Chapter 503 Proposal

"Don't see me off, we are all family, we can go back by ourselves!" Grandma Qin Liu's face was almost broken with laughter.

The Lu family really knew how to get things done. They returned half of the gifts to her family, and also gave her a few more pieces of embroidery cloth and a jar of soybean paste.

"Okay then, my sister-in-law's family won't see them off. I wish my sister-in-law and I a safe journey." Although Mrs. Lu said so, the Lu family still sent Lu Dawen to send the Qin family to the village entrance.

Grandma Qin Liu was in high spirits, like a victorious rooster. If Qin Ying hadn't reminded her constantly, she would have made the news of her family's engagement with Patriarch Lu's family known to everyone.

After arriving at the west of the village, Qin Liupo went to Qin Xiaomi's house and boasted to Qin Xiaomi about Lu Jiu: "A girl who is gentle, obedient and hardworking is a real girl, unlike..."

She looked at Qin Xiaomi with bright eyes, I'm talking about you, you spunky girl!

Ha, Qin Xiaomi sneered: "It seems that Liu Po ​​is tired of the good life and wants to go back to the hard life. Okay, I am kind-hearted and will help Liu Po ​​and let her return all the dividends she got from the workshop."

Refund, refund the dividends!

Qin Liupo was completely dumbfounded. This time she was really scared. She quickly apologized and ran away.

Seeing that Qin Liupo was frightened, Grandma Qin reminded Qin Xiaomi: "Xiaomi, don't be too fierce to your elders."

Qin Xiaomi said, "Grandma, you can't give some girls too much face. You have to pull them out and beat them up from time to time. If you don't beat them up enough, they will dare to cause trouble for you. Liu Po ​​is such a person."

Grandma Qin: “…”

At dawn the next day, Grandma Qin Liu came to the Qin family again and looked for Grandma Qin, asking her to accompany her to the county town to find an expert to match her horoscopes.

This was the first time that the families had married locals after settling down, so they had to get things done properly. Grandma Qin agreed.

Grandpa Qin was worried about Grandma Qin, so he called Qin Dayan and his wife to go with him.

When they came back in the evening, Granny Qin Liu shouted loudly so that the whole village could hear: "This is a match made in heaven. They will have many children and grandchildren, and will be blessed with wealth, longevity and happiness. Their descendants will not only become marquises, but will definitely marry the marquis' daughter!"

Qin Xiaomi: "..."

How much money did you give to the fortune teller to get so many good words from him?

"Do you know what a marquis is? He is a nobleman that the prefect has to kneel down when he sees him. He has a title!"

"Do you know what a title is? It means that your descendants will never have to worry about food and clothing, and the court will provide them with money to support them!"

Grandma Qin couldn't bear to listen any longer: "Sixth brother's wife, that's enough, the Marquis is not someone we can talk too much about."

Qin Liupo: "Yes, yes, yes, no need to say more, everyone just waits for my great-grandson to marry the Marquis' daughter!"

The next day, the tenth day, the Qin family sent a message to the Lu family, saying that their horoscopes were compatible and that it was an excellent match.

The Lu family was very happy when they learned about it.

In the next few days, Grandpa Qin and his men went to the county town every day to invite official matchmakers, purchase gifts for the marriage proposal, and select a date for the proposal.

April 22nd is an auspicious day that experts say represents double blessings.

As soon as the day broke, all the officials drove to the ghost village. According to the custom, they first offered sacrifices and then tied a lucky belt on the marriage proposal gift. Then, they sang wedding songs and took the Qin family to Lujia Village.

The villagers had already heard about the Qin and Lu families' marriage proposal, and many of them came to ask for wedding cakes.

All official media laughed: "The wedding cakes have been prepared long ago. As long as the villagers help the Qin family boy to bow three times to the master and ask God to bless him to succeed in his marriage proposal, the wedding cakes will be distributed immediately!"

The villagers also gave face and bowed towards the east: "May God bless the Qin family to succeed in their marriage proposal... Remember to give out wedding cakes!"

"It will definitely be a success, folks, just wait!" Granny Qin Liu was so happy that she couldn't pretend anymore. She shouted at the top of her voice and urged Qin Ying, "Drive faster, I'm in a hurry to marry my son!"

"Mom, please speak elegantly today." Qin Ying was very happy, but she did not speed up the car. There were many people on the road, and it was a happy day, so she had to be careful.

"Okay, okay, I'm elegant!" Qin Liupo thought, she could just pretend for one more day, and after the marriage was settled, she could continue to act wildly.

At the beginning of the si hour, the auspicious time mentioned by the expert, the Qin family, with one horse, two donkeys and three carriages, entered Lujia Village.

The children from Lujia Village came running to lead the way for all the official media.

The official media sang wedding words all the way. When they arrived at the door of Chief Lu's house, they performed various rituals and knocked on the door three times. Finally, Chief Lu's door opened.

"I have good news for your family. The Qin family of Xinyan heard that your daughter is beautiful and intelligent, suitable for marriage and family, filial to her parents and caring for the younger generation. She is a rare good girl in the area, so they specially asked me to come and propose marriage!"

The official media were all professional, and they said nice things for free. To show the sincerity of the man's family, they hurriedly asked someone to bring the marriage gift: "In addition to the 22 taels of betrothal money, there are ten more gifts. It's perfect!"

The betrothal gift alone was twenty-two taels. When the time comes to get married, won’t the betrothal gift be huge? !

Everyone in Lujia Village was shocked and extremely envious, wishing they could take advantage of the situation and welcome the Qin family into their own homes.

"It's time to bring in the gifts for proposing marriage!" the matchmaker shouted, and she sang a line of wedding words for each gift she brought in.

The marriage proposal gift that Qin Ying brought was quite impressive, including two bundles of marriage incense, two rolls of red cloth, wine, tea cakes, candies, wedding cakes, white flour, meat, two carps, and two large geese.

Only the rich and powerful can afford wild geese; in the countryside, people only give wild geese.

The Lu family was extremely satisfied, and the two families had discussed it long ago, so they quickly agreed to the marriage.

"The marriage is successful, the wedding cakes are sent out!" Matchmaker Quan shouted happily.

The Qin family quickly carried the two baskets of wedding cakes they had prepared out of the car and distributed them to everyone.

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Patriarch Lu, your family has found a great son-in-law!"

Patriarch Lu wanted to hold back, but the Qin family gave him too much, so he couldn't hold it back any longer and kept laughing, which made Mrs. Lu want to pinch him.

The marriage was arranged, and the Qin family was kept at the Lu family for a simple meal.

Before the meal was over, the news that the Qin and Lu families were getting married and that the Qin family had sent generous gifts and betrothal money had spread throughout Taifeng Town.

The villagers were extremely envious and scolded Patriarch Lu for being too smart and taking down the Qin family so early.

Lu Heiwang's home.

Lu Heiwang's wife laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you were still looking at the Qin family kid who was trying to scam people, but he didn't even look at you. Now he is engaged to the daughter of the clan leader and gave her a betrothal gift of twenty-two taels!"

With a clang, Lu Sanhong opened the door and pointed at Lu Heiwang's wife and said, "Lu Cao, who are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, I will let my brother divorce you and marry another virgin girl!"

Mrs. Lu Cao: "Bah! Do you think your brother is the master of a rich family? He married a virgin girl? He divorced me, let alone find a mother. He is already wanted if he can serve water to wash the feet of Wu Lao Si!"

Lü Heiwang: “…”

"No, why are you quarreling and scolding me? Why bring water to wash the feet of Wu Lao Si? I don't have his hobby of stirring up trouble!"

"Why should I scold you? It's because you invited the mother and daughter home that the family is in turmoil!" Mrs. Lu Cao began to settle accounts: "They came back at the end of March and ate at our house for most of a month, but you didn't pay them a penny. How can you treat your sister-in-law like this? Do you think your mother's house is her granary?"

"Get out today, or you'll have to pay for your food and lodging. If you don't, I'll make you three, mother and daughter, lose your reputation!"

Lv Sanhong was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He called Lv Heiwang to take charge: "Little brother, Lv Caoshi doesn't take you seriously. As a man, if you don't beat her up, how will the villagers look at you?!"

"Bitch, you've been eating up most of your mother's family's rice for free, and you even instigated your brother to beat his wife. I'm going to beat you to death, you troublemaker!" Lu Cao picked up a broom and hit Lu Sanhong with it.

Lu Sanhong was beaten so hard that she screamed in pain, but she was unwilling to show weakness and picked up a stool and smashed it on Lu Cao.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting now!" Lu Heiwang wanted to stop the fight, but it was useless. He accidentally injured two women and got bruises on his face and body.
