Soon, Tong Huaqiong discovered that Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu indeed went to Lu Zhaozhao to ask for the dowry.
To Tong Huaqiong's relief, Jingzhe stood at the forefront, bearing the pressure from the two elders. Not only did he scold them, but he also declared that no one in the family should scheme for Lu Zhaozhao's dowry.
After this confrontation, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu were still worried about Gu Honglian's dowry. The Fan Family urged urgently, and the couple had been troubled for days without sleep.
The marriage negotiations between Fan Tong and Gu Honglian cooled down.
Gu Honglian cried like a weeping figure.
However, a few days later, the Fan Family unexpectedly sent a matchmaker to visit again.
Mrs. Gu was overjoyed, but Mr. Gu was indifferent; he carefully pondered Jingzhe's words.
The reason Fan Tong proposed again was not because of Gu Honglian, but because of the relationship between Tong Huaqiong and Jingzhe.
