"How do you know so much? Are you still following his family's movements?" Gu Wanping increased the strength of her hands.
Yao Dingliang begged for mercy, "Madam, please be gentle, or I'll tear my ears off. Hu Zhaoge's father is an important official in the court, so I'm keeping a close eye on him. This is human nature, but I have absolutely no selfish motives."
"From what you said, you agree that Wenyuan should marry that country girl?" Gu Wanping asked.
"Getting married and having children is a major event in life. As for who Wenyuan will live with for the rest of his life, that is Wenyuan's own choice. Whether he chooses a noble lady of the current dynasty or a girl from the countryside, we should treat them well. You think Wenyuan is the apple of your eye, but isn't that girl the apple of her parents' eyes? We should put ourselves in their shoes, cherish them, and treat them well." Yao Dingliang took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.
"Of course I know this truth. I'm not a wicked mother-in-law..." Gu Wanping said in a low voice.
"But I think Wenyuan deserves better, not just any Tom, Dick or Harry." Gu Wanping was still angry.
"If you don't go and see for yourself, how do you know whether the person is good or not?" Yao Dingliang poured himself another cup of tea.
"You're right. I'll pack my luggage now and go to Wenyuan to take a look!" Gu Wanping hurried away with the maid.
Yao Dingliang glanced at the impetuous Gu Wanping and smiled.
"Is it okay for me to wear this? Is it too formal?" Gu Wanping showed her new dress to Yao Dingliang. Yao Dingliang shook his head and said, "No, Madam, you will look good in any dress."
"Are the gifts I brought too few?" Gu Wanping asked as she pulled Yao Dingliang to look at the gifts in several carriages.
"Madam, aren't you just going to take a look and stop them from getting married? Why did you prepare so many gifts?" Yao Dingliang took a look and knew what was going on, but he still kept a curious expression on his face and asked.
"Oh, you said my son has no money in his pocket. As a mother, can I let my son marry someone without a penny? Wouldn't that be a slap in my face? I, Gu Wanping, have never lost to anyone in my life. When I marry a wife, naturally I can't be worse than others!" Gu Wanping said with her hands on her hips.
Seeing her like this, Yao Dingliang smiled and said, "Yes, yes, my wife is the most powerful. No one can compare to you. Didn't you say that my son deserves a better woman? Why, are you defeated before the battle?"
"Well, I'm making two preparations. One is that I'm going to meet that girl and see who on earth is capable of making my son disobey me. On the other hand, if I can't stop her, I'll have to support Wen Yuan and save the situation. Of course I will! I won't lose no matter what!" Gu Wanping had a winning smile on her face.
Yao Dingliang ordered the guards around him, "Take good care of the Madam, and don't let anything go wrong!"
The guards on both sides responded.
Gu Wanping set off towards Guangquan Mansion with several carriages full of gifts.
