Chapter 25 (2/2)
Su Zheng lowered his voice and said slowly: ”yesterday, my uncle inspected people's homework. Everything else was normal. Only he attached great importance to Xie Xian and asked about many extra-curricular matters. After that, I thought about it carefully. My uncle's look at Xie Xian was very meaningful. ”
Gu Jiu asked in a low voice: ”why did my father look at Xie Xian differently? Did Su Biao have a conclusion?”
Su Zheng nodded and solemnly said, ”uncle seems to be looking at his son-in-law.”
”Ah?” Gu Gu's face was surprised, ”can't my father intend to marry Gu Yue to Xie Xian?”
Gu Jiu and Su Zhengqi were silent, neither of them said anything.
Gu Gu realized that it was wrong, ”am I wrong? Who is not Gu Yue
”Don't worry, brother.”
Gu Jiu looked at Su Zheng, ”Su Biao brother should have other news.”
Su Zheng laughed, ”as expected, I can't hide anything from my cousin. Shunzi, you come in. ”
The boy shunzi came into the room and said, ”hello to master Biao and miss Biao.”
Su Zheng said, ”shunzi, tell the girl the news you've heard.”
”Yes
Shunzi slightly bowed, ”these days, I often pull three GUI, who is the little boy beside Xie, to drink and play with money. I'm familiar with it.Yesterday, the young master ordered me to inquire about Xie's father and son, and I took Sangui to drink and play with money.
Sangui was advised by me to drink more. After he was drunk, he really revealed some secrets. ”
Gu Jiu asked, ”what's the inside story?”
Shunzi whispered: ”Sangui said that this time Xie's father and son came to Jinzhou to send money to Xie's family, and the other was to get married.
He also said that Mr. Xie married a sick rice seedling and got a dowry in vain after two years
”What?”
Gu Gu was so angry that he jumped, ”my father is not looking at the marriage for Gu Yue, but for his sister.
Knowing that Xie's family harbors evil intentions, his father is so confused that he even betrothes his sister to Xie Xian. No, I have to ask my father
”Don't worry, cousin. Listen to my cousin first.”
Su Zheng stopped Gu Lin for fear of bad things.
Gu Gu looks back at Gu Jiu, his eyes full of worry, anger, a look of anxiety.
”Sister, let's meet father together. Never let your father betroth you to Xie Xian. ”
Gu Jiu smiles. Her brother's concern for her makes her feel very warm.
”Don't be impatient, brother,” she said
”How can it not be urgent. In case your father really betroths you to Xie Xian, what should I do
Gu Jiu slightly shakes his head, ”brother thinks, father will listen to us?”
Gu was stunned.
Yeah, Dad can't listen to them.
The so-called marriage event is the order of parents and the words of matchmaker.
If he does, he will not change his father's decision. On the contrary, he may urge his father to make up his mind to marry his sister to Xie Xian.
But
Gu is full of worry, ”it's no use looking for father, so what should we do? Is it useful to beat Xie Xian? ”
Gu Jiu laughed, ”brother, don't worry. I'm trying to find a way. Su Biao, do you think my father is investigating Xie Xian? ”
Su Zheng nodded. I don't think that with my uncle's style of dealing with affairs, we should not be able to make a marriage so soon.
However, if Xie Xian behaves well, his uncle may actually marry his cousin to Xie Xian.
I've heard that since living in your mansion, Xie Xian seldom goes out and spends most of his time reading in the house. ”
Gu Gu said coldly, ”it must be pretending to win the favor of his father.”
Gu Jiu asked again, ”how about Xie Xian's knowledge?”
Su Zheng said, ”flat!”
The word ”Ping Ping” has already explained everything.
Gu Jiu chuckled softly, ”so Xie Xian could not become an official through the imperial examination.”
Su Zheng nodded. But my cousin has an idea? ”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”there are some ideas. Xie Xian doesn't really like reading. ”
Su Zheng affirmed, ”Xie Xian is not a scholar.”
Gu Zhen heard the speech and said angrily, ”I knew Xie Xian was hiding in his room reading. All of them were pretending to read.”
Gu nine pursed lips a smile, ”pretend to be good.”
