141. There are such good things
The Dragon Boat Festival was spent in a new house, and before that, Yuan Rui went to several mansions to give gifts, including several county kings' mansions.
Now that the identity is different, it is still necessary to follow the customs of the locals, how can you avoid the sophistication of the world.
Especially in the Wei Guogong Mansion, although Mrs. Xu's body is gradually stabilizing now, he is still not very relieved, so he specially asked the imperial doctor Wu who was diagnosing the pulse in the Guogong Mansion, and the answer he got was okay, and now the pulse is basically peaceful.
Yuan Rui doesn't understand the use of medicine, and he doesn't dare to point too much, for cardiopulmonary diseases, Yuan Rui knows the most is to raise, not to mention tiredness, but also to give a more comfortable environment, delicious and refreshing meals.
Therefore, Yuan Rui specially told her a little idea when the county lord came, and just send Mrs. Xu to Zhuangzi outside the Xu family, where she can see the scenery, eat vegetables, and live a relaxed and leisurely life.
The county lord also agreed with Yuan Rui's statement, but now Mrs. Xu is very concerned about the county lord's marriage and doesn't want to go out at this time.
Since the last time the two hugged each other intimately, the county lord seemed to be used to this, and he could directly talk to Yuan Rui about marriage.
"County Lord, I'm not used to it, you said, the two of us got married, and it was too boring to toss everyone."
"Why, I don't want to, what you said, I, the county lord, will give it for nothing!" The county lord was not happy to hear it.
"No, no, I didn't mean that, I mean, I married you, it's just a matter of two people, and now the whole city is paying attention, this, this, it's not good, if the saint knows......" Yuan Rui regretted that he was bald, so he could only hurry up and make up for it.
"Hmph, my mother is worried, afraid that I will be bullied in the future, so she prepared a lot of dowry for me."
"The conscience of heaven and earth, county lord, I bullied you, if you don't bully me, I'll thank God!"
"It seems that I really blame you for bullying you, I wonder when I bullied you."
"I mean, I just want you to bully, and I won't give anyone else a chance."
Yuan Rui knew that he couldn't win, so he quickly changed his tone, he was stupid, reasoning with women, was he impatient!
"Hmph, whoever wants to bully you, go back to the river that bullies you!"
Yuan Rui didn't dare to answer a word anymore, and the current county lord was not easy to fool.
Yuan Rui was very empty-hearted, especially after knowing that the county lord and his sister had discussed, he was even more in a lawsuit.
Yuan Qing came here a few days ago to visit Mrs. Xu and discuss the marriage by the way.
But the county lord pulled her and secretly said something, which shocked Yuan Qing a lot, and the county lord hoped that before getting married, Xiaohe would marry Yuan Rui first.
After the county lord finished speaking, Yuan Qing realized that the county lord was not a temptation, nor was he hypocritical, but indeed had her thoughts.
Although Xiaohe was born as a maid, he saved Yuan Rui's life, and the most important thing is that Xiaohe is now the righteous daughter of Master Meng.
If the county lord gets married, it will not be good for Xiaohe to enter the door in the short term, and people who don't know the inside story still think that Yuan Rui has an opinion on the county lord.
If it drags on for a year or two, according to the body of Mr. Meng and the two of them, it is very worrying.
is married, as a daughter and son-in-law, no matter what arrangements Yuan Rui makes, he should be divided, and outsiders can't say anything at all.
For this matter, Yuan Qing deliberately discussed with Mrs. Xu, but Mrs. Xu, who knew her daughter's thoughts, was also very generous, and did not raise any objections.
Yuan Qing went to the bachelor's mansion again, discussed it with Mr. Meng and his wife, and specially explained that this was the meaning of the county lord, and Yuan Rui agreed, and Xiaohe didn't say anything, he just wanted to ask the two for permission.
Bachelor Meng looked at his wife, both of them shed tears, it is very rare to be able to think about people who are not related to each other like this, both of them agreed, and began to prepare the dowry.
In the next many days, even Yuan Rui, who has always been lazy, gradually got busy, not for anything else, but to try on clothes, and to learn etiquette, but Yuan Rui was bored.
The main reason is that there are too many etiquettes in today's marriages, what to propose, hir, welcome, every link, every step, and even to each relative, you need to pay attention to the difference in etiquette.
On May 13, a very good auspicious day, Yuan Rui married Xiaohe in the new house.
Because this is a relatively secret marriage and is not suitable for fanfare, Yuan Rui only invited a few elders from Xia Guogong's family to attend as his mother's maiden family.
But in the afternoon, the old lady of the Lu family came accompanied by the second son, he was to attend the marriage of the county lord, Yuan Rui didn't want to alarm him, but the old man didn't want to.
There is another person that Yuan Rui didn't expect, Xu Lian, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, actually came to the Yuan Mansion with a light car, and the husband and wife quietly arrived at Yuan's mansion. He made it very clear that he came with his wife, and as Xiaohe's mother's family, he had nothing to do with Yuan Rui.
That's right, Mrs. Xu Lian's Wang family and Mrs. Meng's wife Lin really have a little relationship, and the sister-in-law is already very close, and the relationship between the two families is usually good.
This time, Xiaohe got married, saying that it was a marriage, because of the physical reasons of the two of them, they did not hold any banquets or anything like that in the Meng family, and directly pulled Xiaohe and the dowry from the Meng family to the Yuan family, and of course they also brought all the Meng and his wife.
In the evening, the two tables in the courtyard were full, and the old man of the Lu family was seated in the middle.
Mr. Meng's father-in-law sat in the host's seat as the most distinguished guest, and Xu Lian, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, said that although he had the highest position, he could only sit in the second seat as a distinguished guest.
On the other hand, Xia Guogong, the old lady's uncle, can only be regarded as a guest, and he is next to Old Man Lu, and his son Hu Qinghua is beside him. According to the following age, the eldest son, the second son, and Hu Honghai of the Lu family, and Yuan Rui accompanied them at the end.
On the other table, because they were all their own people, they didn't see each other, Yuan Qing accompanied Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Wang, and Yuan Rui's aunt from the Guogong Mansion.
Of course, for the sake of convenience, the two tables were slightly distanced, one to the east and the other to the west, and there was an original stone table in the middle.
Everyone chatted for a while, and there was nothing involved in the official face, more just some country chores.
Yuan Rui picked up his wine glass and came to Master Meng's side at this time, "Father-in-law, I toast you with a glass of wine, people say that a son-in-law is half a son, and in the future, you don't treat me as a half son, I am a whole." You were originally my master, master and apprentice are like father and son, my father died early, I didn't have the opportunity to fulfill my filial piety, and you will also be my father in the future. ”
Yuan Rui drank a few glasses of wine, and was a little excited, and he didn't speak clearly for a while. But what he meant, several elders here understood.
"Okay, okay, I'll drink this wine, you're a good boy." Mr. Meng was also very excited.
"Father-in-law, I have already discussed with Xiaohe without your consent, if Xiaohe gives birth to a son in the future, his surname will be Meng."
Yuan Rui said solemnly to Master Meng, "Father-in-law, this is not drunkenness, it is true, that's what we think." ”
Yuan Rui is very clear about the concept of inheritance of the ancients, and if Master Meng wants to say that it is regretful, it is because he has no son to inherit the heir.
Yuan Rui really thought about it, he didn't care about it, and besides, didn't there be a county lord.
"This, this," Bachelor Meng was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to say it.
"Brother, Yuan Rui told me about this, I'm very happy, this child is benevolent and righteous, don't shirk it."
Old Man Lu said at this time, and he really admired Yuan Rui's decision.
"Yes, you're a good kid."
Even Xu Shangshu, who had been sitting on the side and had not spoken, had a new view of Yuan Rui, and being able to think about the Meng family like this has exceeded ordinary people's thinking.
Over there, Yuan Qing also told Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Wang about Yuan Rui's thoughts, and Mrs. Lin burst into tears on the spot.
After half an hour of eating, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and several people walked in, and everyone who was drinking was stupid.
I saw that the saint was the first, the Duke of Wei followed the second, the king of Xiangcheng County was the third, the first assistant was the fourth, and the British Duke was the fifth, and they walked into the small courtyard of the Yuan family in order.
"You kid got married today, how can you be sneaky, are you afraid of people eating the feast!" As soon as the saint entered the door, he started the joke.
Everyone hurriedly stood up and came to salute, and it was not convenient for the female dependents to get close, so they all bowed to the saint a little farther away.
"That's it, that's it, it's not so particular, please go to the backyard ladies and I'll gossip with them here."
Watching the servants finish packing up their things, the saint took the lead and sat down on the stool next to the stone table, and motioned for everyone to sit down, but no one sat down, and they all stood on the side and waited.
"It's just a simple door, don't be so tight."
"Wei Guogong, your body is just right, just sit here, otherwise you will fall asleep, Yu Gong, you are also old, you can't stand for a long time, come on, sit down, sit down, that Uncle Wang, Xia Guogong, British Duke, come on, sit down, sit down, by the way, Old Man Lu, you are the master, the master doesn't sit, how can we guests sit." Bachelor Meng, who is also in good health, sit down and talk, sit down, Xu Shangshu, is also a rare distinguished guest, sit down and talk together, Qinghua, you, General Duwei, also sit down, standing too high, it's not easy to speak. "The saints named one by one, and they didn't ignore it.
"Come here today, just go around, don't talk about business, and don't be too restrained."
Today, the saint was talking to several important ministers, and the king of Xiangcheng County entered the palace to tell him a few ideas for Nanyang sea trade, of course, this was played by Yuan Rui after discussing with a few people.
The saint discussed it with Yu Gong and several important ministers a little, and felt that it was feasible and very beneficial to the court, so he agreed to the next arrangement.
The saint looked at Shang Shang and knew that these were thought up by Yuan Rui, and he had indeed solved the big problem for the court.
I remembered the illness of the Duchess of Wei, and I was also worried about the health of the Duchess of Wei, so I took a few people to visit the Duchess of Wei.
When I arrived at the Wei Mansion, after visiting my wife's condition, I heard about Yuan Rui's marriage, and then I had the idea of joining in the fun.
