1268 Chapter 1268-I won’t let you down
Gu Nian asked Gu Xin and Gu si to go out and listen to what they were saying.
Gu Xin shook her head. sister, I’m already a grown lady. There’s no room for me to eavesdrop anymore!
Gu Xin grew very quickly. She was only 14 years old, but she was already taller than Cai Xiaolian. She was almost as tall as Gu Nian and Gu Hui.
She had tried to eavesdrop at the corner of the wall before, but she realized that squatting while her feet were numb was not as convenient as when she was young.
Gu Nian patted her on the back and said, ” “Who told you to eavesdrop? you can openly go into the house and listen. No one will chase you out.”
Gu Xin,”Yingluo.”
Then, she pulled Gu si and Huo Yanyu along and went to the central room.
Gu Nian was no longer in the mood to do anything as she felt a little nervous.
Getting married was a big deal. Although she had already fallen for Xue Qianyu, it was still her first time being in a wedding ceremony!
Sitting on the chair, she had already begun to let her thoughts run wild. She thought about her life after she got married.
Without waiting for her to think further, a maidservant came to call her to the front hall.
Gu Nian felt that there were disadvantages to not having many rules in the house. Under normal circumstances, she would not need to go out.
Now that she had been called, it would be inappropriate if she didn’t go out.
She looked at herself in the mirror and realized that her face was red and her heartbeat was abnormal. If she didn’t know what was going on, she would have suspected that she had a heart attack.
Gu Nian took a few deep breaths and tidied up her hair and clothes. After taking another deep breath, she walked toward the living room.
The front hall was very large, and the Xue clan’s betrothal gifts were already laid out.
Gu Nian saw Xue Qianyu at first glance. She had only seen him on the day he returned from Lin mountain. She had not seen him for the next few days. Now that they had met again, she realized that his expressions were more vivid than before.
At least, in her eyes, he was no longer expressionless. There was a smile on his face, and one could tell that he was in a good mood at first glance.
Gu Nian thought to herself,’I didn’t even agree to marry you, so you’re in a good mood too early!’
She had forgotten that she had promised Xue Qianyu in front of Gu Xin and the others on the day of the new year by the river!
As soon as Gu Nian appeared, Mrs. Xue greeted her as if she was her own daughter. Gu Nian even thought that she was not in her own house but a guest at the Xue family’s house.
In the Gu family, because of their relationship with uncle Gu, the Xue family and the Kang family really did not treat themselves as outsiders. They said what they felt in their hearts and did not treat you as an outsider at all.
Grandpa and Grandma Gu had no opinion about Xue Qianyu. They were quite in favor of the two getting married, so the two elders also greeted him warmly.
Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian called Gu Nian over to sit next to them. Cai Xiaolian helped Gu Nian brush her bangs.”My niannian is already a big girl!”
“Mother, I’m already a big girl!” Gu Nian was embarrassed.
Duke Cheng ‘en continued,”yes, yes, yes, the Nian girl is already a big girl!” It’s my son’s fault for not telling his family about this earlier. Nian girl, do you think my family’s boy is still good? Our family only needs a well-educated, generous, and virtuous daughter-in-law like you!”
Gu Nian,”Yingluo, hehehehe, Yingluo.”
She glared at Xue Qianyu.’You’re the one who’s getting married to me. Why aren’t you taking the initiative? what nonsense are you letting your father spout? how am I supposed to respond?’
Xue Qianyu smiled, got up, and walked into the hall. He first bowed to Grandpa and Grandma Gu, then to Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian. I’m Xue Qianyu. I implore Grandpa, grandma, second uncle, second aunt to marry niannian to me. I’ll dote on her, love her, dote on her, and respect her. I’ll never let her down in this life!
