MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 5

Liu Yuru took the box of rouge, and it took a long time to react.

The girls in the store were busy choosing rouge, but no one noticed Gu Jiusi's conversation with her. Yin Hong also went to pick a box of rouge. , smiled and said, "Miss, don't you choose another box?"

"Hmm."

Liu Yuru lowered her eyes. Now the girls in the store are picking rouge.

She quietly put the rouge in her sleeve, went up to pick a few boxes, the shopkeeper looked at her, smiled and said: "Miss Liu, Gu Gongzi has this temper, don't mind, he He has always been a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted man. It must have been your brother who beat him in the casino. He came to you to vent his anger, just bear with it. It's nothing. You see, when he got angry, he bought happiness with money. ."

"What you said is." Liu Yuru sighed, "Let my sister see a joke."

Liu Yuru was carrying rouge in the shop, Gu Jiusi went back to the casino to continue gambling. The conversation between the two was quickly passed back to the Gu family. Gu Langhua was scolding Gu Jiusi with his wife in the hall, and he said angrily: "This little **** doesn't know what to do, why does he think I am betrothing him? I'm not afraid that his uncle will drag him to the palace to recommend him, he has grown up In this way, if any princess really likes it, can he bear it?"

"Don't be mad."

Mrs. Gu Jiang Rou sighed: "Jiusi is right, after all, it's his marriage, he has to find someone he likes. You are so foolish to betrothed to him, pick one you don't like People, it's not right after all."

"Then what is appropriate? Is it appropriate to go to Princess Shang?!"

The two were arguing, and the housekeeper hurried over from outside.

"Master! Madam!" The butler said happily, "I found it!"

"What are you looking for?" Gu Langhua and Jiang Rou were both a little strange, the butler said happily, "Young master's favorite!"

Hearing this, Jiang Rou spoke up first, raising her voice: "Jiusi has a crush?! Why doesn't he tell us?"

Compared to Jiang Rou, Gu Langhua was more calm, and said first, "How do you know that Jiu Si is interested?"

I sent someone to find out, she is a girl from a good family, she has a good temperament, and looks a little ordinary, but it is not bad. But marry a wife and a virtuous man, and the young master likes it, that is the most important thing."

"The housekeeper is right." Jiang Rou came to her senses and hurriedly said, "Then you hurry up and prepare, and then inquire about the girl's situation. If it is a good girl, I will come to the door with the master tomorrow. Propose marriage."

The housekeeper was instructed and quickly retreated. Gu Langhua recalled the housekeeper's words just now, turned his head and said to Jiang Ju: "Madam, how you look at this is a bit strange."

"It's strange," Jiang Rou sighed, "Jiusi has always told me everything, but now there is a girl I like, but she has never mentioned it to me, she is still such an ordinary girl, they How did you meet?"

Gu Langhua didn't say anything, he pondered carefully, thought about it, he said to Jiang Judao, "Don't mention it to Jiusi first. Anyway, this girl is the one who said it is not her. If you don't want to marry, let's settle the marriage first, and we mustn't let him make a fuss this time."

"This..." Jiang Rou hesitated, "It's not good to say that it's so important to propose a kiss... not good?"

"It's okay." Gu Langhua waved his hand, "If you drag it on, it will be too late when your brother proposes to let Jiusi enter the capital."

Hearing this, Jiang Rou understood. Gu Langhua didn't want to worry about why Gu Jiusi said this. In short, Gu Jiusi said this, and then he would have a reason to fight with his son.

Liu Yuru is a native of Yangzhou, her past is ordinary, she is a standard lady. The housekeeper came back the next day with the portrait and Liu Yuru's life. The Gu family and his wife were very satisfied. For their unreliable son, they felt that it was better to find such a reliable girl.

"But there is a rumor," the housekeeper hesitated for a moment, but then said it, "I heard that the old lady of the Ye family wanted Miss Liu for ten minutes, and the marriage between the two families was probably decided in private. ."

Hearing this, Jiang Rou became anxious: "Is that a decision?"

"No." The housekeeper hurriedly said, "It's all rumors."

If it is not decided, it should be the Liu family's choice."

The housekeeper understood what Gu Langhua meant, and the next day he and Jiang Rou drew up a list of dowry gifts, and led them directly to the gate of the Liu family.

When the Gu couple came to Liu Yuru's house, Liu Yuru was still taking care of Su Wan in the house.

Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua came over, but no one thought that they were here to propose marriage, so Liu Xuan did not call Liu Yuru out.

The Gu family has a big business in Yangzhou, Zhang Yueer and Liu Xuan are a little nervous, while trying to figure out Gu Langhua's intentions, while chatting with Gu Langhua, after chatting for a while, Gu Langhua said with a smile: "Some time ago I heard that there is a happy event in your house, and it seems that Miss Liu and the Ye family have engaged, but is there such a thing?"

After hearing this, Liu Xuan and Zhang Yueer looked at each other, Zhang Yueer's mind became active, and she instantly understood Gu Langhua's intention.

She said how the Gu family came to the door today, it turned out to be for Liu Yuru.

Liu Yuru is Su Wan's daughter, Zhang Yue'er has never liked her very much, but she has a decent face. She saw Liu Yuru's management of her marriage, and understood that Liu Yuru wanted to marry a good family.

She married a good family, and the betrothal gifts were large. The betrothal gifts entered the gate of the Liu family, and they were reserved for her son in the future, so Zhang Yueer was also happy to let Liu Yuru run the business. Satisfied, the Ye family's betrothal gift was expensive, so she hurried to marry Liu Yuru. But compared to the Gu family, what is the Ye family's net worth?

Zhang Yueer thought about it very quickly, when Liu Xuan hesitated, she laughed and said: "These are all rumors, we Yueru and the eldest miss of the Ye family are close friends, so we go with the Ye family It's closer, but the marriage has never been mentioned. Now that the eldest son of the Ye family is still taking the exam, where is the time to talk about this?"

Liu Xuan was a little disturbed when he heard Zhang Yueer open his eyes and talk nonsense, but he had already said it, and he couldn't refute Zhang Yueer's face, so he could only nod and say, "I have never been engaged."

Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua looked at each other, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, Jiang Rou didn't turn around, she said straight to the point: "To be honest, we came here today to help Xiaoer Jiu. I want to marry Miss Liu."

As she spoke, Jiang Rou complimented Liu Yuru and Gu Jiusi again, and finally said the point, waved with the maid next to her, turned her head and said to Liu Xuan: " Our Gu family are straightforward people, and we have to be sincere in everything we do. If the two of you agree, this is the gift list for the Gu family's employment. , we can do it, we will do it.”

Hearing this, Zhang Yueer's eyes lit up, she smiled and watched Liu Xuan take the gift list. The gift list is already amazing in terms of length, and the amount in it is even a huge amount for ordinary merchants like the Liu family. Zhang Yue'er looked at Liu Xuan's expression, even though Liu Xuan tried his best to pretend to be calm, his eyes still betrayed him. So Zhang Yue'er had a number in her heart.

Liu Xuan read the gift list and handed it to Zhang Yueer. Zhang Yueer looked at the amount above, and even had difficulty breathing, but she still coughed lightly, pretending to be sorry: "Although I'm not Yuru's biological mother, but Yuru is our daughter-in-law, and I take it as my own daughter. Money is not the most important thing. The most important thing is whether Mr. Gu is sincere."

Before Jiang Rou came, she had already touched the Liu family thoroughly. Naturally, she knew very well what kind of person Zhang Yueer was. She understood what the so-called "sincerity" was. She glanced at Gu Langhua and smiled. Leo smiled and said: "Our family is not good at speaking, and we can't say anything, so we can only use gold and silver to express our sincerity, but we never mean to humiliate the young lady. In this life, only real things can It's in your hand, don't you think?"

"That's it," Gu Langhua coughed lightly, "We still have five shops on East Street, all of which are included in this betrothal gift, what do you think?"

East Street is the most prosperous street in Yangzhou City, one shop is worth a lot, let alone five!

Even if it's a Gu family, this is a lot of money.

Zhang Yue'er knew that she would take it when she saw it, she glanced at Liu Xuan, and said with suppressed excitement: "Master, Young Master Gu is a young talent, and it is a blessing for Yuru to see Yuru. , do you see?"

Liu Xuan listened to Zhang Yueer's words, his eyes fell on the gift list, while he was worried about Liu Yuru's future, he was reluctant to bear these real money.

He struggled for a long time, and finally said: "Dare to ask, what does Young Master Gu think of this marriage?"

Although Gu Jiusi...Although it is absurd, but whether a woman is alive or not, what matters is whether the man likes her or not.

Hearing this, Jiang Rou laughed: "If it wasn't for my son's admiration for Miss Liu, how could we have been so troublesome?"

Liu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and he said that people like the Gu family should go to the Liu family first, even if they marry lowly.

Liu Xuan laughed, he was about to ask Liu Yuru when he heard Zhang Yue'er say: "That is a match made in heaven, Yue Lao has appointed a good marriage! We Yuru have said it before. , Young Master Gu is handsome and warm-hearted, he is a rare good man!"

Liu Xuan's expression changed, but Jiang Rou then took over the words: "Did Miss Liu really say that?"

"That's great," Jiang Rou turned her head to look at Liu Xuan, "Master Liu, then tomorrow we will come to make a formal appointment, so that's it, right?"

Liu Xuan was sung by the two of them, and he couldn't object anymore. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that the matter of marriage was originally the word of his parents' matchmaker. Liu Yuru has always been gentle and well-behaved. Whether it is marrying Ye Shian or Gu Jiusi, it should make no difference to her.

So Liu Xuan nodded and said with a smile, "Then Liu will be waiting for you two tomorrow."

Liu Xuan got up, and after sending off Gu Langhua and Jiang Rou with Zhang Yueer, Liu Xuan sighed, turned around and said, "Go talk to Yuru about this, you girls say these things , and more convenient."

Zhang Yue'er smiled in response, raised her hand to hold Liu Xuan's hand, and said with Liu Xuan: "Don't worry, sir, people like the Gu family are much better than the Ye family, the Ye family has more rules, the Gu family People are easy to talk, and the family has power and power, and only Gu Jiusi has an only son. Although Gu Jiusi has a ridiculous temperament, how can there be a perfect person in this world? As long as Gu Jiusi likes our family Yueru, Yueru can live well."

"You're right." Liu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, "You're still thoughtful."

"Don't worry, I'll go talk to Yuru," Zhang Yue'er said gently, "Yuru is young and such a big decision as a marriage should be made to look good on her. "

Zhang Yueer comforted Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan was relieved, and went back to business. After Liu Xuan left, Zhang Yueer recruited people to inquire about Liu Yuru and Gu Jiusi, and then heard about Rouge Shop.

Zhang Yue'er laughed when she heard it, she sat on the chair and said to the maid next to her: "Su Wan is incompetent, but her daughter is a recruiter. Okay, you can take this excuse and go over there. , told her that she behaved in disorder, she was banned for half a month, and the marriage was decided first. Let the servants take care of it. If anyone let her know about it before the engagement, I would sell it to him! "

The maid understands that Zhang Yueer is really moving, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, no one will break your mouth."

Zhang Yue'er nodded, thought about it, and then said: "Speak nicely, she is still waiting for Ye Shian to come back and get married, you can coax her more, and wait for the marriage with the Gu family to be settled. , I will persuade her again."

"Understood." The maid said with a smile, "Don't worry, this slave will definitely handle things properly. After all, she is the future Young Master Gu and will not offend you."

"It's a pity," Zhang Yueer sighed, "I don't have a suitable daughter to marry, Xueer is too young, otherwise, the Ye family is not bad."

"This Liu Yuru," Zhang Yue'er looked down at the gift list and sneered, "It's really valuable."
