It seems that the old man has a love-hate relationship with him!
Gu Tingzhi looked at Meng Fuyan and said, "If it's given by an elder, then take it!"
Meng Fuyan reached out and took the two large red bricks that were wrapped tightly.
If you dare to give it to me, I dare to take it. Do you have extra money to spare?
Seeing that she actually accepted it, Xu Honghua on the other end stared intently at the two large red envelopes, as if a piece of flesh had been ripped out of her body, and she was in pain all over.
When Grandpa Gu gave him a look, Xu Honghua, who was about to lose control, immediately came to her senses, lowered her head, and remained silent.
Gu Tingzhi smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Meng Fuyan smiled brightly, "Thank you, Grandpa!"
Old Master Gu: "..."
Since Grandpa Gu is here, he should naturally sit at the head table.
The wedding banquet was quite nice. Although the old man had eaten a lot of good food and often attended state banquets, he still ate the food in front of him with great relish.
Of course, he was the one who ate the most heartily in the entire Gu family.
After glancing at the few illegitimate sons and grandsons who were hesitant to eat, Old Master Gu said, "Eat more, everyone. The dishes are good, and there's so much meat. You won't regret it."
Everyone: "..."
Outsiders don't know the inside story of the Gu family. In their eyes, Gu Tingzhi is the grandson of the Gu family and the son of Gu Tao. The fact that the old man came to the wedding and gave so many red envelopes shows how much he values the family.
When other grandsons of the Gu family got married, they definitely didn't receive this kind of treatment in their red envelopes.
Those who have made contributions are indeed different; Gu Tingzhi is sure to be favored.
As for Xu Honghua, the original wife, and Gu Tingzhi's identity, not many people really care about these things, because in this era, such situations are still quite common.
During the war years, people were frequently relocated. When the men went to fight, their wives usually stayed in their hometowns to take care of the elderly and children. In those chaotic times, it was common for many women to not see each other for several years, pass away, or become unreachable.
These men can't stay unmarried forever. Many of them move to a new place and marry a wife every few years, have a few children, and then move again after a few years. Some of them can't be contacted anymore, while others don't even try to contact their wives and just marry another one.
When peace finally comes, which woman stays by your side will depend on her abilities.
The women in the Kyoto compound who are currently with their husbands are not necessarily their first wives. Some of the first wives are still taking care of their elderly parents back in their hometowns!
This situation exists in this era and is referred to as a legacy of history.
Internal strife is common in many families; it's nothing new.
The wedding was a lively affair. After the ceremony, Gu Tingzhi had a day and a half off. After seeing off some relatives and friends, only Lu Guozhong and Lu Jianjun remained.
Lu Guozhong again excluded Lu's parents from today's wedding, leaving them at home on the grounds that they were in poor health.
The reason is that those two elderly people are not as easy to manage as some people in the Gu family. No matter how vicious Xu Honghua is, she is still manageable. People are afraid of her and dare not cause trouble at the wedding.
However, the two elders of the Lu family are different; they are completely uncontrollable, so it's best for them not to show their faces.
Lu Guozhong and Lu Jianjun took several younger relatives back to the old house and told Meng Fuyan and Gu Tingzhi to have dinner there that evening.
Back at her home, Meng Fuyan counted all the money she had received as gifts that day.
Um!
Get rich overnight!
Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "Even if I never work for the rest of my life, I can still live a life of luxury."
Gu Tingzhi sat to the side and said, "Even without these things, I can still make sure you live a life of luxury without ever having to work."
The bed was very soft. Meng Fuyan put the red envelope aside and, seeing that Gu Tingzhi seemed a little unhappy, asked, "Is it because of your grandfather and those people? Are you in a bad mood?"
Gu Tingzhi glanced at her, took off his shoes, lay down on the bed, and rested his head on her lap. "I'm not in a bad mood. Marrying you today and living this simple and peaceful life is what I've always wanted. But seeing Grandpa bring those people today, I still feel sorry for Mom and my older brother."
“I can avenge them, I can take revenge on the entire Gu family, but even so, these people enjoyed years of wealth and luxury, while my mother and older brother suffered greatly and left this world early. Even if I kill those people now, my mother and older brother will never come back.”
Meng Fuyan looked down at the person in her arms, "Then... what are you going to do in the future?"
Gu Tingzhi smiled, "I'm going to... take back all the happiness they didn't get!"
As he spoke, he stood up and tackled Meng Fuyan to the ground.
Meng Fuyan was startled. "What?"
"Aren't we going to the old house for dinner tonight? It'll probably be another big battle, so let's replenish our energy first."
Meng Fuyan stared in disbelief, “Energy… um…”
Is this how you replenish energy?
It was evening, and this was Meng Fuyan's first time visiting the Lu family's old residence.
She had been here in her past life, and if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes now, she would have almost forgotten what this place looked like.
