Capítulo 1601: Chapter 1604: Feigning Illness
He clutched his own arm and slamd it to the ground.
Shunzi quickly let go of him, anxiously asking, “What’s wrong, Dad? Are you okay?”
“No, nothing!” Gu Wu said, “These years of being a beggar have taken a toll on my body. I’m full of ailnts, afraid that my old illness has acted up again.”
“An illness?” Gu Wu was startled and hurriedly said, “I’ll take you to see a doctor, you can’t delay an illness.”
With that, he was about to pull him.
Gu Wu hurriedly cried out in pain a few more tis. Shunzi didn’t know where he had touched or where Gu Wu was hurting, so he had to let go of his hand again without touching him.
Gu Wu grimaced in pain and said, “Don’t, don’t touch , I can’t be touched. Ouch, it’s killing , Shunzi, once your father’s ailnt acts up, he can’t walk anymore. Hurry and go get a doctor for , I’ll wait for you right here.”
Shunzi, simple-minded and convinced by Gu Wu’s earnest painful expression, got up and ran towards the distance, still shouting, “Dad, you must wait for , I’ll be back soon.”
Wait, wait for that naive fool!
Seeing Shunzi had gone far, Gu Wu got up and ran towards the Zhang Residence.
Shunzi looked back and was furious.
Being fooled just like that, now getting him out again would be harder than reaching the sky.
Feeling extrely frustrated, Shunzi was thinking about how to explain this to Erya when Sanbao ca looking for him.
“Brother-in-law, you really are here, I’ve been looking for you for quite a while.”
“Sanbao?” Shunzi said in surprise, “Why are you here? Did your sister send you?”
Thinking of how Erya couldn’t bear to stay angry after all, his mood improved a bit.
Sanbao nodded while panting and said, “Yes, my sister asked to call you back.”
Shunzi was delighted and said, “She’s not angry anymore?”
Sanbao shook his head and said, “Yes, she’s not angry anymore. Aunt Xiang Chun, the maid of the eldest sister, ca and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly. Let’s walk and talk as we go.”
anwhile, Zhang Shiyu quietly followed Gu Wu, eavesdropping on their conversation, but didn’t get any useful information, so she left disappointed.

The Lin Family was anxious about the union of their young master and young lady. After Lin Shenxing and the Tao Family girl’s marriage was arranged well, they consulted soone to choose an auspicious date soon.
Marrying within less than a month of knowing each other, this could be considered a flash marriage.
Gu Youyou selected so valuable gifts, mainly new glasswork products from Xiguang Residence, to send to them.
In this era, the various glass products from Xiguang Residence were a fashion, referred to as glazed items by them.
The Old Madam Lin held Gu Youyou’s hand and said, “I thought you’d be too busy to co, but here you are.”
Gu Youyou arrived quite late, just in ti.
But she still asked, “I didn’t miss the timing, did I?”
The Old Madam Lin said, “No, no, it’ll start soon. I’m also just heading there now.”
The weddings of ancient tis were grand and complex, especially with families like Lin and Tao marrying into each other. The Tao Family was a wealthy family with so prestige, so they were quite particular. The Lin Family, to not lose face, despite the tight schedule, still did everything elaborately.
Starting from welcoming the bride, they kept bustling about until the evening.
When Gu Youyou got married herself, she was exhausted. But compared to being a guest, being the bride wasn’t as tiring, after all, she only had to ride in a sedan chair, bow at the altar upon arrival, and then wait in the bridal chamber.
Gu Youyou watched the young Lin Shenxing offering toasts from the low table all the ti and thought being the groom is much more exhausting than being the bride.
