An Ning returned home and had lunch, then An Dashan and An Yong returned home with the official media. An Ning quickly asked, "How is it going? Is it going well?"
An Dashan nodded and said, "It went very smoothly. Lord Yin asked us to choose a good day for the wedding."
An Ning felt relieved after hearing this and said, "Have you chosen a date?"
An Dashan shook his head and said, "No, Master Yin has already given me Miss Yin's horoscope and asked us to match it."
At this time, the official media next to him said, "Can you listen to me?"
An Ning finally realized that there was a matchmaker nearby, and quickly said, "Aunt, if you have anything to say, just say it."
The official media said, "There is a mountain called Xiawu Mountain not far away. On the mountain is a Qingshan Temple. The abbot of Qingshan Temple is very good at matching horoscopes. You may as well go to Qingshan Temple to find the abbot to match horoscopes."
An Ning nodded and said, "That's great, thank you auntie."
The official media smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. You guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go back first."
An Ning sent the official matchmaker to the door and instructed the servants in the mansion to make sure to send him home, then returned to the reception room.
An Dashan saw An Ning coming back and said, "I've discussed with your brother that we should go to Qingshan Temple tomorrow to set the wedding date so that we can go home. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to get back in time when your mother gives birth."
An Ning also knew this, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after breakfast, the three of them drove the carriage to Qingshan Temple. Qingshan Temple was indeed very popular, with so many people there early in the morning.
An Ning and his companions first went to the main hall to worship the Buddha statue, and then, under the guidance of the young monk, they found the abbot. When the abbot saw An Ning and his companions, he said, "No wonder I predicted that a distinguished person would come this morning."
An Ning and others quickly put their hands together and chanted "Amitabha!" Then, An Dashan said, "Master, I would like you to help me match my son's horoscope." As he said that, he presented the horoscopes of Yin Wan'er and An Yong with both hands.
The young monk took the eight characters and handed them to the abbot. The abbot made some calculations and said, "These two are a match made in heaven." He said only this and said nothing more.
An Ning asked again: "Master, when is the best time to set the wedding date?"
The abbot thought for a while and said, "May 9th of next year is an auspicious day." The few people were very happy to get the exact date. After thanking the abbot again, they donated twenty taels of incense money and went down the mountain.
An Ning and his companions went down the mountain and met a well-dressed man with a long-serving attendant coming up the mountain. An Yong saw them and saluted them, saying, "I am here to see you, Commander." An Dashan and An Ning also saluted them.
Zhenyuan Hou raised his hand and said, "General An, there is no need to be polite. I guess these two are your father and sister, right?" An Yong replied, "Yes, these are my father and sister."
Marquis Zhenyuan nodded and said, "I heard that General An is getting married soon. Don't forget to treat me to a glass of wedding wine when the time comes."
An Yong quickly agreed and said, "Yes, it is an honor for me to have the coach here."
The Marquis of Zhenyuan nodded and left with his attendant. After the Marquis of Zhenyuan had gone far away, An Yong and his companions continued to walk down the mountain.
After the wedding date was set, An Dashan went to the governor's mansion again. Since the date was neither too urgent nor too far away, the governor was very satisfied with it.
While An Dashan was out, An Ning went to the temporary rental yard again and moved out 90% of the chickens and rabbits in the space, leaving only 10%. Even so, there were still about 100 rabbits and more than 50 chickens left.
An Ning did the same thing and went to the largest restaurant in Juyongguan to sell all the rabbits and chickens. An Ning originally thought that the restaurant could not eat so many chickens and rabbits, and maybe he would have to find a few more restaurants to sell them all. Unexpectedly, the owner of the restaurant waved his hand and accepted all of them.
A total of more than 800 rabbits and more than 400 chickens were sold for 110 taels of silver.
After the restaurant took the chickens and rabbits away, An Ning went to the restaurant again and returned the key to the yard to Zhang Ya Ren.
After An Ning handed the key to Zhang Yaren, she went to buy some gifts and planned to go to Captain Zheng's house with An Dashan tomorrow to thank Zhao for taking care of her family during this period.
An Ning and An Dashan entered the house one after the other. An Dashan asked in confusion, "Ning Ning, where were you just now?"
An Ning showed the gifts she was carrying to An Dashan and said, "I went to buy some gifts. Aren't we going home the day after tomorrow? I think Aunt Zheng has taken such good care of us during this period of time. Now that we are going home, we should bring gifts to thank her."
An Dashan nodded and said, "My daughter is really thoughtful." Then he took the gift from An Ning and walked into the yard.
An Ning saw two servants busy in the yard and shouted, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Wang, there are still a lot of things in the cart, take them all to the kitchen."
The chickens that An Ning took out last time had been eaten, so this time An Ning took out ten old hens, ten rabbits and two large baskets of eggs.
Uncle Zhou and Aunt Wang agreed and went to unload the truck. Wang'er heard it and went to help. An Ning looked at the clever Wang'er and thought, "It's a pity not to cultivate such a clever child." So he said to An Dashan, "Dad, why don't we send Wang'er to a private school? After he is trained, he can help his elder brother."
An Dashan nodded and said, "You can decide for yourself." Then he walked in.
An Ning waited until Wang'er had moved all the things to the kitchen before calling Wang'er over and saying, "Wang'er, do you want to study?"
Wang Er was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to react. He asked in disbelief, "Miss, are you going to send me to school?"
An Ning smiled and nodded, saying, "Well, are you willing?"
Wang Er nodded quickly and said, "Miss, I do."
An Ning nodded and said, "Okay, after lunch, you can go to the private school nearby with me."
Wanger responded happily and ran to the kitchen to tell his mother about it. His mother was also very happy and kept saying that her family had really met a good person.
In the afternoon, An Ning made some inquiries and found a private school with a good reputation for Wang'er. She paid one year's tuition for him and bought him books, pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Although they were all ordinary items, Wang'er was very happy.
