Seeing the Fu family convoy, Li Xinheng hurried to Yan Funing."Miss, the young master is here to propose marriage. There are several cars coming. Please go and take a look." "Has the son-in-law really come to propose marriage?" Caiyu asked. "How could it be false?" Li Xinheng asked anxiously, "Go and have a look, there are a lot of people gathered at the gate of the mansion right now." Caiyu supported Yan Funing and said, "Miss, let's go take a look." Yan Funing nodded and walked forward. "Caiyu, I suddenly can't remember when Lingxian got married, did the Fu family go to the Yan family to propose marriage?" "Of course there was an engagement. At that time, the Fu family's butler and Fu Minghe went to the Yan family to propose. The Fu family also gave double the betrothal gifts to the two newlyweds." "So Fu Ciyi didn't go to the Yan family?" "The uncle didn't show up. The lady wanted to marry Fu Minghe at that time, so naturally she has no impression of whether the uncle showed up or not." "So that's what it is."
Yan Funing's lips curved up. At that time, Fu Ciyi did not go to the Yan family to propose marriage. Does this mean that he was unwilling to marry Yan Haitang? Thinking of this, my steps became much lighter. When they walked around the screen wall, they found that there were indeed many people gathered at the gate of the mansion. After walking a few steps outside, they found that several carriages of the Fu family were lined up at the gate, and the servants of the Yan family and the Fu family were carrying the betrothal gifts out of the carriages. Yan Funing glanced at Fu Ciyi from a distance. I saw that the big bag on his head had disappeared, and he was instructing people to lift it slowly and put it down gently in a high-spirited manner. Those who followed him to the Yan family included Fu Beimo, Meng Li, the housekeeper Yu Liang, and Jiang He, Hu Hai. In addition, there is Pang Gaozhuo. His face was filled with a smile that was even happier than when he got married, and he was talking to Fu Ciyi. Yan Funing was startled. When did the relationship between these two become so good? Suddenly, someone in the crowd pointed at her and said loudly: "That is Miss Yan, she will be the bride in a few days." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at him. A little girl shouted: "I want to see the bride, I want to see the bride." Someone else said: "On the wedding day, the bride was sitting in the sedan chair with her head covered. We couldn't see her. Let's take a closer look now." Yan Funing couldn't help feeling shy. She smiled at the people and then turned around and went back to her house. Fu Ciyi turned his head and saw the hem of her skirt flash past the screen wall. "dragon……" After uttering just one word, Pang Gaozhuo quickly changed the topic: "Ci Yi, I'll help you watch this, you go meet Miss Yan first." Fu Ciyi raised a finger to warn him.
Pang Gaozhuo smiled and apologized in a low voice, then raised his hand and said, "Fu Ciyi, Master Fu, please." "Ah." Fu Ciyi then took a step forward. After walking around the screen wall and taking a few steps, I saw Yan Funing waiting by the side. "Waiting for me?" Yan Funing raised her eyes to look at him: "I guess so. I asked you to come and try on the wedding gown, but you didn't come for half a month. I don't know if you really want to marry me, but you didn't even come to try on the wedding gown." "I've been busy these days and haven't had time to come." Fu Ciyi leveled his eyes with hers, "Can I try it on in time today?" Yan Funing did not answer. Caiyu smiled and said, "Sir, of course it's in time." Yan Funing turned her head and told Li Xinheng, "Take Master Fu to the tailor shop." "Yes, Miss." Li Xinheng agreed and led Fu Ciyi away. Seeing them go away, Yan Funing followed the team carrying the betrothal gifts to the front hall. Boxes of betrothal gifts were carried in, and soon the hall was almost filled with boxes tied with large red satin flowers. Very joyful. The old Duke was not satisfied, and personally directed his servants to put the betrothal gift boxes in order. "Just like marching in a battle, place them all in place carefully, aligning every row and column with the same spacing in between." The servants nodded in agreement and began to move the boxes swiftly in the direction indicated by the old Duke, squinting their eyes to aim at the line. "Well, just put it like this." The old Duke was satisfied and put his hands on his hips. Seeing this, Yan Funing couldn't help but joke, "Grandfather, didn't go to fight geese and walk the dog today?" The old Duke smiled and said, "I won't go today. My grandson-in-law is here to propose marriage, so I have to stay in the mansion." He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Girl, is the betrothal gift too little? If you think it's too little, I won't marry you." "They are all full. There are quite a lot." Yan Funing said. The old Duke sighed: "The little girl has grown up, and I can't keep her anymore." Yan Funing held her grandfather's arm and said, "Master Fu said that he would come back to live with me every month. I'm just afraid that grandpa will be annoyed with us by then." "Your grandfather does find many people annoying, except the little girl. As for the boy surnamed Fu, I will just try my best not to bother him." Yan Funing smiled playfully: "Thank you, Grandfather!" Yan Cheng and Hong Qingyi also came to the front hall. Seeing the betrothal gifts arranged in an orderly manner, the couple looked at each other and both knew that such arrangement was the work of their father. It was rare for him to take care of his grandchildren's marriages, so the couple walked to the old Duke's side.
"Thank you father!" "What are you thanking me for?" The old Duke tilted his beard, "The little girl is my precious granddaughter." He has to worry about her marriage. Hong Qingyi smiled gently, turned her head and asked Yan Funing: "Where is Ci Yi?" "Mother, he went to the tailor's shop to try on his wedding gown." Hong Qingyi said, "Okay, then I'll go over and take a look, and tell the tailor by the way." Yan Cheng also said, "I'll go there too. I have something to say to Ci Yi. I'll have to trouble my father here." "Let's go, let's go." The old Duke waved his hand. The moment Yan Cheng and his wife turned around, Fu Beimo and Meng Li happened to come in carrying the betrothal gifts. "Uncle Yan, Aunt Yan." Fu Beimo called her obediently. "Bei Mo is just sweet-talking." Hong Qingyi said, "You've worked hard today, you should eat and drink more at home." "Okay, Aunt Yan." After shouting, they carried the betrothal gifts into the hall and saw boxes of betrothal gifts arranged in a very regular pattern... Fu Beimo smiled and called out, "Grandfather Yan, this is a formation." "You are really good, kid!" The old Duke was surprised. "Are you really the stupid kid from the Fu family?" "It's me. I'm the stupid one." Without the old duke's guidance, Fu Beimo put the box where it should be. Seeing this, the old Duke nodded repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad." The Fu family in Ling County was able to produce Fu Ciyi, a top scholar, and also a talented silly boy like this one. Wow, that's really great. Yan Funing only knew that the betrothal gift boxes in front of her were all neatly arranged, but she couldn't see any formation. I looked left and right, but still couldn't see any clues. She simply stopped thinking about it. Seeing more betrothal gifts being carried in from behind, she asked, "Bei Mo, why are there so many?" Fu Beimo said: "In the past half month, my brother has been preparing the betrothal gifts." The Yan family is a duke's mansion. If the Fu family offers too little as a betrothal gift, it would seem like an inappropriate match. Yan Funing nodded, muttering to herself that it was no wonder that he had seldom met her in the past half month. The tailor shop at this moment. Fu Ciyi put on his wedding gown with the help of Yan's servants.
"Yes, it fits very well." Hong Qingyi asked Yan Cheng, "What do you think, my husband?" Yan Cheng nodded: "Yeah, not bad." Hong Qingyi then instructed the tailors: "Speed up the embroidery on the wedding gowns these days, and don't forget to make it delicate and exquisite." (End of this chapter)
