Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

Chapter 247

"Third uncle, Xiaofang has a date?" Gu Mingxi asked in surprise.

Although they are separated by generations, because they are close in age and have studied together, the Gu family sisters have a good relationship with them, and they occasionally communicate with each other.

But before today, they obviously didn't know that Gu Fang had a partner.

Uncle Gu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I brought it back in the first year."

"Then shall we go there together?" Gu Mingnan also asked.

Gu Sanshu shook his head and said: "Bringing it back now, I think it's going to be here for the New Year. There will be plenty of opportunities then."

After taking Gu Mingdong outside, Third Uncle Gu said in a low voice, "If your second elder brother and second sister-in-law are stupid later, you have to stop them."

The reason why he brought Gu Mingdong with him was because Uncle Gu knew that Wang Feng was not afraid of anything at home, but now that the child has grown up, Gu Weiguo can't hold her down even with a divorce.

But she was a little afraid of Gu Mingdong, and usually walked around him.

Gu Mingdong nodded in agreement.

Before entering the door, the two heard laughter coming from the room, Gu Mingdong smiled and said: "It seems that we get along well."

Uncle Gu also heaved a sigh of relief, and when he entered the room, he saw several people sitting on the Eight Immortals table talking, and beside Gu Fang was a man in his early twenties, looking young and gentle, he was also considered handsome.

It was rare that Gu Ting was there, Gu Wei hugged her and sat on the other side.

There were good tea and snacks on the table. It seemed that after the lessons of last year, Wang Feng knew how to treat guests.

"Grandpa, Uncle Adong." Seeing them coming in, Gu Fang immediately stood up.

"Brother Dong, these are my grandfather and uncle." Gu Fang said to the man beside her, "It's no coincidence that you both have the word Dong in your name."

"Hello, grandpa, hello uncle." Zhao Dong got up quickly and said.

When Uncle Gu looked at this man, he couldn't help frowning slightly, not because he thought he was bad, but because he was so kind.

Not to mention his age and appearance, just look at what he is wearing, what he is wearing on his feet, and the watch he is wearing on his hand is not cheap, and looking at the gifts placed next to him, it seems that the price is not cheap.

How could such a man be willing to marry into the second child's house?

Gu Mingdong didn't think too much about it: "Hello, are you Xiaofang's friend? Are you still used to coming here?"

Gu Weiguo had already given up his seat, Gu Sanshu sat down, and asked Gu Mingdong to sit beside him.

Zhao Dong said with a smile: "I'm used to it. I'm from Daishan City. Our climate is similar."

As he spoke, he got up and wanted to help them light cigarettes.

After a few words, it is not difficult to find that this young man is quite capable of making troubles. Wang Feng is such a picky person, but he was coaxed into a daze by him. After a while, he almost called his son-in-law.

Gu Mingdong didn't smoke, and just brushed aside. It was just strange that Gu Fang seemed particularly nervous today, and his smile was stiff.

Uncle Gu took a puff of cigarette, frowned again when he saw the sign, and couldn't help asking: "Young man, I'm going to ask you the truth. Seeing that your family background is good and you are also very good, why did you agree to come here?" Are you going to be the son-in-law?"

Wang Feng's face froze, and he said awkwardly: "Dad, look at what you said, Zhao Dong is good, but our Xiaofang is also good, she is still the first batch of college students, and now she is a cadre in the factory."

"I didn't talk to you, let him think up his own answer." Gu Sanshu glared at his wife.

Everyone on the table looked towards Zhao Dong.

Gu Fang obviously became more nervous, she reached out and secretly tugged at Zhao Dong's sleeve.

Zhao Dong also frowned, stood up and said, "Grandpa, you two uncles and aunts, you have misunderstood."

"Actually, I came here today to propose marriage to you, please agree to marry Xiaofang to me."

"What? Marriage proposal?"

Wang Feng exclaimed: "Gu Fang, you dead girl, what the hell are you doing? Back then, you agreed to recruit a son-in-law, otherwise I would not have agreed with you to go to college, but now you have graduated and are working. The wings are hard and you refuse, don’t you?”

"If I had known that you were raised as an unfilial daughter, she should have been strangled to death when she was born, so as not to be angry with me now."

Seeing his daughter-in-law scolding harshly, Uncle Gu said coldly: "Okay, sit down and let someone speak slowly."

"Dad, what else is there to talk about? If I marry a daughter, I can't find a son-in-law, and it's his turn?"

Gu Fang's eyes were already red, she held her hand tightly, lowered her head and said nothing.

A flash of distress flashed in Zhao Dong's eyes, he stretched out his hand to hold her fist, and said, "Auntie, you can open the bride price as you like, but I am the only child, and the family will not allow me to come to the door."

"Then what a fart, you are wasting our family's efforts for nothing."

"Okay!" Gu Sanshu slapped the table violently.

Wang Feng wanted to speak again, but Gu Mingdong looked at her: "Sister-in-law, it's not a feudal society and you can arrange marriages now, you will only make things stiff, why don't you sit down and talk slowly."

Wang Feng was so angry that his chest heaved and he sat down suddenly: "Anyway, I won't agree."

"Wei Guo, you should say something."

Gu Weiguo was no longer as happy as before. He frowned and said, "Xiaofang, you agreed to recruit a son-in-law back then, and we didn't force you."

Before Gu Fang opened her mouth, tears fell one by one: "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I agreed at the beginning, but I didn't expect to meet Brother Dong, he is the only child, how could their family allow him to come to the door?" ah."

"I don't care if their family agrees or not. Anyway, our family only wants to marry." Wang Feng shouted.

Zhao Dong reached out and patted Gu Fang's hand, giving her a reassuring look.

"Uncle and aunt, I also know that this makes you very embarrassed, but I really like Xiaofang and want to be with her."

Wang Feng sneered and said, "If you want to be together, you can marry. I don't want to beat mandarin ducks."

Uncle Gu looked at him: "Then what do you mean?"

Zhao Dong said: "Uncle, there is not only Xiaofang a daughter in the old Gu family, if you agree to her marrying into the Zhao family, I am willing to give a gift of 1000 yuan."

"You want to buy my daughter for 1000 yuan?" Wang Feng snorted coldly, but then suddenly realized, "What, 1000 yuan."

Zhao Dong nodded and said: "A penny is a lot, even if Xiaofang doesn't have a dowry of one yuan, I will not bully her."

Only giving a bride price, not a dowry, that is not the same as giving 1000 yuan to the old Gu's family.

This is a full 1000 yuan. With the current average salary, it will take ten years to work without eating or drinking.

Wang Feng originally opposed it outright, but at this moment her heart trembled, and she couldn't say anything against it for a while.

Zhao Dong is a good person, and he said persistently: "If uncle and aunt have other requests, you can also ask them."

"Wei, Weiguo, what do you think?" Wang Feng was obviously fascinated by these words, and stretched out his hand to grab Gu Weiguo.

Gu Weiguo frowned and snorted coldly: "My family is rich, no matter if it's a marriage or a daughter, I don't care about money."

"One, 1000 yuan." Wang Feng muttered.

While speaking, he glanced at Gu Wei: "Anyway, we still have Xiao Wei in our family, so it's the same for her to recruit a son-in-law."

Uncle Gu has been frowning since he entered the door. Originally, he was worried that the child Xiaofang brought home would be bullied, but now it seems that he is just worrying about it. They have big plans.

But at this time he had to say: "Xiaofang, do you agree with this matter?"

"When you recruited a son-in-law, you said it yourself. Now that you have found the one, you push it to your sister?"

Gu Fang clenched the corners of her mouth, she would only cry there.

Zhao Dong was so distressed that he said, "Grandpa, I know we are wrong about this matter. When Xiaowei finds a suitable partner, I am willing to help her with a gift."

"Qianqianqian, you look like a pretty good kid, why do you only think about money?" Uncle Gu was very dissatisfied.

Seeing that he was angry, Gu Fang wiped away her tears and said, "Grandpa, I, I really like Brother Dong, so please help me."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gu Mingdong: "Uncle Adong, you are the one who loves my daughter the most, please help me persuade grandpa and parents."

Compared to Gu Wei, Gu Mingdong only remembered that Gu Fang was a girl with a gentle personality, and her relationship with Wang Feng was much stronger than that of her younger sister, but she didn't expect that she had been out for a few years, and she seemed to have changed.

Gu Mingdong laughed: "This is your family's business, how can I intervene."

"Uncle Adong?" Gu Fang asked anxiously.

Gu Mingdong said again: "But I am also an elder, since you asked me to speak, then I will say a few words."

"Although the matter of getting married was your parents' idea, you didn't object. It's unethical of you to push it to your sister now."

Gu Fang wiped her tears and said: "I know I'm sorry for Xiaowei, Xiaowei, I will definitely make it up to you in the future, you believe in my sister."

Gu Wei's face was not very good-looking, it's not that she didn't like it, but that her sister didn't talk to her about it.

Obviously they have been exchanging letters, but my sister didn't mention a word.

Gu Wei felt a little cold in her heart, but seeing her sister's tears streaming down her face, she still said, "Mom and Dad, just promise her, I'm willing to stay at home."

Gu Ting seemed to be frightened, she hid in Gu Wei's arms without saying a word, just patted Gu Wei's back one after another.

Gu Wei hugged her youngest sister tightly, feeling a little hesitant in her heart for a moment, but after thinking about it, she didn't have a man she liked anyway, it was the same everywhere.

When Gu Fang heard that she said yes, she immediately smiled: "Xiaowei, thank you."

Gu Mingdong looked at Zhao Dong again: "This is your first time here, logically speaking, the son-in-law with hairy feet should be very nervous."

"I, I was nervous, I really mustered up the courage to say it." Zhao Dong said hastily.

Gu Mingdong nodded, and then said: "Those who keep their mouths open for 1000 yuan, those who know say that you are sincere, those who don't know think that you plan to spend this 1000 yuan to buy out a daughter-in-law directly."

Gu Weiguo stubbed out the cigarette butt, and said, "That's what I meant just now."

Zhao Dong quickly explained: "Uncle, you really misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I just wanted to express my sincerity."

Gu Mingdong frowned slightly, and looked at Gu Fang, but Gu Fang only lowered her head, holding the man's hand tightly, without any reaction.
