Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 48
Su Qi was too enthusiastic, which made Gu Yunqiao a little embarrassed for a while. She didn't know how to react. Looking left and right, she couldn't see her brother Gu Yunji, so she became more and more anxious, wishing that someone would come to rescue her immediately.

As she wished, Cheng Yan standing next to him quickly stood up, grabbed Su Qi's sleeve and pulled him and Gu Yunqiao a few steps away: "Su Qi, you scared the girl."

Then he showed Gu Yunqiao an apologetic smile, and said politely: "Cheng Yan, this is Su Qi, and we are all your brother's classmates in Luxi Academy. Just now, my friend got carried away and offended Gu Yunqiao." Miss, I hope Miss Gu will forgive me."

The young man in front of him seemed much gentler and more polite than the one just now. Gu Yunqiao calmed down, let go of his defenses, and said softly: "It's okay. If you are my brother's friend, then you are our guest. We can't talk about it." What an offense."

At this time, Su Qi also realized that he was rude just now, and said with some embarrassment: "After I am a general, I am very nervous, and my behavior was a bit out of line just now. Miss Gu, don't take it to heart."

It wasn't such a big deal in the first place, so Gu Yunqiao naturally didn't want to worry about it, so she put the topic to rest in a few sentences and asked, "Did you two see where my brother went?"

Cheng Yan said: "Yun Ji and Mr. Gu are having a toast in the front yard, but Miss Gu has something important to ask him?"

Gu Yunqiao shook her head slightly, and said, "It's not really important, I just think that if he drinks too much today and feels uncomfortable, I will send him a few anti-alcohol pills."

Cheng Yan smiled and said: "So that's the case. It's just that there are too many guests in the front yard, and Yun Ji won't be able to come here for a while, so why don't I pass it on for Miss, how about it?"

The guests in the front yard exchanged glasses, and many of them were drunk at the moment. If Gu Yunqiao went to find Gu Yunji in person, he might be bumped by someone who was too drunk.Thinking about being molested by a drunk at her grandfather's birthday banquet in Fucheng last year made her even more hesitant.

At this moment, Cheng Yan's proposal can be said to be the best of both worlds, and Gu Yunqiao also felt that it was very appropriate, and she couldn't help feeling more fond of this gentle, courteous and thoughtful young man: "Then thank you two sons." Pass it to Cheng Yan.

Here, Gu Yunji is toasting with Gu Yunxiao. Seeing the bridegroom official coming, the guests are more or less teasing. One or two want to pour wine for Gu Yunxiao, but Gu Yunji is not always able to push back when he blocks it. Take it off, you can only raise your neck and dry the wine by yourself.

Gu Kaili was so happy that his face was flushed from drinking at the moment, and his body was full of strong alcohol smell. Seeing Gu Yunxiao and the others walking towards him, he proudly showed off to the guests at the same table: "Did you see, this is my Eldest nephew! Their marriage was facilitated by me from the beginning to the end!"

In fact, it's not that exaggerated, Gu Kaili just pulled a string at the very beginning, Gu Yunxiao didn't bother to argue his drunken words on this occasion, seeing that Gu Kaili couldn't stand still, he quickly supported his crumbling body: "Uncle, please sit down quickly, don't fall."

Gu Kaili immediately put his weight on Gu Yunxiao, leaned on his shoulder and said, "How can I fall if I stand so steady? Yunxiao, today is your big day, so you should have a good drink no matter what, come on, uncle respects you !"

Gu Yunxiao couldn't refuse, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, but Gu Kaili was still not satisfied, and wanted to add more wine to his glass: "One glass is not enough, two more glasses!"

Seeing this, Gu Yunji quickly took Gu Kaili's arm, and supported his body by himself, and said with a smile: "Uncle, I can't drink any more. You can see that you are already drunk. If you want to drink, my nephew will accompany you."

"I'm not drunk yet... Yo, Yunji!" Gu Kaili opened his blurred drunken eyes, and when he saw clearly that the person in front of him was Gu Yunji, he immediately became excited, and his mind was somewhat clear.

"I heard that you worshiped the head of the mountain as your teacher in Luxi Academy, and you were received by His Majesty. You are so young, and you have achieved such achievements. You are really a remarkable young man!"

Perhaps it was because of Gu Yunxiao's marriage, Gu Kaili became addicted to being a matchmaker, and when he caught Gu Yunji, he began to ramble: "Your elder brother is married, so is your own marriage settled? Did your parents tell you that they kissed?"

Gu Yunji couldn't laugh or cry: "Uncle, I'm only 15 years old, and it's still very early to get married."

Gu Kaili waved his hand disapprovingly: "15 years old is not too young. Uncle was already engaged when he was your age. Even if you are not in a hurry to marry a wife, you can get engaged first. Let me tell you, I have a colleague's daughter... "

"Uncle!" Gu Yunxiao suddenly said, and changed the subject calmly, "I haven't seen cousin Mingxuan for a long time, how is he doing in the capital recently?"

Mentioning the most promising son, Gu Kaili couldn't hide his pride: "Xuan'er has just been appointed as an official in the middle of the matter, and now he works in the household department. Last month, he was engaged to Pingyanghou's first daughter."

Gu Yunji next to him showed a very surprised look: "Really? Fortunately, my cousin didn't get married so early, otherwise how could there be such a good marriage?"

Gu Kaili was very satisfied with his reaction, and became more and more flustered: "That's not true! Last year I was very worried about Xuan'er's marriage. Who would have thought that he would be attracted by Pingyanghou later and betrothed his daughter to him. He is Lord Hou's son-in-law, so we really didn't worry about it at all."

"What Uncle said is that no one can predict what will happen in the future." Gu Yunji walked out as he spoke, "Then I don't need to worry about my nephew's marriage." After finishing speaking, before Gu Kaili could react, he pulled Gu Kaili Yun Xiao left, and soon went to the next table to toast.

After a round of toasting, Gu Yunji himself drank a lot, his mind was dizzy, and his stomach was also uncomfortable. After parting from Gu Yunxiao, he was about to find some tea to drink, when he saw Cheng Yan He and Su Qi walked towards him.

Cheng Yan handed him the hangover pill, and said: "Your sister gave you the hangover pill. She went to the banquet to look for you, but she didn't see you, so she went back first."

Gu Yunji thanked him, took the pill and swallowed it with water, the power of the medicine slowly dissipated in his stomach, dispelling the stuffy feeling, and he felt much better immediately.

Su Qi asked: "We see that you are toasting and don't want to disturb you. You have been waiting here for a long time. It stands to reason that it won't take much time to complete a round of toasting. Why did you delay for so long?"

Gu Yunji smiled wryly: "My uncle was drunk, he dragged me to match me, and even introduced his colleague's daughter. I couldn't shirk it for a while, so I was delayed."

As if thinking of something, Su Qi glanced at him with a half-smile, and said meaningfully: "It's a good thing you refused, otherwise you will miss a marriage that is thousands of times better than this."

Gu Yunji looked puzzled: "Marriage? How can I have a thousand times better marriage?"

Su Qi punched him, and said bitterly: "You don't know, do you? Everyone said that the reason why Xu Shanzhang wanted to choose students from this year's freshmen was because he wanted to choose a son-in-law. His daughter You are only fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as you. The head of the mountain regards you so highly and treats you as his own son, don't you realize it at all?"

Gu Yunji looked weird, and his tone was a bit unbelievable: "Impossible? Although the teacher is very good to me, it's because I'm his apprentice. Isn't that what it should be? Besides, he never told me Where did you hear about this?"

"Can this kind of thing be explained clearly? Isn't it all natural?" Su Qi seemed to know this well, "In a few years, you passed the imperial examination and became a Juren and Jinshi, and you got along with Miss Xu so well. The feelings that have been accumulated for a long time, everything will come naturally, and there is no need for the head of the mountain to do anything himself."

Cheng Yan also said: "You know Fang Zigui, right? He wanted to become Shanzhang Xu's disciple so much because of this matter. In terms of the time spent with Miss Xu and the importance of the Shanzhang, it is difficult for a good friend's son to go beyond the personal The apprentices who taught each other."

Seeing that Gu Yunji still couldn't believe it, Cheng Yan patted him on the shoulder: "I'm afraid you are the only one who doesn't know about this level of relationship, but you don't have to think too much about it. No one will reveal this kind of thing. Like Su Qi As I said, let everything take its course, if you have that fate, it will be good, if you don't, you won't lose anything."

Hearing what they said, Gu Yunji was caught off guard, and his mind was in a mess for a while.

He might...become the teacher's son-in-law?Gu Yunji was a little hard to imagine.Although he thought Xu Shuhua was a very good woman, beautiful and talented, quick-witted, studious and generous, which left a good impression on him, but he really didn't think about it in this direction.

If he must marry a wife in the future, if the other party is Xu Shuhua, it seems not bad... Forget it, it's too far away.Gu Yunji put aside the messy thoughts in his head, and said to the two of them: "You guys don't talk about this anymore, I'm not afraid of anything, don't ruin the girl's reputation."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, as long as you treat it normally." Cheng Yan said with a smile, and then put the matter aside.

The wedding banquet didn't rest until dusk, the guests dispersed one after another, and the decorated Gu's mansion gradually became quiet.After bidding farewell to Cheng Yan and settling down Su Qi, Gu Yunji went back to his room to rest early with exhaustion all over his body.

The servants were cleaning and cleaning in the afterglow of the setting sun. At this time, there was no one else to bother them. Under the expectation of the new wife, the groom entered the bridal chamber with a feeling of apprehension.

The candles were flickering, the figures were facing each other, and the whispers of the couple in the wedding room were inaudible. Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang settled a big matter in their hearts, and their warm smiles might stay on their faces for several days.The busy day finally came to an end, and Gu Yunxiao's wedding came to an end amidst the blessings of everyone.

The scent of zongzi from outside the alley gradually fades away, and the wormwood hanging outside the door gradually withers. The short-lived Dragon Boat Festival passed by in a festive and lively atmosphere. It was late at night, and people took a break to prepare for the sun to rise. Keep doing what you have to do.
