Chapter 71 Engagement

Qingyun sometimes felt that Peixia was too careless to even think of this. After he reminded her, Peixia also responded that two days ago, Lord Lu went to the Su Mansion to ask for marriage, but did not get the consent of the old man and the lady. Now that the young lady agreed, they should also agree to this marriage. Peixia was dissatisfied with

Qingyun's complaints, puffed up her cheeks and stepped on Qingyun, and then returned to the yard happily.

The spring days are full of red fields.

Lu Huaihe visited the Su Mansion again.

This time, he came to ask for the name, ask for the good luck, and check the auspicious date.

Princess Zhaoyang said that she would let her son make the decision himself, but she still sent the most valued Nanny Tang to the Su Mansion, which also meant that she agreed.

Zhao Wanrong invited Su He to her house early. Several female relatives set up a table in front of the screen at the back of the hall. They could not hear the conversation between Lu Huaihe and Su Ronghai in the front hall, but could only see his slender figure through the screen.

Su He closed her eyes and pulled her sleeves nervously.

In her previous life, her cultivation with Lu Yan was relatively simple. Before getting married, they just asked a matchmaker to come to their house, ask for the name and date, and then they got married. At that time, because they knew each other and there was no matchmaker, Liu just found a relative to be the matchmaker, on the grounds that she could earn some wedding money.

Now, watching Lu Huaihe making preparations for the wedding in an orderly manner, Su He couldn't tell what she felt in her heart.

Su Yun and Su Lian heard that Lu Huaihe was coming, so they came together. When they walked behind the screen, Su He saw that Su Yun's eyes were red and a little swollen.

"You are fine, what's wrong with your eyes? Have you asked the doctor to see it?" Zhao Wanrong asked.

Su Yun glanced at Su He, bent down and sat down, and replied calmly: "I got some dust on my eyes this morning and accidentally rubbed them. It's nothing."

Su Lian's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, then she looked at Su He timidly and stopped.

Last night, Su Ronghai went to Aunt Luo's courtyard to rest. Because he drank a few glasses of wine, he was very happy and told her that Lu Huaihe asked Su He to marry him. When Su Yun, who was serving on the side, heard about it, the sky fell!

Su Yun guessed that Lu Huaihe might not choose her, but he could only make a decision between Su He and Lian. She never thought it would be Su He?

She had been promised to someone else and was no longer innocent. She had been entangled with Lu Yanxiu for so many years. Didn't Lu Huaihe mind her? He was Lu Yanxiu's uncle in terms of seniority. Didn't he care?

Su Yun looked unhappy. She took a few sips of tea and found it bland. She pushed the teacup away. She subconsciously tilted her head to look to the side. Lu Huaihe's figure appeared on the screen. She lowered her eyes.

"Your second sister has a happy event today. Don't look unhappy." Among the sisters, Zhao Wanrong was partial to Su He.

"Happy event? Is it...remarrying for the second time?"

Su Yun raised the corner of her mouth and deliberately asked this question.

Su He raised her eyes and smiled slightly: "Yes."

"Then I wish my second sister and Lord Lu a long and happy marriage."

"Thank you."

No one knew what Su Ronghai and Lu Huaihe said in the front hall, but soon the elderly elders of the family arrived. The atmosphere was harmonious. I think they were asking for the name and checking the date of birth. After everything was ready, the wedding date was set on the sixth day of next month.

The team carrying the betrothal gifts came in one after another, from the Princess's Mansion to the Su family, parading all the way through the city, which was particularly conspicuous. What's even more outrageous is that the betrothal gift team was forced to walk around the capital twice, even though it was only two streets away!

Numerous mahogany boxes were carried into the Su residence, and teams came and went. There were countless rare treasures, and the housekeeper who was registering the betrothal gifts was dazzled. "

A large enamel and jade vase, a white jade three-inlaid auspicious and auspicious

... Su Lian knew what Su Yun was thinking, and tugged at her sleeves and whispered, "More betrothal gifts are a good thing." With so many betrothal gifts, when it's Su He's turn to marry again, she can't take them all away, right? If they stay at home, won't it be a bargain for them? Su Yun doesn't value these material possessions, and they are of no use to her. The sky gradually darkened. In the evening, Wang specially set up a banquet and invited Lu Huaihe to dinner, but he refused. "I want to take Ah He to Fanlou for dinner." Wang was slightly stunned, "Then I'll go call her out." Lu Huaihe said softly. Soon Su He was brought out by Wang. Today she was dressed beautifully, with light makeup, red lips and white teeth, looking a bit simple and elegant. Seeing Lu Huaihe, she felt a little awkward. There were some elders around staring at them with a smile, which made Su He even more embarrassed. "Fanlou has a few new special dishes. I'll take you to try them." Su He whispered yes. Su Ronghai stroked his beard and watched the two leave with a look of satisfaction. After the two left the Su family, Wang took a rough look at the betrothal gift list, asked the housekeeper to copy it again, kept a copy for herself, and ordered: "Pile the betrothal gifts in the yard where the second lady used to live, send someone to check it carefully, and take them to her husband's house when the second lady gets married." "Yes." Aunt Luo and Aunt Mei standing on the side couldn't help but frowned. How could all the betrothal gifts be returned to the husband's house? Even if it was used as a return gift for the dowry, it shouldn't be so generous, right? Su Ronghai also felt that something was not right, so he tried to persuade her, "Doesn't she still have Ah He's dowry?" Wang replied, "She didn't find a good match before, so as her parents, what's wrong with giving her more money now? Although Lord Lu has been sending in a lot of betrothal gifts, don't you know that the princess is watching secretly? Our Ah He has already been wronged, and we must not be inferior to others in terms of etiquette and become a target of gossip. What if it gets out that we are selling our daughter for the betrothal gift, will you bear to hear it? If you want to do it, do it the best you can. We don't lack this little money." Su Ronghai didn't think about the things in the backyard in such detail, but after listening to her, he felt that there was some truth in what she said. However, seeing that the two concubines looked unhappy, he thought of the marriage of Su Yun and Su Lian, and secretly sent a reassuring look. They are all his daughters, so he must not favor one over the other. Let's discuss this matter later. The carriage slowly stopped at Fanlou. When Su He got off the carriage, he noticed the back of Lu Huaihe's hand, hesitated for a moment, and covered it with his hand.

Pei Xia looked at the two people's small gestures and smiled knowingly with Qingyun.

"Lord Lu is quite considerate."

"If he is not considerate, how can he find a wife?"

Qingyun was a little confused. To be honest, Lord and Su He did not get along well, so how did they suddenly get to the point of getting married? He just mentioned it to the eldest princess two days ago, and then he immediately proposed the date and raised the betrothal gift, as if he was afraid that Su He would go back on his word.
