1379 He didn’t appear today

It was the seventh day of the seventh month, Gu Nian’s eighteenth birthday.

In the great Zhou Dynasty, most 18-year-old women were already married, but this did not exist in the Gu family.

Gu Hui was already twenty years old this year, but she was not married yet.

Early in the morning, Madam Xue and consort Kang had called the manservants and maids of the house to move a lot of things.

Gu Nian looked at the many boxes in the courtyard and asked, ” “Aunt Xue, aunt Majesty Kang, what are you two doing?”

Madam Xue stepped forward and pulled Gu Nian over. Like magic, she pulled out a hairpin and placed it in Gu Nian’s hair.”I’ll prepare a birthday banquet for you. We’ll celebrate for you in the day, and you girls can go out and play by yourself at night. Your father said that this year’s IAO Festival will also have the girls of kun province IAO. You guys must have not seen each other for a long time, right? let’s go out and play together!”

Consort Kang handed a box to Gu Nian. “My dear niece, this is a gift from aunty. I bought a stone from Jin nanguo and asked someone to make a pair of jade bracelets for you. Your skin is so good, the color must suit you very well.”

“Thank you, Auntie Xue, and Auntie Kang.” Gu Nian chuckled. Don’t be busy, go inside and rest for a while. Let the maidservants do it. ”

“Don’t be busy.” Madam Xue tugged at Gu Nian. You’re the boss today. Go, go, go. I’ll keep an eye on you here. It’s not convenient for your mother and the others to be pregnant. Auntie will do it! Otherwise, when Peng Xiaowu comes, we won’t be able to do anything!”

Gu Nian held her forehead and could only agree.

Peng Yizhu would definitely come to celebrate Gu Nian’s birthday. So, the two of them had come so early because they were afraid that they would have nothing to do if they were late!

Gu Nian did not go to rest. Instead, she watched as the two of them instructed the servant girls to set up the place.

The Gu family also came out one by one. They didn’t say anything about the two of them. Anyway, consort Kang was considered their own child. If they were to mess around, there would be someone to clean it up in the end.

This pair of good sisters really did get some flowers and sent someone to chunnan city to get them from Huo Junhao.

Kun city was only a day’s distance away from chunnan city, but the weather in the two places was different. There were fewer types of flowers in kun city than in chunnan city.

Madam Xue and consort Kang had focused on decorating the courtyards where the girls of the Gu family lived. The two of them were used to seeing good and beautiful things and had a certain level of appreciation. Needless to say, the decorations were quite good.

Gu Xin, Gu si, and Gu yingxue sat in the small courtyard, feeling as if they were in a flower garden.

Gu yingxue even told her mother to remember to do the same when she was of marriageable age.

Then, the three of them talked about her coming-of-age ceremony. Gu Xin would be 15 next year and the Gu family was going to hold a Grand coming-of-age banquet for her. She was looking forward to it and hoped that the entire family would be there, including her third aunt’s family.

Gu yingxue and Gu si were the same year, and they would only be fifteen the year after.

Huo Yanyu was younger than Gu Xin, so when she heard the discussion outside, she ran out and joined in the conversation.

The small courtyard was bustling with activity.

After a while, Gu Hui, Jing, and Princess arrived as well. Jing and Princess asked about Lu Zheng the moment they arrived.

Gu Xin was puzzled, ” “It’s almost noon, where did brother Yuanyuan go? He didn’t even appear today!”

“Second brother Xue hasn’t shown up either!”

Gu si: ” brother Meng isn’t here either. Oh, right. Yiyi isn’t here yet either.

Like Gu yingxue, Xie Zhiyi would go home to sleep at night and come to the Gu residence early in the morning. In the end, Xie Zhiyi had not appeared even when Gu yingxue had come.
