Chapter 308 Future Sister-in-law
Chapter 308 Future Sister-in-law
"Long live Young Master Song! Stop working, I'll do it." The soldier guarding the gate enthusiastically took over the burden for Song Chunlin, while another perceptive person excitedly ran to the cafeteria and asked the chef to pull the cart out.
"Young Master Song has killed two more wild boars and has dragged them to the door. You guys go out and help them."
"Are there wild boars again? Where are they? I'll go check it out."
The soldier urged him to pull the cart, and the chef happily went to pull the cart over. Halfway through, he saw soldiers dragging two big wild boars towards him. Looking at the big wild boars that weighed over a hundred pounds, the chef had already thought of several recipes in his mind.
"These two pigs are really big. They must weigh more than 300 kilograms in total."
"Chef, can I have braised pork for lunch? I'm craving it." The soldier ordered boldly, but he didn't expect to be opposed by the chef.
"You want to eat braised pork with just these two pigs? Is there enough to share? Go away, go away. With this much meat, you can only make a few stir-fried dishes. You can't make braised pork with it. It's too little."
After hearing what the chef said, the soldiers were a little disappointed, but not too surprised. After all, there were only two wild boars, and they had three thousand people. If you remove the offal and bones and such, there really wasn't much meat left. Each person could only get a few pieces at most for braised pork, and they would be gone before they could even taste the flavor.
But it was good to have some stir-fried meat. General Lin's soldiers envied them for being able to eat meat so often. When the meat was ready, he would serve it at the gate of their camp and let them watch him eat.
As soon as Song Chunlin entered the military camp, he went straight to Gu Fengyue's room. Gu Fengyue was not there, so he went to the training ground outside to look for him. Finally, he found him in a training ground doing horse riding training.
"Gu Fengyue! Here!"
Gu Fengyue sat on the horse and watched Song Chunlin running towards him from afar. A smile appeared on the corner of Gu Fengyue's mouth. Then when Song Chunlin ran in front of him, he bent down and stretched out his hand. Song Chunlin also took advantage of his strength to climb onto the horse. The two of them moved in one go, as if they had practiced it thousands of times and were very skilled.
When Gu Fengyue saw Song Chunlin coming to pick him up, he immediately knew that they were going to the Song family, so he rode his horse and took Song Chunlin back to the Song family.
The two men came in through the back door on horseback. Only Amao Song was in the backyard. Song Chunlin produced a pheasant like a magic trick, handed it to Amao Song with a smile, and asked him to help kill it so that they could have dinner tonight.
Holding the pheasant in her hand, Song A-mo said unhappily, "You, you are the only one who knows how to eat. You must have been out all day. Go wash yourself. We'll have dinner later tonight."
"Hey, good little grandpa, leave me a big chicken drumstick."
Song A-mo was speechless, but still replied: "I know, go wash up quickly, you're covered in dirt after going out, you're so dirty."
Although Song A-mo said she was disgusted, she was very efficient in killing the chicken and finished the pheasant in no time.
Pheasant meat is rather tough, so Song Amao always stews it directly into soup. Tonight’s pheasant is no exception. She stewed a whole pot of pheasant soup with lots of mushrooms. The soup tasted delicious, and after drinking the chicken soup, she felt refreshed all over.
In the next few days, Song Chunlin started a crazy hunting mode. He went to the military camp with Gu Fengyue every day. When Gu Fengyue went to the military camp, he went to the mountain not far from the military camp. On the back of the mountain, he destroyed several wild boar dens. However, he did not really kill all the wild boars. He left the last two smaller groups of wild boars, letting them recuperate and try to give birth to more piglets for him to eat next year.
After catching most of the wild boars, Song Chunlin began to target other wild animals. However, there were not as many wild animals in this mountain as he had imagined. This was probably because there were not only military camps but also human towns at the foot of the mountain. There were fewer traces of wild animals in this area. Song Chunlin did not plan to hunt some large animals. It was already incredible to hunt so many wild boars. If he caught a tiger or a bear, it would be too incredible.
However, Song Chunlin felt that he could still get a few deer, but they could not be fed to the soldiers. The embarrassment caused by eating venison last time made Song Chunlin urgently educate himself afterwards. After knowing that venison is relatively hot and eating too much can easily cause impulsiveness, Song Chunlin no longer wanted to feed venison to these soldiers.
You must be kidding. If something goes wrong with that group of guys’ food, where can they go to appeal for justice?
So he only planned to get a few and put them in the space. When he wanted to eat them in the future, he could just take them out without having to go out to hunt them. Besides, venison is hot and dry, so it might be better to eat in winter.
Just when Song Chunlin was busy hunting wild boars, Gu Fengyun brought good news.
"Brother, are you getting engaged?" Song Chunlin was so surprised that he jumped off his chair. He quickly moved the bench and sat next to Gu Fengyun, looking at Gu Fengyun with a look of "I want to hear gossip".
Gu Fengyue standing by did the same thing. The two of them were indeed a couple, as they were equally enthusiastic about listening to gossip.
Gu Fengyue curiously asked her brother three questions in a row: "Is the person you like a girl or a boy? What's her character like? How many people are there in her family? What do they do?"
Faced with a series of questions from his younger brothers, Gu Fengyun couldn't help but blushing and told his two younger brothers somewhat embarrassedly.
"That person, um, is a boy, this year, he's a little older than you, his family is in business, and you two know each other..."
Song Chunlin and Gu Fengyue looked at each other, and the answer appeared in their eyes at the same time.
"Brother, the brother you are talking about, whose family runs a business, could he be the boss of Shengji, Brother Su?"
Gu Fengyun blushed rarely, and he coughed lightly to hide his nervousness, not knowing that his constantly opening and closing fists had completely betrayed him.
It’s really strange that Gu Fengyun also had such a stressful day.
After calming down, Gu Fengyun slowly spoke: "Yes, it's Su Xiaoge for sure."
Very good, this is solid evidence, there is no way to escape it.
The two looked at each other again, and then Gu Fengyue took the lead and said, "Brother, you also know about that little brother Su's past, why did you choose him?"
Why did you choose him?
In fact, even Gu Fengyun himself couldn't figure it out. It was just that after meeting a group of ladies from wealthy families and noble men, when he saw Su Xiaoge again, a ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
If my future wife is him, it seems like a good thing.
So he first asked Young Master Su privately about his opinion. The young man was a little surprised at first, but then he agreed to Gu Fengyun's proposal without thinking too much.
Gu Fengyun also asked him to go back and discuss it with his mother. After all, it was a lifelong event and could not be handled rashly. However, Su Xiaoge rejected his suggestion.
His original words at that time were: "For the first half of my life, I was a puppet controlled by others. I couldn't even decide my name and marriage. Now I am free. I am the only one who can decide my marriage. Even if my mother is here, I will say the same thing. Lord Gu, I am willing to marry you."
Gu Fengyun was shocked by his words at that time. It was also the first time that he realized the uniqueness of this young man. He was self-reliant, strong and self-loving. Such a special person might really be able to manage the Marquis' Mansion well.
Since Gu Fengyun and that young man Su had no objection to this marriage, Gu Fengyue and Song Chunlin had no say in anything and could only silently give their blessings in their hearts.
Speaking of marriage, Gu Fengyun felt a little embarrassed. He asked Song Chunlin if there was anything special in his space. He wanted to give it to Su Xiaoge as an engagement gift.
Song Chunlin thought to himself, if this is not considered as not being moved, then what is being moved?
Look, even before they’ve even settled down, he’s already impatiently grabbing goodies for his future wife.
Song Chunlin smiled as he took out a bunch of things from the space, including diamond rings, gold and silver jewelry, and rare treasures produced in the space. They filled half of the room, dazzling the Gu brothers.
Gu Fengyun picked out a pair of rings that looked simple and elegant from the pile of rings. He took out the rings and compared them. He felt that the size was suitable, so he put the rings in his pocket.
"This diamond ring looks very special. This is it. Chunlin can keep the others. Later, Fengyue, you will accompany him to the accounting office to withdraw money. Don't refuse. This is an engagement gift for your future sister-in-law. How can I ask you to pay for it?"
Song Chunlin actually wanted to say that he didn't spend any money on this thing, but since there was money to be made, he would not be stupid enough to refuse it. He immediately thanked Gu Fengyun with a smile, and then pulled Gu Fengyue to the accounting office.
The accountant had probably been informed in advance, and as soon as Song Chunlin came, he handed him a silver note for one thousand taels.
Song Chunlin held the banknote and said happily: "Oh, big brother is really generous, there is so much money."
Gu Fengyue couldn't help but pinch his cheek: "Little money-grubber."
Song Chunlin didn't take it seriously. After putting away the banknotes, he took Gu Fengyue out of the house and went straight to Shengji Cake Shop.
Brother Su had expected the two to come, but he didn't expect them to come so soon. He has been a little restless these days, and has been worried that with Song Chunlin and Gu Fengyue's current power, would they still look down on a sister-in-law like him? What should he do if these two people firmly oppose his marriage to Gu Fengyun? Should he fight for it or give up?
He had prepared several possible endings in his mind, and none of them was good. Brother Su hadn't been able to sleep well these past few days, and it was his mother who comforted him.
"There will always be a way out. Instead of waiting anxiously, why don't you just go and ask them what they mean? You have to go through this anyway. Or maybe, you don't want to give up, right?"
Young Master Su did not answer. No one knows a son better than his mother. His mother had long seen that he was looking forward to marrying Marquis Gu. If he didn't look forward to it, he wouldn't be afraid of being rejected.
However, before he could figure out what to do, Song Chunlin and Gu Fengyue came directly to his door today.
The two men came hand in hand. At first, the waiter thought they were here to buy cakes and pastries. Song Chunlin walked around the shop but didn't buy anything. The waiter thought it was strange and went to the kitchen to call Su Xiaoge.
Young Master Su knew who it was as soon as he heard it, and took several deep breaths before coming out. But the moment he lifted the curtain, he found that the other party did not seem to give him the cold shoulder as he had imagined. Song Chunlin, needless to say, was as gentle and polite as ever. Young Master Su had only met Gu Fengyue a few times, and in his impression, this Grand Marshal had no expression on his face towards outsiders, but he had never had a cold shoulder.
"I wonder if the two of you came here because of the matter between me and Lord Gu."
The other party came straight to the point, and Gu Fengyue no longer hid anything.
"That's right, Boss Su, please talk somewhere else."
"Okay, you two, please come with me."
Song Chunlin and Gu Fengyue followed this young man Su, walked through the kitchen, the backyard, and finally came to a main room. This should be where young man Su and his mother lived.
Su's mother was not at home at this time, she might have gone out to visit someone.
Brother Su poured tea for the two of them and took out some homemade snacks from the side. His hospitality was impeccable, but they were not just here as guests.
After the food was served, Brother Su became a little nervous and felt uncomfortable sitting on the stool.
Song Chunlin saw his nervousness and smiled at him, showing friendliness.
"Boss Su, don't be nervous. We are not here to call you to task, nor do we intend to be the ones to break up the couple."
After hearing Song Chunlin's words, Su Xiaoge's nervousness immediately subsided a little, but Gu Fengyue hadn't spoken yet, so his eyes couldn't help but fall on Gu Fengyue.
Gu Fengyue bowed to him and said, "Boss Su, don't be nervous. I came here today just to ask if Miss Su is sincere in wanting to marry my brother and whether she will treat my brother wholeheartedly in the future."
Young Master Su quickly replied, "Of course I will treat Lord Gu well from beginning to end. Lord Gu is a very good person. I know that with my status, I am not worthy of Lord Gu, but since Lord Gu took the initiative to ask for my help, I will naturally seize this opportunity."
The two of them were a little uncomfortable with his frankness, and Gu Fengyue's cheeks turned slightly red because of his embarrassed words.
Brother Su seemed to realize what he had said, but since he had already said it, could he take it back?
So he just gave up and frankly admitted that he really liked Gu Fengyun.
"It may be a little cliché, but it was Lord Gu who came to my rescue and saved me from being forced to be my concubine. At that moment, Lord Gu was a hero in my heart. If I could marry such a great man in this life, I would have no regrets."
After listening to it, Song Chunlin found it to be a very clichéd story, a hero saving a beauty and giving himself to her. It was clichéd, but very true. Love at first sight always requires a chance, right?
These young men in ancient times never went out of the house, just like young ladies in the boudoir. By the way, didn't this young man Su study in an academy? Song Chunlin had thought that they would perform a Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, but it turned out that he didn't like any of them in the academy.
