Gu Yan was sitting in the room, pacing back and forth with a sullen brow. It had been seven days since he came to the Xie family. He had proposed the marriage seven days ago, and the gift of five hundred thousand gold coins and a bunch of treasures had also arrived. But in the past few days, the Xie family had
The master always refuses with various reasons. Although he didn't explicitly ask him to give up, doesn't this behavior make it clear that he doesn't want his daughter to marry him?
At first, he just thought that Xie Ningyan had been seriously ill for a long time. Mr. Xie saw hope that he could be cured, and he loved his daughter so much that he didn't want to marry her off so early. But as time went by, he felt more and more something was wrong.
Although the Xie family is second to none in this small Hanyue City, in Liuxun City, such a family with a fortune of hundreds of thousands of gold coins can only be regarded as a small middle-class family. And his Gu family is one of the best in Liuxun City.
Everyone, for the Xie family, it is completely high-impact.
Mr. Xie put him aside for this period of time, ignoring and showing no interest in the betrothal gifts he brought. However, since Xie Ningyan was still young, he wanted to see her opinion, or perhaps the illness was not completely cured yet.
If he really wanted to keep his daughter by his side, he could have said it openly. He was not an unreasonable person. At worst, Mr. Xie would also be taken to Liuxun City to settle down
At home, father and daughter can see each other every day.
He decided to go to Mr. Xie again to ask clearly. This time he must give a definite reply. If he really didn't want to betroth Xie Ningyan to him, then he would have to use another method.
Opening the door, he found Mr. Xie standing just outside the door. Gu Yan didn't know whether to be shocked or happy for a moment. Mr. Xie looked at him expressionlessly, which made Gu Yan feel a little worried.
"Master Gu, I want to confirm with you about Ning Yan's marriage."
The two of them sat down, and Xie Huai's first words made Gu Yan's heart filled with mixed emotions, extremely complicated, and she was afraid that what he said was rejection.
"Thank you, uncle, please speak." Gu Yan said politely. In any case, he had to maintain his impression before the real answer came out.
Xie Huai sighed and said: "Ning Yan's mother passed away as soon as she was born, and she got a strange disease herself. As a father, I have not been living a happy life for so many years. I always want to cure her disease. Now I want to ask her to cure her disease."
Thanks to Mr. Gu, I got the Ice Feather Snake Gallbladder, which helped Ning Yan's illness improve. I would like to thank Mr. Gu here first."
After saying that, Xie Huai stood up and bowed to Gu Yan. Gu Yan quickly helped him up and said, "Uncle, you don't have to be like this. Miss Xie has a great life and has been protected by God to avoid this difficulty. I'm just going with the flow."
"You're welcome, my dear nephew. If it weren't for you, Ning Yan's illness would probably be hopeless in this life." Old Xie Huai burst into tears and held Gu Yan's arm.
This sentence made Gu Yan ecstatic. Xie Huai called him a wise nephew. This title had never been given before. It is possible that Xie Huai had recognized him.
"My good nephew is a talented person. He has a distinguished family background, high talents, and extraordinary courage. At a young age, he dares to take the ice feather snake gallbladder. Logically speaking, between you and Ning Yan, it is indeed my Xie family who has the upper hand, but I have never done anything for it in my life.
Ning Yan has done anything before, so he shamelessly accepted the marriage for her this time."
Gu Yan couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and an excited look gradually appeared on his face. He grabbed Xie Huai's sleeve and said in a trembling voice: "Really?"
"Nephew, don't be so surprised. If Ningyan knew that her future husband could be so good, she might not be happy before it's too late. I didn't respond before, so I was really a little scared. Ningyan has always liked purity and was afraid of my nephew's state of mind.
His temperament and personality are not in line with Ning Yan's preferences, but in the past seven days I have observed my nephew, he gets along harmoniously with the servants in my family, his temperament is excellent, and his conversation is not good.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Fan has been waiting quietly for seven consecutive days and has never exceeded the rules, so I decided that my nephew is also a quiet and elegant man with a righteous heart and is a perfect match for Ning Yan." Xie Huai patted Gu Yan's hand and said with a smile.
"
Only then did Gu Yan realize that Mr. Xie was testing him. After all, she was the daughter he had raised for sixteen years. How could he marry a man he had never met and whose character he had never known? Now Mr. Xie has determined that Gu Yan
If he is a person worth trusting for the rest of his life, then he should not change his decision again.
"Uncle, you are so complimentary." Gu Yan didn't know what to say for a while. Fortunately, he didn't mess around in the past few days. He thought he had a pretty good temper, but he couldn't wait for news for seven days in a row, and he was also complaining. But at this moment
, all the grievances disappeared.
"It's just..." Suddenly, Xie Huai's face darkened and he made an embarrassed expression.
"Uncle, if you have any questions, just tell me. As long as my nephew can do it, I will spare no effort to do it." Gu Yan saw Xie Huai's expression and said immediately.
Xie Huai hesitated for a moment, then seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Seventeen years ago, Ning Yan's mother ran away from me, a poor scholar. I have never been able to give him a decent wedding, and now I don't have the qualifications either."
I'm going to give her a wedding again, so I want to make this wedding a little more grand. I'll hold it in Hanyue City first, and then go back to Xunliu City to hold it again. Don't worry, nephew, I'll pay you half a million gold coins.
, I will never let my nephew’s family bear the burden entirely. I just want to make up for the debt I have owed to their mother and daughter over the years."
Gu Yan said with a smile: "My nephew thought it was some big event. Uncle, please don't worry. It's just two weddings. With the background of my Gu family, I can still afford it. When the time comes, I will first invite my father and mother to come to Hanyue City. You
You can meet your in-laws when you are old, and when the time comes, you can return to Xuncheng and buy a house there so that you can live comfortably, and you and Ningyan can meet each other at any time."
"No, no." Xie Huai refused: "I have been in Hanyue City for more than ten years, and I still have some feelings for it. I will not go to Liuxun City to disturb your lives. If you want to come back one day,
Just come back, there is no need to make any arrangements for me, but the wedding is here, and I still have some requirements for the team to welcome the bride."
Gu Yanzheng sat up to show his respect.
"Uncle, please tell me."
"When Ning Yan's mother and I got married, there was no one at the wedding, and the wedding team was even more idiotic. I didn't have the strength to protect my wife, but I want to see if you have the strength to protect my daughter.
." Xie Huai said seriously.
"My wedding team must have at least fifty strong men from the Tianyuan realm and one strong man from the Yuanluo realm to protect me. Only then can I safely marry my daughter to your Liuxun City. Although the two cities are not far apart,
But there are still dozens of miles to go. If something unexpected happens on the way, how can I have the honor to go down to see her mother? Don’t worry, my dear nephew, you can invite these strong people, and I will share some of the expenses."
Gu Yan was silent for a while, then he looked at Xie Huai, his eyes were sincere and his emotions were real, it was clearly a cry from the heart.
It's not that he can't invite fifty Tianyuan Realm masters. In fact, there are more than a dozen Tianyuan Realm masters in his family alone, and his grandfather is a strong Yuanluo Realm master. But the Gu family has always set their sights on others.
Many people can't stand his Gu family's style. He has to invite fifty Tianyuan realm people, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get them without four or five million gold coins. He still has the final say in the Gu family, although he is liked by his grandfather.
, but a wedding costs nearly two million gold coins. In the final analysis, we still need to think about it again. However, Xie Huai said that he would share some of the cost, so he didn't have much objection.
"Okay, uncle, don't worry, I will definitely invite fifty strong men from the Tianyuan realm. As for those from the Yuanluo realm, I will definitely invite them."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Strong man, I will ask a centurion from the martial-level mercenary group to escort him, and he will definitely let Ning Yan return to Liuxun City safely." Gu Yan said very firmly.
"Okay, this way, I don't have any other requirements, so I can safely entrust my daughter to you. Gu Yan, don't let me down." Xie Huai breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes.
Gu Yan is equally happy. He is about to marry Xie Ningyan, whom he has longed for. I am afraid he will have no regrets in this life. Although he is from the Gu family, he is different from other juniors in the Gu family. His personality is slightly silent and he is never willing to fight with others.
He is ruthless, low-key in his work, but very talented, so he is very popular with the old man. He is emotionally single-minded and has never had an unclear relationship with any woman in the past twenty years. Now that he has met the love of his life, naturally he cannot treat him casually
.
"What about the wedding date..." Gu Yan asked.
There is an engagement, but the wedding date has not been decided, which makes people feel a little bit uneasy.
Xie Huai slapped his head and said with a smile: "Look at me, I'm such an old fool. Well, the wedding is scheduled for seven days later. Seven days later is an auspicious day. I should make preparations earlier. After all, this life-long event must not be delayed. My dear nephew.
How about going back earlier to make preparations?"
"Seven days..." Gu Yan thought in his heart, and suddenly smiled and confirmed: "Okay, I will come to marry Ning Yan in seven days. Then, my son-in-law will be here in advance to congratulate his father-in-law on his happy event!"
"Hahaha... you kid, go quickly." Xie Huai squinted his eyes and smiled, patting Gu Yan on the shoulder. Gu Yan left the room with excitement, leaving Xie Huai alone in the room.
.
The smile on Xie Huai's face gradually solidified, followed by an indifferent face.
"As the old saying goes, I am sorry for you. After everything is over, I will try my best to save your life. As for Ning Yan, if she is willing to follow you, I will not stop her. If she is not willing, if you dare to force me, I will kill you!
"
"I have killed so many people. In fact, I should have died a long time ago. But it will be soon, seven days. After seven days, everything will be solved. By then, I will be able to have a good sleep and sleep forever.
Have a good sleep..."
…
In the World of Warcraft Forest, Yan Ting smashed the fangs of the last giant toothed tiger with one punch, and locked the giant toothed tiger's throat with his arms. The roar of the giant toothed tiger could not escape from the throat. It kicked on all four legs and struggled continuously.
But as time went by, it gradually became quieter.
Yan Ting let go of the giant-toothed tiger, opened its chest, took out the black beast core, and then threw it into the space ring.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Yan Ting frowned and let out a sigh. Less than fifty miles away from Hanyue City, he was unexpectedly attacked by a motley group of monsters. What kind of evil had he done?
"Finally we're almost there." Yan Ting looked into the distance and murmured.
In the past twenty days, except for sleeping, fighting and being chased, he never put Duan Ya down. Even if he was fighting a monster, as long as it was within his ability, he would try to carry Duan Ya on his back and fight it.
After a battle, now, his power is stronger than before.
However, I still can't hold Duan Ya with both hands, that is to say, I still can't use this weapon.
However, he clearly felt that walking with the cliff on his back was not as strenuous as before. At least he could run now. If he continued like this, he would practice for another half a year...
"What a crime!" Yan Ting complained indifferently, and continued walking in the direction of Hanyue City. When he returned to Hanyue City, he must take a bath first. After this trip, he would not take a bath for ten days!
