The Bookish Scholar of the Red Mansion

Mid-May was the day the Chen family arrived in Beijing. On this trip back, Chen Heng had tried his best to shorten the time and itinerary, and pushed forward all the invitations he could. It was such a rush, it took a month for the round trip.

Anticipating the time when her master would come back, Qingwen looked around and around in the main hall of her home. Before the young master left the house, he deliberately left fifty taels of silver so that she could add some furnishings and utensils to the house. The little maid who was looking after the house alone couldn't help but feel happy and worried when she thought that the young master's elders were here today.

Qingwen, you have no way out, but you must not offend the eldest man and the old lady in the house. The little girl warned herself in her heart. Before the feeling of having no place in the world could arise, she suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.

The young master must be back. Qingwen stood up hurriedly, holding the handkerchief and rushed to the door. We've just passed the atrium, but haven't reached the screen wall yet. I saw a group of strong men coming in carrying large baskets and small bags.

The leaders were Xinda and Xianglian. When they saw Qingwen coming, they hurriedly said: Qingwen, quickly lead these people to our warehouse and let them arrange them properly. Be careful, they are all going to be sent to the Lin family. Something important.”

That is the young master’s betrothal gift. Qingwen nodded and saw that everything was covered with red cloth, and the names of the things were written in black and white on the sides of the baskets to avoid trouble for others searching for them. She only took a few quick glances to know how to dispose of these things.

The three people were busy non-stop, but Chen Gaishan and Old Zhou, who had just entered Chen's house, had their eyes widened. On the way here, they heard from their eldest grandson that His Majesty gave them a house. But they didn't expect that the house would be so big and luxurious.

Chen Huaijin was also secretly surprised, but he had seen a lot of the world. I just took my second aunt Li, and put Chen's house and the Yangzhou salt merchant's mansion together to compare the pros and cons.

Chen Qingyue was the most courageous. As soon as he entered the house, he took Chen Yin around to play and watch each other. Along the way, I felt that everything was very strange. Chen Heng saw the nervousness and embarrassment of the two brothers-in-law, so he took Yuanyuan from the hands of the eldest brother-in-law and said to them: Eldest brother-in-law, second brother-in-law, we can go to the pavilion to drink tea in the evening. The night view there, It’s really good.”

Hu Xiangheng and Ye Guangchao looked at each other and nodded hurriedly. It seems that they still have to digest the impact of this house on them. Chen Heng held Yuan Yuan in one hand and took old Zhou to the main hall of his home.

Qingwen seemed to have learned the art of clones, and now she came back in a thrilling manner and was busy serving tea and water to her master. Seeing that she was sweating on her forehead, Chen Heng also advised: Just leave the rest to Xinda. You can wait here for now.

Hey, Master. Qingwen responded crisply.

Old Zhou's eyes have never looked away since Qingwen appeared. When Qingwen turned around to pour the tea, she took her eldest grandson and whispered: Heng'er, such a beautiful girl, whose young lady is in trouble?

Chen Heng couldn't explain, so he had to look at his mother. Gu had stayed in the capital for a while before and knew Qingwen's origins. She mentioned the matter to the Lin family and said that Daiyu was worried that Chen Heng would have no one to take care of him at home, so she specially hired a slave from outside to take care of him.

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she felt that Daiyu was really thoughtful and considerate of her grandson. But when I think about such a good family, even the maid is so beautiful. I began to worry deeply about whether the betrothal gift prepared by me was up to standard.

It's all the old man's fault. By making a sudden outburst, he shut out the thoughts of many people.

Chen Gaishan didn't know that he was being criticized for no reason, and he was stiffly stiffening his hands in his position. The old man has never lived in such a nice house in his life. Even though he knew it was his own home, he was a little constrained in his actions.

Chen Heng knew that his family still needed some time to adapt, so he got up and went to the warehouse to confirm the status of the betrothal gift with Xinda. To be honest, the Chen family has prepared a total of eighty-eight tons of betrothal gifts this time, which is already very generous.

There are gold, silver, pearls and jade jewelry, as well as silk and satin, not to mention paintings and calligraphy. One pair of dresses for the bride and groom are very finely made and beautiful. This is a female worker on Qiupu Street. When she learned that Chen Lang was going to marry the beloved daughter of the former prefect, she hurriedly made it and went to Beijing with the Chen family.

This amount, given the current financial situation of the Chen family, can be said to be enough to make the whole family rich. But if you look at a slave girl, she looks like a beautiful woman. It's no wonder that Mr. Zhou began to worry about gains and losses.

Chen Heng didn't care about this. He felt that it was good enough for his family to do this job. There is no need to compare with outsiders, and there is no need to be in line with the rich and powerful. Live your life for yourself. If you really want to sell everything at home so that you can marry a wife, you will turn a good thing into a bad thing. This was neither the teacher's nor Yu'er's original intention, and it also caused trouble to his own disciples.

That night, the family members each found a place to rest under Qingwen's arrangements. Starting tomorrow, they will start busying with Chen Heng's Six Rites.

…………

…………

Early the next morning, the Chen family had just woken up and were discussing who would be suitable to send the geese off to the Lin family. Suddenly, an eunuch from the palace came outside, saying that Prince Li Xian was visiting.

Chen Heng happened to be at home and hurriedly led his family to the door, waiting for Li Xian's arrival. After a while, the prince's honor guard arrived first. Soon, the car stopped at the door of Chen's house.

Li Xian took Li Jun out of the car and said to the Chen family who were saluting: Chen Qing, there is no need to be polite. I am here today, but I want to ask for a wedding drink with Chen Qing.

Chen Heng was shocked when he heard this and first invited the prince to sit in the mansion. He also took some elders and younger brothers to accompany him, and asked the prince suspiciously what he meant by that sentence.

Li Xian laughed loudly, raised his hand to signal the Chen family to just sit down, and said simply: Father heard about Chen Qing's marriage, and there was still one less person to preside over the marriage. It happened that Gu Gu had some free time recently, so he took over the matter from his father. Chen Qing You won’t mind.”

This is a great thing. Whoever marries a wife can ask the prince to be the officiant. Chen Heng was overjoyed and stood up from his seat. He saluted the smiling Li Xian and said, Your Highness can take charge of my small affairs. It is truly a blessing for me and Zhuojing.

Hearing that Chen Heng had called Daiyu Zhuojing, Li Jun, who was waiting beside Li Xian, couldn't help but smile and roll his eyes. You are such a champion, I never thought you would be so anxious.

Li Xian smiled and nodded, then waved his hand to the servants of the Prince's Mansion to pick up their belongings. Zhan Shi of the Prince's Mansion brought a copy of His Majesty's imperial edict, which was what Li Zhi had promised Chen Heng. In addition, there is also a plaque that the Ministry of Rites rushed to make and hang in Chen's house to enhance the momentum.

The plaque from the Ministry of Rites most complies with the official rules and reads Three Yuan Ji Di. If it is an ordinary number one scholar, it will be the words number one scholar and third. Another pair of wedding clothes was given. In addition to the clothes used by Chen Heng, another set of clothes, Xia Pi, was prepared for Daiyu.

These things are only Li Zhi's thoughts, and what follows is Li Xian's congratulatory gift. He chose thirty loads of congratulatory gifts from the prince's palace to show his gratitude. Among them, judging from the gift list, most of them are rare and valuable. With them here, if you look at every family in the capital, you can't say that the Chen family is not good at all.

Seeing the loads of congratulatory gifts brought into the palace with his own eyes, even Chen Heng himself was moved. He thanked Li Xian directly: I haven't made any achievements yet, but I have to meet your majesty and the prince's favor and care. It's really...

Hey. Li Xian waved his hands with a smile and said comfortingly, Chen Qing, there is no need to be humble. My father and I are still thinking about your ability to make money. After a pause, Li Xian said again, Since I want to marry you, Chen It would be nice for you to take me around your house to get acquainted with the familiar place.

Chen Heng burst into tears with gratitude and immediately responded: Your Highness, please.

Li Jun followed the two of them and looked at Chen Heng's excitement. I thought to myself: Okay, Li's emperor's mental skills have learned another trick. With Grandpa and Dad acting like this, Chen Heng will not be able to do anything for their Li family in the future.

He was so excited that he turned his attention to Chen Qingyue and Chen Yin who were accompanying him. The three of them were about the same age. Seeing that Qingyue looked smart, Li Jun asked quietly: Are you Mr. Chen's younger brother?

Back to Your Highness, Cao Min is my elder brother's second brother. Chen Qingyue pulled over the young Chen Yin and introduced him, This guy is our third brother. Third brother, please come and greet Your Highness. Chen Yin couldn't help but roll his eyes and said in disgust. Not as bold as his second brother.

What Chen Qingyue said was really funny. Li Jun heard it interestingly and couldn't help chatting with Qingyue more. The latter hangs out at the second uncle's tea stall all year round. He has a sharp tongue that was born in his mother's womb. After training, he even has a lot of witty words. Li Jun shouted that it was interesting and kept saying it.

You are much more interesting than your elder brother. He always has a straight face and is too literary. When people talk to him, he always worries whether what he says is rude.

Chen Qingyue nodded in agreement and said with sadness: Your Highness, I see the same thing with eldest brother.

Oh? Why is this? Li Jun was deeply surprised and asked curiously, But your eldest brother often bullied you when he was a child?

That's not true. Chen Qingyue hurriedly shook his head and recalled the past with a dark face, But he liked to punish me to copy books and write articles.

Li Jun, who was still studying in the palace, immediately shook his body, raised his hand to his forehead and said: Stop talking, stop talking. I have a headache after listening to it.

Chen Heng didn't know the conversation between the three people, so he still introduced Li Xian to various places in his home. The two chatted for a while, and Li Xian ordered Zhan Shi from the Prince's Mansion to take a pair of wild geese to the Lin family.

…………

…………

When Lin Ruhai heard that Zhan Shi came to the Prince's Mansion, he knew why His Majesty had ordered him to wait at home so early today. When he welcomed Zhan Shi in, the official surnamed Huang raised his hand and congratulated: Congratulations to Mr. Lin on your happy event and your son-in-law.

Seeing Master Huang followed by a pair of palace eunuchs holding wild geese, Lin Ruhai could not guess what was going on. While he ordered people to collect the geese, he smiled and chatted with Mr. Huang for a few words. After Zhan Shi from the Prince's Mansion left, Jia Min walked out of the back room and took Daiyu to stand in front of the colorful clothes and Xia Phi that had been delivered.

With this set of clothes given by the emperor, the one my mother prepared for you is no longer of use. Jia Min said with a half-distressed smile. The person in the palace could be so concerned about the marriage of her daughter and son-in-law. As an elder, how could she be unhappy? This means that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at him, the more she likes him.

Daiyu blushed and did not dare to speak. Lin Jue, who came over after hearing the news, rubbed his hands eagerly. When he heard that Qingyue was going to Beijing, he couldn't help but want to go and play with his friends. His eyes were wandering around, and he didn't know what he was up to.

As the head of the family, Lin Ruhai looked at her grown-up daughter, then thought about Li Zhi and Li Xian's intentions, and smiled at his wife: Originally, I wanted to keep Yu'er for a year or two, and wait until she was eighteen before we could get married. I think your Majesty means that Heng'er will be released after this year at most.

Ah? How could this be so? Jia Min blinked and wondered, Isn't this number one scholar determined to stay in Beijing?

At this moment, Lin Ruhai calmed Jia Min's emotions, The situation in the imperial court is unclear now, and it is incompetent and time-consuming to establish a new scholar in it. It is better to go out early and do practical things for the local people, which will help the stability of the imperial court. Sheji.”

Jia Min listened silently, then turned to look at her beloved daughter, feeling a sense of reluctance involuntarily. This was the child she had conceived in ten months and raised with all kinds of hardships. I originally thought that after marrying Heng'er, I could stay in Beijing with my husband and stay with him for a few more years. Who would have thought that these two people would have to travel far away from home just after they got married.

Daiyu noticed her mother's strange behavior and hurriedly reached out to hold Jia Min. She really didn't know what to say. There is both the longing and joy of marrying the one you love, and the reluctance to leave your family in every possible way.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was very open-minded and only looked at his beloved daughter: Yu'er... He thought for a long time and then said, Dad is relieved that you can marry Heng'er.

Um.

Daiyu nodded gently.

That night, Daiyu took Zicuckoo and Xueyan and hid in Jia Min's house. While mending stitches, several people talked about the warmth of mother and daughter. They all cherished this time at home.

…………

…………

A few days later, Zhan Shi from the Prince's Mansion came back with a letter of etiquette from the Lin Mansion. On this small red post, Daiyu's horoscope is written. Handing it to Chen Qi and Gu indicated that the elders of the Lin family had agreed to the marriage.

Next was Najib. Chen Qi took the horoscopes of Chen Heng and Daiyu and came to the ancestral hall at home. The ancestral tablets here were brought here by the Chen family from their hometown, and they are all direct elders of the Chen Gaishan family. Above the ancestral hall, there is a plaque with the name of Sanyuan Ji. Just looking at it like this makes me feel that the people here are extraordinary.

Li Xian sent a ceremonial officer to help Chen Qi preside over the divination. Needless to say, the result was natural. The ceremonial officer used eight words to describe it: 'A match made in heaven, making the moon prosperous'.

Everyone in the house was filled with joy and continued to prepare for the next thing. After Naji, it is the Nazheng where the man's family sends betrothal gifts to the woman's family. With the help of the Prince's Mansion, the Chen family hired porters to clear two streets.

The leader, Chen Huaijin, was the happiest, leading a long queue all the way from Chen's residence to Lin's residence. Behind him was the invited band, and the gongs and drums were noisy along the way, which naturally attracted attention. Everyone looked over and looked at the porters who couldn't see the end of the road, and they all asked about the origins of the newlyweds.

I heard that the Chen Zhuangyuan family, who had won six yuan in a row, was getting married to the Zuodu Yushi family. Everyone clapped their hands and praised: Yue Lao is a matchmaker, and the couple is made in heaven. They all followed him to join in the fun and compliment each other. With these people helping out, the gift-giving queue was so long that three or four streets could not accommodate it.

With the excitement outside, it was natural that the people in Rongguo Mansion could not hide it. Baochai was having a leisurely gathering with Tanchun and others today. When she heard the commotion outside, she asked someone to go outside and asked about the reason. Only then did she learn that the Chen family and the Lin family were having a wedding.

The people in the room suddenly fell into unspeakable silence. I really didn’t expect that Sister Lin would get married so soon. They all looked so surprised, let alone Baoyu from Yihongyuan.

As soon as he got the news, he stumbled back into the house as if he had lost his soul. Xiren thought he had drunk too much with Xue Pan again, so he came up with sobering tea, but Baoyu threw him out in anger. Xiren was startled and hurriedly asked She Yue and others to guard the door. He knelt down and looked at the young master who had his head buried in his arms.

Master, what's wrong with you? Did something bad happen to you again?

At this moment, Baoyu had already burst into tears. Thinking that he was so infatuated that he had become a heartless and useless thing, a huge sense of loss engulfed the young man's body and mind. He murmured: Ying Xiao Jia Lang has not got everything, Ying Xiao Jia Lang has not got everything...

Why doesn't God have mercy on me? Why doesn't God have mercy on me?

In despair, Baoyu couldn't help but raise his hands and beat the table, crying and heartbroken.

…………

…………

When the in-laws came to give gifts, the middle door of Lin's residence was naturally opened wide, welcoming everyone into the residence while accepting congratulations from the surrounding neighbors. Needless to say, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min smiled, but Lin Jue finally found a job and was able to follow Chen Huaijin to Chen's house.

As soon as he arrived at the farm, he first greeted the elders of the Chen family and then went to find Chen Qingyue excitedly. As a result, he ran to Qingyue's door and bumped into Chen Heng coming out of it. Lin Jue, this kid, was immediately frightened. Standing in the corridor politely, he saluted: Brother-in-law.

Yeah. Chen Heng glanced at his brother-in-law, thinking that these two boys would not be able to read well together, so he said directly, No riding horses or climbing trees, lest you hurt yourself.

Hey, brother-in-law, I saved it. I will definitely not hurt myself and miss your wedding date with your sister. Lin Jue responded happily. Anyway, as long as you don't read today, you can do anything.

Chen Heng didn't pay much attention to them and went directly back to the central hall to discuss the wedding date with his parents. There are many good days ahead. Taking into account various factors, the wedding date was finally set in July after the wedding.

After Lin Jue had enough fun at the Chen family, he led the manager of the Lin family home together. At this point, the only thing left for the two families is to wait for the wedding day to arrive.

The two families were busy and happy, but the younger men of the Jia family were depressed. You said you shouldn't go to this wedding, it doesn't make sense. Jia's mother is her maternal grandmother, and Jia She and Jia Zheng are Daiyu's biological uncles. There is no reason not to go. Not to mention that the person presiding over the wedding is still the prince. If he doesn't go, he will be beaten to the dignity of the palace.

But go ahead, thinking about what Chen Heng did to Xue Pan before, it makes you feel embarrassed. The men of the Jia family were acting stupidly, and Jia Zheng finally learned about what was going on at home. He immediately got angry, rushed to Baoyu's house, grabbed him and packed him up.

How did I write to you these years when I was away? I told you to read and study hard, and don't get tired and go out to cause trouble. You can't go a day without reading a book, or you won't stand up if you are rude. You hang out with friends all day long. , I can't even read a serious book. Look at the poor people outside, who are not striving for self-improvement?

The more Jia Zheng talked, the angrier he became. He chased after Baoyu's butt with his family method and waved it, The number one scholar who has won six yuan in a row is the first person in the scientific examination in my dynasty. You dare to get angry with him. Wait until he comes in the future. When you enter the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister, are you going to take your parents' heads and put them on his case for him to play with?

Jia Zheng had served as a local academic administrator and knew the nature of scholars best. When they are invincible outside, they like to fight inside. But once a noble disciple comes to them, these people are the best to vent their anger through one nostril, which can be said to affect the whole body.

Not to mention people like Jie Yuan and Number One Scholar, who are all central figures in the annual scientific examinations. In the same year they were on the list, there were a lot of responders waving their sleeves.

At Chen Heng's age, joining the cabinet and becoming prime minister may depend on chance. But in the future, it is a sure thing to be in the second or third rank of officialdom and wear scarlet jade. How stupid is his son to seek the other person's displeasure everywhere?

Fortunately, Baoyu was smart and ran to Jia's mother in one breath, only to be saved by her grandmother because Daiyu's wedding was approaching and the child was injured and could not go out by then.

With his old mother in front, Jia Zheng had no choice but to smash the bamboo stick in his hand on the ground and said angrily: A loving mother often loses her children, a loving mother often loses her children.

…………

…………

Shortly after the library selection in early July, the list was circulated everywhere. This time, the Hanlin Academy received a total of twelve shuji scholars and twenty political watchers. These people are Beijing officials who are sure to stay in Beijing, and they are half a step ahead in the officialdom. The remaining Jinshi must consider the way to be released abroad.

Some people celebrated, while others secretly regretted it. But there are also many smart people who have already voluntarily given up on choosing a library and started looking for ways to study abroad in May or June. They start early, and good places don’t wait for people. There were many good places immediately, which were selected by them first.

Wen Yu, who was the successor, also followed this path. His uncle had discussed with him that nowadays there are many palaces on the hilltop. If young people stay here, they will not be able to get things done. On the contrary, they will cause trouble and kill their ambitions. It is better to go to the local area and hone your practical abilities. When you have enough qualifications, it will be a matter of course for you to enter Beijing to govern.

So, you are not going to continue working in the Maritime Affairs Department? Chen Heng has a special place at home to receive guests. The two of them came together and sat on the soft couch under the wooden window. The sandalwood rises, I have good friends and good tea, so happy.

Wen Yu nodded and sighed: It's a good yamen. Today the boss talks about the long story, but tomorrow the west wing talks about the short story. Pushing back and forth on a simple matter is not the place for us to do anything.

If you don't talk about me, I'm afraid that if you live in January or February, you will probably let it out. Wen Yu looked at Chen Heng. Most of the news about him in the court came from Wen Shiqian, and the source can be said to be very true and reliable.

Chen Heng did not hide it from him. Not only Uncle Lin mentioned this matter several times, but Li Zhi and Li Xian also hinted at it. He is Sandingjia, so he does not need to participate in the palace selection and be awarded an additional officer. As long as the palace examination is completed, he will automatically receive the official title of a sixth-grade Hanlin Academy editor.

It should be after we get married and stay for another month or two that we will set off.

Chen Heng had to enter the Hanlin Academy. Now that I'm in, I have to spend some time to gain qualifications. When the time is almost up, you have to go somewhere to hone your skills.

Where are you going? Wen Yu had an expected expression on his face. He moved early and planned a job in Qingniwa before Du Yunjing and others left the library. This place is already undergoing great development, and one or two important ministers will be needed in the future. If we were close, we could still be together as we did before.

Chen Heng laughed when he heard this, shook his head and said: How could I know this? Your Majesty didn't say anything...

Then it seems that only Brother Cui will go to Beidi with me. Wen Yu sighed. It was a pity. Chen Heng's words were mysterious, but when he heard it, he knew that Beidi was definitely not within the scope of Li Zhi and Chen Heng's consideration.

He probably has to wait for a while. Speaking of Cui Huan, there is a happy event. He and Wei Yinghong's granddaughter Wei Shu are about to become a couple. Speaking of which, counting with Chen Heng, it has something to do with walking.

Ha. Wen Yu nodded with a smile and teased, His ranking in the imperial examination is behind you, and even the wedding date is behind you. Brother Cui said that when you get married tomorrow, he will definitely get you drunk.

People are in high spirits when happy events happen. Chen Heng was not afraid at all. He just raised his hand and said, Just ask him to let his horse come over.

While the two were talking, Xinda suddenly ran into the house and said that the dowry from the Lin family had been delivered. When Chen Heng heard this, he was shocked and immediately stood up and rushed to the central hall. Wen Yu wanted to celebrate the occasion and also accompanied him.

Several people came to the place where the sun shines, and saw the light and shadow in the courtyard, and the porters came and went, and came and went. Only then did Liu Xianglian notice them coming, and she said excitedly: Zhixing, you don't know, it's very lively outside now.

Chen Heng chuckled and nodded implicitly. He was going to be the groom's official soon. No matter how busy it was outside, he couldn't go out to see it. He could only listen to Liu Xianglian's account of the situation.

The Lin family's dowry amounted to one hundred and eighty-eight loads, which was far more exaggerated than what the Chen family had given. The queue was so long that five or six streets could not be filled and could not be completed. That's all. Lin Ruhai had a wide network of contacts in the capital, including countless colleagues, disciples, relatives and friends.

The gift-giving team passed by the door of these people's homes. There will inevitably be a few servants carrying things and shouting, Master so-and-so, add some boxes and carry some to join the queue.

In this way, the gift-giving queue is lengthened. It wasn't over until they arrived at Chen's house with their things, from when the sun was shining high until the sunset was shining brightly. The courtyard of the Chen family is filled with things sent by the Lin family. Chen Qi and Gu, who were already nervous, were anxious to rearrange Chen Heng's wedding room.

Chen Heng didn't have to worry about this matter. He was also very busy tonight. Xue Biao, Qian Dayou, and Jiang Yuanbai have all rushed home. Many Jinshi scholars of the same year heard the news and came over, ready to help their champion.

The library selection has ended, and many of them will be released in the next few days. The first batch of Jinshi to leave also asked someone to bring their gifts. As the number of people increased, the candlelight in Chen's mansion was inevitably bright enough to make daylight rise.

I heard that the Lin family has prepared a lot of questions to embarrass us?

Brother Du is really a traitor. He was so frightened by his wife's words that he went directly over there to help his wife. We must not be suppressed by him then.

What's the point of panic? I have all the poems ready, just ask them to come over.

Brother Xue, does your sister have any news over there that I can secretly pass on to you?

This can also be said about me. Xue Biao quickly waved his hand to the Jinshi who asked the question and said with a smile: My sister went to the Lin Mansion a few days ago. I didn't even meet her, so how could I know their thoughts and plans.

…………

…………

In the Lin Mansion, the lanterns were lit for the first time. The lanterns of the past have been replaced with festive red colors, and the servants in the mansion are busy non-stop. Jia Min and Lin Ruhai also had no time to spare, and asked about the situation everywhere from time to time. The old parents' love for their daughter completely exploded tonight.

Only Daiyu was sitting in her boudoir, chatting with the sisters who came over. Bao Qin must be there, and there is no need to say more about Wei Qijun, Wei Shu and others who have been handkerchiefs since childhood. Over at Jia Mansion, Sanchun, Xiangyun and others were called. Only Baochai is missing. It is said that he will arrive with Baoyu tomorrow. The empress in the palace has announced that the marriage of these two people should be decided at a later date.

Daiyu introduced the sisters, and Wei Qi smiled and said: I have been looking forward to it day and night, and finally I hope for something good for my sister. Finally, before I leave Beijing, I can drink my sister's wedding wine.

Baoqin also chuckled and teased Wei Qijun: Sister Wei, it's okay even if you miss it, as long as you are polite and feel good about it.

Wei Qijun's eyes widened and he replied: You sister Qin, you are truly worthy of being a big boss in charge of the trading company. This idea is all about my sister.

Seeing that Wei Qijun was about to bully Wei Shu together, Baoqin hurriedly hid behind Daiyu and said repeatedly: Sister Lin, save me.

You two, don't bully Baoqin. Daiyu put her hands on her hips to protect Baoqin behind her, laughing while blocking her.

Okay, okay, on your big day, we will listen to you today. Wei Qijun blinked, looked at Daiyu, and then said, We will settle this account on Baoqin's big day in the future.

Hahaha. Baoqin smiled and stretched out two fingers, Then I will want a double gift.

If you talk too much, of course you will be indispensable. It depends on whether your husband is willing to accept it. Wei Qijun smiled. After all, she is a married woman, so her courage is different. She turned her head again and took the initiative to chat with the Jia girl.

Xiang Yun has the most cheerful temperament. Although he and Dai Yu's handkerchiefs haven't met much, they have spoken a few words and made everyone laugh. Tanchun leaned forward and looked at Daiyu's wedding dress curiously.

The wedding dress is a true red double-breasted large-sleeved shirt and a bright red pleated skirt, made of satin with gold embroidery and lotus makeup. Next to the wedding dress is a Xia Phi made of Qingluo gold embroidery, with clouds and magpie patterns on it, and silver flower and gold pendants hanging on both ends. After all, it is the craftsmanship of the palace. At a glance, every part is exquisite and beautiful.

Thinking that Daiyu would wear this set of clothes tomorrow and the expensive jewelry prepared by Jia Mu and Jia Min, Tanchun couldn't help but praise: This dress is so beautiful. Sister Lin looks even better when she wears it.

Xichun's temperament was a little weird, and he joked on the spot: Is it possible that Sister Tanchun is also attracted by love? Today is an auspicious day, so there is no harm in telling her about it. Later, my sister will also find a talented husband for her sister, and then let him leave the palace. Come here and ask for a set.

You don't have to look far for a good man. It just so happens that all the new scholars will be here tomorrow. Wei Qijun rolled his eyes and answered with a smile before saying anything, We'll take a look at them through the window. If there's anyone we like, , just ask the No. 1 scholar’s ​​wife to come out and be a matchmaker. She has a lot of face, and she will tell you exactly what she says. When the time comes, you will do well, and I will do well. Good things come in pairs, and life gets better and better.

Tanchun didn't expect that she would be teased. She didn't want to tease Wei Qijun, so she pulled Xiangyun forward to catch Xichun. This girl was also interesting. She hid behind Wei Qijun in a few steps and said with a smile: Good sister, please tell Sister Lin to save me.

These little girls are still having fun in the boudoir. Wei Yinghong's wife, Fan, has brought several ladies to Chen's house to make beds. Young Master Ding of the Lin family, and Jia Min did not want Mrs. Wang to get involved in her daughter's marriage. Since it's not easy to invite Mrs. Wang, there's no need for the sister-in-law to get involved. Only Mrs. Shangshu, who had both children and a daughter, was asked to come over and go to the Chen family to complete this last step of the ceremony.

In the Chen family's wedding room, there were several women and maids holding bed utensils, as well as longan, red dates, lotus seeds and other dried fruits. After Mrs. Fan took charge of everything, she smiled and said: Place the mandarin duck pillows on the bed. The love between husband and wife lasts forever. Make the bed and spread the tent——
