"Yuan Yuan is very good-looking and lovable. Don't worry about your big face. When you get older, your face will become smaller." Gu Jinli said with a smile.
After hearing this, Shang Yuanyuan felt better, and said worriedly: "Sister Xiaoyu, I won't cause you any trouble, right? That is General Xiao Guo. If he is angry, will he anger you and Brother Sanlang?"
Shang Yuanyuan blamed himself. He was too impulsive and should not have taken action.
Gu Jinli said: "No, General Xiao Guo is not a stingy person. He is very careless. I think he will forget this matter soon. If you don't go to the front yard and let him see it, he will remember it."
After hearing this, Shang Yuanyuan felt relieved and nodded: "Okay, Yuanyuan will stay here with Sister Xiaoyu."
It is the right time, and it is an auspicious time for the Qin family to send betrothal gifts to the Gu family.
Zong's matchmaker put on a grand make-up, took the Qin family's ancestors and grandson, and carried boxes of engagement gifts covered with red silk cloth to the Gu family.
Zong's matchmaker used ancient rituals, so the whole engagement ceremony started before leaving the Qin family's gate. By the time they entered the Gu's family's gate, half an hour had passed.
By the time the red silk was unveiled and the engagement ceremony was held, more than half an hour had passed.
However, although the ancient ceremony was complicated, everyone felt that it was worth the wait, because the engagement gift that Qin Sanlang gave to Gu Jinli was very beautiful. Others only gave three pieces of hair, face, and jewelry as their engagement gifts, but he gave nine pieces. I gave him two kinds, one with gold head and one with pearl head, which symbolizes the happiness of long-term pairing.
Two kinds of eighteen sets of engagement gifts were given out, and everyone present was shocked. They found a treasure. They didn't expect that Sanlang was so rich!
Seeing these betrothal gifts, everyone wanted to bring their daughters and grandchildren to Qin Sanlang as concubines.
Thinking of Gu Jinli's fierceness, he reluctantly gave up the idea.
Mrs. Chen drooled as she stared at the eighteen-toned noodle. She was so rich. Not only did she give him gold noodle, but she also gave her pearl noodle. If one of these big pearls could be sold, they would fetch at least dozens of taels of silver.
With this thought, Ms. Chen's hands immediately felt itchy and she couldn't help but want to grab the big pearl on her head, but Gu Dagui slapped her back.
In addition to these proper engagement gifts, the Qin family also sent a congratulatory gift from Mrs. Guo, which turned out to be a pair of small jade Ruyi.
The jade Ruyi is only **** wide and one palm long, but such a pair of Ruyi jade is not affordable for people in the countryside.
Village Chief He almost fainted after looking at it: "The jade is Ruyi, it is still real, not polished by stone. It costs at least a few hundred taels of silver, right? This is the first time in our countryside. Back then, Zou County Cheng married Mrs. Zou didnt even give her jade as a gift.
And this pair of Ruyi jades was given by General Guo's wife. She was the general's wife. Because of her status, the value of this pair of Ruyi jades would have increased several times.
The Qin family is really going to make a fortune.
Village Chief He was so excited that he really wanted to **** people from Gu Jinli and take Qin Sanlang back. How come such a good young man is not the uncle of their He family?
The He family and the Lu family thought the same way.
In the past, they were afraid that Qin Sanlang had evil spirits. Both his parents were dead and his life was not good, so they despised him. But now they still despise him. They wish he would immediately break off the engagement with the Gu family and come to marry them.
No matter how envious the He family and the Lu family were, Qin Sanlang had Gu Jinli in his heart. After making Gu Jinli look very angry, he was taken to the backyard flower hall and sat in the flower hall, waiting for Gu Jinli to come and give him a robe.
Not long after, Gu Jinli was supported by Er Qing and walked towards Qin Sanlang step by step according to the rules mentioned by the matchmaker.
She did not tie her hair in a bun today, but let down half of her hair. Her long, satin-like hair moved lightly as she walked around. She was wearing a light red dress, which made her look more mature. One part is bright and the whole person is very beautiful.
Qin Sanlang couldn't sit still, stood up unconsciously, and stared at her.
Gu Jinli noticed his scorching gaze and couldn't bear it. He raised his head slightly and glared at him, which made Qin Sanlang's breath suffocate... He felt that he could die for her at this moment. Gu Jinli was helpless, why didn't his glare make him look away, instead it became more passionate?
Forget it, pretend not to see it, and finish the engagement ceremony first.
Zong's matchmaker asked her not to walk too fast. According to the rhythm, she walked for half a quarter of an hour before she came to Qin Sanlang and handed him the robe: "Love is a strong needle, love is a long thread, sew love clothes, please Qin Jia Langjun accepts it."
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh words words that make her blush and heartbeat. It's so shameful.
Qin Sanlang smiled, looked down at her slightly, and after being glared at by her again, he took off his clothes and said: "If you accept this girl's affection, I will cherish it forever."
Gu Jinli:
Damn, your words are even more shameful.
Gu Jinli felt that he could no longer hold it in, but fortunately, after the matchmaker asked them to bow to each other, he finally shouted "It's done", and this complicated and embarrassing engagement ceremony was completed.
Gu Jinli couldn't stay longer, Zong's matchmaker asked Erqing to help her back to the room.
On this day, the Gu family was very lively because of the arrival of General Xiao Guo and Qin Sanlang's eighteen sets of masks. The guests drank and ate until the evening.
Gu Jinli was already exhausted. He had eaten early, took a shower, and went to bed to sleep.
But she was still wearing the light red dress from today. She knew that Qin Sanlang liked this dress and knew that he would definitely come tonight, so she wore it specially.
She guessed right. In the middle of the night, after a busy day, Qin Sanlang came to see her after taking a bath. When he saw that she was wearing a light red dress during the day, his eyes lit up and he said: "It looks good."
He asked again: "Did you wear it specially for me?"
Just as he knows that she likes to wear dark robes, he always wears dark robes when he comes to see her, so that she can be more happy when she sees him.
Gu Jinli shook his head: "That's wrong. I think this dress looks good. I'm wearing it for myself. Don't be too sentimental."
How could Qin Sanlang believe it? He held her face, murmured a lie, then lowered his head and kissed her.
He was very happy today, even kissing her became eager and greedy.
Gu Jinli let him kiss her, raised her hands to hug his waist, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "We are finally officially engaged, and we will get married soon. It's so fast."
She actually never thought about getting married. She just wanted to earn enough money, set up a female household, and adopt two children to live her life. But when she met him, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
Zong's matchmaker didn't stay long. After completing the engagement ceremony for them, he left with Guo Qiang the next day.
Qin Sanlang had a holiday and was in no hurry to leave, but he didn't have any time off either. In addition to accompanying Gu Jinli, he was also busy arranging for Gu Jinan and the others to go to Linhe Prefecture to take the college examination.
The college examination starts on the ninth day of June, and today is already May 20. Gu Jinan and the others will leave for Linhe Mansion tomorrow, and they have been packing their luggage all day today.
We have to go to Xu's house and Qu Xiucai's house to decide on the place and time to meet.
