The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 887
After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he looked at the dumb mother-in-law standing aside.But the dumb mother-in-law nodded to Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu knew that his mother knew.

When Mrs. Lu heard this, the bright smile just now gradually disappeared.

"Mother knows, how could Mother not know?" Lu Shi put down the tea bowl handed to Gu Chengyu, and murmured.

"Is that mother still dating her? The eldest princess probably doesn't want to see us have a close relationship with her daughter, let alone other things."

Gu Chengyu sighed, feeling that too many accidents happened today.

When has his marriage been put on the agenda?He is still young next year!
"The princess's temperament is different from her mother's. She has a good temper! Although she is distinguished, my son is not bad. She is already a sixth-rank official at the age of 14. Who in the world has my son's ability? She is What's the matter with the princess? Isn't it because of his background?"

Lu's face sank completely, and when she thought of others looking down on her son's background, her heart ached like a knife.

"You! You will cause trouble for Xiaobao. I told you a long time ago that it is better not to have a good relationship with the princess. You have been taught her mother's temperament, and you know it best. You still rely on your background. , people rely on their background, what can you do?"

Father Gu, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but interjected. He looked down on Lu's hot attitude towards shaving his head.

Xiaobao looks good and is an official, so why worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law?
But the old woman just fell in love with that princess, but with his identity, can he look up to the Gu family whose muddy legs have not been cleaned?
"Her mother is her mother, she is her! As long as Xiao Bao likes that girl, Xiao Bao must find a way to marry her."

The Lu family felt that Gu Chengyu was looked down upon because of his low background, so he wanted Gu Chengyu to marry a daughter of a wealthy family, so that he could help his son in the officialdom in the future.

Originally, she didn't understand these things, but she has heard a lot of such things recently, and she still thinks that marrying a good wife is much better than her son struggling alone.

As for the eldest princess, what does it matter if she suffers some grievances?
Gu Chengyu was a little bit dumbfounded, his mother always had an obsessive confidence in him.

"Mother! This marriage has always been decided by the elders. How can the princess decide her own marriage? The eldest princess will never agree. Besides, the princess certainly doesn't have the same idea. Don't talk nonsense in front of others."

Gu Chengyu rubbed his forehead, sometimes his mother is so innocent and cute.

"Look, Xiaobao is more sensible than you. You said it yourself, he has a noble status, so don't try to climb high, I think it's enough to tell Xiaobao that he's the right one."

Old man Gu put down the cigarette stick in his hand, he was firmly opposed to this matter.

Where is the girl from a rich family easy to marry?You don't have to be pointed at the spine by people and scold them for fawning on the pole.

"What do you mean right? Xiaobao is so capable, what kind of girl can't marry? Although she is a princess, but when she gets married, she still bears the surname of her husband's family. Can she still marry another royal relative? "

Mrs. Lu felt even more uncomfortable after being choked up by Papa Gu.

Others look down on your son's origin, and you, a father, also look down on it.I don't even think about whether my son is dragged down by parents like them?

Otherwise, with his son's looks and talents, every girl in the capital would be a high-ranking little treasure, and the threshold of the house would be broken by a matchmaker!
Seeing that Mrs. Lu was getting angry, Gu Lao had no choice but to calm down.

"I'm just saying, you know who the princess is, so it's definitely not going to work." Old Gu murmured.

"Yes! Mother, let's not say that the eldest princess can't agree. Think about it! If my son comes back after marrying the princess, will he have a good life in the future? She has a noble status, we can't even say harsh words, your son How aggrieved and tiring it is to have to offer her as a Bodhisattva!"

Gu Chengyu stood up, rubbed Lu's shoulders, and explained softly.

Originally, Lu wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking about it, what Xiaobao said made sense.

Originally, Xiaobao was reluctant to marry a daughter-in-law.And this married daughter-in-law can't even say harsh words, what if Xiaobao is bullied by his daughter-in-law in the future?
This is not possible, Lu wavered again.

"Old lady, chicken noodle soup is ready."

Caiyun came in with a tray, and Gu Chengyu smelled the aroma of chicken noodle soup, and his mouth began to drool immediately.

Forget it, the emperor eats big.Don't think about these troubles first, let's talk about it after filling our stomachs.

"Master! What did Jinyu say?" Ning waited for Gu Chengyu to leave, and seeing Liang Zhirui was silent, she couldn't help asking.

She didn't seem very happy to see Gu Chengyu before she left, and she felt a little uneasy. Could it be that she disagreed?

Liang Zhirui opened his tightly closed eyes, and sighed softly: "He said that as long as sister Xian is willing, he can be regarded as a high climber."

When Ning heard this, her expression relaxed, and a smile could not help but hang on her face.

"Sister Xian has a good temper, and her looks are impeccable, so it's not an insult to him. Besides, Sister Xian was born in the Duke's Mansion, except for an incomprehensible stepmother, can the rest wrong him? But This kid Jinyu has a sweet mouth, a calm temper, and a lot of ability, the two of them are a match made in heaven."

Maybe it was half of the matter, Ning's heart relaxed, and she talked more.

"Did you wrong him?" Liang Zhirui sat up suddenly from the bed, looking at Ning's eyes full of sarcasm.

Ning Shi was taken aback by Liang Zhirui's actions, she patted her chest, "What are you doing?"

"Ask yourself, has this marriage wronged Jinyu? According to the emperor's respect for him, after two years, Jinyu will definitely not be at the same level as he is now. If he gets married later, he may already be in a high position. At that time, apart from the royal family, which family would not want to be married to him?"

Liang Zhirui's words stabbed Ning's heart like a sharp knife, and the heavy breathing of the two echoed in the room.

"Don't be too partial. Look, who can get promoted so quickly? Which minister in the court didn't get his qualifications? You have such high expectations for him. Besides, if sister Xian didn't have such a stepmother , how could it be his turn?"

Ning Shi also became angry, and tears rolled down her cheeks.Thinking of my eldest daughter who died young, I feel that my granddaughter is not worth it.

"How stupid your idea is! Do you know that the emperor has already accepted his promotion when he went to Hejian Mansion this time? Do you think it is so difficult to be promoted based on his ability?"

Liang Zhirui rubbed his forehead and leaned against the pillow.

Ning was silent, but how could she not know Gu Chengyu's abilities?Otherwise, she would not be willing to betroth Sister Xian to him.

It's just that she doesn't want to admit it!

"I have been aboveboard all my life. I consider myself an upright gentleman, and I do things with no shame in my heart. Who wants to be old, and even repays favors. We say we don't force him, but what's the difference between us and persecuting him? I know that in the past His temperament, as long as I open my mouth, he will definitely agree in the end."
