Chapter 300 Waiting to Be Called Daddy

"If you really don't want to, how many things have you collected from others in the past six months?

What are those things that are sent home one after another? If she doesn't wait for you in the capital, why would she come to a remote country like ours? "

Gu Chao couldn't do it at all, and was prepared to speak clearly to him once and for all, lest he continue to hang people up like this.

Widow Gu pursed his lips, but in the end did not say anything to refute. What his daughter said was the truth, even if he didn't want to admit it.

This was also the reason why he didn't curse in front of others just now. He himself felt embarrassed and couldn't curse.

"Otherwise, if the Qi family comes to propose marriage, if you think it is better than the third prince, I will agree."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gu Chao added another harsh sentence, insisting that he express his position.

People come to the door of your house. If you want to be nice, just nod. If you don’t want to be nice, just give them the right words.

In fact, Gu Chao was confident in his heart. Even if he said something he didn't want to say, his attitude had actually softened a lot. He just needed someone to give him a kick.

He really didn't feel anything at all, yet he could still go shopping and watch the theater with others, and he could still receive so many things from them, as well as the letters that came with him every time.

Speaking of which, one of his concerns was what she thought, and the other was that he was afraid that people in the village would gossip.

None of this can stop him from taking a step forward.

So now she was going to kick him in so he wouldn't keep dragging people around like this.

It's also a waste of both of their time. They are no longer in their teens or 20s, so how much time can they waste?

As soon as Widow Gu heard that his daughter wanted to agree to the Qi family, he immediately quit.

"How dare you! I don't agree!"

After yelling this sentence, he opened his mouth again, but still didn't say anything, and swallowed what he wanted to say to someone.

Although Ning Su and Han Yu didn't speak and kept teasing the children, they glanced here from time to time, mostly focusing on this side.

Seeing my father-in-law's reaction, I also felt that the third prince must be in trouble.

What the wife said was right, the father-in-law actually already had the Third Prince in his heart, but he was just too worried to admit it.

They all hope that their father-in-law can take a step forward. The third prince is really good. These days, they have all seen that the third prince treats their father-in-law with care.

And being so close, I am not afraid that my father-in-law will be wronged.

Besides, as long as the wife is here, I have nothing to fear.

It's just that his wife can say that it's hard to say anything about their son-in-law, otherwise the father-in-law will think that they can't tolerate him.

Maybe the father-in-law would think that they were whispering in the wife's ears, so the wife wanted him to get married.

Gu Chao glanced at him and said, "The third prince and the prince are coming over for dinner tonight."

After saying this, Gu Chao stopped talking and went to tease the child again, leaving the widowed husband sitting there alone, wanting to say something but unable to speak.

Finally, Widow Gu sat for a while longer, and then left unhappy.

Before leaving, he glanced at Gu Chao's back, but after all, he didn't curse.

Chunfeng and Xia Yu carefully followed their master back to the yard.

After Widow Gu returned home, he sat in front of the dressing table. After sitting for a while, he ordered the two of them to clear out all the things given by the third prince.

The two of them didn't know what the master meant, and didn't dare to ask. They just did things carefully.

The Third Prince really gave me a lot of things. Although it wasn't much each time, it was so many times that I found them all and piled them all over the house.

This doesn't include the things for eating and use, nor does it include the things in Widow Gu's dressing table.

An hour later, everything was packed out, "Master, it's all here."

Widow Gu didn't expect there to be so many. Why did he think there weren't so many?

Moreover, at this glance, he liked them all and couldn't bear to give them back.

There was also the pile of letter paper, and there were so many of them before I knew it.

Thinking of the contents of those letters, the uncontrollable expression of someone just now appeared in Widow Gu's mind. It was really mean.

But, why did he feel strange in his heart? He couldn't explain what he felt.

At this time, Xia Yu who was standing aside suddenly asked, "Master, do you want these things to be sent back to the Third Prince? And those jewelry?"

"That's all. That glass mirror is Master's favorite. Do you want to send it back too?"

Chunfeng was also chatting, and the two of them were observing the master's face while talking.

Naturally, they did not miss the reluctance in the master's eyes, and they also had their own selfish motives for saying these words.

The two of them are the ones who get along with the master the most every day. Maybe grandma and Zhengjun are not as clear about some things as they are.

Every time I receive something in the letter from Jingli, I will be in a particularly good mood that day.

Also, when you receive something particularly desirable, you should put it in a conspicuous place.

At that time, the master's eyebrows and eyes were gentler than usual, and it wasn't because of the person who sent the things.

The third prince is also a caring person. He has persisted for so long, and his feelings for the master have not changed at all.

How many women in this world can do that.

Even some grandmothers, not to mention being so affectionate, may not be so patient with their husbands.

In a few days, I don’t know if I was deceived by that little vixen again. How could I still remember the true gentleman at home?

Although there were some bad rumors about the Third Prince in the past, grandma said that the Third Prince was in very good health, so there must be some misunderstanding.

Look at the third prince, he has been clean and tidy for so many years, and there is no such dirty things in the palace. After marrying him in the future, he will definitely treat him well.

Widow Gu looked at this, then that, and finally opened the drawer of the dressing table and took out the jewelry inside one by one, as well as his favorite glazed mirror.

When I hold it in my hand, I can't bear to let it go, and I rub it gently with great reluctance.

He heard what Chunfeng and Xia Yu said, and he felt it was unpleasant at all.

After another moment of silence, Widow Gu finally said, "Put them all away."

Yes, the master has made a decision.

The two happily packed up their things, put them back into the master's small warehouse, and put them away carefully.

These are the master’s treasures and cannot be taken lightly.

In the Zhao Mansion, the prince learned that his mother had added 20% to the gifts she had prepared for the Gu family. He also heard that he was going to the Gu family for dinner in the evening, so he went to add to the gifts she had prepared.

The first time she went to Gu's house for dinner, she had to be invited by Daoist Gu. She also felt that she should leave a good impression on her future stepfather.

Speaking of which, Zhao Lin is also a child who lacks father's love.

Ever since her mother had been interested in Mr. Gu, she had also imagined that if he became her stepfather, would he treat her the same way he treated Mr. Gu? ?

After getting ready, Zhao Lin happily went to talk to his mother, but there was an even bigger surprise waiting for her.

"Mother, did Director Gu really say that?"

"Well, now everyone in the village knows that mother and I are engaged to Liu Lan."

The third prince nodded excitedly and told the story of the incident. He also lamented that happiness came so suddenly. Fortunately, she had been prepared.

After hearing this, Zhao Lin was of course happy, but he also thought that if she didn't come out to receive Uncle Liu when he came just now, would it leave a bad impression on Uncle Liu?

So, she decided to go back and ask people to add more gifts.

She had already learned how to get along with her future stepfather from her mother.

The mother and daughter here are waiting with great anticipation for the time to go faster so that they can go to the Gu family.

The Gu family is also preparing to entertain guests, but the busy ones are the servants, while the masters are still doing their own things.

In this afternoon, the news spread throughout Gujia Village that Widow Gu was going to marry the Third Prince, and the marriage had already been decided.

Some people even went to the Gu family's old house to visit, just to gossip and learn the details from the mouths of the two elders.

In fact, only the second elder knew about this matter, and the rest of the Gu family knew nothing at all.

When he said this, they were shocked, and instead asked the person what was going on and who said it.

"You don't know yet? Just now, a matchmaker from the next county came to Dabao's house to propose marriage to Liu Lan. Dabao said it himself. Is this true?"

"Yes, we just listened to what the matchmaker said, but you don't know. Otherwise, go ask Dabao to make sure."

"Yes, this is no joke. He is a prince."

The eldest sister of the Gu family really wanted to ask Gu Chao, but this happened so suddenly that they were unsure.

The old lady knocked the cigarette stick in her hand, coughed twice, and then said, "This is indeed true."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at the old lady. Seeing her serious expression, they felt that she was not joking, so they went to look at the old man again.

Sure enough, the old man looked the same way. Is this true?

"We'll invite everyone over for a wedding drink then. It'll be lively."

As soon as the old lady said this, it was obvious that she couldn't be more certain. It seemed to be correct.

"Liu Lan has been in our Gu family for many years. Although it is a bit inappropriate to compromise his moral character, it is not easy for him as a widower to pull Dabao. It is also for Dabao.

There is nothing wrong with taking this step now. Just treat it as our Gu family's son marrying, and the Gu family will also be his natal family in the future. "

The old man also expressed his attitude. This is a certainty and cannot be wrong.

The rest of the Gu family didn't speak. They hadn't digested the big news yet and needed some time.

After sending the people in the village out, the village chief and several clan elders came again after a while.

It was obvious that they had made an appointment to come, and they knew why they were there.

The Gu family understood what the two elders meant, and thought of what the old man said, they had no other opinions.

Of course, it is the second elder who makes the decision on this matter. Even if they are the third brother-in-law's sister and brother-in-law, they have no right to make this decision for him.

Besides, Dabao agreed, what else could they say?

The other party's identity and character are more than enough for the third brother-in-law. When compared, the third brother-in-law has the advantage.

Sure enough, the village chief and clan elders made their purpose clear as soon as they sat down.

"Is the story about the old third husband true?"

They had already discussed this matter before coming. It was not impossible for a widower to remarry, but widower Gu was not an ordinary widower.

He is Gu Chao's father, can he be like others?

Also, the person he remarried was a relative of the emperor, so he was no joke.

Seeing the old lady nodding, they fell silent.

For their Gujia Village and their Gujia clan, this matter has more advantages than disadvantages.

Liu Lan married from their Gu family, and their Gu family became Liu Lan's natal family.

As for those subtle things, no one said it explicitly, just understood in their hearts.

When we were about to talk about this matter, only the Liu family didn't know about it, and we had to find a time to come and talk to them properly.

This person still needs to grow old, and no one else is suitable.

But we have to discuss it with Gu Chao so that we don't get it wrong when the time comes.

When the time came, the third prince took the prince to the door of the Gu family. The gifts he brought were all delivered by seven or eight young men, which also kept Manager Xu busy for a while.

She didn't expect that the third prince would give such a generous gift. When Gu Chao found out, he just asked her to put it away.

So, if there is anything that Manager Xu doesn't understand, go down and do it.

Widow Gu had a dark face and never said a word from the beginning to the end. Gu Chao and Ning Su Han Yu were entertaining the third prince and his daughter.

The third prince saw that his sweetheart had a bad look on his face, and at first he was thinking about what he was doing.

But she reacted immediately after seeing Gu Chao's attitude, which made her feel even more happy. It seemed that the matter between her and Liu Lan was settled.

It was really hard for Zhao Lin. He ate every meal with fear. He looked at Uncle Liu and then at his mother, still worried about her.

Her worries did not dissipate until she came out of Gu's house.

"Mom, I see Uncle Liu is unhappy."

As a result, her mother gave her a big smile and patted her on the shoulder, "You silly kid, you still need to practice.

Your Uncle Liu has agreed, just wait and call him daddy, hahaha..."

Hearing this, Zhao Lin was even more confused. Why did he just agree? He obviously had a dark face, but I never saw him say a word.

Seeing his daughter's confused look, the third prince decided to let his daughter have more contact with Gu Chao in the future, so that he could learn from her sister's shrewdness and stability.

This child has been exposed to too few people and things since he was a child, so he is so simple.

It's also because of her health, alas...

But now she is getting better, her health is getting better day by day, and she no longer has to go out as before.

Gu Chao is one year older than Zhao Lin. When they become a family, she will become the elder sister. It is a good time for her to learn from Gu Chao.

Widow Gu returned to his yard after dinner, but he still didn't say a word to his daughter and son-in-law. Anyway, he was just holding back the feeling in his heart that he couldn't express.

When he returned to the yard, he didn't want Chunfeng and the others to wait on him. He went to the room where his wife's spiritual tablet was enshrined and didn't come out until midnight.

The next day, the old lady came to Gu's house, told Gu Chao about the matter, and asked her to go to Liu's house with her.

Originally, Gu Chao planned to go there in the next two days, and his elders must know about such a big matter.
