It is not far from Jinling to Lin'an. In the past few days, the waterway was smooth, and Mrs. Su's mother and daughter arrived soon.
On this day, Gu Huaijiang sent Qi An, the most respectable old butler, to accompany Gu Shubai and Gu Jiuge to Dutou in person.
The little official in charge of Dutou saw this battle, only to realize that the ordinary-looking merchant ship was actually the aunt of Guhou's mansion sitting in it.
He personally rushed ahead to greet Mrs. Su's mother and daughter to disembark, and ran back and forth to help arrange luggage.
Mrs. Su is three years older than Gu Huaijiang. Because she is a Japanese woman, she only wears a plain brown jacket and a stone-green twill on the outer hood, which looks dignified and appropriate.
In contrast, the delicate woman in the pink skirt next to her was tall and beautiful, with a lot of beads and green hairpins, and she was very gorgeously dressed.
"Big brother, second brother!"
Seeing the two of Gu Shubai, she happily raised her hand to say hello, without mentioning the word "biao" intimately in her address. Others thought she was a lady in the Guhou Mansion.
Madam Su looked at her two nephews, tall and handsome, long and phoenix, and couldn't hide the admiration in her eyes.
The two of Gu Shubai stepped forward to salute Mrs. Su, "Auntie, father sent us and the steward Qi to pick you up, as well as my cousin."
Madam Su looked behind them, Qi An crouched forward and saluted her respectfully.
"Housekeeper Qi, don't be polite. You are an old man in our Hou Mansion. When I was young, you were doing things for my father. Why are you still letting you come out to pick people up in person?"
After that, he glanced at Gu Shubai, seemingly complaining.
Qi An hurriedly explained: "Auntie don’t get me wrong, it is the old slave who wants to come. The old slave enjoys a lot of leisure in the house. It was Master Hou who sent me this old face to pick you up in order to show his welcome to you. Lest you look at others strangers."
Madam Su smiled now, "You Hou Ye too, let you come out of the earth, wouldn't it be impossible for Qi Zhou to come?"
In this world, only Mrs. Su would dare to pass Gu Huaijiang in front of the people of the Guhou Mansion.
In that compartment, the luggage on the ship had been neatly placed on the carriage, and Gu Jiuge glanced at it, and it was not enough to pack two large carriages.
It seems that Mrs. Su is planning to stay for a long time this time.
"Mrs. Auntie, Miss Watch, all the luggage is packed, please get in the car!"
Madam Su nodded, and then boarded the car sent by Guhou's Mansion with Su Yunyan. Gu Shubai and Gu Jiuge led their horses to lead the way.
Su Yunyan sat in the spacious and magnificent carriage, and looked out at the corner of the driving curtain, feeling more glamorous.
"Mother, I still like being in the imperial capital. Shall we stay here for a while longer?"
Mrs. Su saw the sight of her sneaking up on the street and thought she liked the bustling and bustling of the imperial capital, so she smiled and said: "We Jinling is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.
"It's not because of prosperity!"
Su Yunyan pouted, "After my father passed away, when did we go out in Jinling and have such a beautiful scenery? And the little official at Dutou, the attitude towards us immediately changed when he saw people in Guhou's Mansion! Even if his father is alive! , There is no such a beautiful scenery under the name of Guhou Mansion!"
The elder son of Guhou's mansion and the second son made their way in person, and the housekeeper personally picked them up, which is nothing like that.
Su Yunyan has been pampered since she was little, and enjoys this kind of scenery extremely.
Hearing her words about her father's death, Madam Su's eyes were sad for a moment, and then she shook her head helplessly.
"You, I spoiled you since I was a kid. Our Su family is one of the best in Jinling, and a scholarly family. What about you? You just don’t want to study hard, but fortunately, you are even the rich and wealthy of the Su family. I look down on it."
Su Yunyan saw that she looked like she was helpless, and knew that she was reluctant to blame herself, smiled and leaned forward, leaning her head in Madam Su's arms.
"In terms of wealth, apart from the royal family, who can compare to Guhou Mansion? Mother, how can I be considered a lofty man? Didn't you say you want to marry me to Guhou Mansion?"
When she married into Guhou's Mansion, she would enjoy this wealth. At that time, she would not be considered a lofty place, but she should have been.
Madam Su was so petting and helpless, she clicked on her forehead.
"You, how old you are still acting like a baby! I mentioned this to your uncle, but he did not agree. He even refused to marry his majesty, saying that he wanted the sons to marry the girl they like. If they don't Like you, that's useless."
Su Yunyan snorted and raised his head proudly.
"I was born beautiful, why would my cousins dislike me? What's more, even if your uncle refuses your majesty, he won't necessarily refuse your mother. Who doesn't know, uncle respects you the eldest sister the most!"
She beat Madam Su's leg like a flattery, Madam Su smiled comfortably when she heard this.
"Yeah. We grew up together. When he was young, his father forced him to practice martial arts. The cold winter and heat never stopped. Sometimes I didn't give him food when he didn't practice well. I secretly gave him food. Our family rules, my daughter I came here spoiled. Even if my father knew that I was wrong, he would not punish me..."
"That's it?"
Su Yunyan seems to be more confident than Mrs. Su, "Uncle will definitely agree to the mother's proposal. Mother, do you think I should marry the eldest brother or the second brother?"
He snorted triumphantly, "Anyway, I don't want to marry that sick seedling, anything else is fine."
