Chapter 230 I'm not working hard, it's you who worked hard
The eldest lady said: "Since you have decided to marry her, let the news go out. The day after tomorrow, Mrs. Anqing Hou will hold a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet. The invitation has been sent to her home. I will take Miao Xian to attend so that all ladies can attend."
Let’s meet, we have something in mind.”
It's said to be a chrysanthemum feast, but in fact the drunkard's intention is not to drink.
It is exactly the same as the peony feast in spring, which is prepared for young men and women.
There is an unmarried second lady in Yunying's family in Anqinghou's family. Mrs. Anqinghou seems to be interested in getting married. She sent three invitations to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion for this chrysanthemum appreciation banquet.
Gu Yudao: "My mother worked hard for me."
Gu Yu knew that the eldest lady had been a widow for many years and rarely went out.
But she is about to enter the court, and Ji Miaoxian has not yet married, so the eldest lady has to take the lead in this relationship.
Bringing Ji Miaoxian this time is also to dispel the idea of getting married to her by various governments.
The eldest lady said earnestly: "I don't have to work hard, it's you who work hard."
Gu Yu always felt that after returning from Jiangnan, her mother's eyes were full of sadness, but if her mother didn't say anything, she didn't ask.
Gu Yu said: "Sister, I wonder if you are willing to participate."
Without waiting for the eldest lady to answer, Gu Yu said: "That's all, don't ask."
What happened to my sister happened at the Peony Feast. It would be better not to ask her about such a similar Chrysanthemum Appreciation Feast.
I heard from Sang Ya that her sister liked the puppy very much and named her Fairy Stepping on the Moon.
Although her sister still refused to see her, she sent Sang Ya to give her some cakes and needlework.
Such a small gesture made Gu Yu very happy, which showed that her sister was also working hard to come out.
She can't rush.
When Gu Qiong was mentioned, the eldest lady's face became even more sad and she said, "It's hard to talk about your sister's marriage."
Gu Yudao: "It's hard to say, so I won't say it. With such a big government, are you afraid that you can't afford to raise a young lady? I have long been afraid that my sister will be wronged if she marries to another family. If she meets someone she likes in the future, she can let others
If I don't meet my wife, I will take care of my sister for the rest of my life."
The eldest lady sighed and said, "Okay."
On the other side of the eldest princess's house, the eldest princess gave Junze an ultimatum, saying: "You must go to the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet at the Anqing Hou Mansion. You are not young anymore, so you can't delay it any longer."
Junze looked at the invitation boredly and said, "Mom, are you sure that if I go, I won't be kicked out with a broom?"
The eldest princess became agitated and said, "You also know that the ladies and ladies in Kyoto don't want to see you?"
Junze said: "So what do you have to do for me? Is it annoying?"
The eldest princess felt a headache when she saw his lack of appetite and said, "You have to go to this chrysanthemum appreciation feast, and you have to go if you don't."
After she finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves and left.
Junze played with the invitation in his hand.
At this time, Guan Yan came in from outside and said, "Lan Yan is sending a message, Prince Gu."
Junze asked: "What's wrong with her?"
While delivering the invitation to the candle to burn.
Guan Yan was silent for a moment and said, "Let's go and enjoy the chrysanthemum banquet."
The tongues of fire quickly devoured the golden invitation.
Junze:...
"You go and cure your stutter now, immediately, immediately. I don't want to hear you gasping for breath again."
Guan Yan quietly retreated.
If his problem could be cured, it would have been cured long ago, why wait until now.
----------------------------------------
On the day of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, the eldest lady brought Ji Miaoxian back from the village. She changed into a light blue silk dress, with only a green jade hairpin holding her hair, which was simple and neat, yet beautiful.
The eldest lady didn't say anything. Ji Miaoxian was willing to marry Gu Yu even after knowing that she was a woman. She was already very pleased and naturally she wouldn't ask too much of Ji Miaoxian.
When the eldest lady took Ji Miaoxian to the Anqing Marquis Mansion, everyone else noticed.
Firstly, Ji Miaoxian's appearance is really amazing, and secondly, the Duke of Zhenguo's wife, who has been widowed for many years, finally goes out to socialize.
Mrs. Anqing Hou's wife Liu came up to him with a smile, her face stiffened the moment she saw Ji Miaoxian.
She was a well-rounded person, so she immediately reacted and said: "Sister-in-law, thank you for your favor and please come and take a seat with me."
After the eldest lady sat down, she said to Mrs. Anqing: "I haven't been out for a long time. How are you these years?"
Mrs. Anqing Hou whispered in the eldest lady's ear: "It's good, it's good, but my children's marriage makes my hair turn gray because of worry."
The eldest lady smiled politely. When she was young, she had a pretty good relationship with Mrs. Anqinghou. However, after the death of Duke Zhenguo, she stopped socializing much and lost contact with Mrs. Anqinghou.
The eldest lady said: "Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
Mrs. Anqing said: "You are blessed. The Gu family's boy has been granted a marriage by the Holy Spirit. If you let me, I will wake up laughing even in my dreams."
The eldest lady said: "Why do you envy me? Your sons and daughters are all married and established."
The Marquis of Anqing said: "Well, my son has been found, but my daughter is still doing embroidery in her boudoir."
The eldest lady smiled and did not answer the question. She just took an orange from the table, peeled it open and put it in Ji Miaoxian's hand.
Ji Miaoxian took it with a smile and said, "Thank you, aunt."
Upon hearing this title, Marquis Anqing tried to figure out Ji Miaoxian's identity and said, "Your niece is really good-looking. She looks a bit like you back then."
The eldest lady at that time was the envy of all the girls in Kyoto. She was beautiful and well-born.
The Duke of Zhenguo whom he married was very heroic and powerful, and his marriage to the eldest lady became a legend.
But who would have thought that just a few years after these happy days, Duke Zhen Guo died in battle, and when his body was brought back, he brought a pregnant aunt with him, which is really sad.
Fortunately, my aunt gave birth to a boy and a girl, and someone has inherited the title of the Duke of Zhenguo, so the life of the eldest lady will not be too miserable.
The doctor said: "She is much more dexterous than I was back then."
Mrs. Anqinghou said in a low voice: "Such a good girl, I'm afraid the threshold for asking for marriage will be crossed."
Mrs. Anqinghou was testing the waters. It was true that she was attracted to Gu Yu, but Gu Yu's unmarried side wife really made people hesitate. After all, the marriage was granted by the Holy Father. When her own daughter entered the house, she would inevitably make Miss Sun a few
Save face.
What's more, I heard that Prince Gu had two concubines in his house, which were very unpleasant.
Now that the eldest lady has brought over a cousin who is as beautiful as a fairy, she feels even more that this marriage cannot happen.
Mrs. Anqinghou is a smart person, and she feels a little disappointed, but she is not sad at all.
The eldest lady said to Ji Miaoxian: "I will chat with the ladies, and you go somewhere else to play with the little sisters."
Ji Miaoxian knew someone somewhere in Kyoto, but when it came to marriage, it was not appropriate for a young girl like her to be present.
Ji Miaoxian responded and followed the maid down.
Seeing Ji Miaoxian walking away, the eldest lady said in a loud voice: "This child is very fond of me, I plan to keep her by my side."
There is no need to put it too bluntly, everyone knows that the eldest lady plans to let Ji Miaoxian marry Gu Yu and become his wife.
