Chapter 159 Engagement
Yun Yi smiled and said, "People from both families want to invite each other. Jing Rui said that this engagement is a lifelong event, so try to do it well."
After hearing this, Aunt Fang praised: "Jing Rui is a kind person. If you get married in the future, your life will definitely be sweet."
Yun Yi had a slightly shy face and smiled slightly: "Then I'll borrow my aunt's good words."
As the two of them talked, their hands began to get busy.
After a while, the head of the Xiao family also sent several daughters-in-law from the family to help. After all, the other side branches of the Xiao family were implicated and convicted because of them. Although his son was also plotted against, it was because he was stupid and he had to suffer at the moment.
What Xiao Renli said before was not wrong. After all, they owe other people in the Xiao family. Now they can only help one after another, which is atonement.
It was very busy here, and Jing Rui was also preparing without stopping.
When it was Si, Jing Rui brought Cao Qianhu with him, and his brothers carrying betrothal gifts were followed behind him.
When Cao Qianhu entered the door, he saw Xiao Wanshan, the head of the Xiao family, and said with a fist: "I am entrusted to propose marriage today and hired him. This is the first time in my life that I have been a matchmaker. If you have any shortcomings, please forgive me."
The people in the courtyard were supposed to kneel down, but Cao Qianhu stopped him: "Now the Japanese officials come to propose marriage as matchmakers, hire and drink engagement wine. Everyone does not have to be too polite or be restrained."
Jing Rui and the others followed many people who came to watch the fun. Xiao Chenrui received the order from his sister and brought the malt sugar that had been prepared and distributed to the people who came to join in the fun, so that everyone could enjoy the joy.
Anyway, things have been decided, and today it is just a formality. Cao Qianhu and the head of the Xiao family quickly decided on the matter.
Just then, Jing Rui asked them to wait for a while, and saw him leaving the yard, and soon helped the old lady of the Xiao family walk in.
Yun Yi, who came out to deliver things, was stunned at first when she saw her grandmother, then she felt happy. She looked at Jing Rui with gratitude and walked over quickly: "Grandma, you are here, sit in it."
With the addition of the old lady of the Xiao family, this engagement was perfect.
Jing Rui asked someone to open the betrothal gift he brought. In addition to the tea, wine, sugar, wedding cake, noodles, rice, fish, and meat, he also prepared a set of silver jewelry and a set of gold jewelry. Each set has a pair of hairpin, a pair of step shaking, an earring, and a pair of bracelets.
This would definitely not be considered a big deal if it were in the capital, but it was really a big deal in the northern border.
I can buy these, but I still have the silver reward that I brought back by Cao Qianhu last time. I feel confident, so yesterday Yun Yi said she was getting married today, and Jing Rui did not object.
Soon the two exchanged Geng Tie, and the marriage was settled. From then on, the two of them could finally get in and outright contact.
Afterwards, the food and drinks were served, and there was a lively place where the glasses were filled with cups and cups, but the Xiao family and the Jing family were all dark.
The Jing family was so angry that they didn't want the money for selling prey, so they even paid six taels of silver for free. The most annoying thing was not this. Jing Hongnan, who took over the position of Jing Rui's Xiaoqi, happened to go home last night.
He was even more worried than the Jing family because his dozen people were not convinced by him at all, and he could not beat those people, so he was so angry that he was so angry.
