A year later, after Xi Daomao had served his cousin, the home of Xi's mother and daughter welcomed an unexpected and reasonable guest—Yang Zhi.

Yangzhi came to visit Xi Daomao for the third time, and lived in Juzhang County, Kuaiji County for more than a month.Of course, Xi Daomao would not let him live in his own house when his name was not determined, Yang Zhi rented another house of another high-ranking family. Anyway, at this time, the family of the high-level family has been carefully sorted out, and they are all relatives.

"Yang Taishou has been in Juzhang for a long time, is Huaiyin okay?" Xi Daomao euphemistically reminded.

"Winter in the north is tough, Daqin will not attack Huaiyin when people are exhausted." Yang Zhi explained.As for routine government affairs, they are handled by their own subordinates.At this time, people admire the demeanor of celebrities, and their demands on officials are high and low.High requires you to be outstanding and solve some difficult problems.The low point is that as long as you can solve the problem, it doesn't matter if your character is almost irrelevant, let alone if you just go to the south in winter to ask for your wife.Entering the mountains and forests in summer, soaking in hot springs in winter, without losing government affairs, is exactly what people admire!

Yang straightened his beard and said with a smile: "But what Xi Niangzi said is right. As a prefect, you should not stay away from the ruling place for too long. Meng Hua is also going back. Before going back, I have one more thing to explain to Xi Niangzi."

Xi Daomao was silent.

"My heart, Xi Niangzi knows all about it. There are only three things. If Xi Niangzi has no intention of favoring her, Meng Hua shouldn't bother her." Yang Zhi looked at Xi Daomao expectantly. He has been able to come to Juzhang County three times in person, which has already shown his sincerity.

Still silent, after a long silence, Xi Daomao sighed quietly: "I want to think about it. Tomorrow, I will go to Shiliting to see you off."

In the evening, Tuen took a plate of sweet cakes to Xi Daomao's room to talk. Since her reputation as a good cook spread, pastries have almost become her standard.Thun also likes to bring exquisite pastries wherever he goes, the deliciousness can’t be let down~

"Mum, it's getting dark, why don't you light up the lights?" Tuen asked, standing at the door.

"Huh? Oh! I didn't realize that it got dark too early in this winter." Xi Daomao was pulled out of his thoughts by Tu En, and hurriedly called someone to light the lamp.

The maidservants filed in and out, holding lamps, adding charcoal basins, and serving tea, and the sweet cakes brought by Thun were also placed on the small table.

"Mum, don't be too busy, let's talk. It's great to just lie on the bed, drink hot tea, and eat snacks." As he said, Thun had already stuffed himself into the silk quilt, moaning comfortably /Chants out.

"You will enjoy it." Xi Daomao followed her example, hiding under the quilt and only showing his hands.

Tun's eyes were sharp, and he took out a jade pendant from the desk next to the couch. Xi Daomao was awakened just now, and he covered the jade pendant with a book thinking that there was no trace.

This is a semicircular jade pendant of mutton fat jade, and it can be seen that it has another half.

"Did my mother agree to Yang Taishou's marriage proposal?"

"No, of course not. He insisted on keeping this, and I will return it to him when I see him off tomorrow." Xi Daomao said in a panic.

"It's all taken away, what's the return." Tu En said nonchalantly: "Mother, my daughter understands you, but you don't understand yourself. If you don't care about the prefect Yang, why would you let him disturb you for more than a month. Last time I said However, I don't care about my mother getting married again, I just hope you can be happy, you should know."

"My mother knows your filial piety. But, whether you marry or not, you are always the most important." Xi Daomao knew that his daughter was not an ignorant urchin, so he explained the considerations of marriage to Tuen in detail.

"Yang Taishou is honest and trustworthy, and his family background, talent and learning are all outstanding. If you only talk about official rank, he is better than your father. Therefore, if he is such a good candidate, even if he marries another aristocratic daughter, princess, or princess Also, how could you think of me?"

"Because of Xi Jiabu?"

"My son is sharp." Xi Daomao sighed quietly, "but these family fortunes are to be left to you. Even if I want to remarry, I have to wait until you meet a lover and have a lifelong trust. I can't take you to a strange place. If you start over again, you will be wronged. I don’t feel worried about leaving you in the Xi’s family. If the eldest brother is here, it’s natural. Today’s Xi’s family... don’t worry about it.”

"You don't need to think about me, I said it last time." Thun confessed again, with her ability, is she afraid that she will not be able to live a good life?

Tuen understands better that when a person wants to do something in his heart, he will always subconsciously make excuses, and the bad things he can say are waiting for others to refute and expect others to agree with the answer in her heart.If Xi Daomao really has no intention of remarrying, it is enough to say that it is inappropriate, talk about pros and cons, and weigh gains and losses.

"Stupid child, how could I not consider you." At this age, it doesn't matter whether you marry or not, the most important thing is you.

"Grandmother, don't think about this. Do you admire the prefect Yang? If you like it, marry it. Don't think about anyone, don't think about the Xi family, don't think about your daughter. If after careful consideration, only interests are maintained, then don't marry. My daughter can afford you!"

Xi Daomao chuckled, "Speaking of children!" But he was very ironic in his heart. If you have a child like this, what difference does it make between marrying and not marrying?

The current situation of the Xi family, the persecution of Princess Yuyao, the situation of the daughter, the thoughts of the cousin, the discussions of the world... too many things are circling in Xi Daomao's mind.

Early the next morning, Xi Daomao took Tu En to Shiliting along with the ox cart.The servants had already set up barriers and prepared drinks, waiting for the masters to say goodbye.

Thun was very winking, said a few words about a good journey, and then jumped into the bullock cart, leaving a distance, leaving room for the two of them.

Xi Daomao took out the jade pendant, and Yang Zhi knew what it meant.

Yang Zhi sighed softly: "It's a pity that I don't have a chance with Xi Niangzi."

After finishing speaking, drink the wine, take the jade pendant, and set off.

Xi Daomao suddenly asked: "You never asked me if I refused to marry because of the respect of the prince."

"It's hard to get rid of the water, and the past can't be turned back. I know Xi Niangzi, but Xi Niangzi doesn't know it." Yang Zhi laughed at himself, "I can't let Xi Niangzi agree to marry. Yes or no?"

Xi Daomao raised his head fiercely, and with courage from nowhere, he spoke quickly: "Even if I marry, I will leave all my property to my daughter. En is the jewel in my palm, and no one can wrong her!"

Yang Zhi's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Of course, I'm not a greedy person. I'm also happy about the reputation of Mu Huan, who would treat such a daughter badly?"

"I want to have all the six rituals."

"Dare you not to be careful? Meng Hua will treat each other with courtesy."

Treat each other with courtesy, that's enough.It is enough not to suspect me of the gossip and gossip of worldly fools, but willing to treat my daughter kindly.

Xi Daomao took the jade pendant, put it on his waist, and said with a light smile, "Come and propose marriage before spring begins. My marriage is decided by my uncle."

"Yes, I will." Yang Zhi laughed loudly, stroked the jade pendant on his robe, his eyes were incredibly bright.Before leaving, Yang Zhi bowed deeply to Xi Daomao and performed the etiquette of her husband in advance.Xi Daomao also bowed to give blessings, and the two bowed to each other. Their marriage was voluntary, joyful, in line with etiquette, and full of expectations.

Thun saw it from a distance on the bullock cart, and smiled knowingly. The eldest niece has a lifelong trust, and it is her heartfelt choice. Thinking about it makes people happy!

Yang Zhi was very fast, almost as soon as he arrived in Huaiyin, he immediately sent envoys to propose marriage.The big media hired by Yang Zhi is also very famous, they are Wu Chenghou, Zhou Lin, the prefect of Dongyang, and the Zhou of Thun's great aunt Zhou.The Zhou family in Runan, speaking of it, is a large family with a family tree several feet thick, famous scholars and officials for many generations.

Zhou Lin, the Marquis of Wucheng, was a matchmaker, and she was dignified and dignified to do Na Cai and asked about names. Because Xi Min believed in Taoism, when Naji was in Najib, Yang Zhi specially invited the masters of the Heavenly Master to make fortune-telling, and the result was naturally good luck. prosperous.At the time of Nazheng, besides Zhou Lin, the big matchmaker, Yang Zhi's eldest son, Yang Qing, also came with the fleet to express his respect for his unmarried mother.

Looking at the boat full of betrothal gifts, even Tun, who married his niece and daughter, couldn't make a mistake, let alone the Xi family who hoped that their younger sister/sister/aunt would find a good home.

Yang Zhi is fast, but not perfunctory, and follows the etiquette in every step, which makes Xi's family very satisfied.The wedding of the two is scheduled for February and March, and the time is already tight.It stands to reason that the bride-to-be should stay in the room and embroider something for the groom to express her feelings; or inquire about the situation at the groom's home to prepare for her future married life.

But Xi Daomao did not, all her mind was on Tuen, and she handed over all the affairs such as the water spinning wheel to Tuen, as well as the fields, villages, and shops she bought before. Xi Daomao wished to put everything she knew into it. daughter's head.

Seeing someone come to see him and talk about various industrial problems, Thun was very annoyed.

"Are you really going to leave everything to me?" Thun looked at Xi Daomao as if he had stolen his house. He had given all his property to himself. What about her dowry?

"Is it still a joke?" Xi Daomao glanced at her, knowing what his daughter wanted to say. "When I married into the Wang family, I already had a dowry; when I ended my marriage, the Wang family also gave me a lot of compensation; there was also a boatload of betrothal gifts from Meng Hua, which was already worth ten miles of red dowry."

"Then I'll add makeup to my mother. This is my wish, and my mother can't refuse!" Thun didn't say any more that you earned the family business, so you can't give it all to me and other nonsense.Xi Daomao is still worrying about whether he should bring Tuen to Huaiyin County or stay in Xi's house. If Tuen delays, he will be born.

In order to let Xi Daomao prepare for his marriage with peace of mind, and to free himself from the tedious work of cleaning up the property, Tuen took the initiative to take over the work of sorting out the dowry.

As Xi Daomao said, her previous dowry, Wang's compensation, and Yang Zhi's dowry already accounted for a large part of it, and there were still a steady stream of people adding makeup and giving gifts.

Needless to say, the Xi family members all have to add makeup, so it doesn’t matter how much you have, what matters is your heart.Even when the Wang family heard that she was going to remarry, they also sent many precious gifts in the name of aunt Xi Rui.

When Yang Zhiqin greeted her, five boats of dowry followed behind the welcoming team.It is not a small boat for carrying people, but a really tall and capable cargo ship.When disembarking at the Huaiyin Wharf, it took three days just to carry the dowry, which filled a five-entry courtyard in Huaiyin.

Thun naturally wanted to follow her to see her off. Hearing the envious comments from others, he stood tall.This is my eldest niece getting married!

When putting on makeup, it goes without saying what field cloth, gold, silver and jewelry are.The most striking thing is a few sets of white porcelain utensils. Others have one or two pieces that are enough to hold a banquet to appreciate, but here are so many that they can be used as daily utensils.It is almost another version of the pigs in Shi Chong's family who used gold troughs, which is enviable.The guests attending the wedding banquet were also fortunate to have seen the famous Xijia delicacies. I heard that the dim sum for today's wedding banquet was made by chef Xijia.If it wasn't for the fear of stealing the Yang's limelight, the guests wished that all the dishes were cooked by the chef of the Xi family.

What is even more jaw-dropping is that Xi Daomao's dowry also included [-] cattle and [-] war horses.I don't know how these living creatures were transported to Huaiyin, avoiding the sight of everyone.

Yangzhi guards Huaiyin, and really confronts Daqin. These cattle and war horses, let farmers, mulberry, army, Fuzheng, and Anmin are all ready, just like timely rain.

If there were people who slandered Yang for marrying a second marriage before, it would be really dizzy.Now this kind of saying has disappeared, this is not a wife, this is a golden baby!

Tu En once again proudly raised his chest, and then Hong Hong trotted over to pass the message: "The lady asked, where did the young lady collect these dowry?" White porcelain and war horses, these are things that money can't buy!

It's broken, I just cared about making my eldest niece marry well, and forgot the source of the dowry, so it's hard to explain!
