Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family

Chapter 185 Gu An is getting married

"My dear wife, Yuqing and I have seen several outstanding ladies and gentlemen at Mr. Tan's house. I think if possible, we can send a matchmaker to talk to them. Maybe he can find a good marriage for our child."

Gu Yao smiled and said, "Sure. How are you two having fun? No one should bother you. If anyone is rude, just confront them. Although I am not talented, I am also a fifth-rank official. I can always make sure you live comfortably in the capital."

Lin Wulang smiled softly and said, "Nothing. No one is causing trouble for us. After all, the guests invited by Mr. Tan are all very well-educated, and Ayou is here too."

Gu Yao knew that he was talking about Zheng Shuyi's doctor. Gu Yun and Gu Ying did not attend the banquet because their children were sick.

Fortunately, Zheng Shuyi's doctor was there, so Lin Wulang and the others were quite comfortable.

"Anyway, we must live comfortably in the capital, otherwise why would I be an official?"

Thinking of what Lin Wulang said about seeing each other, he smiled and said, "If you think it's appropriate, send someone to the house, but you also have to ask the children. If they are willing, it's fine. If not, don't force it too much."

"Don't worry, if we force it, what kind of family will our Gu family become? We must make sure both of them are satisfied."

As for the marriage of Gu family's children, Gu Yao only makes the final decision. Everything else depends on the opinions of Lin Wulang and others.

After all, women are the breadwinners outside the home and men are the homemakers, so unless it's too much, Lin Wulang won't refute it too much.

He is also the head husband of the family. If he always refutes Lin Wulang's words, he will not be able to gain a foothold in the Gu family.

In late June, an imperial decree was received from the palace to grant marriage to Duke Qi's eldest granddaughter, Qi Yan, who was to marry a 20-year-old imperial minister.

This also means that the Duke of Qi's Mansion will continue to enjoy prosperity and wealth for decades unless they rebel.

Although the twenty imperial ministers were not favored, they still had royal blood and were the emperor's youngest sons.

The emperor is already old, and it won’t be long before an accident happens, which may take her life.

However, her imperial power cannot be shaken by anyone, even though the princess is now in her thirties.

Gu Yao felt quite sympathetic towards the princess. After all, she had been a princess for so many years, but still hadn't become the top leader. The thought of doing so made her feel aggrieved.

However, she felt that if this princess could persevere and not follow the example of the princes in history, then she would be able to obtain the throne in the end.

This princess is very capable and is the legitimate heir. Moreover, I am also supported by the ministers in the court. So unless the queen is confused, she should be able to inherit the throne safely in the end.

As a fifth-rank official, Gu Yao had to attend court, after all, he had crossed the threshold of the fifth rank.

But she was the last one to enter the palace, so to speak, and could only stay outside the palace.

She felt very cold when she thought about having to stay outside the temple in the middle of winter, and thought about asking Lin Wulang to make her some more hand-warming things after she returned.

It would be great if she could bring a hot water bottle secretly, otherwise she would definitely not be able to stand the cold wind.

Listening to the empress's old voice, she thought that she should hurry up and let her children get married as soon as possible. If the country was in mourning all of a sudden, wouldn't they have to wait for several more years?

Finally, the court session was over. I hurried back home and told Lin Wulang about the incident.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wulang said seriously: "It seems that we really need to speed up the process. Let's write a letter immediately and make it clear to the Bai family so that An An and Shu Shu can get married as soon as possible."

However, they were also willing to bring their second son-in-law over as soon as possible, after all, they had been engaged for several years.

If I don't marry her sooner, not only will her age increase, but there's even a possibility that we will really face national mourning.

Then Gu Yao called Gu An over and said, "Your eldest father and I have already discussed it and asked you to get married with Shushu as soon as possible. After all, the capital is not too peaceful now, and it is also for your own good. If you marry him sooner, I can also hold my granddaughter sooner."

Gu An was a little shy: "Mom, haven't you already had a granddaughter? Look at Achen and Ale, don't they? Although Ale was born not long ago, she is also your granddaughter."

Gu Le is Gu Ping’s second daughter. It can be said that Wang Qillang is envied by many people in the Gu family.

He had two daughters, which made Chen's people jealous.

But Chen kept saying that she loved him a lot, so why couldn't she get pregnant? Wang Qilang had already had two children, but she didn't even have a boy.

Wang Qillang was naturally proud, but he could control his pride. He had always been a dignified doctor and would never be jealous.

He also personally gave Gu Ping two young servants, both of whom were men from decent families.

Wang Qillang's servants originally wanted to let him choose the slaves in the family, but he also knew that his mother-in-law's maids were all from decent families outside.

If he married a slave-born child to Gu Ping, his father-in-law would probably be unhappy with him.

He interrupted Lu Mei and said directly: "As a doctor, I must be able to establish myself. Moreover, I already have two daughters, so I don't care about other people having children. Look at my father-in-law, isn't he? He never cares how many men or children his mother-in-law has."

In fact, Wang Qillang thought that if he used tricks to kill Gu Ping's child, his grandmother and others at home would probably not be happy about it.

And he would always remember what his father taught him: it would be impossible to control the men in the backyard to have children, unless you could control the women, but women were never controlled by them.

And you must also have confidence that your methods will not be discovered by others. If you don’t have confidence, then don’t do it.

Wang Qillang felt that he was lucky as he had two daughters in advance, and he was loved by his family, so he would not do those things.

Although An was shy, she knew that it was time for her to get married. Moreover, if the current emperor really couldn't live that long, she would definitely get married earlier, which would be better for her.

"Mom, I will listen to you. You can make the arrangements when the time comes."

Gu Yao sighed: "You are about to get married, you must remember to respect your husband and take care of your family. I believe you can do it. You are about to take the military examination, I hope you can pass it, but I believe you can do it."

Originally, it was estimated that An should have gone earlier, but her family always felt that she was still too young, so they decided to let her study more first and then take the martial arts examination next year.

I guess An would naturally follow her family's arrangements. What's more, she also wanted to start a family, pass the military examination, and become an official, which would be considered a good idea.

The Bai family was naturally willing after receiving Gu Yao's letter. They had already prepared Bai Shushu's dowry in advance and were just waiting for the Gu Yao family to come and get married.

Lin Wulang had already made arrangements and the betrothal gifts were delivered to the Bai family first.
