In order to prepare for the marriage between Huo Yunchao and Xu Ning, the old patriarch of the Huo clan sent out most of the clan to make such a big noise that it alerted the Xu clan members who were also preparing for the wedding.

The old patriarch of the Xu family was humiliated by Butcher Xu several times in succession. He did not want to be hot-faced and cold-hearted, so he ordered others to go to Butcher Xu to make peace. The main purpose was to persuade Butcher Xu to think more about his grandson's future and not commit suicide. The road back is cloudy.

Butcher Xu didn't take the people who came to make peace seriously, he just treated them as if they were making a big fuss.

He had no intention of inviting anyone from the Xu clan to the wedding banquet from the beginning, and he didn't even mention Xu Dadun, his blood brother.

Xu Ying married into the landlord Zhou's family in the town, so the Xu family members were naturally more willing to come to Xu Dadun's family to help.

People of the Xu clan took it for granted that landlord Zhou’s family held a wedding banquet, how could they be stingy? Wouldn't that make people laugh?

In fact, the people of the Xu clan had the right idea. Landlord Zhou's family specially sent ten taels of silver and told Xu Dadun to use the ten taels of silver for a banquet.

After all, it was Young Master Zhou's wedding. Even if it was his third marriage to an illiterate country girl, the banquet should not be too shabby.

In order to prevent Xu Dadun from stealing the money needed to prepare for the wedding, Lu failed to get the money from Xu Dadun. Instead, she publicized it in the village, saying that landlord Zhou valued Xu Ying so much that he gave her ten taels of silver. Plan a banquet!

When the people of the Xu clan heard Lu's propaganda, their heads were full of meat and meat!

There must be pots of fat pigs, ducks and chickens at Xu Ying's wedding banquet to welcome their arrival!

Until the day before the wedding, matchmaker Fang sent the latest instructions to Landlord Zhou’s family: “Xu Ying will definitely

You have to leave the house before the first rooster crows tomorrow. I have brought the comb girl who is specially designed to clean and dress the bride. You move faster, otherwise you will miss the auspicious time to get into the sedan chair, and your daughter will be delayed. Later in life! "

Lu subconsciously felt that there was something fishy going on, "Why do you want to go out so early? Then the ceremony for my Ying Niang to go out will not be held?"

Matchmaker Fang was too lazy to talk to Mr. Lu and said directly: "This is an auspicious time for Landlord Zhou to invite him back in person. If you don't agree, ask him yourself!"

Mrs. Lu didn't expect to be poked back by Matchmaker Fang in front of her, and she was furious: "Fang, why are you so crazy? You are just a matchmaker who collects money to do things. How great do you really think you are?"

This was not the first time that Matchmaker Fang was as stingy as Mrs. Lu and turned her back on others. She smiled instead of getting angry: "If you can't trust me, you can find another matchmaker."

Seeing that Matchmaker Fang was really angry, Xu Dadun shouted angrily: "Why are you making a fuss on Ying Niang's happy day? It's important for us to send Ying Niang to get married, so don't do anything stupid!"

Because she didn't have the ten taels of banquet money in her pocket, Mrs. Lu was indignant. She threw Xu Dadun away, pointed at Matchmaker Fang's nose and cursed: "Landlord Zhou is so rich and powerful, and his family is not only famous. Is it worth ten taels of silver? Don’t be the matchmaker like you who secretly took the money given by the Zhou family!"

Matchmaker Fang looked at Xu Dadun with sharp eyes. She saw small sweat on his forehead and sneered. Before she could speak, Xu Dadun turned his back to Lu and made a "five" sign to her.

Seeing that Matchmaker Fang didn't respond, Xu Dadun quickly made another sign of "one" and winked crazily:

"五" means five hundred coins

.

"One" means one tael of silver.

Matchmaker Fang narrowed her eyes. She took this order just to make money. Naturally, she would not be in trouble with Xuehua Baiyin. Xu Dadun had the knowledge and interest to pay her hush money, and she reluctantly helped him keep it a secret.

Xu Dadun gave Matchmaker Fang one tael of silver as hush money behind Lu's back!

For Xu Dadun, who has less than five taels of private money, paying matchmaker Fang the hush money is like cutting out the flesh and scraping the bones! Hemorrhage!

Xu Dadun's flesh ached terribly, but he knew very well how strong the Lu family was in combat. If he wanted to secretly save money for his private life, he had to pinch his nose and admit his defeat.

Matchmaker Fang could earn a tael of money just by talking a few words, and her originally terrible mood turned cloudy and clear in an instant.

When she entered Xu Ying's house, Matchmaker Fang had an extra tael of silver in her pocket, and her face was no longer angry.

Matchmaker Fang coaxed Xu Ying like Little Red Riding Hood's wolf grandmother: "Ms. Ying, you have to go out early. You have to start from here at the first rooster crow. It's just the right time to arrive in town. So, you won't be able to sleep tonight. Wait, the comb girl will come in to wash you up later. A woman will only suffer for this day in her life, Ying Niang, please bear with it."

When matchmaker Fang came to the house and said that she wanted to change the date of the wedding, she said that the auspicious day was calculated by a master. Why did the Zhou family change their story in less than a month?

Did something bad happen to her in the Zhou family?

The more Xu Ying thought about it, the more something was wrong. She asked, "Matchmaker Fang, didn't you ask a master to calculate the time when you leave your home? Why did you suddenly change it?"

Naturally, Matchmaker Fang would not tell the real reason. She just found an excuse to deal with Xu Ying: "Master watches the stars at night and sends people to Zhou Ying all night long."

The family said that the time should be changed. "

This reason is very convincing, but Xu Ying still has doubts, but she is blocked by Matchmaker Fang: "The landlord said that he must leave before the first rooster crows, I am just here to convey the message. Ying Niang, you marry Entering the Zhou family is a sure thing, it's done, you don't have to think so much."

Xu Ying wanted to inquire more, but Matchmaker Fang was too lazy to deal with her probing, so she called Comb Niang and the maid in: "Sushi Niang, please move quickly, don't miss the auspicious time of Master Zhou!"

Comb Lady and the maids filed in, surrounding Xu Ying on the left and right: "Miss Xu, please take a bath and change clothes."

It would take at least half an hour for Xu Miles to wash up and trim his nails. Then he would dry his hair, trim off the excess eyebrows, apply rouge and gouache, and make a beautiful bun. The whole set would take at least an hour and a half. hour.

The bride Xu Ying has to wash up and dress up for two hours. Matchmaker Fang has nothing to do. She needs to recharge her batteries. When she sends Xu Ying to Landlord Zhou's house, there is still a tough battle to be fought. Woolen cloth.

A lot of bad things that have happened in the Zhou family these days are waiting for her to solve. Matchmaker Fang thought of the line sung in the opera - the little devil in the temple is strong, but the Chi Qian is full of bastards!

Sigh, it’s hard for the Zhou family to earn money from matchmakers!

Xu Ying had never been taken care of by anyone since she was a child. She was so coquettish that she delayed her combing mother's work.

The comb girl and the maid not only had to help Xu Ying cut the smooth nails on her hands and feet, but also help her remove the stray hairs on her body.

When she heard the comb girl asking her to raise her arms, she asked and found out that the comb girl wanted to help her shave the hair under her armpits...

Xu Ying felt very ashamed and asked in a low voice: "Can you not shave?"

She is conservative and loves herself

, no one saw it except herself.

Mother Shu was delayed in her work schedule, so she got a little emotional and replied coldly: "Young Master Zhou loves to be clean."
