Chapter 253: Settled
It wasn't until ten in the evening that Peng Yu'an came in the expectant gaze of star fruit.
He was in the carriage of the Peng family, with two maids waiting in front of him, four servants and a groom behind him. This is the most grand time he has come to Xiaomiao Village. It can be seen that what Peng Cheng said yesterday is true.
"Sister Carambola!" Peng Yu'an jumped out of the car with a happy face: "Why are you standing here?" ”
"Didn't I come to greet you?" Carambola was happy: "Yesterday, your housekeeper came and said that you were coming today." What's the matter, when I heard that it was the case, the old lady was relieved? ”
"Hmm." Peng Yu'an nodded happily: "Otherwise, how can you let me out?" Give me such a battle? As he spoke, his eyes swept around the sisters, and he said, "Why don't you see Mi Tao?" ”
"She, she said that she didn't want to come to greet you, so it was better to embroider female red in the house." Cherry grinned and interjected as she hugged the cotton peach's arm.
"Go, don't mess around here. Mi Yang is still angry about this. I tossed back and forth several times, and I didn't know what the old lady meant after all. Carambola glared into the room and said with a smile: "She's just pretending, just coaxing." Let's go inside. ”
"Hey, yes, yes." Peng Yu'an waved his hand at the groom, signaled to stop the carriage away, left a few attendants outside, and followed the star fruit into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, Zhou Mingyuan was sitting leisurely on the wooden couch drinking wine from nowhere, and walnuts were sweeping the yard.
"Brother Peng!" As soon as Peng Yu'an entered the door, the walnuts screamed sweetly.
"Hey, good walnuts, put the broom there, stay for a while, Brother Peng will come." Peng Yu'an was talking to Walnut, and his eyes quietly slipped around Zhou Mingyuan. secretly said in his heart, he was a man he didn't know. Last time, he almost fought with Song Han when he entered the hospital, only to find out later that the two not only did not have a hostile relationship, but they might also become relatives and regret it. Now, there's another man in the courtyard...... If you look at it carefully, look at your appearance and temperament, it's a good one.
Be...... Cotton boll? Cherry? Peng Yu nodded secretly with peace of mind, in this courtyard, there are only these two who are suitable for age, but looking at the eyes of Mian Tao and Song Han last time, it should be that Mian Tao also has a little meaning, in such a short period of time, there should be no one else, this person...... It's supposed to be for the cherries.
Cherry...... Peng Yu'an looked back at Cherry, who was close to the groom and a few entourages outside the courtyard, how could she look at the difference between her and this man, but it was a pity that Cherry was such an elf and eccentric girl...... Thinking like this, Peng Yu'an shook his head slightly.
"Nodding his head again, shaking his head again, what does this brother want to say?" Zhou Mingyuan poured himself a drink unhurriedly, and said with a light smile.
Carambola was afraid that the scene would happen again, so she hurriedly introduced before Peng Yu'an spoke: "Yu'an, this is the son of the Zhou family, no more entanglement, stay here for a few days." Zhou Gongzi, this is the young master of the Peng family, and he is our second aunt in the future. ”
"Hehe" Zhou Mingyuan looked at Peng Yu'an with displeasure or smile, and habitually nodded with the posture of a superior: "Hmm." People are good. ”
Peng Yu'an is also a character in this town, where have you heard others talk to him like this? In addition, he felt that he couldn't afford to be worthy of cherries, so he frowned unceremoniously: "Brother Zhou is also a talent, why praise me?" ”
Zhou Mingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked Peng Yu'an up and down with a smile, and stopped talking, only laughing.
Peng Yu'an looked angry and wanted to say something more, so he asked the star fruit and cotton peach to drag them into the house.
Mi Tao was angry in the back room. Peng Yu'an went in, and somehow coaxed her, it took a long time to coax her out.
Except for Zhou Mingyuan and Walnut, several people sat around the table in the hall and began to listen to the news brought by Peng Yu'an.
"Grandmother said that she would no longer block my marriage to Mi Tao. Moreover, even if the two taels of silver have been made up, which is enough to show your sincerity and ability, she will not ask how much Mi Tao's dowry is worth, and the two thousand silver can be kept. Moreover, she also said that in this marriage, how to hold it and when it will be held, it is up to Mi Tao and me to have the final say!! ”
"Good and decent, how can this be? Why did you suddenly let go? "Cotton peach is strange.
"Didn't you go and deliver the silver yesterday and touched my grandmother?" Peng Yu'an looked unaware: "Yesterday you gave the silver in the morning, and I was lifted in the afternoon." Today, my grandmother came to me for a long talk and told me about it. Presumably, she was satisfied with this. ”
"Presumably? You don't know yet, do you? Mi Tao was not angry: "When the eldest sister and the third child went to send money, your grandmother was cheating, and she didn't even admit that there was anything wrong with it at that time, and the angry eldest sister came back and shed tears!! What is it that touches this? I think she just expected that we wouldn't be able to make up the money, so she deliberately made things difficult. Seeing that we had collected the money, we turned around and denied it. ”
"Is that so?" Peng Yu'an paused in surprise, a little incredulous: "Grandmother, she ......"
"Brother Peng, this is indeed the case. I'm afraid your grandmother originally wanted to hide this from you, but then she didn't know what happened, and she changed her mind and got this one. What matters now is that we don't know why she suddenly relented, even the details of the marriage are up to you, and this is too loose. I'm worried, it's a trick again. The cotton peach face was melancholy: "This time, we'd better cut the mess quickly, and immediately set the approaching time, the closer the better, so as to save the mess again." ”
"You're right." Peng Yu'an wrinkled his eyebrows and pondered: "This matter, it was finally tossed to appear in this result, and it really can't be delayed any longer." As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glanced at Mi Tao: "Back then, most of my Peng family's property was supported by my grandmother, and she was not a simple character." I'm ...... with Mi Tao Only by getting married as soon as possible can we prevent future troubles. ”
Hearing him say it so bluntly, Mi Tao's face turned red, turned her face away, and said, "Go!" Do you have the final say in this matter? I haven't agreed yet! ”
"This is not the time for you to be sexual. Good sister, now that Wan has to recognize the situation, you and Yu An are in love, but after all, there are too many things in between, so you must seize the opportunity. Carambola sighed softly, and looked at Peng Yu'an again: "If you don't see that you are an only son, or no matter how much you like it, I won't allow Mi Tao to follow you." In this way, although it is a big family, at least there is no noise from the uncle and uncle, but it is quieter. ”
"Yes, yes." Peng Yu'an only nodded: "Eldest sister, then look at the time ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was cut off by Mi Tao's glare: "Eldest sister? Who's the eldest sister you call, change your name now, who will allow it......"
"Hurry up and give birth to yourself! Cotton Peach, pull her into the back room!! Carambola glared at her fiercely, then turned her head, changed her face to a light smile, and said softly: "Even if you want to be fast, then let's just go faster!" Tell me, how many days will it take for you to get married? ”
"It's been about three days." Peng Yu'an thought about it carefully.
"Then ......" star fruit also calculated carefully, and said: "The big three rites and the small three ceremonies can be squeezed into five days, what are the days...... Five days later, it happens to be the sixth day of the new year, and I will go to the old man to calculate it, if the day is good, why don't we do it? ”
"Five days? It's just right, I'm here completely" Peng Yu'an clapped his hands lightly: "Then Sister Ma Lao will ask someone to calculate, if it is suitable, then it will be five days." I'll go back to my grandmother tomorrow. Cut through the mess quickly and save any more mess. ”
The two hit it off, completely ignoring Mi Tao's resistance from the back room.
"Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry, right?" Cherry said tentatively. She knew what was going on, and she knew that this was not the old lady's tricks, so she didn't have to be in such a hurry. She is not mentally ready to marry her second sister, and she is still reluctant.
"What's not in a hurry? I'm in a hurry! If it weren't for the six rites, I would have married her off in three days!! Carambola gritted her teeth viciously: "For her sake, I'm really worried about death." If she doesn't marry again, I won't have the heart to take care of the child in my belly. Besides, she's married, and there's only three of you left, so I can worry less. ”
Cherry obediently shut up. On the issue of the marriage of several sisters, you must not go against the eldest sister. She is good at everything on weekdays, but once she encounters this, no one can please her. What's more, Cherry also feels that although she is reluctant, Mi Tao should indeed get married. The time between her and Peng Yu'an is not short, and it is not a way to delay it any longer. Besides, her fiery temperament, maybe she can be more restrained after marriage and change it?
"Then it's decided, I'll go find someone to count the days now, and you wait a while. I'll go back tonight after dinner here, and I'll take the days back by the way. If it goes well, let's start the little three ceremonies the day after tomorrow. ”
"Okay." Peng Yu'an nodded.
Carambola was excited, got up neatly, cleaned up, brought some silver taels, and went out with walnuts.
Cotton Peach came out of the back room and busily picked up the vegetables with Cherry. With so many people eating, there are a lot of dishes to stir-fry.
Mi Tao poked her head out from behind the curtain and saw that there was only one Peng Yu'an sitting in the hall, so she whispered hello to him: "Hey, come here"
"What's the matter?" Peng Yu'an hurriedly walked to the door and smiled: "This matter is really unavoidable, don't be angry." We can just take such an opportunity, if we can't seize it, we don't know when we will go back. ”
"That's not what I'm talking about, it's up to you to make it, I don't care." Mi Tao rolled her eyes.
"What's that?"
"I heard that there is a blacksmith surnamed Yu who has taken a job in your house?" Mi Tao was awkward for a while, and said stiffly.
