The next day, Gu Hanqiu brought everyone from the Gu family and headed towards the county town with gifts prepared.
Today they are going to visit the Kong family and, if possible, arrange the marriage between Gu Shui and Kong Xue to avoid any further complications.
Of course, many of these gifts were brought back by Gu Hanqiu from Beijing.
Gu Erquan and his son had prepared some gifts at home and were planning to pick them up today.
Seeing that the two of them were not doing anything too outrageous, Gu Hanqiu nodded in his heart.
It can be considered that her past two years of raising them were not in vain. She knew how to save money and didn't let her take care of everything alone.
Although the value of the gifts is not as good as those I brought back, at least they were given with the right intention, which is good.
She didn't have high expectations for the father and son. All she wanted was for them to listen to her and not cause trouble for her.
So far, these two people are doing pretty well.
When Gu Hanqiu and the others arrived at their destination, the matchmaker was already waiting for them at the street corner outside the Kong family's gate.
"Hey! Comrade Gu, you guys are here?"
When the matchmaker saw the car parked in front of her, she almost laughed to death.
The truth is, the richer Gu Hanqiu is, the more money she will give as a thank-you gift to her matchmaker.
Besides, even if you don’t go for the money, you go for the people.
Everyone around the Xinghua Brigade knew that Gu Hanqiu had married an official in Beijing and became his wife.
It is always better to build good relationships with others than to offend them.
On the other side, the Kong family,
"Big brother's wife, please take another look at where the house is not cleaned properly."
"Grandson, go watch outside the door. If you see the matchmaker bringing someone, notify me immediately."
"Old man, it's already this late and you're still reading your tattered newspaper. Can you please pay more attention?"
"Xiaoxue? Are you ready? The Gu family is coming soon!"
Ever since the matchmaker next door informed them yesterday that the Gu family would be visiting today, the Kong family has been in a state of tension.
It’s not that they are making a fuss, but this meeting is related to the fate of their Kong family.
I heard that the sister-in-law of the Gu family who married to Beijing came back specifically to help her brother find a wife.
They didn't expect the Gu family to help them in any way, they just hoped Kong Xue could find a good man.
Kong Xue herself was also a little nervous. She had met Gu Shui once before. He was handsome and tall.
Judging from his appearance, he is much better than Zhang Qiang's stupid son.
As for his inner character, Kong Xue no longer cares about that. As long as he is a normal man and doesn't beat his wife, that's enough.
The nephew of the Kong family, who was sent out by Kong's mother to keep an eye on people, saw the matchmaker appear at the door and the car following behind her, and immediately ran home excitedly.
"Grandma! Auntie!"
"Here they come! They're coming!"
"And he came in a car!"
Hearing that the Gu family came by car, the Kong family became even more excited, but also a little uneasy.
The Kong family also came from big cities and have seen the world.
But cars are not something they see often.
Kong's father had only been seen at the principal's office in their school.
Nowadays, you can’t buy a car just by having money.
He must be a person of status to own one.
However, the Kong family members were able to keep their composure, adjusted their expressions, stood up and went to the door to greet the guests.
Things are different now, and the Kong family can no longer act like they did to their future son-in-law.
As soon as the Kong family came out, they saw a military green off-road vehicle driving towards them.
If they are not mistaken, this is a military vehicle, right?
It is for military use only. Without some connections or status, you probably won’t be able to get it.
Look at the people who got off the car, each has their own characteristics.
Without mentioning Gu Erquan and Gu Shui, everyone can tell at a glance that they are from the countryside.
The young girl leading the group was dressed exquisitely yet elegantly, had a beautiful appearance and a calm temperament.
The two young boys, one big and one small, following behind her did not look like ordinary people.
The older one has the air of a gentle and elegant nobleman, while the younger one has a darker skin and a bit of toughness in his young body that has just grown up.
Everyone in the Kong family finally understood what the matchmaker had said: that as long as Kong Xue married into the Gu family, she would be fine.
They had heard before that the daughter of the Gu family had married an official. At that time, they just thought that people from small places were ignorant and regarded an ordinary low-level non-commissioned officer as some great official.
Now it seems that the man that the sister-in-law of the Gu family married is more powerful than they imagined.
When the Kong family members looked at Gu Hanqiu and her group, Gu Hanqiu was also looking at the Kong family members.
Kong's father and mother had a very obvious literary temperament. Their elegant demeanor, which came from being well-read in poetry and books, was enough to make people ignore their appearance.
Brother Kong and his wife also look quite kind.
Finally, there was Kong Xue, whom she was focusing on observing today.
With such a pair of parents, she is naturally not much worse.
She has inherited all the good looks from her parents, with delicate features and clear eyes.
Influenced by her parents and family, she has the temperament of a lady from a noble family.
Overall, this girl is a gentle, beautiful and well-behaved girl.
At first glance, the Kong family gives a good overall impression and is worth further contact.
When the matchmaker saw Gu Hanqiu's gentle expression, she knew that there was a 50% chance of this happening.
"Haha! Brother Kong, sister Kong, you are so thoughtful. Why did you come to the door to greet us? You made us feel embarrassed!"
"Haha, sister, you're joking. This is what I should do."
"This is Comrade Gu's sister, right? I'm Kong Xue's mother."
"Everyone, please feel free to come in!"
