Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 348 Marriage

"Eunuch, it seems that this is the place, I'll knock on the door!"

"Well, be more gentle, this is the girl that Uncle Guo has his eyes on, and the house is not an ordinary house, so give me some eyes to see clearly and don't offend people, when Uncle Guo blames our family I can't help you!"

"Don't worry, father-in-law, we will definitely not screw things up!"

Mengjia is having breakfast right now, and no one would have thought that a group of officers and soldiers would come to the door early in the morning, and they were not ordinary officers and soldiers. Cheng Qiang, who opened the door, was stunned for a while before asking: "I don't know if the messenger is neglecting me when I come to the door, please ask the messenger Haihan."

"Is this a dream house? Is Miss Meng Yuan Meng here?"

"Yes, yes, ladies and gentlemen, why don't you come in and have some tea and some snacks, and this old slave will go and tell my girl!"

"Well, hurry up and tell the masters to bathe, change clothes, burn incense and wash their hands. Our family is here today to announce the decree to Miss Meng!"

"Proclamation?"

"Come on, come! Eunuch Qin is sorry, I don't know that Eunuch Qin came out of the city to greet him, please forgive me!"

"Um"

The eunuch/supervisor who was called Eunuch Qin by Zhao Liang arrogantly bypassed Cheng Qiang and entered the dream house, leaving Cheng Qiang unaware so he looked at Zhao Liang: "Lord Zhao, what is going on? He said he was here to announce the decree , Is there any inside story that Mr. Zhao knows, why don't you tell this old slave to hear it?"

"Steward Cheng, you don't know, and I don't even know. You'd better hurry up and invite Miss Meng out. This edict probably has something to do with Miss Meng!"

Zhao Liang's reminder made Cheng Qiang couldn't help but raised his hand and slapped his forehead: "Look at me, I forgot all the big things, then Mr. Zhao, please go in first to greet the old slave, the old slave is here Go get the girl out."

When Cheng Qiang went to find Meng Yuan, the latter had already had breakfast and returned to her room to pack her things, that is to say, Meng Yuan did not meet those people.

"Girl, something big has happened, something big has happened, you hurry to the main hall, a group of people have come to the house, what are they talking about to announce the decree!"

Meng Yuan was busy packing her things, and just about to go downstairs to let Liu Tian prepare a carriage to go to Zhao'an County, when she heard Cheng Qiang's bluffing, this was the first time Meng Yuan saw Cheng Qiang so anxious.

"Cheng Bo, what made you so anxious? Also, what do you mean by proclaiming the decree?"

"This old slave doesn't know either, but girl, you'd better go down quickly, Mr. Zhao is accompanying those people, it looks like they have a lot of background!"

Mengyuan was stunned for a while, and announced the decree, I hope it is not what she thinks in her heart?This incident happened too suddenly, it actually made her encounter the legendary emperor's decree, and even went to her house to announce the decree!

"Cheng Bo, hurry up and call the master, wife, and young master to the main hall. Remember, the dress should be tidy and the spirit should be full. Those who come to announce the decree represent the emperor. We can't neglect it. If the time comes They have given us a serious crime of contempt for the imperial court, we, the Meng family, cannot afford it!"

"Yes, yes, this old slave will call the old lady and the young master here."

Meng Yuan attached great importance to the people who came from the palace, and after explaining to Cheng Qiang, she also quickly went to the main hall.Zhao Liang was talking with that person, and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Little girl Meng Yuan, I wonder if the father-in-law is looking for my little girl?"

"Ah, Miss Meng, are you here? Let me introduce you. This is Eunuch Qin from the palace. He came here today to announce the decree to Miss Meng!"

"Eunuch Qin, this is the girl Mengyuanmeng you are looking for!"

Meng Yuan stepped forward and bowed in front of Qin Zhong: "Hello, Mr. Qin!"

Qin Zhong jumped to avoid Meng Yuan's salute: "Miss Meng, our family dare not accept your big gift. Our family is here to announce the decree. I don't know if Mrs. Meng is here?"

"Eunuch, wait a moment, I have sent my servant to invite my parents."

"Xiaomin pays respects to Eunuch Qin (Women pay respects to Eunuch Qin)"

"Since everyone is here, Miss Meng, please offer incense, our family is going to read the imperial decree!"

"it is good"

After a lot of tossing, Meng Yuan brought her parents and family servants to kneel in front of the incense table to receive the order.

"By God's will, in view of Meng's (Meng Yuan)'s contribution to agriculture, I hereby reward Meng's (Meng Yuan)'s fertile land with a thousand taels of silver as encouragement. In addition, Ling Xiaoyu, the second son of the Xiangfu Ling family (Mengyuan) I fell in love at first sight, and I intend to be a matchmaker to bestow the two of you, hoping to choose a date to get married. This..."

"Miss Meng, accept the order!"

Although the content of the imperial decree made Meng Yuan Lei very tender, she still couldn't refuse. "Thank you Lord Long En. Eunuch Qin has worked hard for you!" When receiving the order, Meng Yuan rewarded Qin Zhong with an ingot of ten taels of silver.

"Congratulations to Miss Meng, and congratulations to Miss Meng. Young Master Ling is a rare and handsome young master. Miss Meng is the envy of many boudoir daughters! Besides, our family is about to leave for the palace soon, Miss Meng, please tidy up. Come with our family into the palace to thank you!?"

"Okay, father-in-law later, I can set off after I explain things!"

After receiving the imperial decree, Mengyuan carefully placed the imperial decree in front of the incense table, "Father and mother, this thing will be the ancestor of our family in the future, so you have to watch it carefully! If something goes wrong, you will lose your head!"

"Don't worry, you hurry up and pack up your things and go to the palace to thank you. Your mother and I are the ones involved in the family affairs! Remember, the palace compound is no better than your shopping mall. What should you say and what should not be said, you are also an old man." Someone with an idea, you have to think it over!"

"Well, Dad, don't worry, then I'll go first!"

Mengyuan took Liu Tian and left Qiushui Village alone. Because she wanted to enter the palace to thank her, her appointment with Lin Hao was about to go to waste. Before leaving, she asked Cheng Bo to go to Zhao'an County to talk to Lin Hao. Hao explained clearly!

"Miss Meng, can we start our journey?"

"Well, Eunuch Qin, we can go!"

It is impossible for a large group of people to enter the village without being seen. When Mengyuan left, the news about the marriage and rewards from the imperial decree swept through the entire Qiushui Village like a tornado, and it didn't take long for the entire Buyang Town to explode.

Those who have good relations with Mengjia are naturally happy for Mengjia, and those who have conflicts with Mengjia are naturally worried about being retaliated by Mengjia.

On the way, during a break, Mengyuan asked Qin Zhong the questions in her heart. "Eunuch Qin, I don't know what's going on with this marriage grant?"

"Hehe, Miss Meng, this is a very happy event. Isn't Miss Meng unhappy? It seems that since the announcement of the marriage, Miss Meng's complexion has not been very good!?"

"No, Eunuch Qin, you read it wrong. It is Meng Yuan's honor that the emperor can marry me a small peasant girl, so how can she be unhappy! That is the only way we can get this honor when smoke is rising from the Meng family's ancestral grave."

"That's good. If the second son knows that Miss Meng is unhappy, then our family will have no good fruit to eat when we go back!"

"Eunuch is serious, then, I won't disturb your rest!"

Qin Zhong looked at Meng Yuan and couldn't figure it out, she was just a very ordinary little girl, she looked purer, but how could she look about ten years old at her age?When will the taste of these two sons become...

Heh, turnips and vegetables have their own loves, and the second son personally asked the emperor for the imperial edict for this dream girl~!

After resting for about a quarter of an hour, everyone started on their way again.Meng Yuan was still a little dazed about being given the marriage, the time they had agreed before had not yet arrived, why were they in such a hurry to get the emperor to give the marriage?Could it be that there is something here that I don't know?

Compared with the calmness of the Meng Family when receiving the order, the Ling Mansion is a different scene!

In Fucheng, it is not uncommon for first-rank officials to receive imperial edicts, but what makes them wonder is, what kind of imperial edict did the well-behaved emperor issue to the Ling family?
"Eunuch Zhao, don't you know the content of this edict...?"

"Hehe, Master Ling, our family would like to congratulate you. The Second Young Master has a happy marriage. Hurry up and let the Second Young Master come out to receive the order!"

"Eunuch Zhao, I heard your footsteps from a long distance away. Since it's about me, how can I keep you waiting for a long time, Eunuch Zhao?"

"It's easy to say, easy to say, if everyone is here, then our family will announce the decree!"

"Long Live My Emperor Long Live Long Live"

"By God's blessing, Ling Xiaoyu and Meng Yuan, the second sons of the Ling family, are in love with each other. I have the heart to protect the matchmaker and hereby bestow marriage to the two of them. I hope they will get married on another day! This is what I do." The contents of the two edicts are different, but they are all for Ling Xiaoyu and Mengyuan were married.

"Thank you Lord Long En, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Second Young Master, congratulations."

"We are happy together, father-in-law can drink a few more glasses of wedding wine then!"

"Sure, sure, there is still something going on in the palace, did the Second Young Master enter the palace by himself to thank you or...?"

"I will enter the palace by myself, but I still have to wait for someone else, Eunuch Zhao, please go back to the palace first and return to your command!"

"Hey, then Prime Minister Ling, Madam Ling, our family is one step ahead!"

Ling Guocheng was fine, how could his son not know what kind of temper his father had, and he knew that it was only a matter of time, but it seemed too early.On the contrary, Mu Zi'er couldn't accept it. As soon as Zhao Hong left the Ling Mansion, Mu Zi'er dragged his youngest son to start tutoring!

"Yu'er, this imperial decree has nothing to do with you, right? Hmph, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking, and you'll play against me as soon as I come back. She, Mengyuan, is really so good that you can enter the palace to beg for her." The emperor bestowed a marriage?"

"Mother, this is my business. The one living with me is Meng Yuan. Why are you so against it? Didn't you always urge me to get married? Now that the emperor has given you a marriage, you have another opinion. What exactly do you want me to do? How can you be satisfied?"

This is the first time Ling Xiaoyu has spoken to Mu Zi'er like this. His tone may be a little heavy, but he was forced to come out!He also knows that his mother is for his own good, but he just wants to live for himself once, is it that difficult?

"Yu'er, why did you talk to your mother? Do you still have some respect? Your mother is also for you, and Meng Yuan is indeed too young, so why don't you think about it anymore? People know about this, if you want to go back on your word, you can go to the palace now and tell the emperor to take it back?!"
