On the second day of October, the weather is sunny and cloudless, it is really a good day to get married, Baozhi got up early and was served by the maid to groom and make, she was still in the filial piety period for a while, and the auspicious time could not participate, so now she was going to congratulate her early, the maids and women who met on the road were full of joy, the closer to Luohua's yard, the more lively they became, and the maids who entered the house were serving Luohua in an orderly manner, and the maid who played the curtain for Baozhi reported that Bao girl was coming, Luohua smiled: "Why is Bao'er so early." ”

Sister Luohua's boudoir surrounded by pearls and greens was empty, many customary things were carried to the Hou Mansion with the dowry, and Baozhi's heart was also empty, Sister Luohua ended up marrying the negative man, tears rolled in her eyes: "I won't be able to come over for a while, come and see my sister early, sister, you will definitely have a good life in the future." Baozhi silently said to herself in her heart that this time she must let her sister live a good life.

Luo Hua was said by one of the treasures that he gradually felt a sour feeling of wanting to marry, the two sisters hugged each other and cried silently, and the maid Cuizhu next to Luo Hua persuaded the two to leave, and took the little maid to go down to fetch water to clean the faces of the two again.

Du Ruo joked on the side: "Miss Cousin, our girl wanted to congratulate you today all night last night, girl, tell Cousin about the good words you thought, and let us learn and learn." Luo Hua's eyes were shining and he looked at Bao Zhi with anticipation, and Bao Zhi cried and smiled shyly after listening to Du Ruo's words: "If you are coarse, then what has become of the others." Then he said to Luo Hua: "Sister Luohua, I, I wish you and your brother-in-law to grow old together, Qin Se and Ming, love for the flounder, auspicious leaves and mantis, and forever tie the knot." ”

Luo Hua thought that he was going to a strange place and was about to get married, and he was looking forward to the future and hesitating, and there were tears in his eyes, and he pressed the corner of his eye with a handkerchief: "You don't think these words will be thought about all night." ”

Baozhi pursed his lips and smiled, the two sisters talked for a while, seeing that Luohua still had a lot to prepare, Baozhi took his leave, and went to Mrs. Zhao's to invite An, everyone had breakfast, Mrs. Quanfu invited by the Hou Mansion Mrs. Yong'anbo arrived, Baozhi and his mother avoided going out during the filial piety period, and just returned to Zhiting Courtyard and heard that Tang Wan was coming, Tang Wan asked Mrs. Zhao to come to find Baozhi, and as soon as she entered the door, she smiled: "Baozhi, my sister is here, come out quickly." I brought you a lot of the Lion Peak Longjing you mentioned last time. ”

Bao Zhimu, her sister is too proud, she just talked about it that time, she kept it in mind, this Shifeng Longjing is not something you can buy if you want to, it produces so little every year, and the tribute is not enough, where did the little girl get it?

Tang Wan sat next to Baozhi by herself, picked up the tea on the maid and drank it: "This tea is really hard to find, I asked my little maid to find a lot of places, and in the end, guess where you got it, you definitely can't guess." Put down the teacup and let Du Ruo go and take the Longjing she brought to make tea again, "Do you know, your Luohua sister's one hundred and twenty-eight dowry is a sensation in the capital, although most of the young ladies of the princely and princely families marry one hundred and twenty-eight dowry, but your uncle is a three-grade waiter, marrying a daughter is so extravagant, everyone is spreading that the oil and water in this Ministry of Industry is probably more than that of the Ministry of Households, I heard my father say that the Holy Lord is still teasing your uncle in the court." ”

Baozhi didn't quite understand: "Why does the saint still care about people marrying their daughters?" Shouldn't the emperor only care about the community, is there anything wrong with Sister Luohua's one hundred and twenty-eight dowry, is it trespassing? And where did you get this tea, I've heard that it's rare. ”

"Don't worry, our emperor is the most benevolent, knowing that your grandfather's ancestors were in business, and his family was quite wealthy, and he didn't say anything about your uncle buying so much dowry for his daughter, don't you worry, don't you still have Zhongyi Hou, although Cui Shaojie is a straw bag, but his father is not, I heard that the emperor also rewarded Zhongyi Hou with silver on the spot, saying that the dowry purchased by his in-laws is so rich, his family's wedding can't be shabby, and the saint is really good to this Zhongyi Hou family." Picked up the Shifeng Longjing tea that had just come up, closed his eyes and sniffed, and pecked in small sips: "Baozhi, you also try it, the tea you said is really good, I didn't want to taste it at home, except for my grandmother and my mother, the rest was brought to you untouched." ”

Unexpectedly, Xiaowu was so sincere to herself, and Baozhi was greatly moved: "Then you take some back, don't give them all to me." ”

Tang Wan smiled: "If I want to drink to my mother, I want to go to Sister Luohua's to see the excitement, and I'll tell you the situation over there when I come back in a while, you can taste tea slowly." With that, he got up and strode out.

"You haven't told me where to get the tea." Bao Zhi shouted in a low voice.

Tang Wan continued to stride out without looking back: "I'll talk to you when I come back later." The maid behind him followed the usual brisk pace, and the picture was really funny.

Baozhi shook his head helplessly, recalling in his mind who Xiao Wan married in his previous life, why didn't he have any impression at all, he used to care too little about people other than Chu Yao.
