After the craftsman made an ice lamp for each of the three girls, Cui Jingxuan shouted cold and took Qiao Jingyun and He Guangling away, leaving Li Congxin and Gu Huanyi to be alone.

Li Congxin pulled the tie of the cloak for Gu Huanyi, wrapped her tightly, and said, "This year's snow is really big, be careful not to freeze." ”

Gu Huanyi said: "What is this bit of snow, Liangzhou is much colder than Dijing, the snow on the ground will not melt all winter, and there is ice ballast in the wind." In the past, my mother would detain me in the house and not let me go out after winter, but my brother went ice skating, ice fishing, and snowball fights all day long, but he was hungry for me. I often ask him to sneak me out to play, but he refuses, and only brings me some gadgets when he comes back. When I was 14 years old, he bought me rock candy gourds and kept coaxing me like a child. ”

Sensing that she missed her relatives and hometown, Li Congxin comforted: "In the future, I will accompany you, and I will accompany you whatever you want to play." ”

Gu Huanyi pursed his lips and smiled: "Really? I can't think of a snowball fight in the world, and it's too unstable. ”

Li Congxin smiled and raised his eyebrows: "I was very skinny when I was a child, and my father and mother spoiled me again, and my skin was heavenly, but something happened later, and I became sensible and stable." ”

Gu Huanyi estimated that he was referring to going to Beijing to do proton business, and he really had to be cautious and not to mess around recklessly.

She held his hand and said, "You accompany me, I will accompany you, in Dijing, we only have each other." ”

Li Congxin was a little moved, raised Gu Huanyi's hand and kissed it.

Gu Huanyi was taken aback by him, quickly withdrew his hand, and looked left and right: "What are you doing, is this in the Fenhou Mansion or in the courtyard, what should I do if I am seen!" ”

Li Congxin said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, after today, Mrs. Fenhou will help me go to the Song family to propose marriage." ”

Gu Huanyi glanced at him quickly and said "um" happily.

As Li Congxin said, as soon as Mrs. Fenhou entered the New Year, she brought a letter from King Ming and a heavy gift to the Song Mansion to propose marriage.

Mrs. Song took a group of daughters-in-law and Mrs. Fenhou to discuss lively for a while, symbolically asked a few questions about the man's family, and then agreed.

Mrs. Fenhou said happily: "King Ming has spoken to my Hou Ye before, as long as he has the consent of the Song family, he will personally enter the Beijing Nacai, but he is quite troublesome to enter Beijing, and he needs to invite the emperor first, and it may be after the year." ”

Old Madam Song was very surprised, leaned forward and asked, "King Ming wants to enter Beijing in person?" ”

Since the rebellion of King Yi, Emperor Xuan set a rule that the prince must not be summoned and cannot enter Beijing.

It is not easy for King Ming to enter Beijing to help his son perform six ceremonies, but it shows the importance of King Ming's mansion.

Mrs. Fenhou nodded: "Exactly, I have already written a post of invitation, which is in the hands of my lord, and after I go back, I will ask my lord to send the prince's post to the palace." ”

"Oops! This is really hard work, so busy for the sake of the child! Old Madam Song said with a sigh.

Mrs. Fenhou said with a smile: "He is marrying a daughter-in-law for his son, he should contribute, you just have to wait, why sigh the man first." ”

After talking to the matchmaker here, Mrs. Song sent someone to pick up Gu Huanyi to come to the house to talk, and tell her about the marriage proposal and Nacai clearly.

"The gift of selection will be after the year, and the six rites will be completed in one year, and the wedding date can only be set in the year after next. I thought, your filial piety is still one year away, and it is just right to set it in the year after tomorrow, and then it will be able to be grandly organized. ”

In addition to the first year of filial piety, you can't get married, and you can get married in the second and third years, but no matter how big it is, it will still be affected.

If you marry after three years of filial piety, Gu Huanyi's reputation is also good.

Gu Huanyi blushed and nodded, she had no objection to this.

Old Madam Song said again: "Don't look at it, there is still more than a year, but there are a lot of things to prepare, and now it is a bit of a hurry to prepare your dowry, but fortunately, the things that your mother left for you are ready-made." ”

Buying a dowry is actually a very complicated thing, making precious wood for furniture, cherished cultural relics, gold ornaments for weddings, phoenix crowns and veils for weddings, there are always hundreds of things.

Mrs. Song ordered the steward to take out the dowry list of Gu Huanyi's mother, and said, "You let Song An and Song Ping prepare according to the categories on this list, and grandmother has another box for you here, but this wedding dress is for you to prepare." ”

I am afraid that it will be a little difficult for Gu Huanyi to embroider the wedding dress by hand, but she can go to the master of Jinsang Dress Weaving to discuss what to do.

Coming out of the Song family, Gu Huan's head is too big, and preparing for a marriage is more complicated than managing the industry, it's too trivial!

Gu Huanyi thought that Qiao Jingyun was newly married, so he wanted to ask her to learn from the scriptures, and asked her to go to Jinsang Dress Weaving to discuss the wedding dress.

To go to Jinsang Dress Weaving, He Guangling is naturally indispensable, and the three of them made an appointment to go shopping together.

The brocade mulberry weaving has not yet opened, but the shop has been almost tidyed, and there is a special tea room to receive distinguished guests in the back.

The three of them discussed together, there were more than a dozen styles of wedding dresses, dozens of fabrics, and hundreds of dark embroidery.

Walking out of the brocade mulberry weaving, Qiao Jingyun said with a smile: "Don't worry, if you don't sew it yourself, it's not very urgent now, it's better to take a look at it more." ”

Gu Huanyi nodded, set a few directions, and asked the master to weave the sample cloth out first.

When he came out of the shop, when it was time for lunch, Gu Huanyi said: "I heard that the newly opened Defu Building has good dishes, I am the east, thank the two sisters for taking the time to accompany me, okay?" ”

He Guangling said: "If there is something delicious, it will be good!" ”

Qiao Jingyun said with a little embarrassment: "It's almost the New Year, there are many things at home, it's not good to let my mother-in-law work alone, I'm afraid I have to go back." ”

He Guangling sighed and said to Gu Huanyi: "Look, this is what it looks like to marry someone and become someone's daughter-in-law, why are you all in such a hurry to get married?" ”

Gu Huanyi said: "When you meet someone you like, you won't think like this." ”

He Guangling and Gu Huanyi are close in age, so it's time to say goodbye.

Gu Huanyi heard Qiao Jingyun say that her parents did not dare to make decisions about He Guangling's marriage, but wanted to listen to her little aunt, Princess Xuyang.

Princess Xuyang has a picky eye, picking and choosing, but she hasn't picked a favorite one yet.

However, He Guangling is not in a hurry at the moment, just like the love has not opened, she compares with the young ladies all day long, and she doesn't even look at the young masters.

She is so temperamental, Qiao Jingyun and Gu Huanyi can't say much.

Because the Qilin Society, Jinsang Weaving, and Defu Building are about to start business one after another, and the competent people selected by her and Wang Sheng have also entered Beijing one after another, Gu Huanyi has been worrying about these things for many years.

She often discussed with Wang Sheng, Xingyun, and Xingqing how to check Li Chengxu, although Li Chengxu often went to the Qilin Club to support Xiao Fenghua recently, but their relationship was not enough to talk deeply.

But Feng Hua took over a church meeting of Li Chengxu during the Chinese New Year, and he could enter the government to act, but there was also progress.

However, Gu Huanyi still thought that it was too slow to take such a step-by-step approach.

Wang Sheng persuaded: "Miss, don't be anxious, if you are too hasty, you will startle the snake, if you let Li Chengxu know that we are investigating him, you will lose all your efforts." Playing chess is all about strategy and patience. ”

Gu Huanyi nodded, knowing that he was right.
