Happiness System
Chapter 397: True Gold's Escape 59
In the morning, Meng Yuxi took Cen Lei and his mother to the Lin family to pick up Mrs. Lin, and then went to the Liu family together to finalize the marriage.
We had a simple lunch together at noon, and that was the end of the ceremony.
They agreed to choose a date for the wedding once Cen Lei’s house was completed.
In fact, the Liu family hoped to get the wedding done as soon as possible. They were afraid that something might go wrong in the process. Besides, Meng Yuxi was a man of his words, so they were not worried that the agreed house could not be delivered.
But Cen Lei finally got married, and Luo Hui naturally didn't want to let her daughter-in-law down. Not getting married in the bridal chamber also became a knot in her daughter-in-law's heart, and she didn't want to make the wedding too rough no matter what.
Meng Yuxi was pregnant with three babies. After a morning of work, she was not only mentally but also physically exhausted. She did not go for a stroll around the village that day.
After thinking for a while, she asked Xiao Xia, "If you and Wen Cheng want to get married soon, I will arrange the wedding for you when he comes back this time?"
Xiao Xia blushed, but still said firmly: "Madam, I want to consider marriage after the young master is born."
Meng Yuxi nodded, "It's okay if any of you change your mind."
The next day, Wen Cheng and Cen Lei took their people out. Before leaving, they handed over the work in their hands to the promoted people, so Meng Yuxi didn't need to worry too much.
Apart from the fact that it was a little inconvenient at first when ordering people around, there was nothing else wrong.
The residential land enclosed by the Wen family is very large. Because Meng Yuxi was pregnant and due to climate issues, no house was built, and the vacant land became a large vegetable garden.
The fruits and vegetables grown were almost all eaten up at home, so Luo Hui would pick a basket of vegetables and go to Liu's house to visit her daughter-in-law every one or two days.
After so many incidents, the Liu family felt embarrassed and asked Liu Feiyan to come to the Wen family to help take care of the vegetable garden.
Liu Feiyan is not a squeamish person. When she was fleeing famine in the past, she would often follow the large group to look for food. A vegetable garden is no big deal for her.
But Luo Hui couldn't bear to let her daughter-in-law do these rough work. The girl would not be beautiful if she got tanned!
Luo Hui led her to do needlework and make snacks, and then Liu Feiyan found that the snacks she made were basically eaten by the Liu family members, and her clothes were also worn on her body.
The Liu family was speechless when they saw Liu Feiyan’s slow reaction. This fool has good fortune!
Doing business these days is not that easy. When Wen Cheng and the others returned, it was already midsummer, almost a month later than planned.
The Cen family’s house has been built, and Luo Hui goes to see it every few days.
The furniture had already been prepared, but she always felt that the house was empty. When she returned to the Wen family's house, she discovered that ornaments and curtains were missing!
"Oh, why didn't I think of this? What should I do now? These things are not easy to buy!"
When she heard the news that her son would be back soon, Luo Hui saw that the house would be ready soon, so she hurried to find a Taoist priest to calculate an auspicious date. The date he got was very close, only half a month away.
Seeing that her son was about to arrive home, she realized that something was missing at home and became annoyed.
However, the road leading to the outside of Tianyuan City is now open. It only takes ten days to go to the nearest county town by horse carriage. However, there is nothing good there!
I always feel that my daughter-in-law is wronged!
While Luo Hui was struggling, Wen Cheng and his group finally returned.
He watched people move the things to the shop's warehouse and arranged for people to guard it, then hurried back home.
Having been savages for several days, they naturally would not run up to Meng Yuxi.
After they went into the house from the side and washed up, they found that the kitchen had already prepared a big bowl of hot noodles for them.
So, eat first and then go?!
When they finished eating, they looked up and saw Xiao Xia standing outside the door.
"Xiao Xia!" Wen Cheng was a little surprised.
Xiao Xia smiled and nodded at him, "Madam asked you to take a good rest and not to rush over to report."
"Then I'll go back first!" Cen Lei said hello and left.
As the first person to discover that the two were having an affair, he was naturally sensible.
I originally wanted to go back to my room and have a good sleep, but in the end I didn't do that.
Luo Hui waited day and night until her son finally came back. She immediately took him to the new house and told him that the family needed everything. The wedding date had been set, so she asked him to prepare everything quickly.
It’s not that his mother doesn’t prepare anything for him, but the prices in Tianyuan City are too high!
The things Cen Lei bought were still in the storeroom of the shop and had not been separated yet. He asked someone to move the things to the new house and asked his mother to count and see what was missing and make a list so that he could make a plan.
To be honest, he had originally wanted to welcome Miss Liu back after winter, but he didn't expect his mother to be so anxious.
He was also having a headache. Now that the goods were back, they would have to busy themselves with opening the shop.
Getting married at this time, and in such a hurry, won't that just cause trouble?
He thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
Meng Yuxi's belly is now so big that she doesn't have the energy to take care of the shop, so she handed it over to Wen Yujin.
She is lucky enough to be able to manage the manor now, but she is powerless to do anything else.
Although Mu Yao and Lin Xixi are older than her, they have a much easier time than her. Although they don't come to see her every day, they come over once every three to five days.
The two came over again that day, and Meng Yuxi greeted them with a smile, "You're here, I was just thinking of asking someone to send you something, now it's good, I can save the effort!"
"Hey, why did I want to come look for you so much today? It turns out I smelled something!"
Mu Yao and Lin Qianqian were also very surprised when they saw the fabrics in front of them. There were naturally many smart people in Tianyuan City. Although not everything could be bought in the city, fabrics were available.
The price is just too high!
Although the Meng family has some assets, those are all heirlooms, and they do not have much cash.
They really don’t want to buy these expensive things!
Meng Yuxi also gave them some tiger-head hats and small quilts.
The weather gets cold early in Xincheng, and by the time they have given birth and finished their confinement period, it will be late autumn and winter.
Of course, we are not just sending them there. There are several pregnant women in the Meng family, and they cannot be left behind.
Mu Yao and Lin Xixi accompanied her for lunch and then happily took the food back home.
Meng Yuxi was just about to take a nap when Meng Yiyun came over.
"Is there something wrong, father?"
Meng Yiyun would come over sometimes, but usually when Wen Yujin was at home.
Meng Yiyun gave her a hand and said, "You are heavy, just sit down. Why are you getting up?"
After a pause, he continued, "I went to the farm this morning to take a look. If nothing unexpected happens, the harvest this year should be good.
I've looked at other places, and although they're not as good as ours, they're not bad either.
The land in Xincheng is fertile, and after the autumn harvest, no one has to worry about food and clothing.
I want to build the academy first."
Meng Yuxi touched her belly and smiled, "I thought it was a big deal! Two more brick kilns have been opened recently. Father can just send someone over to tell them. It won't delay anything else.
However, the imperial court recently sent people here, asking for an academy to be set up in Tianyuan City to teach Longhai Mandarin and laws.
I don’t know the exact daughter. When Brother Jin comes back later, I will ask him to go find his father. I don’t know if there will be any conflict.”
Meng Yiyun smiled and shook his head, "I don't think so. My academy is not open to nobles, and I don't think about making a profit. I just plan to recruit talented children of commoners."
Meng Yuxi nodded and said, "Then don't get tired, Dad. My brothers are at home, just tell them to do it if there's anything.
By the way, father, what do you think of Ah Xu?
Wen Cheng and the others went out smoothly this time. If you don't have any plans, I'm thinking of letting Ah Xu go out with you next time."
Speaking of his youngest son who was neither good at literature nor martial arts, Meng Yiyun sighed, "You said he was fine when he was young, but he became crooked as he grew up?
Our Meng family has never had a playboy for generations, and I think he seems to want to break this tradition and become the first one.
Originally, I was planning to open a bookstore for him after the academy was established, so that he could go out and try his luck."
Knowing that his daughter's pregnancy was not easy and her body was heavy, Meng Yiyun sat for a while, finished his business, and then went back.
Meng Yuxi has been really miserable lately. She has trouble eating and sleeping. Unfortunately, she is still three months away from giving birth!
Just hang in there!
It will only be harder in the later stages!
Soon, it was Cen Lei's wedding day.
Meng Yuxi didn't want to offend the bride, so she just asked Wen Yujin to bring the gifts and drink the wedding wine.
But the next day, Luo Hui still brought his new wife over to sit with him.
"Oh, sorry for the delay, sister-in-law, please sit down!"
Meng Yuxi took a close look at the new bride. She was of average appearance, not stunning, but the type that would become more beautiful the more you looked at her and the more comfortable you felt with her.
Liu Feiyan was still not used to the change of identity. She was a little shy and didn't know what to do.
Luo Hui was very happy. She took a pair of shoes and said, "Qingqing, look, these are the shoes your sister-in-law made for you!
The Liu family has an ancestral skill in making shoes, and this pair is very suitable for pregnant women to wear!"
Luo Hui praised her new daughter-in-law again and again, which made Liu Feiyan feel embarrassed and her face turned red.
"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law!" Meng Yuxi said a few polite words and asked Xiaoxia to send over the prepared headwear.
This time Luo Hui felt a little embarrassed. She originally wanted to show off her daughter-in-law and also to encourage her adopted daughter to develop a relationship with her daughter-in-law. She really didn't come here to ask for anything.
"This?" Liu Feiyan looked at her mother-in-law and was embarrassed to accept it. "Madam Wen, I have already shamelessly accepted a set of expensive headwear from you, but I dare not..."
"Yes, you have already given it. How can a younger sister give two gifts to her sister-in-law?" Luo Hui also declined.
"Keep it. It's not a very expensive thing. It just looks good. You can take it with you for fun!"
Meng Yuxi did not give him a chance to refuse and changed the subject to talk about other things.
These head ornaments were made by a craftsman who was found recently, so they are really nothing special.
