God predicts a real daughter, and all the wealthy families kneel down and call their ancestors
Chapter 491 Preparing for Marriage
When talking about the wedding, Mr. Gu smiled.
"We'll hold the ceremony after we settle down after the New Year, and you'll have to show up and show your support then."
The person who came to see Mr. Gu today was his cousin, whose surname was Zhou.
Mr. Zhou is only two years older than Mr. Gu, and they were very good friends when they were young.
Marriages between wealthy families are driven by interests, and there will be no wedding before the couple officially become a community of interests.
Lu Zhizhi and Gu Yanzhou's wedding was considered quick among wealthy families.
Three years is normal, and five years is not uncommon.
Besides, when wealthy families marry, all they care about is the pomp and ceremony.
The bride's wedding dress must be handmade and it takes a year and a half to make one.
The same goes for all kinds of jewelry.
There will be people who monitor the auction, buy some gemstones, design, polish and make them into jewelry.
Everything is time-consuming.
Like them, getting engaged in the middle of the year and holding their wedding at the beginning of the next year, it is inevitable that people will think of certain things.
Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Why so soon? Is there good news?"
The Gu family's population was dwindling, and all the other branches noticed it.
Some people wish that the Gu family would be extinct so that they can divide up all the property.
But now that these properties have been dispersed and distributed to each household, they are no longer just watching the fun, and are also somewhat sincere when asking questions.
A look of sadness appeared on Mr. Gu's face.
"No."
"The Lu family has strict family education, and Yan Zhou is not that kind of person."
"Zhizhi is also very open-minded. He has no requirements on the venue of the ceremony, the clothes to wear, the jewelry, etc."
"The sooner you do it, the easier it will be for you to have nothing to worry about."
Mr. Gu spoke in a meaningful way, and when Mr. Zhou heard the meaning in his tone, he also suddenly became emotional.
The friendship that one has grown up with is always stronger than that of others, and Mr. Zhou speaks directly.
"You're right. The sooner you get it done, the better."
"We are old, and apart from saving enough money for our children to have enough food and clothing, we can't do much else."
"If you can't help, at least don't hold us back."
"My body...ah...I won't say any more..."
Old Master Gu sighed softly. They both had the same heart.
According to the rules, if one dies, his grandchildren must observe mourning for at least three years.
Some families cannot wait for three years due to various reasons, so they have to wait at least for one year.
Even so, people will still talk about you behind your back.
Zhizhi is still young, so it doesn't matter if he waits a few more years, but Yanzhou can't wait any longer.
Besides, he wanted to see his great-grandson before closing his eyes, and didn't want to go down with regrets.
Thinking of this, Mr. Gu carefully looked at his cousin sitting next to him.
He did seem to be a lot more haggard and thinner.
"Hasn't your health always been better than mine? Do you need me to introduce you to a health doctor?"
Mr. Zhou waved his hand.
"It's not the health care doctor's business!"
"A while ago, when I was worshipping my ancestors during the Chinese New Year, I don't know what happened, but my legs just stopped working and I fell to the ground."
"The leg is fine, but the shoulder hit the altar."
"The altar was knocked over, the offerings were shattered all over the floor, and my right shoulder started to hurt day and night."
"I went to the hospital for a checkup, but they didn't find anything wrong."
"Alas... I am just old and useless."
When Mr. Gu heard that the hospital couldn't diagnose the disease, a string in his head suddenly tightened.
He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't.
After seeing off Mr. Zhou, I saw Gu Yanzhou and Lu Zhizhi sitting on the sofa chatting.
He had just seen that Mr. Zhou was not in good health, and he felt a little depressed.
"Zhizhi, have dinner here before going home."
Lu Zhizhi flipped through the booklet in his hand, looked up and said "OK".
Because she was in a hurry to get married, she couldn't customize the jewelry, so she chose from the jewelry that Gu Yanzhou had bought over the years.
Lu Zhizhi looked at the sets of jewel jewelry, with main diamonds as big as quail eggs, which were very dazzling.
She was a little resistant to the thought of wearing these things on her body.
Too fancy and grand.
Lu Zhizhi put the booklet away and placed it on the table.
"Can't we just buy some?"
"I heard from the wedding planner the other day that the jewelry you bought has collection value and will appreciate as the market changes. If someone wears it, it will be worthless."
Gu Yanzhou stuffed the booklet back into Lu Zhizhi's arms and spoke patiently.
"We got married in a hurry, so there's definitely no time to customize the jewelry."
"For the finished products you see on the market, the designs are sent to the ladies of the noble families for selection at the beginning of the design process. The ones that can be sold on the market are the ones that have been picked out by others."
Gu Yanzhou scratched Lu Zhizhi's nose.
"How could I let you use what others have left over?"
Lu Zhizhi opened the booklet again and continued to select.
After choosing for a while, the two of them looked up at each other at the same time as if they had telepathy, and then turned their heads to Mr. Gu.
This was not the first time that Lu Zhizhi came to the Gu family to discuss the wedding. Every time, Grandpa Gu would be there to help with the selection with a smile on his face.
When it is difficult to make a decision, Mr. Gu always speaks generously.
"Zhizhi, if you don't like these, we can buy new ones. Grandpa has private money, so we don't need Yanzhou's money. Grandpa will buy them and give them to you."
But at this moment, Mr. Gu said nothing and looked out the window.
Lu Zhizhi tugged at Gu Yanzhou's hand and asked in a low voice.
"What's wrong with Grandpa? He seems a little...sad?"
Lu Zhizhi put down the book in his hand and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with Gu Yanzhou.
"Grandpa, you seem to be worried."
Mr. Gu sighed heavily.
"I just saw your great uncle. He seemed to be feeling unwell. The doctor couldn't tell what was wrong with him."
Lu Zhi had been following Gu Yanzhou's lead in handling company affairs for a while, and his mind had become much more flexible than before.
It only took her a moment to think about it and she knew what Mr. Gu meant.
For wealthy families like this, there is no shortage of medical resources. Unless one has a terminal illness, there is almost no disease that cannot be cured.
For this kind of disease where the cause cannot be found, most people would consider inviting a Taoist priest to come to the house to take a look.
But not everyone believes this.
It just so happened that Mr. Gu believed in it, and there happened to be a mysterious master in his family.
Lu Zhizhi knew what Mr. Gu was thinking.
Because I once told him that I wanted to ask her to treat someone's illness, and I had very strict requirements.
But most of the requests she made last time were just spoken in anger, mainly because she didn't want to be involved with the Gu family anymore.
Now that they were getting married, how could she refuse such a small favor?
Lu Zhizhi took the initiative to speak.
"Grandpa, do you think that Uncle Grandpa is not really sick, but is possessed by an evil spirit?"
Mr. Gu looked embarrassed.
"Zhizhi, grandpa doesn't want you to help me. Grandpa knows you have your difficulties."
"I'm just feeling sentimental. We are all old and don't know how many years we have left to live."
"But seeing you get married, grandpa can finally rest in peace."
Even though Lu Zhizhi offered to help, Mr. Gu never said he needed help.
After the meal, Lu Zhizhi took the initiative to propose.
"Gu Yanzhou, take me to visit your uncle's house."
