Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 252 Congratulations

Fu Yaoning is the most favored daughter of the Fu family, and the Fu family is a prominent family with rich financial resources. Her dowry can be described as ten miles of red makeup, which is very spectacular.

The crowd watching could not help but talk and exclaim, praising the youngest daughter of the Fu family for marrying the eldest son of the Zhou family, saying that it was a perfect match, a strong alliance, and a perfect marriage.

Gu Huatong looked at the wedding procession passing by and said to the person beside her with envy, "Brother Jingchen, my dowry will definitely not be worse than hers in the future."

Tang Jingchen smiled, "That's for sure. Your Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang love you so much, they will definitely give you some dowry and let you marry in style."

Gu Huatong raised her eyebrows and smiled mysteriously, but did not respond. She did not want the Tang family to add to her dowry. Her own family was enough to give her a decent and glorious dowry. What she wanted was for the Tang family to give her a betrothal gift that would be the envy of all the noble ladies in the capital city.

She had just heard from her father not long ago that she and Brother Jingchen had an arranged marriage, but slowly, as time passed, her father's official position became higher and higher, and the two families realized that they were not a good match, one in the government and the other in business, so they both tacitly chose to "forget".

But for some reason, some time ago, my parents suddenly brought it up and kept praising Brother Jingchen as a good boy who could be trusted for life. She had always had a good impression of the elegant and polite Brother Jingchen, and at that moment she thought that marrying him might be a good choice. Although he did not hold an official position, his family was rich and wealthy, which was enough to last for several lifetimes and was enough for her to enjoy a luxurious life.

Unfortunately, when my father tentatively mentioned to Uncle Tang when he planned to find a wife for his son, he said that Brother Jingchen had already decided to get married next year. Although the woman had no family, she was of excellent appearance and character.

Gu Huatong felt disdainful after hearing this. The Tang family did not despise a woman without a family.

Originally, she thought it would be okay to condescend and marry into the Tang family, but she didn't expect that the Tang family had never even considered taking her home.

The more I thought about it, the more unwilling I felt, and an inexplicable stubbornness gradually arose in my heart.

I don't know why, but my father and mother both thought of how to make the Tang family change their minds.

In addition, her father often praised to her how outstanding Brother Jingchen was, which made her feel more and more that she must marry into the Tang family.

"Brother Jingchen, let's go quickly, or we will miss the fun."

"it is good."

The Tang family, Zhou family and Fu family did not have any close friendship, they just had some interactions, so on a day like today it would be enough to just send a gift.

Just this morning, Gu Huatong and her mother came to visit the Tang family. When she heard that he was going to send a gift, she clamored to join in the fun.

Seeing this, Tang's mother had no choice but to ask her son to deliver the gift personally and take good care of Gu Huatong.

The two of them then came to Zhou's house together.

The gate and plaque of Zhou Mansion were all decorated with bright red silk, creating a festive atmosphere everywhere.

The constant flow of guests made the front of Zhou's mansion extremely lively.

After Gu Huatong and Tang Jingchen delivered the gifts, they walked towards the backyard of the Zhou family which was specially set up to entertain guests.

On the way through the garden decorated with rockery and ponds, Gu Huatong couldn't help but stop to look, "Brother Jingchen, there is a cool breeze here and the scenery is nice. Why don't we sit in the corridor for a while? The banquet over there must be noisy and chaotic, it's better to be quiet here."

Tang Jingchen naturally followed her wishes and replied calmly, "Okay."

The two of them sat in the pavilion by the pond and looked out at the scenery in the garden. It was indeed quiet and pleasant.

From time to time, there were a few guests passing by. If they were friends they knew, they would just smile and say hello.

At this time, Xiao Guoer came to Zhou Mansion with the Eighth Prince, holding gifts.

After all, Zhao Yunrong was a distinguished prince, so the Zhou family's master Zhou Daoshi and the eldest son Zhou Fangye did not dare to neglect him and came out to greet him in person, both with a look of being flattered.

"Your Highness the Eighth Prince's presence truly brings honor to my humble abode."

Zhou Daoshi bowed and Zhou Fangye stood behind him with a respectful look on his face.

"Your son is very happy today, and I have come to share his good fortune. Sir Zhou, there is no need to be polite."

While the Eighth Prince was chatting with someone, Xiao Guoer deliberately looked at Zhou Fangye who was not far away.

The groom's suit was very festive, and made Zhou Fangye look three times more handsome than usual. However, when she looked closely, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight since the last time she saw him. Although he had a faint smile on his face, the gentleness between his brows had completely disappeared, replaced by a vague gloom.

The eyes that were full of tenderness and affection towards Yingniang in the past seemed to have lost that warmth. When he unexpectedly saw Xiaoguo'er behind the Eighth Prince, he was stunned for a moment because of surprise, and then frowned. His eyes instantly showed a look of hostility and ridicule, and before Xiaoguo'er could see clearly, Zhou Fangye shifted his gaze indifferently.

Hey, what's with that heartless guy's eyes?! I haven't even come to him to question him yet, but he's already showing off his hatred!

But it seems that Zhou Fangye is not having a good life. Xiao Guoer glared at Zhou Fangye from behind Zhao Yunrong and said to herself, "Serves him right!"
