Chapter 204

With this punch, the room became lively, and the atmosphere suddenly became better.

"Qiaozhen, it seems that the Duke has a good impression of our family. This is a good thing. I didn't expect him to be quite amiable. You are a lucky one. My sister-in-law is happy for you." Mei Hua said softly to Qiaozhen.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Qiaozhen thanked her with a smile. She really felt that her life was good, and she had everything she should have now.

After three rounds of wine, delicious food, good food and drink in the house, that’s all. The Duke of Zhen didn’t drink less. Wang Changshun dragged him to come again. The steward’s heart twitched when he saw it. What did he think of his master? what.Although they want to get married, what is the status of the master, they can't treat others like they usually do.

The manager wanted to say a few words, but seeing the master yelling loudly and wanting to drink more, they stood resentfully, not daring to speak. If the master pleases them, they would have nothing to eat.

Fortunately, a few people from the Zhou family came to persuade them, so they can't make people drink too much, right?

After they were sent to the carriage, and it was agreed that they would come to pick up Wang Changshun and Mrs. Zhou to visit the town in a few days, Lord Zhen Guo left, and everyone cleaned up before eating.

There is such a rule here that when guests come to the house, women generally do not go to the table. If there are few people, the women will eat in the stove house, but if there are many people, they have to wait. Table to eat.Unless there is a female guest to accompany, otherwise you have to wait.

During the meal, Mrs. Zhou kept calling her mother, saying that she was trembling when she saw Mr. Zhen Guo, and wanted to say a few words, but she opened her mouth but couldn’t make a sound. What does it feel like.

"Oh my mother, I felt trembling in my calves even when I didn't come forward. When he saw me, I wanted to kneel down, let alone approach me. What if you said that it happened that Qiaozhen married and became an in-law? When we meet and talk, I knelt down and people still laugh at me." Yuhua also expressed her feelings loudly.

"Me too, I'm panicked too, those eyes are so scary, and my father is even pulling people to drink, why aren't I afraid." Qiaohong also panicked.

"Your father drank too much. Didn't you see that when people talked to him before, he couldn't say anything, and he just smirked. He was more uncomfortable sitting there than me, and his legs couldn't even move. It's gone." Zhou revealed her man's truth with a smile.

"So that's the case. I thought Dad was so powerful, and he was afraid even if he dared to be affectionate." Yuhua patted her chest.

"It's good to get used to it. It's okay to get in touch with him a few times. Duke Zhen is also a human being, so it's not scary." Qiaozhen smiled along with him.

"It's you, you go and ask around, who can not be afraid." Mrs. Zhou glanced at her daughter, she is really courageous.

Qiaozhen chuckled, because she was a modern person in her soul, so she didn't have such a strong idea of ​​imperial power, and she wouldn't be so afraid.

Everyone was chatting and laughing. After this time, although the Wang family was still afraid and awed from the bottom of their hearts, they were much better than before. At least they knew that Duke Zhen was not difficult to get along with.

A few days later, on the appointed day, the town sent a carriage to pick up Wang Changshun and Mrs. Zhou to go to the town. They were visiting the man's house, so Qiaozhen still couldn't go.

Wang Changshun and the Zhou family didn't come back until the middle of the afternoon. When they came back, they told everyone how grand the Zhao family in the town was, how big the mansion was, how many people there were, and that they had never been in such a good place in their life, etc.

It is said that the Chen family's hospitality is very thoughtful, the preparation is exquisite, and they are served by others. This is the first time in their life that they are served by others, and they still feel quite uncomfortable.

The only bad thing is that Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife still didn't show up, saying that she was unwell and couldn't come out to meet the guests. She just sent her mother to visit and said some nice words.

The Wang family didn't pick it up, it had to be everyone's wife, and it was understandable that she couldn't entertain her because she was in poor health.

Qiao Xin vaguely guessed what was going on, but she didn't care, anyway, the matter had already been settled.

A few days later, the Chen family sent people to give the betrothal gifts. The betrothal gifts were twelve loads in total. Porcelain, high-grade fabrics, gold ware, and snacks arrived at the Wang family's yard. They were all good things, and everyone looked at them in amazement.

Many spectators in Zhuangzi rushed in, asking what was the matter, they heard that it was a gift for Qiaozhen, and Qiaozhen betrothed such a high family, the crowd let out admiration, envy, jealousy Yes, each speaks out, discussing non-stop.

The smiles on the faces of Wang Changshun, Zhou Shi and others couldn't be stopped, they were happy from the bottom of their hearts, not only was the daughter married but also married to such a good family, how could they be unhappy, their faces were also bright.

The gift they received was the first in Zhuangzi. No matter how rich the Zhuangzi was, it was not as valuable as what they received today. This is a long face, but they planned it in their hearts. When the time comes, it will be counted as the daughter's dowry, and then given to the daughter. If you send it out, you won't embarrass your daughter.

Qiaozhen also came to congratulate quite a few, and Qiaozhen thanked them in a friendly way. No matter whether people are sincere or not, it is a good thing to come to congratulate.

The turmoil of the bride price became the topic of Zhuangzi’s after-dinner conversation. The families kept talking about it. Whether they were envious or jealous, they always had a question in their minds. Why did such a tall family fall in love with Qiaozhen? Qiaozhen is not a person Huang Hua's daughter, married and divorced, why did people fall in love with her blindly? Although my own daughter is not a coincidence, it's nice, but she is innocent. Why is it better than coincidence? With a little thought, when the man comes again, let his niece hang around, maybe she will get favored, not to mention a wife, even a concubine is better than ordinary people.

Qiaozhen doesn't know the thoughts of the people in Zhuangzi, she is full of joy now, but also a little apprehensive, it's her first time getting married, so why would she feel a little uneasy in her heart, although the two sides are discussing, the day of getting married hasn't come yet It's almost time to settle down. Are you going to get married?It's incredible to think about it.

Tianqiao was actually embroidering the dowry in the house. Although her needlework was not very good, the meaning of her own embroidery was different, so she had to embroider some dowry for Chen Xuanyu and herself to express her heart.

"Elder Sister, Mr. Chen sent a carriage and said he wanted to take you to the town. He has something to look for you." Qiaohong ran in.

"Oh? Who's here? Can you tell me what's the matter?" Qiaozhen asked, didn't it mean that she and Chen Xuanyu couldn't meet during this period?
"It's from Xiao Wu. He said that there is a big event and he must go." Qiaohong smiled.

"Well then, Hong'er, look at this side of the house, if I don't come back at noon, don't wait for me to eat." Qiaozhen put down her needlework, gave some instructions, and went out to get on the carriage.

The carriage drove to the town, and after it stopped, Qiaozhen got out of the car. She looked around and was stunned. This is not the gate of another courtyard. Although this place is clean, she has never been here before. Where is this?

Xiao Wu led Qiaozhen into the gate, and Qiaozhen looked around.

"Here we come." A clear voice sounded, and Chen Xuanyu appeared in front of Qiaozhen.

"Hi Mr. Chen." Qiaozhen said hello, looking at that handsome face, Qiaozhen blushed a little. She was not very shy before, but now that the matter between the two has been settled, she feels embarrassed .

"This is the yard I bought. I invite you to take a look today. If you are satisfied, I will start to decorate it. You can tell me your preferences. If you don't like this place, let's look at the place again." Chen Xuanyu Tell her why you came here.

"You bought it? So fast. I thought it would take a while." Qiaozhen was a little surprised, she really didn't expect that Chen Xuanyu invited her to see the house.

"Well, the formalities are all done. I'll show you to see if you like it." Chen Xuanyu led the way and took Qiaozhen to look at it.

The courtyard has three entrances. Compared with the other courtyards of Yunjia, it is a bit small, but the decoration is very unique, the environment is quiet, and there is nothing missing inside. The front yard is grand and the inner yard is elegant. Qiaozhen is very satisfied after reading it. The yard was already a luxury to her.

"It's pretty good. It's so big, so many people can live here." Qiaozhen nodded.

"It's fine if you like it. The servant hasn't come here yet. Today I'm just showing you. When we get married, everything will be decorated here." Chen Xuanyu said softly, but Qiaozhen blushed, she couldn't answer the words .

"But is there any other request?" Chen Xuanyu asked, she hoped that everything could be as she wished.

"Well, let me think about it, there is nothing else, but I think the pond is wasted, and there are only goldfish in it, why not plant some lotus roots, not only can you eat, but also the lotus flowers will look good when the time comes, where there is a pavilion, when the time is there Enjoying the shade, appreciating the lotus and listening to the rain are all good." Qiaozhen expressed his thoughts, since they will live in the future, it must be comfortable, and if he has any opinions, he should raise them.

"Okay." Chen Xuanyu nodded and wrote down, what she said was good and very leisurely.

"There are enough flowers and plants in the yard, and the backyard is full of flowers and plants. When the time comes, the backyard will be full of vegetables. Plant a la carte in the mansion. It's delicious and not wasteful." Qiaozhen feels that there are too many flowers and plants, which is really a waste.

"It's up to you." Chen Xuanyu nodded with a smile. She thinks differently from others. Other ladies want expensive flowers. She is good and wants to start a vegetable garden, but I like her like this.

"And the bedroom." Qiaozhen blushed suddenly when she said this, but she continued. "Doesn't the outer room need a bed for the night?" She went to the master bedroom to look at it earlier, and everything was well furnished, and the inner room was also well furnished. It collapsed, presumably it was for the maid who was on duty at night to sleep.But she felt embarrassed, they were married, and there was still someone sleeping outside, so she would not die of shame when the time came.After thinking about it, she couldn't ask for such a maid who was on duty at night. Such a maid would not only think too much, but would also easily cause chaos. When the time came, she would do everything by herself, and she would not worry if she didn't have such a maid by her side.

　Thank you Dahanjian for the two safety charms, and thank you for your support.
