Chapter 262 Wedding Date

Princess Kangle glanced at Xie Yuan, who took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said, "I also went to Qintianjian to have someone calculate the date before the Lunar New Year. Madam Shen, Lord Shen, can you tell me which date is suitable?"

Shen Yun smiled when he heard this and took out a piece of paper. "Actually, I also went to calculate it a few days ago."

"Ah... I wonder which lord in the Qintian Guardian Lord Shen is looking for?"

"I'm looking for Lord Yu, the chief of the Qintian Prison. Lord Yu and I are old friends, so I asked him to help me. Who is Lord Xie looking for?"

Xie Yuan smiled awkwardly, "What a coincidence, I was also looking for Master Yu." Master Yu didn't give him the money for nothing, he also took away five rare books from him! His rare books...

When Shen Yun found out that Xie Yuan had calculated the date a few days earlier than him, he said with a smile, "This old Yu didn't tell me about this. So what we wrote on the paper should be the same. Two people with the same horoscopes should not have different auspicious dates calculated.

Xie Yuan and Shen Yun took turns looking at it. There were three dates on it, and they were indeed the same. There were more than one auspicious day in a year, but the best days were rare, and sometimes there was not even one in a year.

It was her daughter who was going to get married, and Shen Yun did not make a decision after looking at the dates herself. Instead, she asked Shen Yuan and Xie Hui: "There are three dates in total. You can listen and see which one you think is good. The first is August 6th this year, the other is October 20th next year, and the last one is December 8th the year after." Lord Yu must have written down the three best dates closest to now.

Everyone else in the room looked at Shen Yuan and Xie Hui, letting them decide when to go.

Xie Hui looked at Shen Yuan, and Shen Yuan said, "I think October next year will be good. The weather will be neither too hot nor too cold, and the 20th is a day off for everyone."

"Manman's words make sense. In that case, let's set the wedding date on October 20th next year? What do you think?" Shen Yun asked Xie Yuan and Princess Kangle and her husband.

Princess Kangle couldn't stop smiling and said quickly, "Of course that's good. Let's do as Manman wishes."

Next October, just over a year will pass in the blink of an eye!

In the afternoon, after Xie Hui and his parents left, Shen Xu asked his sister awkwardly, "Why don't you choose the year after next? The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month sounds like a good date."

Shen Yuan said nonsense casually: "I know my brother can't bear to let me go, but sooner or later I have to get married, so it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one."

“Is that how the word is used?”

"Brother, the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion is not far away. If you miss me, just come and visit me after work every day. I'll leave you some food. Eat it and then come back."

But no matter what Shen Yuan said, Shen Su was immersed in the sadness of his sister getting married soon, and couldn't extricate himself.

Shen Yuan had no choice but to say to He Ying: "Sister-in-law, please comfort my brother. I'll go see dad."

He Ying nodded to her, but she didn't say that she also needed comfort.

Shen Yuan guessed that his father must be talking to his mother at this time. When he went to take a look, it was indeed the case. Shen Yuan did not go in to disturb them, but sat outside waiting.

As soon as Shen Yun came out, he saw the young lady looking at him with a worried look on her face. He felt very relieved, but couldn't help but find it funny.

"Why? Are you still worried that your father is hiding and crying?"

"That's possible."

"Don't worry, Daddy is not crying. Daddy has been prepared for this. You and Youqi love each other and will get married sooner or later. Besides, the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion is not far away. Daddy has grown up and can walk over to see you when he misses you."

"You don't have to walk over there. I can walk back by myself. And think about it, Dad. When I pass the exam and become your subordinate in the Dali Temple, you will see me there and at home again. I'm afraid you will be annoyed by me."

"You make it sound like you've passed the exam. How's Dazhao Lu doing?"

Shen Yuan said confidently: "It's fine, your daughter is working hard, I kept the Dazhao Law on New Year's Eve."

Shen Yuan thought, even if it wasn't for herself, she couldn't bring shame to her father. If the daughter of the Dali Temple Minister couldn't answer the test questions, wouldn't her father be laughed at?

"Okay then, Dad will wait and see."

Shen Yuan also went to see his grandmother. She didn't look reluctant at all. She looked energetic and was using her abacus to clatter.

"Grandma, you still have this skill. Your calculation is really right." Shen Yuan gave a thumbs up.

"Go and play by yourself, don't bother me."

The nanny then explained to Shen Yuan, "Fourth Miss, the old lady is counting on your dowry. The princess's mansion has sent a lot of betrothal gifts, so we can't be short of dowry."

"Grandmother, so that's what you're worried about. We can take as much as we can. No matter how much we calculate, we can't catch up with the princess's family. You can't let your family suffer because of my marriage, right?"

"This dowry is your honor. The whole capital will be watching. Don't worry. Our family won't go poor if you marry us. Don't stay here if you have nothing to do. Go and play with your sister. Your sister will leave again in a few days."

"I know. I'm going to go now."

Today is the sixth day of the New Year. Shen Xi and Lu Ne had decided to set off for Yanzhou on the eleventh day. The county government is not like the officials in the capital, who do not go to court until the sixteenth day. Even on the first day of the New Year, the county magistrate has to go to court if necessary.

The county magistrate had given Lu Ne a few extra days of vacation this time. If he stayed any longer, it would be considered immature.

"Sister, brother-in-law, there are only a few days left, why are you packing up now?"

"If I tidy up a little bit every day, I won't be too busy. Besides, you, my second sister-in-law, and my grandmother send me things every day and ask me to take them back to Yanzhou. If I don't tidy up, it will definitely be a mess."

After Shen Xi finished speaking, she pulled Shen Yuan to the table in the inner room and handed her a sandalwood box.

"What is this?" Shen Yuan said as he opened the box and was a little surprised to see what was inside.

"It's just my sister's makeup for you. You're not going to marry into an ordinary family, so the more things you have, the better."

"Sister, now is not the right time to add makeup. I'm not getting married tomorrow. Besides, you've given me too much. I don't want it. And if I'm not mistaken, a lot of this is given to you by your grandmother, right? My grandmother also gave it to me. We both have it, so you don't have to give me yours."

Shen Yuan recognized that her grandmother's shops were all connected together, and many of them were on the same street as hers.

"My grandmother gave it to me. She said she was afraid I would be wronged in Yanzhou, so she gave me a lot. If you don't want it now, I'll have someone put it in your room when you leave. Keep it."

There were not only shops in the box, but also banknotes. Shen Yuan simply took a few banknotes and said, "Sister, you don't know, there are too many shops and I can't take care of them all. Just give me the banknotes directly."

Shen Yuan planned to use this money as her elder sister's share of the clinic. She would have someone send her elder sister's share every month after earning money. This way, she could also check on her elder sister's life. But of course, there was no need to talk about it now.

Seeing that her sister accepted part of it, Shen Xi stopped trying to persuade her, and instead sighed, "Other brothers and sisters fight over the family's money, but I can't even give it away. It's the same for you and for your brother."

——Small Theater

Mr. Qin Tianjian Yu: Xie Yuan, I didn't take your five unique books for nothing. I didn't write about the date five years later because I was kind. It's only five unique books, it's worth it!
