Chapter 1337: Nie Cong’s Wife

However, the Nie Family was not just a merchant family. They also had a background, connections, and money.

Although Nie Cong was only an insignificant official now, he was very quick-witted. In the future, when he made meritorious contributions and had qualifications, he could still move forward.

Therefore, Nie Cong’s future was visible.

Nie Cong’s residence was still some distance away from the street where Gu Yundong was. Compared to Gu Yundong’s three-courtyard house, the Nie residence was much larger.

After all, the Nie Family was rich and had already bought an estate in the capital.

When Gu Yundong and Tong Shuitao stood at the entrance of the Nie residence, it was already past noon.

She did not have any invitations, so she could only ask the concierge to help pass on a message.

The concierge looked at Gu Yundong apologetically and said, “Madam, you should come another day. We have something on today and Young Master is not seeing guests.”

‘No visitors?’

Gu Yundong considered whether she should leave or not, but she remembered that her house was far from the Nie family and it was not easy to make a trip there. Hence, she insisted on meeting Nie Cong first.

She took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it over. “Then I’ll have to trouble you to pass this letter to your young master. Tell him that we came from his hometown in Xuanhe Prefecture. His family asked me to pass this letter to him and see if he wants to see me.”

When the gatekeeper heard that she had come from the Xuanhe Prefecture and had brought a letter from the Nie family, the smile on his face instantly became much more sincere and respectful. He immediately nodded and said, “Alright, then wait a moment, Madam. I’ll be back soon.”

With that, he ran in with the letter.

Gu Yundong waited for less than half a quarter before she saw the concierge running over with Nie Cong behind him.

After being apart for two years, Nie Cong looked much darker.

She still remembered the first time she saw him at the city gate. Although he was wearing the clothes of a soldier, his face was very tender. He did not look like a soldier. Instead, he looked more like a white-faced scholar.

At that time, Gu Yundong had felt that he was a gentleman and polite. He did things at a moderate pace and had been nurtured since he was young.

But now, he had changed drastically. He walked with large strides and became much leaner and capable.

In her eyes, Nie Cong was a completely different person. In Nie Cong’s eyes, Gu Yundong had also changed.

He had a deep impression of that thin, small, and exceptionally tenacious little girl back then.

He did not expect that after not seeing her for two years, not only had she become prettier, but she had also become someone else’s wife.

Nie Cong quickly stood in front of her. “Sister Gu.”

It was a familiar voice. The barrier between them that they had not seen for two years was instantly gone. Gu Yundong suddenly smiled widely. “Young Master Nie, long time no see.”

Nie Cong laughed. “Why are you still calling me Young Master Nie?” He shook his head and turned around, but he didn’t see Shao Qingyuan. “Where’s your husband?”

“He had something to do, so I came alone.”

Nie Cong did not probe further. He quickly moved half of his body aside. “Come in first. Let’s talk inside.”

Gu Yundong led Tong Shuitao inside. The Nie residence was really big. It was a large courtyard with many servants.

Along the way, many people stared at them, as if they were very curious about the woman who had been personally led in by the young master.

Gu Yundong keenly saw a servant girl rushing to the backyard.

She recalled that Nie Cong was now a married man and immediately asked, “I haven’t seen your wife yet. Should I meet her first?”
