Chapter 52: Time Flies Too Fast
Gu Yu was a little confused by the sudden appearance of the messenger and wondered who would be sending a letter at this time!
Their family had only recently returned to Yang Family Village, which made it even more curious.
“Who is your master?”
“To answer Young Master Gu, my master’s surname is Shan.”
“Oh, Chengfeng Shan! But where’s the usual messenger who comes to my house? You look unfamiliar, this is your first time here, right!”
After clarifying that the messenger’s master was Chengfeng Shan, Gu Yu’s confusion was cleared. He then reached out and took the letter and asked casually, wondering where the previous messenger had gone!
If it were the previous messenger, Gu Yu would have recognized him.
“Heh heh, my master has some good news, and he’s already sent someone to the capital for help! However, because there weren’t enough people, my master sent me to deliver invitations everywhere.”
“Invitations?”
Hearing the messenger’s words, Gu Yu seemed to have thought of something. He quickly opened the envelope in his hand, and then saw the letter paper and red invitation inside. Immediately, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but turn up, and he knew why Chengfeng Shan had sent someone to deliver the letter.
At New Year’s, Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue were about to get married. He never expected… that they would finally tie the knot so soon.
“I will naturally attend your master’s joyous occasion.”
“Alright, with Young Master Gu’s word, I’m relieved! Next, I have to go to other places to deliver invitations, so I’ll take my leave first.”
Upon seeing that Gu Yu had guessed that Chengfeng Shan was about to get married, the messenger chuckled, and then wasted no more time here. Instead, he quickly mounted his horse and continued to deliver the invitations in his hand.
When leaving the capital, Chengfeng Shan had specifically instructed them to deliver the invitation to Gu Yu first. This showed how much he valued this family, and the messenger dared not be negligent.
He rode his horse at full speed and quickly delivered the letter to the Gu family.
However, looking at the Gu family, which was just an ordinary village family, why did the master value them so much?
It was truly bizarre.
With such doubts, the messenger raised his horsewhip and urged the horse to leave quickly.
Gu Yu, who was still standing at the door, was thinking about Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue, this couple who were now getting married. He couldn’t help but sigh… time really flew by so fast!
“Gu Yu, who was that just now?”
“Oh, that was the rich master who previously appreciated Qingheng. After visiting my house a few times, we have formed a deep friendship with my family. Now that he is getting married, he sent us an invitation.”
Just as Gu Yu was thinking about these things, the village chief’s voice suddenly rang out, making Gu Yu realize that the village chief hadn’t left yet!
Then, upon hearing the village chief’s doubts, Gu Yu didn’t say much and simply made up a reason.
It was better for him to understand his family’s situation. Even if he explained it, it wouldn’t be of much use, and it might even cause trouble. So, it was better not to say anything.
Although Gu Yu only said a few simple words, the village chief was shocked beyond words upon hearing this, thinking that the Gu family had truly prospered!
Not only was Mengyao’s hunter father not dead, but he had also become an amazing Vice General. Now, there was even a rich master showing up. The Gu family was truly destined for success!
When the village chief returned from town, he heard others say how arrogant Gu Yu was, but the village chief didn’t fully believe it. He then found a few more people to understand the situation. Upon hearing that Gu Yu had beaten people with imperial bestowed gold bars, he couldn’t help but draw the corner of his mouth speechlessly.
This method of hitting people was quite novel…
Then, looking at those who were slandering Gu Yu, they immediately looked up at the sky and down at the ground, just not daring to make eye contact with the village chief.
This made the village chief glare fiercely at these people, thinking that it was one thing for them to sow discord, but they even failed to mention such an important matter as imperial bestowed gold bars. Did they want him to go to Gu Yu’s house to inquire about the situation and get hit as well?
“Haha, young people should seize opportunities. I think your Gu family members are not ordinary people, and they will surely prosper in the future! You can rest assured and go. I’ll be in charge of the village, and absolutely nothing will happen to your family.”
“Then thank you, Village Chief.”
Thinking of these things, the village chief naturally dared not point fingers at Gu Yu, but instead had a very friendly attitude.
However, after speaking, seeing Gu Yu’s humble and sincere demeanor, the village chief felt quite happy, thinking that Gu Yu was not as unruly as others said.
It must be that others had bad intentions, so they intentionally exaggerated the facts and spoke of Gu Yu very poorly.
As a wise village chief, he must not be fooled!
Seeing the village chief leave with a smile, Gu Yu did not stand at the door for long. After closing the courtyard gate, he went to find Mengyao, wanting to tell her this good news.
“Mengyao! Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue are getting married!”
“What?”
When Gu Yu directly announced the good news, Mengyao, who was picking vegetables, heard it. Her expression was filled with surprise. She put down the vegetables in her hand, wiped her hands, and took Gu Yu back into the house. Then, she looked at the letter sent by Chengfeng Shan.
The content of the letter was nothing more than an invitation for the Gu family to attend the wedding. If they didn’t come, he and Lin Yue would be very sad, as the Gu family was the place where the two first met and held significant memories.
The Gu family members were also witnesses to their love.
The red invitation first listed the names of Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue, then the time of their marriage, and finally the names of Gu Yu, Mengyao, and Gu Qingheng as invited guests to the wedding banquet.
After Mengyao finished reading the invitation, she felt a sense of disbelief.
It wasn’t because they were getting married, but like Gu Yu, she felt that time had passed too quickly.
However, upon reflection, two years had already passed.
It wasn’t that fast.
“Ayu, it’s a great thing that Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue have achieved their happy ending! However, looking at the date, we will have to leave the village again.”
“Yes, we must go this time. After all, we’ve known each other for so long, it wouldn’t be good not to go.”
“Thinking about it now, meeting Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue feels like it happened not long ago. It truly makes one sigh with emotion!”
“This is the magic of time.”
While speaking, Gu Yu couldn’t help but smile when he saw his little wife looking so emotional.
Indeed, since he transmigrated, many things had happened.
However, the thing Gu Yu was most grateful for was marrying Mengyao… um, no, it was him marrying into the Gu family!
What’s wrong with being a kept man!
“But should we bring Qingheng along? Qingheng’s current learning status is improving, and if he goes to the capital again, he might not be able to study as diligently as he is now.”
Afterward, Mengyao became a little worried when she thought of Gu Qingheng.
Usually, when encountering such exciting events, Gu Qingheng would clamor to go. If he wasn’t allowed to go now, it might be a bit difficult.
Gu Qingheng was not very familiar with Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue, so it didn’t matter whether he went or not.
However, given Gu Qingheng’s recent performance, Mengyao still didn’t want him to be distracted, otherwise, it would be very difficult to regain his current state.
“Don’t worry, even if you let him go, Qingheng wouldn’t want to go.”
“???”
But then Gu Yu gave a mysterious smile, shook his head at Mengyao, and indicated that she didn’t need to worry about this.
Mengyao harbored some doubt about Gu Yu’s confidence.
Her brother was not someone who could be easily fooled…
Seeing Mengyao’s disbelieving expression, Gu Yu had to take Mengyao to his younger brother-in-law’s room to ask him directly, so that Mengyao could be relieved.
“Chengfeng Shan and Lin Yue are getting married? The wedding banquet is to be held in the capital soon? Oh, I’m not going.”
As a result, Gu Qingheng refused without any hesitation after hearing the news.
This made Mengyao look at Gu Qingheng with confusion, wondering if this was her brother who liked to get involved in everything? Why was he so abnormal today? Could it be that his brain had been corrupted by studying!!!
If that were the case…
“Sis, I’m completely normal now. I’ve even added an extra bowl of food, and there’s nothing wrong!”
Seeing the wrong expression on Mengyao’s face, Gu Qingheng, who understood her very well, quickly spoke, stating that he was really fine!!!
His sister loved to overthink things!
Even his brother-in-law, who was standing by, couldn’t help but laugh, clearly knowing why he wouldn’t attend the wedding. Only his sister was a bit slow, which made him very frustrated!
Thinking of these things, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but sigh helplessly, thinking that he would not go to the capital for the next three years.
“Qingheng, you usually like to attend such events, don’t you?”
“That was in the past. I only like to study now. Don’t let anything distract me… Have you finished talking? If so, please leave quickly and don’t disturb my studies.”
After Gu Qingheng gave the order to leave, Gu Yu quickly took Mengyao away, who still wanted to ask more, to avoid making his younger brother-in-law more embarrassed.
His little wife was still quite slow.
But, quite cute.
Heh heh heh.
“Ayu, why did you bring me out? Perhaps you’re right, Qingheng’s brain must have been corrupted, so even his personality has changed…”
“Mengyao, Qingheng is fine. He just doesn’t want to go to that sad place in the capital anymore.”
“?”
“Before, Lian Tang and Qingheng spent a lot of time exploring the capital. If they go to the capital again, they will remember Lian Tang’s appearance and demeanor, which will make him even more uncomfortable, so he doesn’t want to participate.”
“So that’s how it is.”
After hearing Gu Yu’s explanation, Mengyao finally understood the reason.
Then she patted her head, thinking that she was really too stupid, and had forgotten about this matter.
Since Lian Tang left the Gu family, although Gu Qingheng appeared to be fine, he would sometimes stare blankly at the sky. This made Mengyao sigh helplessly, thinking that perhaps time could solve everything.
Gu Qingheng and Lian Tang were too young now, and the future was completely unknown.
