On the same day, Deng entrusted Liu Xiniang and asked her to go to Liuyang County to ask the Ding family, and got a reply the next day, Miss Ding was willing to go to the north with Qu for a long time.

Deng's and Qu's were overjoyed.

Within three days, the Qu family gave the Ding family a dowry of 1,000 taels of silver coins and items. The two families exchanged the birthdays of both parties.

Because they were both second marriages, Qu Kuaishou was not at home, and Qu didn't want to hold a big wedding banquet for a long time, so he set up five tables at Qu's house and invited relatives from the Li family, Qin Yue's family and Qujia Village.

Qu Changchang and Li went to Liuyang County to take the bride Ding from the Ding Mansion to the Qu family.

Ding's father and mother stayed at Ding's house to receive relatives and friends, and her two brothers, two sisters-in-law, a younger brother, and four nephews all came over.

"What does the bride look like?" He Yiyang stood outside the courtyard, curiously watching the red-covered Ding family being sent into the wedding room by her dowry slave.

It's the first time he's seen a marryman when he's grown so big.

"Let's go, poke the paper window and see the bride." Li Yunxiao took He Yiyang's hand and slipped out of the crowd.

The two of them quietly walked into the courtyard of the second entrance, and saw that the door of the happy house was open, and several slaves and maids of the Ding family were in and out, and they could see the bride without poking the paper window at all, so they ran in excitedly.

Ding is not tall, his upper body is covered by a wedding dress and a red kerchief, and his hands are also covered by the sleeves of the wide red wedding dress, and he can't see a little skin.

"Let's go. Come back in the evening. Li Yunxiao pulled He Yiyang to leave.

He Yiyang quickly picked up the weighing rod on the table and picked up Ding's red handkerchief, revealing her face with slender eyes and an ordinary appearance coated in fat powder.

The two slaves and maids in the house were holding copper basins and benches in their hands, and exclaimed: "My God, this little young master, Xipa is not something you can pick!" ”

"Quickly put the scale rod down."

"Little thin man, you're messing around again!" Li Yunxiao hurriedly knocked down He Yiyang's right hand holding the scale pole, bowed to the Ding family, and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry." ”

He Yiyang's face was pale, and he was pulled out of the house by Li Yunxiao for a good training in the courtyard.

"Our custom here in Tanzhou, the bride's red handkerchief has to be lifted by the groom official himself with a weighing rod, indicating that the future days are satisfactory, if it is lifted by others, it will be unlucky. Why are you so ignorant? ”

"Didn't I want to see what the bride looked like?"

Li Yunxiao said angrily: "Let my mother and my sister know about this, I have to ask you to follow me!" ”

He Yiyang lowered his head and said, "One person does things and one person does it." Let my aunt and Xiaojing scold me. ”

Li Yunxiao slapped He Yiyang on the shoulder with his right fist, and said loudly: "I told you well, there are difficulties and difficulties, and blessings are shared." ”

He Yiyang raised his head and smiled, and whispered, "The bride is not beautiful." ”

Li Yunxiao chuckled a few times, rolled his eyes, and said, "My uncle was born like that, and they are also a good match." ”

He Yiyang rubbed his shoulder, which was hurt by Li Yunxiao just now, and said slowly: "I see that your aunt is not a simple person. I lifted her red kerchief, and she was not surprised or afraid. ”

Li Yunxiao chuckled, "You're so stupid." You just walked up to your aunt, and although she was covered with a red veil, her eyes could see your feet! ”

"She could see my feet, but she certainly didn't expect me to her hijab."

"That's right." Li Yunxiao looked at Li Huan in front of Li Jingjing and hurriedly walked over, and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

After Li Huan saluted, he said, "There is a wedding banquet ahead, and Miss asked me to quickly find you to sit down." ”

A middle-aged slave maid with slightly dark skin from the Ding clan walked out quickly and stopped Li Huan and asked, "I don't know where the two young masters are just now?" ”

Li Huan replied truthfully.

The slave maid was about to sue He Yiyang for the situation, but the Ding family sent another slave and maid out to rush in front of her and said: "It turned out to be the prince and the young master Murong, looking at the handsome appearance and the style of the whole body, it is really excellent." ”

Li Huan couldn't see that there was something inside, but the Ding family didn't want the slave to say it, so he couldn't ask more.

Li Huan returned to the front hall and mentioned the matter to Li Jingjing.

Li Yunxiao and He Yiyang, who were eating the wedding wine, immediately felt that they were being stared at by some terrible person, and when they looked up, they saw Li Jingjing staring at them at the opposite wine table, and lowered their heads weakly.

That night, everyone made trouble in the cave room, and Li Jingjing, in order to punish He Yiyang and Li Yunxiao, just didn't let them participate, and threatened: "If you dare to go, I will immediately report this matter to my mother when I go home!" ”

He Yiyang begged: "Good Jing Niang, I will take a look at the head office outside the happy house with the little fat man, right?" ”

Li Jingjing is so easy to speak, and shook her head very firmly: "No." ”

When He Yiyang was full of disappointment, a word came from the Xifang that the haunted room was canceled, and he wanted to see the bride again.

He immediately smiled proudly: "I've seen it all, and the bride looks like that." Looking at Li Jingjing, who was wearing a purple dress like a little fairy, she shook her head and said loudly: "The bride is not as good-looking as Xiaojingniang." Xiao Jing Niang, one day you will wear a wedding dress for me and the little fat man. ”

Li Jingjing's face was slightly red with shame, she took a sip, turned around and left.

Li Yunxiao chuckled, poked He Yiyang's chest with his elbow, and said proudly: "My sister is beautiful, and she is even more beautiful when she wears a wedding dress." My sister is mine. ”

Early the next morning, Qu Changjiu got up with Ding.

Deng didn't sleep much all night, anxious to see what his new daughter-in-law looked like, and when he saw Ding's appearance, he was an ordinary person, but he was younger than he imagined, and then he saw Qu Changjiu in good spirits, like a few years younger, and he was even happier.

As the new daughter-in-law, Ding knelt down and served tea to Deng with both hands, his mouth was like honey, and he said something that everyone would be happy to listen to.

She brought a lot of dowry, and 30,000 taels of silver tickets. The Ding family sent her four slaves and maidservants and two rough envoys.

But she was not proud of it, she didn't have to say anything to Qu for a long time, and she was very respectful to the Deng family.

"Hurry up. Your father and I are waiting for you to spread out our Qu family. Deng was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and originally thought that according to the rules, let Ding kowtow to the late Lin tablet for tea, and press Ding, seeing that Ding was so sensible, he pretended to forget this rule.

Xiao Deng's eyes darkened a little.

It was Qu Duo, Xiao Deng's, Qu Guangyao, and Qu Guangzong's turn to bow and salute Ding's.

Ding was very atmospheric, and gave Qu Duo a hundred taels of silver tickets, Xiao Deng's a gold bracelet inlaid with sapphires, and two five taels of gold for each of the two little guys.

Seeing that the Ding family was so good to Quduo's family, Deng gave three hundred taels of things as a gift, and when he was excited, he went to the bedroom, opened the treasure chest with the key, and took out a red gold velvet box.

Deng Xing rushed back to the hall, put the box in Ding's warm hand and did not let go, and said very excitedly: "This is the most valuable item in our family. I'll give it to you with your dad today. You keep it well, and you will give it to your children and grandchildren for a long time in the future, and you must not pass it on. ”

Ding glanced at Qu Changchang shyly, and then asked more and more respectfully, "Mother, what is this?" ”

"This is given to me by the palace, and this is the only one in our family." Deng patted the back of Ding's hand and told her to put it away quickly.

"You take it." Qu Changchang said in his heart: You are worthy of this rare price, and the poisonous woman of the Lin family is not worthy at all.

Ding's slave couldn't help but be overjoyed, and even a person like Ding's who was moody and invisible, also showed a bright and happy smile.

Xiao Deng stared at the box in Ding's hand, and his eyes were about to fall. She remembered very clearly that Deng had clearly promised that the contents of the box would be passed on to her.

Not only Xiao Deng's family, but even Qu Duo's face was extremely bad, but he never thought that he was the eldest grandson, except for this royal gold bracelet, everything existing in the Qu family was inherited by him, and he never thought that he was so big, he had two sons, and he never made a penny for the Qu family.

Ding held the box tightly, knelt down and kowtowed to Deng three more times.

Deng Shi put his hands together and said with a smile: "Yesterday, your aunt's family except for your younger brother and sister He County Lord was pregnant, and all the rest arrived. They drank the wine and did not make a hole in the house. I thought about it for a while, had breakfast, and took you to the Hou Mansion to give tea to your aunt to recognize relatives. ”

Ding nodded hurriedly, his very docile appearance attracted the likes of Deng and Qu Changjiu.

Xiao Deng didn't want to go with him, but he just wanted to know what the Ding family would give to the Li family's dragon and phoenix fetus, what gifts the Li family would give to the Ding family, and what the Li family's attitude towards the Ding family was, so he took his two sons to the Hou Mansion with a twelve-point spirit.

Yesterday, the Deng family greeted the Qu family, and the Li family was waiting in the mansion on purpose.

Li Yunxiao has already met Ding's family, and there is no sense of freshness.

No one else in the Li family has seen it, and this is the first time I have seen the bride Ding, so I won't stare at her politely and closely, just take a few more looks.

Ding has a round face unique to Hunan Daoists, slender eyes, a slightly collapsed nose, skin that is neither black nor yellow, a few freckles on his cheeks covered by thin powder, and his lips are not thick or thin.

She deliberately wore a crimson long skirt today, only wearing a crested golden step, and smiled without showing her teeth, if she didn't know the details of the Ding family, she would think that she was from a scholarly family.

Qu Changjiu's back has not been hunched since he was married to the Ding family, and this time he is even more straight, and his face, which has a few wrinkles crawling at the corners of his eyes, is always smiling with joy, and he is wearing a brand-new crimson robe, which is much better looking and younger than when he fell off the list.

Deng introduced Ding: "This is your father's only sister. ”

Ding immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "My nephew and daughter-in-law have seen my aunt." ”

Seeing that the Ding family was not beautiful but knew how to be polite and steady, Qu nodded slightly and said, "Hurry up." In the future, you will live a good life with Changjiu. ”

The big slave of the Qu clan carried a tray with a rosewood box in it.

Qu handed the rosewood box to Ding, and said with a smile: "This is a necklace of Dongzhu given to me by the queen, I am old, and I will give it to you young people to wear." ”

Ding's dowry included a string of white Dongzhu bracelets, and he wore a plain skirt in the summer, wearing it on his wrist, and he was quiet and atmospheric.

The Dongzhu necklace given by Qu is much better than Ding's Dongzhu bracelet, worth a thousand taels of silver, and can be used as an heirloom of the Qu family.

The smile on Xiao Deng's face was a little stiff. Qu Duo just drank tea and didn't say anything.

Li Jingjing knew last night that Qu was going to give Ding's Dongzhu necklace.

Empress Murong Ying was grateful to the Li Mansion for raising her son and giving jewelry every New Year's holiday. He Dong also gave rare toys and silver coins in the name of the imperial court.

In the year that Li Bing was not in the mansion, the Li family received a lot of good treasures.

Deng introduced He to Ding.

"Brother and sister, I prepared a gift for you before, don't dislike it." Ding turned around and took a pair of cyan ancient jade bracelets from the slave behind him and put them in He's hand.

Deng was very satisfied with Ding's doing. Qu Changchang also felt that he had face.

This kind of thing had never been done by the Lin family before, not even a single needle and thread had ever been sent. Don't talk about family background, just talk about being a person, Ding's is much stronger than Lin's.

"Thank you sister-in-law for thinking about me, how can I dislike it, so I'll wear one for you to see." He picked up a jade bracelet and put it on his wrist, which was as white as jade, and stretched it out to Ding's eyes for her to see.

Ding smiled: "My younger brother and sister are naturally beautiful, they look good when they wear anything, my bracelet is ordinary, and it is beautiful and unusual when you wear it." ”

He secretly praised Ding's ability to speak, and immediately took out a set of exquisite twelve pieces of gold and jade to give to him.

It was the turn of Li Quai, the dragon and phoenix fetus, and Ding also prepared gifts for the three of them.

Li Quzhi and Li Yunxiao each got an ancient jade pendant, and Li Jingjing got a pair of jade Ruyi. The three of them accepted the gifts, and Li Qu returned a gold hand mirror inlaid with gems, and the dragon and phoenix fetuses were rude because they were juniors.

Ding finally took out a piece of white ancient jade pendant, looked at Qu and He, and said, "I heard that there is a small man at home, and I also prepared a small toy for him, which is the same as Xiao's nephew's. ”

"Uncle Niang also prepared a meeting gift for the little thin man. I'm going to call him. Li Yunxiao smiled and walked out of the living room quickly.

When he was young, He Yiyang and Li Yunxiao came side by side. Ding smiled and gave the jade pendant to He Yiyang.

He Yiyang accepted the gift, feeling that he was too naughty to be sorry for the Ding family yesterday, so he arched his hand and said: "I wish my aunt and uncle a satisfactory life." ”

He glanced at the pale little Deng and the listless Qu Duo, and said in a loud voice, "Okay." Yang Yanzi said it well. In the future, whether my brother and sister-in-law are in Tanzhou or going to Northland, my life will be satisfactory. ”

The two families talked together and had a lively lunch, which was very harmonious.

After the Qu family left, Li Jingjing said in front of the He family: "I see that Ding Boniang is much better than the one who went." ”

He Shi disagreed, and said slowly: "It's good that there is no conflict of interest at the moment. If Ding gives birth to a son in the future, it will be difficult to say. ”

Li Jingjing didn't mention this matter anymore and asked, "Mother, I'm going to hold a tea party at home on the day the school is closed, please invite the teacher of the school." Do you like it or not? ”

He put his arms around his little daughter and said with a smile: "There is nothing bad about it." ”

"I don't know if it's a little brother or a little sister?" Li Jingjing touched He's bulging belly, and on a whim, diagnosed He's pulse.

He raised his eyebrows and said confidently: "I must be pregnant with your little brother." ”

Li Jingjing looked up and asked, "How do you know?" ”

He whispered in Li Jingjing's ear: "In your grandfather's letter to your father, he said that he had a hexagram specifically for my baby, and it must be a baby boy." ”

"Grandpa still divination?" Li Jingjing was very surprised.

Li Bing had been at home for months and had never heard him say about it. She hadn't heard He Jingyan say anything about it. This is really hidden from the master and apprentice.

He Shi's eyes were strange, and he said softly: "Your grandfather's hexagram is extremely accurate, but it is rarely counted. Don't tell anyone about it. ”

Li Jingjing lowered her head and thought about it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Mother, no wonder grandpa is so bold to fall from the Baizhang cliff, it turns out that he has already calculated that he can survive." ”

Ten days later, Ding actually persuaded Qu Changjiu to persuade Deng, and the three of them left Tanzhou together and went to the north.

Every day, Qu went to study in the academy, and the only big Qu family was Xiao Deng, their two children and four slaves.

Xiao Deng's personality is introverted, so he doesn't like to talk even more, and he doesn't go to Li's house to walk around.

However, the Qu family and the He family remembered Deng's entrustment, and from time to time sent slaves and maids to send food and clothing to the little Deng family.

Xiao Deng didn't know how to come to the Li family to thank him, and Qu Duo didn't understand human accidents.

The couple did not visit Qu and He for several months. The people of Qujia Village are more diligent than them and the Li family.

In the blink of an eye, the autumn scientific examination came, and Qin Minye listened to He Huishu's words and did not go to Chang'an to participate in the examination.

Qin Minye's friend Qi Ziyang went, ranked in the top ten in the exam, and was sent by He Dong to the north to serve as the county commander. Before Qi Ziyang took office, he married the fourth daughter of Dr. Ding of Tanzhou Academy, and then the husband and wife went to the north together.

Qin Shanyi's father, Qin Erhui, ranked eighty-fifth in the exam. Li Jingjing made a twist and asked Qin Er to go to the fiefdom of Liuyang County as a county commander, and He Dongyun agreed.

Qu Dingshan and Qu Dinglin of the Qu clan were all admitted to the Jinshi, and their rankings were slightly higher than those of Qin Er. The two listened to the old patriarch's words and took the initiative to go to the Northland.

At the beginning of October, the first batch of female students of the Tanzhou Women's Skills School graduated, half of the female students chose to return to their hometowns, and half signed short-term contracts with various governments for a period of two to five years.

It snowed lightly in the morning, and when it fell to the ground, it melted into the mud, and in the afternoon it snowed heavily.

Non-slip mats are laid outside the Li Mansion and in every corridor of Tanzhou Academy.

He had a terrifying stomach and was supported by Li Jingjing and walked back and forth in the warm side hall.

"Mother, exercise more before giving birth to a good baby."

"Mother, are you hungry?"

"Mother, do you want to be relieved?"

He enjoyed the filial piety of his youngest daughter and asked, "My Jing Niang, you bring a mirror to me to see, am I so ugly?" ”

Li Jingjing showed a coquettish smile and coaxed: "Don't look at it. Niang is the most beautiful. ”

Since He's seven months pregnant, Li Jingjing has not taken emergency patients, and the pharmacy has been handed over to Dr. Liu and Dr. Li Shiyun.

She accompanies the He family every day, longer than Li Laoshi and the He family.

In the evening, the master of Taimingguan's Zifeng Guan came with two Daogu doctors and apprentices in the snow.

Li honestly said gratefully: "Seven years ago, the Lord Guan delivered my wife, and this time I am still bothering you. ”

Zifeng Guan smiled and said, "If you don't send someone to invite me to deliver Mrs. this time, I will still be angry!" ”

Two days passed without incident, and late at night on the third day, when people were the most sleepy, He woke up from a dream and found that he was wet and red below, and he didn't know when it happened, so he quickly woke up Li Laoshi, who was snoring and sleeping deeply.

After a while, He's screams came out of the delivery room, and Qu's, Li Qu's disease, Long Feng's fetus, and He Yiyang got up one after another and ran outside the delivery room to wait anxiously and worriedly.
