The matchmaker was originally unwilling to do such a thing, but she was reluctant to part with the heavy amount of money in her hand. In addition, the crowd around her was noisy and booing, so she hesitated for a moment and said: "That's it! Let's go to Hexi Town again.
.”
The bride was pushed back to the wedding sedan by the matchmaker. She paused for a moment in front of the door of the wedding sedan, and finally without saying a word, she held her wedding handkerchief and got into the sedan.
Both Di Xing and Miss Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and the groom and the bride entered the house together.
The people waiting in the carriage were busy seeing this, and felt that it was almost over.
"Shall we leave now?" Princess Qin asked.
Ye Fuxun tugged at Ji Yannuo's sleeve: "Sir, we need to ask Di Xing where Miss Tan's father and brother went to forge?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dixing was seen hurriedly walking out of the Difu. He quickly walked to the carriage and asked loudly: "Who sent my wife to Hedong Town earlier? I wonder if you would like to come in for a wedding drink, let me
Express your gratitude next time?”
Everyone was about to inquire about the whereabouts of Miss Qin's father and brother's blacksmithing place. When Di Xing said this, they followed the current and entered Di Mansion.
The house in Difu was very shabby and shabby, and there were not many guests attending the wedding. They were basically young men of the same age as Dixing.
Ye Fuxun and Princess Qin went into the back room to talk to Miss Qin.
Although the back room is simple, it is decorated very festively, with big 囍 characters on the windows, a big red quilt on the bed, and many red dates, peanuts and lotus seeds on it.
The most eye-catching thing is that the two bookshelves on the wall are filled with books.
Miss Qin sat on the edge of the bed and covered her head with a red hijab, holding her handkerchief in both hands, as if she was nervous and shy.
Ye Fuxun and Princess Qin smiled and came forward to call Miss Qin. They found a stool and sat down: "It seems that your husband is eager to learn and make progress. The books on this bookshelf are taller than people."
As soon as these words came out, Miss Tan's nervous mood relaxed a lot, and she responded in a low voice: "My husband loves to study. He took the scholar examination earlier and said that he plans to go to Beijing to take the exam next year..."
It turns out that Dixing is already a scholar? Ye Fuxun and Princess Qin looked at each other and congratulated with smiles: "Then you are now a scholar's wife. When your husband takes the Jinshi exam next year, you will become the wife of a Jinshi!"
"I, I'm illiterate..." Miss Tan was both happy and worried, "I'm afraid I'm not worthy of my husband."
"Don't belittle yourself." Ye Fuxun held her hand and patted her, "Now that you are married, you can learn to read with your husband on weekdays, and slowly become influenced by him, and you will definitely learn a lot of knowledge.
.”
Princess Qin nodded: "Your husband treats you sincerely. As long as he likes you, you deserve it. You have to take the initiative and be brave."
Just now outside the gate of Di Mansion, everyone could see Di Xing's attitude toward Miss Tan. He really wanted to marry her.
The deep affection in her eyes was something she had never seen before in the prince's eyes, and it was enviable for no reason.
If the prince could treat her like that, she would rather she and the prince were just an ordinary couple.
Miss Qin was encouraged and nodded firmly: "Thank you sisters for your enlightenment. I will definitely learn to read well and not embarrass my husband."
Ye Fuxun smiled and took off the jade bracelet from his wrist and placed it on Miss Tan's palm: "This is a celebration gift for you. Your husband is serious about making progress, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future."
This time she went out disguised as an ordinary girl. The jade bracelet she wore was very good but not particularly expensive, so it was most suitable as a gift.
Miss Qin happily accepted it and thanked her profusely.
Then someone came to tell Ji Yannuo that he had to go on his way and it was inconvenient to stay longer.
Ye Fuxun and Princess Qin knew that the situation was probably settled, so they left the back room, got on the carriage again and set off.
"Did Xing tell where Miss Tan's father and brother went?"
The Prime Minister of Luo County once said that the ore from the iron ore mine would be sent to Haiyun City after being mined and purified, and Miss Tan also said that Haiyun City had aggressively recruited long-term workers who knew how to blacksmith three years ago, so everyone suspected where his father and brother went.
The place may be where iron ore is privately mined to make ironware.
"Dixing doesn't know the specific place where Miss Tan's father and brother went." Ji Yannuo told Ye Fulun, "To avoid Miss Tan's worries, he made up a place name and told her about it."
"In fact, every time Ms. Tan's father and brother send letters back, apart from reporting that they are safe, they never mention the specific work they do in Haiyun City."
"Dixing has asked for the address many times in his replies, but has received nothing."
Princess Qin was surprised: "Then how are we going to find it when we go to Haiyun City this time?"
"Miss Tan's grandfather passed away a few months ago. Dixing personally went to Haiyun City to look for it," Ji Yannuo continued. "Although he did not find Miss Tan's father and brother, he found them near Erlidi in the western suburbs of Haiyun City.
There are suspicious traces, I suggest we go there and have a look."
"But didn't Prime Minister Luo say that the ore they mined would be sent to the area three miles south of Haiyun City after being purified?" Ye Fuxun asked.
The King of Qin and the King of Chu looked at each other: "It would be a good idea to let Prime Minister Luo know where the iron tools are actually made. It is not surprising to do so."
"In that case, it would be best for us to rush to Haiyun City as soon as possible to investigate."
After a brief discussion, everyone continued on their way.
Two days later, the group arrived at a village five miles outside Haiyun City. Ji Yannuo and King Chu found the villagers and rented a house for everyone to stay.
"Tomorrow morning, I and fourth brother will go to Haiyun City to investigate," Ji Yannuo looked at everyone, "How about fifth brother staying here to take care of fifth sister-in-law and Ah Xun?"
No one had any objections.
Early the next morning, Ji Yannuo and King Chu set out at dawn.
Ye Fuxun went to bed late, and when he got up, he ate the breakfast prepared by Ji Yannuo. He saw King Qin sitting in the courtyard reading a book, while Princess Qin stood at the door of the courtyard and looked at the courtyard next door.
"Concubine Ye," Princess Qin saw Ye Fuxun coming out and turned around to greet him, "You are heavy, so you should rest more in the room. Your fifth brother and I will arrange lunch."
Yesterday's dinner was cooked by Ji Yannuo and the King of Chu. It goes without saying that Ji Yannuo's craftsmanship is good. The King of Chu is used to marching and can cook simple meals.
King Qin and Princess Qin wanted to help, but they were really amateurs in the kitchen. It would be more practical for her to cook our lunch today.
However, seeing that Princess Qin was full of enthusiasm, Ye Fuxun didn't want to throw cold water on her. Thinking that it would be good to leave some space for the couple to be alone, she went back to the house as usual.
I planned to take another nap and go out to make something to eat when it was almost noon. Unexpectedly, I was woken up by the noise outside not long after I slept.
Ye Fuxun came out of the house and looked up to see Princess Qin being helped into the next room by King Qin in an extremely embarrassed state.
Her hair was messy and seemed to have a lot of chicken feathers stuck in it, and the skirt she was wearing was dirty and torn.
