Not very accurate, but [-]% of the hits.

Ling Yuxuan is the son of the prime minister, and he is still a senior official of the third rank, so he naturally has a noble fate.Thinking that after coming to him, he will have a prosperous official career and will be an extremely popular minister, so Hongyun Daoist said that he is unspeakably valuable.Although he Kemu is not good, it has nothing to do with this marriage; he Wang family, which is very good.

Xiao Wenqing's fate was bad when she was young. Although Taoist Hongyun said that she would die this year, she could be reincarnated when she met a noble person.Hasn't she already met such a noble person as Ling Yuxuan?In the future, she will flourish in her mother's family and Xinghu's family, and her husband is more expensive than her husband, and she can live with Ling Yuxuan, who is compatible with her, until the house is full of old children and grandchildren.

The woman agreed to the man's marriage proposal, and Ling Yuxuan immediately stood up vigorously, straightened his clothes, knelt down to Mrs. Xiao, and said loudly: "My son-in-law, Ling Yuxuan, pays respects to his mother-in-law." After speaking, he bowed three times and nine times.

Mrs. Xiao said cheerfully: "My son-in-law, get up quickly." This man is her daughter's favorite man!

Due to the long distance, he was going to All of them were made of gold and silver, and the wine, fruit cakes, chicken, duck and fish meat were urgently purchased by Guizhi County on the commission of the Ling family and his son.

Mrs. Xiao is very reluctant to get her daughter married soon, but firstly, her daughter is not young, and if she delays, she will become an old girl. The "noble man" gave her orders to scare her, so she decided to let her daughter marry a noble man who can protect her daughter earlier, so she nodded and asked, "Master Zhixian, Daoist Hongyun, is August a good day to get married?"

Daoist Hongyun made a salute and said, "Mrs. Xiao, I have read the Chinese calendar, August 26th and August [-]th are easy to marry."

Mrs. Xiao thought for a while and asked Ling Yuxuan, "Son-in-law, how is August 26?" She worried that time was too tight and Ling Yuxuan would not be able to make it.

"Mother-in-law decides." Ling Yuxuan cupped his hands.Eighteen and 26 are only eight days apart.

"Then August 26th." Mrs. Xiao said.
