Today is January 1st, which is a very important New Year's Day in China.
The new year begins with marrying her.
……………
The scene outside was exceptionally spectacular.
Besides those who had witnessed Gu Yibei and Ji Zhinan's love story, the engagement banquet also invited many aristocratic families.
The Gu family's status in Y country is well-known. Logically speaking, Gu Yibei's engagement banquet should be a grand affair, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to let the whole country eat a free feast for a day.
Holding it on a small island was indeed a bit of a small affair.
But it doesn't matter. No matter how big or fancy the engagement party is, it can't compare to the love and affection between the young couple. As long as the two children are happy for a long time, that's all that matters.
However, in order to maintain Ji Zhinan's status and to let those noble families know how important Ji Zhinan is to the Gu family, all the noble families who should be invited were invited, including the three noble ladies who had previously made sarcastic remarks about Ji Zhinan.
Mrs. Wagner sat in the middle or back, looking at the crowd in front of her. Her meticulously maintained hands clenched into fists, almost breaking her expensive manicure.
Because of their social status, these ladies and their husbands sat separately. Their husbands were received by Gu Jue and sat on one side, while Mo Lin received them on the other side.
Sitting next to her was Miss Diana, Mrs. Wagner's daughter, whose freckles, just as Gu Yibei had complained, were impossible to conceal with foundation.
Diana sat there, her body constantly moving, her ankle-length dress concealing her incessantly stamping feet.
She looked very unhappy, displaying a strong spoiled princess attitude.
"Mother, I love Gu Yibei. Why would he rather marry a commoner than be with me?"
Seeing how exquisitely the engagement ceremony was decorated, Diana was extremely jealous, especially after hearing that Gu Yibei had personally arranged it. Her jealousy was palpable.
She was clinging to Madame Wagner's arm, so angry she could hardly sit still.
"Mother, what is the Gu family thinking! Since ancient times, it has been the proper thing for noble families to do to consolidate the status of their two families through marriage. Why would the Gu family marry a commoner with no background and no power? What good will this do for their family? They are really confused!"
"You child, keep your voice down, are you afraid the Gu family won't hear you?!" Mrs. Wagner snapped.
Miss Diana, who had always been pampered since childhood, was rarely scolded by her mother, and immediately felt very aggrieved.
Mrs. Wagner stared ahead with a gloomy face. She was in a bad mood and had no time to comfort her daughter.
Looking at the group of people laughing and talking in front of her, Mrs. Wagner's face turned as black as coal.
Among their nobility, the most important thing is rules.
Today is the Gu family's engagement banquet. According to custom, it is perfectly fine for the Gu family to be in the first row, and the second and third rows are for dukes and earls who have a particularly good relationship with the Gu family and hold very high positions in Y country. This is also understandable.
But why do all the maids in the Gu family have seats, and even seats closer to the front than hers?
The Wagner family was a prestigious family in Y country, but who would have thought that they would be treated worse than even the maids in the Gu family? This was a humiliation, a blatant humiliation!
The two ladies sitting next to Mrs. Wagner also looked rather grim. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that they were the same two who had joined Mrs. Wagner in humiliating Ji Zhinan.
Because of Ji Zhinan, the three noble ladies and Mo Lin parted on bad terms, and Mo Lin even made Gu Jue sever all cooperation with their families.
For this, they were severely scolded by their husbands.
