Chapter 291 Witnessing the Marriage
For so long, they have never paid attention to this issue.
Because the wife is not picky about food and can eat anything, the two husbands simply ignored the wife.
This is where they are incompetent. Just like now, they don't know why the wife is angry.
I'm afraid this situation doesn't exist in other homes, right?
In other families, an incompetent husband like them would have been divorced and returned to his parents' family, or he would have fallen out of favor.
If you encounter a wife with a bad temper, it is common to get beaten.
It's because the wife is too kind to them and pampers them, so they do this kind of thing.
It's all their fault. They don't know how blessed they are, and they make their wife angry.
But in just such a short time, the two of them reflected a lot.
However, Gu Chao didn't know what his two husbands were thinking.
But the attitudes and expressions of the two husbands satisfied her, and she felt a great sense of psychological satisfaction.
But, it’s time for lunch now, what else do you do?
"Let's eat."
After saying this, Gu Chao stood up and went outside.
He didn't stop when he passed by the two of them, let alone wait for them.
The two looked at each other from behind, feeling very disappointed.
Their attempt to admit their mistakes this time was obviously unsuccessful.
Moreover, the wife's attitude towards them has not changed at all.
Ah, it's not nothing at all. At least they were let in today, and they were not turned away or told to go back.
It can be considered to be somewhat effective, but we still need to keep up our efforts.
The two of them didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly followed, preparing to follow the wife to the dining room.
As soon as I walked out of the study room, I heard my wife say, "You can eat in the yard."
After saying that, he left directly without waiting for the reaction of the two people behind him.
When the wife walked away, the two of them came back to their senses and responded blankly, "Yes."
The sound was so small and soft that only they could hear it.
"My wife doesn't want us to be together, it's still my fault."
"Well, maybe the wife feels it's inconvenient to have Master Wuchen around."
Maybe, that's all they can do to comfort themselves.
"My wife didn't say what she likes to eat. Doesn't she want to eat what we cook?"
When she said this, Ning Su's eyes became misty again and her nose became sour.
"Maybe the wife feels it's getting late and doesn't want us to be tired."
After a pause, Han Yu finally found a reason, although he didn't quite believe it himself.
If it were in the past, the wife would definitely be like this, but is it still possible now?
When his brother was burned just now, he was secretly observing the wife's reaction, but the wife didn't even raise her eyelids. Isn't this obvious enough?
In the past, if the wife would not be willing to let them get hurt, she would have felt distressed for them.
The wife's wife has indeed changed, but they didn't do a good job.
After a while, Ning Su mumbled and said, "Then let's go back. It's time to eat."
There was another part of the sentence that he couldn't say out loud. If he didn't eat, his wife would feel bad and get spanked in anger.
The wife's wife has said that they are not allowed to skip meals.
Han Yu also thought of this, and his heart tightened with pain, and he almost couldn't breathe.
Gu Chao went to the front hall alone. Master Wuchen and his apprentice were guests at home, so she, the master, had to accompany him.
When I saw the two of them just now, I noticed that their eyes were blue and swollen into walnuts.
You don't need to think about it to know that you must have been awake all night and still crying.
I wonder if they cried again this morning when they woke up and found that they were not at home.
Maybe I'm just thinking wildly. That fool Su'er always likes to think wildly.
This time, I don’t know what he was thinking about?
With the two of them looking like that, it's better not to have dinner together, otherwise no one would be able to tell that they cried?
Let them eat in the yard and feel more comfortable.
When we arrived at the dining room, Widow Gu and Master Wuchen were also back, so it was time to start dinner.
Not seeing the two sons-in-law, Widow Gu asked about them. Gu Chao didn't say anything else and just said that they ate in the yard.
In fact, Widow Gu had no other meaning in asking this, so he just asked casually, thinking that since there were foreign guests, he could just eat by himself.
This kind of thing is normal in wealthy families, so he didn't think about anything else.
Wuchen was a guest and a woman, so she felt more at ease.
After dinner, Master Wuchen, his disciples, and Widow Gu all went back to take a nap, and then went out to give lectures in the afternoon.
The time in the morning was too short and it was impossible to finish the lecture. We had already agreed with the villagers that we would continue in the afternoon.
The two people in the main courtyard sat in the courtyard waiting for the wife to come back after eating.
As a result, it was Guanshi Xu who was waiting.
"Reporting to you gentlemen, the county magistrate just came to invite someone, and grandma went to the county."
If it were in the past, there would definitely be another sentence after these words, "Grandma asked the old slave to come and report to the two gentlemen that he will be back at any time, so that the two gentlemen don't have to worry."
But today, there is no such sentence.
I'm afraid the wife didn't explain it at all when she went out. This is why Manager Xu came to report it himself.
of.
The wife didn't even let them know when she was going out, and she didn't know when she was coming back.
The two of them had never felt this kind of loss, helplessness, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
"We understand, Manager Xu, go and get busy."
"yes."
After dismissing Manager Xu, the two of them sat down in the yard without thinking, but they didn't know what to do.
I don’t even know if I can wait until my wife comes home today?
It's already afternoon, and the distance from home to the county seat is not that close. It would be a bit of a rush to have a meeting.
And there's something else going on, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back.
In the past, when the wife went out and finished her work, she would rush home even in the middle of the night, for fear that they would be waiting.
Today, I'm afraid not.
After sitting there for half the afternoon, Yuzhu finally said something.
"Maybe grandma will be back after finishing her errands, or maybe grandma had a drink at the magistrate's house.
Otherwise, you two gentlemen are preparing sobering soup so that grandma can drink it when she comes back.
Well, let's make some other non-sweet sugar water. Maybe grandma will be hungry when she comes back. "
The words woke up the dreamer, and both of them became energetic after listening to Yuzhu's words.
Although their reason told them that the wife would not come back at night, they still couldn't help themselves think about it.
Maybe it's the same as what Yuzhu said. If the wife and the others are not prepared, they will be negligent.
Qiushi and the others also received Yuzhu's eyes, and they all followed suit to persuade the two masters.
"Brother Yuzhu is thoughtful. Maybe grandma is on her way back now?"
"Well, Zhengjun, let's go now. I will prepare the ingredients right now."
Finally, of course, the two of them went to the kitchen.
When I went there in the morning, I saw the wild animals that my wife had hunted in the mountains. They ate them at noon, but they couldn't taste them.
Now they saw the servants gathering together to pick up the remaining wild animals. The two of them looked at those things in a daze, thinking about the heroic appearance of their wife while hunting.
The more I think about it, the sadder I feel, missing my wife.
Magistrate Huang came to invite Gu Chao for a happy event.
More than a month ago, a cousin came over from Huang County Magistrate's hometown. The family wanted Huang Zhengjun to find a marriage for his cousin here.
This kind of thing is normal and not surprising.
After all, in Huang Zhengjun's natal family, Huang Zhengjun married the most honorably, and the people he interacted with were different from them.
Now it is human nature to want him to find a good marriage for his cousin.
Besides, they are all relatives and should help each other. If the cousin gets married, it will be a good thing for the family and him.
Relatives are like this, the closer they get, the closer they get. If it’s not those few people, they won’t cause trouble.
However, there is a big age difference between Huang Zhengjun and this cousin, and he has been married for so many years.
Therefore, the two of them didn't get to see each other much, and they only communicated through letters. Zhengzheng didn't know much about his cousin.
Now that the matter has come to him, no matter whether it succeeds or not, he must first get in touch with this cousin, and then talk about the big matter of finding a bride.
Otherwise, he is afraid that he will really get into trouble and end up not accomplishing anything good.
At that time, not only will you offend others, but you will also offend your relatives.
After more than half a month of getting along, the two of them got along fairly well, and since they had written letters in the past, they quickly became familiar with each other and understood each other.
So Huang Zhengjun often took his cousin Xi'er out to visit several familiar husbands.
It also allowed them to meet their cousin who had just turned sixteen and was quite outstanding in appearance and temperament.
It's just that this matter hasn't been settled for half a month. There are people who come to talk to me. Either Huang Zhengjun is dissatisfied or Mr. Huang is dissatisfied.
Originally, the people in my hometown entrusted such an important matter to the couple because they trusted them and to help them.
Therefore, the person must be carefully selected and not careless at all. This is a major event that will affect the rest of my cousin's life.
In the end, we finally settled on a hotel that both the couple felt quite satisfied with.
He then took the woman's portrait to show to Xi'er and told him clearly about the family's situation. Xi'er nodded with a blushing face.
"Brothers listen to their elder brothers and sisters-in-law."
So he asked the matchmaker to reply, saying that if they agreed, they could come to propose marriage on a selected day.
The date for the proposal of marriage is set for tomorrow, and then the gentleman from the bride's family will come to propose the proposal in person.
Mr. Huang would like to find someone with prestige and status to be the witness.
After thinking about it, I thought of Gu Chao.
Speaking of which, she and Gu Chao were considered relatives. If she asked Gu Chao about this matter, she would probably agree.
Not only that, but you can also ask Gu Chao to help calculate the fate of these two young people.
Therefore, I specially invited someone here today.
When Gu Chao heard that it was such a happy event, she immediately agreed. As County Magistrate Huang thought, they were related by marriage, so she would definitely not refuse.
Furthermore, after what happened last year, the two of them are already familiar and have a friendship.
Therefore, Gu Chao would not refuse even more.
"Gu just went to enjoy himself."
These were Gu Chao's exact words, and he immediately followed the boy.
However, except for Gu Chao, the Gu family’s
None of the other masters or servants knew why County Magistrate Huang was looking for her.
They all thought it was for business or something else.
It was already mid-afternoon when Gu Chao arrived at the backyard of the county government office. After talking to County Magistrate Huang, it was almost evening.
In addition, Master Huang asked her to meet the woman's person tomorrow, let's see if the two families are getting along well?
Now that they are all here, and Mr. Huang has warmly invited him, how can Gu Chao have any reason to refuse?
I stayed at Mr. Huang's place that night, but it was too late to send someone back to report the news.
Mr. Huang was also straightforward and straightforward, "Ask his servants to go to your house and tell them. If it's too late, I'll stay at your house tonight. Daoist Master Gu won't have any objections, right?"
How could Gu Chao have any objections to such a trivial matter, "I have to make a trip to my house, and then I'll rest at my house.
If Mr. Huang is willing, he can just leave the person behind. "
"Hahaha, that's it for you."
This is just a joke, Gu Chao can't really accept it, and Master Huang also knows it.
That's it, Gu Chao didn't go back, but went to the Huang Mansion to report the news.
The boy had been working hard all the way out of the county town. Even so, it was already dark when he arrived at the Gu family, and everyone in the Gu family had eaten dinner and was getting ready to go to bed.
When it was time to eat, Widow Gu directly invited Master Wuchen and his disciples to eat without waiting for Gu Chao to come back.
"Let's eat by ourselves. We don't know when Dabao will come back. This is normal. We don't have to wait for her."
Ning Su and Han Yu also ate in the main courtyard in the evening, and they were equally tasteless.
The soup and hangover soup made in the afternoon have not been used and are still simmering in the kitchen.
The two of them also sat in the yard and waited until they were invited into the house by the servant.
The masters were thinking about grandma and did not care about taking care of their own bodies. They must not forget this as servants.
Grandma is angry now. When she is over, she will definitely be angry and feel sorry for her masters.
If the masters catch a cold and get sick again, grandma can get around them.
Not only that, they themselves cannot forgive themselves.
It is their duty to serve their masters, and they must not let their masters make any mistakes.
At the end of Shen Shi, Butler Xu came in again to report.
"You two gentlemen, the servant from Mr. Huang's residence just came to convey a message. Grandma is resting at your residence tonight. You two gentlemen, please rest early."
"Did that person tell me what happened to my wife at Mr. Huang's house? When will she be back?"
As expected, the wife's wife couldn't come back. Fortunately, someone came back to send a message, and he was thinking about them.
"Back to Han Zhengjun, I heard from people in the Huang Mansion that it is a happy event for the cousin of the county magistrate Zhengjun. Tomorrow is the day of the marriage proposal, and grandma must be present."
This was what the boy said, but he was too anxious to say it clearly.
Manager Xu was also surprised at the time. Is grandma going to marry a new husband?
"My grandma agreed?"
The boy listened and nodded, "My master told Taoist Master Gu personally in the afternoon, and Taoist Master Gu immediately agreed.
Isn't this just asking the little one to come back and report the news? I'm afraid you won't know how to worry.
It was late when the little one came out, and he was afraid that he would not be able to go back in time. Director Gu even joked with the adults in my family that if he asked me to stay in the house from now on, he would never go back. "
