The fake daughter has too much property to inherit!

Chapter 137 Talking about Marriage

Both the Nan and Gu families took their seats in the elegantly decorated room.

As the oldest elders in the room, Mrs. Nan Shen Shuya and Mrs. Gu Shi Wanjun sat in the middle.

On the left side of Old Lady Nan are Nan Yanhua, Ye Zhi, Nan Sheng, Nan Chu, Nan You and Nan Ci.

On the right side of Old Lady Gu were Gu Yunkuo, Xia Lin, Gu Beijue and Xia Yaxin.

Xia Lin is not Gu Beijue's mother, but the wife that Gu Yunkuo married later. Xia Yaxin has no blood relationship with the Gu family and is the daughter of Xia Lin's ex-husband.

Apart from her daughter Gu Ran's family, Mrs. Gu only has her son and grandson around her, so she is anxious to arrange a marriage for Gu Beijue.

At the dinner table, the elders were greeting each other and chatting animatedly, while the grandchildren were sitting quietly by the side.

Nanyou sat obediently between her elder and second brothers, but her eyes could not hide her curiosity.

Old Lady Gu, who was talking to Old Lady Nan, looked at the difference in the number of people on both sides and sighed deeply.

"Shu Ya, I really envy you. You have grandchildren, and two pairs at that. Unlike you, I only have one grandson."

As soon as Grandma Gu said this, Nan You saw that the smile on Aunt Xia's face froze, and there was also a very low and inaudible sneer next to her second brother.

Are Aunt Xia and her daughter expressing their dissatisfaction with Grandma Gu’s words?

Xia Yaxin's situation is a little similar to hers...

But she has her biological mother by her side.

Although Nanyou thinks Ye's mother is a good person, they love each other.

But deep down in her heart, Nanyou also wanted to know what her biological mother looked like...

While Nan You was in a daze, Old Madam Nan withdrew her disgusted gaze from her, smiled calmly, and her voice was meaningful.

"There's nothing to envy. No matter how many children you have, as long as they are filial and obedient, you will be content."

Gu Beijue and his family thought it was just an ordinary polite remark.

But the Yeats family knew the stinging meaning of the words as soon as they heard them.

However, they kept smiling politely, as if they could not hear the hidden meaning of the words.

Nan You had just come back to her senses from her daze and did not hear clearly what Old Lady Nan said that was very targeted.

Old Mrs. Gu nodded, agreeing very much with what Old Mrs. Nan said, and slowly introduced the topic of tonight.

"At our age, we don't expect too much. We just hope Beijue can give me a great-grandson as soon as possible. I'll be satisfied even if I close my eyes."

Old Madam Nan understood the implication of her words, but did not answer directly immediately. Instead, she said leisurely, "I don't know why you are so anxious. Nan Chu is more than a year older than Bei Jue, and he still has no place to go. You can still wait for a few more years."

"Why not? You have these grandchildren, daughters and granddaughters to look after, so you don't have to worry about not having great-grandchildren."

Old Mrs. Gu looked worried, "I'm counting on a grandson and a granddaughter, but each one is more annoying than the other.

One was like a gourd with its mouth sawed off, and the other, whenever urged on, ran faster than a rabbit.

Look, you haven't come to see me for half a month. I don't know what you're busy with."

Nan Sheng raised the corners of her mouth slightly as she looked at the gourd with a sawed-off mouth opposite her. Even though she was the one being despised, she remained expressionless.

Gu Beijue felt the gaze from the opposite side and looked up, but Nan Sheng had already looked away.

However, Gu Beijue could still see the faint smile at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes moved slightly.

The other younger generations were all listening attentively to the two elders "complaining" to each other, but one of them stood out and asked curiously:

"Is Grandma Gu talking about Brother Xie Yang?"

Nan You, who had been daydreaming, immediately pricked up her ears and straightened up when she heard the name Xie Yang, wanting to listen to them talking about Xie Yang.

Old Madam Gu looked at her and asked curiously, "Yeah, are Xiao Ci and Xie Yang that kid very familiar with each other?"

"Yes, Grandma Gu, Xie Yang and I have a small collaboration." Nan Ci touched his head a little embarrassedly and continued, "I used to have dinner with Brother Xie Yang often a while ago, but I haven't seen him much recently."

"It seems that this kid is not deliberately avoiding me." Old Madam Gu sighed, "My grandson is even more disobedient than Bei Jue. I don't know when a girl will come to take care of him."

After hearing what Grandma Gu said, Nanyou put her hand over her mouth which was wide open in surprise.

Xie Yang is actually Grandma Gu’s grandson!

Nan You looked at Old Lady Gu with her round almond-shaped eyes, and suddenly found that Xie Yang's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to hers.

Moreover, Gu Beijue is Xie Yang's cousin, or cousin.

What if she ends up with Xie Yang and Sheng Sheng gets engaged to Gu Beijue?

Aren't she and Shengsheng...

When Nanyou thought of that scene, her ears suddenly felt hot.

Nan You hurriedly touched her ears. Just as she came back to reality, she heard Nan Ci say carelessly, "Grandma Gu, don't worry. I heard from Brother Ming Xiao that Brother Xie hasn't been having dinner with us recently because he's gone to deal with some important life issues."

Mrs. Gu asked in disbelief, "Xie Yang went to deal with the most important thing in life? Xiao Ci, do you know what the most important thing in life is?"

Nan Ci, who was clueless, said directly, "He has a crush on a girl and is pursuing her!"

As soon as Nan Ci finished speaking, everyone in the room had different expressions.

Nanyou's ears were burning again, and she felt excited and happy. Although she lowered her head and tried her best to control her expression, there was a smile in her eyes and on the corners of her mouth.

Xie Yang has been with her frequently recently. He really likes her!

Nan Chu, who saw all the changes in Nan You's expression, pursed his lips tightly.

Gu Beijue was surprised when he noticed the expressions of Nan Chu and Nan You who were sitting across from him. Thinking back to the last time they had dinner together, Nan Chu had shown him a cold expression. He immediately understood everything.

Yeats's thoughts were similar to Nanyou's.

What if in the future Youyou and Xie Yang, Shengsheng and Gu Beijue...

Ye Zhi got a headache just thinking about it.

Old Mrs. Gu's face was full of ecstasy, while the others were surprised and curious.

........................

Since the topic of tonight is Nan Sheng and Gu Beijue's engagement, other topics will be skipped after just mentioning them briefly.

"Shuya, it's almost time for us to talk about the marriage of our two children." Old Mrs. Gu began to formally introduce the topic.

"I still say the same thing, I have no objection to the engagement, as for the rest, you should talk to Shengsheng and him." Shen Shuya spoke in a calm voice, pointing her chin at Ye Zhinan and Yanhua.

What followed was a discussion between the two families, and they agreed on most things, but there was a disagreement on the timing of the engagement.

Mrs. Gu hoped to get engaged by the end of the year, but Yeats felt that the end of the year was too soon.

In the end, they simply asked Nan Sheng and Gu Beijue for their opinions.

"Shengsheng, Beijue, when do you two think is a good time?"

Gu Beijue looked at Nan Sheng with a slightly relieved expression, "I'm fine with it. Miss Nan Sheng has the final say."

According to Nan Sheng's previous idea, it would be best to get the marriage certificate tomorrow, but she negotiated with the system last night.

[As long as the host is engaged, the mission time limit will be extended by one year.]

So Nan Sheng, who still had more than two years left, felt that it was quite ample time and chose a compromise time.

"Grandma, Grandma Gu, Mom...I want to get engaged after the New Year, is that okay?"

Since this time was chosen by Nan Sheng herself, no one else had any objection and set the engagement date after the Spring Festival.

The two families had almost finished their discussion, and since it was getting late, they dispersed and went home.

Even after returning home and sitting on the sofa, Nanyou was still a little drowsy and asked questions in a daze.

"Is Mr. Gu Shengsheng's fiancé from now on?"
