Chapter 784
784 Getting a wife
Uncle Gu did not disturb old master Zhou and grandma Xiao, but old master Zhou did not get a good look from grandma Xiao either.
Lu Zheng advised old master Zhou to take it slow. It was a big improvement for him to be able to step into the three-way junction. Just come over often to play in the future.
Lu Zheng was starting to take over many of the Zhou family’s businesses. His sister, Lu Xue, had also sent many capable people over in the name of helping his grandparents. In fact, Lu Zheng had asked Lu Xue to find them. They were all people Lu Zheng had used to use in his previous life.
in the previous life, lu zheng had also inherited all of old master zhou’s family business. he had nurtured them one by one and they were extremely loyal to him. all he had to do was sit down and collect money.
Old master Zhou had told the public that Lu Zheng was a junior in the family, but in reality, he did not have any family clan. If someone were to investigate, they would know that Zhou Yuan had not found such a person, and that old master Zhou had no family relations.
All of his properties belonged to Lu Zheng and Lu Xue, and he was happy to hand them over.
His greatest wish for the rest of his life was not to earn more money, but to get his wife back and beg for her forgiveness.
Therefore, old Zhou had a lot of time to come over and play.
……
After Gu Ren’s birthday, the Gu family made use of the last few days of the month to prepare everything that was needed for the wedding.
During this period, Gu Xin exchanged letters with Xie Zhiyi a few more times. Madam Xie’s shop in Yuzhou Prefecture had already opened. Xie Zhiyi said that she would be coming over with Madam Xie next month to have a good business talk.
Gu Xin had a good impression of Xie Zhiyi, so she didn’t mind if they talked about business. However, she had to give Xie Zhiyi a reason in her reply letter after fourth uncle got married.
Unexpectedly, on the day of fourth uncle Gu and yang xiaohuan’s wedding, Mrs. Xie brought Xie Zhiyi to their house as guests. Of course, they had also prepared wedding gifts.
It was the 5th of November, fourth uncle Gu’s 20th birthday, and also the day of his wedding.
Yang xiaohuan was one year older than fourth uncle Gu, and he was already twenty-one years old.
Her wedding dress had been designed by Cai Xiaolian, and it looked very good after the embroidery.
although they were living in the village, the two families were not short of money, so the standard of the wedding banquet was quite big.
A total of 30 tables were set up. Gu Nian was in charge of cooking while the village’s aunties came to do the chores.
After this incident, no one doubted Gu Nian’s skills anymore. Everyone began to praise Gu Nian, saying that she had hidden her skills well and that it had been a waste for her to embroider in the past.
There were more than 40 families in the village, more than 200 people in total. Other than the Zhang family, who had a bad relationship with the Gu family, everyone else was here.
the gu family didn’t expect that their little xinxin could make friends with the prefect’s wife. gu shouxin and cai xiaolian had a good impression of madam xie. just based on the fact that she had thrown her ill-bred son into the military camp and sent four big bundles of rope on the way, she had earned a good impression from the two.
since mrs. li had no one to chat with, she could sit with mrs. xie.
The couple had learned from Lu Zheng that the Yuzhou prefect, Lord Xie, was the nephew of the wife of Duke Rong. Madam li and Madam Xie could be considered relatives, but the couple did not mention this.
As for Xie Zhiyi, he was a little arrogant, but he was also a little silly. Huo Yanyu played with him as if she was playing with Gu Ren. Xie Zhiyi quickly integrated into the group of children.
In the evening, fourth uncle Gu put on the groom’s clothes and drove the ox-cart to the Yang family to pick up the bride.
In the great Zhou Dynasty, the wedding was held in the evening. After the ceremony, the guests were invited to eat and drink before they were sent to the bridal chamber.
