Words:1004Update:22/07/01 07:19:03
With the arrival of the New Year, the entire capital was bustling with activity.
Life was getting better and better with each passing year. There was more to look forward to, and the New Year was even more grand.
Gu Qingyao gave red packets to the children at home. On the second day of the New Year, she brought Little Bun to her parents' house to pay a New Year's visit.
On this day, the entire Gu family was present.
Eldest Uncle's family, Third Uncle's family, Gu Yunshen, and Qiao Yuying were all present.
Eldest Brother and Third Brother were already married, but Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law did not return to their parents' house. Instead, they came to Second Uncle's house.
They all knew that Gu Qingyao would return to her parents' house on the second day of the New Year, so they instinctively avoided it. They would only return to their parents' house after the first or second day of the New Year.
Sometimes, this was a reflection of a person's ability.
When you were outstanding, the people in the family would naturally accommodate you and put you first.
The second branch of the Gu family was the most powerful branch. Second Uncle held a high position and his position was becoming more and more stable. Second Brother Gu Jinhang had risen through the ranks at a frightening speed. It was difficult to find anyone in the younger generation who could match him.
The Fourth Brother's business expanded rapidly, and the second branch's wealth continued to increase. With Gu Qingyao, her position as Young Madam of the Mo family was secure. Mo Beihan practically obeyed her every word.
The entire Gu family and the Mo family practically shared their resources.
All the descendants of the Gu family enjoyed the protection of this system. With the support of the Gu family and the Mo family, few people dared to provoke the descendants of the Gu family, even in the capital, where there were so many aristocrats.
This was the importance of family background.
As for the Gu family and the Mo family, they were supported by those few important figures. Usually, when everyone did things, they would naturally be used to prioritizing them.
The eldest branch was the eldest son and eldest grandson, but their combined ability was falling further and further behind the second branch.
If not for the fact that Eldest Brother Gu Jinye was their anchor, many people would have used this to sow discord between the eldest and second branches!
The Old Master and Old Madam had always lived in the second branch. They had gotten used to it and did not move.
Today, there were children running everywhere in the house, and the sound of laughter resounded throughout the Gu family.
Gu Qingyao pulled Gu Fangting aside and whispered, "What happened between you and Jiang Xun recently? Five years ago. How long has it been? Why haven't I heard you mention marriage? "
"Why do I feel like something's wrong with you guys recently?"
Although the two of them were not too old, they were definitely not young either. They had reached the age where they should get married.
If it was someone else who he didn't know well, it would be fine. However, it had to be Gu Fangting and Jiang Xun.
The two of them had grown up together. They were childhood sweethearts and knew each other very well. Five years ago … Now it should be six years ago. They had been together for six years.
They had studied together, started their business together, and walked step by step to where they were today. If there had been no problems in their relationship, Gu Qingyao would not have specially asked Gu Fangting.
But recently, she realized that there was something wrong with the two of them.
Gu Fangting bit her lip. Her eyes were slightly red. "Older Sister, our seniority has always been a big problem."
"You are my older sister, but Elder Brother Jiang Xun is Mumu's cousin. He has to address Brother-in-law as Uncle. We …"
Gu Qingyao frowned. "Wasn't this problem resolved many years ago? No one in the family objected! "
"It's true that Jiang Xun is Mumu's cousin, but he is my teacher's grandnephew. According to the seniority in the Jiang family, he is of the same generation as me. In a large family, there are so many children and grandchildren. Those who are of lower seniority are mostly older."
