Master Gu had never been concerned about these things and had signalled to Yan Zixin before. She quickly replied: "I heard that it's better to choose an auspicious day for the host with State Protecting Temple. This time, I'll have to trouble nanny."

The smile on Matron Lady's lips became even more genuine. The Gu family had indeed become involved in this matter. Knowing that Marquis's Wife liked this daughter of hers, she would surely want to arrange everything properly for her.

Huang Daoji sounded simple, but it was just a test. Since Master Gu tactfully pushed her over and let Marquis's Wife decide, she was naturally happy.

How can I not be bothered? Yesterday, Marquis's Wife mentioned it to the host, and this morning, the host delivered a few days. Marquis's Wife felt dizzy and couldn't find anything between the two, so Master Gu had to take a look and pick one. Matron Lady took out a piece of red paper from her sleeve and carefully handed it over.

Yan Zixin had already understood that Marquis Stability's request for the Gu family to choose an auspicious day was just an excuse.

Look, it was just mentioned yesterday, but it was delivered today when the date was chosen.

At least he gave some face to Master Gu, so he didn't have to directly choose. He still left some leeway.

She thought for a while, but didn't show it on the surface. She respectfully took it and didn't look at it herself. She motioned for Zi Zhu to take it to the study room for Master Gu to make his decision.

The purple bamboo arrived in less than a quarter of an hour, and quickly handed over the red paper.

Yan Zixin took it over and glanced at it. Two days, one was next month's 16th, and the other was three months later.

Master Gu directly circled the first one with a brush, clearly choosing this one.

The days of the 16th of the next month were a bit tight. It had been less than a month, how could he prepare?

First, the storefronts and storehouses of the mansion were to be counted out so that they could be handed over to the new matron.

Secondly, there was still quite a lot of Madam Gu's stuff in Master Gu's yard, so they had to clean it up. Some things that should be sent to the warehouse and some things that should be thrown away, they should be thrown away.

Third, Gu Yunyan still had a temper and refused to give in. Gu Xuanyi still needed to spend some effort to convince this sister-in-law of his.

However, Yan Zixin knew very well that there was a hidden agenda behind Marquis Stability's Marquis's Wife giving him these two days.

Apparently, he was afraid that things might get out of hand, so he decided to marry his daughter early.

It was the same for early and late marriages. If Master Gu chose the latter, Marquis's Wife might think that he was unwilling and make a ruckus.

Since it was the same, he might as well bring the new wife in earlier.

Yan Zixin knew very well that they could not reject her offer, so she handed the red paper over to her with a smile, "nanny, it seems like you have been in a bit of a hurry these past few days. However, the people from the Gu's Mansion have long since begun to make preparations.

Satisfied with the Gu family's good sense, Matron Lady quickly took her dowry servants and left.

Looking at the boxes that filled the courtyard, Yan Zixin sighed and could only call attendant over. She repeatedly warned him to be careful as she placed all the items on the west wing and ordered another eight tall guards to guard the courtyard. The four of them formed a team. Sooner or later, they would take turns patrolling the area. They had to make sure that the courtyard was guarded like an iron bucket.

After all, they couldn't afford to miss even a single one of these items. If one was missing, the Gu Clan would be in big trouble.
