Chapter 71 Su Xi Gets Married (I)

After dinner, Su Qian returned to the wooden house where Yan Qinghan had lived before, because it allowed her to practice her mental skills in peace and quiet.

Ye Xun was arranged to stay in the room where Dongfang Yi had lived before.

The next morning, Gu Luyun came to see her.

"What's wrong, mother? What's the matter?"

Su Qian was slightly surprised, because usually Su Xi came over for breakfast, and Gu Luyun needed to take care of the twins, so she seldom disturbed her.

“That’s right!”

Gu Luyun thought about it for a moment, and then said directly, "Last night, your uncle and aunt discussed it, and the boy from the Ye family came here from afar. They plan to hold a wedding for your sister Xi and her family?"

"What? So careless?"

Su Qian raised her eyebrows. Isn’t this too fast?

"It's not too hasty! Originally, your sister Xi and he were in love with each other, and since he came all the way here, I decided to help them get together!"

Gu Luyun explained, "I also asked Ye Xun today, he came here with the permission of his family. In addition, he has to rush back to the capital to participate in the palace examination next spring, so your second uncle and his family plan to let him take your sister Xi back after they get married and go to the government to register!"

"Well, since Sister Xi is willing, I am happy for her. But I am a little surprised. When are you planning to hold the wedding?"

Su Qian nodded and said.

I had been planning to go to the sea again tonight, but it seems I can only do so after Su Xi’s wedding is over.

"Tomorrow! I came here to discuss with you what to buy for Xi. If your sister Xi got married in the general's mansion in the past, I would prepare 28 sets of dowry for her to show off at her husband's house. But now..."

Gu Luyun sighed, "Now that we don't have this family background, mother doesn't know what to do!"

"What do Second Uncle and the others plan to do?"

Su Qian looked towards the stone fortress and asked softly.

"Your second uncle and his family have only earned a few dozen taels of silver in the past half month. They plan to go to the town today to buy wedding clothes for the two of them, and then give the remaining silver to Sister Xi as a deposit."

Gu Luyun whispered, "Mother knows that you have a good relationship with your sister Xi, so I came to you to discuss what to buy for her."

Su Qian frowned slightly, "I definitely can't give her twenty-eight taels, but eight taels is no problem. Then I'll give her a hundred taels of silver and a few pearls as makeup!"

Those things can be exchanged in the trading market in Suzhou and Qianhai. The most valuable ones are the pearls, which can be sold for more than a thousand taels of silver each in the capital.

After all, pearls of that size are rarely seen even in the capital, and scarcity makes things valuable!

"Okay, then you decide."

Gu Luyun nodded gently, "Ye Xun said that he would help find out about your father when he returned to the capital. When he came from the capital, he heard that the generals who had fought with your father in the past did not believe that your father was that kind of person."

Su Qian nodded gently, "Well, don't worry, Dad should be fine!"

Since she merged her soul with her original body, everything that happened to her from childhood to adulthood is no longer just fragments of her memory, but it is as if she had experienced it herself.

Even though she knew that Gu Luyun in front of her was not her biological mother, then General Su Wusheng was not her biological father.

However, the grace of raising is greater than the grace of giving birth. Even if I find my biological parents in the future, I will still treat them as my own relatives.

Moreover, judging from the scene he had seen before, his biological mother was most likely no longer in this world.

Therefore, the first thing she had to do was to cherish the present, settle the Su family's relatives, and then investigate her own life experience after she had no worries about the future.

"Let's go, let's go have breakfast first. Your second uncle has already gone out to sea with your brother Ah He to fish. They plan to catch more fish today and then take them to the town to buy some red cloth and food."

"Okay, after dinner, I'll go buy something!"

Su Qian nodded gently, holding Gu Luyun's hand and walked towards the stone fortress.

Seeing Su Xi, who was blushing and shy but full of happiness, Su Qian softly blessed her, "Sister Xi, congratulations, you finally married the person you wanted to marry!"

"Ah Qian, thank you! I also hope that you can find your own happiness in the future!"

Su Xi is no longer the carefree girl she used to be. Instead, she looks like a gentle little woman. With the rosy glow on her face, she looks especially gorgeous.

She held Su Qian's hand and said softly, "Sister, you can see that Master Yan only has you in his eyes, and you also have Master Yan in your heart! If he comes back, you should get married sooner, and then we can arrange a baby marriage for our child."

Su Qian's face was dark, "Sister Xi, it's too early for me. I don't want to get married for the time being."

Although she has no blood of the Su family, their children can be together, but she feels that fate is something that is predestined. If she agrees to it easily now, it will be troublesome if they become a pair of resentful lovers in the future.

No!

I haven't even planned to get married yet, why am I thinking about having children in the future?

Bah, I was led astray by Su Xi!

"You are fifteen years old now. If your uncle's incident hadn't happened, you would have had your coming-of-age ceremony! It's also time to think about your marriage!"

Su Xi said softly, "Young Master Yan does look good. If you don't like the Third Prince, you should get married to him as soon as possible!"

"Sister Xi, my business is not urgent. I haven't considered these yet."

Su Qianqian smiled, "Why did you decide so quickly? Don't you plan to stay for a while before getting married?"

"Axun came to look for me and delayed me for almost two months. If we go back by carriage, it will take at least half a month. He still has to review his lessons after he goes back, so time is a bit tight, so..."

Su Xi's face was filled with happiness and shyness.

Su Qian smiled and said, "I'm afraid Sister Xi wants to marry her sweetheart as soon as possible!"

"You stupid girl, you actually teased me!"

Su Xi looked unhappy and started quarreling with Su Qian, swinging his sleeves.

Su Qian had a rare chance to relax, so he played with her for a while until the second aunt of the Su family brought out breakfast.

Seeing Ye Xun coming out of the kitchen to help, Su Qian nodded with satisfaction.

In ancient times, people believed that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen, but Ye Xun was not one to stick to etiquette.

When Su Xi saw Su Xi, she hurriedly straightened her clothes with a faint blush on her face.

"Let's eat!"

The second aunt of the Su family shouted.

At the dinner table, Ye Xun was busy picking up food for Su Xi and carefully helping her remove fish bones, so that everyone could have a good meal.

After dinner, Su Qian went to the dock, planning to buy some dowry for Su Xi.

Of course, she didn't plan to go to Haiping Town, but to exchange it directly from the trading market and put it on the fishing boat.

When Su Xi leaves the day after tomorrow, she will be taken directly to Haiping Town by boat and put on a carriage.
