Chapter 170 Everyone gathers and starts eating melons
When Lu Xinran got up in the morning to pay his respects, he subconsciously glanced at Pei's booklet.
After seeing her thoughtfulness, I almost spat out the snack crumbs in my mouth.
Grandma, don’t match people up randomly!
Cui Shenglin is trying so hard to please her and Lu Xinlan, which is obviously a roundabout way to save the country.
He didn't dare to go directly to the Duke's Mansion, and didn't dare to let Zhang Shuier discover his little tricks, so he could only use this method to try to get them to help.
Pei listened to her mumblings and had no idea that the hidden truth behind them was like this.
"What is the character of this young man from the Cui family? I heard that he does not work and hangs around the streets all day long. Is this true?"
"Yes! He is very proud of being a well-known playboy."
Lu Xinran answered quickly, fearing that if he spoke a word too late, Pei's inappropriate thoughts would deepen.
Her anxious look made Pei want to laugh.
Regardless of whether the character of this young man from the Cui family can be considered a good match, even if he is good in every way, it still depends on whether his horoscopes are compatible with those of my granddaughter and whether they are destined to be together.
She is not senile yet, so how could she consider the other party as a candidate for her grandson-in-law just because of such a small matter?
[However, Cui Shenglin is indeed a good person. Although he seems to be idle and is a negative example of how the younger generations are educated in various places, he is clear-headed and open-minded, and is favored at home. If he can really be matched with Zhang Er, it would be a good match.]
[I just don't know what happened to her cousin. How is his current situation after he came back to the family? Has he brought the two families closer together?]
Hearing her talk about Qiu Zixuan, the An family, and the Gu family, Pei knew that her two little granddaughters did not want to mention the younger generation of the Cui family anymore, so she started talking with a smile.
"It's a coincidence that I just heard some news yesterday."
As soon as she started talking, several people in the room immediately looked at her.
Especially Lu Xinran, after she found out that the big melon she heard about could not only calculate life points, but also calculate more than what the system read, she became more enthusiastic about eating melons.
She blinked her big eyes, and her expectant look made Pei almost unable to hold back her laughter.
"Do you still remember the younger generation of the Qiu family who was adopted by the Gu family?"
Lu Xinran and several others nodded immediately. It had only been less than a month since this happened, who would not remember it!
Pei was laughing when she suddenly sighed, "Qiu Zixuan, no, now we should call him Gu Zixuan. That child got engaged these days."
"Engaged?"
Lu Xinran was shocked. She looked at Lu Xinlan blankly.
Before, when they were at the Duke's Mansion, they all saw that Qiu Zixuan's eyes were full of affection when he looked at Zhang Shuier.
But... they haven't heard that Zhang Er is engaged!
"The Gu family finally arranged for him to marry An's niece. It is said that the wedding date is set soon and will take place before the New Year."
"So urgent?"
Lu Xinran was flipping through the useless system. She just wanted to eat melons and wanted all the information about that man!
The system that she despised hummed and didn't give any response.
"The old lady of the Gu family is not in good health. Maybe she wants to see her newly adopted grandson get married before she dies."
She spoke tactfully, but everyone in the room could hear the hidden meaning behind her words.
The Gu family is planning to use Qiu Zixuan's marriage to bring good luck to the old lady.
Lu Xinran was at a loss. She clearly remembered what she had seen before, that everyone in the Gu family felt sorry for him and wanted to show him their hearts to let him know that they were really looking forward to his return.
How come this person is getting married in just one month, and is using marriage as a way to bring good luck?
She was still a little confused, but Lu Xinlan suddenly asked, "Grandma, did you find out which girl the Gu family introduced to him?"
Her words instantly made several people look at Pei curiously again, and Pei smiled approvingly and said.
"She is An's niece."
Is it her?
Lu Xinran was shocked, and his desire to eat melons was unprecedentedly strong.
She is actually a girl from the An family, and the wedding date is set so hastily. Maybe your girl has some hidden story.
"Grandma, should we go visit the Gu family? Or find someone who knows the situation and ask them about it."
It's so uncomfortable to be stuck like this.
Pei rolled her eyes at her with amusement. Doesn't this girl really know that everyone is afraid of her abilities?
"No rush, the wedding is in half a month, we have to go to the wedding anyway."
"Yes, let's go to Gu's house and take a look!"
When everyone is present, you have to eat the whole melon!
It took only half a month from the engagement to the wedding, and everyone in the capital who received the news was curious about the hidden story.
Even Zhang Shuier wrote a letter to the two of them. The words in the letter were very excited, and it was obvious that she was also waiting for the big news to appear.
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, before dawn, the Gu and An families became bustling.
Mrs. An looked at her niece in the mirror, who was dressed extremely luxuriously, and smiled with tears in her eyes.
"I finally see you and Zixian get married, and I can finally put my mind at ease."
An Qingyu looked at her red eyes in the mirror, put her hands on her belly and smiled gently.
"Don't worry, aunt. I will definitely take good care of my cousin, give birth to children for him, and stay with him forever."
They will definitely be the perfect couple that everyone in this capital city envies.
An nodded twice, and couldn't help but look forward to the scene.
"I feel relieved when you are by Zixuan's side."
Even if her son returns to the Gu family, he is still the child she raised, and she has the final say on his marriage.
An Qingyu also lowered her head, pursed her lips and chuckled, her palm casually touching her lower abdomen again.
After today, my cousin will have to be with her for the rest of his life.
She didn't care which girl the Gu family had liked before, or who her cousin had in his heart, from now on that person could only be her.
"Madam, the wedding procession is here, and the son-in-law is riding a tall horse, so impressive."
The old woman's words made the whole yard busy.
Gu Zixuan looked at his friend who came forward to knock on the door, the smile on the corner of his lips not reaching his eyes.
"A poem to urge you to get dressed. Send it to me quickly, Zixian. Today is your wedding day. You should write a poem to urge you to get dressed."
"Yes."
When his friend turned around, his face was already filled with a smug expression.
He dismounted, took out a poem he had written long ago to urge the bride to get ready, and had it delivered inside.
Only a quarter of an hour after the poem urging the bride to get dressed was delivered, the gate of the courtyard was opened.
He cupped his hands and smiled faintly at his future brothers-in-law. All the An brothers smiled apologetically and didn't even dare to ask for the extra red envelopes.
At the Gu family's side, Lu Xinran had already followed Pei to the front yard, and the whole family was hiding quietly in a corner.
After Zhang Shuier and Qiu arrived, they found them through the servants of the Gu family.
Because of her daughter, Qiu became much closer to Pei.
At this time, the two families gathered together, chatting and laughing, while waiting for the wedding procession to return, and then they started eating melons when everyone was present.
"I heard that the An family had invited a royal physician to the mansion, and a few days after the physician left, Gu Zixian and An Qingyu got engaged."
Zhang Shuier excitedly shared the information she had obtained.
Her face was filled with excitement, and Lu Xinran couldn't help but cough lightly and asked secretly.
"He finally chose the cousin from the An family. Don't you feel regretful?"
Zhang Shuier looked at her strangely: "Why should I feel regretful?"
Although Gu Zixuan was considered her cousin in the past, she was not really familiar with him because of An's cautious vigilance.
She didn't know how Lu Xinran could tell that Gu Zixuan was somewhat fond of him.
That melon-eating system...it's definitely not reliable in this regard!
