Chapter 2699 Xu Ling and His Wife
Mr. Qin laughed when he heard it, nodded and said: "Yes, children can be taught."
Although Chen is in control of heaven and earth, she is afraid of death and knows how to stop at critical moments. Even if she is annoying, she is generally good.
However, Mr. Qin still told Mrs. Chen seriously: "You need to control your temper... Our status is now more valuable, and there are many people staring at us. If you don't know how to restrain yourself, you can easily be plotted by others. Then it will harm everyone, and it will also harm your own life.”
Mrs. Chen chuckled: "Look, I see what you always said, I am the most self-respecting person, and I will never take advantage of it!"
Big bargains are another story.
However, Brother Cheng smiled and took out a piece of paper: "Grandpa Qin, don't worry, the rich aunt can't harm us... This is the guarantee written by the rich uncle. If the rich uncle can't control herself and do big things, the rich uncle will This is the clan of your uncle."
What?
Mrs. Chen jumped up when she heard this and wanted to grab the guarantee letter, but Brother Cheng quickly took it away and handed it to Gu Dewang: "Brother Wang, read it to your mother."
Gu Dewang took over the reading and made Mrs. Chen cry. He went to question Gu Dafu: "Brother, you are just a brother, how can you bear to write such a letter of guarantee!"
Gu Dafu: "As long as my brothers and sisters control themselves and don't make trouble, it is just a piece of waste paper."
However, he still warned: "But if you cause trouble, I will really drive you out of the clan!"
Gu Dafu looked at Gu Dagui: "Dagui, don't blame the elder brother. The elder brother must take care of this clan leader and not let the Gu family suffer any more disasters."
The fact that his father, daughter-in-law, and 80% of his family members died when he was fleeing famine was a lifelong nightmare for him. Therefore, the richer the Gu family became, the more cautious he became, and he would not dare to make any mistakes again.
Gu Dagui hurriedly said: "Brother, don't worry, I won't blame you. If one day comes, just deal with us!"
"You!" Ms. Chen cried in anger and was about to plead for mercy and destroy the guarantee letter, but she cried too loudly and woke up Sister Xiaoyue.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Ms. Cui hurriedly coaxed her: "Sister Yue, be good and don't be afraid. Grandma will take you back to the house to sleep."
"Look at you, you've made the kids cry. Go home quickly." After Gu Dagui apologized to Mr. Qin and the others, he dragged Mrs. Chen away.
After Mrs. Chen came home, she really cried aloud, saying why her life was so miserable. Today, she failed to get a title and had her lifeline pinched!
Gu Dagui was shocked that she, an illiterate, knew the word "lifeline", but he said: "Think about the people in the old Chen family, and then think about the people who fled and died, and you still call life miserable? Your life is so good that it makes people jealous. ...We are prosperous because of the Xiaoyu family, and we enjoy the blessings of the Xiaoyu family, so just be content... If you are sleepy, I will go to bed first, and you can go to sleep after crying."
Chen was angry, but she was aware of current affairs. After realizing that crying was useless, she stopped crying and lay down to sleep after a while.
I'm so tired after walking through mountains and ridges to get home today. If I didn't come earlier, I would be really sorry for myself.
…
The Gu family quickly sent a message to their relatives, telling Brother Cheng, Mr. Qin, and Gu Dewang that they were going to the capital, so that they could come for a farewell banquet if they were free.
Relatives and old friends were about to come to congratulate Mr. Qin and Qin Sanlang for winning the title. After receiving the message, no matter how far or near they were, they all said they would come.
But because Brother Cheng had to set off on his twelfth birthday, many relatives who lived far away could not make it. However, the Gu family prepared gifts carefully. If they came from far away, they would give gifts if they could not see anyone. This trip is not in vain.
Early in the morning on November 1st, relatives and old friends came to the door. The first ones to arrive were Mr. Xu and his family. They came with three large cars and generous gifts, which can be said to be a great deal of attention.
As an in-law, Gu Dafu personally went to pick him up at the intersection of Cunwei Road: "My in-laws, it's such a cold weather for you to get old."
Mr. Xu loved Gu Dafu so much. It was a great blessing for the Xu family to be able to be in-laws with this man in this life. He hurriedly got out of the car, held Gu Dafu's hand and said, "It's not hard, the Gu family can invite us to see the Duke." Master, that is our blessing... My dear, thank you very much for allowing Xu Ling and his wife to come to the banquet."
Xu Ling got married in early September, and her husband was An Cheng, the nephew of the boss of Fucheng's Shang'an...
An Cheng is a scholar, but his knowledge is not very outstanding. Now he only has the title of Tongsheng. However, because he was born in a merchant family, he is different from other scholars. He is more transparent and a little more calm than other merchants. In short, he is a very good person. A good young man.
But when the An family first came to propose marriage, Mr. Xu did not agree immediately, because Xu Ling had always wanted to marry a rich and famous young man who could be an official in the future. However, Mr. Ouyang Hu commented on An Cheng's policy and said that he wanted to marry him. If you pass the Jinshi exam, you may have to be forty or later.
And it happened that Mr. Ji sent someone to deliver a letter at that time, saying that he wanted to marry Xu Ling for Ji Shengnong, the son of Ji Fudou, his clan nephew... Ji Shengnong had just passed the imperial examination at that time, and the son had lofty ambitions. Mr. Ji also promised to get engaged. He will give Ji Shengnong 20% of his family fortune and help him in his career.
He was also afraid that the Xu family would be displeased, so he specifically explained the reason why he would give Ji Shengnong the property... Mr. Ji's grandsons were not up to par, so he wanted to support a promising descendant of the Ji family while he was still alive, so that he could do something for the Ji family in the future. backing.
Ji Zhenniang of the Ji family also married General Xie Cheng.
Comparing the left and right, Ji Shengnong has a better future.
But Xu Ling chose An Cheng in the end!
Mr. Xu was shocked and asked her: "If you choose An Cheng, I'm afraid you won't be able to be an official's wife like Xu Zhong in this life."
Xu Lingdao: "My grandfather said before that being an official's wife is not that easy. I understand now... I can't live the life where my husband is thrown into death row, I have to take care of my children, and my home is besieged by soldiers... I You will be so scared that you will drown yourself!"
It was talking about Gu Jinan and Gu Dexing being thrown into death row.
"Let's go with An Cheng. The An family is a big businessman in Fucheng. His family can get dividends from Boss An every year. The family also has hundreds of acres of fertile land and three villages and four shops. He is also a good person. I can marry him for the rest of my life. Stability and wealth.”
Mr. Xu was very pleased: "Grandpa is very happy that you think so, but you should think about it carefully for a month before making a decision, so as not to regret it."
And a month later, Xu Ling was firm in her choice... Just because Ji Shengnong came to Tianfu County, Xu Zhaoming went to see him, and when he came back, he said that what this person needed was a virtuous wife comparable to Ouyang Ming , she can’t do it.
After Xu Ling heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and gave up his mind completely. After going to Mr. Xu to discuss his choice, the Xu An family quickly got engaged.
Because the two of them were old and this year was very uneven, the two families asked them to get married as soon as possible. Now, two months after Xu Ling got married, she returned to her parents' house to live opposite Yue, and happened to meet Duke Feng.
…
Gu Dafu said with a smile: "We are all relatives, so there is nothing to thank you for. Besides, your grandson-in-law is a good settler. He has helped Doou Bank a lot recently. Brother Wang is very grateful to him."
Neither Dou Shaodong's family nor Mr. Ouyang are here. Gu Dewang is in charge of Dou Ou Bank in Tianfu County. But Brother Wang has been helping Brother Cheng's family to pay the Lu family's accounts recently, and he has no time to arrest An Cheng. .
When An Cheng heard this, he knew that the time was right, so he brought Xu Ling over to pay homage: "My nephew and his wife are here to pay homage to the rich uncle. I wish you a happy family. You have two noble relatives, and we in He'an Mansion have grown up." Face, now everyone in the city is very grateful to your family."
After speaking, he gave Xu Ling an encouraging look.
