Chapter 720 Three Don't Hurry to Get Married

In the afternoon, He Lanshan had nothing to do at home, so she called Xiaokui, Ruoxue, Feixu and the others to her, and then she grabbed a handful of golden lockets that Mu Qianjiao gave her, and divided each of them into four pieces. A golden key.

"This is a new gadget given by the princess, you can also take it and have fun." After He Lanshan divided the three of them, there was still a lot in it, and she went to the Shixiang Pavilion when the time came, and she could also give it to the cook before. We and the shop waiter, and a long-term worker with a golden scorpion.

Although she didn't count them carefully, He Lanshan felt that there were still some left, so she kept them for herself, and it might be useful sometime.

At night, when He Jinyi and Zhao Shuangxi came back, she took out the land deed Shao Juntang gave her and told them about it.

As soon as Zhao Shuangxi heard about this, she couldn't hide the astonishment and joy on her face, so she held it and looked at it seriously under the lamp.

He Jinyi remained silent, and it took a long while before he opened his mouth to say, "We really owe Shao Qiye too much. It is thanks to Shao Qiye's help that we have come all the way."

He Lanshan didn't speak, Zhao Shuangxi sat aside but couldn't help it, "I can't say that completely, Shao Qiye has helped us a lot, but there is no decline, and without the hard work of our own family, we wouldn't have Come here. Also, didn’t Lanshan just say that it was given by Mrs. Shao.”

Of course, He Jinyi couldn't say anything about Zhao Shuangxi, and since she couldn't find anything wrong with her words, he could only shut his mouth and sit aside.

"Good girl, I didn't expect Mrs. Shao to be so generous." Zhao Shuangxi turned around and happily discussed with He Lanshan, "It seems that the white jade Guanyin you bought for the old lady's birthday at a high price was really the right one. Look Otherwise, Mrs. Shao would still think about you, and even think about your dowry."

Anyway, Zhao Shuangxi just praised the Shao family, and He Lanshan couldn't say now that the Shao family has the right and wrong of the Shao family.

When He Lanshan thought about it, she couldn't tell her clearly that there were scheming and intrigue in the inner house of the Shao mansion. Anyway, it was true that Shao Juntang and Mrs. Shao treated them well, so let her talk.

"My dear girl, when it comes to dowry, Mother has already prepared everything for you, so you don't need to worry about finding a husband's family." Zhao Shuangxi rubbed his chin seriously and began to think, "Although Mother is reluctant to part with you, but the young talents in the capital The son of the family is much better than the Wangyue Mansion."

"Mother wasn't in a hurry at first, but now that I think about it, there are many daughters and rich families in the capital. If you don't care, what if all the good people are picked away?" Zhao Shuangxi said with a look on her face. serious.

He Lanshan's eyebrows drooped, she was not in a hurry, she had already made a decision with someone for a lifetime in her heart, no matter whether he was good or bad, she only recognized Gu Liuyun.

And Gu Liuyun was burdened with other things, and it was impossible to start a family early. He Lanshan still kept the relationship between the two of them a secret from He Jinyi and Zhao Shuangxi, so she planned to continue to hide it until she had a chance.

So He Lanshan's rhetoric was still the same, she said that she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she was not in a hurry to get married at all.

"Mother, the most urgent thing is in the capital." He Lanshan began to persuade Zhao Shuangxi with reason and evidence, "Mother, you don't know, there is a saying in the capital that the second young lady is usually married to the eldest lady. Well, mother, do you know why this is?"

"Why?" Zhao Shuangxi was stunned for a moment, with a confused and puzzled expression on her face. She had never heard of such a thing before. She turned to look at He Jinyi, and saw that he was also at a loss, completely unaware of what was going on.

Zhao Shuangxi thought for a while and asked, "My dear girl, you're not fooling me and your father, are you? Don't lie to us that we don't know enough. Your father and I see so many people every day, and we haven't heard what they say. Huh?" Zhao Shuangxi looked incredulous and curious.

He Lanshan couldn't help laughing, and she replied, "Of course I didn't lie to you, but about girls' marriage, they can't go to restaurants and discuss it in front of others, so it's normal that you and dad don't know what."

She looked up at He Jinyi again, "Father, you are right about what I said."

He Jinyi nodded cooperatively, the truth is indeed such a truth.

When Zhao Shuangxi heard this, she became even more curious, and hurriedly urged He Lanshan to continue, she must listen to what was going on here.

"Actually, it's because the girl's family background has changed." He Lanshan began her serious explanation, "Mother, think about it, if the eldest lady was married when her father was not an official or a minor official, then the in-laws' family What will it be like?"

Zhao Shuangxi listened carefully, while thinking seriously about He Lanshan's question.

"Mother, if you think about it again, if this father is promoted in the midst of this time, what will the second young lady who married a few years later, what would the in-laws look like?" He Lanshan slightly raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Oh, I see, so it's like this!" Zhao Shuangxi looked suddenly enlightened, and He Lanshan continued talking after seeing this.

"So, mother, our family's reputation in Shixiang Pavilion is good in the capital, and our monthly income is quite a lot, but so what, there are many girls from better backgrounds than mine." He Lanshan didn't think so. Eager to cling to better dignitaries, but she must delay the time, and then wait for Gu Liuyun to come to her door to propose marriage to her.

"Although the older brothers in my family are very talented, the eldest brother and the second brother are just recruiting people. I am not very old. I can wait for them to be on the list, become officials, and shine on our lintels before thinking about getting married. The in-laws' affairs are not in a hurry."

He Lanshan had the previous examples as a foreshadowing, and what he said later could easily be accepted by He Jinyi and Zhao Shuangxi.

Sure enough, the two of them readily accepted her statement, and they were no longer in a hurry to urge her to get married.

The relaxed and brisk days of the Chinese New Year always pass quickly. The bustling and lively capital is always one step ahead of other places. Even after the New Year's Eve, the speed of opening of various businesses is top-notch.

In the past, in Wangyue Mansion, the earliest wave of business might only start on the fifth and sixth day of the new year, but in the capital, the busy new year almost started from the third and fourth day of the new year.

He Lanshan also had to adapt to this rhythm. After a year has passed, she returned to Shixiang Pavilion and started to open her own kitchen.

After ten days of busy work, they finally ushered in their first Lantern Festival in the capital.

The Lantern Festival in Beijing is also more lively than what He Lanshan has seen elsewhere before. Two days before the Lantern Festival, all kinds of beautiful lanterns are hung on the streets. Even if the lanterns are not lit, it is still very beautiful to see during the day .
