Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

On the [-]th day of July, a wedding party marched on Jing Street, bringing a lively atmosphere to the whole street.Amidst the sound of festive gongs and drums, the young groom was riding a tall horse, and was dressed in a bright red wedding suit. He looked very handsome and attracted many people to watch and stop.

As the team moved forward, they distributed wedding money to passers-by on the street, shouting: "Gu and Xu are married together, and we will be together forever! We welcome the relatives today, and we will have fun together!"

When everyone saw this, they rushed up and snatched up the money. Some people were amazed at the generosity of the owner: "Hey, which one is this? It's so generous? The money has been scattered for half a street, and it's still spreading." !"

The others answered, "You don't even know this? This is the Songjiang Gu family, the family of Gu Yuanhui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, and the groom is Gu Yunji, the candidate for this year's imperial examination!"

"He is Gu Yunji?" The man looked surprised, and quickly stretched his neck to find the figure of the groom. "I heard that Gu Yunji came from a family with great talents. I don't know who is the woman who married him? If it is not the prince and duke After that, I'm afraid I won't be able to match it!"

Another person said: "You don't have to worry about that! Although this Miss Xu family married to Gu Yunji was not born as a princely duke, she is also a noble girl. She was dignified and virtuous in Beijing when she was young. Her father Xu Chengyu not only served as a The chief minister of the cabinet is also Gu Yunji's personal teacher. Now that the apprentice has become a son-in-law, there is no more perfect thing in the world than this!"

When everyone heard the words, they were pleasantly surprised and praised:
"Oh, that's really a man and a woman, and the right family!"

"Congratulations, happy marriage for a hundred years! Give birth to a precious son early!"

……

It was rare for Gu Yunji to be this happy. Even though he was happy in the imperial examination, he was more pleased with the rewards for his hard work. Right now, he was filled with joy from the bottom of his heart.Because this not only means that his relationship with Xu Shuhua has finally come to fruition, but also means that he is about to enter a new stage of life - becoming a husband and having a happy family.

The so-called four joys in life are "bridal chamber festivities night, when the gold list is inscribed", Gu Yunji only entered the gold list a few months ago, and now he will usher in his own bridal chamber festive candles.Hearing the congratulations from passers-by on both sides of the street, Gu Yunji smiled all over his face, and kept bowing his hands to everyone in return.

The welcoming team went outside the gate of Xu's mansion, but they were blocked by Xu's family as expected.

A large group of relatives and children of the Xu family waited at the door, blocking the door tightly without leaving a crack, as if they were going to make things difficult for Gu Yunji.

Gu Yunji suddenly felt bad, so he quickly sent a red envelope to everyone, and said with a smile: "For the sake of my red envelope, please let me go, and let me go in quickly. "

But the Xu family refused to let it go: "Hey—the red envelope should be given, if you want us to just let you in, that would be too naive!"

Gu Yunji had no choice but to take a step back: "Then what are you going to do to let me in?"

Xu Shuhua's cousin stood up and said: "My cousin's husband is a Tanhua Lang of Xinke. Although he has been known for a long time, he rarely has the opportunity to see it. If you don't want to, let's take the theme of welcoming relatives today and write a seven-character verse. Let's take a test Cousin-in-law's literary talent!"

As soon as this remark came out, the Xu family immediately echoed:

"That's right! Since you have won the favor of my daughter from the Xu family with your talent, you must also win our approval with your talent. Only in this way can we rest assured that we will hand over Shuhua to you!"

"The bridegroom is Tanhualang. It's too simple for me to say that we can only write poems. At least there should be a time limit for a stick of incense. If the time has passed and the bridegroom hasn't finished it, or if we are not satisfied with it, we can't go in! "

……

Not only did they have to compose poems on the spot, but they also had to set a time limit, and even if they were not satisfied with the poems, Gu Yunji felt a headache just after listening to them.

Gu Yunji didn't want to waste time with them here, so he repeated his old trick and pretended to call behind the Xu family: "Ah, what is that!" As he spoke, he prepared to take advantage of the gap to rush in.

However, as soon as he rushed up, he was blocked by a wall of people.

"Hehe, you still want to lie to us!" The Xu family looked at him in surprise, "The groom officer is not honest! He wanted to let you go, but now - there is no way!"

Seeing that the tricks used by Gu Yunxiao to greet the bride at the beginning were ineffective, Gu Yunji had no choice but to retreat again.

However, he is really not good at poetry, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a suitable sentence. Seeing the Xu family's face getting more and more complacent, Gu Yunji suddenly had an idea, and said solemnly:

"Actually, I expected this to happen early in the morning. As early as the day I was hired, I wrote a poem and inscribed it on the door frame of the gate of Xu Mansion. If you don't believe me, you can look back."

The Xu family couldn't help being curious, they took a few steps back and looked up to find the words on the door frame: "Where is it?"

Gu Yunji took advantage of the situation and stepped forward, walked in the door calmly, and pointed at a random location: "It's right there, see?"

"Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"

They searched for a long time but couldn't find the so-called poem. They were about to turn around and ask Gu Yunji, but saw that he had slipped into Xu's mansion while everyone was unaware, and shouted angrily, "Gu Yunji! You lied to us again!"

He wanted to raise his feet to catch up, but was stopped by the members of the Gu family who were swarming up. He couldn't escape, so he had to give up in the end.

After passing the barrier, the rest of the journey was unimpeded. Gu Yunji strode into the main hall, and Xu Chengyu, who was facing up, said loudly and authentically: "My lord father-in-law, my son-in-law is here to pick up his bride!"

Xu Chengyu laughed heartily when he heard it, and joked: "I thought you couldn't change your words for a while, but I didn't expect you to scream happily!"

Gu Yunji smiled and offered him a cup of fragrant tea, and his mouth became sweeter: "My father-in-law, please drink my son-in-law's new tea."

After Xu Chengyu drank tea, seeing Gu Yunji's eager and excited look, he stopped procrastinating and directly ordered: "It's almost time, go and bring the lady here."

Not long after, Xu Shuhua was covered with a red hijab and a wedding gown, and entered the hall with Qiu Xiao's support.Although Xu Shuhua couldn't be seen, as soon as she appeared, Gu Yunji's gaze fell on her, and he could hardly move his eyes away.

After bidding farewell to Xu Chengyu, Xu Shuhua went out with Xu Shujing on his back and put him on the sedan chair.

After receiving the bride, Gu Yunji also got on his horse, ready to set off to return home.

At this moment, Xu Shujing suddenly stopped him: "Gu Yunji!"

And the moment Gu Yunji turned his head, Xu Shujing suddenly had nothing to say, sourness rushed into his heart, and he felt his throat was blocked: "You..."

Looking into Xu Shujing's eyes, Gu Yunji had already read his mind clearly, so he showed a reassuring smile to the other party, and said slowly but firmly: "Don't worry, I will treat Shuhua well and treat her forever. "

"If you break this promise, the sky will strike with lightning."

Seeing that Gu Yunji had already answered the question he hadn't asked, Xu Shujing smiled knowingly, nodded to him, and watched him lead the wedding party farther and farther.
