Chapter 251 Imperial Capital (1st Update)
Imperial Capital Xu Family
The Xu father and son sat in the study.
"Dad, I heard that Old Master Gu and the young man from the Gu Family have returned," Xu Hongtu relayed the latest news to his father, Xu Chengyun.
They had set up such a grand scheme in the Imperial Capital, all to force the Gu Family’s grandfather and grandson out into the open.
"Has any illness been discovered in the Gu Family’s young man?" Xu Chengyun wasn’t surprised at all upon hearing the news.
Xu Hongtu shook his head, "Not yet."
"No matter if he’s sick or not, the fact that he dares to come back this time probably means he’s mostly recovered. Now that the Gu Family’s old man is back, it’s only natural for us to pay a visit. Tell Xuezi to get ready, have her dress up nicely. We’ll go to the Gu Family for a visit tomorrow." Xuezi was his eldest granddaughter, born in the same year as the Gu Family’s son. If matching family status were taken into account, a marriage alliance between the Gu Family and Xu Family would be most suitable.
Xu Hongtu obviously understood what his grandfather was thinking; he simply wanted to test the Gu Family’s attitude to see if they were considering a marital alliance with the Xu Family.
If the Gu Family had no intention of an alliance, there would be no need for the Xu Family to curry favor with them.
Xu Xuezi was thrilled to learn that Gu Yecheng had returned to the Imperial Capital.
