On the Lantern Festival and Yuan Xiaofan and his daughter thought about it all night, but finally decided to move. The father and daughter didn't even have time to eat dinner, so they were busy packing their things and moved overnight.
The next morning
Before Dongfang Ling got up, someone was caught out of the quilt, saying that the old man was going to take him to the Yuan Xiaofan family to give a betrothal gift today. Even if it was time to hurry up, the Dongfang family would not blame the Yuan family. Therefore, the old man ordered people to prepare eight cart betrothal gifts early in the morning.
Even if Dongfang Ling was reluctant, he would not dare to go against his old man's words, so he had to get up early and go to Fengxian Village with the old man.
Along the way, whether on the bustling streets of Fengzhou City or to the villages in the suburbs of the west of the city, the people were talking about their lineup.
Passerby A: "Huh? Look, look, aren't this the Old General of the Orient and Young Master Ling? Where are you going to drag these eight large wooden boxes?"
Passerby B: "Didn't you see red silk hanging on every wooden box? Where should I go to get the betrothal gift? Only weddings and weddings will I hang this kind of red silk hanging on it."
Passerby A: "Haha, Mr. Ling wouldn't have hired that village girl?" Dongfang Ling and Yuan Xiaofan were involved in the matter. It was rumored that the old general Dongfang asked his grandson to marry Yuan Xiaofan, but unexpectedly, he would give a betrothal gift now.
Passerby B: "Shh, whisper, the Yuan Xiaofan in Fengxian Village will be the young lady of the General's Mansion from now on. You are calling her like this. Be careful that the people in the Dongfang Mansion will be punished for you as a great sin of disrespect."
Passerby A was so scared that he immediately covered his mouth and looked at Dongfang Ling and his group slowly walking away, as if they didn't notice him. They were lucky enough to take it. After all, it was not a society of free speech. At this time, people at this time may be killed by accidentally saying a wrong sentence anytime and anywhere.
In fact, Dongfang Che, Dongfang Ling and a group of followers all heard clearly. Dongfang Ling's hot temper clenched his fists and wanted to beat someone. If his grandfather hadn't glared at him and gave him a warning, he would have jumped off the horse and beat those guys who were chewing their tongues behind him.
"You are still so impatient. How can you be a vanguard officer like this?" Dongfang Che glared at him fiercely.
"Yes, grandpa." Dongfang Ling was always a good grandson in front of Dongfang Che, and lowered his head and swallowed the anger alive.
Dongfang Che looked at him sideways, and he loved and worried at his grandson. His hot temper was exactly the same as he used to back then. For his hot temper, he took many detours to achieve today's achievements. He was afraid that his grandson would really follow his own temperament, and his success would be as bumpy as he used to back then.
Their grandfather and grandson fell to the General's Mansion's guards and sixteen people. Dongfang Ling and Dongfang Che were both riding tall horses, while the rest were driving carriages. The carriages were packed with boxes of betrothal gifts, and slowly walked along the streets of Fengzhou City to Fengxian Village.
As soon as they entered the village entrance, many village names gathered around and began to discuss, and then followed their brigade to Yuan Xiaofan's house to watch the fun.
Seeing that the villagers were so enthusiastic, Dongfang Che kept bowing to the villagers who followed their team and thanked them: "Thank you all the villagers... Thank you... Thank you..."
