The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 441 Wang Family
Within two days, Liu Wen led his team to ship out another batch of goods.

The food workshop was also busy with the workers paying their wages.

Nowadays, let alone Xiahe Village, there are many families who have become well-off thanks to the Li family.

There are many happy events in the surrounding villages. In this golden autumn, red silk can be seen everywhere.

So, the next day, Shi Liu went with Old Man Li and his family to attend the wedding of the granddaughter of the sixth uncle in the clan.

They eat from both sides because Xiju married someone from the same village.

Normally, only two people from a family could go to a banquet, but when Shiliu's family held a banquet, the whole family was invited, and this rule was formed in the village. Whenever there was a wedding, everyone in the village would come!
Nowadays, there is really no shortage of food. Unlike in the past, when there were eight dishes for eight people at a table, and the dishes did not need to be washed after the table was cleared, now there are eight dishes for eight people at a table, and leftovers can be collected after the table is cleared. Seats are no longer like fighting for them.

Pomegranate watched these changes and nodded continuously. This is what it means for every household to be well-off!
The next day, Matchmaker Jin came again and gave Li Ji and Song the list of betrothal gifts prepared by the Fan family for them to review. If there was anything wrong, they were to point it out.

When discussing the marriage before, Song never mentioned how the betrothal gift would be asked for. She knew that the Fan family was well-mannered and would naturally let the matchmaker come to ask.

But unexpectedly, the Fan family directly sent a gift list. This rule was fully followed.

Song didn't know many words, so she gave the gift list to Shi Liu and asked her to read it.

Shi Liu took the gift list and looked at it, and also widened her eyes.

The Fan family’s gift list… is quite generous.

Shi Liu felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Song was urging him, and Shi Liu came back to his senses and quickly started to recite.

"... a shop in the Baduan Hutong of Luoshui City... a house with two entrances in the Sitiao Hutong of Luoshui City... a shop in the Dongshi of Luoshui City... four sets of pure gold head ornaments... a betrothal gift of six hundred and sixty taels..."

When the Song family members heard this, they also opened their mouths in surprise, their eyeballs bulging out of their sockets.

"How much do you think the betrothal gift is? Six hundred and sixty taels!"

Not to mention the jewelry in the shop, and the other customary wedding cakes and fruits, the bride price alone was enough to shock the Song family.

Think about it, the betrothal money she gave to the Lin family was only thirty taels, and the Huang family also gave thirty taels a month ago. No matter how much wealth the family has now, it should be fair. What would Lin think if she gave more?
But the Fan family gave so much right from the start, it shows that they really value their daughter!
After coming back to her senses, Song couldn't help but feel happy. The more betrothal gifts the Fan family gave, the more it proved that her daughter was good, right?
There was no reason for her to push away the betrothal gifts. All of them would be given back to Shi Liu anyway, and she would not keep any of them.

When Matchmaker Jin asked them if they had any dissatisfaction and told them to just tell her, the gift list could still be added to or modified, Song smiled and said: No problem.

The pomegranate, on the other hand, has a taste that is hard to describe.

Being treated so seriously and with a heart not made of stone, who can remain indifferent?

Hearing from Li Rongzhang that Fan Jin would leave for the provincial capital early the next morning, Shi Liu got up early, took a carriage out of the village, and soon caught up with Fan Jin's carriage.

At that time, Bafang, the driver, heard the sound of wheels behind him and looked back, and immediately shouted, "Sir, it's Miss Pomegranate! She's here to see you off!"

The curtain of the carriage was immediately opened, and a head popped out. Fan Yu, who was on this side, saw the carriage behind and took the initiative to tease Fan Jinlai.

Fan Jin on the other side also grinned, looking extremely happy.

When the carriages drew side by side, the curtain was lifted, revealing a girl in a pomegranate red dress. Fan Jin sat up straighter, but his eyes were almost glued to the carriage opposite.

"Shi Liu, are you going to the market too?" He wanted to say, "Are you here to see me off?" but felt embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Shi Liu said, "I'll see you off."

Immediately, Fan Jin grinned, and that smile made Shi Liu's eyes dazzled.

Fan Yu sat next to Fan Jin, looking here and there, covering his mouth and laughing. With Fan Yu around, some things were hard to say.

The two cars drove side by side and moved forward.

Soon, we arrived at Dafengji Pier.

Fan Yu came along to see Fan Jin off for a while and then drove the car back after that. Knowing that the two of them must have something to talk about, he didn't stay long. He smiled and waved to Fan Jin, then drove away first.

On the dock where the cool breeze was blowing, the clothes were fluttering in the wind.

Fan Jin looked at Shi Liu intently, waiting to see what she would say.

After a moment, Shi Liu just said: "Take care of yourself and study hard."

Fan Jin nodded immediately, "I will definitely work hard, and wait for next year's provincial examination, and then I will take a chance, and I will try to get a job after we get married. Then, I will take you to the position... You can do whatever you want..."

Shi Liu understood what he meant. Since they were getting married in a fake way, they should stay far away from home to avoid being discovered. If he became an official, as a newlywed couple, Mrs. Lu would probably be eager for her to follow him to his post.

"If you have any questions, just go to Tongwanzhai and find Shopkeeper Wu. If you have any letters from home, you can ask him to deliver them."

She originally said that if Fan Jin wanted to write a letter to his family, he could ask Manager Wu for help.

But she didn't expect that Fan Jin kept it in mind. From then on, he wrote her two letters every month to talk about daily trivialities, no matter how big or small, just like a husband reporting his movements to his wife at home. The only thing he lacked was a mobile phone. Otherwise, wouldn't he have called her three times a day?
But Fan Jin wrote two letters every month without interruption, and over time it became a habit.

Later on, Pomegranate realized that habit is a terrible thing.

But now, watching Fan Jin board the ship and waving at her vigorously while standing on the deck, Shi Liu couldn't help but smile and raised her hand to wave at him.

Only when the boat was far away did Shi Liu turn around and not get on the carriage. He just walked, and in just a few dozen steps he arrived at the Datong Warehouse.

When Ding Fuguang saw her coming, he smiled heartily and quickly asked He An to make some tea, and then went to buy some snacks that Shi Liu liked.

The father and daughter went to sit in the backyard. The leaves of the big tree behind them quietly turned yellow and fell down, covering the ground and even the stone table. It was a unique scenery.

Shi Liu stretched out his hand and flicked away the leaves that had just fallen on the table. He asked, "How much do foster father know about the Wang family?"

"Wang family?"

Seeing that her adoptive father had misunderstood, Shi Liu quickly added, "It's the Wang family in Xinglinfang, the capital city."

Ding Fuguang thought she was asking about his old employer, the Wang family. When he heard it was the Wang family, he knew a little about it.

"The Wang family of Xinglinfang and the Third Young Master are not from the same clan, they just happen to have the same surname Wang. I heard that the main branch of the Wang family is in Hezhou, and has been practicing medicine for generations. They are also well-known in the medical field. As early as the previous dynasty, most of the doctors in the Imperial Hospital were from the Wang family. The current director of the Imperial Hospital is the younger brother of the head of the main branch of the Wang family.

The Wang family of Xinglinfang is just a branch, but it is also very famous. Their Tongxing Pharmacy is spread all over Bingzhou, and this generation has produced an acupuncture genius. "

"But your last name is Wang and your name is Yan?" Shi Liu asked hurriedly.

Ding Fuguang nodded, "It's him! Everyone says he is very talented in medicine. He is a rare talent in the Wang family, including the main branch!"

"Why are you suddenly asking about this Wang family?"

Pomegranate shook her head, "I'm just curious, just asking."

What my adoptive father said was similar to what I got from Liu Dongjia, but Liu Dongjia gave more details.

For example, the Wang family was so powerful in the previous dynasty that they married into the royal family.

As luck would have it, Prince Yude had a concubine who was a daughter of the Wang family.
