Chapter Seventy-Six: Liu Anlan Settles Marriage
Mrs. Wang entered the Qiu Mansion with a smile.
As soon as Mrs. Wang entered the door, she saw Qiu Xiancha's wife, Xu, Yanyan and Yingchun making wontons. smiled and said: Oh, you are all busy. Today, I'm also blessed, I'm going to eat wontons at your house, haha.
Mrs. Qiu Xu reluctantly said: The girl's family let them learn a little, so as not to have to wait for someone to wait when they get it, you sit down.
As soon as she saw the matchmaker Wang come in, Yanyan threw half of the unwrapped wontons on the table and entered the inner room in a huff. She felt a little annoyed with Mrs. Wang, and ran to her house again and again when she had nothing to do, she was really full.
Mrs. Wang sat on the board, and said to Mrs. Qiu Xiancha Xu with a smile: "Oh, Mrs. Qiu, my old mother is a little ignorant, if it is someone else's family, I will forget it." I couldn't shirk his family, so I had to be cheeky and come again.
Xu smiled and said: Which one is driving you? We have said many times that the girl is still young and a little reluctant.
Mrs. Wang also said: Yes, I also said the same thing to them. But Mrs. Liu insisted that I come over, she said, girls have to get married at the age of 100, and there are many doll relatives, not to mention that now it is a marriage and not an immediate marriage. You want me to come and ask for a New Year's Geng.
As soon as Xu heard that it was the Liu family, he said to Yingchun: Why don't you go and make tea for Granny Wang. Hey, hey, wait, let's cook a few hard-boiled eggs for Granny Wang first.
Granny Wang smiled and said: Oh, I don't need it, Mrs. Qiu is still so polite.
Granny Wang said again: The son of the Liu family is smart, handsome, and sven. I think it's a good match for your young lady.
Xu said with a smile: Our two families were originally world friends, but we know the roots. The two of them have often played together since they were children, and they are also childhood sweethearts. It depends on whether the 'eight characters' match or not.
Yingchun came out with a bowl of boiled eggs, and when he heard that it was Liu Gongzi, he asked a lot: Liu Gongzi you are talking about, I don't know which Liu family?
Granny Wang smiled: You girl doesn't see the world, I don't know which one of the Liu family in Nanxun Town doesn't know, Liu Yong's family is.
Yingchun smiled: Oh, it turned out to be this Liu family. After that, go.
Xu smiled and took out a piece of red paper from the inner room, on which Yanyan's 'eight characters' had already been written, and handed it to Mrs. Wang. smiled: Then you can take it to them to make a divination and see if the two of them have this fate.
......
Yanyan leaned on the bed angrily, and when she saw Yingchun coming in, she asked angrily: That old mother hasn't left yet?
Yingchun said: Not yet, the old lady is quite energetic to talk to her.
Yanyan said angrily: Chat, chat, what is there to talk about.
Yingchun said aggrievedly: Where do I know. I only heard the old mother say that the eldest son of the Liu family is so good; I heard the old lady say that your family and the Liu family are world friends, and you know the root and something.
When Yanyan heard this, her face immediately turned red, and she blurted out: It's the Liu family—
Yingchun smiled curiously and asked: Could it be that the one I met on the bridge that day was Liu Gongzi?
Yeon-yeon immediately pulled the quilt over her face. Dao: I won't tell you, I won't tell you.
......
Mrs. Wang took the big red 'eight characters' and came to Liu's house with a smile.
She said to Hong Ying: Oh, Mrs. Liu, this time I finally didn't run in vain, 'Nian Geng's eight characters' was given by his family, you go and ask someone to divinate a hexagram to see if the two of them have this fate.
Hong Ying said, thank you Granny Wang. Hong Ying gave Granny Wang a reward.
Mrs. Wang thanked her.
......
Liu Anlan came home from school for dinner. After eating, Hong Ying said to An Lan: Lan'er, come here, Mom will tell you something.
Liu Anlan followed Hong Ying into the room.
Hong Ying took An Lan's hand and said: Lan'er, your father and I discussed, you are not young, you should consider kissing you.
Liu Anlan was anxious, and said with a red face: Because my son is still young and still studying, I will soon take the children's test. When the child is successful, it will not be too late.
Hong Ying said with a smile: Hey, a man should start a family first and then start a business, which is right. Miss Qiu Jiayanyan and you have grown up together since childhood, and they are a good match, not to mention that the 'Nian Geng' has already come out.
When I heard that I was going to propose to Qiu Jiayanyan, I was in the middle of Anlan's meaning. An Lan blushed and said: Marriage is a major event, and it has always been the order of parents, and Daddy and Mom have decided it.
Hong Ying said with a smile: I will only look at the 'eight characters' of the two of you, and if the 'eight characters' match, I will be hired one day.
As soon as he heard that he was going to call the fortune teller to join the 'eight characters', Liu Anlan was a little anxious, afraid that the fortune teller would talk nonsense and make a good thing, so he said: Does my mother also believe in the fortune teller, so why doesn't the fortune teller calculate a good fortune for himself?
Hong Ying smiled: Let's see if your fates are in conflict.
An Lan Dao: From the perspective of numerology, Wei'er is the year of Ding Si, and Yanyan is the year of Wuwu, and the two lives have no conflict.
Hong Ying said with a smile: It seems that Lan'er has already made up her mind.
Liu Anlan said: I'm going to school. And went out.
......
After Mrs. Wang left, Mrs. Xu felt a little uneasy in her heart, although marrying her daughter to the Liu family is the common wish of her and the family, not to mention that the marriage of children has always been the order of parents, but there are not a few people who resist marriage, in case the daughter is unwilling, how to end? So, she called Yingchun. She said to Yingchun: Xiaochun, you and Miss get along with each other, like brothers, you might as well probe in front of Miss, now, for Miss set a family business, the husband's family is the famous Liu family in Nanxun Town, his son is dignified, smart and capable, is a scholar.
When Yingchun heard it, he snorted.
Yingchun Dao: In the opinion of the servant girl, you are called a dog catching a mouse - blindly busy.
made Mrs. Qiu baffled. Dao: What do you mean by that?
Yingchun said: Madam, the maid really doesn't hide it, my young lady and Liu Gongzi have already exchanged letters.
Mrs. Qiu said in surprise: Is this true?
Yingchun Dao: How dare a little woman talk nonsense. Isn't nonsense ruining my young lady's reputation? After saying that, he went out the door.
Mrs. Qiu stood in place and said: This dead girl.
......
Although An Lan had long had a heart for Miss Qiu's family, Hong Ying was still a little uneasy, so she still hired a fortune teller.
The fortune teller said: The two lives are also matched, and there will be great wealth and wealth in the future, but the male fate will be on fire, and there will be many disasters and difficulties in the future.
Hearing that An Lan and Yanyan were married, Hong Ying discussed with Liu Yong, replied to the Qiu family, and hired him on a later date.
Although the Liu and Qiu families are world friends, in order not to lose their dignity, the Liu family also specially prepared carefully.
Liu Yong personally rushed to Zhuji and bought three buckets and three liters of fine pearls.
Hong Ying specially went to Suzhou to order a pair of fine jade bracelets, as well as gold necklaces, a gold unicorn, etc.
The Liu family chose the auspicious day of August 18 as the date of marriage.
On this day, the Liu family put up the lights, up and down busy, although it is not a big wedding, but the marriage is also an important part of the marriage. On this day, uncles, aunts, and some of my closest relatives came.
In the morning, Song Hongsheng, on behalf of the man's highest elders, under the leadership of Mrs. Wang, carried several boxes of dowry gifts and took An Lan to Qiu's mansion for employment.
The Qiu Mansion is also lit up and lively. Seeing the arrival of the proposing team, Qiu Xiancha ordered someone to fire a cannon to greet him.
The proposing team entered Qiu's house, put the dowry on the table, and the surrounding villagers came to watch. A bucket of pearls sparkles in the sun.
Some said: I haven't seen real pearl beads yet.
Some said: How much do so many pearl beads cost?
Qiu Xiancha also sighed with emotion: My righteous brother and in-laws, why do you do this. It's not that other people don't know. As long as the little couple is in love in the future, it is better than anything else.
At this time, Liu Anlan came to Qiu Xiancha, knelt down and said: My father-in-law is on top, and I am bowed by my son-in-law.
Qiu Xiancha laughed and said, "Get up, get up." Then he took out a big red envelope.
Liu Anlan came to Qiu Xiancha's wife Xu again, knelt down and said: My mother-in-law is on top, and I am bowed by my son-in-law.
Mrs. Qiu smiled from ear to ear and said, "Hurry up, hurry up." Then he also took out a big red envelope.
During the banquet, Liu Anlan came to Yanyan's elders and bowed them one by one. The elders took out red envelopes and gave them to Liu Anlan. The harvest is not small.
On this day, it made Yeon-yeon very embarrassed, and she kept hiding in the room, and she didn't dare to come out until the banquet began. The maid Yingchun entered the door and said: Hey, miss, why are you still staying in the room, it's time to open the banquet.
Yanyan blushed and said embarrassedly: So many people, how embarrassed.
Yingchun smiled and said: You, you are a gluttonous cat, you want to eat fish, but you are afraid of fish. Take a walk.
Yingchun pulled Yanyan in front of Liu Anlan and said: Say blessings to my brother.
In the case of everyone's coaxing, Yanyan had no choice but to give Liu Anlan a blessing. At this time, Liu Anlan knelt on one leg, pulled Yanyan's left hand, and put a treasure ring on her ring finger.
At this time, the audience applauded and laughed.
Yanyan was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look directly at Liu Anlan.
Everyone knows that if a girl wears a ring on her ring finger, it means that there is already a master. No other man would dare to pursue it after that.
