Interstellar female dressed as country dude

Xie Ling's marriage can be regarded as an agreement with the Wei family.

Three days later, Wei Han, the third wife of the Wei family, came to propose marriage with his wife.

To show their sincerity, the Wei family offered a dowry of 5000 taels.

Although this number is not top-notch in Beijing, with the financial resources of the Wei family as a third-bedroom, I am afraid that they have tried their best, and there is also the support of Wei Hou Ye and Wei Madam.

Xie Ling wanted to marry Nansha far away, Xie Huaiyu felt a little depressed.

But his younger brother liked it, and he couldn't force it. Although he didn't give Wei Han any good looks on his face, he still complied.

Because Wei Qiong was going to take up the post soon after the year, the two families discussed it and set the wedding day in the first month.

As for the specific date, he still has to go to the Taoist temple to find someone to calculate, and also choose a good day and auspicious day that suits the horoscope of the two.

In this way, there are only two months left, and Xie Ling's dowry must be prepared as soon as possible.

Originally, Xie Huaiyu had planned to give those shops in central Beijing to Xie Ling, but Xie Ling was going to Nansha, which was far away from Beijing, so the operation of the shops would be inconvenient.

Thinking about it, Bai Shu said to Xie Huaiyu: "This shop in the middle of the capital should not be managed by Xie Ling at all. Now the family's property, if you say it is the closest to Nansha, is the Baiyu Villa in Nanyang."

"That Zhuangzi has tens of thousands of cooperatives, so there is no need to worry too much. After the division, the net profit of thirty thousand silver in the two quarters is not cheap. Why don't you transfer that Zhuangzi to Xie Ling's name and forget it as his dowry .”

"But that Zhuangzi was managed by you alone." Xie Huaiyu frowned.It's fine to give his own property to Xie Ling. After all, this Zhuangzi was created by Baishu, if he just gave it to Xie Ling like this...

Bai Shu heard the words but smiled: "What is yours and mine? You still distinguish these things from me now? The Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing is about to be completed, and it will open in the next year. I don't bother to take care of Nanyang. Hand it over to Xie Ling, so that he won't worry about money in Nansha."

Bai Shu was sincere, and Xie Huaiyu didn't want to refute his meaning, so he nodded and said: "Everything is arranged by Madam, and the affairs of this family are up to you."

Hearing this, Bai Shu's heart was filled with warmth, and he felt a little secretly complacent.

I really have a good vision, so I chose a husband-in-law like Xie Huaiyu. Now it seems that everything is really good.

After this was settled, Bai Shu called Xie Ling over and talked about it with him.

Xie Ling was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Bai Shu to give him such a huge dowry.

The original shopfronts are almost unmatched in Beijing.After all, adding up several shops, there is almost 3 taels of silver a year.

But the White Jade Villa in Nanyang is different.According to Bai Shu, Zhuangzi earned 3 taels in just two seasons, wouldn't he earn 6 taels a year?

This kind of dowry is comparable to that of Qi Qingwan.

Xie Ling was about to refuse, but Bai Shu said: "This matter has been decided, so you don't have to refuse. Your brother is worried about you, and you have this dowry by your side, so you have more confidence, so that he can rest assured in Beijing .”

"In addition, Nansha and Nanyang are not far away. Although one is in Daxuan territory and the other is outside Daxuan, it takes only half a day for a horse-drawn carriage to arrive. It will be more convenient for you to go home with Wanjia's caravan. If you have something on weekdays, you can also call it Wanjia. Help deliver the letter."

Xie Ling was moved in his heart, Bai Shu's arrangement had already helped him think of all the way forward, so that people would not have to worry about the future.

In addition, this Zhuangzi still has to manage after all, and Bai Shu taught him his own management methods, told him a lot of Nanyang customs, and bought Nanyang-related strange stories for him to read.

"The climate and customs of Nanyang and Nansha are quite similar. You should learn more, not only for business. When Wei Qiong becomes an official in the future, your knowledge can also help him." Bai Shu said: "Wei Qiong is a student, you But there is not much background. Although the affection between the two is not affected by these ordinary things, if you are more knowledgeable and keep pace with him, wouldn't it be better?"

Xie Ling listened to Bai Shu's words from the bottom of his heart, and benefited a lot.I thought to myself that I would marry a husband in the future, so I shouldn't be lazy and lazy.

He has already honed himself in that jewelry business, and he is probably in the same blood, and he is also somewhat interested in that business.

Bai Shu saw it in his eyes, and nodded secretly. Since Xie Ling is so enlightened, Xie Huaiyu should be relieved.

Bai Shu wrote a letter to inform the Wan family at this time, and a few days later, he received a reply from the Wan family, saying that he already knew about it, and that Zhuangzi would look for Xie Ling in the future when he had any business.

The next day, Bai Shu took Xie Ling to the government office, and made the deed of Zhuangzi's transfer. After the official seal was stamped, Zhuangzi in Nanyang officially became Xie Ling's property.

These days, Wei Qiong was immersed in studying Nansha's human customs and customs. When he came to Xie's house to look for Xie Ling, he happened to see Xie Ling studying Nanyang affairs.

His eyes lit up, and he and Xie Ling had a lot to talk about, so he would often go to Xie's house and shut him in his room, talking for a whole afternoon.

Xie Huaiyu was also a little unhappy about this, and felt that although the two were engaged, they were not married after all, so it was too close.

Seeing him like this, Bai Shu was also amused, and said to him: "Then Wei Qiong is an honest person. These days, Xie Ling and Xie Ling have only held hands and never kissed each other. Even if there is something, the two of them are inseparable. There's nothing wrong with a sure-fire couple, so I don't know why you're nervous?"

Xie Huaiyu could only sigh and said: "When I was with you before, Xiaoshu always sighed, but now I understand his feelings in my heart."

In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the Baiyu Villa in the suburbs of Beijing was finally completed. The workers went home with red envelopes and had to wait for the New Year.

The sika deer in Baitang Village grew very well and gave birth to many more. Baishu picked more than a dozen of them as seeds and introduced them to other villages in the suburbs of Beijing.

On the day Xie Huaiyu repaired, Bai Shu went with him to the outskirts of Beijing to check the repaired Zhuangzi.

Zhuang Zixiu in the suburbs of Beijing is in the mountains, facing the fertile fields below.

The surroundings of Zhuangzi are quiet and deep, with a bleak winter scenery, and a natural lake in the shape of light green leaves behind, which is really a unique beauty.

This Zhuangzi is built in the mountains, which is more complicated than on the flat ground.So it took five full months to fix it.

Besides, it's cold in Beijing, and floor heating is also a must in Zhuangzi. When Bai Shu and the others came, someone lit up the floor heating.

The manager in Zhuangzi is a very experienced old man recruited by Baishu from elsewhere.

In addition, he picked up many former homeless children and asked them to work here.

Those children were raised for a year, and they learned a lot of skills, and they were loyal to Bai Shu. They also said that the Zhuangzi was airtight, which made Bai Shu feel at ease.

Bai Shu naturally reserved a room with the best view for himself, for him and Xie Huaiyu to come here for leisure on weekdays.

At this time, Zhuangzi had not yet opened, and there were only the two of them in the huge manor. They stayed here for a night and studied a lot of books.

On the next day, he didn't get up early in the morning, and he didn't order the servant to deliver the food to the door until noon.

Bai Shu is now six months pregnant, her belly is also protruding, she looks quite pregnant.

Xie Huaiyu didn't dare to open and close that movement.

But even so, yesterday was still too indulgent, Bai Shu thought and looked at Xie Huaiyu's face.

I saw him sitting in front of the bed, holding a bowl of eight-treasure porridge, blowing gently, revealing a little bit of pink tongue tip.

Thinking of the flexibility and squishiness there, Bai Zhu's face became hot, and he immediately recalled last night... the feeling in himself.

His breathing was disturbed for two minutes, and he felt really ashamed, because that thing made him cry a few times, and now his lower body is numb.

"Don't be hungry for too long, drink this porridge." Xie Huaiyu said and handed the spoon to Baishu's mouth.

Bai Shu took a sip, took the bowl and said, "I'll do it myself."

Xie Huaiyu handed him the bowl, took another one himself, and they finished eating together.

After asking someone to take away the bowls and plates, Xie Huaiyu lay down in bed again, holding Baizhu in his arms and unable to come out.

This scene seems to have returned to a year ago.

Xie Huaiyu touched Bai Zhu's stomach, and said with some emotion: "I never thought that after only one year, you have a child in your stomach."

"I'm going to give birth in April next year, and you're going to be in the spring again." Bai Shu said, "At that time, you will be the first in the exam, and the baby will be born. Double happiness will come, it must be very happy."

"How do you know I won't fail the ranking?" Xie Huaiyu asked a little funny after hearing Bai Shu's burning words.

"You definitely won't. You are Xie Huaiyu. If you fail the exam, who else can get in?" Bai Shu said seriously.

"What if you really failed the ranking?" Xie Huaiyu asked.

"Then you must be doing it on purpose because you don't want to be an official." Bai Shu said, "If you don't want to be an official, then you won't be. You can do whatever you want, even if you want to be a rice worm, I can afford it." of."

Xie Huaiyu shook her head when she heard the words, "What an unmotivated lady, everyone calls their own officials to be promoted to rank, but you call me a rice bug, tsk tsk, it's really depraved."

After saying that, he squeezed Bai Zhu's chin and kissed her again so hard that his eyes turned red.

He touched Bai Zhu's belly again and said, "I hope to give birth to a little brother like you."

Bai Shu blinked and said, "You like brother better? What if it's a boy or a girl?"

"Anything is fine." Xie Huaiyu said, "As long as it resembles yours, I like it..."

In the first month, Bai Shu and the others heard the news that the second prince went to the Wei family to propose marriage on the sixth day of the lunar new year, and made an appointment with Wei Ling.

Although everyone has already known about this matter in private, it is only now that it is truly confirmed.

The whole family of Lord Wei Hou has a bright face and a happy face.

Not long after, news came out that Liu Fangfei had also booked someone else.

However, the person that Liu Fangfei promised was the Hanlin who had just been appointed an official this time, a scholarly family of Qingliu aristocratic family.

Thinking about it, Liu Fangfei was full of pride. Seeing that there was no hope of marrying into the royal family, she immediately changed her goal and found a Hanlin with official career.

In this way, among the young ladies who were born in Beijing, Wen Xiu'e was the worst one to marry if Xie Ling didn't expose them.

Although the Chen family is a Hou family, it is a Luotuo Hou family without making a living, and is not rich.Besides, the cousin surnamed Chen is only a top three, even if he is the top one, he can't enter such good places as Hanlin and Ministry of Rites. Naturally, his future is not as good as the Hanlin that Liu Fangfei is looking for.

She was originally a well-known talented woman in Beijing, but in the end her marriage was not as good as the others, so it was inevitable that she would be compared with others.

After Wen Xiu'e found out about this, she lost her temper again at home, and Mrs. Wen was also quite disgraced.

A few days later, it was almost the fifteenth day of the first lunar month—the Lantern Festival.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, Beijing and China have always had the custom of holding lantern festivals.

This lantern festival will also be held for three days, starting from the day before the Lantern Festival.

Xie Ling and Wei Qiong's marriage was set on the 22nd of the first lunar month, and from the new year onwards, according to the customs of Daxuan, the two were not allowed to meet each other.

At this time, I haven't seen him for half a month.

During the Lantern Festival, the family had a happy reunion dinner and returned to their respective courtyards.

Because Bai Shu was pregnant, Xie Huaiyu didn't allow him to go to the lantern festival, so he had to hang up colored lanterns at home and play by himself.

Xie Ling was leaving Beijing soon, and he wanted to go to the Lantern Festival.Xie Huaiyu didn't stop him either, but just took some more guards to follow and told him to go out with Xie Qin.

Although Xie Qin had already settled on someone else, she still had to wait another half a year before going out.

It was Xie Ling's last lantern festival before his farewell, so he naturally wanted to go out with him.

Both of them wore brocade clothes for festivals, with thick animal hair on the neckline and cuffs.

Although it is gorgeous, the price is still moderate, and it was only after Baishu Steward that they had to enjoy all these benefits.

Sitting in the carriage and putting down the thick curtains, Xie Qin held the hand warmer and said to Xie Ling: "I remember last year at this time, the two of us also went out together, but our relationship was not as good as it is now, and we each had plans. Unexpectedly, in just one year, everyone has changed a lot.”

Xie Ling was also deeply touched, nodded and said: "At that time, my sister-in-law was still in the future, and the Lou family was in charge of the family. Everyone had no resources in their hands, and everyone was walking on thin ice. If you want to get more benefits, you have to do it in front of Lou's family." It’s embarrassing. She also likes to let us step on each other to gain power, but it will lead to intrigue in the family, and there will be no peace.”

"It's ridiculous that at that time, I still thought that being like her was the right way." Xie Ling smiled wryly and shook his head: "I never thought that being as kind as my sister-in-law can manage the family in order. Everyone In addition to being harmonious and beautiful, it can also be respected by others. Looking back, the vision is different."

"Yes." Xie Qin said: "In the future, even if she gets married, she will know how to run a family better, but it will be different."

When the car drove near the lantern festival, it couldn't move anymore.

Xie Ling and the two got out of the car and squeezed into the crowd with a few guards.

During the Lantern Festival, the streets are filled with lanterns everywhere.In order to attract customers, various stores also put up large lanterns at the entrance of the store.

Although Xie Ling and the others watched it every year, they were still curious. They still had to take a closer look at those gorgeous lanterns when they passed by.

After a while, there are parading lanterns and dragon dance teams in front of you.

The lanterns were for sacrificial offerings, and were paid for by believers.Most of them are statues of various gods, which are very gorgeous.There are many stilt walkers and jugglers ahead, which is extremely lively.

"Let's go, let's go over there and have a look." Xie Qin thought it was interesting, so she pulled Xie Ling and ran forward. The guards followed closely, for fear of losing him.

Today is the day of the Lantern Festival, and the most people come out to play on the street.The team was surrounded by people, and just a little closer, they couldn't help being pushed forward by the crowd.

Xie Ling was originally holding hands with Xie Qin, but he was separated by the crowd without paying attention.

He called Xie Qin's name a few times, but was overwhelmed by the high-pitched music. He was carried along by the team and walked for an unknown distance, until he managed to get out at a wider intersection.

At this time Xie Ling turned his head again, but he couldn't see Xie Qin and the guards at home, so he knew that he was separated from them.

If it was half a year ago, maybe Xie Ling would be very flustered.

But now, he is no longer that brother who waits to be locked at home, and he often goes out to deal with affairs alone, but he is quite calm when encountering such situations, and he is not afraid at all.

He got lost, Xie Qin and the guards followed the direction of the team to find him, walked slowly around him, and after a while they also caught up.

Thinking like this, he casually wandered the street. He didn't take a few steps, but he was patted from behind. When he turned around, he saw a man wearing a mask standing behind him, only looking at the outline. It is very familiar.

The man took a look and lifted the mask on his face...

"Wei..." Xie Ling was a little surprised, he didn't expect to meet Wei Qiong here.

But before he could call out the other party's name, he stuffed a rabbit mask into his hand and said, "Put this on, we can't see each other. If they see it for a while, we will separate."

After listening to him, Xie Ling saw Mrs. Wei and the others surrounded by guards not far away, as if they were still looking for someone.

Xie Ling immediately put on the mask, and in an instant, one hand was grabbed by Wei Qiong.Wei Qiong took his hand, and the two of them, each wearing a mask, walked quickly for a long distance, and they didn't stop until they were near the Yuelao Temple.

Although Xie Ling and Wei Qiong have already engaged in a marriage, the two have always followed the rules, and they rarely hold hands like this.

Although the weather was cold, Wei Qiong's palms were very hot. Holding Xie Ling here made him feel like an electric shock, his fingers and chest were all warm.

This month's old temple is a famous place in Beijing, and today's incense is flourishing.

Wei Qiong went to ask for a red thread and tied it between the little fingers of the two of them, saying: "Although the two of us have already made an appointment, it's not like ordinary people. It's all because of what my parents said. Not quite true, but there's no harm in doing it."

Xie Ling was ironing in his heart, and because of the mask, he was a little bolder, and gently put his hand in Wei Qiong's.

Wei Qiong twitched her fingers. Although she was wearing a mask, her exposed ears were red.

He put his fingers back and held Xie Ling's fingertips, and the two of them clasped their fingers together, getting closer to each other.

The two held hands and walked back slowly.

Wei Qiong took Xie Ling to taste the Jiuniang Yuanxiao all the way, and bought a rabbit lantern...

After a long time, the two of them saw Xie Qin who was looking for him from afar.

Xie Ling said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, if I don't go back, my brother will take my skin off."

Thinking of Xie Huaiyu's expression, Wei Qiong was also a little apprehensive, and said, "Then let's not live today, and see you in a few days..."

As he spoke, he untied the red thread from his hand and tied it on Xie Ling's hand.

Xie Ling waved his hands reluctantly and said, "Goodbye..."

Wei Qiong took a few steps back and stood far away by the side of the road.Watching Xie Ling turn around and go to Xie Qin's place, and reunited with them.

Seeing that Xie Ling disappeared, Xie Qin wasn't worried at all.There are many people at this Lantern Festival, and it is common for people to get lost for a while, and they can be found after a while.

It's just that this time he came all the way with those guards and searched for a long time, but he didn't see any trace of Xie Ling at all.

Countless thoughts flashed through Xie Qin's mind, remembering that there were also traffickers in Beijing who abducted and sold children, who took advantage of these bustling lights to take people away, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

But Xie Ling is also in his double tenth year, even the trafficker, he probably wouldn't kidnap a brother at this age.

While comforting himself, he became more and more anxious. Fortunately, before he was about to send someone back to report to his elder brother, Xie Ling came out by himself.

Seeing Xie Ling, Xie Qin was furious.

He wore a rabbit mask on his head and a rabbit lamp in his hand, no wonder people couldn't find it.

If he bought it himself, that's fine, look closely at his little finger, there is still a piece of red thread wrapped around it, it looks like he got it from Yuelao Temple.

No one would ask for such things by themselves, Xie Ling must have gone to meet that Mr. Wei just now!

Xie Qin scolded that Wei Qiong several times in her heart, a dog man, took Xie Ling away, and the two of them went to have fun, but told him to be here alone in fear, and even sprinkle dog food when he came back.

Seeing that Xie Qin was angry, Xie Ling was also quite embarrassed, so she carefully coaxed him from the sidelines.

Later, he promised himself that before he left, he would give Xie Qin a set of good Nanzhu noodles.

Xie Qin finally calmed down, and promised not to tell Xie Huaiyu about this matter.

It's just that Xie Ling thought very well, but after returning home, he still met Xie Huaiyu.

Xie Huaiyu stopped the two of them to ask, although they didn't say anything, but when they saw the red rope in Xie Ling's hand, Xie Huaiyu raised his eyebrows, and he knew it clearly.

It's just that it's not that he and Bai Shu haven't done such things before, but at this time they won't say anything to Xie Ling about it, so they just turned a blind eye and let it go.

After everyone had left, Bai Shu laughed at him and said, "Look at Xie Ling, I'm so frightened by you now that I dare not speak up when I meet Wei Qiong."

"Cough cough." Xie Huaiyu coughed twice and said, "I'm going to get married in a few days. See each other every day in the future, what can't wait? I'm afraid the two of them will get tired of seeing each other by then. "

"Then I see you every day, are you bored?" Bai Shu asked.

"You are different!" Xie Huaiyu said, then shook Bai Shu's hand and said, "If we can be like today, even if we look at it for hundreds of years, we won't get tired of it."

·

A week later, it was the day when Xie Ling officially got married.

Although it was only the third marriage, but because he married the elder brother of the Xie family, the Wei family also had a big banquet with fifty or sixty tables.

It can be said that Xie Ling married Wei Qiong, which was something that many people in Beijing could not have imagined.

If originally, Wei Qiong stayed in Beijing as an official, the couple would be considered a good match, but now it is the Xie family who actually married.

On the 22nd of the first lunar month, the weather was fine.

It was just past [-] o'clock, but Xie Ling was already called up by the maids to wash up.

At this time, the sky was not fully bright yet, and the house was lit with bright candles.

Xie Ling's complexion was snow-white, his eyes were full of joy, and he was sitting in front of the dressing table to let the servant girl comb his hair.

"Master Ling, can you see if this is okay?" the maid who combed her hair asked.

Xie Ling looked at the person in the mirror, his hair was neatly combed.There are several golden pearl hairpins on the left and right, which are very luxurious.

"This jade rabbit comb, please help me add it too." Xie Ling said, pointing to the white giant clam comb in the jewelry box.

"Would this not match your wedding dress today?" the maid asked after hesitating for a while.

Xie Ling's wedding dress was made of big red gold silk double magpies, which was very gorgeous, but this comb looked a little more plain.

"It doesn't matter." Xie Ling said, "I like this comb, and I want to wear it to get married."

The maid nodded yes, thought for a while, and inserted the Jade Rabbit comb on the back of Xie Ling's head, a little below the bun.Although not very eye-catching, it is still harmonious.

"It's so good." Xie Ling took a look in the mirror and was very satisfied.

This servant girl is indeed a person who is very good at combing and dressing up. With such a design, there is only a jade rabbit hidden in her hair, surrounded by a circle of pearl hairpins, which is quite interesting.

After Xie Ling combed her hair, she got up and put on the wedding dress.

The clothes are gorgeous and beautiful, which also complements his appearance.The maid who made up his makeup swept some pink tan on both sides of his cheeks, and it flew up obliquely to the tip of his eyebrows, looking like he was slightly drunk, it was the most popular drunken makeup in Beijing recently.

In this way, Xie Ling was all dressed properly.

He already has eight points of appearance, but now that he has modified it, he has a very good appearance.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the maids blew out the candles, opened the door and said, "Master Ling, the auspicious time has come, you just wait for the Wei family to come and pick you up.

Xie Ling was sitting by the bed at this moment, waiting shyly for someone to come.

The author has something to say: Double-standard Xie Huaiyu, you almost went to the last step before getting married and ate up all the Atractylodes macrocephala!
