Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 8 But I Don't Want to Marry Anymore

There are many dignitaries in Jiangcheng, and the only ones who can be called the richest among the dignitaries are the Huo family.

Now the whole country is divided by warlords. Although Marshal Huo was born recklessly, he has a very flexible mind. When he was young, others were still waiting to see him. He had already gathered a group of brothers to take down the most affluent southern "Jiangshan" , It is also because the Marshal's Mansion is in Jiangcheng, the area of ​​Jiangcheng has nearly doubled in size in just a few years, and many wealthy businessmen have flocked here.

Local wealthy households like the Gu family and the Meng family seemed a bit shabby.

Jiang Shumei felt sorry for Gu Yuting, and tried every means to make Gu Yuting marry into the Huo family and become a real noble lady.

The eldest young master of the Huo family has already married his wife, the second young master is a "flower butterfly", and the fourth young master has not returned to China, who knows if he already has a marriage partner?The only one who has a good relationship with the eldest young master and has a position in the army is the third young master.

If Gu Yuting can marry the third young master Huo, she will be able to follow the glory.

——This has always been Jiang Shumei's thoughts in her heart, but she said it out of desperation.

Even Gu Yuting was a little confused.

What is the third young master of the Huo family?Since when did she like the third young master of the Huo family?
"Mother, when did I say that I like the third young master of the Huo family?" Gu Yuting glanced at Gu Wan, raised her head high and said, "Since my sister has proposed to give up Shuheng to me, I don't want to give up Shuheng." You're welcome."

"Father, mother, the person I like is brother Shuheng. I have had a good relationship with brother Shuheng since I was a child. I am brother Shuheng's childhood sweetheart. The person that brother Shuheng likes is also me. He doesn't like Gu Wan at all. Yes, he also said that Gu Wan was only in a feudal society..."

"Bang!", Gu Haishan suddenly stood up and slapped Gu Yuting hard on the face.

He was furious: "You wicked girl, how dare you miss your own brother-in-law?"

Because of some old things that cannot be revealed, Gu Haishan’s most taboo is to mess up the rules of human relations. The Meng family and the Gu family are family friends. To housekeeper.

Although his eldest daughter has a softer temper, she is capable, and these years, the Gu family has always kept the fact that Gu Wan grew up in the countryside well, and no one else knew that Gu Yuting was adopted later. It was because the Gu family had two daughters.

But back then, living in the countryside was indeed beyond the control of Gu Wan as a child... Thinking about it this way, Gu Haishan finally felt a little guilty towards Gu Wan in his heart.

But at this moment, Gu Yuting yelled at him in disbelief: "Father, you... you hit me?"

"Have you forgotten? I am your favorite daughter. You have been reluctant to beat me since you were a child, but now you beat me because of Gu Wan?"

"What's so good about her is that she looks gentle and harmless, but she is actually full of vicious schemes. Otherwise, how could she let herself get involved in the Meng family's marriage? How could she force brother Shuheng to marry her?"

"But why should she be the eldest wife of the Meng family? Brother Shuheng doesn't like her, brother Shuheng likes me..."

"Shut up!" Gu Haishan's body began to tremble angrily: "You remember clearly today, Meng Shuheng is your brother-in-law, it can only be your brother-in-law, if you dare to think about it, you are not my Gu Haishan." Haishan's daughter!"

Tears stuck in Gu Yuting's eyes, and Jiang Shumei was also frightened.

None of them thought that this matter would be so serious!

Jiang Shumei soon understood, probably because of that incident...

She hurriedly got up, stood in front of Gu Yuting, and said to Gu Haishan: "Master, the sisters are just playing around, look at you, you are serious.

Yu Ting is still young, so she doesn't know what liking is, probably because she saw the tall and handsome Meng Shuheng when she was visiting the Lantern Festival yesterday, so she felt a little bit of admiration, so she won't really compete with Gu Wan for husband. "

As she said that, she still pulled Gu Yuting: "Yuting, tell your father quickly that the third young master of the Huo family you like is not your future brother-in-law."

Gu Wan lowered her eyelids, hiding the sarcasm inside.

Jiang Shumei said that Gu Yuting's liking for Meng Shuheng is not liking, but liking for the third young master of the Huo family is just liking?

Before Gu Yuting could speak, Gu Wan raised her voice and asked, "Sister Yuting, you just said that the person Meng Shuheng likes is you, but is it true? Did he tell you himself? You won't be lying to me, lying to me. Father and mother, right?"

"Of course it's true!" Gu Yuting subconsciously said, "Didn't you all..." Did you hear that?
Halfway through the speech, she realized that she had fallen into the hole Gu Wan dug, and suddenly glared at Gu Wan: "You... did it on purpose!"

Gu Wan ignored him, and only said sadly to Gu Haishan: "Father, I really don't want to get married, no matter whether sister Yu Ting likes Meng Shuheng or not, since Meng Shuheng has no intentions for me, I've waited for him for so many years What? Why should I marry and bring shame on myself?
I'm not married anymore, and I invited my father to Meng's house to cancel my marriage with Meng Shuheng. I didn't see him last night, so it's as if this engagement never happened! "

As he said that, to express his determination, Gu Wan even said: "Father and mother don't have to worry about my marriage in the future. I have already made up my mind to go to the Qingshan Temple outside the city to lead a practice. Those who want to come to Jiangcheng People can't see me, and they won't mention me often, so as to embarrass the faces of parents!"

After Gu Wan finished speaking, she knocked her head firmly on the bluestone board three times, and the white gauze began to ooze blood again.

"It's just that in the future, a daughter will no longer be able to be filial in front of her father and mother, but it's enough for her father and mother to have Sister Yuting by their side. It doesn't matter if I'm missing."

"Miss, why are you bothering?" The old shopkeeper said, "You are still a child, how could you wrong yourself like this..."

Gu Haishan also hurried over, helped Gu Wan up with his own hands, opened his mouth, and said stiffly: "You child, why are you so stubborn, what happened last night... I misunderstood you, don't worry , the Meng family's marriage is yours, no one can take it away!"

"But sister Yuting said that Young Master Meng..." Gu Wan was talking about Gu Yuting, but she looked at Jiang Shumei, deliberately showing some fear and worry.

"Your mother is just concerned about your previous exile in the countryside, so don't blame her. You have your father to make decisions about this marriage," Gu Haishan said, "I'll ask the Meng family, it's them They keep saying that they want you to be their eldest daughter-in-law, and they are about to get married, so how could there be rumors that Meng Shuheng doesn't like you!"

Gu Haishan turned around, as if he really planned to go to Meng's house to settle accounts.

"No! Father, don't go!" Gu Wan hurriedly stopped Gu Haishan: "Father, this matter is just what sister Yuting said, and there is no evidence. If you just go to Meng's house to ask, if it is not true , wouldn’t it damage the relationship between the two families.”

"Gu Wan, do you mean that I'm lying? You obviously..." Gu Yuting pointed at Gu Wan angrily and wanted to scold her, but Jiang Shumei covered her mouth.

"Then... what do you want father to do for you?" Gu Haishan felt that Gu Wan was very sensible at this moment.

He didn't even think about going to the Meng family to settle the score. The businesses of the Meng family and the Gu family are all linked together, and this relationship cannot be broken.

But Gu Wan was so considerate of the relationship between the Gu Meng family, which made him very satisfied.

When Gu Wan heard this, she knew that the time had finally come for her to make a request.

"Father," she said weakly, "I thought about it carefully. Today is Marshal Huo's birthday banquet. Both the Gu family and the Meng family have received invitations. Meng Shuheng will definitely go to the banquet. If father doesn't think his daughter is ashamed , my daughter also wants to go to this banquet with you, mother, and younger sister Yu Ting. At that time, my daughter will find a private opportunity to ask Meng Shuheng in person.

If he really doesn't like me at all, my father will come forward and ask me how to deal with the wedding that is so close to him... I don't know, what does my father think? "

"Do you want to attend the birthday banquet in Huo's mansion?" Jiang Shumei immediately became unwilling: "Can you go to such an occasion? They are all western-style banquets, you are a cheap country girl, do you know the rules?" ?”
