'm drunk. Anyway, there's nothing important. Let my father-in-law sleep a little longer. I'll sit here for a while. If I'm really bored, I can walk around the yard. I'm quite familiar with this place. If that doesn't work, I can just go find Lingxi."
Uncle Wei: “Yes!”
After Lu Lingxi left the main hall, he ran to the gate of Lu Yugang's yard in a short while. Chunhong and Liulu chased after him, but they couldn't catch up with him.
When Chunhong and Liulu were about to follow Lu Yugang into his bedroom, they heard Lu Lingxi's surprised voice in the inner room and thought, "Sister Gu, why are you here?" Hearing this, they knew that the master and the mistress were going to have a private conversation, so they did not follow him in, but waited at the door, just in case there were any instructions to hear in time.
After Lu Lingxi said this, he realized that he had asked unnecessary questions. It was reasonable for the future sister-in-law to take care of the drunk brother. And there was a sober person here, so it was much easier to find out how they agreed on the marriage last night, so Lu Lingxi hurried forward to talk to Gu Yaner.
Lu Lingxi's voice was a little loud just now, so Gu Yan'er immediately made a gesture to keep quiet and pointed outside, indicating that she should go talk outside.
Lu Lingxi nodded obediently and went to sit at the table outside with Gu Yan'er.
After sitting down, Gu Yan'er explained, "Your brother probably drank for the first time yesterday, and he was a little too happy. He drank too much and felt very uncomfortable. He vomited several times during the night and just fell asleep. I was afraid that talking in the inner room would wake him up again."
Lu Lingxi nodded to show her understanding, and then couldn't wait to ask: "Sister Gu, your marriage with my brother is really settled, is there any problem?"
Speaking of marriage, Gu Yan'er was still an unmarried girl after all, so she shyly lowered her head and said "hmm".
"I remember you said not long ago that your father said we should wait for a while. Why did you suddenly change your mind now?"
Lu Lingxi was a little puzzled. She thought that waiting for a period of time would be half a year, a year or several years, but she didn't expect it would be less than a month.
"Dad said that now that the King of Qi has an eldest grandson, he should be the first in everything and there is no need to worry about other things. It is time to quietly arrange the marriage, without making a big fuss, just have a simple meal, write my name on the Lu family tree, and the marriage will be done. Dad must love me in his heart. He came to my yard to see me several times. He saw me sitting in a daze from a distance. He might have seen that I was uneasy, so he didn't call me, but sighed and turned away. But I know he went to see me several times. Maybe he was afraid that I would be sick like before if I stayed like this all day, so he came up with the idea of keeping everything simple for the wedding."
Lu Lingxi nodded and said, "Yes, yes, after all, he is your biological father, and he loves you no matter what. It's just that I have wronged you. Getting married is a once-in-a-lifetime event. It should have been a grand ceremony with a red wedding dress and drums and gongs to welcome you home. But now it has to be done carefully and quietly."
"I am not wronged. I am already very satisfied to marry your brother. Moreover, the current situation cannot be blamed on others. It is our family that caused the trouble. The ones who are really wronged should be your brother and the Zhenguo Marquisate. Marrying a daughter-in-law should be a grand event with infinite glory. I didn't expect that because of me, it could only be done secretly like a thief."
After saying this, Gu Yan'er was almost in tears. She really felt that it was her fault, but she also felt that she would be very happy to marry Lu Yugang, and she was unwilling to let go.
Lu Lingxi quickly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't cry. If my brother sees you, he will think I bullied you and beat me up. What if I do?"
Gu Yan'er was so amused by Lu Lingxi that she burst into laughter: "Your brother has always been very kind to you, how could he bear to beat you?"
Lu Lingxi sat up straight, folded his hands in front of his chest, and said proudly: "That's not necessarily true, you are his wife. As the saying goes, when you have a wife, you forget your mother. If he can forget his mother, how much more so his sister?"
Gu Yan'er called out in a reproachful tone: "Lingxi! What nonsense are you talking about!" and gently pushed Lu Lingxi.
Lu Lingxi looked at Gu Yan'er's shy appearance and laughed out loud "Hahahaha" for a moment. Gu Yan'er quickly stopped her, and she quickly stopped laughing.
Then he said, "Let's get back to the point. When is your wedding date? Although it can't be a grand ceremony, as your younger sister, I should be qualified to be there, right?"
Gu Yan'er smiled dotingly, "February 15th. Of course, no matter how concise it is, you can't be missed."
"February 15th, doesn't that mean you still have less than a month to prepare? Is it in time? Do you still want to embroider your wedding dress yourself?"
"It's still in time. I used to embroider a wedding dress, and it's almost finished. But my mother said that since the people have changed, the wedding dress can't be an old one. Let's ask outside embroiderers to do it, and find a few more. It will be in time."
Lu Lingxi nodded with relief: "It's good that we made it in time. I would like to wish my sister-in-law and brother a long and happy marriage! May you have a baby soon!"
Gu Yan'er was very happy at this moment, so she said generously: "Then I will accept your good words!"
Lu Lingxi couldn't help but sigh in his heart at this moment, the ideas of Prime Minister Gu's family are too avant-garde compared to most people nowadays: Mrs. Qin supports her daughter's free love; Prime Minister Gu doesn't care about face, accepts his daughter's wedding is not a big deal, and does not prevent his daughter from marrying into the family of a political enemy because of his own grudges. They deserve a thumbs-up.
