2001 Pure and kind
After a while, the eunuchs from the palace came with boxes of gifts.
The Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress had given him jewelry and cloth, the Emperor had given him some strange and eccentric trinkets, and the concubines in the harem had also given him some.
After the eunuchs from the Imperial Palace arrived, the housekeepers from the manors of the princes and princesses also came personally with gifts.
Then, it was the Peng family and the Huo familys Duke Zhengguos mansion.
Xue Qianyu and Gu Nian came over personally. When they arrived, they happened to b.u.mp into Xie Zhiyi and Huo Yanyu, so they came in together.
Third aunt Gu, who was pregnant, also came.
Grandpa Zhou, grandma Xiao, and Lu Xue were also here.
Anyway, in the end, the gifts that Gu Xin would receive would fill up the entire room.
Everyone had lunch at the Gu familys house to celebrate Gu Xins birthday. However, Lu Zheng was nowhere to be seen.
Xinxin, brother ah Yuan didnt appear. Arent you angry at all? After dinner, the girls were looking at the flowers and trees in Gu Xins courtyard. Huo Yanyu asked with a smile.
Brother Yuanyuan and I usually celebrate our birthdays together at night. We spend the day with our family. Gu Xin was not angry at all.
Tsk, I really envy you guys! Huo Yanyu exclaimed.
Silly girl, when are you and fourth brother Peng getting married? Once youre married, fourth brother Peng will spend every birthday with you, no matter if you want to spend it in the day or at night! Gu Xin looked at Xie Zhiyi as she spoke, Yiyi, have you set a time for you and second brother Peng?
Xinxin, you dont care about us at all. Weve already set the wedding date and youre still asking. Xie Zhiyi pretended to be angry.
I only know its April, but I dont know what day it is. Ive heard that youre planning to get married on the same day. Gu Xin said.
The Peng family had such plans. When the time came for the first and second branches of the Peng family to get married, they planned to hold the wedding in the capital. Xie Zhiyis mother had planned to come to the capital with second general Peng and second Madam Peng after the new year.
11th of April. That day is the most suitable day for a wedding in the first half of the year. Huo Yanyu then asked Gu Xin, Xinxin, when do you plan to get married to brother ah Yuan? Your imperial decree of marriage is the same as ours!
Sigh, speaking of this, I dont know what to say. Gu Xin sighed and took a sip of water from the stone table. Uncle Lu wants to hold a wedding for us, but hes looking in the wrong direction. He went to ask the Emperor uncle, ask my father. But the marriage of our daughter is decided by grandma! Uncle Lu still had to come from grandma. Brother Yuanyuan and I arent in a hurry at all.
Eh? Not in a hurry? I dont know which little girl is worried that her brother Yuan Yuan will be bullied at home and wants to quickly go help someone! Gu Nian said in embarra.s.sment.
Sister, you dont understand this. Your brother-in-laws family is full of good people, so you dont have to worry at all. However, my brother Yuan Yuans house is a Dragons pool and a Tigers Den! Ive seen it. Other than the three people from the Lu familys third uncles family who are a little more innocent, the rest of them are like sieves. They cant even be counted clearly. My brother Yuan Yuan is such a kind and innocent person. Can he fight with those who are scheming? How can I not be worried?
Could someone like Lu Zheng be considered innocent and kind?
Im afraid youre just pure and kind.
Gu Xin took another sip of water and sighed, you dont know, but the daughter of the Lin family, Lu Yang, thinks shes very smart. Shes playing tricks on me!
