“Master…this eldest son really values our Li’er too much. I’ve never seen a young master give so much betrothal gifts when getting married. Many noble families don’t even give this much.”
She whispered in the ear of the Gu family patriarch.
Mr. Gu was also somewhat frightened. This was the first time he had ever seen such a large-scale event, and he was really not mentally prepared.
"Madam, this is a good thing. The eldest young master values Li'er. When Li'er goes to the city lord's mansion in the future, he will surely take good care of her and not let her suffer any grievances."
Madam Gu nodded, and the two elders chatted with Jiang Huaizhi, who had sat down.
Gu Jiangli and Hehua secretly stood in the corner behind the house.
Even Gu Jiangli was almost speechless with astonishment when she saw the betrothal gifts.
She hadn't expected Jiang Huaizhi to bring so many things. Could he have prepared so much in just one night?
Will the city lord and his wife agree?
As she was thinking this, she heard several rapid coughs coming from Jiang Huaizhi's mouth.
He covered his mouth with one hand and apologized to Mr. and Mrs. Gu with some embarrassment.
Judging from his complexion, he must have gotten sick from falling into the water.
Even so, did he still drag his ailing body to fulfill the agreement?
He's such an honest person.
Gu Jiangli listened to their polite conversation, and then Jiang Huaizhi got straight to the point.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu did not refuse and quickly agreed to the marriage.
The two elders asked if they should discuss marriage matters with the city lord and his wife, but Jiang Huaizhi said that the city lord and his wife had already declared that he could make all the decisions regarding his marriage.
So Gu's parents stopped insisting and set a wedding date with Jiang Huaizhi.
The wedding ceremony will be held on the first day of next month.
They discussed many things, and Gu Jiangli listened silently without intervening until all the details were discussed and then Jiang Huaizhi got up and left.
As Gu Jiangli watched Jiang Huaizhi walk away, Huaiyu went up to support him, becoming even more certain that his illness was quite serious.
The betrothal gifts have been accepted, and she is now his fiancée.
It is perfectly reasonable for her to visit him in his fiancée's name to check on his illness.
Gu Jiangli made up her mind and decided to visit him at the city lord's mansion.
After Jiang Huaizhi stepped out of the Gu family's gate, he quickly broke free from Huaiyu's support.
"How's Sun Chan's situation?"
Huaiyu replied solemnly, "The city lord and his wife were initially hesitant, but when they left this morning, the city lord was already writing the betrothal letter."
"Where is Huai Song?"
"The second young master was just able to get out of bed and walk. He didn't refuse when he heard about this. In the second young master's eyes, as long as someone is decent-looking, he probably wouldn't refuse."
"Alright, then let's wait for good news from the Sun family."
