Chapter 154: Proposing a Marriage to the He Family (Accepting the Marriage Proposal and Asking for the Name)



As soon as Gu Wanping returned to Gu Beijian's yard, she hurriedly took a bath. After the bath, when she lay on the bed, she let out a long sigh, "Ah! It's still good here. I can't imagine how comfortable it would be if I were back in Kyoto."

Qinglian gently patted Gu Wanping's legs and said, "Madam, don't worry. Since this old lady Hua has agreed, I guess we will be able to return to Kyoto soon."

"You're right. You should take a rest for a while and ask someone to prepare a pair of wild geese and other gifts." Gu Wanping remembered what Hua Po had told her and quickly instructed Qinglian.

"Okay, I'll go later." Although Qinglian was tired, she still forced herself to stay awake and said.

"Forget it. You look tired too. You've worked hard and suffered with me these past few days." Gu Wanping looked at her girl with heartache.

"It's okay. As long as the young lady is happy, I'm happy. It doesn't matter if I'm a little tired. Besides, this is for the young master's sake. Qinglian is also happy to do something for the lady and the young master!" Qinglian said with a smile.

Gu Wanping touched Qinglian's hair with concern and said, "You should take a rest. We can go shopping tomorrow. There's no rush for this."

Qinglian nodded, "Okay."

Yi Yami returned to Yiji, and Qian Fugui and others surrounded him, "Boss, you are finally back. We couldn't enjoy our meals without you."

Yi Yami smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you guys have to be mature guys. Nothing big happened while I was away, right?"

"No, everything is fine. It's just that the shopkeeper misses you very much and keeps mentioning you to us." Qian Fugui and Xiaodi and the others looked at each other and said.

Yi Yami smiled and said, "Okay, I knew it. With you guys around, I can be lazy and go find my mother."

Yi Yami walked into the kitchen. He Huaizhu greeted her happily when she saw her coming back. "Good boy, you're back!"

Yi Yami was held by He Huaizhu, looking at him all the time, and said with a smile, "Mom, I'm only away for a few days, why do you act like I've been away from you for a long time?"

He Huaizhu wiped his eyes and said, "My child, you've been gone for several days. I miss you so much and always feel like you're married..."

Yi Yami reached out and touched He Huaizhu's head. "Mother, I didn't. I just followed Aunt Gu and the others to find a matchmaker for my aunt."

He Huaizhu pouted, "They're getting married, why are you joining in the fun..."

"Mom, that's my dear aunt. They invited a matchmaker because I was very interested in her. Plus, I was a little tired from work, so I wanted to go out and have some fun. You are at home. As it turned out, the matchmaker was really good. You don't know that Aunt Gu and the others made that old lady Hua blink her eyes, but there was nothing they could do!" Yi Yami said with a smile.

He Huaizhu was helpless and touched her. "That Hua Po is a matchmaker known far and wide in the town as being hard to find. It's only because they are sincere that it would be difficult to find one. But speaking of marriage, your aunt is finally going to marry the man she loves. I'm happy for her!"

Yi Yami listened obediently.

He Huaizhu touched Yi Yami's hand and said, "Good girl, promise me that you won't like anyone so early. I want to keep you for a few more years."

!”

Upon hearing this, Yi Yami was thinking about whether to tell He Huaizhu about Gu Beijian, but then she heard He Huaizhu say, "It would be best if you could find a husband who lives close to home. If you get bullied, I can come to your house and support you!"

As He Huaizhu spoke, his eyes became moist again.

Yi Yami smiled and said, "Mom, you're thinking too far ahead. It's still a long time before I get married. Don't worry, I will definitely marry a husband who lives nearby, the kind next door, okay? You can see me as soon as you raise your feet, okay?"

He Huaizhu knew she was joking, but he was comforted.

He smiled and hit her, "Okay, okay, I won't play tricks on you anymore. I'm going to work." He Huaizhu continued to work in front of the stove.

On the second day, Qinglian prepared all the gifts and asked Hua Pozi for permission. Hua Pozi said that the next day was a good day, so she prepared to go to the He family on the next day.

Yi Yami had never seen the wedding process in this era, so she was curious and followed Gu Wanping and the others to watch the fun.

Seeing that Yi Yami was also going to join in the fun, Qin Chaochao took her hand and explained to her what the whole process was called.

"Xiaomi, now we are following Hua Pozi to the girl's home. This behavior is called Nacai, one of the six rituals in the Three Books and Six Rites." Qin Chaochao explained patiently.

"Oh, I see. That's what I've learned." Yiyami replied with a smile.

Gu Wanping and her group arrived at Shandandan Village.

The He family received news early that a matchmaker would come to their house today, so everyone dressed neatly and prepared to wait for the matchmaker to come.

Today, unlike her usual simple attire, Hua Pozi wore a festive red dress and held a red rope and a red wedding fan in her hands.

"A magpie is standing on the branch, there will be happy events today!" Hua Pozi said with a smile, got off the carriage with a swagger, and then shouted loudly, attracting the attention of the surrounding villagers.

"Oh my, this man is so thoughtful that he actually asked Hua Pozi to be the matchmaker!"

"That's right! I heard it's hard to hire a flower lady, but I didn't expect to find one here!"

"Hey, which house are we going to?"

"Needless to say, looking in this direction, it's the He family. I was wondering why the He family got up so early this morning to sweep the yard. It turns out the matchmaker is coming to visit!"

Grandma Hua walked to the door of the He family with a smile and shouted, "The Yao family of Kyoto has specially selected an auspicious day to propose marriage!"

He Shoushan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, please come in, please come in!"
