Seeing the joy on the matchmaker's face, Shitou smiled at her, and then looked at Guo'er Niang with a puzzled look. He saw that Guo'er Niang also looked confused. She was silent for a long time, and then said: "You guys are
Who and why did you come to my house?"
Shitou is a man who is used to being honest, and he cannot say such convoluted words. Just as the matchmaker was about to speak, the young young man who was sitting upright stood up, bowed to Shitou, and then said: "
We are here to propose marriage to Miss Chengchun on the orders of my wife!"
As soon as it was mentioned that it was a marriage proposal, the neighbors who were watching the excitement started talking about it.
The young man didn't care. He just looked at the stone and said, "The head of the family is Uncle Changwu today. I have been ordered by the mistress of the house to come here to propose marriage. I am talking about the fifth master of the Marquis!"
Shitou was stunned. Although he had never traveled far in his life, he still knew Uncle Changwu. You must know that Uncle Changwu guarded the border, guarded the peace of the border, and protected the border without war for decades. Then
To the people of the world, he can be regarded as a god-like figure!
All the neighbors who could hear the sound were shocked when they heard about Uncle Chang Wu.
"My Ah Chun is just a country girl, how can she get along with such a noble person!" Shitou was wary, "I'm afraid you are looking for the wrong person!"
"Your girl is destined to be with that fifth master. He will not let his people listen to gossip outside and suffer in vain!" The matchmaker brought Shitou and Guo'er Niang to the place.
The man in the corner spoke, "Although your girl was not a serious wife when she was married, your family is also an honest and responsible farmer. Your girl was also married by a matchmaker. Although she is only a concubine, she is also a good concubine!"
The matchmaker still refused to let go when she saw the stone, so she sighed and said softly: "You also really feel sorry for this girl and are reluctant to let her grow up. But if you don't marry, in this village, you will force this girl to death."
?I heard that this child has already hanged himself once!"
This matchmaker is also very powerful. Before Shitou and Guoerniang said a word, the matchmaker said everything that was in their hearts. Moreover, the matchmaker also made it clear that Ah Chun was already a member of the family.
At this point, they can't just watch Achun being driven to death by rumors!
Finally, Shitou spoke: "Ah Chun... will the fifth master treat her well?"
The matchmaker's eyes turned red when she saw Shitou, such an upright farmer, and she was shocked. If any parents encountered such a thing that could lead to wealth, wouldn't they all rush to send their daughters away, but why?
This married woman, I really care about this girl!
"It is said that a matchmaker has a mouth, but I am the most respectable official matchmaker in this town. I don't dare to trick you. I just say that Mr. Sanwu will treat your girl in every possible way. Is it a good idea to marry her?
Whether it's bad or not depends on his own destiny, but she is a good concubine and he will never treat her badly!" The matchmaker said word by word while looking at the stone.
Shitou remained silent, and finally Guo'er's mother spoke up: "My girl is pampered and I have never forced her to do anything. It's up to her. If she doesn't want to marry, my Guo'er will naturally be willing to raise her."
Her whole life."
The matchmaker watched Guo'er Niang enter the house, and felt more and more that this married woman's beloved daughter was so doted on that she was so doted on that the mother would actually ask the girl for her opinion in front of so many people.
After a long time, Guo'er's mother walked out of the house. She walked to Shitou, looked at Shitou and nodded, saying, "Ah Chun nodded!"
Shitou let out a long breath, and then said: "I accept this marriage!"
Seeing that the stone had been laid down, the matchmaker smiled and waved her hand, and the officials crowded in the courtyard took off the burdens wrapped in red silk. This was regarded as the betrothal gift.
Bao Gu, who always loved to watch the excitement, finally squeezed through the crowd and squeezed in beside Guo'er Niang: "Your Ah Chun is about to fly up a branch and become a phoenix!"
Bao Gu was a well-known talkative woman in Chengjiazhuang. Guo'er Niang didn't like to interact with them too much. She just smiled and said nothing. The matchmaker explained the matter clearly and left with the officials.
Neighbors all rushed in at once.
The neighbors helped open the betrothal gifts, and they couldn't help but smack their lips. These are all fine satins. They are much better than the clothes worn by the officials just now, and they even have a pair of high-quality satins.
The nice gold headdress should have been worn by Ah Chun when he got married.
For villagers like them, when they get married, they can only wear a piece of silver jewelry, which is considered decent. However, Gan Wuhou actually prepared a whole set of jewelry for those elderly women.
I couldn't help but touch it here and there, wishing I could put it on my head.
Aunt Bao looked hot, so she walked aside and opened an inconspicuous box seemingly casually. However, she didn't expect that the box was full of silver ingots. Aunt Bao was so frightened that she attracted
All eyes.
Shitou and Guo'er Niang walked to the betrothal gifts and looked at these good things, but their expressions were not very good.
"Shitou, you really raised a good daughter. Look at these things, it will be enough for your Guo'er to get a wife in the future!" Aunt Bao looked familiar, and her words became more and more sour.
, "This girl is really getting a good deal!"
The thing Shitou's family didn't like to hear the most was someone talking about Achun's life experience. Everyone thought Shitou would lose his temper, but they didn't expect Shitou to actually say: "We should let Achun bring all these things back!"
Shitou's words were meant for Guo'er's mother. Everyone thought Shitou was a demonic barrier, but Guo'er's mother always had plans for Guo'er, but unexpectedly, Guo'er's mother just nodded:
"We should also prepare something else!"
When others heard this, they felt that Shitou and his wife were really crazy. They were actually planning to let this girl Achun take away all these good things. They are not really close relatives, so why should they be like this?
But in the final analysis, this is also the attitude of others. After seeing the excitement, everyone naturally dispersed, and Bao Gu also followed the others, but all she could see was the box of shining silver ingots.
Later, the matchmaker came several times to set a date, and the family started to get really busy. After all, they were all farmers and fellow villagers. Whenever there was a happy event for any family, they all went to help.
Shitou went to the town to inquire about it, and found out that the babies were brought in quietly. He didn't want his daughter to be wronged, so he thought that the banquet at his parents' house should be held in a more dignified manner.
