Chapter 183 Getting Married

Old General Mu was born in Orion, and really relied on his military achievements to make a name for himself. His son was only two years old when he went to the battlefield, and his son had grown up when he returned after more than ten years in the army. His wife passed away a long time ago, and his son barely survived by begging for food and hunting in the mountains with the occasional donations from Mrs. Mu's family. Mrs. Mu who has engaged.

So the Mu family has the lowest status among all the generals of the same rank, and Mrs. Mu has always felt that her daughter has been neglected when she is with Cao Keyuan and others. She doesn't want her daughter to be wronged like this, but her daughter has very few friends.

A smile appeared on the corner of Mrs. Mu's mouth. Fortunately, now her daughter has found a new friend who came from the countryside like them. Although her status will be higher than theirs in the future, judging by her current behavior, she will not look down on them.

Listening to her daughter's narration, although she is a bit too straightforward and has no scheming, she has a good heart. The most important thing is that she can listen to her daughter. During this time, her daughter has become more cheerful.

Not long after, Cao Keyuan angrily dragged Peng Ying out of Dingyuan General's Mansion, "Yingrong is going to find Liang Yimei, why didn't she come to us? Let's go, let's go to them too!"

Peng Ying lowered her head in thought, and seeing Cao Keyuan's heartless look, she gave her a hug, "Did you forget that we had a bad fight with her at the last banquet? What are we going to look for now?"

"It's been several months, who still remembers that?" Cao Keyuan said indifferently, "What's more, we don't usually fight around, it will be fine after a while."

Peng Ying secretly rolled her eyes, it's because we are good friends, okay?How many times have we met Liang Yimei?
What she cares most about is how Mu Yingrong and Liang Yimei got together. Since the last time, Mu Yingrong and them have rarely been together. Usually, if she is not invited, she will not come. It was not the case before. Such.She was slightly displeased.

Just let Cao Keyuan get on the horse and head towards Liang's house, she wanted to see what Mu Yingrong would say!
At the beginning, Liang Yimei arranged the mansion near the place where the general lived, in order to get better information about Liang Yimu. It was only two streets away from here, but he arrived soon.

Liang Yimei and Mu Yingrong were very surprised when they received them, Mu Yingrong didn't think too much, just thought they were also here to add makeup to Liang Yimei, seeing that they came in empty-handed, doubts flashed in their eyes.He just didn't say anything, and after greeting the two of them, they sat down separately.

Peng Ying saw it clearly, and when she saw that Cao Keyuan was about to complain, she pulled her back.They and Mu Yingrong have known each other since they were young. She knows her temperament and is not very scheming. Is there anything she doesn't know about it?

"Why did you come here today?" Peng Ying asked her in a low voice.

Didn't you come to add makeup to Liang Yimei?She glanced at Liang Yimei who was ordering her servants to make tea, and replied in a low voice: "Mother asked me to add makeup to Sister Liang, she is going to get married in the future... Aren't you ordered to add makeup to Sister Liang?" ?”

Liang Yimei is about to get married, and usually she won't come out to meet guests at this time, but it's different when adding makeup. Cao Keyuan and her two called her name to see Liang Yimei as soon as they came, so Mu Yingrong thought that Cao Keyuan came to Liang Yimei just like her makeup.

Peng Ying felt embarrassed, nodded and said, "We came on horseback, we arrived first, and the things are behind."

Cao Keyuan also heard it, but she still muttered: "Then you should invite us to come together..."

Peng Ying hurriedly gave her a hand. They had only met Liang Yimei a few times, and usually the ones who put on make-up were either relatives or friends, or people they had been in contact with. There was nothing wrong with Mu Yingrong not calling them.

While turning her head, she took advantage of Mu Yingrong's inattention and blinked at her close servant girl. That servant girl had been with Peng Ying for many years, so she naturally knew what Peng Ying was thinking, so she retreated quietly.

A Tao came in with tea, and when she saw her, she asked curiously, "Why did the girl come out?"

The maid smiled shyly and said: "Our people are still behind. Just now Miss Cao and my lady left in a hurry. I don't know if they have arrived. Miss Cao waited impatiently. My lady asked me to go and see the day before yesterday."

Presumably the makeup for the young lady was left behind, she smiled understandingly: "Then go, girl, do you want me to send a little maid to serve?"

"No, no need," she refused, "No need, no need." She refused, "I don't think it's too far to come here, so I came back after a while, why bother them?"

A Tao went in with tea. The yard Liang Yimei bought was three-entry. With so many people added and Liang Yimei’s dowry piled up, the whole house seemed a bit crowded. She only apologized after ordering people to remove the things. He smiled at Cao Keyuan and Peng Ying: "I'm making you laugh. I don't even remember the people coming and going at home these few days."

"Are you going to get married?" Cao Keyuan asked curiously.

"Yes, I invite you to come to watch the ceremony that day." Since everyone came to the door in person, if she didn't make a gesture, she would gain another reputation for being small-minded.

"Okay," Cao Keyuan was a little happy. When Princess Ping got married, she was still young and didn't have many memories. She was still very enthusiastic about such things. "I will definitely be there that day, and Xiaoying and Yingrong will also come!" The matter of asking the teacher to inquire about the crime was forgotten.

The higher the status of a woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the later she was married. The emperor's daughter is usually around 20 years old, while someone from a family like Cao Keyuan usually gets married. Princess Ping was 16 years old when she got married, which is relatively early, but because she is the emperor Given the marriage, and marrying into the royal family, the Cao family has no complaints.

In rural areas, women usually get married after they reach the hairpin. Even if they marry earlier, they are still 14 years old, but they are also required to enter the bridal chamber after the woman has reached the age of hairpin.

After three cups of tea, Peng Ying's maid brought people in with two boxes all the way in. She stopped slightly, calmed her breath, let her flushed face recede, and smiled, signaling the people behind to wait. , I lifted the curtain and went in.

When Peng Ying saw her maid came back, her almost stiff smile suddenly became more natural. She lowered her head and took a sip of tea, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up.

But Cao Keyuan didn't realize the difference yet, she still told Liang Yimei about the story of the Pengzhou Jiedu envoy who promised a thousand dollars for a stunning brothel girl, and regardless of her family's opinion, brought her into the backyard. She said enviously: "... Such a woman is really a legend, she can make a man fall in love with her so much, I heard that many people spent a lot of money at that time, just to see her and listen to her play..."

Liang Yimei lowered her eyes, but she looked down on Pengzhou Jiedushi in her heart. He made such a commotion, where did he put his wife and children?Such a man... Liang Yimei's eyes flashed irony.

Peng Ying put down the teacup and said, "Our things have arrived, Sister Liang, let's ask them to bring them in and have a look."

Seeing the two women bringing in two boxes, Cao Keyuan didn't react for a while.

Liang Yimei glanced at the confused Cao Keyuan, feeling a little pity for her.He nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."

……

Liang Yimei saw the two sets of jewelry in the box after sending the person away, smiled silently, and said to A Tao who was following: "Put it away, it's a good thing too!"

A Tao didn't understand the young lady's mocking tone, but A Li's eyes flashed brightly.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day before the marriage. Liang Yilin asked for leave to stay at home. Everyone in the household department knew that his sister was going to get married, so they didn't make things difficult for him and let him go back.

The Chen family and the Dong family also moved to the Liang family, Liang Yilin, Zheng Jue and others were in charge of the outside, while the inner courtyard could only be handed over to the Chen family and others.

Sitting under the lamp, Mrs. Dong was skillfully calculating. When she saw Liang Yimei coming in with a snack, she quickly took it and said, "Why aren't you sleeping? You have to get up early tomorrow." She remembered how tired she looked on the day she got married, He pushed her and said, "You will be busy tomorrow."

"I can't sleep, so I'll take a look."

Dong smiled understandingly, "Then lie on the bed and close your eyes, and fall asleep after a while."

"Then I'll go back first."

Mrs. Dong sent her out, but her nanny looked at her and said incomprehensibly, "Grandma, why don't you take the opportunity to tell me about the uncle?"

Dong frowned, "Is this the time to talk about this?" She looked at her sharply, "Don't tease the uncle, he is my younger brother, I naturally take his affairs to heart, let him follow tomorrow His brother-in-law is learning something later, and after everyone has been busy for a while, even if I don't mention it, his brother-in-law will take the initiative to mention it. If I know that you have taught him badly..."

The nanny shuddered, lowered her head, and answered "yes" in a low voice.

Liang Yimei returned to the room, but to her surprise, Fifth Grandma was waiting for her in her room. Seeing her coming, she took her hand and reproached her: "It's so late, why are you still running out?"

Liang Yimei asked curiously, "Why is Fifth Grandma here?" Didn't Fifth Grandma have already fallen asleep at this time?

Fifth Grandma blushed when she thought of her purpose of coming, but it was not very obvious under the dim light.Liang Yimei didn't care too much.

She pulled Liang Yimei to sit down by the bed, hesitating for a long time, looking at Liang Yimei's more curious eyes, she couldn't speak anymore, so she took out a box from her arms and stuffed it into Liang Yimei's arms, "Look for yourself , remember, you must watch it when you are alone."

Without waiting for Liang Yimei to speak, she left in a hurry.

Could it be something that Fifth Grandma posted on her?Liang Yimei was about to open it, but felt that Fatty and Huihui in the space seemed to be rebelling, so she quickly put down the box, closed the doors and windows, and stepped into the space.

Mrs. Chen took only a little maid and walked towards Liang Yimei's hesitantly, just in time to see Grandma Fifth come out in a hurry, for some reason, she breathed a sigh of relief, her complexion recovered, she turned around and said softly to the little maid: "Let's go back."
