Eldest daughter

Chapter 483
As soon as the news that General Xuanwu appointed the young lady of the Fan family as his official wife, everyone's eyes widened. Someone asked, Fan family, which Fan family is the Fan family that is so poor that they can't even afford servants? , the eldest daughter of the former Shaoqing Fan Zhiyuan of Honglu Temple.

This is really eye-popping. You need to know that the Fan family is really in decline, even worse than ordinary rich merchants, but the general of the fourth rank has decided on such a family. What's up?

No matter what the reason for the inside story is, this marriage is certain. The Fan family, which had been neglected for many years, suddenly became lively again.

The news of this marriage reached Emperor Jing's ears, Emperor Jing thought about it for a while, and said that it was a good relationship, and even gave him a Ruyi as a betrothal present, but now, no one thought about this marriage any more.

After receiving Zhao Dali's nod, Wang Yuaner's heart was relieved. Considering that the two of them are not young, as the saying goes, marrying a daughter-in-law is good for the new year, and Zhao Dali is going back to the Northwest. Great, but there is no way.

Wang Yuan'er sent Mrs. Jiang to Fan's house to talk about Xiang, saying that although the date is urgent, the three letters and six rituals will not be delayed.

The Fan family has such a good relationship, it is already high-ranking, naturally there is no reason why it shouldn't, especially the Fourth Master Yao of the Anyuan Marquis Mansion is eyeing, of course the sooner they get married, the better.

Fan Yuanniang was also a little anxious. If she married to the northwest, what would happen to her mother and brother? She didn't want to marry far away, but her mother said that she was a good relative who couldn't be found even with a lantern, so she helped her fix it while dragging her sick body. It is indeed my good fortune to be able to marry a man as famous as General Zhao.

Fan Yuanniang gritted her teeth and found Zhao Dali, expressing her worries in a timely manner.

Zhao Dali said casually: "If you want, you can take your future mother-in-law and uncle to the northwest. Perhaps in another place, your mother-in-law will grow better."

Fan Yuanniang was stunned for a moment, a little unbelievable, he married her alone, and married her whole family, and nodded with red eyes.

Go home and talk to Fan's mother, after persuasion, Fan's mother also agreed.

When the news spread to Wang Yuaner's side, she sighed, that's fine, the more people in the family, the more lively it will be, and it will be warmer if Dali thinks about it.

Now that the whole family is going to the Northwest with them, the marriage is even more compact, and the date of the ceremony is set in the marriage letter written in the eight characters.

For this reason, Zhao Dali specially went to the emperor to ask for grace, and he wanted to ask for leave to marry and return to the northwest to garrison, with Cui Yuan helping to speak, now in Dading in the northwest, marrying a daughter-in-law is also good for passing on the family line, Emperor Jing agreed.

The year was getting closer and closer, and the date of Zhao Dali's marriage and divorce was getting closer and closer. Wang Yuan'er was busy allocating people to help him decorate the new house, as well as buying betrothal gifts and banquets for people to eat, he was too busy.

On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaonian, after sweeping the kitchen stove and offering sacrifices to the kitchen prince, officially enters the New Year's celebration.

Cui's house was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and they were busy pasting up new peach charms and couplets, making everything look extremely festive.

Wang Yuan'er's stomach is already getting big, Cui Yuan is worried, and won't let her move around at will, let alone have someone around her, at least one person must be by her side, lest there is something that can't be called by anyone.

At home, Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Cheng had headaches for the family members, but Wang Yuaner, a big-bellied woman, was free to hide in the house, and only asked about Zhao Dali's marriage and Chu Ge'er's arrest of Zhou.

On New Year's Eve, the Cui family was led by the old man to offer sacrifices. The whole family had a reunion dinner and kept watch until the firecrackers sounded in the early morning, and it was considered a new year.

She didn't go out on the first day of the new year, and on the second day, Mrs. Cui took Cheng back to her natal family. On the third day, fourth day, and fifth day, she took her to various houses for New Year's wine.

Wang Yuaner's body was bulky, except for a trip back to Bali Hutong accompanied by Cui Yuan in the third year of junior high school, she never went out again on the grounds of keeping fit.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the Cui family invites New Year’s wine, and Brother Chu’s catch-up week is also scheduled for this day.

The long table was covered with red silk cloth, full of things, gold and silver jewellery, the four treasures of the study, inkstone inkstones, books, and a small sword abacus, etc., even Cui Yuan's official seal was on it.

Brother Chu, this little guy is wearing new clothes with a red lucky bag and a red hat. His little face is chubby, just like a doll, not to mention how cute he is.

Cheng looked at Chu Ge with envy. It would be great if he gave birth to a son as well.

Mrs. Cui pursed her lips slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Lan'er and Yan'er took the Four Treasures of the Study to tease Brother Chu who was sitting on the long table: "With the Four Treasures of the Study, you will be the number one scholar in the future!"

Mrs. Cui sneered.

"Take this, man, and become a great general in the future." Second Mrs. Song teased him with a small sword. Zhao Dali thought it was right, staring at Brother Chu tightly, as if wishing to put the sword in his arms rhythm.

"Take a golden abacus and become the richest businessman in the world." Song San joked, Cui Yuan gave him a white look.

Wang Yuan'er looked at it with a smile, and shouted: "Brother Chu, go and get your favorite one for mother, be good."

Brother Chu tilted his head, thought for a while, and quickly ran to the side where the gold and silver jewelry was placed on the table full of things, and grabbed a gold hairpin, everyone was stunned.

Mrs. Cui raised her lips in a sneer.

Unexpectedly, he caught the golden hairpin, climbed to Wang Yuan'er's side, and gave her the golden hairpin: "Mother, wear it."

Wang Yuan'er was very happy, the people present couldn't help flattering, he was even more proud when he heard it, he grabbed the things and gave them away one by one, finally he grabbed Cui Yuan's official seal and golden abacus and held them in his arms.

"What is this? Is my brother going to be an official in the household department in the future?" Someone said.

Wang Yuan'er smiled and sweetened him a few mouthfuls, which made him giggle.

Mrs. Cui looked at their mother and son, her eyes fell on Cui Yuan's big belly, her face was distorted, she stood up: "It's time to start the banquet."

Wang Yuan'er didn't care about her awkwardness. It wasn't a day or two for this mother-in-law to dislike their family.

……

The days passed quickly, and from the seventh day of the lunar new year, the lanterns in the capital were lit up one after another, and they would last until the fifteenth and sixteenth.

On the day of Shisan, Wang Yuan'er got up early to dress up. Today is the day when Zhao Dali got married. As a righteous sister, she should be there anyway.

After washing up and having breakfast, Cui Yuan personally accompanied her to General Xuanwu's mansion, a five-entry mansion bestowed by the emperor.

The house that Wang Yuan'er bought for Zhao Dali was never used, but she also gave him the title deed, saying that people who are married, have families, and property should be bought, and it was all bought with his money. .

Zhao Dali couldn't bear her intentions, so he had to accept it, and the house bestowed by the emperor became the new house for welcoming his relatives.

The servants had been prepared a long time ago. After discussing it with Zhao Dali, Wang Yuan'er called the grandfather's family to the house again, and helped greet the guests as a family member.

So when we arrived at the General's Mansion, the Fang family presided over it, but nothing serious happened.

Zhao Dali didn't have any relatives and friends, and he was also lonely and dull. Even when he got married, he didn't invite anyone, but this didn't stop him from coming to give gifts and drink wine, so there was a long line of carriages and horses in front of the house. Far.

When Cui Yuan arrived, he led Liang Yanting to help entertain the guests, Zhao Dali had already gone to greet the bride, and Wang Yuaner sat in the flower hall, chatting with the wives.

She is Cui Yuan's wife, and also the righteous sister of General Xuanwu, there are many people who want to curry favor with her.

"Ms. Cui's stomach is amazing. She looks like twins. She is really lucky. I heard that the eldest son is only one year old?"

Wang Yuan'er rubbed his belly and said, "Whether you are twins or not, you will not know until you are born."

Someone mentioned that the bride's dowry is not much, and it is said that she sold the house to make up for it?
Wang Yuan'er smiled lightly: "Families like ours are not those who live by looking at their daughter-in-law's dowry. Whether there is a dowry or not is the same. As for selling the house, my younger siblings and my family will follow General Xuanwu to raise the family in a few days." Go back to the northwest, sell it and sell it."

The lady was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to say much.

"The bride is home." Someone shouted outside, followed by crackling firecrackers.

"Come on, let's go to the hall too." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

A group of people walked around her.

The main hall of the worship hall was already full of people, Cui Yuan saw her coming, so he hurried over to support her personally, which made everyone jealous and envious.

It is said that Master Cui and Mrs. Cui are deeply affectionate and affectionate, and it is true.

The newlyweds came in with red silk, and the ritual officer was already ready to sing the salute. Seeing that the two had stood still, they began to pay homage.

Worship to heaven and earth, to the high hall, that is to say, to two empty chairs, followed by husband and wife to each other, and the ceremony is completed.

Wang Yuan'er looked at the couple, her eyes were slightly wet.

Zhao Dali's marriage was extremely lively. After Sanchao returned home, the New Year had already passed, and it was time for him to set off for the northwest.

Before leaving, he took his bride, Mrs. Fan, to meet Wang Yuan'er.

"Northwest is fixed, but war is always hard to say. In the past few years, I may not come back often." Zhao Dali looked at her and said.

Wang Yuan'er's eyes were red, and she said, "I know, I know, you've become a family now, and it would be nice to have someone to succeed you, and you must take care of yourself."

"You too." Zhao Dali knelt on the ground again and kowtowed three times to her, saying: "I, Zhao Dali, am most fortunate that you gave me money back then, and I Only today is the scenery. A sister for a day, a sister for life, from now on you will be my own sister, no one will bully you."

Seeing Mr. Fan kneeling down, Fan quickly followed suit. Hearing these words, his mind was shocked.

Wang Yuan'er's tears rolled down like balls, Cui Yuan quickly handed over the handkerchief, and glared at Zhao Dali.

"You don't want to recognize me, I still don't agree, get up!" Wang Yuan'er raised her hand, looked at Fan Shi again, and said, "I will rely on you to take care of Dali in the future, treat him better, it will not be easy for him."

Fan shi kowtowed and said respectfully: "My sister-in-law knows, please rest assured, elder sister."

On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Dali took his wife, mother-in-law and uncle, and returned to the northwest. Fifteen years later, he was appointed General Sima of Northwest Zhenguo, which is a later story.
