On the day the Marquisate welcomed back its true young lady, the entire capital city waited to watch a show. They intended to make her marry in place of someone else? She, carrying the Crown Prince...
Chapter 38: Name of Engagement
Upon hearing this, Gu Nansheng's face became more fierce.
"If that's the case, just drag this girl away and beat her to death. Why get angry over her?"
"Forget it. This girl has been with me for so long. Even if she hasn't made any contributions, she has worked hard. Let her go first."
This girl is the one she is most comfortable with and knows a lot of things, so she can't die now.
As she spoke, she looked at Bai Lu coldly again.
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and get down."
Bai Lu quickly expressed her gratitude, bent her body and walked out quickly.
When the white dew disappeared, Gu Yunjin put on a weak look again.
"Brother, today's incident was all because of me. Mother took such a risk. I didn't expect..."
As Gu Yunjin spoke, she began to sob softly again.
"After all, this is Jin'er's fate."
She cried and threw herself into Gu Nansheng's arms, sobbing.
"I've thought it through today. As long as it can help the Marquis' Mansion, I'll let Jin'er do anything."
"No."
"Our Marquisate has not yet reached the point where we would sell our daughters to maintain our honor."
Gu Nansheng comforted softly.
Gu Yunjin felt the warmth in Gu Nansheng's arms and suddenly paused.
Almost at the same time, Gu Nansheng felt Gu Yunjin's breath on his neck, and his body paused slightly.
And this small action was successfully captured by Gu Yunjin.
She almost forgot.
She is no longer the biological daughter of the Marquis's family.
If I were really with Gu Nansheng, then given Gu Nansheng's personality, would she not have to marry the Third Prince?
As Gu Yunjin thought about this, she hugged Gu Nansheng even tighter.
But Gu Nansheng suddenly pushed her away, took a step back, and then hesitantly said:
"I was just a little worried about you, so I came to see you. If you're okay, I'll be relieved."
"You have a good rest first, I'm leaving first."
Having said that, the man left quickly.
Gu Yunjin looked at Gu Nansheng's leaving back and smiled.
After Gu Nansheng left, Bai Lu immediately came back.
Gu Yunjin took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to Bai Lu.
"Take this one thousand taels."
"You go and make the arrangements. I want to buy Gu Jingchun's life."
Bai Lu paused slightly and looked up suddenly.
You know, before, she only helped Gu Yunjin deal with some small characters, but now she has to deal with Gu Jingchun.
This is the eldest daughter of the Marquis’ Mansion!
How dare she!
Bai Lu felt a little unsure.
But Gu Yunjin was very confident.
"She's just a country girl with a good mouth, so what?"
"In that case, I'll just tear her lips apart. I want to see what else she has to say."
As she spoke, she added another sentence.
"Remember, do things cleanly."
"yes."
Bai Lu agreed immediately and went to make arrangements.
The second day.
Gu Jingchun was first awakened by a burst of sound of music, and then he heard the voices of Lan Xin, Xiao Man, and his son.
"Such a large betrothal gift! It seems that the Luo family is sincere. Miss has made the right choice."
"Of course. When have you ever seen my mother misjudge someone?"
Gu Jinxi's face was filled with pride.
Gu Jingchun stood up after hearing this.
Seeing this, Gu Jinxi immediately rushed over, hugged Gu Jingchun and said:
"Mother, please go to the front yard and take a look. The Luo family is here to deliver the betrothal gifts."
Gu Jinxi said with some disappointment, "What a pity, my future father didn't come. I still don't know what he looks like!"
Gu Jingchun: ...
Son, you're accepting this too quickly.
However, Gu Jingchun did not expect the Luo family to act so quickly. He stood up in surprise and took a long time to dress up before reaching the front yard.
As soon as she entered, what caught her eye was the yard full of betrothal gifts and the envious eyes of people around her.
Gu Jingchun had expected that given Luo Ziqian's situation, the Luo family's elders would definitely treat her kindly and caringly after she got married.
But she didn't expect the Luo family to be so generous and send so many betrothal gifts.
This specification must be one of the best in Tiandu.
Gu Jingchun felt the warmth in his heart as he felt valued. He walked over and looked at the betrothal gifts one by one.
However, before she finished reading, she heard a sneering voice.
She looked up and realized that all the servants in the yard had retreated at some point, leaving only Gu Yunjin looking at her coldly.
"snort!"
"You've never seen the world before, and you're so happy about just this little thing. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the servants?"
Gu Jingchun raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
Is this... finally stopping pretending and revealing his true self?
Gu Jingchun said, "I've never seen anything good before. With so many betrothal gifts, I naturally have to take a good look at them."
"However, this Third Prince is a prince, so I'm sure my sister's betrothal gift will be indispensable!"
"When the palace sends the betrothal gifts, I hope you won't forget to ask me to come and have a good look at them and open my eyes!"
In the previous life, when Gu Jingchun got married, the betrothal gifts sent by the palace seemed to be quite a lot, but in fact they were all inflated.
Obviously, because the third prince was not valued, the betrothal gift was naturally perfunctory.
And considering Gu Yunjin's extravagant nature, when the third prince's betrothal gift arrives, there will surely be a lot of excitement!
However, there was no need to wait. Now that Gu Jingchun mentioned the third prince, Gu Yunjin's face turned a little ugly.
"Gu Jingchun, don't be so complacent. You got away with it this time because your mother was careless. You won't be so lucky next time."
Gu Yunjin said, "As for the Luo family, that is the Shangshu Mansion.
You are a widow with a child. Even if the emperor grants you a marriage, you will still be wasted if you marry him!"
"I'm really looking forward to seeing you being disliked by others in the Luo family."
After Gu Yunjin finished speaking, Gu Jingchun stared at her coldly. Before she could react, she heard a gentle yet powerful voice.
“Nonsense!”
"Our Luo family really likes Miss Jingchun."
Gu Jingchun looked over when he heard the voice and immediately saw a smiling face.
Liu Sihua walked over slowly, held her hand directly, and asked softly:
"I guess you are Gu Jingchun."
Gu Jingchun nodded. She looked at Liu Sihua, then at Luo Kejin who was standing behind her with a serious face. She had already guessed the identities of the two people and quickly bowed.
"Madam Luo, may you be safe and sound..."
Before Gu Jingchun could bend his legs, he was stopped by Liu Sihua.
"Oh, no need to be so polite."
She held Gu Jingchun's hand and looked her up and down, which made Gu Jingchun look a little embarrassed.
"What a good child!"
"She's really good-looking!"
"He's really handsome. Look at his skin, it's so white and delicate."
"Ziqian is blessed to marry a girl as good as you."
