Chapter 817 My cousin is reborn and wants to snatch my marriage (26)
After Ming Xunhao Gu Shi was first engaged, it was soon the day for Gu Shiyao and Tang Buqing to get married.
Unlike Gu Shiyao who was full of joy and looking forward to the marriage, Tang Buqing was full of reluctance and shame, but he could not show it and had to put on a smile and prepare for the wedding. Therefore, before the wedding day, he already felt physically and mentally exhausted, and his disgust for his wife Gu Shiyao, who was not yet married to him, became increasingly serious.
The marriage of Duke Anguo's daughter was naturally a major event in the capital, but the scandal that Gu Shiyao had caused before was so huge that almost everyone in the upper circle knew about it. In order to avoid embarrassment, Duke Anguo had to hold the wedding in a low-key manner and only invited relatives and friends who were close to the mansion.
This was even more so for Tang Buqing. He was already reluctant about this marriage, and only some neighbors and a few colleagues who were relatively friendly to him were invited. Therefore, when the wedding day came, he felt quite deserted and lonely.
Even though Gu Shiyao was a bride who did not need to socialize, she felt that this day was nothing like the grand wedding she had imagined.
"Mom, why does the atmosphere outside seem so boring?" Gu Shiyao felt something was weird and asked Zhou in confusion under her red veil.
Zhou smiled awkwardly and said, "The living room outside is so far away from your yard, so the sound is naturally quieter. It's normal that you can't hear it."
"Is that so?" Gu Shiyao was half-believing and half-doubting, but couldn't figure out what was wrong, so she had to stop pursuing it. Anyway, after today, she would become Tang Buqing's legitimate wife, the future prime minister's wife, so other things would not be so important.
Gu Shiyao quickly regained her joy and excitement, waiting for her new husband to come and pick her up with great anticipation.
Soon the time for the bride arrived. Gu Shiyao was carried on the bridal sedan by her eldest brother. She looked down from under her red veil and saw the groom Tang Buqing's boots. Suddenly, a sweet feeling emerged in her heart...
After the wedding ceremony, she was sent to the bridal chamber.
After waiting for a long time, all the guests left and Tang Buqing came back drunk. Gu Shiyao was excitedly waiting for Tang Buqing to say something sweet to her and lift her veil, but she suddenly saw the red veil being lifted without her being mentally prepared.
She paused and felt a little disappointed, but quickly convinced herself that these were all trivial matters, so she looked at Tang Buqing shyly, thinking that he would also look at her affectionately, but she didn't expect that she was met with a pair of eyes that were indifferent and a little disgusted.
"Husband, what's wrong?" Gu Shiyao's expression suddenly froze and she asked in confusion.
"Nothing, I forgot about the weather. Take a rest. I'll go wash up first." After Tang Buqing finished speaking, he left the room quickly without waiting for her to answer, leaving Gu Shiyao no time to talk to him again.
But when she thought that tonight was their wedding night, Gu Shiyao blushed again, full of anticipation and joy...
However, Tang Buqing, who went to the study to wash up, was very reluctant to go to the wedding night. He took a long time to take a shower and didn't want to fulfill his obligations at all.
But he couldn't, because this marriage not only concerned him and Gu Shiyao, but also him and the Anguo Mansion, and he had to take it seriously.
But he just couldn't get over it, so he made up his mind, found a pill he had prepared beforehand, closed his eyes and swallowed it. Soon, he felt a burning sensation in his body, and he strode towards the new house...
Gu Shiyao got the wedding night she had always dreamed of.
But for some reason, when Tang Buqing woke up the next day, he no longer had the strong passion for her that he had in the bridal chamber. Instead, he was very cold. Gu Shiyao was puzzled for a moment, but she soon thought that it was due to Tang Buqing's character. He was destined to be an ambitious and upwardly mobile man. He spent all his time in officialdom, so naturally he didn't care that much about his family. This was understandable.
However, Gu Shiyao had been looking forward to this marriage for a long time and had great expectations for Tang Buqing. In her previous life, she had always heard stories about how loving and affectionate Gu Shichu and he were, so she married Tang Buqing in this life and expected that Tang Buqing would be loving and affectionate with her. But the reality was not as she imagined. Tang Buqing was too cold to her and rarely slept with her. Sometimes, except for coming back to have a meal with her at night, he would stay in the study all the time. Even if she lowered herself to invite him, he refused. This made Gu Shiyao feel uneasy...
Gu Shichu didn't know that Gu Shiyao's newlywed life was not as good as she had imagined. She had to be busy with her own wedding now. After Gu Shiyao got married, her second cousin also got married soon, and now it was her turn.
Her wedding was much more lively than Gu Shiyao's wedding. So when Gu Shiyao came back to see her off, she saw the hall full of guests, the house full of laughter and joy, and the lively atmosphere, which was even more grand than her own wedding. She felt very jealous and said to Gu Shichu sourly:
"Third sister, you are so glorious today. Your wedding today was much more grand than mine. You are worthy of marrying into the Qiyang Marquis's mansion and becoming the Crown Prince's wife..."
Gu Shichu nodded and said without any shame: "It is indeed more lively than when you married your brother-in-law, but this is determined by the status of both parties. If you want to blame someone, just blame your brother-in-law's family background, which is not as good as that of the Marquis of Qiyang Mansion."
As soon as she finished speaking, the bridesmaids and guests in the room were all shocked. They didn't expect that she would dare to say that, and they all looked at Gu Shiyao at the same time.
Gu Shiyao was so angry that her face turned blue and she was shaking all over: "You! Are you showing off that you married better than me?"
Gu Shichu looked at her in surprise: "Isn't this true? I should thank you, elder sister, for giving the prince to me."
Gu Shiyao was shaking all over, looking at Gu Shichu with a fierce look in her eyes, as if she was a demon that could devour people, her eyes were red: "Okay, Gu Shichu, you finally revealed your true colors... Don't rush to show off to me. Now my husband's status and position are indeed not as good as those of the Marquis of Qiyang Mansion, but things change over time, don't underestimate anyone!
Who can guarantee that the Qiyang Marquis's Mansion will always be so high and mighty, and that my husband will always be in his current position? Not to mention that the Qiyang Marquis's son is just an incompetent dandy, and my husband is a young talent with unlimited prospects. One day, I will be a rich and powerful wife, and you can only look at me in despair..."
The more Gu Shiyao spoke, the more confident she became. The anger she had just felt had almost disappeared. She seemed to have seen the scene in her words, so she couldn't help but look at Gu Shichu with contempt.
Humph, these people are all blind and don't know the real man. Their husbands will be the most powerful ministers in the future. Let's see who will laugh at whom when the time comes...
