After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 378 The Uninvited Guest

The people in the Luo family agreed to this marriage purely because they liked Gu Mingda.

He was born in the imperial examination and was favored by the emperor. Now he was responsible for teaching the children of the royal family. Everyone knew that the future emperor might be hidden among these children.

Even though there was such a reason, the Luo family was actually not satisfied with this marriage. Gu Mingda was indeed the number one scholar, and they did work hard to facilitate this marriage.

But they couldn't help but think in their hearts, it would be great if Liu Xiaoru was Huanghua's eldest daughter, and it would be even better if she was Gu Mingda's biological sister.

Even though shopkeeper Luo's parents were suppressed by the clan and recognized the marriage with their noses pinched, there was no trace of joy on their faces even though their son was overjoyed today.

"How come we haven't come yet and we're about to miss the right time?" Aunt Luo couldn't help but murmured.

"Although the Gu family has a top pick, it is still a small family. Even on the wedding day, things are not planned carefully." Fourth Aunt Luo said in a weird way.

When the head of the Luo family heard this, he turned around and gave her a warning look.

Fourth Aunt Luo immediately said: "Patriarch, it's not that I mean to speak ill of the Gu family, but the auspicious date for this wedding was specially calculated by someone in charge. Only at this time can we prosper our Luo family."

Patriarch Luo's face didn't look very good at this time.

"From the third family, send someone to the street corner to see where the people are." The head of the Luo family said.

Time passed little by little, and the newcomer still hadn't arrived.

"This has missed the auspicious time. Isn't it unlucky?" someone murmured.

Shopkeeper Luo's parents' expressions were extremely ugly at this time.

"His second uncle, tell me why the third child is so stubborn. A few years ago, I introduced my niece to him, but he just didn't like it and insisted on finding someone he likes. Now it's better to marry him. A remarried woman." Fourth Aunt Luo went to shopkeeper Luo's parents to talk about old things.

Shopkeeper Luo's parents looked down on Fourth Aunt Luo's natal niece in the early years, feeling that her family was in decline and not worthy of their son. Now that they hear these words, the couple just feel bitter.

"His fourth aunt, I remember that your niece seems to have married into the Liu family. I heard that after three years of marriage, the Liu family has only one family for several generations, and the population is booming all of a sudden!" Fifth Aunt Luo was standing aside.

Shopkeeper Luo's parents felt even more uncomfortable. Even if Liu Xiaoru was married for the second time, she still couldn't have children! Their good son had his inheritance cut off at the hands of Liu Xiaoru!

Shopkeeper Luo's parents just found this place very annoying. They didn't want to deal with their relatives anymore and just wanted to find a place to hide quietly for a while.

Everyone suddenly saw a figure dressed as a servant running over from a distance.

"Aren't you from the Third Brother's side? Why did you suddenly come back?" Aunt Luo's Third Aunt asked casually.

Shopkeeper Luo's boy ran all the way over and said breathlessly to the people present: "Chief, we are very happy! Our family is very happy!"

Upon hearing this, the Luo family immediately became energetic and all gathered around.

But shopkeeper Luo's parents fell behind because they were in a bad mood.

"Our third young mistress has been granted a marriage by the Queen Mother, and she has been rewarded with many good things! Our third young master is also very honored!" Shopkeeper Luo's servant said loudly.

"Ah!" When everyone heard this, they suddenly exclaimed.

After all, I have only heard of the Queen Mother granting marriages to young masters and young ladies of high-ranking officials, but rarely to businessmen. This is a first for the Luo family.

The head of the Luo family couldn't care less about the people around him. He grabbed the boy's hand and asked, "What is going on? Tell me clearly!"

The boy shook his head and said, "We were at the Gu family. When we were about to go out, someone from the palace suddenly came. The third young lady didn't even know what was going on. The Gu family was also confused when they received the order. Patriarch, what are you going to do? No, you should go back and ask the third young master and the third young lady, they must know better than the younger one. "

Shopkeeper Luo's parents were suddenly pushed to the front by other clan members. "Congratulations, who would have thought that you could marry a daughter-in-law who comes with the Queen Mother's wedding decree!"

Shopkeeper Luo's parents were still angry at first, but when they heard this, their minds became dizzy.

"My daughter-in-law? Are you talking about my daughter-in-law?" Luo's father asked again and again.

The other Luo family members were also beaming with joy. Although it was Liu Xiaoru who was appreciated by the Queen Mother, the Luo family got this honor!

As businessmen, the Luo family has always been the best at speculation. As long as they seize the opportunity, they will cling to it like a snake on a stick.

"So what if I was given a marriage by the Queen Mother? I'm just a second-married woman who can't have children." The fourth aunt of the Luo family muttered in a low voice.

However, Luo's mother had a very good ear. She immediately rushed to the fourth aunt of the Luo family and said loudly: "My daughter-in-law is getting married, and the Queen Mother has given her permission to marry her! Do you have a niece?"

Fourth Aunt Luo couldn't help but said: "Your daughter-in-law can't give birth to a child..."

Luo's mother still repeated loudly: "She has a marriage decree from the Queen Mother! She has a dowry given by the Queen Mother! Does your niece have one?"

Fourth Aunt Luo:…

All the dissatisfaction that the parents of the Luo family had with Liu Xiaoru disappeared because of this great honor. The couple was no longer as dejected as before, now they all held their heads high, like generals who had won a battle.

The head of the Luo family originally wanted to tell the couple to be kind to their daughter-in-law, but when they saw the two going crazy, they recited loudly when they met: "My daughter-in-law has a marriage decree from the Queen Mother!"

The head of the Luo family suddenly felt that it was no longer necessary, and the two of them were quite able to comfort themselves.

When the newlyweds finally entered Luo's house at an unexpectedly auspicious time, they were faced with the overwhelming enthusiasm of all their relatives.

Shopkeeper Luo's parents didn't even sit in the high hall, but ran over in person, squeezing out Xiniang who was originally accompanying them, and supporting the newlyweds on one side and the other on the right.

"As long as you two are doing well, we will be satisfied!" Luo's father said with a smile.

"It's okay not to have children. Having children will hurt your health. Then there will be so many children in the clan for you to choose from!" Luo's mother also seemed to have changed.

Liu Xiaoru still remembered the critical eyes and arrogant attitudes of the couple when she met them half a month ago. Now, even if she couldn't see their expressions through the red hijab, she felt that they had changed their faces. attitude.

The Gu family's outing party is lunch.

As the banquet comes to an end, the guests gradually leave the table and say goodbye.

As close relatives of the Gu family, the Sun family had already left the table, and there was still one guest who had not left.

Gu Mingda and his wife did not urge him, but they suddenly realized that they did not know this person.

This man was tall and ordinary-looking, even rough. He was wearing ordinary silk and satin clothes, and there was no uninvited feeling of awkwardness in his movements.

His eyes were filled with frost, as if he had experienced many things.

While the Gu family was sizing up this man, the man was also sizing up the Gu family.

He poured himself a glass of wine, and then raised his glass to Gu Mingda.

The visitor was a guest, so Gu Mingda didn't have much to say, so he just offered a toast in return.

Gu Mingda nodded and suddenly saw that the clefts of the man's hands were covered with calluses.

"Master Gu, I have admired you for a long time." The tall man said with a smile.
