Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 674 Dajiang Returns
"A person's name is like a tree's shadow."

As a result, Xiao Changsuo also became an extremely popular bed-rolling boy. In just a few days, he received many red envelopes, and there were still many orders waiting for him in the first month of the year.

Good times always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the 29th day of the lunar year.

On this day, a family was going to marry a new daughter-in-law, but Gu Wenxuan also had serious work to do. He got up early in the morning and rushed to the ancestral hall to write couplets as invited.

Gu Erlang was also very busy. He had to go to the middle of the two ancestral halls early in the morning to start a day of free medical consultation with his master, Doctor Dong, and Doctor Song.

Gu Erzhu and Liu were also not idle. Gu Erzhu was trying his best to avoid suspicion and did not want to take on the role of clan elder, but he was still called to the ancestral hall.

Liu had to stay at home to prepare offerings and sacrificial supplies for tomorrow's ancestor worship. These things could not be handled by the old women and maids, and had to be handled by the mistress of the house.

Fortunately, my eldest daughter-in-law is here to help me this year.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finished their work at the manor, they hurried to the house in the village, and then went to the patriarch's house to see if there was anything they could help with.

The clan leader's wife is even busier. In addition to the offerings and supplies for ancestor worship at home, she also needs to do the logistics work for the ancestor worship ceremony at the ancestral hall tomorrow.

This year a new clan leader takes office, which is even more difficult. Fortunately, the clan leader has no major faults, and the position of clan leader has always been inherited by the eldest son of the clan leader's lineage.

Therefore, Gu Wenyu's mother, He, who had always helped her mother-in-law before, was able to do her job well but was busy but not chaotic with the help of her mother-in-law.

They said they were going to the clan leader's house to see if there was anything they could help with, mainly to go through a ceremony to show that the women of the second branch of the Gu family would obey the arrangements of the clan leader.

As for the pregnant Zhou Banxia, ​​she doesn't have to run around or attend social events with her big belly. She and Xiao Suocheng are the two most idle people in the family.

In the words of her mother-in-law, there is still a long way to go, and she will have plenty of time to wash sacrificial utensils and prepare offerings to the ancestors in the future, so she can take a break this year.

Although she said she was taking a break, she actually had a lot of things to do. It’s just that she didn’t need to use her hands, she just needed to use her brain and her mouth.

He summoned all the managers and asked them to do the last work of the year. With the arrival of New Year's Eve, Dajiang finally got home in the evening of that day.

"How to say?"

"Don't worry."

"What's the hurry!"

Zhou Yujiang, who hurriedly washed up at home and rushed to the manor, and Zhou Sishun, who told his son to wait until they got to the manor to talk about what they had to say, said it in unison.

It makes Zhou Banxia happy.

"I am worried about my brother. If it's someone else, Dad, do you think I am anxious? Have you seen my uncle and aunt? Has my eldest sister-in-law come back with my aunt?"

"Yes. But my sister-in-law, my brother told me that she was pregnant and her family was worried about her coming back to give birth, so they didn't let her come back with them.

Big brother is still worried about you, and originally wanted to ask second brother and me to come back first since he couldn't leave. As for those things, I told him not to worry, big uncle has arranged everything."

Oh, don’t call me sir anymore.

"And my aunt, I also advised you to wait until my sister-in-law gave birth before coming back. Otherwise, running back and forth between the capital and here, who can bear the pain?"

At this point, Zhou Yujiang blushed with embarrassment, "That's right, Third Sister, my aunt may not be free in March or April next year. During that time, she may still be in the capital."

Zhou Banxia's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Zhou Sishun. Zhou Sishun nodded, "It's done, it's done, your brother is lucky, the girl told your aunt that you are very good, and that our family gets along well.

Before your aunt came back, your uncle Qi and his wife said that if their daughter had no objection, the marriage would be settled, and they also brought back a token of love for your aunt. "

Zhou Yujiang quickly took out something and took out a jade pendant, and handed it to Zhou Banxia with both hands, "This is it. I also gave the agarwood brand I had on me to uncle."

Zhou Banxia felt relieved all of a sudden. The fact that Dajiang took out the agarwood pendant that she and her husband had asked him to wear before showed that Dajiang also liked Huijie'er.

Otherwise, Dajiang would not have taken out the pendant, which he loved so much and never took off from his neck except to take a bath, but the jade pendant given to him before leaving.

"It's good jade, and the little girl is even better." At this point, Zhou Banxia finally dared to praise Hui Jie'er based on his own personal feelings, "You must cherish it, Dajiang.

Before, Third Sister was afraid that if she said too much, it would mislead you. No matter how much Third Sister loves the girl, after all, she is looking for you to spend the rest of your life with her.

I have the same idea as my father. Compared with fame, wealth and other material things, it is more important for you to have a wife who you like and other people like you too.

Of course, it would be better if you could have a father-in-law you could rely on, and my father and I would be happy to do so. This is not snobbery, it is human nature to seek good fortune and avoid disaster.

My third sister is not as noble as you think. If Uncle Qi was not a junior fellow disciple whom my uncle trusted, my uncle would not have proposed this marriage. My third sister is also attracted by this point.

Your marriage is not difficult. It can even be said that since you became a student on government stipend before you even reach adulthood, it is easy for you to find a daughter of a richer family than ours.

But Third Sister has to worry about whether your uncle can protect you before you grow up, once you become like Lord Zhao, and Uncle Qi is unintentionally the best candidate.

You understand what Third Sister means, right? If you marry him, you won't have to worry about him parting ways with his uncle one day. Besides, his sons are still young, so it will be of certain benefit to you.

Similarly, Uncle Qi also had these considerations in mind. He hoped that if you could rise to prominence in the future, you could complement his sons, and that's why he was optimistic about you.

There is no need to think about this too early. Even if we don't marry, just because he is my uncle's junior apprentice and we have a close relationship, we can't help but lend a hand if something happens."

Zhou Yujiang listened quietly and nodded heavily.

Still silent? Zhou Si glanced at his son and said, "Your Third Sister must remember these words. Your Uncle Qi treats your father as his brother.

As for us, we should not be snobbish and should seek good fortune and avoid disaster, but we should not be ungrateful and forget that someone has betrothed their precious daughter to you..."

It's over.

It is human nature to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. Her father was trying to warn her, fearing that she would become too proud. Zhou Banxia immediately covered her mouth and looked at her father pitifully.

"... he has no self-awareness and thinks he's so great just because he's achieved a little success—" Zhou Si was halfway through his words when he glanced at his daughter.

laugh!
Dad, you are going to laugh!

"You have to remember this. When you are ready to give gifts and betrothal gifts, don't mess around with me. If you dare to mess around with the money again, I will beat you up!"

Zhou Banxia asked with a bold smile: "Then we won't give a betrothal gift?"

Dajiang immediately informed, "Our father asked Xiaohe to write in the letter to uncle that if the marriage is successful, he will not ask for any dowry, because she is his biological daughter.

After reading the letter, my uncle was overjoyed. He said he would hand the letter to Uncle Qi in person. Uncle Qi would have no choice but to prepare a smaller dowry. "

"Hahaha……"
