She spent the next two days preparing for the engagement.
Although Yan Zhenting is bent on profit, he really values Yan Han. The betrothal gift includes an island, which can be used to hold an engagement party.
Because it is not a marriage, the process is not that complicated, just follow the customs of the imperial capital.
In addition to the various gifts in the early stage, on the day, the man's relatives and friends will come to the woman's house to drink a cup of sweet tea, and then pick her up to go to the banquet. It sounds very simple.
However, Song Xiang was busy for a whole week, and he went to see Xu Shuyan in the middle. Xu Shuyan woke up occasionally, but when he saw her, she just smiled and rarely spoke.
The night before, except for the pregnant Gu Lian, Wang Fuxue, Su Man and others all stayed at the Rong family. The house was very lively inside and outside. Even Rong Boye changed his clothes and sat downstairs to watch Rong Zhe.
Take inventory of necessary supplies.
Song Xiang ran up and down the stairs, feeling much stronger about getting married.
I was urged to go back to my room to rest, but I couldn't fall asleep.
I got up in the early morning, thinking about making sweet tea for Yan Han's relatives and friends to drink. I sat on the bed and thought about the process, and found that I seemed to have forgotten it.
She patted her forehead, lifted the quilt and went downstairs.
The lights were still on downstairs, but there was no one there.
Song Xiang went to the kitchen and started making tea according to the procedure.
"Starting preparations so soon?"
Suddenly, a voice appeared from behind.
Song Xiang was startled and turned around, not expecting it to be Chu Xun.
"Why don't you sleep?"
"I feel a little strange about sending my sister off to get married." Chu Xun said.
Song Xiang was a little embarrassed and leaned on the cooking table, "There is nothing to do today. He just brought a few friends over for a cup of tea."
Chu Xun: "So you started cooking in the early morning?"
Song Xiang was speechless and laughed twice, "Just practice."
The corners of Chu Xun's lips raised and he sat down opposite her, "Then please give me a drink and I'll try it for you."
It was rare to see him so interested, and Song Xiang couldn't help but want to say a few more words.
The tea behind her began to bubble. She turned around, filtered the tea, fanned the scent of the tea under her nose with her hand, and then looked for the special sugar balls.
"alright."
Chu Xun took the tea, opened the lid of the tea bowl, and took a sip, "It's very fragrant."
Song Xiang put his hands behind his back and stepped on his feet like a child, feeling happy that the two days of study break were not in vain.
When there were firecrackers outside, no need to think, it must be Uncle Yu starting to follow the same old rules again.
Song Xiang rubbed his hands, walked out of the kitchen, and stood on the porch looking at the night sky.
Chu Xun came out with a tea cup and said, "Go in and rest, we'll see you in a few hours."
Song Xiang pursed her lips and nodded.
He took a deep breath, stretched his muscles and said good night to Chu Xun.
Turning around and going upstairs, the fireworks outside just took off, illuminating the starlight outside the window, which was beautiful.
…
Because it was just an engagement and no preparations were needed, Song Xiang slept until about seven o'clock before being woken up by Li Ying and the others.
"Hurry up, make tea!"
Song Xiang got up top-heavy and was confused as to where he had put the tea. He washed up quickly and was dragged downstairs, where he could still make tea.
Yan Han hasn't brought anyone here yet. In the hall are Li Ying, Wang Fuxue and Su Man.
Song Xiang held up her eyelids and brewed tea, almost knocking her head into the tea soup.
At eight o'clock, Wang Fuxue urged her to go upstairs to change clothes.
At around nine o'clock, there was movement outside.
Uncle Yu ran in panting, "Coming, coming."
Song Xiang suddenly became nervous and almost lost his grip on the tea bowl.
