436. One Twenty-four of Beichanghang(1/2)

Chapter 436

When Ah Xi got engaged, the twins were very worried about their sister. Ah Yun said, "Brother Ah Zhen's house is very far away from our house. It's time to walk for several days."

Ayan said, "What if it's difficult to walk along the way, what should I do if I can't hurry up?"

Ayun was also worried, "Why can't the eldest sister get married? What should I do?"

what to do!?

On A Xi's happy day, the twins said that she couldn't get married, so they made A Xi angry and rolled up their sleeves and beat the two guys. The two little villains really agreed with the words of the two. They were even seven or eight years old, and their sister chased and beat them. The two were not afraid at all, and they ran away with laughter.

The Ji family had no plan for such a big deal as engagement. The Ji family had borrowed a house in Beichang Prefecture. Mrs. Jiang, Ji Zhen, Jiang, and Yao Jie, and the dowry team arrived three days in advance.

Although Ji Zhen could not meet A Xi, he sent someone to send A Xi something to hold small notes and small notes every day. He Zijin sighed, as if he was in love with the teacher in his previous life. But you are about to get engaged, as for such small notes and other things,?

Ji Zhen put a small note on it. Ah Xi didn't have time to reply during the day, so she had to go to school.

Ji Zhen was not in a hurry, and it was the same the next day. He counted the betrothal gifts when he had time and fed the geese well. Speaking of which, there were no living geese in this cold weather. People hired them in winter, and they often used wooden geese instead. Ji Zhen was different, so he had living geese and fed them fat.

Dabao felt this was strange and asked Ji Zhen about where he made the wild goose. Ji Zhen laughed, "This matter cannot be easily reported."

"Hey, you have been married to us A Xi, and I am your elder brother-in-law. Be careful that I will drink you with an appointment banquet."

"Brother Chongyang is older than you." Ji Zhen didn't hide it from it, "I brought it back from the imperial capital."

When Dabao heard this, he sighed and said, "I don't know if you are confident or have the intention."

Ji Zhen smiled brightly, "It's both confident and thoughtful."

Dabao saw Ji Zhen laughing like a flower, and thought about Ji Zhen and A Xi’s childhood sweethearts. Then he compared his emotional ups and downs. Dabao said, "Welcome to A Xi very well, we are only one sister. You have grown up together since childhood, childhood sweethearts, and it’s so rare."

Ji Zhenmei was like a flower, and pulled Dabao to ask about his sister Axi. Gu Ben is whether Axi is good these days, whether she eats well, and whether she sleeps well... In this way, can Axi not eat well, but she can sleep well? Dabao said, "I think you don't have good food or not?"

Ji Zhen rubbed his hands and smiled, "I haven't seen Sister Ah Xi these days, so I love to think about it."

"A Xi is pretty good, but she hasn't chosen which skirt to wear on the day of her engagement. She is in trouble."

"Sister Xi looks good in any clothes."

Dabao saw Ji Zhen’s happy look, and his heart was both envious and sad, thinking that other people’s marriages were all smooth sailing, and he was so bumpy.

However, because it was a good day for A Xi and Ji Zhen, Dabao would not show any sadness. Seeing that Ji Zhen was doing well here, he even went to say to A Xi. Dabao said in particular, "I don't know where he got the live geese, and I raised it well."

Ah Xi also felt strange.

The engagement was not a big show at first. But A Nian was in the position of the inspector, and the eldest daughter of the eldest son of General Ji was engaged to the eldest son of General Ji, and it was a marriage for the imperial concubine. The Jiang family didn't want to make a big show, and there were many people who wanted to come over and have fun.

Chongyang Dabao is not young anymore. Chongyang is with A Nian. A Nian cannot live without him. A Ye wants to go to school, and the twins not only have to go to school, but they don’t have to go to school. They are useless. Dabao has passed the imperial examination and no longer has to go to school, so he came with Brother Xing to help with trivial matters outside. As for the preparations for the inner house, he doesn’t have to worry about the manpower. The third girl He Qi came here early in the morning and Gong Yuan helped.

Just like this, he had been busy for two or three days. Shen smiled and said, "This is just an engagement. If this is a marriage, it will be even more lively."

He Zijin smiled and said, "It's still early to get married. Don't think about it now, let's talk about it later."

Old Madam He said, "Before A Xi gets married, I will marry A Ye first. Look at how capable we A Yuan can do." He looked at the third girl and said to his own girl, "Your third sister is lucky." The third girl Gong Yuan and his daughter-in-law laughed.

The third girl laughed, "She just helps run errands, and you have to make the decision on the big things, grandma."

Mrs. He said, "This is very good. I have been to Beichang Mansion for a long time, but I haven't seen any daughter-in-law in my peers who are as good as A Yuan."

The third girl hurriedly said, "Oh, grandma, it's enough for us to say this to our own people. I'm so embarrassed to hear it."

Gong Yuan also smiled and said, "It's always their own children. My ancestors look at me, so it's natural that they are all good. But outsiders think that the same is true for them. If I can keep up with you, half of my ancestors, I will be able to cultivate myself in my life."

Gong Yuan was very happy and said, and she was very kind to Mr. He. She often bought some snacks and was filial to her. Her great-grandson was the first wife of her great-grandson. Mr. He also loved Gong Yuan very much. Seeing that Gong Yuan flattered her again, she made Mr. He so happy, saying, "What am I? I endured hard when I was young. Our family was poor at that time, so it was better later. Now you are much better than us back then. It can be seen that if you reach my age, you will definitely be better than me now."

Gong Yuan smiled and said, "Everyone listened to our ancestors."

After saying a few words, Gong Yuan stood up and said, "I'll go and see what happened there."

The third girl said, "I think this auspicious time is coming soon. The Ji family will come soon. You can accompany A Xi for a while. The Ji family will arrive later. Send someone to invite A Xi out and you can accompany her."

Gong Yuan smiled and said, "I think so too." Then she got up.

Gong Yuan came here with her son. Xiaolang was just a mom when he was pestering his mother. He was simply a fucking follower. He would go wherever he went. Even the three grandmothers couldn't coax him. Gong Yuan smiled and said, "Let him go with me. I'd like to see Ah Xi all night."

The third girl smiled and said, "Then let's go together."

Axi's boudoir is also quite lively.

He Zijin specially invited two granddaughters from Su Bing and Governor Li's family to accompany him. The main reason is that the relatives said that Ah Xi is the girl, and there are no cousins. Gong Yuan is the cousin's wife. On weekdays, Gong Yuan also has to help with some engagement. Ah Xi is too lonely here, so He Zijin simply invited a few girls of the right age.

Gong Yuan brought Xiaolang over. When Xiaolang saw Aunt Axi, his eyes shone and said loudly, "Beautiful!"

The girls all laughed, and Gong Yuan glanced at him, "You have a lot of eyesight."

Xiaolang, a child, has been very aesthetic since childhood, and now he is quite skillful in speaking. He ran to Aunt Axi and said, "Aunt, can you not marry Uncle Azhen? Can you marry me?" This made people even more funny.

Ah Xi also laughed and said with a smile, "Then do you have a betrothal gift for me?"

Xiaolang thought about it and gave the bamboo horse he brought with him to Aunt Axi. Axi smiled, "It's done."

Xiao Lang was so happy that he turned left and right around Aunt Axi. For a moment, he wanted to play with Aunt Axi and discussed with Aunt Axi whether he could lend him to play for a while. Aunt Axi borrowed him the bamboo horse, so Xiao Lang started riding the bamboo horse.

The Ji family arrived just before the auspicious time. Mrs. Jiang took the lead and brought her son, daughter, son-in-law, and of course, a matchmaker. The Jiang family also invited an official mediator to come over. There was no need for the official media to be a matchmaker. It was just some process of engagement ceremony. There must be such a matchmaker to arrange a good thing ready-made. In the end, He Zijin found a family man who was used to get married. When A Lie and Yu Xing got engaged, and Gong Yuan got engaged in Chongyang, they were all using this matchmaker.

Matchmaker Cui also did his best. When the Ji family arrived, they took the appointment order first, saw the betrothal gift, exchanged the engagement letter, and asked A Xi to come out. Today, A Xi wore a long dress with red begonia embroidered with a flower, and her face was tender and she didn't need any makeup, so she naturally had picturesque eyebrows and eyes. Mrs. Jiang wore a sparrow-headed gold hairpin for A Xi, and the Jiang family also used four needles and threads made by A Xi.

Of course, Ji Zhen also gave a gift to the Yue family.

Cui Guanmao smiled and said, "I have been a mediator for my whole life. Only now do I know what it means to be a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and the harmony of heaven."

Ah Xi looks very good, and Ji Zhen is also the Yushu that His Majesty praised. However, Ah Xi is a little younger, otherwise she would be very good at standing in the same place and holding a jade tree and flowers. Cui official media was in charge of the engagement ceremony and thought about it, but she had to please Mrs. Jiang well. When Miss Jiang gets married, if Mrs. Jiang is willing to use her, it will be a lifelong decent.

Cui official media kept saying good things, He Zijin and A Nian, plus the He family and Hu Jiang family, were also happy to see Ji Zhen. Ji Zhen also dressed up specially today. His clothes were the same as A Xi, both of them were beautiful, and they both looked good, and they were a pair of beautiful women. Even if A Nian, who was not very pleased with Ji Zhen at first, said justice, he had to admit that Ji Zhen could barely match his daughter.

The engagement ceremony was quite short. Ah Xi showed her face and got her mother-in-law to wear a golden hairpin. After the courtesy was completed, Gong Yuan helped her to go back to her room to rest. Until noon, a maid naturally gave her a table to Ah Xi and her besties to enjoy.

Su Bing said, "I only now know that the young master of the Ji family is your brother Zhen."

Miss Li smiled gently, "I met you in front of our academy once, and you are a very handsome man."

Miss Li Er was straightforward and said, "I heard that even Your Majesty praised Mr. Ji as Yushu. Hey, only his appearance would not defile these two words."

Ah Xi said, "Brother Zhen has been handsome since childhood."

Su Bing and others laughed and said, "Have you ever fallen in love with others since you were a child?"

Ah Xi said, "That's not. Although Brother Zhen is handsome, my brother is not bad either. The twins are also good-looking. Let me tell you that if you want to talk about the most handsome person, I have never seen both Sister Li and Sister Li and Sister Li, but Abing has seen it."

When the two girls from the Li family heard this, they looked at Su Bing. Su Bing said, "No, my second brother is so sour. When I think of the little sour poems he made, I feel the urge to change my teeth. Besides, my second brother is not as good as your brother."

A Xi said seriously, "Of course I am not talking about Brother Su, I am talking about your grandfather A Bing. I heard that your grandfather was called a jade man when he was young, right?"

The first time the two girls of the Li family heard about such an anecdote, they asked Su Bing, "A Bing, what else is this?"

Su Bing was very embarrassed, and she said, "I am a junior, so how do you know these things about elders? How did you know about Axi?"

"Of course I know. I asked my uncle at home. I used to think that my brother and Azhen looked exactly the same. However, one of my uncles told me that he was not as good as Mr. Su when he was young." Ah Xi said gossip, "I also said that when Mr. Su was young, wow, when he went out, many people were competing to give him clothes, shoes and socks. When he rode a horse on Zhuque Street, many girls threw flowers and fruits. Another time, there was a fruit shop owner who screamed excitedly and fainted."

Both girls from the Li family were stunned when they heard this. Su Bing was a little disbelief, "Really?"

"This can be fake. Think about it, what is Mr. Su's current appearance?"

Su Bing said, "Although it is not easy to discuss the appearance of elders, my grandfather is quite elegant even though he is old."

"That's it. I heard that the court also issued a law for Mr. Su."

"What law?" the three girls were waiting to listen.

A Xi said, "That is to say, one year, Mr. Su returned to the imperial capital, and a woman grabbed the coconut sold in the shop and smashed it out. Mr. Su was not prepared and smashed it off the horse. Later, the Imperial Capital Mansion arrested people, and Mr. Su still pleaded for the woman. In this way, the Imperial Capital Mansion did not make things difficult for the woman. However, later the Imperial Capital Mansion also said that he would not smash people with big fruits, as accidents were likely to occur."

The two girls from the Li family burst into laughter when they heard this. Su Bing couldn't help laughing and spat, "You don't arrange my grandfather, you must have nothing to do with this."

"I arranged it, it's the real thing. If you don't believe it, just go back and ask Lord Su, it's still fake." Ah Xi said seriously, "So, with Lord Su like this, who dares to be beautiful?"

Miss Li Er said, "That may not be the case. I heard that Mr. Su was just one of the two gems of the imperial capital back then, and another one was as famous as Mr. Su." The girl also started gossiping.

Ah Xi was curious, "Who else is this?"

Miss Li Er said, "I heard that he was the brother of the present Marquis of Yong'an and the Minister of Personnel, Li Shangshu. He said that when he was young, he was no less beautiful than Mr. Su. Because they were outstanding in appearance and extraordinary in talent, they were called the twin gems of the imperial capital at that time."

A Xi asked, "Second sister, have you ever seen this Shangshu Li?"

"Although we lived in the imperial capital with our grandparents for some time, where can we meet the Minister of Personnel?" said Miss Li Er, "But being as famous as Mr. Su shows that he looked like his young man."

Miss Li Er said, "But, A Bing, is your brother not like your grandfather?"

Su Bing was not happy to listen to this, but she couldn't. Her grandfather was born the best, and her excellent genes were not passed on to future generations at all. However, with such a beautiful grandfather, Su Bing was not bad at all, but was too far from the rumor that the old master Su was the twin gems of the imperial capital. Su Bing said, "My brother was born like my uncle, I was born like my father, and my father like my grandmother. However, my aunt was born very beautiful. My aunt has two cousins ​​at home. I have only seen my eldest cousin. I was not bragging, and my eldest cousin's appearance is no worse than Mr. Ji."

Miss Li Er sighed, "It can be seen that we have such a shallow understanding that we are really frogs in the well."

The four little girls muttered about the beautiful Dongmu man history in A Xi's boudoir until the maid served the meal and Gong Yuan came to accompany them to have dinner. A Xi was extremely quiet, and basically her family came to see her, worried that the girls would be shy and not have a good meal. The most lively and busy thing was the table in front, the men were just drinking and joking, and the women also asked to meet Mr. Ji, the "jade man" who was polite and said.

Mrs. Jiang was naturally at the main table and smiled when she heard this, "There are no outsiders today, so let Azhen come over to see you a gift."

Mrs. Su smiled and said, "It's better to meet than to be famous."

Mrs. Li also said, "Yes, Ah Xi is also what we have grown up, but we have to meet your son."

Ji Zhen came over to greet all the ladies and wives, and everyone praised them, "The name of Yushu is worthy of its reputation."

Chongyang and others joked about Ji Zhen, "I won't just call you Azhen in the future, just call you Yushu."

A Ye smirked, "Anyway, Azhen hasn't taken the word yet, so why not just use Yushu as the word, it's so elegant."
