"Alright, the three of us will drink him down, and with Gu Lao Er joining us, we'll definitely bring him down!" Duke Cheng'en and Prince Kang exchanged a glance, then said confidently.
"Huh?" Uncle Gu exclaimed in surprise.
Do you really need three people plus the second oldest to guarantee they'll be drunk out of the water?
But on the other hand, he had never seen Lu Zheng drunk. Maybe Lu Zheng's high alcohol tolerance was inherited from this scumbag!
Four it is. Anyway, Uncle Gu will make the Duke of Zhenguo crawl back on his knees, and he'll punch him a few times while he's drunk, accuse him of being a scumbag, and advise him to go back and divorce his wife, and more...
Since they've come to him, he's definitely not going to let them go!
Grandma Gu didn't even want to look at this silly boy anymore, sigh...
...
When the Duke of Zhenguo was young, he was a handsome man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to persuade Zhou Yujia, who yearned for freedom, was lively and enthusiastic and grew up in a small town, to travel thousands of miles to the capital with him. Nor would he have been able to persuade the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family to remain infatuated with him even after his marriage.
However, time has left its mark on his face; he has grown old.
But she still has the right foundation. Although she's old, she looks very mature and has a touch of melancholy.
Lu Zheng looks just like the Duke of Zhenguo. When the two of them stand there, you can tell they are father and son without any introduction.
Gu Xin looked at her future father-in-law. This was the first time she had looked at him so seriously. She genuinely felt that he wasn't a bad person, but when she thought about the suffering that Aunt Jia, Sister Xue, and Brother Yuanyuan had endured, even though she felt he wasn't a bad person, Gu Xin couldn't bring herself to like him.
The Duke's Mansion had already sent New Year's gifts to the Gu family before the Lunar New Year. This time, the Duke of Zhenguo came unexpectedly and also brought gifts for Grandpa and Grandma Gu.
The two elders accepted it without refusing.
Since the guests were welcome and it was almost dinnertime, the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Uncle Gu, along with his two old buddies, sat down on either side of the Duke of Zhenguo.
"Hey Lao Lu, this won't do!" Uncle Gu was a very outgoing person, and he had met the Duke of Zhenguo when he was young, so it was very natural for him to talk to him.
Zhenguo Gongzheng was about to greet Uncle Gu, but Uncle Gu didn't give him a chance at all.
"Old Lu, I remember you're not much older than me! Look at your hair, it's all turning white. Tsk!" Uncle Gu shook his head and sighed.
“Ah Ren hasn’t changed at all.” The Duke of Zhenguo smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing Uncle Gu reminded him of his first wife, Zhou Yujia. When they first met, it was just the two of them, along with Uncle Gu.
Back then, Uncle Gu liked to follow Zhou Yujia around and play wildly. Zhou Yujia would call Uncle Gu "Aren," and the Duke of Zhenguo would also call him that.
“I am now the Marquis of Huinong. Call me Lord Marquis. Don’t act like we’re old friends.” Uncle Gu was stunned. He probably didn’t expect the Duke of Zhenguo to be so shameless as to call him Aren. You know, that was the special name that Sister Jia used for the two brothers, Aren and Axin.
Gu Shouxin didn't have many feelings about it, after all, he wasn't the original owner of this body. He had memories of playing with Zhou Yujia, but they weren't very vivid, unlike his uncle.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" The Duke of Zhenguo smiled, then looked at Gu Shouxin, "Shouldn't Ah Xin also address you as Lord Gu?"
"Please do as you please, Your Excellency!" Gu Shouxin smiled.
Just as he finished speaking, the gatekeeper came to report that the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress, and the Crown Prince had arrived.
Those who had been seated stood up again and went out together to greet these important figures.
Tsk, the Emperor loves surprise attacks late at night!
