Chapter 70: Making a Fuss on the Wedding Day

  "Of course it's lively, today is a grand day for our Chai family!" The servant said with a smile.

  "What a wonderful day? Is someone getting married?! " Zhu Rong's eyes lit up instantly, "I've never seen how people in the Central Plains get married before!"

  As he spoke, the inquisitive head peeked into the mansion with great interest.

  "Hey, hey, today there are quite a few big shots here, don't you dare to mess around." The servant hastily stopped Zhu Rong's actions.

  It's precisely because of the same reason that Guo Jia didn't tell Zhu Rong about his upcoming wedding. If he had spoken up, it would have been out of politeness and he would have had to invite him!

  Although Guo Jia himself did not have any discriminatory thoughts towards the "barbarians", he thought this way, but it doesn't mean others would think the same. Don't forget, Guo Jia is a person who loves to save face, or else he wouldn't have deliberately asked for an imperial edict to make a show of it.

  And if he invites Zhu Rong, a wild girl, to attend the wedding, others will see it and lose face for him, Guo Jia.

  So Guo Jianing was willing to ask this wild girl out for a meal alone after the matter, and he didn't even want to invite her to attend this wedding.

  Moreover, in Guo Jia's eyes, although he got to know Ye Lian through Wild Beauty, they were not familiar with each other at all, and didn't even know each other's names. It was like going to a store every day to buy vegetables, chatting with the owner from time to time, but would you specially invite them to your wedding? At most, after getting married, you might casually mention it and say something like "Oh, you're already married? Congratulations." That's all.

  Guo Jia could have informed Zhu Rong in advance that he didn't need to come and deliver flowers today, but let's not mention Guo Jia's plan to make up for Diaochan's flowers. Just from Cai Wenji's side, they had been sending flowers every day in the past few days, so it was even more impossible for them to be absent on the wedding day!

  So, Guo Jia thought that even if this wild girl found out about the wedding at the last minute, she would only have some resentment, and he could come down and find an opportunity to apologize and make amends. At least today's flowers were essential!

  "Oh, then go and call out Guo Jia, I'll have him tell me what it's like to be a matchmaker in the Central Plains." Zhu Rong said.

  "Girl, just give me the flower and that's it. The young master is very busy right now." said the servant.

  "What's a maternal uncle?" Zhu Rong scratched her head, not paying much attention to it for the time being. After all, there were many things in Zhongyuan that she didn't understand. She said immediately, "Then I'll wait for him outside. He must be going to the Situ Mansion to deliver flowers, right?"

  Having heard this, the servant couldn't help but say directly

  "It seems the young lady doesn't know, today is the day of great joy for my family's young master and miss, so he won't have any free time all day. You can just hand over the flowers to me, I'll help you bring them in."

  Zhurong's heart skipped a beat, and the flowers in his hand almost fell to the ground.

  "Is it Lord Guo Jia?"

  Although she still didn't understand what "Gūyé" meant as a title, she could hear clearly that this Gūyé was referring to Guo Jia!

  "That's right." The servant nodded in response.

  "No!" Zhurong shook her head, her face filled with an expression of disbelief. At this moment, even she didn't know what kind of feeling she had. If someone said she liked Guo Jia, Zhurong herself wouldn't believe it, at least not before now when she never had such thoughts. But now that she heard the news about Guo Jia getting married, Zhurong couldn't accept it!

  "Guo Jia is getting married?! How can he get married?! He's never told me about his plans to get married!!" Zhu Rong exclaimed loudly.

  "Miss, don't get agitated, I think it's possible that Master has been too busy lately and forgot to inform you." The servant hastily advised from the side, but in his heart he didn't think so: What status do you have, after all, you're just a flower-delivering refugee, why would they need to tell you?

  "I don't believe it! Where's Guo Jia? I want to find him and ask him clearly! I want to find him and ask him clearly!" Zhu Rong said, rushing directly into the government office.

  "Hey, girl..." The servant hastily blocked her way.

  "Don't stop me!" These small characters can't stop the female Tarzan, Zhu Rong directly rushed into the Cai Mansion and loudly shouted.

  "Guo Jia! Guo Jia! Come out for me!"

  "Who is this?! Daring to cause trouble at my brother's wedding!" Guo Yuan immediately jumped out.

  However, Guo Jia had already recognized the voice of the newcomer and hastily stopped Guo Yuan.

  "Adopted son, don't be reckless!"

  Guo Jia and others followed Guo Yuan out from inside, Ming Er hurriedly explained the situation of Zhu Rong to Cai Wenji, lest Cai Yan would have wild thoughts.

  Seeing Guo Jia wearing a red outfit that was completely different from everyone else's, Zhu Rong's whole body trembled.

  "Guo Jia, you're really getting married?!"

  "Miss, I was really busy the past few days and forgot to invite you. Since you're already here, why don't we sit down together and have a cup of wedding wine? It's also a way for me to apologize to you." Guo Jia said politely, he didn't think that things would actually escalate like this, this wild girl really can't be reasoned with normally.

  It was already destined that today would be a day of great events, and the ancients called dusk an auspicious time, so it's usually set at that time to worship the hall. In other words, this wedding may not have been able to proceed smoothly from the beginning. As a result, He Jin's matter had not yet arrived, but now another "small episode" of a noisy wedding has been stirred up!

  "How can you get married? You haven't even told me about it, I haven't even agreed to it..." Zhu Rong said with a wronged expression as he looked at Guo Jia.

  As soon as this was said, everyone's eyelids jumped on the spot. It turns out there is an affair! This Guo Jia is too fond of messing around! According to rumors, Guo Jia and Cai Yan had an affair before they were forced to get married, and it's also said that he has been constantly pursuing a girl from the Wang Yun's household in the imperial court, who would have thought that now there's another episode!

  While recalling these rumors, many people are secretly admiring Guo Jia's unique taste.

  "Cough, miss, I think there might be some misunderstanding here?" Guo Jia said with an embarrassed face. Clearly nothing had happened, so how did it end up like this? This rumor-spreading ability is really terrifying!

  Zhurong completely didn't understand what Guo Jia was saying, lowered her head and looked at the fresh flowers in her hand, and said softly.

  "I climb the mountain every day to pick flowers for you, but these days the flowers are getting fewer and farther between. I know you don't like small yellow flowers, you like beautiful ones... Sometimes I have to cross several mountains to find a pretty one, and in order to help you find flowers, I often don't even have time to eat, and frequently go hungry... Several times, in order to protect the flowers I've worked so hard to pick, I've been injured by wild beasts... Once, I almost fell off a cliff..."

  As she spoke, Zhu Rong's tears fell, feeling more wronged than ever before.

  "I'm so silly, I knew you picked the flowers to give to someone else, but you said that's what people from Zhongyuan do - they give their best to others... I don't get it, you people from Zhongyuan are so weird, and now I've become weird too. Clearly wanting to tell you that we can't pick any more flowers, but couldn't bring myself to say it; clearly starving after not catching anything to eat, but didn't come to ask you for money... Wow~~~~~~"
