Chapter 38: Discussing the Wedding Date

  "Ah, you must be Mr. and Mrs. Tang! Delighted to meet you!" Old Master Gu may hold a high position, but he is still very down-to-earth when it comes to interacting with the common people.

  Showing a warm smile, he extended his hand to shake hands with Tang Lao. Excitedly, Tang Lao's hands were shaking, and his words were not smooth. "Mr. Gu! Haha, sorry for the disrespect, it's better to meet in person than to hear about you, haha, indeed extraordinary."

  Mr. Tang's nonsense made Mrs. Tang angry and she glared at him, then smiled warmly at Mrs. Gu and said: "Mrs. Gu, you've had a hard time running around today."

  "You're welcome, it's what we should do. Actually, we didn't accompany Jun'er last time, which was really impolite."

  "Haha, how could that be? Young Master Gu is so refined and elegant, it's truly a testament to the good upbringing by Old Man Gu and Madame Gu!" Madam Tang laughed, her face creasing with wrinkles.

  Zou Xiaomi had never seen Tang Lao Ye and Mrs. Tang like this before, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised and amused. She barely managed to hold back her laughter by lowering her head and pursing her lips, but her hands were shaking with the effort.

  After exchanging pleasantries, both sides sat down to eat and chat. Mrs. Tang then promptly introduced Tang Lin Yan without missing a beat.

  Tang Lin Yan was quite good at acting, except for being arrogant in front of Zou Xiao Mi, she always had a gentle and quiet demeanor in front of outsiders, with some elegance of a noble lady.

  Mrs. Gu praised her again, saying that Tang Lao's method of teaching his daughter was good. If she had a son, she would definitely want to be closer to him.

  "Hehe, Mrs. Gu is too kind. However, although we can't be close relatives, if there's a suitable one, I can also help keep an eye out." Madam Tang hastily replied without losing her composure.

  Mrs. Gu smiled and glanced at Zou Xiaomi, then changed the subject and said: "As for this Xiaomi and Juner's marriage, I don't know what Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang have in mind?"

  As soon as the marriage of Zou Xiaomi was mentioned, Tang's wife, who had just been smiling, immediately stopped smiling and closed her mouth, with an air of not being concerned.

  Tang Lao Ye looked at his wife who didn't say a word, and could only force a smile to speak: "It's entirely up to you all, whenever you think it's suitable, that's when we'll do it."

  "Well, in that case, we won't be polite either. I discussed it with Jun'er's father and since this marriage was already arranged a long time ago, it's going to happen sooner or later. Why don't we just do it on the eighth of next month and get it over with so we can all put our minds at ease?"

  "Next month on the eighth? Today is already the twenty-eighth, there's less than ten days left, isn't that too rushed?" Madam Tang furrowed her brow and forced a smile as she asked.

  Just now, Mrs. Gu praised her daughter Wen Wei and let her see a glimmer of hope. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gu immediately said that the wedding date was set so soon, which would inevitably make her anxious and want to fight for more time for her own daughter.

  But since everything has been decided, her opposition is futile. Although she said so, Mrs. Gu still came up with many reasons, leaving her speechless.

  Mrs. Tang's abacus didn't calculate well, so her face naturally wasn't good either. When discussing the wedding arrangements later, Mrs. Tang remained silent with a gloomy face. This meal was satisfactory for everyone except for Tang Lin and her mother, who were not happy.

  Although the wedding day is approaching soon, Zou Xiaomi, the person involved, doesn't have much feeling about it.

  After leaving with Gu Zijun, Gu Zijun looked at her calm expression and couldn't help but ask curiously: "We're getting married so soon, aren't you nervous?" The new address has been changed to
