On September 18, the dowry prepared by the Chu family for Chu Xiuxiu was carried to the Deng family one by one, with more than a dozen large wooden boxes and a whole set of brand new furniture, and twenty or thirty people were hired for the dowry alone.

From the Chu family to the Deng family is very close, but this spectacular dowry procession still caused a lot of sensation on Changqing Street.

When the neighbors saw this scene, they were a little surprised: "I know that the Chu family is doing a good job and the family is living a good life, but I didn't expect the family to be so thick.

There are also some families who have sons in the family, and they can't help but sour the Deng family, "This Deng family is really a good life, and if you marry such a daughter-in-law for your son, you will be blessed in the future."

"I can't say that, there are many people on this street who have moved to discuss marriage with the Chu family, but you don't see that the Chu family has blocked back, listening to the Tan matchmaker, the Deng family didn't succeed at the beginning, but it can't stand the sincerity of the youngest son of the Deng family, saying that it has made a lot of efforts, which moved the Chu family and approved the marriage."

The aunt who spoke a little sour just now also made peace with Chu Xiuxiu for her son, but now that she heard this, she was even more angry in her heart: "The Yue family like the Chu family, who can't work hard, I knew that the Chu family ate this set, and this family affair really didn't necessarily fall on the head of the Deng family."

The eldest lady next to her didn't agree with it, they were all neighbors, and it was not good for this to reach the ears of the Deng family, so she persuaded her: "If you want me to say, this is all fate, and the life of the Deng family is quite prosperous, not necessarily the Tuchu family, but the two children are suitable."

After listening to his wife read the dowry list in private, Deng's mother was a little worried: "His father, you said that compared with the dowry of the Chu family, did we give less than the dowry at the beginning?"

Father Deng took the gift slip and muttered for a while: "Didn't Boss Chu tell us just now, there is such a daughter in the family, life was hard when she was a child, and now the conditions are good, and the family will not pay attention to this dowry, so let's not mind, don't think too much."

"That's the way it is, but they directly sent a shop...... Shall we add more?"

Father Deng shook his head and said, "You old woman is confused, this dowry is over, how can you give it back?" Besides, you added to the third child, what about the first two?

Since the Chu family has done this, it means that people don't care, they just hope that their daughter will live well after marriage, and ask the third child to treat others well in the future, that girl didn't lose her mother early, you should also care more about her."

When Mother Deng thought about it, the dowry gifts for her three sons to marry wives were all the same, and it was unfair to the first two to the first two alone, so she could only do so.

In the stove room in the backyard of the Deng family, the two daughters-in-law are also talking about this, the second daughter-in-law Chen is a thoughtful person, since she saw the battle of giving the dowry, she felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that the Chu family has not yet entered the door, and she wants to press the two sisters-in-law?

But it's not good to say this, so I thought about it and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this Chu family, this dowry is more than the dowry given by the family."

The eldest daughter-in-law, He Shi, has always been very transparent, and she knew that Chen was uncomfortable in her heart, so she smiled and persuaded: "What other meaning can there be, but the elders in the family feel sorry for their daughters, not all fathers and mothers are like this, they all want to do their best to give the best to their children, younger brothers and sisters don't think about it too much."

Sister-in-law He said this, Chen naturally didn't want to say anything, but it was still a little uncomfortable, He's family conditions were also good, and the dowry must have been a lot at the beginning, so I couldn't understand my feelings.

On September 19, Chu Ping's family and Shen Songjie came to the county seat in advance, and everyone was chatting in the east courtyard.

Seeing that people were panting, the little couple hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter, why did you come back at this hour?"

Chu Li gasped and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, Master...... Master......"

Chu Yi stretched out his hand to help Chu Li smooth out: "Don't worry, take your time

Say, what's wrong with Mr. Liang?"

Chu Li settled down, drank another cup of herbal tea handed over by Shen Luzhu, and continued, "Master received a letter from the capital, saying that there was an urgent matter at home, and asked Master to rush back to the capital immediately."

"Ali knows what's going on, is there anything we can do to help?"

Chu Li shook his head and said, "Master didn't elaborate, only said that he had to leave as soon as possible, and said that he would not be able to come back for half a year or a year, so he asked me to come back and discuss with my brother and sister-in-law whether I could allow me to go to the capital with him, and said that he would come to the house later."

The little couple glanced at each other, and were a little caught off guard by this sudden news, but in the end, they had to listen to Chu Li's own thoughts.

So Shen Luzhu asked softly, "What does Ah Li think, your brother and I listen to you."

Chu Li is so big, except for the time when the young couple were implicated in the fake silver ticket case and imprisoned, they have never been separated from Chu Yi for too long, but he followed the master to learn painting, and he has only gradually started recently.

"I ......"

Seeing that Chu Li didn't directly say that he didn't want to talk to Liang Huairen, Chu Yi knew that he wanted to go, but he was a little entangled at the moment, patted his younger brother's shoulder and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Chu Li was silent, he had nothing to worry about, he just didn't want to be separated from his brother and sister-in-law, but he really liked to learn painting with Liang Huairen, and he also wanted to go out to see what the capital was like.

"The capital is too far away, I don't know when I'll be able to come back."

Chu Yi smiled and said, "Our family has always been here, and we won't move away quietly behind your back, we will be there when you come back."

Half an hour later, Liang Huairen really came to visit as Chu Li said, and the conversation was naturally about bringing Chu Li into Beijing.

"My mother is seriously ill, I need to rush home as soon as possible, but Chu Li's current homework can't be delayed, if you can trust him, I want to take him into Beijing, people who study painting can't always live in a corner, this will limit his horizons, look at this great rivers and mountains, it will be beneficial to him and harmless."

The young couple agreed with Liang Huairen's point of view, but in the end, this matter still has to listen to Chu Li's own thoughts: "Mr. Liang is right, as long as Ah Li agrees, our husband and wife have no opinion on him entering Beijing."

Liang Huairen looked at Chu Li when he heard this: "Disciple, do you want to go to Beijing to take a look?"

Chu Li hesitated for a moment but nodded, and then said to the little couple, "Brother and sister-in-law, I want to go out and have a look."

The little couple was not surprised, and nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Liang, we know that you are eager to return home, but you still have a reluctant invitation, I wonder if you can ask Ah Li to attend his cousin's wedding banquet tomorrow before leaving?"

Liang Huairen knew that the Chu family had been busy with Chu Xiuxiu's marriage recently, so he nodded and said, "It just so happens that I still have some things to prepare, and I originally planned to set off again the day after tomorrow."

"Thank you, Mr. Liang, Ah Li will trouble you."

The festive energy of the Chu family, because of this sudden change, was mixed with a little panic and sorrow, and Shen Luzhu was busy packing Chu Li's bags, food and clothing all afternoon, and he couldn't wait to move his home to Chu Li.

"Seeing that it is going to be October, although the capital is in the south, but I am afraid that it will be very cold on the way, my sister-in-law just went to the street shop to add a few new winter clothes to you, and a sheepskin jacket, all of which were brought to you, and when you feel cold, you can put them on, and the outside is not as good as at home, take care of yourself."

Chu Li obediently stayed aside and helped Shen Luzhu clean up together: "I know sister-in-law, don't worry."

"Your brother went to the market to buy a lot of food and came back, and then my sister-in-law will make you some dried meat and the like, fortunately, the weather is not hot now, and you are not afraid of bringing more."

Shen Luzhu said and took out a purse and handed it to Chu Li: "This purse contains some copper coins and broken silver, you put it in a good place, I also sewed a hidden pocket in my underwear, and put a few silver tickets in it, when necessary, I will open it and use it, no need to save it, and ah......

The night before the wedding, Chu Xiuxiu slept with her cousin-in-law, the sister-in-law

whispered for half a night, but fortunately, the Chu and Deng families were close, so they didn't have to get up too early to dress up on the day of marriage.

Changed into a hand-sewn red wedding dress, Shen Luzhu invited a well-known Quanfu woman on the street to comb Chu Xiuxiu's hair and dress up, and when it was cleaned up, there was also a noise of the kissing team outside the door.

Qian glanced at Shi Chen, and said with a smile: "This groom official is really fast, I can't wait to marry our Xiuxiu into the family, I arrived so early, and I will have to be troubled by these boys in the family."

The women in the house were talking and laughing so lively, but Shen Luzhu saw Chu Xiuxiu holding her hands nervously, patted her twice and comforted, "Don't be nervous."

Deng Nanxun was really blocked by the sons and daughters of the Chu family for a while before being put into the yard.

After bidding farewell to the Chu family, Chu Yi carried Chu Xiuxiu on her back and sent her out of the gate of the Chu family step by step, and sent her into the sedan chair where the Deng family came to pick up her relatives.

"Cousin......

"There are cousins and sisters-in-law in everything, Xiuxiu, don't be afraid."

"Hmm!"

Seeing that Chu Yi withdrew from the sedan chair, Mrs. Tan stepped forward happily to tidy up the sedan curtain, and then retreated to the side of the sedan chair and said loudly: "Get up the sedan chair!"

The Chu family stood in front of the courtyard gate and watched Chu Xiuxiu's wedding sedan chair leave, until they could no longer see the shadow and hear the joy, so they returned to the lively inner courtyard with some amazement and thanked the relatives and friends who came to give Xiuxiu a wedding.
