Chapter 36 Marriage
Knowing that there would be no problems, my uncle was just making fun of him, and Xia Ting felt much more at ease.
Seeing the little girl having been there, Mr. Ding smiled and said, "Okay, okay, don't say it or not, listen to it."
Xia Ting chatted with Mr. Ding for a while and confirmed that his uncle had just had a skin trauma and the swollen area on his legs had now subsided, although Xia Ting had not seen it with his own eyes.
After all, there is a difference between men and women, even relatives need to avoid suspicion.
So, Xia Ting heard what his uncle said, and the servant beside her was also comforting her.
After talking for a long time, my uncle cared about Xia Ting's knees and daily life, and then he let the girl go with confidence.
Xia Ting came over, and Lord Meng avoided for a moment.
Although he is an elder, Lord Meng and Xia Ting are not familiar with each other after all. After meeting each other twice, he was afraid that he would stand here and be restrained, so Lord Meng retreated to the next door early.
When Xia Ting left, Lord Meng then pinched his beard and walked in with a smile. He glanced at Xia Ting's back from afar, then turned his head and teased: "This little girl is so good. It's really suitable for my unsatisfactory young son. It's a pity, why did he get engaged?"
When it comes to Xia Ting's engagement, Mr. Ding's face suddenly turned black. The originally elegant and gentle scholarly temperament gradually turned into a cold murderous intent. His eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and he looked fierce. His voice was also a little annoyed: "It's just a joke that the elders of the two families were drunk. How can they be true? Even if the Xia family was true, our Ding family had not agreed yet."
Seeing that Mr. Ding was so angry that he was angry and was in a state of rampage, Lord Meng hurriedly smiled and comforted him: "Justs are jokes, and they cannot be taken seriously. Moreover, Yongshun's mansion is really not a good place. The sixth girl is weak in temperament and has a weak body, so she cannot enter such a family."
"A good place, our Ding family doesn't want to do it either!" If one leg was not allowed to move, Mr. Ding would have wanted to stand up and express the Ding family's position directly.
Want to marry Xia Ting out casually?
That is definitely impossible, the Ding family is the first to disagree!
"Look at you, look at you, so excited, Mo Qi, Mo Qi, you are still sick. Your brother-in-law is not a simple one. He doesn't know that Yongshun's mansion is not a good destination? I think the other party knows what you are angry about here. Find time to meet your brother-in-law and hear what he thinks." When Lord Meng saw that his old friend was about to rise up, he hurriedly persuaded him with a smile.
"Hmph!" Uncle Ding also knew that Master Xia Si was more nervous than him, and Xia Ting would definitely not marry Xia Ting out casually. So when Lord Meng mentioned Master Xia Si, his expression calmed down a lot, but in the end he was still angry and snorted coldly.
In fact, if Xia Ting was healthy, Uncle Ding would not be so worried.
It’s not that the little girl is in poor health. In Xia and Ding Mansions, they spoil and hurt, and they can do anything.
But it is hard to say if you marry into your in-laws' family.
What if they dislike Xia Ting for being in poor health?
What if you meet a bad mother-in-law and set rules for Xia Ting?
When Mr. Ding thought of this, he felt agitation rising.
Lord Meng is also good at reading the faces of his old friend. When he finds something wrong, he quickly changed the subject.
Xia Ting, who had returned to his yard, naturally didn't know all this. As soon as he returned to the yard, he saw a few familiar people standing in his yard talking to Madam Qin.
"Three Seven, Six Qu, Eight Anise, why are you here?" Seeing the person, Xia Ting walked a few steps quickly and spoke with a surprised smile.
The three people named were servants of Xia Mansion in the capital. They usually followed their uncle Yingwu Hou. Xia Ting was really surprised to appear here at this time.
Even if the letters of the two governments usually come, at most one person is a confidant servant. Why are three people coming at once?
All three of them are here, who will serve my uncle?
When the three of them saw Xia Ting coming in, they had already taken a few steps forward and greeted each other. After getting up, Sanqin answered the question: "The masters in the mansion were worried about the Sixth Girl, so they specially sent slaves to see it. It was just because of the heavy rain in the earth, and they delayed the road for a few days. They just arrived today. Don't blame girls, girls."
"Don't blame me, I won't blame me, Baolu, take them to the living room." These three people have been with my uncle for many years, and their identities are different from other servants in the mansion.
Therefore, Xia Ting is particularly polite to them.
However, the three of them adhered to their duties and would not be arrogant because of favor, but obeyed Xia Ting's arrangements in a regular manner.
The three of them came over, of course because Ding's mansion had sent a letter to the capital before, saying that Xia Ting was in poor health. Old Mrs. Xia was worried and wanted to come in person.
If it weren't for the persuasion of the people in the mansion, the old lady would have come seriously.
But when the old lady got older, she had similar problems to Mrs. Ding, and her health was not particularly good.
Especially when it is cloudy and rainy, my body will be out of strength.
With such physical condition, the people in the Xia family dared not let the old lady take a risk and travel far, so they all went out and finally persuaded the people.
He persuaded him to stop, but the old lady was still worried. After thinking about it, the Marquis of Yingwu sent all his confidant servants, which was also considered for the sake of Old Lady An's heart.
Sanqi and a few others came here, and in addition to delivering letters, they also brought a lot of gifts.
If it weren't for all kinds of snacks and snacks, I couldn't help but have a long journey, everyone in the Xia Mansion would have to arrange it.
Even so, I brought a lot of candied fruits, dried fruits and other resistant jerky. I was afraid that Xia Ting would not eat well in Zizhou, so I specially arranged it.
In addition to eating, I also brought a lot of leather, fabrics and jewelry of excellent quality.
It was also difficult for three people to bring two carts of things over. For safety, they specially hired an escort agency to protect each other, for fear of accidents on the way.
I didn’t encounter robbers on the road, but I caught up with the unfriendly weather, so I delayed for a few days.
"Baolu, arrange for them to rest. You can rest for a few days before going back to the capital. It just so happens that I will prepare some things for my grandmother and the others to bring back." Xia Ting was about to go and read the letter, and made arrangements for several servants.
Although the three of them looked very energetic and changed into new clothes, they could not hide their fatigue between their eyebrows and eyes. It can be seen that they were really dusty all the way, and it was not easy.
Xia Ting has always been kind to the people in his house, so he briefly communicated and arranged for them to rest.
The three of them didn't force themselves to hold on. They were really tired along the way because they knew that the old lady was worried. They just wanted to come early and feel relieved when they saw the Sixth Girl.
After sending off the servants, Xia Ting first followed Baoqing to pick out the gifts prepared for Ding's mansion according to the gift list, and then sorted out his own part.
The gifts given to Ding’s Mansion are the daily exchanges between the two mansions, so there is a gift list.
