Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The three children in the Su family were also close to Gu Zi, showing that she genuinely treated them well.
After confirming that Gu Zi was well-matched with Su Shen, Mrs. He and her friends felt relieved. They were ready to go back and reassure their husbands. Su Bing and Su Li, who were playing on the side, were very happy.
Su Li whispered to his sister, “You too, can’t make Mom angry in the future, okay?”
Su Le was a bit bewildered, but as soon as she heard the word “Mom,” she didn’t care anymore. She nodded repeatedly, saying, “Okay, okay!” Su Li tried again, saying, “Mom said Lele is a little silly.”
Su Le nodded again, giggling.
Su Li said, “Mom is the best!” Su Le clapped her hands and responded, “Yes, yes!”
Su Li figured it out—no matter what he said, as long as it had the words “Mom,” the little one would be excited. She just couldn’t say it yet, but she also loved Mom very much.
Mrs. He noticed this scene with the children and smiled sincerely. She exchanged a few words with the two other ladies beside her in a low voice. One of them went out, and their driver brought in some items.
There were seven large gift boxes, with the transparent side revealing red envelopes and golden bracelets inside. Mrs. He took her own and handed the box to Gu Zi. In addition to the red envelope, hers contained a more valuable gold chain necklace.
She said, “You should wear this gold chain on your wedding day. Su Shen’s parents left early, so Uncle He and I have prepared this for you. These gifts, including some brought by others, have blessing letters inside. Su Shen knows who they are.”
Gu Zi felt that it was a bit too valuable. She looked to Su Shen for help with her eyes.
Immediately, she heard Su Shen say, “Thank you for your concern.”
After expressing gratitude, Su Shen accepted the gifts on her behalf and assured the three ladies that they would be worn on the wedding day.
Gu Zi appeared calm on the surface, but internally, she was already thinking—what if everyone wears these, will it blind the eyes of those attending the wedding?
Although it was a custom to receive gold and silver gifts at weddings, she still felt a bit pressured when it came to herself.
Outside the gate, many people gathered upon hearing the news, pretending to pass by the Su family but actually coming to watch the excitement.
Three small cars were parked in front of the Su family’s house, each with a dedicated driver. It was evident that the visitors had some status, as Su Shen was a wealthy man and had connections with influential people.
They believed that Su Shen, who could manage a pig farm, couldn’t be a fool.
It was clear that Su Shen took this marriage seriously, not only organizing the wedding grandly but also involving the Su family ancestral hall.
This kind of treatment, neither the previous woman who married into the family nor the one who took a dowry of three thousand yuan and didn’t marry had experienced.
It showed that Gu Zi had indeed gained Su Shen’s approval.
All the rumors circulating in the village were just baseless gossip, probably spread by jealous individuals.
As people discussed these matters, they saw Su Shen and Gu Zi escorting the three noble ladies out. The scene seemed like something out of a TV drama. Especially Gu Zi, she wasn’t overshadowed by the powerful aura of the three noble ladies. On the contrary, she displayed the grace and gentleness befitting a gracious host, standing next to the tall and handsome Su Shen, looking exceptionally pleasing.
With her demeanor, it was clear that she wouldn’t engage in malicious deeds.
After the three cars had driven away, the couple returned to the house and brought all the gift boxes upstairs.
Su Shen instructed Gu Zi to write down the names, amounts of money, and details of the gifts in a notebook. In the future, if these people had any requests, they would reciprocate accordingly.
Once these tasks were completed, Gu Zi stored the gold lock and bracelets separately. When she came out, she accidentally kicked the leg of a stool, stumbling a bit.
Su Shen strode over and steadied her, catching her as she leaned forward. He lifted her and placed her gently on the bed.
He asked tenderly, “Why are you still being absent-minded?”
Gu Zi looked up at him and said, “1 just didn’t expect you to be so popular.” She thought that she had a discerning eye.
Su Shen sat by the bed and hugged her. The faint fragrance of her filled the air. His large hand held hers, surprisingly soft and delicate, with slender fingers.
