Song Shu put his big hand on the back of Song Shen’s head, “What’s the matter with you? Go away!”
Song Shen went to the side with a lot of aggression.
As he interrupted, all the sadness in everyone’s heart dispersed, and Grandma Song said, “Yue’er is right, no matter what, we can’t throw Young Master Gu out of our house. In that case, let’s listen to Yue’er, let’s agree to a betrothal and take one step at a time, since Yue’er is still young anyway and there are still many years before she marries.”
“But I’m still not happy about it.”
Song Lin covered his chest, he had sworn the other day that his daughter would not marry that brat, but now he was going to be betrothed.
Grandma Song didn’t know what he was thinking and glared at him, “I’m telling you, when the marriage is really fixed, Young Master Gu will be your son-in-law, you can’t bully him explicitly or implicitly.”
“Mother!”
Song Lin was dissatisfied, “How can you turn your elbow to the outside?”
“How can I turn my elbow? If you bully him, what if he bullies Yue’er in turn? I feel sorry for Yue’er, you stupid fool.”
“How dare he! If he dares to bully Yue’er, I don’t care if he’s the young master of the Gu family, I’ll hang him on the big tree at the door to remember.”
“You bully, you have the guts to go and get the man and hang him now.”
“I ……”
Song Wangyue covered her mouth and laughed, her eyebrows arched.
Xu looked at her eyes, the last trace of worry in her heart dispersed, gently stroking her head, “Although we promised to be betrothed, but not these few days, wait for your big brother’s happy news to come later.”
“I know, I’ll go to the Gu family later and send the 10,000 taels of silver to them, and by the way, give them the consent to the betrothal.”
“Let your big brother accompany you.”
Song Wangyue nodded her head.
She went to her house to take out Gu Yi’s silver cheque and the 10,000 taels of silver given by Grandma Song that day. Song Si had already re-set the ox cart and was waiting at the gate.
She was afraid that if Song Lin followed her and saw Gu Yi, he would not be able to hold back his anger and do something drastic.
As Song Si drove the ox cart out of the village, the people collecting crops in the fields along the road greeted him warmly, and Song Si responded to them one by one, only relaxing when he was far away from the Song family village.
He relaxed the reins and let the oxen walk unhurriedly.
“Yue’er, tell big brother honestly, did you agree to be betrothed to Gu Yi because of your family’s herbal tea business with the Gu family?”
He hadn’t mentioned it at home just now, for fear that the family would be burdened in their hearts if he did.
“Where are you thinking of? I agreed to be betrothed to Gu Yi because he is a good bully.”
Song Si obviously did not expect her to say this and froze, “Good bully?”
“Yes, you don’t know, when you were in the capital ……”
Song Wan Yue said the things she bullied Gu Yi about when she was in Fu Cheng with a smile, Song Si couldn’t help but smile after listening, “Young Master Gu is indeed simple-minded and treats you well. It is good for you to settle down early, and you should not be concerned about any disparity in portals, big brother will work hard to get the top exam, and by then our family will be even higher than theirs.”
Song Wan Yue smiled and nodded, “Big brother don’t worry, I am not the one who will suffer, it will only be Gu Yi who will suffer.”
Song Si laughed out loud.
……
Gu Yi naturally couldn’t really stay at the restaurant until the evening. After waiting for a little more than half an hour, he figured he wouldn’t be able to run into Song Wan Yue and the others on the road, so he asked Xiao Si to climb up to the roof to bring down the key and open the door to the room.
He came out of the house and couldn’t wait to get on the carriage to go home.
He was so excited all the way home that he called out to Xiao Si to get into the carriage and said all the things he wanted for the betrothal for him to remember, “A gold hairpin, a bracelet, a box of hairpins and flowers ……”
The first and second ladies didn’t have so many goodies when they were engaged to be married.
But he didn’t dare to say anything, the young master was excited, if he threw cold water at this time, he would be kicked a few times by the young master, he was not stupid, he wouldn’t do such a thing.
Gu Yi said all the way, Xiao Si remembered all the way, there are too many things, remember his dizzy, so much so that the carriage stopped in front of the house, he got down from the carriage, saw Song Wan Yue and Song Si drive over with the ox cart did not react, subconsciously opened the curtain.
“Xiao Si, I remembered another thing, have to give the little girl ……”
Gu Yi bent down and came out, the words did not finish, saw Xiao Si give him a desperate wink, also wondered, “What’s wrong with you, lost eyes?”
“Song, Miss Song.”
“Where?”
Gu Yi looked up haughtily and met Song Wan Yue’s smirking gaze. Sharply and without delay, he turned around and went back into the car in one fluid motion, “Oops, I was sleepwalking ……”
The crowd, ……
Song Wangyue held back her laughter as she got off the cattle car and walked over unhurriedly.
Xiao Si hurriedly retreated several steps back, secretly praying that the young master would take more care of himself.
Gu Yi opened one eye to look out and happened to see Song Wan Yue’s face, and hastily closed his eyes.
“Come down!”
Gu Yi opened his eyes for a second and giggled at her, “Little girl, I, I, I really sleepwalked, I didn’t ask Xiao Si to go to the roof and bring the key down, nor did I ask him to open the door to the house for me.”
Little Four, ……
took a few more steps back, lest the young master get beaten up himself by mistake later.
“I say again, come down!”
Gu Yi laughed heatedly as he came down and curtly bent low to bring his ear to her, “Little girl, you twist it.”
Song Wan Yue, ……
lifted her foot and stepped on the top of his foot fiercely.
Gu Yi gave a jolt of pain, and cold sweat sprang up on his forehead.
Xiao Si’s body shivered in fear and he hurriedly took a few more steps back.
Song Si saw what was really happening and shook her head with a smile, “Yue’er, it’s time for us to go in.”
Song Wan Yue’s skin smiled, “Young Master Gu, we are guests, you can take us in.”
Gu Yi was in so much pain that he couldn’t even speak, he could only nod his head.
“Then you can lead the way.”
Gu Yi slowly turned around and limped towards the courtyard with difficulty, while Song Wan Yue followed him unhurriedly.
Xiao Si hurried over and took the reins from Song Si’s hand, watching him go in with a big sigh of relief.
Song Wangyue had locked Gu Yi in the house, planning to come over and tell Master Gu and Madam Gu about the betrothal while he was not at home, but he did not expect Gu Yi to return, so he naturally did not show any mercy.
Gu Yi was still limping in pain when he reached the entrance to the main courtyard, but when he stepped through the door, he immediately acted as if nothing had happened, leading the two inside while raising his voice, “Father, mother, little girl and big brother are here.”
Master Gu and Madam Gu came out of the house at the sound of their voices and let the two of them into the flower hall, where they took their seats and ordered someone to serve tea.
Song Si said bluntly, “We came here today to talk about Yue’er and Young Master Gu’s marriage.”
