Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 277 Jun Wei's Engagement
"Mother, I got married years ago, can you be busy? This is a marriage, what about the house? Where does the second brother live? Will you stay with us?" Yuxian couldn't believe what she heard.

"The house was another reward from His Majesty, and everything has been tidied up. Your sister-in-law and I have already settled everything in the embroidery village. It's only Dongyue 26, and we will be engaged the day after tomorrow. .You are back, so stop running around and help out at home." Fang talked about some arrangements for the marriage.

After hearing this, Yu Xian nodded her head in agreement, this is a big deal.It was the first major event for the Tong family to come to the capital, so naturally it had to be done more grandly. "Mother, how much dowry do we have to give when we get engaged? My sister-in-law was in the town at that time, and it's incomparable to now. We can't be underestimated."

Xiaotong listened nearby, and said before Fang could speak: "Don't worry, these sisters, my mother and I have discussed it. With the current conditions of our family, it is not a problem to come up with some dowry. It’s different, when you get engaged, you have to send all the dowry gifts. My mother and I discussed it, the dowry gift is 1 taels, and the dowry gift is about 1 taels, so it’s okay, right?”

Yuxian did some calculations, and the total added up to 2 taels, which is not bad. "Second brother, you are much more married than your eldest brother was at that time. Sigh, marrying a daughter-in-law in this capital is quite expensive."

After hearing Yuxian's words, Junwei couldn't help but said: "I see how much Haoyu will spend to marry you, and it's not enough for all the boys in our family to marry their wives? Thinking about it this way, it seems that I don't spend too much. .”

"Junwei got married, so we split up, and happened to have our own house, so we don't need to be with us. When you get married, I will give you 2000 taels of silver, and I bought you a [-]-acre house in the suburbs of Beijing." land, plus two more shops. It’s considered as the settling expenses for you, and it’s over. It’s your own business to live well in the future, and the family doesn’t care about that much. The rest of us How many of you are like you, if you get married, all of them will be separated, and none of them will be in front of us." Yun Song talked about his future plans.Of the seven sons in the family, Jun Ye was married long ago, and if the remaining six were divided up in this way, they would also get a lot of money.Fortunately, the family still has some wealth in recent years, so this kind of division is still acceptable.

After hearing her father's plan, Yuxian agreed very much. There are too many brothers, and if they all live together, there will inevitably be some conflicts.Between sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law, you compare and compare with each other, so it won't be too calm.It's not as good as the arrangement of parents. If we stay farther away, the mutual affection between them will be stronger.The land and shops prepared for them by the family are enough to live on even if they don't do anything.

Fang Yun didn't make a sound all the time, and now he couldn't help nodding, "It's a good arrangement for elder sister and brother-in-law. If there are too many people in the family, there will always be some conflicts. It's better to separate so that we don't have to live together. It's all gone. Junwei is married, and I, as an uncle, also need to give gifts. Junwei, you are not young, you should live a good life when you get married, Miss Liu is a good one, but you have to take care of yourself Treat people."

After hearing Fang Yun's words, Jun Wei nodded quickly. "Don't worry, uncle, Junwei will definitely not let Yuehan down."

"Don't just talk about the children, you have to pay attention to yourself. How old you are, you should have found someone long ago. Now Junye has three children, and Junwei is going to get married. You don't even have a daughter-in-law. There is no shadow. Are you planning to never get married for the rest of your life?" Fang looked at Fang Yun, and began to worry about his marriage again.

Fang Yun smiled bitterly, afraid that everyone would say this to him, "Sister, I really don't want to get married, and besides, how old am I? If I find someone younger, I don't think it's right. Forget it, this That's all for the rest of my life, as long as there is Yuxian."

Seeing Fang Yun's appearance, Fang couldn't say anything more, "Forget it, make up your own mind, no one can force you on this matter. If there is a suitable woman, don't let her down and make a family." , can also be regarded as an explanation to the parents."

We talked about some engagements together again, and it happened that the kitchen came over and said that dinner was ready, so everyone was going to have dinner together.It happened that Haoyu brought someone here again. He heard that Yuxian had returned, so why don't you hurry over here?
Junye just laughed, "Haoyu, why do you come here every time in a hurry for the meal, I don't know, I thought you were here for the meal?"

"Brother, didn't I just come here to eat, I'm the only one in the prince's mansion, how can there be a lot of fun at home." Haoyu directly admitted the fact that he was eating, and everyone laughed.

After dinner, Haoyu naturally refused to leave.Seeing the situation, Fang and Yun Song acquiesced in allowing Yuxian and Haoyu to be together.The two returned to Yuxian's yard, sat down and chatted in Yuxian's study.The girls brought some snacks and tea, and then retreated outside the door.

The two sat on the small kang in the study room, separated by a small kang table, on which there were some snacks and tea.Yuxian told Haoyu some things about going out this time, especially Mannia. "If there is a chance in the future, I really want to see those overseas scenery."

After hearing this, Haoyu couldn't help frowning, and reached out to hold Yuxian's little hand. "I can tell you that without my company, you are absolutely not allowed to run so far. I don't worry."

After hearing Haoyu's words, Yuxian couldn't help sticking out her tongue and making a grimace.Seeing her playful look, Haoyu felt hot in his heart, his eyes darkened, and his voice was hoarse, "Yuxian, it's best not to have this expression in front of men, understand?"

Yuxian's face was hot. After all, she had experience in her previous life, and she really forgot just now that a girl really shouldn't be like that.Nodding his head, he said that he would not do so in the future.

Haoyu looked at the rosy glow on Yuxian's face, and couldn't help reaching out to touch that tender cheek.The delicate touch of his hands made his heart indulge in it. "Yuxian, when I reach the end of my filial piety, shall we get married? I really can't bear it for so long, I wish I could be with you now."

Yuxian's face seemed to be on fire, "Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to the Prince's Mansion. If you don't leave, the second elder brother will come to chase someone out later, so why not be more conscious." She said, Yuxian got off the kang and stood there waiting for Haoyu.

Haoyu also got off the kang and put on his shoes.Reaching out to hold Yuxian's hand, Yuxian fell into his arms as soon as she squeezed hard.Yuxian wanted to struggle, but was hugged tightly by Haoyu, "Don't move, just let me hug you."

Yuxian lay quietly in Haoyu's arms, feeling Haoyu's heartbeat.After a long time, Haoyu let go of Yuxian, "Let's go, don't let the second brother chase you away." He took Yuxian's hand and walked out of the yard.

Yuxian sent Haoyu to the gate and watched him get on the horse.Haoyu turned his head and waved to Yuxian, "Go back, it's too cold. Don't catch a cold." Then he left with his guards.

Yuxian looked at his retreating back, and was a little lost in thought for a moment.Junye came from behind Yuxian, "Everyone is gone, what are you still looking at here? Go back quickly. There will be opportunities to be together in the future." There was a hint of teasing in his tone.Junye still remembers how Yuxian messed with her bridal chamber back then.

"Brother, are you laughing at me?" Yuxian narrowed her eyes and looked at her elder brother.

"Okay, let's go back quickly. You've been away for a long time, and I'm afraid you haven't had a good rest. Let's have a good rest. The day after tomorrow, Junwei will get married, and we still have work to do." Jun Ye hurriedly changed the subject.

Seeing the elder brother's appearance, Yuxian no longer made things difficult for him, turned around and walked to her yard.Back in the room, the girl had already fetched water, Yuxian took a good hot bath, and then lay down on the hot quilt to sleep.

Dongyue 28 is a good day for the Tong family and the Liu family.Early in the morning, the Tong family got ready and set off with their things.The betrothal gifts are still all tied with red silk, and there are a total of 48 betrothal gifts.Tong's family hired a lot of porters, and they lined up to go to Liu's house.

Those who went to Liu's house today included Yunsong and his wife, Fang Xin and his wife, Fang Yun, Junye and his wife, and Yuxian.In addition, there is the matchmaker Li, the matchmaker is indispensable in this engagement.When we arrived at the gate of Liu's house, the door of Liu's house was opened, Master Liu and his wife were waiting outside with their servants.

When the two families met, they naturally wanted to exchange some pleasantries. When Master Liu saw the betrothal gifts, he was very happy, and hurriedly asked them to deliver all the things inside, and then brought the Tong family to the living room.

Everyone sat down as guest and host, and the girl next to him brought tea.Matchmaker Li recited the dowry gift from Tong's family.Master Liu and Madam couldn't help nodding their heads in praise after hearing this. "Zheng Guogong is really polite. He has prepared so many betrothal gifts. The little girl is blessed to be able to marry the number one scholar, and to have such good parents-in-law. She will have a good life in the future."

Under the auspices of Matchmaker Li, the two parties exchanged the Geng posts of Junwei and Yuehan, and then Matchmaker Li wrote a marriage letter for the two, and each party holds a copy. The engagement ceremony is considered complete.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Fang were chatting affectionately there, "If you talk about this fate, it's really amazing. If it weren't for your Yuxian who saved Yuehan back then, how could we have become in-laws? Speaking of which, we still I have to thank Yuxian, she can be regarded as a matchmaker. We have prepared Yuehan's dowry a long time ago. Although it is a bit rushed, it is nothing. Don't worry, the in-laws will definitely not lose the face of the Duke's Mansion. gone."

Fang naturally told Mrs. Liu how the family preparations were going, and also talked about the separation of the family after marriage.Mrs. Liu was also very happy when she heard this. It is a good thing for her daughter to separate when she is married, and she doesn't have to set rules in front of her mother-in-law. I haven't heard of anyone's daughter having such a blessing.
