1818 The princess temple....
In the end, Gu Xin accepted the fact that Shi Yingying, the tofu girl, was already married. This was the sister-in-law that she had high hopes for!
Back then, she had gone to town to buy tofu pudding to eat. That little girl Yingying was fair and clean, and she had a sweet smile. She had always been the object of her envy. There was no other reason. At that time, she was a little dark and thin, so she naturally thought that fair and chubby girls of the same age were good-looking.
Now that she was a few years older and had stayed in the West for more than a year, she wasn’t as fair as she was in kun city. However, she didn’t care about it as much.
When she was young, all she wanted was to eat and wear, to keep her parents and sister well-treated her, and her wish had been fulfilled. Now, her thoughts were completely different from when she was young.
Princess Sarlin didn’t understand what the two sisters were talking about. She looked anxious, but she still obediently listened to their conversation before asking.
Seeing that she was so obedient, Gu Xin explained to Princess Sarlin and smiled, ” little Yanyan, you have a chance now. Marrying en Zi is the closest thing to me.
Gu Nian looked at Gu Xin speechlessly. Indeed, even with the influence of the three of them, this girl still matured early. It was normal for her to fall in love with someone when she was 12 or 13 years old. She also felt that it was normal for her to get married when she was 14 or 15 years old.
Forget it, if she wanted to think this way, then so be it. Anyway, she still had to wait two years before she could get married.
……
It was already the end of April when they arrived at the princess’s temple.
Cheng Huaiyu’s statue was almost completed in the past two months, but there were still many things to be completed.
At first, when Gu shouxin and the others passed by goz, they had left some craftsmen here. Even though they had not signed the agreement at that time, Gu shouxin had asked the craftsmen to start work.
Cheng huaijin carried the urn of ashes and had someone carry Peng mu, who had been turned into a human swine, into the ancestral hall that had already taken shape.
For some reason, Peng mu, who had always been quiet, began to shake his head frantically when he was carried in. His mouth made ” ah ah ah ” sounds. Cheng huaijin didn’t care so much, only looking at the carved stone statue.
Gu Xin and Gu yingxue followed behind Cheng huaijin and also looked at the stone statue.
Gu Xin did not know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the stone statue was smiling at them. It was just like the time when she first arrived in kun city, Xiao Yu was smiling at her at the city gate.
Gu Xin, who had always told herself not to think about Xiao Yu, shed tears again after more than half a year. The scenes of her time with Xiao Yu resurfaced. She was heartbroken and wanted to ask the heavens why they didn’t keep Xiao Yu and why they let her leave.
Gu yingxue’s face was covered in tears.
Cheng huaijin didn’t cry. He only asked softly in his heart, ” Little sister, are you willing? Are you willing to be the princess of the great Zhou and be worshipped by the people of the East and West? Little sister, can I forgive the great Zhou?
A gentle breeze blew past, caressing Cheng huaijin’s face as if to say, ” brother, let it go, let it go.
Cheng huaijin raised his hand and touched his cheek. A tear rolled down from the corner of his eye.
Alright, I forgive great Zhou. I will raise Brother Yun well.
The three of them bowed and stood to the side.
Next, it was Gu shouxin’s turn to bring the children of the Gu family in. Only the main body of the princess’s temple had been built, and they could not offer incense yet, so everyone bowed.
Then, the Peng family’s Army, led by Peng ze and Gu Hui, stood inside and outside the ancestral hall and bowed to the stone statue.
After them were the princesses and princes from the West, and finally, the merchants from the West, represented by yingshi Yuding. This was the first time people from the East and West paid their respects to the princess in this way.
