Chapter 379: Liu Muyun begs to marry Yuan Sijin
Liu Muyun as the emperor's hand-picked eye, the next day was summoned by the emperor into the palace, ready to send him to the place to experience, originally he still had a three-month vacation, can return to his hometown, the emperor also specially rewarded him from his hometown directly to take office, Liu Muyun immediately knelt down and kowtowed, grateful for the emperor's grace.
came out of the imperial study and met Yuan Pei, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "My lord, the emperor ordered me to go to Pingyang, to serve as the commander of Pingyang County, and after returning to my hometown to visit relatives, I can go directly from home to take office." β
Yesterday, the two talked for a long time, at that time Liu Muyun felt that he was poor and white, and he really didn't dare to ask a woman to entrust him, not to mention that he was still pampered since he was a child, he had seen Yuan Sijin a few times in Cheng's house, although he hadn't spoken, but he also knew that that such a girl was not something he could think of, but when fortune fell on his head, it made him feel very unreal.
Today, I have an official position, although the official position is not high, but in the end it is different, and the emperor has a reward to come down, so I have the courage to enter the door of the Yuan family.
"I wonder if you can be at the house this afternoon?"
Yuan Pei's eyes flashed with satisfaction, "Tomorrow, tomorrow morning, call your second uncle of the Cheng family together, and have dinner together at noon." β
Liu Muyun bowed his hand and turned to leave, while Yuan Pei entered the imperial study, wanting to make this matter clear in front of the emperor.
The emperor didn't like it when he heard it, he felt that the Yuan family wanted to rob him of people, and he heard that it was Cheng Daqianbao's matchmaker's face that improved, Yuan Pei continued: "The emperor also knows that the girl of Weichen has been spoiled by me and her mother since she was a child, and she is a little naΓ―ve and ignorant. β
"A few days ago, I always ran to Cheng's house, went to talk to Xiaosi, I saw Liu Muyun, although I couldn't say that I was happy but I didn't hate it, yesterday I had dinner at Cheng's house, and the uncle mentioned it when I laughed, and Weichen felt that Liu Muyun was good everywhere, young and promising, with a simple family background, and a decent person, not the one who only thought about drilling the camp and clinging, if that girl followed him, she would be less wronged in the future."
Speaking of it, it was all a fatherly heart, and the emperor thought about it carefully and smiled, "Yuan Qing's vision is as good as ever, and this Liu Muyun and I also appreciate it, so I have to send me a glass of happy wine when the time comes." β
This is the answer, Yuan Pei hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Second aunt, this is the list of dowries for all the warehousing, you can take a look, in addition, I heard that the Tu family seems to be a little stretched, do you need us to send a pig and a sheep over?"
There was still half a month left in the day when Cheng Youqian married his wife, and the Cheng family was busy again, and Cheng Xiaosi began to play as the main player.
The Qin family looked at the dowry list, and temporarily decided to reduce the dowry by forty percent, and the forty percent of the reduced gifts were all valuable objects, "We didn't think about it before, thinking that even if the Tu family was defeated, there was some foundation, but recently it seems that this foundation is very thin, and Mrs. Tu has been stealing the objects in the pawn house to add a dowry to Miss Tu." β
"Our dowry is too generous, and it will become a burden for the Tu family after sending it over."
Here, people who want face want to bring back the dowry as a dowry, in Cheng Xiaosi's words, marrying a girl is really a loss, if there are many girls in the family, and the family resources are not rich enough, just marrying a girl can empty the family, and there are even people who sell their property to prepare for the dowry.
Qin sighed, "Then the pig and the sheep will find a reason to send them over when the time comes." β
Cheng Xiaosi said with a smile: "Let's just say that it is the rule of our hometown, to add food to the woman's wedding banquet, it is acceptable to come to the Tu family, the first day of the Tu family's banquet is sent over early in the morning, and there are not many people who know about it." β
The Qin family responded, and Cheng Xiaosi was busy sending people to arrange this matter, only sighing that this day was too fast.
In the evening, Cheng Daqian came over and said that he wanted to add a few decent salutes to Liu Muyun from the treasury, "That kid will wait for the Yuan family to ask for marriage tomorrow, and he only has a little reward from the emperor in his hand, and he used all the emperor's rewards as a dowry, but it is still not enough, and Ming'er can't come empty-handed for the first time." β
This is really raising Liu Muyun as a son, the Qin family is helpless, but he still personally prepared for Liu Muyun to go to the Yuan family tomorrow, at this moment Yuan Sijin is happy and worried, afraid that it will be empty joy, only Mrs. Yuan is full of sorrow, "If you really choose him, you will have to follow him to take office, and your sister-in-law will be like you, tossing and turning, and you will suffer." β
Yuan Sijin, who is full of longing for the future, said that she is not afraid of hard work at all, because she believes in Liu Muyun, believes in everyone's evaluation of Liu Muyun, and feels that the future will definitely get better little by little, "Xiaosi said that Liu Muyun can be on the high school list at such a young age, and he is already a leader among his peers, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, the future will definitely be a bright future." β
"I think Xiao Si is right, looking at the children of so many families in the capital, there are few children as powerful as Liu Muyun, he still came out without any family help, if he helps her again, it must be even more extraordinary, don't look at the county order now, it will be able to come up in a few years, maybe the grade will be higher than his father at that time."
Speaking of the future, Mrs. Yuan smiled helplessly, I really don't know how much effort I have to put into helping if I really want to get to that point, I hope that kid is a good one.
The next time the big money led Liu Muyun to the door, this time Liu Muyun did not let the Yuan family take the initiative to speak, he was a man, he should have begged for it, his attitude was very respectful, and he was very satisfied with the courtesy of the juniors to the elders, and he didn't take Qiao, so he immediately settled the matter and released the rumors.
Originally, he would enter the palace this afternoon to ask his father to give him a decree to marry, but he didn't expect that a newly admitted list could be the first, the Yuan family was really confused and had no margins, and after being suppressed by the emperor over the years, he didn't think about finding a backer, but he was willing to fall and gamble on the future on a poor and white person.
"It's crazy."
The queen and the crown prince spared no effort to suppress their mother and son, they were defeated and retreated, and there was really no way to retreat, that is, at this time, the uncle of the fifth prince came to the door and said that he wanted to help him.
"That's it?"
Knowing that the matter between Yuan Sijin and Liu Muyun was finalized, Cheng Xiaosi felt that it was too fast, and Qin said with a smile: "The elders of the Liu family are not here, and he has to rush back to report the good news, and he has to make time to take office, so naturally everything is simple." β
"Fortunately, your future mother-in-law has prepared all the preparations, and you don't have to take all the dowries away, just pick some that you can use and bring with you, and then set up a banquet and invite each family to see the ceremony, and this matter will be finished."
"Liu Muyun's situation is special, and everyone won't say anything, but they have to envy the Yuan family's fast movements, you must know that Liu Muyun is hot." (End of chapter)
