Gu Nanyan was slightly flustered, but recovered in a moment.
Shen Bei'an hooked his arm around her sleeve and smiled, "Why do you trust me so much?"
It's no secret among the young masters of the capital that Shen Bei'an is neither good at literature nor martial arts.
Although he was a graduate of the Beijing Junior Class, it was nothing special to many scions of prominent families.
"Because An'an is already very capable." Gu Nanyan reached out and ruffled his hair.
Such small gestures between husband and wife are actually harmless, but the two of them stopped abruptly.
Gu Nanyan pulled her hand back as if it had been burned, while Shen Bei'an stared straight at her.
"I...I'm sorry." Gu Nanyan lowered his head slightly, concealing the pain deep in his eyes. "Do you want to go play a little longer? I came here to remind you that we need to go to the Shen family's old house tomorrow night. Don't forget."
I received a call from Grandpa Shen this afternoon. Gu Nanyan had been in Europe for a long time after his marriage, and he had finally returned to China. Tomorrow was the Shen family's monthly gathering day.
Whether they are daughters-in-law or sons-in-law who married into the family, or daughters or sons who married out of the family, they all have to return to the Shen family on this day.
It's also a tradition for large families to stay connected.
The same applies to the Gu family.
Just as Shen Beian was about to ask a question, he heard Gu Nanyan change the subject. Although he was puzzled, he could only go along with what Gu Nanyan was saying.
etc.
Back to the Shen family's old house, hmm, Qingqing sent him a message.
What was it like in the original book this time?
It seems he's urging his nephew to get married, since his uncle, who's a few months younger than him, is already married.
Moreover, it seems that his second niece has found someone she loves, and even his younger sister has a boyfriend.
It's really unreasonable that the eldest son and grandson of the family, the future ruler, doesn't even have a companion by his side.
"Yes, I know. Qingqing just messaged me." Shen Bei'an remained calm, then suddenly blinked. Both the Gu family and the Shen family were wealthy and powerful families.
"What about the Gu family?" He had been here for so long, but he had never been to the Gu family's old house; he had been staying at Biluo Xiaozhu.
"Have you forgotten? The Gu family's old house is different from the Shen family's old house, which is in the city center. It's in Yunding Mountain in the suburbs. We go back on the 28th of each month. There are still a few days left, so there's no rush."
Yunding Mountain was bought by the Gu family's ancestor, who built the old house directly on the mountain. Although there is an elevator that goes directly to the top of the mountain, you can also go up by plane or car.
But on the 28th, when we returned to the old house, we had to climb up step by step.
In the past, Shen Bei'an always had to prepare for a long time beforehand. Climbing mountains was too difficult for a lazy rich second-generation with a penchant for drama.
Especially when you're hiking, you might run into some family-oriented people. No matter how much a man acts up, he can't let his wife carry him, right?
Shen Bei'an: Holy crap, getting to the Gu family's old residence involves climbing a mountain! I almost forgot!
"No, it's just that I've been a bit busy these past few days," Shen Bei'an said, barely suppressing his inner turmoil. "Another mountain climbing trip..."
I really don't know what kind of stupid ancestral teachings the Gu family has, for the sake of the health of future generations?
What about the babies?
There are also some children.
Just thinking about it is exhausting.
Gu Nanyan also knew Shen Bei'an's personality. "Yunding Mountain isn't very high. Climbing it from time to time is good for your health. Besides, every time we go up, we soak in the hot springs for a while and rest before we pay our respects to our elders."
Indeed, the hot springs on Yunding Mountain are natural, flowing water.
Although the empire has many hot springs, natural hot springs with flowing water are very rare.
There is also a place called Biluo Xiaozhu, which also has natural flowing water, but its area is naturally smaller than that of the old house.
