MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 245 Fengqiuhuang

Chapter 245: Phoenix Seeking Phoenix

"Mr. Guo, have you mobilized all the troops? Please come in."

Mrs. Gu and the two elders of the Guo family have been friends for many years, so she said it with a hint of ridicule.

Mrs. Guo couldn't help but chuckle when she saw this, and even gave her husband a teasing look.

Prime Minister Guo also looked at Xue Niang with relief. This child really looked more and more like Yun He back then.

 Then Aiwujiwu said loudly.

“My truth is, today I have come to the General’s Mansion on behalf of my grandson Shiro to ask for marriage to the merchant’s eighth lady, Xue Niang. I also ask Mrs. Gu to grant her permission.”

His words made Xue Niang feel shy.

Hide delicately behind Mrs. Gu's back, and you can see her daughter's attitude at first glance.

Who among the people in the General's Mansion felt like laughing after seeing this, but they still held it back.

Mrs. Gu waved her hand and said to Prime Minister Guo.

 “Let’s discuss it later in the government, hurry up.”

Seeing this, Prime Minister Guo also understood what Mrs. Gu meant, and then smiled and said to the people at home.

 “Let’s go.”

"yes."

A group of people from Wuyangyang entered the general's mansion again.

 The good show was interrupted in this way, and the people watching the excitement were only half-informed and were still thinking about it.

 The front hall of the mansion is also full of people at this moment.

Mrs. Gu and Mr. Guo sat at the top, Shang Ji and Mrs. Guo sat opposite each other, and they went down one by one. There was no mistake in the rules.

Shang Xueniang stood next to Mrs. Gu, nodding slightly. If you look carefully, you can see that there are still two blushes on her face, obviously she is still shy from just now.

So Mrs. Guo came out and interrupted.

“The old man likes to make children laugh, sister, don’t mind it, we like Xue Niang ten thousand times, so you can make two children happy.”

After saying that, he shouted to Guo Jia Silang.

He stood tall, walked to Mrs. Gu and Prime Minister Guo, knelt down and spoke loudly.

"My son is Yong, the grandson of the Guo family. He is on the fourth line. His two brothers and one sister are married. He is now twenty and serving in the Ministry of War. I came to your house today because I am the eighth young lady I like. I have prepared a small gift for you. Please take care of me. The old lady accepts it with a smile, and hopes that the two families can become friends of Qin and Jin and come and go frequently."

He was quite straightforward. His words about the eighth lady he admired completely outweighed the gentleness, quietness, and knowledge that he often used when asking to marry a noble lady.

Shang Ji was also happy after hearing this, and his sister-in-law Liu even shed tears at the side.

Mrs. Gu looked at Guo Jia Silang who was kneeling below, and felt very emotional in her heart. In the past, the two families had a chance to get married to Qin and Jin, but things were unpredictable.

 So, she approved from the bottom of her heart that this marriage could happen today.

So he didn’t waste any more nonsense and said to the Guo family.

“Xue Niang is my old lady’s only granddaughter. You must treat her well. If not, not to mention Shao Yu, even my old lady will come to seek justice for her in person. Do you understand?”

 “Zi Yongding loves Miss Eighth wholeheartedly and will not cause her any grievance!”

When Guo Jiasilang said this, Mrs. Guo San also said reassuringly from the side.

"Don't worry, old lady, I'm watching over you. If he dares to do anything, I'll beat his legs!" From the Guo family to the grandparents, parents-in-law, and husband-in-law, they all made up their mind to treat him well. Everyone can see this.

So Mrs. Gu stopped being pretentious, took Xue Niang's hand and said.

“Then your grandma will take care of this marriage for you?”

Although Xue Niang was shy, she was not opposed to marrying into the Guo family, so she paused for a moment and nodded in agreement.

 At this point, the faces of Prime Minister Guo and Mrs. Guo became much better.

Everyone present also followed the banquet with smiles.

Gu Xiaolang stood in an inconspicuous position and looked at the scene in front of him with a lot of envy in his heart.

The Guo family originally wanted her to marry him. Everyone in the Gu family knew this, but they still refused because of her thoughts.

Now that she sees Guo Jiashiro and Xue Niang succeeding, she feels happy but at the same time, she can't help but feel hesitant about her future. What will she be like in the future?

Xing Zhao noticed her thoughts, moved two steps, and whispered into her ear.

"Don't be afraid. When you return to Jinling City, my cousin will find someone for you, and it won't be worse than Guo Silang."

Gu Xiaolang was so amused by his gag words that she almost stopped laughing. Although there was some anger in her eyes, she knew that Xing Zhao was doing it for her own good, so she said it in a low voice.

 “Thank you, cousin.”

Xing Zhao saw that her mood was better than before, so he didn't say anything more.

 Everyone still started discussing the marriage between Guo Jiasilang and Shang Xuanniang.

Or else the Guo family was in a hurry, so even though they brought a matchmaker, the matchmaker couldn't get a word in, and Prime Minister Guo and Mrs. Guo finished everything.

 Exchanging Geng and Tie was the second best thing, but I talked about a few good days at the beginning.

 Some are at the end of this year, and some are at the beginning of next year. Anyway, the date is not too close or too far, and it is enough for the two families to get married happily.

Mrs. Gu, on the other hand, was a little dumbfounded and joked to Mrs. Guo.

"You are too anxious, isn't it, that it will take some time?"

　　It can still be saved to accept and ask about the name. After all, the two families know the details and will not delay much. However, Najib has not yet made a decision, so they went directly to ask for his hand in marriage, which was too fast.

Who knew that Madam Guo was more direct.

"If I weren't afraid of others gossiping, I would have given the betrothal gift today. Don't worry, after all, my granddaughter is still young, but look at our family. She is already twenty. If we don't start a family, What words!"

  She said this with a smile, but Guo Jiashiro didn't care, he was thick-skinned anyway.

When Mrs. Gu saw this, she couldn't shirk it. Originally, they were the ones who started this marriage. If they continue to do such pedantic things, I'm afraid it won't be good for Xue Niang in the future.

 So I chose March 3 next year.

The peach blossoms were blooming and the garden was full of spring. It was a good time to get married. Moreover, Xue Niang was also seventeen years old at that time, and Guo Jiashiro had not yet celebrated his birthday, so the gap between the two could be considered to be one year younger. , couldn’t be more appropriate.

Seeing this, the Guo family also agreed.

March 3rd is now a full year away. Du Jingyi initially imagined that it might take about two years before she gets married, so preparing things for her is time-consuming and expensive. Now it seems that they have to let them Just hold on tighter.

The two families have also agreed to pay the betrothal gift at the end of the month. At this point, the matchmaker is useless, but the red envelope given by the Guo family is thick enough, so she is happy to save the trouble.
