Chapter 414: Yunguogong Mansion Banquet
Jiang Yi shared the good news with Daya as soon as possible.
Daya told Lu Qiniang.
Lu Qinniang was originally sitting on the kang. She was so excited when she heard this that she got up and walked around the room.
——How could she not be excited?
She likes both of them, and both of them have difficulty getting married.
Now we can kill two birds with one stone and bring two good people together. How happy it is.
"Mother, why are you so excited?" Erya couldn't help but say when she saw her excitement, "I see you're acting like this. When Miss Jiang gives birth, you can go and take care of her during the confinement period."
"Why not? I can even help take care of the children." Lu Qiniang said, "They both say they come from wealthy families, but they both have bitterness in their hearts. Now that they can be together, their lives will be better in the future."
She also thought that if she needed any help in arranging the wedding, she would definitely do her best to help.
In the future, these will be close relatives with whom we will be able to visit for a long time.
In short, I am happy.
Yun Ting went to find Jiang Yi and told her that he wanted to take Jiang Quan to Yongji County.
"I'm just a county magistrate. If he goes there, he'll be worse than me and probably won't even get a job. But Xiao Yan said it's always good to go out and gain some experience. I didn't ask his opinion, but I came to ask if you're willing."
If Jiang Yi agrees, then he will ask Jiang Quan.
If Jiang Yi disagrees, he will pretend that this incident never happened and not create any rift between the siblings.
Jiang Yi thought for a moment and said, "This is a good opportunity. Besides, he doesn't hold any official position, so he can come back anytime he wants. I have no objection to this."
She asked someone to call Jiang Quan over.
When Jiang Quan heard that it was Xiao Yan's idea, he immediately agreed.
Although Yun Ting himself had once been madly infatuated with Xiao Yan, but seeing Jiang Quan's blind worship, he thought to himself that one day, you will also discover Xiao Yan's true face.
The purpose of coming to the Jiang family had been achieved, so Yun Ting joked with Jiang Yi: "Good things are coming, congratulations."
Before Jiang Yi could say anything, the young and inexperienced Jiang Quan spoke up.
"What good news is coming? What are you congratulating me for?"
"Nothing." Jiang Yi's face was a little unnatural, "It's just that the emperor might grant me a marriage."
"A marriage? Who?" Jiang Quan's eyes widened instantly, "How can the emperor just give you a marriage? No way——"
"It's Zhou Xiaoyao, Lord Zhou." Yun Ting raised the corners of his lips.
Jiang Quan: "...Oh, that's okay."
He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually ecstatic in his heart.
Isn't this his wish coming true?
He said that Lord Zhou was very suitable to be his brother-in-law.
"Yun Ting," Jiang Quan suddenly looked at Yun Ting and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise."
Yun Ting slowly typed a question mark.
"My sister is getting married, and I can't go with you. I want to arrange the wedding for her and let her marry off in a grand manner."
Yun Ting: "...If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have helped you to ask the Emperor to grant your sister a marriage with Zhou Xiaoyao, humph!"
"Did you ask for help?" Jiang Quan asked.
"Why are you asking for it on Jiang Quan's behalf?" Jiang Yi was puzzled. "Besides, what about this matter you brought up with the Emperor?"
Although she didn't say it out loud, the words "What are your intentions?" were clearly written on her face.
Yun Ting looked at Jiang Quan's fearless expression and said speechlessly, "Now that things have come to this, your sister is willing, what are you afraid of? He has been eyeing you two for a long time and wanted to break that window paper for you two, so he thought of asking the emperor to decree the marriage. I mentioned it to the emperor that day."
Only then did Jiang Yi understand the whole story.
She was not one to shy away, and immediately bowed to Yun Ting and said, "Thank you very much. I will definitely invite you, the matchmaker, to take the seat at the table when we get married. As for arranging the wedding, I can do it myself. Jiang Quan will still rely on you to take care of him from now on."
"Sister, I won't go, I——"
Jiang Yi glared at him and Jiang Quan didn't dare to speak.
Her sister's whip really hurts.
"I'm just getting married, what's the big deal? Besides, how far is Yongji County from the capital? I can get there in half a day on horseback." Jiang Yi said, "It's rare for you to go out and see the world. Come with Yun Ting. I'll call you back if anything happens. Nothing will be delayed."
Seeing that Jiang Quan was still about to object, she said "Hmm?" and Jiang Quan immediately said, "Okay then."
The matter was finalized, and the Jiang family began to get busy, waiting for the imperial edict, preparing the dowry, and sending Jiang Quan out.
On the ninth day of every Lunar New Year, the Yunguo Mansion would invite close relatives and friends to their home, and would also invite people to perform in the hall, making it a lively and festive occasion.
This year is no exception.
Now that Xiao Yan has been reinstated, he has also received an invitation from the Duke's Mansion.
"Abandoned Mother, my grandmother said she wants to meet you." Yun Ting said honestly, repeating the message like a parrot. "She said that you will always have to visit different people in the future, so why not start with ours? If anything goes wrong, she will have your back. As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. You won't be so nervous when visiting other people's homes next time."
This is completely well-intentioned.
Lu Qiniang readily agreed, "It's a good opportunity to take Daya and the other two sisters out to see some new things."
She was really nervous about going to other places.
"Mom, where are the new clothes you made before the New Year?" Erya was the most excited. "You must wear them. I will help you dress up later."
"Just take care of yourself. Why should I dress up?" Lu Qiniang felt a little embarrassed.
If she puts on makeup, won't she look like a monkey?
But if you don't clean up, you'll look out of place when you get there and will be too conspicuous.
"Aunt Sang," Lu Qiniang pleaded, "What do you think I should do?"
Aunt Sang smiled and said, "Madam, you don't need to wear heavy makeup. Just dress simply and look fresh. I will help you. Don't worry."
Lu Qiniang gave her a thumbs up.
This is her biological sister.
With Aunt Sang around, she felt much more at ease.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Lu Qinniang was forced to sit in front of the dressing table and start dressing up early in the morning.
