Chapter 417 Keep it simple

Li Jiaojiao arrived at the yard where Gu Han lived in one breath.

When I entered the door, I saw Gu Han sitting on the ground drinking.

Li Jiaojiao was so angry that she grabbed him and said, "Stop drinking. Let's go! Quick!"

Gu Han had just drunk a pot of wine and was not drunk yet. He pushed her away and said, "Leave? Where are we going? To the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion to be bullied?"

As soon as Gu Han saw her, he remembered what Old Madam Gu said at the inn.

If Jiaojiao hadn't suddenly spoken out loud, or even if he had a limp, his grandmother wouldn't have changed him.

The position of the crown prince should have been his...

But because of Jiaojiao...

He told himself that Jiaojiao didn't mean it. Jiaojiao was just too simple and naive, thinking that she didn't need to be on guard against her grandmother...

But there was a thorn in my heart.

This thorn made it difficult for him to face Li Jiaojiao.

Li Jiaojiao said angrily, "What else? Do you plan to stay in the Duke's Mansion for the rest of your life? What can you do if you stay? Be a servant, or continue to be a master with free food and drink?"

As Gu Han listened to her words, his face turned pale and blue.

Yeah, where else can he go now?

Thinking about this, he was filled with sorrow. Why, in such a big world, there was no place for him...

Li Jiaojiao held his hand tightly: "Let's go! Let's leave the Duke's Mansion together and go back to the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion."

Gu Han was stunned: "Jiaojiao...you, you are still willing to follow me? I have lost my position as a prince, and I have lost my position as a marquis...I can't give you a noble status."

Li Jiaojiao was so anxious that she was about to break out in a cold sweat.

Compared with these, she was more afraid of being skinned alive by the people from the Duke Ping's Mansion.

Li Jiaojiao said: "Am I that kind of person? When you were still a beggar, did I ever despise you?"

"We've been through so much together, from being abducted in a small mountain village to now... Haven't we pledged our love to each other long ago? And we've already signed a marriage certificate, so we're husband and wife!"

Gu Han was deeply moved. He didn't expect that she was so loving and loyal to him and would never leave him.

The thorn in his heart towards Li Jiaojiao didn't seem to hurt as much anymore.

He hugged her tightly and said, "Jiaojiao... For me, you are willing to leave the Duke of Ping's Mansion, a wealthy family?"

Li Jiaojiao: “…”

If we don't leave now, this place will become a fire pit.

Gu Han said: "Jiaojiao, you are all I have now... I have lost everything, but at least I still have you!"

Li Jiaojiao was so anxious that she wanted to slap him, but she didn't dare to, and hurriedly said, "Let's go now."

Gu Han said: "Okay... let's go together, but... I don't want to go back to Ningguo Marquis Mansion..."

Li Jiaojiao almost vomited blood: "If we don't go back, where will we live? Are you planning to give up even half of the family property? The title is gone, are you going to give even the family property that you deserve to Gu Shao?"

Gu Han's face turned pale, full of unwillingness. Yes, Gu Shao couldn't get away with it.

Li Jiaojiao: "No matter what, let's go back first. You stay here and I'll have someone pack up outside."

After saying that, Li Jiaojiao hurried out.

Fortunately, this incident happened suddenly, and the wife of Duke Ping had been in control of the Duke's Mansion for many years.

Lady Pingguo called another capable nanny and asked her to bring people to help Li Jiaojiao to quietly transport the two carts of dowry out.

Afterwards, Li Jiaojiao took Gu Han into the carriage and hurriedly left the Duke Ping's Mansion.

Gu Han opened the curtains and looked at the gate of the Duke Ping's Mansion gradually moving away. He always felt that the atmosphere in the mansion was weird.

Gu Han said, "By the way, when we just came back, did Xiaolu say anything? Who sold what?"

He was in a daze at the time and didn't hear clearly what they were saying.

Li Jiaojiao's face turned pale. "I'm not too sure about this. It seems that Liu Xiawei owed gambling debts or something. Anyway, my father asked you to leave. I was afraid that we couldn't be together in the future, so I wanted to go with you."

Gu Han gritted his teeth and said, "I understand. I failed to regain the title of Marquis, and Duke Ping despised me. Jiaojiao... I'm sorry for wronging you..."

"I... don't feel wronged."

Soon, the two arrived at the Ningguo Marquis Mansion.

The two men stood in front of the gate and asked the servants to go in and report.

After a while, Madam Gu came out with her servants to greet them. She looked at Gu Han with red eyes:

"Didn't your grandmother say she would pick you up tomorrow? Why did you suddenly come here by yourself?"

Gu Han's self-esteem was hurt: "I can't come back by myself?"

Madam Gu was anxious: "No, no... Grandma didn't mean that. Hey, why is Jiaojiao here too?"

Li Jiaojiao said: "Gu Han and I have already signed the marriage certificate. He is my husband, and as his wife, I naturally have to go with him."

Madam Gu was startled. "Even if we have written a marriage certificate, we still have to hold a wedding, right? She will marry out of the Duke of Ping's mansion. Now she follows me here for no apparent reason... isn't that a bit against the rules?"

Gu Han immediately stopped in front of Li Jiaojiao and said, "Let me be frank. Duke Ping doesn't like me. He doesn't agree with Jiaojiao marrying me. Fortunately, Jiaojiao and I had already signed the marriage certificate, and she has always been loyal to me. That's why she came back with me. Grandmother, do you not welcome me?"

Li Jiaojiao's face turned pale and she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

Why do some misunderstandings suddenly seem to have arisen?

When the incident at the Duke Ping's Mansion is exposed, how will she deal with it?

But it was difficult to refute it now. After all, I seemed to be in a dilemma.

Anyway, Gu Han is easy to fool, so I can just coax him when the time comes.

Madam Gu was stunned for a moment: "No, grandma will welcome you. I didn't expect Jiaojiao to be so affectionate. Come in quickly, don't stand at the door."

Li Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief and walked in with Gu Han.

Madam Gu said, "Since you're not getting married, then let's keep the wedding simple. Han'er, what do you think?"

Gu Han's face looked a little ugly. He had lost all face in the capital and had a limp. He already had low self-esteem and his self-esteem was hurt, so how could he be willing to see people?

This wedding was naturally not a good one.

Thinking about it, he looked at Li Jiaojiao again: "I'm afraid that Jiaojiao will be wronged..."

Li Jiaojiao said anxiously: "I'm not wronged... Gu Han, I'm willing to do anything for you."

Gu Han was moved again. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

Li Jiaojiao said, "I've already moved in, so why not just have the wedding today?"

Madam Gu thought this was too simple, but Li Jiaojiao was right. Now that they had moved in, it would be a joke if they didn't hold a wedding ceremony. So she nodded and said, "As long as you are willing. I will ask someone to prepare it right away."

Old Madam Gu had already had someone clean up the part of the courtyard that Gu Han was assigned to. It was located in the west wing of the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion, which consisted of three connected courtyards.

From now on, this place belongs to Gu Han.

In the evening, Old Madam Gu called all the servants in the house, and Gu Shao also came.

Buy wedding dresses ready-made directly from clothing stores.

There was no wedding ceremony, no wedding ceremony, and all the etiquette was gone.

The two of them knelt down in the main hall and the ceremony was concluded.
