The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 233: From My Brother (3)
After breakfast, Qingyang told Qingshu that he wanted to go shopping in the market, because he heard people say that there are tricksters coming to the town recently, which are very beautiful.He wanted to take Luo Xiaorong to watch it with him.

Qing Shu agreed, but also explained a lot of precautions, and quickly arranged for the entourage to come out.There is one servant girl, one guard from Luofu, one Xiaojuan from his own house, one Ding Jiabao and three other strong men.

How can there be no silver when going out, Qingshu stuffed broken silver and some copper plates into the purses of Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong, asked Xiaojuan to bring a bag of money, and gave Ding Jiabao ten taels of silver.Then Qing Shu personally sent them out.Unexpectedly, Zhou Boyan's two guards were waiting outside, saying that Zhou Boyan sent them out to protect the two young masters.

Qing Shu didn't refuse, watched them walk away, and then returned to the inner courtyard.She entered the house with her front foot, and Su's mother rushed over with her back foot.

Su's mother entered the door with a happy face, smiling from ear to ear, "I've seen Miss."

Qing Shu raised her eyebrows, "I'm so happy, is this something good?"

Mother Su became more and more happy, "Miss, I really made you talk, this old slave has met a happy event, a big happy event, ha ha... Yuan He's marriage is on the horizon."

Qing Shu's eyes brightened, "Really, which family's girl is it?"

"Miss, I met Miss Aqin. She looks good, capable, straight-tempered, and has no bad intentions. Oops, I got a letter last night. I was so happy that I couldn't sleep all night." Su Mama said. , I started to enjoy myself, and after a while, I came back to my senses, and said in a low voice, "Yuanhe himself fell in love with it, so the old slave hastened to send a matchmaker to propose marriage!"

Qing Shu followed with a smile, "Happy event, great event. Mother Su, what are you waiting for, hurry up and invite Mrs. Cheng."

Mother Su was overjoyed, "Yes, yes, I invite Mrs. Cheng, I will invite you right away." While talking, she walked out in a hurry.

Xiaoyu covered her mouth and smiled, "Mama Su is so happy that she almost walks without touching the ground."

Qingshu glanced at Xiaoyu, "My Xiaoyu is also a big girl, I don't know which lucky one will marry my Xiaoyu away."

Xiao Yu blushed, stomped her feet shyly, and went out.

Qing Shu looked at Ling Lan with a smirk, Ling Lan realized something was wrong, and ran out with a blushing face.

Qing Shu felt bored, and ran away shyly before this was even funny.

Besides, Mrs. Cheng, as soon as she heard the invitation from the ancient mansion, she immediately put down what she was doing and came here.After half an hour, she left the ancient mansion, and immediately let Cheng Yaren drive the car, and the husband and wife went to Xiaogujia Village.

Miss Aqin, that is, Chen Qin was picking green beans in the vegetable garden. When she heard the noise, she came out of the vegetable garden and saw the carriage parked in front of the door and the woman standing outside the fence. Does the sister-in-law want to ask for directions, or drink water?"

Mrs. Cheng took a few glances and asked with a smile, "Is it Miss Aqin?"

Ah Qin was puzzled, "Yes, this sister-in-law knows me?"

Mrs. Cheng shook her head, "Miss Aqin, are your parents at home?"

Aqin replied, "No, my father is in the field, and my mother has gone to my uncle's house. If this sister-in-law needs to find my parents, I can call them back."

Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, girl, go and come back quickly, we will wait outside."

Aqin agreed, and first invited Mrs. Cheng to sit in the yard, and then invited the neighbor's aunt to help accompany the guests, and went to call someone by herself.

Not long after, Ah Qin's mother came back, and Mrs. Cheng explained her purpose.Ah Qin's mother listened, and sent out the woman next to her who was listening with her ears stretched out to invite her eldest brother and sister-in-law, that is, Gu Dashu and his wife.

Not long after, Aqin's parents, Gu Dashu and his wife Chen Shi all arrived.Ah Qin, who didn't know why, was taken away by the aunt next door.In less than half an hour, the Chen family sent away Cheng Niangzi, the matchmaker, with joy on their faces.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Cheng went to the ancient mansion to answer.The Chen family came down to discuss the matter of marriage, and didn't make any special requirements, only saying that everything should be done according to the rules.This rule refers to the six ceremonies involved in marriage, namely Nacai, Asking Names, Najib, Nazheng, Asking for a Date, and Greeting in person.

Nacai, that is, the man invites a matchmaker to the woman's home to propose marriage.If the woman's family agrees to discuss marriage, the man's family will formally propose to the woman's family.When proposing formally, live geese must be brought as a gift, so that people accept the meaning of adoption.

Only now is the first acceptance, the woman's family has agreed to propose marriage, and the next thing is to wait for the man's family to bring live geese to propose marriage.Of course, not everyone can hunt live geese. Except for the rich and the noble, they must use live geese. In many places, many people use other live geese as substitutes. Ordinary people generally have the ability to use rabbits, geese, fish, etc. instead. The ability is directly skipped and everything is kept simple.

When Su's mother was happily discussing with Mrs. Cheng about the gifts to be prepared for the proposal, Qingshu got up and went out without saying a word.Qingshu said that she wanted Gu Yuanhe to marry a lady in a good manner, so she naturally had to work hard to do her best.She came to the front and beckoned Xiao Yu to call someone.

Not long after, the chief guard followed Xiaoyu, followed by Gu Shitou.

Qingshu didn't express any opinion on Gu Shitou's uninvited visit, but solemnly bowed to the chief guard, "Little girl has something to ask, I wonder if you can agree?"

The head of the guard took two steps back and returned the salute, "Miss Gu, if you have something to do, just tell me."

Gu Shitou strained his ears to listen.

Qingshu said bluntly, "I heard that the lord has practiced the technique of piercing through Yang with a hundred steps. Forgive me for taking the liberty, I beg you to catch a live goose and bring it back."

The chief guard wondered, "What's the use of Miss Gu wanting to live a wild goose?"

Gu Shitou interjected excitedly, "Miss wants a live goose, it's simple, when the young master's injury is healed, I will call and send it to Miss." He felt incredible, Miss Gu was clearly reminding his family The young master hurried to the door to propose marriage, isn't it, that's great.

Qing Shu twitched the corners of her mouth, ignored him, and explained to the chief guard, "The son of the housekeeper is discussing marriage recently, and he needs to live a wild goose as a gift. I wonder if my lord can make it happen?"

After hearing this, Gu Shitou realized that he had made a mistake, and immediately became wilted.

The chief guard agreed without any hesitation, and reported to Zhou Boyan after returning, and asked Zhou Boyan when he should go.

Zhou Boyan spoke without thinking, and asked the head of the guard to take two people with him and come back tomorrow after hunting two live geese.Qingshu wants one, he wants to give two, he attaches great importance to it.The live wild geese that Na adopted could not be killed, and if the woman picked them up, they would also have to be released.

In the afternoon, when Gu Yuanhe closed the shop and came back, he heard people congratulating him from time to time when he entered the door. He was very embarrassed and hurriedly avoided.

Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong had watched juggling, visited a few shops, then went to play in their own shop, and did not come back with Gu Yuanhe until the shop was closed.The two of them ran to Qingshu with some gadgets they bought, and showed them to Qingshu one by one.At the last moment, Qingyang asked Luo Xiaorong to stay outside, pulled Qingshu into the room by himself, and took out his blue brocade handkerchief with a mysterious face, opened it, and put something light yellow into Qingshu's hand, "Sister, it's for you."
