Su Rou took the letter and glanced at it.

She thought Gong Yu had sent some information, and everything written in the letter was about his thoughts for her.

Su Rou found it boring and handed the letter to Gong Yuanzhi.

Gong Yuanzhi looked down and his old face turned red.

"What are you showing me? Is this just some little love affair between you two?"

Su Rou said, "Write a letter of similar quality and send it back, just asking him not to die at the border."

Gong Yuanzhi said, "You..."

Su Rou slumped in the armchair, staring at the ceiling with a dull look in her eyes.

Gong Yuanzhi said, "Forget it, let's go out and buy New Year's goods first."

Su Chi didn't go, so when Su Rou followed Gong Yuanzhi and Madam Gong to the street, she met Yuan Wen and Shang Jiu.

Shang Jiu's leg has healed. He stands next to Yuan Wen like an old hen protecting her chicks.

Yuan Wen let go of Shang Jiu's arm and stood directly beside Su Rou.

"Goudan girl."

Gong Yuanzhi glanced sideways and asked, "Do you use this name outside?"

Su Rou lowered her voice and said, "It sounds nice, right?"

Gong Yuanzhi gave a thumbs-up reluctantly, "It sounds good."

Yuan Wen said, "I just bought some rouge and powder. You can take some."

Su Rou took Yuan Wen's shoulder and said, "No, I don't need those things. But you came out with Lord Shang today, but are you planning to celebrate the New Year with Lord Shang?"

Yuan Wen hurriedly explained, "Shang Jiu and I..."

Yuan Wen wanted to explain, but Su Rou didn't want to listen at all.

"Oh, I'm so envious. I don't even have anyone to spend the New Year with me."

Su Rou was being sarcastic, and Yuan Wen could hear it.

Yuan Wen said, "Then take some lip balm. Women always want to dress up beautifully."

Yuan Wen took out two exquisite and beautiful small boxes from the servants following Shang Jiu and handed them to Su Rou.

Su Rou looked at the two exquisite boxes in her hands and said, "I... can't use them."

Yuan Wen said, "It's okay, just keep it in reserve, it will come in handy eventually."

Su Rou pursed her lips and put away the two boxes of lip balm.

Madam Gong suddenly seemed to see something and walked forward.

Gong Yuanzhi was afraid that Madam Gong would get lost, so he gave Su Rou a gold bar.

A cool touch came from the palm of my hand.

Gong Yuanzhi said, "Pocket money, I'm afraid she'll get lost and won't be able to take care of you, so she'll play on the street for a while and then go back."

Gong Yuanzhi treated her as a child after all. After giving her the gold bar, he took his guards to chase the Kung Fu man.

Su Rou looked down at the gold bar in her hand. One such bar was equivalent to several years’ income for an ordinary person.

Gong Yuanzhi is really generous.

Yuan Wen took her arm and said, "I'm going to a restaurant with Shang Jiu in a while. Will you come with us?"

Su Rou said, "Okay."

Shang Jiu, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up. "Are you really Gong Yu's new wife?"

Shang Jiu frowned and looked her over and over.

Su Rou said, "Don't you think so?"

Shang Jiu said, "It's Gong Yu's favorite flavor. Before this, he had always been obsessed with Su Rou, the eldest daughter of the Su family, and His Majesty was even angry with him because of this."

Su Rou gave a wicked smile, "It wasn't Gong Yu who chose me, but I chose Gong Yu."

"He's never had much vision."

Although she knew that Shang Jiu was scolding Gong Yu, she always felt as if she was being scolded as well.

She is the eldest daughter of the Su family, and she is now Gong Yu's wife.

Su Rou retorted, "I think Yuan Wen is a bit short-sighted."

"you."

"What am I?"

Yuan Wen quickly stood between them and said, "Alright, alright, stop arguing. Every time you two meet, it's like a firecracker."

Su Rou said, "He looks like a firecracker."

"Don't think I don't dare to fight with a woman."

"You can't even beat my third brother, and you still dare to touch me? I'll break both of your legs."

Neither of them would forgive the other.

Yuan Wen was trapped in the middle and was sweating profusely.

"No...Rou...Miss Goudan, don't bother with him."

Yuan Wen pushed Shang Jiu away and lectured him, "If you do this again, I will go back and I won't celebrate the New Year with you."

Shang Jiu said, "Then... then I won't argue with her anymore. Don't be angry."

Yuan Wen snorted coldly, and Shang Jiu had a firm grasp on his little appearance.

Su Rou said, "Miss Yuan, take him with you. He will have to pay for our shopping and sightseeing."

"I'm paying Yuan Wen, not you. There's a book called Gong Yu who'll come over and pay for it for you."

This person knew very well that Gong Yu would never come back.

Su Rou said, "I can afford it myself, and Yuan Wen can afford it too. We're only taking you with us because you like Yuan Wen. So why don't we both take you with us?"

"You can't! You must take me with you. You promised to spend the New Year with me."

I used to think Shang Jiu was quite annoying, but now I find it quite interesting to tease him.

Su Rou said, "Then just pay honestly."

Yuan Wen nodded vigorously, "That's right."

She has already given Shang Jiu a way out. If he doesn't want to come down, there is no need to ask for it again.

"Pay it if you want. Don't forget your promise to spend New Year's Eve with me."

Yuan Wen waved his hand, "I know."

It was a busy day today, and when the three of them went to the restaurant, it was packed.

"Are you three going to eat? You'll have to wait a while. There are no seats available right now."

Yuan Wen said, "Why don't we go to the Yuan family's restaurant? It's not as good as here, but the food is still good."

Su Rou said, "It's snowing outside, it's freezing, and it's troublesome to change clothes all the time, so let's just stay here."

As she spoke, Su Rou had already sat down at a table.

The person who was eating with his head down looked up at Su Rou, then at Yuan Wen and Shang Jiu, with an expression as if saying that they were crazy.

Su Rou felt a little cold after breaking her foot. Her toes were all frozen from walking all the way.

I never suffered from the cold in the past, but this year it is much colder than ever before.

In a short while, the streets outside were buried in heavy snow.

The three of them waited for a while before a seat became available.

In fact, Su Rou didn’t really want to bring Shang Jiu with her. It was really inconvenient for her to eat with a mask on.

The stove was burning nearby, and the tea they ordered was bubbling with white smoke.

Su Rou pulled a chicken leg and heard Shang Jiu's voice in her ears, "You wear a mask while eating? Your face is too ugly to be seen."

Su Rou, with meat in her mouth, said vaguely, "What do you care?"

Shang Jiu had always been curious about her mask, so it wasn't surprising that she said that now.

Su Rou took a sip of tea and lowered her head to pick up some food from the table. "When are you two going to worship heaven and earth?"

Yuan Wen's cheeks were as red as a monkey's butt, "It's still early for both of us. In fact, I just want to wait for you to come back before I pay my respects."

Shang Jiu, who was sitting next to Yuan Wen, paused for a moment with his chopsticks in his hand.

"Will you marry me?!" From Shang Jiu's tone, it seemed as if there was surprise mixed with astonishment.

Yuan Wen said, "Didn't I tell you that when my friend comes back, we can talk about getting married."

Shang Jiu happily threw away his chopsticks and embraced Yuan Wen.

"I thought you were just trying to delay marrying me."

During the time Yuan Wen was in Shang Mansion, he saw all the kindness Shang Jiu showed him.

Su Rou took a bite of meat and said, "Let's do it soon."

Just this one sentence made Shang Jiu think that she was jealous.

"The Gong family doesn't even give you proper etiquette. It seems Gong Yu doesn't treat you well either."

Su Rou snorted coldly, "Don't be so proud. It's only because Gong Yu is not here, otherwise he would have outshone you."

Shang Jiu said, "If she is willing to marry me, then I will definitely give her the best in the world."

When he said this, Su Rou and Yuan Wen, who were eating meat, laughed out loud.

How could the Yuan family’s Jade Shop Caravan not have the best things in the world?

It's good that Shang Jiu has this intention, but it seems like he doesn't use his brain much.

The two people's ridicule made Shang Jiu feel very confused.

"What are you laughing at?"

Su Rou waved the hand holding the chopsticks. "It's nothing. I was in a bad mood today, but you made me feel better. I feel good. As long as you have that kind of heart for Yuan Wen, that's all that matters."

Shang Jiu frowned and stared at Su Rou with dissatisfaction. It was okay for Yuan Wen to laugh at him, but why did Li Goudan laugh at him?

Shang Jiu rested his chin on one arm and said, "Speaking of which, you have to hold on to your position. Considering how favored Gong Yu is in front of His Majesty, it won't be a problem to give him one or two women. Don't let your position as a wife suddenly become a concubine of the second or third wife."

Su Rou didn't look up and didn't take Shang Jiu's words to heart at all.

"Thank you, you don't need to meddle in my business. The person I want to marry may not be the best, but I can only be the main wife."

What's more, would that old guy dare to force it on Gong Yu?
