Gu Xin continued, "We can start with the four aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Uncle Qingyuan and Fifth Aunt let you make the decisions yourself, so I'm just giving you a suggestion. You can think about it carefully. It's only the end of July, so you still have six months to prepare. Don't worry, whatever you need, whatever we have, we can get it for you!"
Gu Yingxue was no longer so confused. She perked up and nodded, "Yes, I understand, Third Sister!"
The siblings then sat in the garden and started chatting about other things.
Gu Si spoke of Lu Ni: "Did you see Lu Ni leave with Prince Frog? I heard she cried so hard, she seemed really reluctant to leave! My third sister said she was scared before, and I didn't believe her, but now I really believe it. She was genuinely scared!"
Because the delegation from the west took a different route than the three delegations from the east, south, and north, and because Gu Xin and the others were escorting Cheng Huaijin, they did not see what Lu Ni looked like at the time; they had only heard about her from others.
It is said that Lu Ni cried terribly at the city gate, clinging to Lin Shi and refusing to let go, which moved all the people around her deeply.
This isn't just any ordinary marriage to someone far away; this is marrying someone to the other side of the sea.
The people of the capital had never heard of Dongzhe before, but they had at least learned a little about the western region in recent years.
Prince Tiantian was also good at putting on a show. When Lu Ni cried terribly, he got out of the car to help her up and even assured Lin Shi in front of everyone that he would take good care of Lu Ni.
This further enhanced his standing among the people of the capital.
He had suffered a crushing defeat in the martial arts arena, and the people had heard rumors that he had feelings for Gu Xin.
However, the pursuit of a beautiful and virtuous woman by a gentleman is not something shameful.
Now that he's married to the daughter of the Duke's family, judging from his appearance, he must be a caring person. Wouldn't that improve the public's impression of him?
Gu Xin smiled and said, "From the moment she dared not drug herself, she was afraid. When I went over there, she was really trembling with fear."
Gu Ren said, "Some people are like that. They seem fierce all the time, but they chicken out when it really matters. As for Lu Ni, I think with her brains, she would definitely be taken advantage of if she went to Dongzhe. Besides, the Lin family would definitely think she's doing very well over there."
Gu Xin disagreed: "It's hard to say. People change after experiencing certain things."
Dugu Mingyue sided with Gu Ren, retorting to Gu Xin, "But no matter what a stupid person goes through, she's still a stupid person! If she's not smart, she's not smart. Lu Ni didn't cause this situation to happen for any other reason; it's because she's stupid!"
Gu Xin: "..."
Well, she didn't know how to refute it either.
Gu Yingxue said, "There's a storybook in the bookstore about a man who went through a lot of misfortunes and had a very unfortunate life. When he was in his thirties, a god in heaven gave him a second chance. He was very smart. His tragic life was indeed due to bad luck, but the god gave him a second chance, and he avoided those misfortunes. Although he didn't have a smooth life, his ending was much better than before."
Gu Xin laughed and said, "So, you still want to tell me that this has something to do with the brain, right?"
