Wangshu took the jade pendant from Aunt Wang and for some reason, felt a touch of emotion. Although he had never met her, he could sense that she was a warm person.
This token of trust made her feel a sense of dependence for no reason.
"Miss Wangshu, let me congratulate you in advance on finding your ideal husband." Aunt Wang said happily.
"Thank you, Aunt Wang." Wangshu smiled and asked hesitantly, "Aunt Wang, I've already agreed to this. Can you tell me what he looks like? Is he really like what you said?"
"Auntie Wang is not lying to you. That Young Master Lin is really good. I've met the young master of Li Dafu's family, and you know, his temperament is not even one-tenth as good as his." Auntie Wang was full of praise: "You have met a good family this time."
"Really?"
"That's right. With my twenty years of experience as a matchmaker, I know that Mr. Lin is either rich or noble, and he's very rich and noble," said Aunt Wang.
"I don't ask him to be rich and powerful, as long as he is a good person." Wangyue shook his head and smiled bitterly, he couldn't expect much.
"Wangshu, just wait and enjoy your life. Take care of yourself these few days and stop selling mooncakes." Aunt Wang advised, "In two days, we will receive the betrothal gifts."
"good."
Wangshu nodded in agreement.
…
The news of Wangshu's marriage proposal spread throughout Wangyue Village, shocking everyone. The man they feared so much was proposed to again, and it was said that he came from a wealthy family.
Now everyone in the village is curious about the identity of Wangshu's fiancé.
Outside the Wangyue Cake Shop, many villagers gathered and were discussing who Wangshu would marry, but since Aunt Wang didn't say anything, they could only guess.
"Do you think Wangshu's fiancé has some hidden illness that's why he chose her?"
"I don't think it's that reliable. Wangshu's reputation for being tough is well-known throughout the surrounding area."
"The other party is attracted by the other party's looks, right?"
"She should be. Otherwise, what's the point of her? If she can marry into a good family, why can't my daughter? Let Aunt Wang find a better one for my daughter someday."
“…”
While everyone was discussing, there was movement at the entrance of Wangyue Village.
A group of people with betrothal gifts came in a mighty procession.
The procession was hundreds of meters long, carrying countless betrothal boxes containing various treasures. The noise was so loud that it attracted the attention of the entire village.
Aunt Wang was at the entrance of the village, staring at the scene with her mouth wide open in disbelief.
She knew that Lin Han's status was not low, but now it seemed that Mr. Lin's status was not ordinary high.
"Are you Matchmaker Wang?" the leader asked Aunt Wang.
"Yes, I am."
"Wang Mei, I am a ceremonial officer from the Great Xia Ministry of Rites. I'm here to propose marriage on behalf of the Emperor." The lead ceremonial officer said, "Please take us to Miss Wangshu's home."
"Your Majesty? Wangshu?"
"Yes, the emperor asked us to prepare the betrothal gifts the day before yesterday and come to Wangyue Village in Zigui to present the betrothal gifts to Miss Wangshu according to secular etiquette." said the chief ceremonial officer.
"Mr. Lin, is it the Emperor?"
"The emperor should be the Young Master Lin you mentioned." said the chief ceremonial officer.
"Oh please, I'll take you there."
Aunt Wang almost cried out loud.
It was quite reasonable for Master Lin, the emperor, to come here on a secret visit and see Miss Wangshu, as there were many concubines in the Bronze Sparrow Palace who were of commoner origin.
She never thought that one day she would be able to act as a matchmaker for the emperor.
This is a great gift from heaven.
"What's going on?"
"Such a grand ceremony? Is Wangshu really marrying into a good family this time?"
"People from the government? People from the government, we can't let the government team come to pay the betrothal gifts, right? Using public resources for personal gain?"
"What a large procession! The betrothal gifts must be in the hundreds of boxes, right? Even the sedan chair has been delivered? It's such a beautiful sedan chair, it must be very expensive, right?"
“…”
The villagers who were watching witnessed such a grand spectacle that everyone was stunned.
"Does anyone know which official this is?"
"There's a dragon, could it be the emperor?"
"That's impossible."
“…”
The scene was extremely lively, but no one dared to stop it.
The team stopped in front of Wangshu's house, and the ceremonial officer asked people to put down the betrothal gifts. The small house could not hold them, so they put them out on the street.
Wangshu looked at the team in front of him and was shocked.
She only wanted an ordinary husband, she didn't ask for anything extravagant, but she didn't expect it to be so grand. Obviously, as Aunt Wang said, the other party was not an ordinary person.
"Miss Wangshu, this is the engagement letter."
"These are betrothal gifts."
The ceremonial officer delivered the engagement letter and gift list to Wangshu in one piece.
"Is this sent by Young Master Lin?" Wangshu looked at Aunt Wang blankly.
"Yes, both."
"Auntie Wang, what is Mr. Lin's identity?"
Wangshu was a little at a loss. She didn't know how to think.
She couldn't make this much money selling any of these gifts even if she sold mooncakes her entire life.
"You will know Mr. Lin's identity when the time comes. Just know it and enjoy yourself in the future. No one will bully you or gossip about you anymore." Aunt Wang said enviously.
Her intuition was correct. If she really had a daughter, she would really give the child to Lin Han.
"Oh oh oh."
Wangshu stared at the engagement letter and gift list in a daze.
"Miss Wangshu, please get ready. The wedding day will be in two days. The wedding party will come to pick you up then." said the ceremonial officer.
"Okay, sir, I will arrange it for her so she won't miss the time." Aunt Wang said.
"Okay, then I'll take my leave. These guards will stay here to protect Miss Wangshu. There's a steward who will help you arrange some things."
After the ceremonial officer finished speaking, he turned around and said goodbye, leaving behind numerous guards, a room full of betrothal gifts, and the incredible Wangshu.
