The sun is shining brightly and the spring breeze is blowing.
A villa on the outskirts of the city covers an area of ten acres. Even in the daytime, red lanterns surround the front and back of the courtyard. There are many guests coming and going, and the atmosphere is very lively.
A beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes on a tall building in the backyard stared at the commotion in the distance, took out a Boundary Barrier Pearl and held it in her palm, snorting coldly, "Look, all the cats and dogs are here. Even Second-rank Star Official is not satisfied with both hands. There is not a single Third-rank Star Official. Yingying married him, it is simply..."
"Now that things have come to this, it's time to talk about what to do. After all, you are a good person."
The middle-aged man next to the beautiful woman in fine clothes had a gentle temperament and complained softly.
The beautiful woman's brows became more and more resentful, "Not bad? If you ask all over Huaixi, who doesn't know what kind of virtue your uncle is..."
The middle-aged man interrupted, "Yingying also said that the embroidery was done by Yin Cha Worm, not his nature. Besides, I have seen this kid before. He is polite and thoughtful, but his temper is a bit boring. The most important thing is that he is really good to Yingying, and Yingying also likes him. That's enough."
The beautiful woman's frown did not lessen, and she sighed, "Guardian, you don't need to comfort me. Although I am dissatisfied with Gong Xiuhua, I also know that marrying him is better than marrying someone else. The eldest brother-in-law is so greedy that your Qu family will be ruined in his hands sooner or later."
The middle-aged man sighed deeply and stopped talking. Suddenly, he saw a pretty girl with a phoenix crown and a halo in the courtyard, waving in this direction.
The middle-aged man nodded with a smile, "Let's go, madam, your precious daughter has invited us to come down to accompany the guests. No matter what, her daughter is now a member of the Gong family, and we have to give her a face."
The beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes accepted Boundary Barrier Pearl and muttered, "Go ahead. Your Second-class Viscount is more than enough for this small scene. What am I going to do? I'm going back to my room to rest."
The middle-aged man said, "Okay, I'll go first. I'll pass on what Madam said to Xiaoying intact, and wait until she comes to invite you."
The beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes raised her beautiful eyes, pinched the middle-aged man's arm, and went downstairs together.
The pretty girl greeted the two of them and said cheerfully, "Old Qu, Old Yao, hurry up, hurry up, our leader has come from thousands of miles away to attend my wedding. He is a rare hero."
The girl had a fiery temper and jumped forward, dragging the two of them towards the flower hall to the west.
There was only one table in the West Flower Hall. Except for a man in a green robe and a handsome man in bright red Auspicious Garments, all the people sitting there were officials. Everyone had the star Cui Can on their chests, all Second-rank Star Official.
Seeing the pretty girl attracted middle-aged men and beautiful women in gorgeous clothes, and everyone stood up to greet her.
The pretty girl introduced everyone in turn. They were all powerful officials from Huaixi Prefecture's major yamen, and their family backgrounds were all prominent. Before finally introducing the man in green robe, the pretty girl said to the beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes who never smiled, "Old Yao, if you continue to be so sullen, I won't obey you. This is our leader, a real hero. Don't look at the table that is almost full. In fact, with my connections, I can only come to half at most. The rest is all for our leader's sake. Don't let others laugh at your daughter for being rude."
While conveying his thoughts, he introduced Qing Pao Ke Dao, "Father, mother, this is our leader, the name is Xu Yi. He is a famous figure in Huaixi. His heroic deeds are spread all over Huaixi. Now he is working in Luting. He is a close friend of Xiu Hua and I."
The visitor was none other than Xu Yi. He was really surprised when he heard that Gong Xiuhua and Qu Ying were getting married.
Speaking of which, his relationship with Gong Xiuhua was extremely complicated. He first entered this world, and not long after, he formed a rivalry with Gong Xiuhua and was hunted by him.
Later, he concealed his identity and mingled in Huaixi Prefecture officialdom, and joined Jiannan Road's Enke along with Gong Xiuhua, Qiu Dao Ming, etc. He served as the team leader and led Gong Xiuhua and others to achieve good results, and all won Official Status.
Later, Gong Xiuhua discovered that Xu Yi was his biggest enemy. But at that time, he was a man with a daughter's heart, and had a different feeling for Xu Yi. After a life and death entanglement, Xu Yi discovered the Yin Cha Worm in him and helped him get rid of the poisonous insect.
Therefore, Yin Cha Worm and the Gong family started fighting again. With the intervention of Xu Yi, Gong Xiuhua won a great victory and escaped unscathed.
Not long after, Xu Yi went to Jiannan Road. He returned to Huaixi two years ago, and Gong Xiuhua, Qiu Dao Ming and others made a special trip to come there and it was lively all day and night.
Later, everyone was busy with their own futures, and there was less contact.
This time, it was Qu Ying who conveyed the marriage news to Xu Yi. When he heard that she and Gong Xiuhua were going to get married, Xu Yi was really stunned for a long time. After thinking for a moment, he agreed to come to the appointment.
After Qiu Dao Ming and their explanations, Xu Yi realized that it was Qu Ying who was chasing Gong Xiuhua, and Gong Xiuhua had no choice but to give in half-heartedly, and achieved good things.
In addition, Xu Yi also knew that the marriage was held in a hurry because the Qu family seemed to want to betroth Qu Ying to the heir apparent of some top family.
Qu Ying's parents felt sorry for their daughter, so they took their daughter to the small town in Gong Xiuhua's hometown to hold a wedding.
Those who are here today are all friends from Gong Xiuhua.
The Gong family had been involved in the Lineage civil strife, and Lineage's power had been completely depleted. Those who came this time were all friends that Gong Xiuhua had made in the official circles. Most of them valued their status as Gong Xiuhua star officials and came to congratulate and join in the fun. They were all of low status.
Except for the friends who had attended Enke together, there really weren't any worthy heavyweight congratulators at this wedding. This was also the source of Mother Qu's dissatisfaction.
The Qu family is also Huaixi great clan. The eldest uncle of the head of the Qu family, Qu Ying, also holds the title of earl. The other brothers of Father Qu also have titles or public offices. It is really a high-profile family.
Therefore, even though he was taking refuge, Mother Qu was extremely dissatisfied with the small scene in front of him and felt that he had wronged his precious daughter.
However, after Qu Ying introduced Xu Yi's identity, Father Qu said "I have admired him for a long time". He had indeed heard of Xu Yi's name and knew that Discipline Department once had a ruthless character. It seemed that Martial Arts had also achieved quite a lot in the field, but that was all.
He secretly evaluated Xu Yi as just an outstanding young man, and did not think it was that great. Nowadays, it is a period of great changes, and many of the restrictions in the Holy Court have been opened, especially for these Aristocratic Clan wealthy families. Those who are near the water, first come first, and Yang Venerate mighty figures who were previously unattainable are no longer so remarkable.
Take the Qu family as an example. Last month, three people were successfully promoted to Yang Zun.
Even he himself knew that if nothing unexpected happened, it would not be long before he could become Yang Zun.
The person in front of him may have been amazing in the past, but due to his family background, he may never touch the threshold of Yang Zun in his life. Even if he thought so in his heart, Father Qu was still extremely polite to Xu Yi. He didn't care about his daughter's face, but only because Xu Yi could come to these star officials to make his daughter's wedding less shabby. He was extremely grateful.
