Chu Qiuze has a cute appearance, and is naturally liked by elders.

Concubine Wu is naturally no exception, she looks so well behaved.

She had inadvertently heard the palace maids secretly discussing the gods coming to earth, so she guessed Chu Qiu Ze's identity.

She hated those charlatans even more than Lan An, because it was those charlatans who destroyed her love and her life.

But when she saw Chu Qiuze's eyes, she did not feel any disgust at all. Those eyes were clear and pure, and any vulgarity and filth in the world had nothing to do with him.

People are divided into good and bad, including charlatans, so we cannot generalize.

Moreover, when she thought of those rumors, she thought that maybe her son's sweetheart might really be a god.

It seems that her son was not unwilling to get married before, but his standards were too high? He had to marry a fairy?

After entering the inner hall, the palace maids served tea and then left.

"Mother, this is Chu Qiuze." Lan An took the initiative to introduce him: "The God of Light, you can just call him Qiuze."

Chu Qiuze blushed as he was introduced to his mother by his friend Lan, and he even pulled the trigger. It was so embarrassing.

Now he kind of regrets pretending to be a god.

Concubine Wu saw that her son had changed a lot after this trip. He had become more flesh and blood and was no longer the cold prince. She felt much better in her heart.

All these changes were brought about by this little fairy.

She smiled and nodded, "Qiu Ze, you've worked hard along the way."

"Aunt, I don't know what you like, so I brought you some gifts according to my own preferences." Chu Qiuze handed over a set of jewelry boxes that he had carefully selected, "I hope you will like it."

Her face was red, really following the etiquette of meeting the parents.

Concubine Wu felt very touched, "Qiu Ze is so thoughtful."

"Please open it and have a look." Chu Qiuze felt a little nervous.

Although my aunt did not show any ill will towards him now, a big reason might be that she did not know about his relationship with Lan Euan.

The emperor could accept it because of jealousy and checks and balances.

But people in ancient times valued offspring very much, and he really couldn't be sure whether Lan An's mother could completely accept him.

Anyway, if Lan An's mother proposed to take a concubine to continue the bloodline in the future, he would absolutely not accept it.

Therefore, his wishful thinking was to gain his aunt's favor while she was still unaware of it.

Even if the situation is exposed later, they will not completely fall out with each other, and they will leave themselves a roundabout way to save the country.

Concubine Wu didn't know what he was thinking. It was not reasonable to open the gifts in front of the guests, but it was a different matter since the guests asked for it.

The moment she opened the beautifully packaged box, she was so shocked that she was almost incoherent. She opened her mouth several times, but was unable to accurately express her emotions.

She loves jewelry, and jewelry is the only thing she likes in recent years.

There were already quite a few in the palace, and her son also gave her quite a few when he grew up, but none of them could compare to the one in front of her.

The style is novel and the workmanship is exquisite.

I couldn't put it down after I saw it.

When Chu Qiu Ze saw the expression on his mother-in-law's face, he knew that he had made the right gift. He had hired craftsmen to make it custom-made during the reconstruction period.

He personally oversees the design and materials of each piece, including hairpins, hairpins, hair crowns, earrings, rings, bracelets, and necklaces.

The antique design also has some modern elements; the modern exquisite craftsmanship also makes up for the shortcomings of ancient pure manual work.

It's expensive, but worth it.

Lan An stood aside, secretly shook Chu Qiuze's hand, and silently said thank you.

Chu Qiuze responded with a look that said: We are inseparable, so there is no need to thank you for our feelings in the next life.

Blue Gum responded with a faint smile.

Just as Concubine Wu looked up and was about to express her gratitude, she saw her old son exchanging glances with the little fairy.

She is very pleased with how lively her son looks now.

"Qiu Ze, is there anyone else at home?" Concubine Wu was not very good at chatting, especially since this person might be her future daughter-in-law.

But when she thought about the fact that Lan An was already thirty years old, when she was her age, Lan An was already in his teens, but Lan An was still single at the age of thirty.

It's not that she didn't get anxious, but when she thought about her own experience, she didn't want to force him anymore and just let things take their course.

She would rather her son grow old alone than have an unhappy marriage.

Now someone has finally taken him in.

Chu Qiuze didn't know how the conversation suddenly came to this point, but he still answered honestly.

"I have grandparents, parents, and older brother at home." He answered the teacher's question as obediently as a little chicken.

There was no sign of his usual dandy behavior.

Concubine Wu nodded, very satisfied, and asked: "How old are you this year? Has your family ever arranged a marriage?"

"Twenty-three." Chu Qiuze replied: "We don't have a tradition of getting engaged. Most people get married based on their love."

You are twenty-three now, not young anymore, it’s time to get married.

It's just, "What does this free love mean?"

Even if Chu Qiuze is slow, he should understand it now.

Judging from the aunt's attitude, she doesn't seem to object? Instead, she's testing him?

He gained a little more confidence. "Aunt, free love means that you can freely choose the person you like. Two people go from knowing each other to falling in love. If there is a certain emotional foundation, then tell your parents and then discuss marriage."

In modern times, this is normal procedure!

But these words were quite bold in ancient times.

Although the customs of the Han people are not so bad as not even meeting each other before marriage, it is not allowed to talk about love and secretly decide on the life together before engagement.

However, being able to freely choose the person she likes directly touched the softest part of Concubine Wu's heart, and she felt that the fairyland was really great.

Lan An was also deeply touched. He had never heard Chu Qiu Ze talk about that in that world, before getting married, one needs to get to know each other and develop feelings first, and then see the parents get engaged and married.

No wonder Chu Qiuze expressed his affection for him so directly, confessing, holding hands, hugging, and even kissing.

In that world, maybe everything is normal?

Fortunately, I didn't propose marriage rashly.

And the dates mentioned before are probably also a necessary process for nurturing relationships in that world, right?

It's time to put it on the agenda.

The three people had different thoughts, but they were thinking about the same thing. Not only that, they could even chat together.

This atmosphere is warm yet also a little weird.

"Qiu Ze, what are the marriage customs in your fairy world? Can you tell me about them and open my eyes?" Concubine Wu began to inquire, as she had to prepare in advance.

Chu Qiuze knew what she meant.

With a sweet heart, he happily explained, "In fact, when it comes to marriage, the rules are roughly the same as Dahan's. Both parents meet and discuss the gift and dowry. However, many people skip the engagement step and just find an auspicious day to hold the wedding."

Concubine Wu nodded. The customs were indeed not much different, and were much simpler than those of Dahan. This was indeed good.

Even if her daughter-in-law is a deity, the standards and etiquette for a prince of the Dahan royal family to get married will definitely not be too bad.

It should still be presentable.

I just wonder how they, as mortals, can go to the fairyland to discuss marriage?

After hearing what Chu Qiuze said, Lan An breathed a sigh of relief again. Chu Qiuze said there was no difference, but he felt that there was a huge difference.

Three books and six ceremonies, a formal marriage, and ten li of red makeup are all indispensable.

But if these things were brought into that world, wouldn't they be completely unacceptable?

If that's the case, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Chu Qiu Ze if he was arrested?

It seems that I still need to learn more before making a decision.

I don't know why these elementary school students who have just started dating are suddenly talking about getting married.

Chu Qiuze wanted to laugh. From what he saw at the moment, his aunt didn't seem to mind his gender.

But he has to guard against what he is worried about.

Just because Lan An doesn’t care about the royal heirs doesn’t mean others don’t care.

Looking at the kind face of Lan An's mother, Chu Qiu Ze made up his mind.

Sometimes, you have to speak upfront.

"Aunt, actually there are some differences between our place and here."

"Hmm?" Concubine Wu tilted her ear to listen.

"In our place, marriage is for one couple for life. You can't take concubines, let alone have mistresses." Chu Qiuze blurted it out. "So when I get married in the future, I will never accept sharing my love with others. He can only have me for the rest of his life."

"Pfft!" Concubine Wu couldn't help but laughed, covering her mouth.

This is so interesting.

The two close maids looked at each other. They hadn't seen the concubine so happy for a long time.

This legendary deity is indeed very powerful.

Lan Euan also had a smile on his face. Being together for a lifetime, together as one person, wasn't that what he wanted?

Now that things have come to this, there is nothing to hide.

Chu Qiuze was worried about the issue of offspring, and he was actually worried too. He didn't care about offspring, but he didn't want to have to deal with being caught between his family and his lover in the future, so it was better to make things clear all at once.

He held Chu Qiuze's hand and said firmly, "Mother, this is the person I want to spend my life with."

Therefore, I am destined to be childless, so I will not force it or make things difficult for my son.

While he was talking to his mother, his eyes were fixed on Chu Qiu Ze. He also wanted to be like Chu Qiu Ze and express his feelings directly.

Chu Qiuze was stunned. Although this was the implication of their conversation today, he didn't want to leave the room right away.

Can't you hint at it first? And then say it when everyone understands it?

This is the first time we meet.

nervous.

But my heart feels as sweet as if it were filled with honey.

"Mother knows." Concubine Wu's eyes sparkled with tears. She held the two people's hands and said, "Mother just wants you to live happily. She doesn't care about anything else."

She looked at the two of them and said, "I saw it as soon as you came today."

She had also been deeply in love with someone, and she knew what it looked like to love someone in the eyes.

She went on to say, "Qiu Ze is a good child, you guys should be good. As for when you want to get married, just let me know in advance and I will prepare for you."

This means that it doesn't matter whether they cultivate their feelings before or after marriage.

After that, he looked at Chu Qiuze again, "Qiuze, you don't have to worry about the issue of offspring. Marriage is not for the purpose of having children, but for the witness of two people's deep love."

This thought is too avant-garde, isn't it? Chu Qiuze sighed.

Now that the conversation was settled, Chu Qiuze was no longer nervous. "Aunt, I will take good care of Lan Euan in the future. I..."

Before he could finish his words, a childish voice came from outside the door.

"Father, father."

The shouting was getting closer and closer, "You're back, why don't you come to see me?"

There are only two men here, Chu Qiuze and Lan An, and the only one who can be called father is Lan An.

Chu Qiuze was frightened when he saw the pink and tender little kid jumping in through the door.
