Chapter 1111: Depart for Linhe Prefecture
Chapter 1111 Departure to Linhe Mansion
"Yuan Yuan is very good-looking and lovable. Don't worry about your big face. When you get older, your face will become smaller." Gu Jinli said with a smile.
After hearing this, Shang Yuanyuan felt better, and said worriedly: "Sister Xiaoyu, I won't cause you any trouble, right? That is General Xiao Guo. If he is angry, will he anger you and Brother Sanlang?"New novel chapters are published on
Shang Yuanyuan blamed himself. He was too impulsive and should not have taken action.
Gu Jinli said: "No, General Xiao Guo is not a stingy person. He is very careless. I think he will forget this matter soon. If you don't go to the front yard and let him see it, he will remember it."
After hearing this, Shang Yuanyuan felt relieved and nodded: "Okay, Yuanyuan will stay here with Sister Xiaoyu."
It is the right time, and it is an auspicious time for the Qin family to send betrothal gifts to the Gu family.
Zong's matchmaker put on a grand make-up, took the Qin family's ancestors and grandson, and carried boxes of engagement gifts covered with red silk cloth to the Gu family.
Zong's matchmaker used ancient rituals, so the whole engagement ceremony started before leaving the Qin family's gate. By the time they entered the Gu's family's gate, half an hour had passed.
By the time the red silk was unveiled and the engagement ceremony was held, more than half an hour had passed.
However, although the ancient ceremony was complicated, everyone felt that it was worth the wait, because the engagement gift that Qin Sanlang gave to Gu Jinli was very beautiful. Others only gave three pieces of hair, face, and jewelry as their engagement gifts, but he gave nine pieces. I gave him two kinds, one with gold head and one with pearl head, which symbolizes the happiness of long-term pairing.
Two kinds of eighteen sets of engagement gifts were given out, and everyone present was shocked. They found a treasure. They didn't expect that Sanlang was so rich!
Seeing these betrothal gifts, everyone wanted to bring their daughters and grandchildren to Qin Sanlang as concubines.
Thinking of Gu Jinli's fierceness, he reluctantly gave up the idea.
Mrs. Chen drooled as she stared at the eighteen-toned noodle. She was so rich. Not only did she give him gold noodle, but she also gave her pearl noodle. If one of these big pearls could be sold, they would fetch at least dozens of taels of silver.
With this thought, Ms. Chen's hands immediately felt itchy and she couldn't help but want to grab the big pearl on her head, but Gu Dagui slapped her back.
In addition to these proper engagement gifts, the Qin family also sent a congratulatory gift from Mrs. Guo, which turned out to be a pair of small jade Ruyi.
Gu Jinli felt that he could no longer hold it in, but fortunately, after the matchmaker asked them to bow to each other, he finally shouted "It's done", and this complicated and embarrassing engagement ceremony was completed.
Gu Jinli couldn't stay longer, Zong's matchmaker asked Erqing to help her back to the room.
On this day, the Gu family was very lively because of the arrival of General Xiao Guo and Qin Sanlang's eighteen sets of masks. The guests drank and ate until the evening.
Gu Jinli was already exhausted. He had eaten early, took a shower, and went to bed to sleep.
But she was still wearing the light red dress from today. She knew that Qin Sanlang liked this dress and knew that he would definitely come tonight, so she wore it specially.
She guessed right. In the middle of the night, after a busy day, Qin Sanlang came to see her after taking a bath. When he saw that she was wearing a light red dress during the day, his eyes lit up and he said: "It looks good."
He asked again: "Did you wear it specially for me?"
Just as he knows that she likes to wear dark robes, he always wears dark robes when he comes to see her, so that she can be more happy when she sees him.
Gu Jinli shook his head: "That's wrong. I think this dress looks good. I'm wearing it for myself. Don't be too sentimental."
How could Qin Sanlang believe it? He held her face, murmured a lie, then lowered his head and kissed her.
He was very happy today, even kissing her became eager and greedy.
Gu Jinli let him kiss her, raised her hands to hug his waist, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "We are finally officially engaged, and we will get married soon. It's so fast."
She actually never thought about getting married. She just wanted to earn enough money, set up a female household, and adopt two children to live her life. But when she met him, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
Zong's matchmaker didn't stay long. After completing the engagement ceremony for them, he left with Guo Qiang the next day.
Qin Sanlang had a holiday and was in no hurry to leave, but he didn't have any time off either. In addition to accompanying Gu Jinli, he was also busy arranging for Gu Jinan and the others to go to Linhe Prefecture to take the college examination.
The college examination starts on the ninth day of June, and today is already May 20. Gu Jinan and the others will leave for Linhe Mansion tomorrow, and they have been packing their luggage all day today.
We have to go to Xu's house and Qu Xiucai's house to decide on the place and time to meet.
