Chapter 949 Farce in the Sheng Mansion!

But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. All the guests outside were here. Besides, the earl also came in person, so it was hard to make things too tense.

I could only open the door to persuade: "Madam, I guess Mrs. Yuan is really sick. Although it is not appropriate for Uncle Yuan to come by himself, this just proves that he takes it seriously~"

"My wife, now that the Yuan family has arrived, and Uncle Yuan has personally presented the employment, no matter what, we still have to go and greet him~"

"Huh, Mrs. Yuan isn't even here, why should I go there?"

"What you said is wrong. Uncle Yuan is the head of the house, and I heard that the Yuan family came to report that just a few days ago, our future eldest son-in-law was promoted by the official family personally. Now he is also with me. Wearing the same green robe and achieving this result at the age of 18, the future is limitless..."

Although Wang Ruofu was fuming, he was actually relatively simple-minded. He was coaxed by Sheng Hong with a few words. The two of them laughed and took their eldest son Chang Bai and their eldest son Chang Wu together. Go to the dock to meet you.

It was natural to bring his own son, why should he also bring his nephew? That was because the second and third bedrooms of the Sheng family always supported each other.

Chang Wu was the son of his cousin Sheng Wei. He liked to wield swords and guns since he was a child. He knew nothing about the imperial examinations, so he wanted to help his nephew get a position in the army.

This time is also an opportunity. The Yuan family is noble in any case, and they can still speak well in the army. The old man was once a famous general in the northwest camp, and he still has many old subordinates.

The two families were chatting with each other at the dock. Sheng Hong's official position was relatively small, and because he was the host, he spoke first: "Brother Boquan, you have worked hard after traveling and traveling. Come to the house to have a rest~"

"I'm really sorry. Zhuo Jinglin caught wind and cold when he set out. It was too slow, Brother Sheng and Madam. I'd like to apologize to you!"

Uncle Yuan was really brave. In full view of everyone, a third-rank earl actually bowed to a seventh-rank judge.

Seeing this scene, the unhappiness in Sheng Hong's heart has naturally disappeared.

He quickly helped him up: "Why did Bo Quan do this? It really makes Sheng ashamed~"

After that, several people got on the carriage and rushed towards Sheng Mansion, followed by a long queue of betrothal gifts.

Now the Yangzhou people have gained a lot of experience. The people in front have been gone for a quarter of an hour, and the betrothal gifts on the ship have not been unloaded yet, which shows how much stuff there is.

"Oh, look at this scene, it really deserves to be the Earl's Mansion in the capital~"

"Zhen Zhenzhen, this Shanda man is so lucky!"

"Hey, Zhao Juren, don't you always say that your relationship with Master Tongpan is unusual? Why didn't you go over to ask for a wedding drink?"

"Get out~"

Yuan Wenchun and his wife in the carriage heard the voices of people outside. The nostrils of the noble disciples from the capital city were almost raised to the sky. They had a strong sense of superiority.

However, Zhang's focus was different. Looking at the many betrothal gifts at the back, she couldn't help but say sourly.

"My lord, our future second siblings are so lucky. My betrothal gift back then was not even a quarter of this!"

"How can this be compared~" Yuan Wenchun smiled bitterly.

Later, seeing his wife's confused face, she went to her ear and whispered: "A large part of these things were specially prepared by my grandmother for Brother Shao to get a wife. Otherwise, how could our family be able to marry him?" I can bring out so many things~”

"Hmph, partiality, you are the eldest son, why should my grandmother..."

"Okay, stop complaining, it's okay if your father hears this!"

Yuan Wenchun quickly interrupted his wife. It was unfilial to talk about elders behind their backs.

She even changed the subject and said, "I'm worried now about what to do with what my mother told me. Runniang, please think of a way for me!"

"Guardian, we can find that Gu Tingye who came with us. I heard that he is a well-known dandy in the capital. It will be good if he wins the betrothal gift. I think it is hard for my father to say anything. After all, Ning Yuanhou is now a celebrity in the official family~ ” ˆ ˆ ˜ After all, Zhang is still a woman, and she has a common problem of being petty. She felt uncomfortable when she saw this betrothal gift, and she tried every means to cause something to happen.

After arriving at the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Hong and his wife went in first to prepare. When it was almost time, the matchmaker invited by the Yuan family took a look at the master.

After getting the answer, he shouted loudly: "County Zhongqin's Mansion in Bianjing is here to offer employment to the second son Yuan Wenshao!"

After hearing this, the boy at the gatehouse of the Sheng Mansion hurriedly ran into the courtyard to report the news. This process was indispensable. In the end, Sheng Hong and his wife sat down and answered, "Yes!"

The servant saluted, then ran back to the door again and said to the matchmaker: "Yes!"

The matchmaker heard this and shouted with a smile: "Congratulations to the Yuan family, congratulations to the Yuan family. Yuan Wenshao, the second son of your family, wants to marry the eldest daughter of the Sheng family. The Yan family says yes."

This is just a formality. At this point, few people would say "no", because doing so would be enmity, and the two families would fight to the death.

I saw Uncle Yuan tidying up his clothes, saluting at the door: "Earl Zhongqin's Mansion, thank you for your permission!"

Before the ceremony was completed, the servants of the Yuan family began to carry things into the mansion, shouting loudly every time they entered.

"Officiating a pair of live birds and wild geese outside the Great Wall, eighty-eight pieces of Sichuan silk..."

While he was busy here, Yuan Wenchun also found Gu Tingye and briefly explained his purpose, asking him to help him pitch a hard betrothal gift.

But I didn't expect Uncle Gu to disagree at all. It's different now than in the play. He often hangs out in Goulanwashe, so he often hears the name "Cold-faced Yama" Mr. Yuan. If this helps, Isn't this an obvious enmity?

Yuan Wenchun had no choice at this time. He couldn't force others. Fortunately, there was an alternative plan, but when he was about to implement it, Sheng Changfeng, who was hard at work over there, didn't wait for him to fall into the trap.

Uncle Yuan on the side noticed something was wrong. A little gambling was harmless, but why did it block the betrothal gift?

Taking the initiative to turn around and slap him, he said, "Brother Sheng, in my opinion, we shouldn't continue playing. Everyone should go to the bar in front~"

"Okay, okay, brother Boquan is right, let's go to the front and have a drink!"

Before Sheng Hong left, he specifically glared at his little bastard.

Just now, I accidentally chatted with the colleague next to me. Why did this brat risk his daughter's betrothal gift? If he lost, wouldn't it be a joke for the Sheng family?

……

While there was a farce going on in the Sheng family, at the same time in Bianjing City, Mrs. Yuan in the Earl's Mansion was looking happy.

"Mother Qi, I have been taking medicine for seven or eight days. Can I be cured now?"

"It should be fine, madam. You don't need to light so many braziers in the house at night. You can also reduce the number of quilts by then, so that you won't sweat too much~"

Aunt Qi also had a smile on her face, because she had also suffered in the past few days. This room, which was like a sauna, was really not a place for people to stay.

Mrs. Yuan has been drinking traditional Chinese medicine for the past two days, and she can't suppress the bitter taste no matter the sweet preserves. She feels like she has almost lost her sense of taste.

Once I heard that I no longer had to pretend to be sick, I was stammering when I was so excited.

"Quick...quick, hurry...go and ask the doctor to diagnose me~"

"As ordered, I will do it right away!"

After the doctor came over to make the diagnosis, Mrs. Yuan immediately sent someone to notify her second son. She was afraid that it would be too late. She didn’t want to drink Chinese medicine at noon. Now she has a psychological shadow...
