MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 450 Talk about marriage

This was the first time that Gu Shaoyu heard that Su Erlang was the next proposed patriarch of the Su family, but he went to the Gu family for Gu Xiaochun, which would ruin his own future. Thinking of this, Gu Shaoyu Silence fell.

Seeing him like this, Mr. Su patted his shoulder and said relieved.

“Erlang himself is willing, and so are we, so don’t think about things here. The most important thing is to take good care of yourself. Don’t forget, when you go to Sui’an City, there will still be a tough battle to fight!”

Mr. Su's words were about the crown prince's accession to the throne, which involved the remnants of the previous dynasty. The tide in the East Palace must have lifted all boats this time, but as the old saying goes, when the moon is full, it will wane, and when the water is full, it will overflow. Who knows what will happen behind this cluster of flowers? There won't be any problems, so it's better to be more careful.

 After finishing what he wanted to say, Gu Shaoyu turned back.

It’s only ten days and a half months until New Year’s Eve, so we still have to prepare what we need to prepare.

Logically speaking, this is the first year after the Gu family has shed their filial piety, and it should be a lively one. However, so many things have happened one after another, and even if the Gu family wants to invite them, they may not be able to invite them. Those people on.

 So, I thought it would be better to have a simple New Year.

In Qiwu Courtyard, Du Jingyi was instructing the housekeeper to arrange this year's New Year's Eve events. It seemed that the New Year's Eve celebrations were simple, but the cost was far higher than in many years past. This was because the repairs of the Gu family cemetery also provided funds for the soldiers who were injured and died in the war. Pensions, etc., cost nearly 100,000 taels.

This year’s revenue alone is definitely not enough.

 Fortunately, when Du Jingyi took over, the Gu family's business was still profitable, so there was naturally a surplus.

“Let’s just do it this way for now. If there’s anything inappropriate, we’ll discuss it later.”

The housekeeper said yes and left the main room. When he happened to come out, he met Gu Shaoyu who had returned. After saying hello, he leaned over and left. When Gu Shaoyu entered the main room, he saw Du Jingyi writing in the account book. The uppercut was drawn very carefully.

 “What is madam doing?”

With one word, Du Jingyi, who was carefully calculating his accounts, was brought back to reality.

 “The general is back?”

"Um."

When Gu Shaoyu came over, Du Jingyi smelled the smell of blood on his body, so even if the other person didn't say anything, she knew what he was going to do, but she was also a sensible person and would not poke at the painful spots, so He poured a cup of tea to warm his body and then said.

"It's the end of the year, and the accounts that need to be settled need to be settled. There will definitely be no surplus this year, and maybe some supplements from the previous two years will be added in, so I'll do the math and see if there's anything I can do to streamline things. The place, and besides, weren’t the original Gu family properties replaced a lot by Qifang, covertly or covertly? So I thought that I would take advantage of these few months to transfer everything, so as to avoid trouble in the future. "

"The property of Qifang was swallowed up by Su Yan and Tong's three families. It's easy for the Su family and the Yan family to talk about it, but if the Tong family swallowed it up, is it convenient for you to get it back?"

Gu Shaoyu’s words made Du Jingyi laugh.

"The general has forgotten my origin? The book he sent to the Tong family naturally listed it carefully. What they took away were those that had nothing to do with the main property of the Gu family. The ones that really need to be replaced are those held by the concubine. .”

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu also felt that his question was a bit unnecessary. After drinking the warming tea, he said calmly.

"I went to Su's house today." "Is it to find a way out?"

“Well, my uncle said that we can let Erlang and his wife help with this matter. Then we can find a way out for the Gu family.”

Du Jingyi was a little surprised when he first heard this, but he quickly understood what Mrs. Su meant, and then nodded and said.

“My great-uncle also took care of the good of the family and inherited the blessing of being an old man.”

Gu Shaoyu also meant the same thing, and then he said something.

"Let's see if there is a suitable time in these two days. I think we should let Lang'er and Yan Sanlang get engaged first. It was originally agreed upon, so there is no need for Third Aunt to worry too much."

 His words are exactly what Du Jingyi meant.

Although the third aunt took care of their emotions and did not mention the matter again after she left her filial piety, everyone also knew that the only thing she was looking forward to in her heart was that the matter could be settled properly, otherwise every family would blossom and bear fruit. , the branches are luxuriant, but Lang'er is still being delayed, and they can't bear it.

“Don’t worry, General, I have thought about this with you. I sent the news to my aunt yesterday and made an appointment to come home early tomorrow morning to discuss it.”

“I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I’ll stay at home with you to deal with it.”

"good."

The couple talked for a while about the gossip at home, and then became quiet. Gu Shaoyu took some notebooks and read them one by one, while Du Jingyi concentrated on calculating her accounts. It can be regarded as a rare quiet time.

The next day, Mrs. Xing came to the door early in the morning. Naturally, Yan Sanlang and Xing Zhao appeared with him.

As for the third aunt and Gu Xiaolang, they both got up early and washed themselves carefully. When Du Jingyi saw them, he even said something joking.

“Langmei is particularly beautiful today.”

Gu Xiaolang's face was a little red, but she was not particularly shy, so she only blushed for a moment before looking expectantly at Yan Sanlang opposite.

Because he had blocked several assassination attempts for Master Xing, Yan Sanlang was injured at the moment. Originally, Mrs. Xing Zhao could only accompany him for a while.

Brother is getting married, and his cousin is getting married. He, the "Yue Lao" who has done countless matchmaking in the middle, naturally wants to sit at the head table. Therefore, before the others have spoken, he is cheering.

"We are all people who know the basics. Don't follow the rules of those sour wives. Let's open the door and speak openly. How about we decide the date of engagement, the date of the offer, and the date of marriage together today? Come on, it will save you the hassle of running back and forth."

As soon as he said this, he was interrupted by Mrs. Xing.

"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about! Can Lang'er get married so casually? Let me tell you, of course you have to prepare carefully. It will take more than half a year at least for this marriage to be a beautiful one, don't you think so? Third sister-in-law.”

Third Aunt doesn't care about these things now. As long as Yan Sanlang is a good person and can live happily with her daughter in the future, she will be satisfied. What's more, as she said that day, she will live with her daughter and son-in-law in the future. Well, so she really doesn't care about these ostentation things.
