Chapter 48 Gu Rongyu marries again
Chang Xixi didn't really intend to hide it, it's just that you used me and I used you!
"In order to ensure that a few of those talented people can pass the imperial examinations, the old master and I have put a lot of thought into it. Although I only care about making money, I can't let the students down."
"It seems that you are not doing this to make money, but out of kindness?" Gu Rongyu joked directly.
The person being talked about blushed even more out of shame, not knowing what to say. He lowered his head even more and looked at his toes.
Gu Rongyu didn't plan to joke around anymore. He picked up the book and put it in Chang Xixi's arms. "Take it. Give it to Qingnan later and ask him to take it back today. Don't let other students see it. Got it? Keep it a secret. If someone sees it and has something to hold against them, it won't be good."
"My husband, are you trying to remind me to clean up my mess?"
"Husband and wife are birds of the same age. We prosper together and suffer together, complementing each other."
"oh."
Chang Xixi also showed her embarrassed side for the first time, and even more like a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing her so embarrassed, I couldn't help but feel better.
When I walked into the school next door, I felt refreshed. When I saw the students, I no longer felt jealous and instead gave them a smile.
The students just felt scared!
Before, he had a cold face all day, without any expression at all. How did he suddenly show some expression, and even a smile? They all thought they might be killed that night. He lowered his head and began to read, not looking at Gu Rongyu.
Gu Rongyu didn't care what other people were like, he just felt in a good mood.
His wife belongs to him alone, and has nothing to do with these students and men. She belongs to him alone.
After only a few days of intimacy, someone else came to the door. The visitor was the head of the Pang family. He came for no other reason than that he heard at home that Gu Rongyu was now rich and in good health, so he wanted to curry favor with him.
Chang Xixi still received him. Seeing Uncle Pang with a flattering smile on his face, wearing the only long gown in the family, a style from several years ago, and a blue ribbon in his hair, she sneered in her heart, afraid that he was here to extort money again.
"Uncle Pang, what's the reason for your visit this time? I'm a bit busy at the academy, so it's inconvenient for you to stay for long. If you have something to say, it's better to tell me as soon as possible, otherwise it would be bad if you miss something important."
Despite saying such harsh words, Chang Xixi didn't even serve the other person tea.
I just want to drive people away!
Uncle Pang sat on the bare table, not even a sip of water. He knew Chang Xixi didn't like him, but he still waited with a thick face, "My girl was originally engaged to that Gu Xiucai. Now that he's well, we can see when to marry her directly. I think this courtyard is quite suitable."
hehe!
She sneered, slapped the table with her hand, and her chest heaved. "Uncle Pang is so arrogant! He wants to live in this house right away. But you know, I am Gu Rongyu's first wife now. What's a girl from your hometown like?"
"This matter is all your fault for intercepting it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have come to this." Uncle Pang directly passed the blame to Chang Xixi. At that time, the two families did not really cancel the engagement.
Gu Rongyu heard from Qingnan who was in the study at the moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
He walked out of the school gate, and without going into the study, he stood outside the door and eavesdropped.
When I heard Chang Xixi say that she was his first wife, I naturally felt happy!
Uncle Pang's face was still full of smiles. Who would refuse someone who was given to him? Now Gu Rongyu had such a wife who could make money. At least the house was not his. When the girl married in, everything would be hers.
"You don't have the final say on this matter. Call Gu Rongyu over."
Gu Rongyu was wearing a navy blue gown, which matched his skin tone very well. His sickly face looked even more handsome. Coupled with his tall stature, wherever he stood, people would keep looking towards him.
The eyebrows, nose, eyes, face, every part is just right.
Chang Xixi was stunned by what she saw. The afternoon sun happened to shine behind him, making it so bright that it was impossible to look away.
Gu Rongyu noticed the dazed look and was shocked.
I thought Chang Xixi had no interest in his appearance, but... I didn't expect to see him lost in thought, with the corners of his mouth raised. Seeing Uncle Pang, he lost his temper. "Uncle Pang, can you please come in? Miss Pang is really out of my reach. I hope Uncle Pang can go home."
"You little wolf cub, how can you be so heartless? If it weren't for your father... who would be willing to marry you?"
As Uncle Pang spoke, he recalled what happened that year.
Suddenly, a man came to live in the village with his first wife's child. Everyone thought they were fugitives, but they saw that they had been living a peaceful life. The man married another wife and gradually became estranged from his first wife's child, even going hungry.
If it weren't for the fact that his family had some small fortune.
I heard from the old man that when the man came, he was wearing armor and was covered in blood. His eyes were also red, and the child he was holding in his hand had no expression on his face and looked very indifferent.
"It was really hard for Uncle Pang to be willing to marry his daughter to me back then. Now, I am someone else's husband, and I am afraid I can't take care of Miss Pang's lifelong affairs. Please find another job." Gu Rongyu said lightly, pinching the corner of his sleeve lightly with his fingers, and slowly walked to Chang Xixi's side and sat down.
The two smiled at each other, showing the tacit understanding between them like an ordinary couple.
Only Chang Xixi herself knew how nervous she was. She was doomed! She must have been discovered peeping at him.
"You, the marriage certificate is still with me, so you have to marry my girl home no matter what."
Uncle Pang took out a piece of paper from his arms and put it on the table.
Chang Xixi opened it and saw that it was indeed the engagement between Gu Rongyu and the young lady from the Pang family. It turned out that the time of their wedding was exactly the day that the young lady Pang and Gu Rongyu were supposed to get married. What a coincidence!
She laughed uncontrollably and put down the documents in her hand. "Uncle Pang, let's go see the county magistrate! If I marry Miss Pang, where will my husband put me? He has two wives at home? My husband is only devoted to me now. If he wants him to marry another woman, I might as well kill him directly."
Gu Rongyu almost choked himself. If outsiders heard what Chang Xixi said, they would think that they were husband and wife. Only they themselves knew that they were sleeping in the same bed but with different quilts.
We've been married for a long time and haven't even held hands, how can you say you only like her!
Uncle Pang doesn’t know!
"If you two insist, I'll have no choice but to file a lawsuit with the county government."
After people left.
Chang Xixi closed the door, bolted it, and walked to Gu Rongyu's side.
