She dozed off for a while and had long, vague dreams. In his dream, he saw her standing in front of the northern army camp. Liu San was riding on a horse. She ran over in joy, but before she could get close, he was pushed awake by Qin Rui.
"If you hadn't woken up, I would have fed you myself. "Get up and drink the medicine."
Duan Xiaohe sat up and drank the entire bowl of bitter, trembling medicine. Then, she took a new set of clothes and placed it beside her pillow. "Your clothes are all wet. After you change them, I'll take you somewhere."
"Where?"
Qin Rui pretended to be mysterious, she kicked him out, changed his clothes, and left the guest room, then followed him out of the inn. Looking at the small white horse, she suddenly resisted.
"Is it far? "If it's too far, I won't go. I'm not in the mood today."
Qin Rui still stubbornly stretched out his hand. "It's not far, it's only two miles."
Once he said these three words, Duan Xiaohe immediately understood what he meant. Since she couldn't see anyone over there, there was no point in going.
Seeing that she did not move, Qin Rui pressed her body down and immediately pulled her onto the horse's back. Duan Xiaohe held onto the masked man tightly, his emotions was indescribably complicated.
When Qin Rui reached the bottom of the hill, he dragged her all the way down.
From this position, they could clearly see the northern army camp. It was simply obvious at a glance. Qin Rui pointed to those places and told her what he was doing, then pointed to the people training there, saying that if Liu San did not leave, maybe he would be inside right now.
Duan Xiaohe's mind was in a mess, she did not understand how he could so clearly understand what was going on with the northern troop. Looking at those people who were as big as matches and had orderly movements, she felt a bit sad.
"Just take it as if he's still practicing. You've already seen him, and now you can go back peacefully?"
She pursed her lips and nodded. "En, let's go back."
After returning to the Liu Village, the first thing Old Man Liu did was to run over to her and ask her about the situation. Duan Xiaohe truthfully, she had never seen Liu San. The Old Man Liu sighed, then sat for a while before leaving.
Duan Xiaohe found a few days to return home, the little girl had been learning quite well in Fancy Dress, she had already started to take over the clothes making work. It's just that Duan Xiaohe was worried that she would only have this much for her at such a young age.
The little girl probably thought that since she received the same wages and did the least work, she was a little dissatisfied. It just so happened that Duan Xiaohe came over to pay her respects, and the little girl grinded her parents, allowing Duan Xiaohe to let go of her worries.
Duan Xiaohe saw that her sister had also grown up, and couldn't be too used to it. After all, this kind of thing was unfair to the other embroidery lady in the Fancy Dress, so she relaxed.
Then, he talked about Duan Xiaoshen going to the Academy and how he had to deal with it. The little girl smiled and said that Dogman would also be going to school, so they would have company.
It was only then that Duan Xiaohe remembered that the brat from the Liu Wang family had also entered the school. The two children had a partner, so it was a good thing.
In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day of Liu Da. Originally, Old Man Liu wanted to take care of Liu Da's wedding with the Hundred Day Feast, and Duan Xiaohe also said that it was a different story.
Old Man Liu was a little ashamed, his son was his, but now he couldn't even take out the money to make his son happy. The one in Little Ruixue was Liu Er's daughter, but unfortunately, Liu Er didn't have any ability either.
If not for Duan Xiaohe, no one would know which ditch he would be laughed at.
Liu Da's new room was set up in the small house, and Duan Xiaohe's house had a big courtyard, so the wedding feast was naturally placed in her house.
Everyone from the village who were familiar with her had come over to help. Lady Zhang had also returned from the Qinghe County and pulled a cart full of things, all of which were useful for the wedding feast.
The two of them made a lot of pastries in the kitchen, and when they were done, they served them to the helpers for a taste. These were all fresh things that the villagers had never seen before. He knew that the Lady Zhang had gone to a restaurant in the county to be a chef, and looking at her cooking skills, there was no one who did not feel envious.
Widow Li originally wanted to come over to help, but after knowing that Lady Zhang had come, he stayed at home to look for children. Duan Xiaohe knew that these two people would definitely quarrel, so she did not care about her.
The next morning, Duan Xiaohe grabbed Liu Da and changed him into a happy groom's uniform. She wanted to make Liu Da feel better so that Liu Da wouldn't stoop down, and could raise his head and raise his chest and raise his butt. The clothes were made using the Fancy Dress, and the material was the best. Now that he was wearing it, it really did give Liu Da a different feeling.
The people who came to help looked at the clothes and were all praising them.
"This material must be worth a lot of money."
"Right now, her family is doing well. What's the money for this material?"
"I heard that Duan Xiaohe even opened a shop in the city to buy clothes, she earned a lot of money. Tsk tsk, back then your daughter still did not fancy the Liu San, look at how she's living now. "
"Why are you still talking about this now? With how capable Xiao He is, it is Liu San's fortune to be married to him. My daughter is so lazy …" "No way, no way."
That aunty waved her hands with a face full of anger, causing Duan Xiaohe to laugh uncontrollably.
Lady Zhang came to her side, and told her that after Liu Da's marriage was over, she would go and explain everything to Liu Er. In the future, when they meet each other, they would be like strangers, and they would have nothing to do with each other anymore.
Duan Xiaohe looked at her, Lady Zhang seemed to have opened her eyes, her entire demeanor became much more magnanimous. She nodded. "Well, make it clear that no one is to be held up."
Lady Zhang took out a bag and handed it over to her, "This is the hundred day gift I gave to that child. Wait until that day, pass it to Liu Er for me."
Duan Xiaohe pursed her lips, extended his hand, and received it.
Begonia's younger brother, Liu Miao, ran in excitedly from outside, saying that the bride was about to arrive. Duan Xiaohe quickly pulled Liu Da, who was furiously rubbing his hands at the side, to the door and had her wait there to bring the bride in.
Xia Yu was carried in by the wedding nanny. She had a very particular etiquette, kicking the sedan chair door and crossing the brazier, walking the entire process of how they should walk. The dowry was even more so for two or three boxes. It was unknown what valuable items it was.
Some people said that Liu Da had spent a lot of money to give the Xia Clan Lady a betrothal gift that was worth more than a hundred silver. The surrounding villagers clucked their tongues, discussing quietly about how the girls from the city had their eyes on this idiot, Liu Da. With how much attention they have now, would it be possible for them to get used to this kind of life in the countryside?
Liu Da brought the bride into the hall, paid respects to the parents on both sides, and then sent her to the bridal room.
The joyous event had invited everyone into the village, even the Duan Clan and their parents had come, and all the Fancy Dress s had come down as well. Qian Qiaoqiao and her evil mother-in-law had also come down, and were talking to Old Man Liu in the hall.
The old lady could not see, she originally thought Liu Da was a villager, but after hearing Xia Quanan explain to her the style of the house and the grandiose atmosphere outside, she then heard from the outside that Xia Yu had a good day after he married into the house, which made her feel satisfied, and did not say anymore.
The worry that Old Man Liu had been holding was finally relieved. While he was feeling happy, he was also feeling guilty for owing Duan Xiaohe.
Lady Zhang called for the people outside to take their seats, opening up the hotpot that the Jade Food Inn had recently solemnly pushed out. This was considered rare here, the Lady Zhang was also an old villager, they taught others how to eat it, and said that as long as they could eat it, they would casually eat it, and not be afraid of being eaten until they run out.
This commotion caused the people of Liu Village to become extremely curious, and gave the Old Man Liu quite a bit of face. Everyone was waiting for the Liu Er Family's child, the Hundred Heavens Banquet, to make something special. When some of them went up to ask him about good things, Old Man Liu would become a little unhappy.
He felt a heavy pressure as the other side drove too well.
The boy who he had been bragging about turned into a girl and was now a joke. If he failed again, he would look down on his own family.
However, this was Liu Da's wedding, so it naturally had to be done in a more grand manner. I'm afraid that the Little Ruixue's Hundred Day Feast can only be a little simpler.
It was not the first or second time he was being laughed at.
Old Man Liu sighed, said a few polite words and hid in the hall to not come out.
When Qin Rui arrived a little later, he caught up to the last table and ate a hearty meal.
After he finished making a ruckus in his new room, he left after having eaten his fill.
had also changed into a new set of clothes, with his sleeves rolled up, saying that he wanted to help. The few of them were so scared that they immediately chased her out, telling her to change back her wedding dress, and wait for the wedding ceremony.
Xia Yu's face was flushed red, she ran back to her room bashfully, causing everyone to laugh.
The women sat in the hall and chatted for a while. It was getting late, so they all dispersed. The Duan Clan's parents were very close, so they left after eating dinner. The ones that couldn't be returned would be squeezed into the village tonight.
After everyone had left, Duan Xiaohe sat alone in the hall and laughed at herself.
Her marriage was so casual, but Eldest Uncle's marriage was something she cared so much about. Before Liu San left, he told her to put in a lot of effort, but she didn't know if Liu San was satisfied with this marriage or not.
After all, it had been so long, did Liu San return to the South Zhangzhou or did he see the clothes and shoes that he brought over for him? The pastries in the package had probably been ruined for quite some time now …
Qin Rui swaggered into the courtyard, holding onto a jug of wine.
"Do you dare to take another two bites?"
Duan Xiaohe shook her head, "No, Second Sister is sleeping with me tonight, I will be going up in a while."
Qin Rui nodded, and just like that, he took a gulp from the jar.
"I'm going to the capital in a few days. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"
