The two families knew each other well and didn't want to bother with anything. The Su family still asked Mrs. Fan to act as a matchmaker and found an official matchmaker to go through the formalities. It didn't take long before Su Anzhi and Xun Wan'er's marriage was finalized, which would take place in March next year.
The Zhaohou Mansion wanted 80,000 taels for the marriage, but the Su and Xun families only needed 10,000 taels to get it done. Even so, the Xun family still felt it was a great achievement, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Lord Xun patted Su Anzhi's shoulder excitedly, "Little brother..."
Everyone looked at him, why was there a generation difference?
Lord Xun was stunned, and couldn't help but raised his head and laughed, "Sorry, I'm used to it. I'll change it... change it right away..."
Everyone was also amused by Lord Xun and laughed along.
Outside the restaurant, snow was falling.
It's warm as spring inside the restaurant.
This year, the Su family hosted a dinner at the restaurant owned by their son-in-law Zhao Lan. Relatives, close neighbors and friends gathered together and set up ten tables.
Su Yanzu's two children walked through the crowd, as happy as little birds about to take off, giggling non-stop and chasing the little adult - Shangguan Suihe, making the already lively atmosphere even more lively.
For some reason, Su Ruojin felt dizzy and sat quietly on the side, watching the fun without taking part in it.
Lord Xue took the opportunity to sit next to her, looked at the people chatting and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with Ah Jin?"
It was almost the New Year, and Su Ruojin didn't say she was feeling unwell, but smiled and said, "I'm old, and I can't play anymore."
Master Xue's eyes widened in fear, "You are old, so aren't we old monsters?"
Ha ha……
They both laughed.
Mr. Xue sighed, "Ten years ago, we lived in the same alley, but ten years later..."
They both thought of their neighbor on the right, the Yang family.
Lord Xue asked cautiously, "Are they all right?"
Madam Yang settled down in Yulin with her children. Yang Si Niang...
Su Ruojin unconsciously stood up and stood at the window. Through the window paper, she could see the heavy snow falling like goose feathers. She didn't know where in the Dayin Dynasty she and Zhao had wandered to. Perhaps it was in the north, where she could see the snow with her.
Ah Wei!
Yang Si Niang came in from outside and sneezed, "Who is thinking about me?"
Aunt Yang didn't expect that her younger sister would come to Wei County to celebrate the New Year this year. She was very happy and specially made a copper pot with the soup boiling. When she saw her younger sister coming in, she quickly got up to greet her.
The three nieces and nephews also came over and called sweetly, "Auntie..."
"Aunt."
Aunt Yang glanced behind her, "Where's Sister Zhao?"
Yang Si Niang replied, "She went to visit an old friend."
"Oh." Aunt Yang didn't ask any more questions and quickly pulled her sister to sit at the table. "The soup is boiling. Let's eat quickly."
Even without a man, the two sisters still live a prosperous life.
Aunt Yang's shop opened in the nearby county town. She had plenty of money and had sent her children to Dongshan Academy. In a few years, her son would become successful and her daughters would be married off one by one. Then she would have finally made it through and could enjoy her life.
"When they are all married, I will go with you to see the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River and the lonely smoke in the desert."
Yang Si Niang exclaimed happily: "Sister, you are right to think so."
“You!”
After experiencing the pain of marriage, Aunt Yang no longer advises her sister to find a man to marry. Anyway, she has a son and a daughter, and when that day comes, she will let her children take care of her aunt in her old age and see her to the end of her life.
Thinking of this, Aunt Yang smiled.
Life is so good now!
I had just been stopped by Lord Xue to talk about Osmanthus Hutong, and now Princess Yuehua invited me to come and chat with her.
"Ajin still not moving?"
It has been almost two years since Su Ruojin got married last year, and there has been no sign of pregnancy. The Princess of Jin and her husband have never urged her to get pregnant. Or maybe they have, but she doesn't know. Anyway, they have never mentioned this to her.
Su Ruojin smiled, "Not yet."
Yuehua looked at Zhao Lan who was chatting with someone not far away, "That's right, who let A-Lan spoil you."
As long as Zhao Lan is not anxious, it doesn't matter who else is anxious.
Su Ruojin thought to herself, she is only nineteen years old, why is she in such a hurry? She was just about to find an excuse to leave, but Yuehua smiled and said, "You are really a lucky dumpling."
Well……
Have you run out of things to talk about? Why do I feel like I'm having an awkward conversation?
Santai walked in, "Little Prince, would you like some food?"
Zhao Lan glanced at his father-in-law.
Su Yanli nodded happily, "Go ahead, go ahead!"
When I got together with my family and friends, we were so excited chatting that I even forgot to serve the food.
Santai received the order, opened the door and moved it aside. The waiters serving the dishes came in one after another, and the hot dishes were served on the table in a flash.
Prince Jin and Lord Fan took the main seats, while Madam Fan sat with Princess Jin.
She laughed and said, "If it weren't for the invitation from my in-laws, I would never have been to Alan's restaurant." Then she glared at her youngest son.
Zhao Lan's face didn't blush and her heart didn't beat, "Who asked mother to be busy!" It wasn't that her son didn't invite her.
Princess Jin was choked by her son and glared at him again.
Zhao Lan hurriedly walked to his mother's side and served her the food himself, which made his old mother laugh.
When Mrs. Fan saw Princess Jin like this, she also looked at her youngest son Fan Yanjia.
Fan Yanjia was smart and immediately came over to serve food to his mother.
Mrs. Fan and Princess Jin laughed out loud.
Prince Jin and Lord Fan also laughed.
How can the happiness in life compare to having children around you and enjoying the family joy?
Everyone took their seats.
Lord Xun had never expected that after marrying into the Su family, he would have the opportunity to dine with the Minister of Personnel and Prince of Jin. His face was flushed with excitement, but even so, he was just happy and not blind. He just behaved as usual.
After years of settling down, Su Yanzu became more handsome and sociable. Holding a wine glass, he would take care of everyone, regardless of age or status, making people feel happy and cheerful.
With his uncle taking care of the dinner table, Zhao Lan sat down next to Su Ruojin and said, "Ajin, what do you want to eat? I'll give it to you."
There was a table full of wine and meat, but Su Ruojin had no appetite at all. She shook her head and said, "I have a headache. I don't want to eat."
"Did you get up too early and catch a cold?"
The Su family booked a table for a dinner party, and Su Ruojin came early in the morning to confirm the food and drinks with Santai.
"Not really!"
Whether she got up from the bedroom, or was on the road in a carriage or in a restaurant, there was always charcoal fire and it was not cold at all. She couldn't be so delicate, right?
"Maybe I didn't take a nap. I feel a little dizzy."
It’s so nice to take a nap every day and not be a social animal, but Su Ruojin thinks it’s a bit too much to be so lazy that she makes herself sick. It seems that she needs to find something to do, otherwise she will be exhausted.
"How about a couple of light bites? I'll take you to my private room to get some sleep?"
Even if the Jin Wang couple and Lord Fan and his wife didn't come, Su Ruojin didn't want to spoil everyone's fun during the New Year. "It's okay. It's lively. I don't want to leave."
Zhao Lan stopped persuading him and had a bowl of light fish skin porridge served.
Su Ruojin took the food and started to eat it, but just as it reached her mouth, before she could feel anything, her throat moved and she turned her head to vomit: "Ugh... Ugh... Ugh..."
Zhao Lan was shocked: "Ajin..."
The worried voice instantly silenced the entire restaurant.
Everyone looked over.
"vomit……"
Su Ruojin couldn't help but vomit again.
Su Yanzu, who had been standing and toasting, walked over to his niece and asked, "Ajin, are you... pregnant?"
Zhao Lan suddenly felt deaf and could not hear anything. Joy instantly surged through his body, and he exhaled, "Ajin..." with a trembling voice.
Cheng Yingzhen also ran to her daughter, "Ajin...Ajin...", shocked and worried.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Princess Jin asked the medical nanny beside her to take Su Ruojin's pulse.
"Congratulations, Prince and Princess. The Sixth Madam is pregnant and it's been almost two months."
Zhao Lan was so happy that he almost flew away.
(⊙ o⊙)Ah! He is going to be a father! (End of this chapter)
