Chapter 158 Banquet
Chapter 158 Banquet
After Gu Ping left, the Gu family fell into silence. Lin Wulang was always worried about her, afraid that she would encounter danger on the road.
Gu Ping's husband and several others also placed a Buddha statue in the yard and knelt down to pray, hoping that the statue would bless Gu Ping to return safely.
Chen is Gu Ping's second husband and they don't have any children yet, so naturally she doesn't want Gu Ping to be safe.
He hoped that she could pass the imperial examination so that he could also have a status in her family.
He was the son of County Magistrate Chen, but his father was never favored. Although her father was the first doctor, her mother's favorite was the second doctor.
Fortunately, his father gave birth to his sister, and his sister was also a scholar, otherwise his father would probably have no status in the Chen family.
If it weren't for the fact that he was about the same age as Gu Ping, the position of Gu Shao's second husband probably wouldn't have been his.
His second father's son also wanted to compete with him, but fortunately he was only ten years old, much younger than Gu Ping, so he was now particularly grateful that he was the same age as Gu Ping.
Only after entering the Gu family did he realize that his life was really good, with good things to use every day.
He even has a status in the Gu family, not to mention that he also made his father's life in the Chen family much easier.
His sister's resources have also increased a lot, so he hopes that Gu Ping will be fine and it would be great if he could have a child.
But because he was the second husband, he never thought of competing with the first husband.
After all, Wang Qillang's dowry was much larger than his, and even Wang Qillang's family had a higher status than his mother's.
His father had taught him before he got married that as long as he lived well and established himself, he should not think about anything else and should not think about replacing Gu Ping's doctor because he had no talent or ability.
As long as he can stay in the position of the second husband, he will live a good life, and his father and his sister will also live a good life.
Gu Ping's backyard was better, so she could study with peace of mind.
She was very satisfied with the harmony in Gu Ping's backyard. For Gu Yao, as long as she couldn't manage the backyard, she wouldn't have much to achieve.
When she becomes successful in the future, if she fails to manage her backyard well, it may cause major mistakes in her career, and she may even encounter some evil spirits.
Sometimes Gu Yao would come over and warn Gu Ping not to indulge in male beauty.
She felt that the current state was good enough, and she would be able to manage more servants in the future.
Wang Qilang was a strict but methodical housekeeper, so his two wives admired him very much.
Wang Qillang didn't care much about the other two people who came later. To him, the three of them were of equal status, but she was a doctor after all.
As long as he doesn't challenge her position, Wang Qilang won't do anything. After all, the Gu family won't allow him to do anything.
His mother-in-law's second husband was sent to the farm for two years just because he wanted to take action, and he hasn't come out yet.
This year, his wife's eldest brother is about to get engaged, and he has no intention of letting her out.
So she always knew what she could and could not do.
With Gu Ping's departure, the Gu family became very quiet. It was quiet until the Cong family's family dinner, and the second young lady of the Cong family was also going to take the imperial examination.
Gu Yao also knew that if there were no problems with her marriage to the Cong family, they would definitely get engaged.
But I don't know whether the second daughter of the Cong family can pass the examination to become a scholar.
If you pass the exam, that's a good thing. If you fail, there's nothing you can do.
But based on his conditions, I think we should be able to find him a good teacher.
The academy in Shicheng is also very good, but this is not a big deal after all. She is still young and if she works hard, she should be able to pass the imperial examination.
He also didn't want his son to marry a Baisheng, after all, their social status was different.
He has many connections and a high position, but he will also grow old. As the second daughter, the family will definitely be divided. After the division, he will not be able to take advantage of the Cong family, so he can only rely on himself.
On that day, Lin Wulang brought a few men from his family who were able to come out to visit Cong Shoubei's home.
Doctor Cong already knew his wife's plan, so he was naturally very enthusiastic towards the Gu family.
Moreover, even if there is no such relationship, he will be very enthusiastic. After all, he is the top leader of Shicheng.
It is said that Cong Shoubei has a high position, but Gu Jia is a fifth-rank official, and he is also the top leader. Civil officials are higher than military officials, so she is also willing to build a relationship with the country.
In fact, he also hopes that his daughter can marry the eldest son of the Gu family.
She liked this boy very much. He was gentle and independent-minded, and very suitable for her eldest daughter.
If his eldest daughter had not been married for a long time and was a little older than Gu Ning, he would have wanted his eldest daughter to be together.
Fortunately, the girls that Gu Ning was going to marry were all his daughters, so he was very enthusiastic about Gu Ning.
Gu Ning was a little uncomfortable with this, but he was a very dignified person, and now he had his own shop and land at home, so he could handle these big situations.
This solemnity also made Cong Dafulang like him even more. He put the bracelet on Gu Ping's hand and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, I like Aning very much. Please treat your Aning as my son. I will definitely treat him well and let him live a good life."
Gu Ning was a little surprised when he heard his words, and quickly looked up at them.
Listening to Doctor Lang's words, I felt that he was a little too self-deprecating, but the child smiled and said, "This matter still depends on my wife. After all, Aning is my wife's first son, so this matter should be discussed with her. What's more, I also like Doctor Cong. Your daughters are all good and make me jealous."
Lin Wulang was naturally happy that Doctor Cong liked Gu Ning, not to mention that Lin Wulang was also quite optimistic about the daughter of the Cong family.
He also liked the Cong family's daughter very much. She had a pure heart and was very polite to others. He felt that such a girl was very suitable for his Aning.
But as a man, he can't be too full, it's better to be a little more reserved. This way, others can know that his family is very strict with rules.
Doctor Cong was happy to hear what Lin Wulang said. He thought that if Gu Ning could really become his son-in-law, he would definitely treat him well.
Gu Ning is the eldest son of the Gu family. He is so good-looking and even outstanding. He is more than enough to be a match for her second daughter.
I hope her daughter can pass the exam and become a scholar this time, so that her chances of success in advance will be higher.
Although it is possible that the wives of both families agree, it will not work if his daughter is unwilling.
Gu Ning also met many young men at this banquet and got along well with them. After all, Gu Lin was a very good person.
He acted generously, dignified and polite, which made some of the husbands present like him very much.
Many people asked Lin Wulang about Gu Ning's marriage, but Gu Ning would not tell anyone casually, after all, they and the Cong family might become relatives.
