Plane of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 165

Qin Mansion.

There were six loads of presents in the living room, all sealed with red paper, with big happy characters written on them.The matchmaker was dressed festively and stood aside waiting.

Mrs. Qin handed Qin Guan the "Invitation Date" post sealed in red paper, with the words "Forecast for a good date" written on the post.

Qin Wei stood beside him with a happy expression on his face.

Qin Wei has been engaged since she was a child, and she took Qin Guan to secretly see his fiancée at the beginning, she is a very beautiful and gentle person, and later invited Miss Gao to enjoy the lanterns and watch the fireworks, the two have already had a relationship.

In fact, he had long thought of getting married.

Six Rituals: Na Cai, Asking Names, Najib, Na Zheng, Asking for a Date, and Greeting, Today is the day of Qin Wei's wedding "asking for a date".In layman's terms, it is to tell the woman the date the man has set for marriage, and let the woman know that we will come to welcome the bride on this day.

The date was set by Taoist Liu of Baopu Taoist Temple, the eighth day of August, said to be the best day of the year.

Today, Qin Guan went out to deliver the invitation cards.

The Gao family is also a family of officials, and their home is in Hangzhou. They passed the Jinshi examination in the same year as Qin Zhang, and their relationship is considered irreversible.Qin Wei's father-in-law is currently serving as a doctor in the court, and he is a fifth-rank loose official. A few years ago, the old lady of the Gao Mansion was driving a crane, and Mr. Gao Ding You was at home. Now the funeral period has passed, and the court has not yet arranged a new position.

In ancient times, filial piety was emphasized. After the funeral of parents, children were required to mourn for three years according to the etiquette. During this period, marriages were not allowed, and auspicious ceremonies were not expected. This is why Qin Wei's marriage dragged on for so long.Now that the filial piety period is over, Mrs. Qin is in a hurry to arrange the marriage of her eldest son.

Because the elder son doesn't want to get married, the younger son can't do it either, which will delay her from holding the grandson. The old lady of the Qin family started talking about it, hoping to see her great-grandson in her lifetime.

Mrs. Qin read it again, and felt that the preparation was almost done, so she told Qin Guan that it could be sent there.

Today's gifts are just some ordinary gifts. The betrothal gift for engagement was sent as early as when Najib and Nazheng were in charge. Today is mainly to send invitations. As for gifts, there are no specific requirements.

Ordinary people, maybe send a load of pastries, cosmetics and powder incense boxes, etc., it depends on the situation of the rich family.

Of course, there is also a saying that the more you give, the more the man will value it.

It has always been true.

The gifts prepared by the Qin family today included several pairs of jaspers, a few phoenix hairpins, cakes, and silk brocade.

Qin watched it, and said to Luo Yi: "Bring the box here."

The Luoyi people handed the box in their hands to Qin Guan, Qin Guan handed it to Qin Wei and said: "Big brother's wedding, our Qin family's gift can't be light, take this box of jewelry with you."

Qin Zhang took the jewelry box, looked at Qin Guan and opened it, and everyone in the hall took a deep breath, and the matchmaker next to him even exclaimed: "Oh, my God, I have lived for so many years , I’ve never seen such a beautiful pearl necklace before, ouch, it’s a complete set.”

Mrs. Qin was also very surprised.

Inside the box is a chain of five small pearls, with a few thumb-sized pink pearls hanging underneath, which looks very gorgeous and is very suitable for festive occasions.There are two earrings next to them, both of which are thick pink pearls with small pearl tassels underneath.

Qin Wei said: "Second brother, this set of jewelry is very expensive, so you should keep it for yourself."

Qin Guan smiled and said: "I let Jinyulou have a look, and the bid is 2 guan."

Everyone gasped again, and Qin Guan continued: "This is a gift from me to elder brother's wedding, elder brother, in ten days, I will go to Xiongzhou to take up my post, and I will definitely not be able to participate in elder brother's wedding, younger brother I can only send congratulatory gifts first."

Since Qin Guan said so, Qin Wei is not easy to refuse, and giving it to the bride is not the same as giving it to him.

"By the way, big brother, I said I would give you a different courtyard. After I left, the original courtyard became vacant, and it happened to be given to you. Then you and your wife can stay in the other courtyard for a while."

Qin Guan gave another big gift.

After everything was ready, Qin Guan led the people out.

Seeing Qin Guan go out, Mrs. Qin was a little annoyed at her youngest son, even if he made some money in business, he couldn't be so extravagant.The main thing is that tens of thousands of items are given away as soon as they are said, and she feels a little distressed.

The Luoyi people stepped forward, supported Mrs. Qin's arm, and said lightly: "Mother-in-law, the husband not only prepared gifts for the future sister-in-law, but also prepared jewelry for you, the old lady, and the second wife. Use it when you get married."

Madam Qin's eyes lit up.

"Guan'er is extravagant, you have to remind me from time to time." Mrs. Qin said.

"Sister-in-law is capable. He said that if a man knows how to earn money, he also knows how to spend it. There is no future for being petty." The Luoyi people helped Mrs. Qin walk to the backyard.

Mrs. Qin scolded with a smile: "He, he has a lot of crooked reasoning since he was a child."

In Mrs. Qin's room, Luo Yi asked Yunxiang and Biao'er to take out the gift box prepared by Qin Guan. After opening it, there was also a set of pearl jewelry inside. The pearls in this set of jewelry were all golden. Qin Guan had given them to them before. Mrs. Qin has a golden pearl necklace, but compared with the current set, it is much worse. Mrs. Qin likes it very much.

Then Mrs. Qin sent the old lady a set of white pearl necklaces, the kind that can be wrapped around the neck three times, and for Aunt Pan, a set of white pearl necklaces, which are also very beautiful. Madam's set is about two grades worse.

But even so, Aunt Pan couldn't be happier, this is the best and most expensive jewelry in her life, and she still thought about giving Yupei a wedding gift when she got married.

Unexpectedly, the Luoyi people immediately took out a gold pearl necklace and hung it around Yupei's neck.

Qin Guan rode a horse and brought the post delivery team to Gao's house. As soon as he appeared at the interface, the Gao's house set off firecrackers, crackling and smashing the red paper all over the floor. It was very festive and lively.

If it is a general invitation card, the woman's family will send someone to wait at the door, and wait for someone to come and welcome them in. But today, it is Qin Guan who is sending the invitation card. Unfortunately, he is too young to have unlimited opportunities in the future.

Qin Guan personally came to deliver the invitation, the Gao family naturally felt very honored, and naturally welcomed him with a big gift.

As soon as Qin Guan got off his horse and was about to go in, Mr. Gao came out wearing a uniform, with a smile on his face, Qin Guan hurriedly greeted him and called him uncle, Mr. Gao stepped forward to help him, "Nephew, please hurry up and get up." , let's talk inside."

When they came to the living room, Qin Guan sent an invitation letter, and the Gao family accepted it happily. Afterwards, the two sides chatted enthusiastically. They were both people in the officialdom, so naturally they would not be cold.

Qin Guan originally wanted to go back, but Gao's family was willing to let him go, leaving Qin Guan and others to eat at Gao's house before going back.

After Qin Guan left, Mrs. Gao's family opened the gift and screamed out when she saw the pearl necklace.

"Oh, this gift is too expensive, at least it's worth tens of millions."

Lao Gao took the jewelry and looked at it, thought for a while and said: "In the dowry prepared for my daughter, there are [-] acres of high-quality paddy fields outside the city."
