After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 215

Gu Shuang's small face flushed anxiously, "Mother, what are you saying?! I'm still young now, no rush to get married... Oh dear, sister, please help explain to Mother on my behalf."

Young Master Ye is sitting here... Talking about marriage feels so embarrassing with an outsider around.

She carefully glanced at the expressionless handsome face of the man, feeling inexplicably nervous and shy in her heart.

"It's time for a man to marry when grown up, and a woman to marry when matured, what's there to feel shy about, there's no outsider here, let your Aunt Qin take a good look at you."

Gu Shuang's two red lips seemed to almost bleed, her originally fair complexion blushing attractively from shyness.

The more Qin looked, the more she liked her. She glanced at her own son with his proper and gentle tight-lipped face, secretly making up her mind in her heart.

Gu Ying smiled faintly, not saying anything directly, only reminding, "Auntie, I feel that my fourth sister's marriage should be more prudent, the other party's background and status are secondary, but they must definitely find a family that dotes and pampers her."

After all, fourth sister's matter with Fu Xunzhi has not been completely settled yet, now is not the right time to reveal things.

She would stabilize Aunt Zhao first, and when Lantern Festival comes, Fu Xunzhi will propose marriage to the Gu family. It happens that she can return to the Gu family then, and settle fourth sister and Young Master Fu's engagement together.

Aunt Zhao laughed, "What Eldest Miss Gu said makes sense. Status and position are indeed unimportant. The main thing is to find someone who loves my Shuang'er to take good care of her for life, and not let her suffer any grievances." As a mother, I have no other thoughts, just hoping she can live safely and peacefully for life."

Gu Ying deeply agreed.

Her fourth sister must marry Fu Xunzhi.

Qin and Aunt Zhao have come to know each other through unexpected events. From initial dislike to later obtaining her medicinal ointment from Qin and using it after returning home, the cough cough... effects were quite good indeed, so interactions between them increased.

She laughed, "The young lady looks very lovely. I will take a look around the major families later and see if there is anyone suitable and let you know."

Aunt Zhao was delighted, "With Madam Qin making a move, this is really my Shuang'er's blessing."

After all, given the Ye family's status here, although Madam Qin's temperament and character are disliked by noblewomen, once she steps in, it would be the daughter-in-law of the prestigious Ye family and the legal wife of the Imperial Censor.

If she helps to negotiate, she will definitely be able to find a good family with high status and power for Shuang'er.

Hearing this, Gu Shuang became even more anxious, looking nervously back and forth between Gu Ying.

Gu Ying gave her a reassuring look, telling her to relax and that she has this matter at heart.

After the ladies finished exchanging family matters, Aunt Zhao told Gu Ying about the recent situation at the Gu residence.

Gu Ying listened attentively for a while and told the servants to prepare a table of dishes.

After lunch, she left her aunt and Aunt Zhao to chat for a while longer and pulled Gu Shuang aside to talk.

Back in the main room, Gu Shuang looked extremely flushed, "Sister, what to do now... I didn't expect Mother to suddenly tell Madam Qin about marriage arrangements. You know what Mother is like, she always says status doesn't matter but actually cares most about the other party's background and wealth... Mother would definitely look down on someone like Young Master Fu..."

"Alright." Gu Ying comforted and patted the little girl on the back, telling her to sit down and pouring her a cup of hot milk. "You just relax for now and wait first. We'll decide after Fu Xunzhi comes to propose."

She naturally had confidence to persuade Aunt Zhao to agree to this marriage.

Hearing Gu Ying's words, Gu Shuang finally calmed down. "Alright, I'll listen to Sister."

Gu Ying asked with a smile, "After the New Years, Lantern Festival is approaching soon. Has he looked for you again?"

Gu Shuang shook her head coyly, "No, he's an honorable man who said before the relationship is announced, he will not come see me. But he also said he has arranged everything and will righteously come to marry me."

Gu Ying rubbed her temples helplessly. To think the Crown Prince can hardly be called a gentleman based on this. If just putting aside his jade-carved handsome face, he probably has very little difference from some uncouth bandit.

Still, sweetness filled her heart as she looked at the setting Golden Crow sun and fluttering snow outside the window, suddenly missing him.

Not knowing what time will he return this evening. He promised to bring back Osmanthus wine and red bean dessert for her from Luoshen Pavilion.

She was already looking forward to seeing him.

"Sister?" Gu Shuang waved her hand in front of Gu Ying's face.

Gu Ying returned to her senses, her lips curling into a smile. "What's the matter?"

"Is Brother-in-Law leaving before or after Lantern Festival?"

Hearing this, Gu Ying felt slight loss in her heart. "Before Lantern Festival."

Everything needed in the residence has been prepared, Qilin Army's final training arrangement have also been done recently.

In three or two days, the Crown Prince should depart for Yueyang with them.

This going away, with uncertain dangers ahead, who knows when he would come back.

Knowing how difficult parting will be for a newly married couple, Gu Shuang comforted with a smile. "Don't worry Sister. When Brother-in-Law leaves, I'll talk to Mother and come live with you for a while, alright?"

Gu Ying curved her eyes with a smile. "Good."

After the sisters finished talking, Aunt Zhao had sent someone to urge them over.

Gu Shuang hugged her sister, feeling that this Ying sister has become more and more soft with tender flesh, her figure plump and curvy, delicate and lovely, not just Brother-in-Law, even she as a woman couldn't help liking as well.

She laughed and nuzzled into her sister's embrace, sniffing the alluring scent and said, "Sister, I'll go first. You must remember and come back for Lantern Festival."

Gu Ying nodded, sending off Aunt Zhao and Gu Shuang.

Turning back, she saw her cousin still standing behind her, his gaze distant and staring into space, seeming to be looking at Fourth Sister's back view.

Gu Ying noticed the black stain on his white robes, feeling slightly surprised. "Cousin, you didn't realize your robes were dirty?"

Ye Qingchi drew his attention back, still gentle and refined. "No matter, I'll wash it when I get back."

Gu Ying walked towards the residence while asking with laughter. "Where's my aunt?"

Ye Qingchi replied, "She just woke from her nap and left straight away."

"I see." Gu Ying further asked, "How is Jiang Yin recently?"

"As you expected, he became Prince Shu's follower and is relying on Prince Shu as his backer. He secretly pulled some ministers to his side under this cover and seems quite capable, not sure how, but able to swiftly grasp certain old ministers' handles."

Gu Ying was not surprised at all. For Jiang Yin who got a new lease of life through rebirth, these people were merely his pawns from his previous life that he could make use of again. Perhaps, even Prince Shu was unimportant to him.

She gave a cold mocking laughter. "What a clever man."

Ye Qingchi asked in puzzlement, "Why is Eldest Miss Gu so concerned with him?"

Gu Ying lifted her eyes to look deeply at him.

In her previous life when Cousin was ripped apart by Jiang Yin, he wasn't even of age yet... If Jiang Yin were to rise again, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The man bent his finger and tapped the little girl's forehead, laughing, "Don't look at me with those eyes. Be careful your husband becomes jealous and comes to make trouble with me."
