Although the Qi family is not a family that has been officials for generations, it is still considered a country squire in this area. The etiquette and rules are naturally good, and they all behave according to ancient etiquette.

The first step was to accept the marriage. The Qi family invited the only official matchmaker in the city to come to propose marriage, and were followed by several boys running errands. Some of the boys were holding live geese, some were carrying painted suitcases, and some were carrying colored suitcases. Holding a flower box.

Because she had not yet married her, she quietly opened the shop in the back yard, knocked on the door and entered the house. The official mediator entered the house so that Mrs. Fang could salute and said: "Old lady, I would like to give my second wife a present."

Mrs. Fang had never been called such a name before. She was stunned for a long time before she remembered that she was talking about herself, and she hurriedly offered her seat for tea.

After all, the official media is different from the matchmakers in the countryside. They are also polite and courteous in their words. They say things like heaven and earth, Qin and Jin are good. Chapter 320, Lotus Engagement, was quoted from her mouth, and she abducted Qi**. After ten twists and turns, Fang's head was dizzy, and she almost forgot what this person was doing. Finally, she finally got to the point, and saw the official matchmaker take out a straw note from the chest of the Confucian skirt, He handed it to Ms. Fang and said, "This is a draft from Brother Qi. I hope Second Mistress will read it carefully!"

When Mrs. Fang took it, she only knew that the writing on it was very handsome, but she didn't recognize any of it. She only took out the eight characters of lotus that she had prepared earlier, and handed it over with a reward in a red paper envelope underneath. He said to the official media: "I'm sorry for your trouble. It's a hot day. I'll take some money and eat some ice bowls to relieve the heat."

Naturally, there was no reason not to accept the reward for such a happy event. The official matchmaker took Feng'er and handed it to the boy at the back without weighing the importance. She only carefully put the straw note back into her arms. , then stood up and said goodbye: "Without delaying my best wishes to Second Mistress for her business, let's go find someone to marry her, so that everyone can feel at ease."

Both families got each other's scrawled notes, and took their own children's notes and put them in one place, pressing them under the incense burner in the hall to see if everything in the family went smoothly in the past three days. Then they were sent together to find Najib to get married, and they were approved to be married.

Qi Jintang heard that in Chapter 320, Lotus was engaged to be a match made in heaven, and her heart that was still hanging on the idea of a good match was finally settled. She was so happy that she urged Qi's mother to prepare for the wedding. bride price.

Qi's mother was not very happy about this marriage, but now it's a done deal, and Master Qi even tried to persuade her for a few days, but she reluctantly gave up and sent the matchmaker to discuss the agreement with Fang. The date was decided to be August 16th, which was the perfect day after the Mid-Autumn Festival when the moon was full, and Mrs. Fang went back to the village to make preparations first. She called Jasmine back from home and tidied up everything inside and outside her home. The tiles were polished and polished, and they were also pasted with new paper. The doors and windows were replaced with gauze. In the courtyard, Zhu Yongxin and Zhu Laosi built a pergola together and kept it tidy.

On August 15th, everyone in the city went home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Although the next day was a good day, there was no way for girls who had gone out to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival at home. Jasmine hurried home early in the morning to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and eat it in the evening. After drinking sweet-scented osmanthus wine at the reunion dinner, we were driven back to her parents' home overnight.

Hehua had already got into bed and lay down, but she heard a knock on the door again. Not long after, Jasmine came into the house in a hurry, kicked off her embroidered shoes and leaned on the kang, saying, "I'm exhausted today. The car ride was so hard that my bones were shaking, and I drank several glasses of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in the evening. Now my forehead is pounding and the pit in my heart is pounding, but I can’t move."

"How long have you been married? I learned this mandarin, which is full of old-fashioned and old-fashioned words. It makes me feel talkative even listening to it." Although Hehua complained, she still got up, put on her clothes, and fetched some water for Jasmine. He wiped his face and made strong tea for her to sober up.

Jasmine hurriedly took the tea cup and said, "You heartless little girl, who am I running back and forth for? Isn't it because I can help you tomorrow? It's true that a dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart."

"I think your brother-in-law is too sweet and relies on you in everything, otherwise he wouldn't have let you come back so late at night." Hehua packed up her things and ran back to bed, "You two are playing tricks every day. , don’t think that I don’t know. You can scare your parents, but you can’t scare me. If you bully me again, tell your mother about it and see if she will beat you or me."

"Okay, my sister-in-law, why don't I be afraid of you?" Jasmine begged for mercy. The two of them joked around for a while, and then they settled down to talk about the intimate things between sisters.

"I used to see you two always hanging out together, and I was annoyed with you for a long time. I never thought that our family would be in such a situation now. Apart from anything else, just based on my eldest brother's future, I can't be considered superior to him. "My family, but I'm afraid that your future mother-in-law will be more difficult to deal with than my old lady and my wife combined. I don't know what you like about him?" Jasmine hugged a soft pillow made of wild chrysanthemums and said to Hehua. , "Although he looks good, he is quite studious and progressive, and his family background is better than ours, but it doesn't mean that we can't find another one like this. We have to find an evil mother-in-law to grind him down. Isn't it addictive?"

"Where did you get all this involved? Now it's just time to get hired. It's still early for me to marry you!" Hehua was unwilling to accept her words and pouted, "Then what about my brother-in-law? What’s good?”

"Look at this girl, you're protecting her even before she's married. I, as the eldest sister, can't help it. When you get married in the future, will you turn the world upside down?" Jasmine stretched out her hand to pinch Hehua's cheek. Touching her hot cheek, he knew that he was embarrassed by what he said, so he changed his words and said, "I heard from mother that the shops in the city have opened and are very prosperous, but you didn't even ask me to do this." If you go to have a meal with your sister, I really hurt you for nothing when you were a kid."

"We are biological sisters. Why are you so polite to me? If you want to come and eat, you can just ask a servant to bring you a car. Can I ask you to collect money? You don't know how to come here to add a souvenir, and you have the nerve to show me that I don't treat you to a meal." Besides, the business of this shop is not just for me, it’s the family’s money and business..." Hehua said and yawned.

"Go to bed quickly, we have to get up early tomorrow. Mrs. Qi has always looked down on our family, but she has to be decent this time. Let's see if she can even say no!" Jasmine was furious in her heart, and her mouth was filled with anger. I couldn't help but bring it out and talk about it.

"She has never liked me since the beginning. Now, unless I become some kind of princess, she might be able to change her mind. But I don't have any extravagant hopes for anything else. As long as we don't break the rules, it's okay. I don't care about her. Whether you like something or not, if you feel like you don't like it in your heart, you still don't like it no matter how you look at it..." Hehua said vaguely sleepily.

"What you said makes sense... Just like when I look at her, no matter how I look at her, I still find it distasteful. Even if she brings me gold and silver tomorrow, I will still find it distasteful." Jasmine said a few more words casually... Turn around and see you. Lotus had already fallen asleep, so he pulled the thin quilt uninterestingly and fell asleep in a daze.

In the morning, before dawn, Mrs. Fang woke them up. The two sisters washed up and woke up. Hehua changed into new clothes, combed her hair, and then asked Mrs. Fang to arrange to sit on the kang in the back room to say goodbye. Move... Jasmine is coming to put rouge on her.

He Hua repeatedly waved her hands in disapproval, saying that she was still using the facial makeup she was used to on weekdays. While Fang was out, she only talked about Shao Yao's makeup that day and didn't mention anything else, which made Jasmine laugh.

Mrs. Fang only heard something about Shaoyao outside, and thought Hehua was complaining. She quickly picked up the curtain and entered the room and said: "What happened to you, Sister Shaoyao, maybe it was unintentional... Just stop talking about it and pretend it didn't happen." That’s it.”

Jasmine felt something from these words and insisted on asking clearly what was going on here... The lotus flower couldn't be rubbed by her, so she could only pick it up and talk about it.

Sure enough, Jasmine was as angry as ever when she heard this. She stood up to argue but Fang stopped her and pulled her back. She sat down on the edge of the kang and got angry: "Mom, Hehua is young and doesn't understand. Why are you so tolerant?" , haven’t our family been angry enough for so many years? She even talked about it on her own big day, and she also learned how to use money to hit people, which is really a good skill she was born with. "

"Shaoyao is just a child. You, a married woman, have the same experience as her... It would make people laugh if you tell me. Today is the day when Lotus is happy, so don't do anything stupid.

While they were talking in the house, the sound of firecrackers outside shook the sky. After all, they lived in a village, and the sound was echoing in the mountain col... It sounded very deafening.

The fourth aunt, Mrs. Lin, also arrived to help with the lunch meal. However, Borong invited a chef from the city to cook at home, so the family just followed suit, but there was no need to be too busy. There were several children. They were playing noisily inside and outside. After a while, the sound of firecrackers and musical instruments became closer and closer.

After waiting for the betrothal gift to be carried through the courtyard gate, Jasmine had enough watching outside and came in again to say to Hehua: "The Qi family is still a very particular family after all. Although I didn't count them, there were quite a few boxes and loads of sheep and wild goose tea." Rice, wine, meat, fish and deer, clothes, hair and face, longevity thread, and acacia bells were all in complete condition. It was hard to figure out how his family found them. The first load was wrapped with gift money in red paper. I guess there must be three people there. Fifty is quite thick..."

As they were talking here, Qi's mother followed Qi Jintang's aunt and aunt into the house to put lotus flowers on them. Mohui hurriedly stopped talking and picked up the wooden tray on the table.

Xi Niang also stepped on the lotus and chanted a happy song. Qi Mu stepped forward and put on bracelets and hairpins. Some of the people behind her added hair on their temples, some added flowers on their temples, and some added hairpins. Xiaotian then went to Jasmine to add money for makeup, and after struggling for a long time, she finally left.

Although the Qi family is not an aristocratic family that has been officials for generations, it can be regarded as a large family of squires in this area. Naturally, the etiquette and rules are all good, and they all behave according to ancient etiquette.

The first step was to accept the marriage. The Qi family invited the only official matchmaker in the city to come to propose marriage, and were followed by several boys running errands.

After all, the official media is different from the matchmakers in the countryside. They are also polite and courteous in their speech. Words such as the perfect match between heaven and earth, Qin and Jin are good, and so on. When she comes out of her mouth, she even quotes from classics, twists and turns, and speaks directly. Fang's head was dizzy, and she almost forgot what this person was doing. Finally, she finally got to the point. She saw the official matchmaker took out a cursive post from the chest of the Confucian skirt, handed it to Fang and said, "This is It’s a draft from brother Qi, I hope Second Mistress will read it carefully!”

When Mrs. Fang took it, she only knew that the writing on it was very handsome, but she didn't recognize any of it. She only took out the eight characters of lotus that she had prepared earlier, and handed it over with a reward in a red paper envelope underneath.

Both families got each other's notes, and took their own children's notes and put them in one place, pressing them under the incense burner in the hall. Let's see if everything goes well at home these three days. Then they were sent together to find Najib to get married, and they were approved to be married.

Qi Jintang heard that he had found a match made in heaven...a match made in heaven. His heart, which was still hanging in the air, was finally settled. He was so happy that he urged Qi's mother to prepare for the betrothal gift.

The date was decided to be August 16th...it was a great day with a full moon after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was an even number.

Mrs. Fang first went back to the village to make preparations, and called Jasmine back from home... She tidied up the outside of her home, and even pasted it with new paper. The doors and windows were replaced with gauze. He even asked Zhu Yongxin and Zhu Laosi to build a pergola together and tidy it up without any mess.
