On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 246 Marriage Letter
Letters of engagement were exchanged and marriage letters were written.

I don’t know whether the elders of the Jiang family were in a hurry to have a grandson, or whether Jiang Yu was in a hurry to get a wife, so they came to accept the lottery, but the date of application was even set.

The wedding day is scheduled for the sixth day of February.

The Xiao family arranged a sumptuous lunch table.

Unfortunately, Mr. Jiang was invited away by the doctor from Huichun Hall before he had even had a few glasses of wine.

This time, Jiang Jiake didn't dig around. The betrothal gift included a hundred taels of gold and several boxes of various gold and silver jewelry and jewelry.

There were also cloths, tea leaves, wedding cakes, etc., which were loaded with several loads.

After receiving the list of betrothal gifts, most families will leave some behind.

But now that Boss Xiao had some money in his pocket, he was generous. Except for the wedding cakes and tea leaves, he also carried all the gold to Xiao Xiu's room.

If it were placed in their room, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist taking a few gold ingots.

Who can resist the temptation of gold?

On the other side, Mrs. Xiao greeted the Wu family, the Lin sisters and two grandsons, and carried the wedding cake and herself to give to the neighbors.

With this gift, everyone would become familiar with each other, and no one was too surprised when they found out that the newly moved girl from the Xiao family was promised to the young host of Huichun Hall.

After all, if they were not relatives, how could the Jiang family give up such a good house for the Xiao family to live in?
Although Jiang Yu is a widower, he is very talented and good-looking.

The most important thing is that the family is wealthy. Mrs. Jiang is old, and she likes literature. They all wish they could give their daughter to Jiang Yu, so that she can take care of the house.

It's a pity that Jiang Yu is too picky, and even the chance encounter that he put a lot of effort into failed to attract his attention.

To be honest, some people doubted whether he had a habit of cutting off his sleeves. They thought that his son was Qingjun, so they couldn't help but pay more attention to him, for fear of going astray.

Therefore, it was inevitable that someone would say something sour: "Let your eldest daughter go out and walk around more, so that we can see what kind of fairy beauty can make Jiang Shaodong's family be so anxious to propose marriage."

"That's right, I see the Jiang family carried a lot of boxes in?"

"Sister, why do you have two matchmakers coming to your family in succession?"

"How many gifts have the Jiang family prepared?"

When Mrs. Xiao heard people saying congratulations, she happily thanked them and said she would move around more in the future.

If she heard people say those mean words, she would pretend she didn't understand them.

Anyway, seeing other people's envious and jealous looks made her feel very happy.

No one can stop her from showing off.

Back to the subject, at home, the matchmaker, who was full and full of food and drinks, winked at Old Mrs. Jiang: The happy event has been decided, the wine has been drunk, and the food has been eaten. It’s time for us to go, right?
She was worried that Jiang Yu would forget to go home if she didn't remind her.

Matchmaker Jiang goes to Jiang Yu's house several times throughout the year, but she has never seen Jiang Yu be so attentive, smile so well, and talk so well.

Look at him, he's like a butterfly. One moment he goes to his father-in-law's mother-in-law's place to talk to her with a smile, and the next moment he hangs around Xiao Xiu.

He is just like a young boy who has never been married, which makes people look down on him.

Mrs. Jiang liked to see her grandson looking so energetic, so she smiled at Matchmaker Jiang and said, "Ping'er, you've worked hard today. You go back and do your work first, and we'll sit down for a while!"

Matchmaker Jiang certainly had a clever tongue: "Auntie is so kind. She allows me to be happy. I really wish for it."

Xiao Xiao also spoke: "Excuse me, aunt, where did the matchmaker live before?" Today, my family almost suffered a big loss.

If Xiao Xiao is still scared when she thinks about it now, she will definitely have to find someone to settle the score.

She did know where the He family was, but she wanted to force Matchmaker Wang to lead them to the He family.

Otherwise, she was worried that the He family would be beaten down.

Matchmaker Jiang's eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to say, "Matchmaker Wang lives over there on West Street, behind He Jiamee's Shop."

Boss Xiao also understood his youngest daughter's plan, so he stood up and said, "Aunt, my wife, please sit down for a moment while San'er and I go out."

Old Mrs. Jiang's tone was gentle, but she could not be refused: "I will go with you, too, to see which family can't get along with us."

Previously, the Jiang family had prepared to go out early, but Matchmaker Jiang didn't come to the door. Jiang Yu asked several guards to look for her separately.

Finally, the person was found from Matchmaker Jiang's house.

It turned out that Matchmaker Jiang had already gone out and was about to arrive at Jiang's house when she was bumped into by a woman carrying water.

In this winter, the feeling of coldness in the heart is not good. Jiang Matchmaker didn't want to marry the Lord of Hell, so she could only run home to change clothes and ask her daughter-in-law to make ginger tea for her.

Didn't this delay last for nearly half an hour?
At first, Matchmaker Jiang thought it was because of her bad luck, but when she came to Xiao's house and saw Matchmaker Wang, she knew in her heart that there was a villain at work.

Old Mrs. Jiang now understands in her heart that of course she has to come forward to ask for an explanation, otherwise if the news spreads, it will appear that the Jiang family has no temper.

They were just getting ready to go out, and Mrs. He and the others also came out crying.

As soon as Mrs. He entered the door, she saw the Xiao family and the Jiang family. After taking a deep breath, she knelt down in the yard neatly: "Mrs. Jiang, Mr. Xiao, it was only me who was deceived by lard, so I let the matchmaker Come and hire me.”

She had red eyes and a look of despair: "But my elder man was seriously injured and was lying there unconscious, still talking about Xiu'er. I really..."

She couldn't help but burst into tears: "It was my fault before, but my elder brother has always been thinking about Xiu'er in his heart."

"As long as you let Xiu'er in, I will immediately leave all the affairs of the bamboo shop to their young couple."

"I dare to swear in front of you that if I abuse my daughter-in-law in the future, I will die badly..."

The Xiao family were all very angry at first, but when they saw that Mrs. He, who was originally superior and superior, always felt that Xiao Xiu was superior to Mrs. He of the He family, kneeling there and crying, they didn't know what to say.

Mrs. Jiang was instantly unhappy.

Although she was indeed dissatisfied with this marriage before, now she feels that the Xiao family is not bad, the girls are courageous and have good archery skills.

To be honest, when the girls of the Xiao family took people to rescue them late at night, Mrs. Jiang seemed to understand why her son chased after others and pledged her body to them.

Now that it was her, she felt safe with Xiao Xiu.

Unexpectedly, the He family actually wanted to poach themselves?
"You're late," Mrs. Jiang raised her chin and snorted with a cold face and an arrogant look on her face: "Now Miss Xiao is my unmarried daughter-in-law. If you dare to mess around again, don't blame me for being rude. ”

Others were afraid of Inspector Zhao, but she was no longer afraid.

None of his son's in-laws are good, they are all big killers.

Besides, my husband showed his face in front of King Jin'an this time when he sent medicine to Yuhang.

There is also Uncle Ning's family, who are already working with the prince and seem to be about to have formal official positions.
