Chapter 123 I Don’t Want to Be
After the Third Prince came back from the palace, he went back to the prince's mansion. Those people were already waiting for him there. Faced with the emperor's sudden change of attitude, everyone was a little confused.
The housekeeper even said, "Your Majesty took great pains to snatch the throne away from you, and now he wants to return it to you. I think things are not as simple as we imagined. There must be some conspiracy. Your Majesty, don't be fooled by his appearance."
"You guys don't have to worry. I haven't completely agreed with my brother that I must become the emperor."
"Your Highness, when we are sure that the situation is no longer unstable and you will not be in danger no matter who becomes the emperor, you can take your son back. After all, you and your son have been separated for such a long time. If you don't take him back, he may not have any impression of you as a father in his mind."
"Of course I understand this, you don't need to worry about it, but right now I need to figure out what my brother is thinking. If my brother is truly repentant, then it's fine. If not, then this is a mess before I take it over, so I won't take it over."
This is Gu Leyou.
"Husband, do you think everything here has been resolved? Then we can go back. If you don't go back, my parents will be suspicious. Besides, if you haven't gone back to check on the child for such a long time since you sent him back, we will have a hard time explaining if something happens to the child."
"We have to wait two more days. The situation here is still unclear. If we go back rashly and something happens, we will have to rush back. This will delay us for many days. Besides, they will definitely be suspicious when we go back. Instead of this, it is better to wait until I finish my business here before going back."
So they stayed here for a while.
But Gujia Village is very lively.
The story of the little miracle doctor has spread.
Everyone was very curious about the young doctor's fiancée, but he knew very well that he had never married.
Gu Mingyue still hasn't given up the idea of becoming a family with the little miracle doctor.
So this day, while the couple was not at home, the aunt took her daughter to Gu Laoer's house.
When Gu Laoer saw the mother and daughter coming, he got a headache.
The eldest aunt didn't bother to be polite with Gu Lao Er and said directly: "I heard that the little doctor has been coming to your house a lot recently. Your little sickly child is back. You should take this opportunity to have a good talk with him and let him be with our Mingyue. As for his fiancée from his hometown, isn't she not married yet? That doesn't count."
Lin had long been fed up with her sister-in-law's behavior.
She explained, "Sister-in-law, you should calm down. Didn't the village chief get involved in the matter of the little doctor? The village chief doesn't agree with your daughter marrying the little doctor, so what are you talking about? Are all the men in the world dead? Why does your family have to monopolize the little doctor?"
When my aunt heard this, she became furious.
The eldest aunt put her hands on her hips, the veins on her neck popped out, and she shouted at the top of her voice: "Lin, stop talking nonsense here! What do you mean the village chief disagrees? The village chief is not the father of the little doctor, how can he control his life? The little doctor comes to your house every day, he must have fallen in love with our Mingyue, don't deliberately stop him here, and ruin my daughter's happiness!"
Gu Lao Er frowned and waved his hands impatiently: "Sister-in-law, stop making trouble here.
The little miracle doctor is close to our family because he has some friendship with our daughter, not because of Mingyue.
Besides, he already has a fiancée in his heart, so don't have any more unrealistic ideas. ”
Gu Mingyue stood aside, her eyes red and tears welling up in them.
She bit her lower lip tightly and said unwillingly, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, I really like the little doctor. I know he has a fiancée, but I also have the right to pursue happiness. I believe that as long as I work hard, he will see my good side."
Lin looked at Gu Mingyue's pitiful appearance. Although she felt a little sorry, she still hardened her heart and said, "Mingyue, you can't force feelings. The little doctor already has someone else in his heart. No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain. You are still young, and you will definitely meet someone more suitable in the future."
Lin also knew what the mother and daughter were planning.
They simply admired the young doctor's medical skills and thought that if he became their son-in-law, he would definitely help them make a lot of money.
Then they will be able to hold their heads high in this village and walk with their backs straight in front of others, and half of the money earned by the little miracle doctor will go into their pockets.
The eldest aunt did not listen to these words at all. She took a step forward, almost poking her finger at Lin's face, and said viciously: "Lin, stop pretending to be a good person here! You just don't want our Mingyue to live a good life, you are jealous of us!
I tell you, if you don’t help me today, I will never forgive you! ”
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the yard, followed by a familiar voice: "What happened? I heard such a loud noise before I even entered the yard."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the young doctor standing at the door with a hint of confusion on his face.
When the aunt saw the little doctor coming, she immediately changed her expression, put on a full smile, and hurried over to greet him: "Oh, little doctor, you are finally here.
Look, our Mingyue has lost her appetite for you. She really likes you. Just think about it and be with our Mingyue. ”
The young doctor frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. He walked in front of everyone and said calmly but firmly: "Auntie, I am very grateful for Miss Mingyue's kindness, but I already have a fiancée. My feelings for her are as solid as a rock, and no one else will be able to enter my heart.
I hope you won’t mention this matter again and won’t cause any more trouble for Brother Gu’s family. ”
When Gu Mingyue heard this, she could no longer hold back her tears. She covered her face, turned around and ran out of the yard. Seeing this, the eldest aunt was furious and anxious, and shouted at the little doctor: "Don't be ungrateful! How is our Mingyue not worthy of you? If you miss her, you will definitely regret it in the future!"
The young doctor ignored Yang's shouting. He walked up to Gu Laoer and Lin and said apologetically, "Uncle and Aunt, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
Gu Laoer waved his hands quickly: "Don't bother, this matter has nothing to do with you. It's just that the sister-in-law and the others are too stubborn."
Lin sighed and said, "Little doctor, don't take it to heart. My sister-in-law is just too anxious and wants Mingyue to marry into a good family." The little doctor nodded to show his understanding.
But Xiao Shenyi felt that this was not a solution. After all, he had lied to them and said that he did not have any fiancée. Now it seemed that he might have to really find a girl to be his fiancée, otherwise this matter would not be able to be concealed.
But this shows that we should not lie, once we lie, it is really irreversible.
I don’t know when my elder brother and younger sister-in-law will come back. They have to come back earlier, otherwise I will be really helpless.
Only they could help him think of a way to deal with the people in this village. Otherwise, if someone came to him every day to propose marriage to him, it would be all over.
After the village chief learned about this, he immediately went to Boss Gu's house again.
As soon as she entered the house, she was furious. Old Mrs. Gu was also very angry. She no longer had a good face towards the village chief.
The village chief's wife simply called the wife of the eldest son of the Gu family.
"Ms. Yang, I have told you so many times that the young doctor has a wife. Why are you bothering her? Besides, you know your daughter's character very well. There is no need to harm her."
When Yang heard this, she became unhappy and immediately started arguing with the village chief.
The village chief has finished his best friend’s business, so he has time to take care of the village affairs. The village chief would only step in when the trivial matters of each household could not be resolved. So when it came to today's matter, he felt that he needed to step in and resolve it, so as to avoid gossip in the village. After all, it was not just their family that was concerned about the small business, many unmarried girls in the village were concerned about the young miracle doctor.
The village chief also knew what kind of person his daughter was. Although she was hardworking, she was not good-looking and the young doctor didn't even like her.
So she could only marry her daughter to the right man and not waste any more time on the little miracle doctor.
A few days ago, a young man from the next village came to their house through someone.
He said that he liked the girl from their family, which made the village chief and his wife very happy.
Although they were happy, there was one problem they didn't understand at all.
That family was quite compatible with theirs, as they were also an ordinary farming family.
But the person who came to propose marriage asked them a question that was extremely embarrassing.
"Brother and sister-in-law of the village head, you know your daughter. Although she is hardworking, she is not pretty. It's not easy for a young man to like your daughter. You must seize the opportunity. They have put forward a condition. Can they give less betrothal gift? After all, your daughter's appearance is not advantageous."
The village head's wife became anxious when she heard this.
"Big sister, what are you saying? Our daughter is not good-looking, what else is not good about her? She is also hardworking. Look, she takes care of everything in the house."
The village chief also said.
"Yes, this girl in our family is the most hilarious. Although she is not as good as Xu's husband, she is really good at managing the housework inside and out. It would be right to marry such a girl home as a daughter-in-law."
But the matchmaker said, "Of course I understand this, but your daughter's face is really scary. Marrying a daughter like this is useless, so they want some benefits, and hope you can give in."
The village head's wife saw the other party belittling her daughter like this, but her daughter is now 20 years old. If she is older, no one will want her, so she gritted her teeth and agreed. However, as the daughter's biological mother, as her mother, she should consider the child more. She asked: "How much do they want to give as a betrothal gift?"
As a result, the matchmaker asked, "Can I exchange the silver for something? Can I give you something instead of money?"
When the village chief heard this, the expression on his face froze and he looked a little unhappy. How could you just give things without giving a betrothal gift in this day and age?
This is too much disrespect for the girl in their family. She will definitely suffer if she marries into such a shabby family.
But the village chief's wife doesn't think so. Giving things and giving money seem to be the same.
So she ignored her husband's objection and talked to the person who proposed marriage.
"Big sister, what are they willing to give you? You should know this, they should have told you."
The person who proposed the marriage answered.
"They gave me two bags of rice, a pig, a basket of eggs and some cloth. That should be enough."
The village chief’s wife is thinking this way.
If all the things the other party gave were converted into money, it should be enough.
But the village chief was not too happy about it. In his heart, this girl was a priceless treasure. Although she could not ask for more than those rich girls, she could not be too shabby either, otherwise she would be laughed at by other girls in the village.
After all, my daughter's appearance cannot compare to other girls, but she is diligent and capable, which is something we can still praise.
"Then, big sister, do you have anything else besides these things? Although my family is not rich, as a father, I can still support a daughter and give her a wedding gift after marriage. After all, I have loved my daughter since she was a child."
Of course the village chief's wife knew what the village chief meant. He had made up for all his faults to his eldest daughter by transferring them to his only daughter, so she wanted to do everything she could to give her the best.
The person proposing marriage shook his head. All these preparations for a girl from an ordinary family like them were already good enough. How could there be more?
"Then do you agree to let your daughter marry the boy from that family? If you don't agree, I will go back and give you a reply. I don't think the other party will be happy if you are so hesitant."
Children's marriage has always been decided by their parents and arranged by matchmakers.
Seeing that the village chief was somewhat unwilling, the village chief's wife quickly said to the matchmaker, "Sister, please come back tomorrow. Let us think about this matter overnight and give you an answer tomorrow. What do you think?"
The person who proposed marriage was also an experienced person. After all, marrying off a daughter also requires careful consideration. After all, marrying a daughter is different from marrying a wife. Parents all hope that their daughters will marry happily and live a good life in the future.
So I nodded and agreed.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news. I'll come again tomorrow."
After saying this, the person proposing marriage left.
The village chief and his wife were very worried. After all, they didn't know much about the other family's situation, and they couldn't let their daughter down.
