Chapter 80 When do you and Liu Niang plan to get married?
Yan Xingchuan soon received a reply from Jiang Shao.
It was agreed that the two sides would decide the winner in front of the Chongshan Pass city gate three days later, that is, on April 18th.
Yan Xingchuan held the letter of challenge and let out a long sigh.
At this time, Cui Si also received an invitation from Cui Yao, inviting her to attend the farewell banquet at the third house on April 18th, after April 3rd.
Spring goes in March and summer comes in April.
Spring has passed, the spring flowers have all bloomed, and the fallen petals are scattered all over the ground.
At this time, it is time to hold a farewell banquet to bid farewell to the departing spring, so it is called a farewell banquet.
A breeze blows through the treetops, and the summer heat slowly permeates the world.
Cui Si stood in the corridor, holding the invitation, listening to the chirping of insects and birds in the yard, frowning slightly.
She asked the visitor, "Fifth Sister only sent one invitation. Is she inviting only me?"
The maid, who had come to deliver the invitation, was a little confused when she heard this: "This...wasn't there only one invitation in the past?"
"The past is the past, and today is today." Cui Si put the invitation back into the other party's hand.
"Take it back and ask her whether she wants to send one invitation or three."
In the past, Cui Hao had an awkward status. She was neither a legitimate daughter nor a concubine. In addition, because of her mother, the sisters in the clan looked down on her. Cui Yao disdained to send her an invitation, so she couldn't force herself to come.
But now the ghost marriage of Mr. Cui Wu has been agreed upon, and they are just waiting for April 28th, when Cui Hao's mother will be brought in as a daughter of the Gong family and buried together.
Cui Hao's identity has also become clear.
——She is the second daughter of the Cui family, Cui Jiuniang Cui Hao.
Cui Yao still has an invitation card at the moment. Isn't it obvious that she disdains Cui Hao?
As for the other letter, it was to my cousin Yan Suxin.
Yan Suxin is now a guest at the second branch of the Cui family. The Yan family is Cui Si's formal maternal grandparents. Since Cui Si has been invited, it is natural to give Yan Suxin a letter and ask her to come and join in the fun.
He didn't invite his cousin, nor his cousin, but only invited Cui Si. Was he going to let her go alone?
The maid was slightly stunned when she heard this. Thinking of the recent events of the Cui family and Cui Hao, her face changed and she quickly replied:
"I will go back and ask you right away. Maybe you forgot for a moment. Please don't be offended, Sixth Lady."
"It's okay, it's just a small thing, just remember it next time."
After sending the people away, Cui Si went to see Old Madam Yan and took her to visit the Jiang family.
Cui Si had previously planned to take her to meet Jiang Cinian, or to let Jiang Cinian come to the Cui family to pay a visit.
It’s just a pity that Jiang Cinian happened to be out and only came back yesterday.
By chance, she met Yan Suxin at Old Lady Yan's place. When she heard that she was going to meet Cui Si's fiancé, Yan Suxin also wanted to go. In the end, she even called Yan Jishen and went to the Jiang family together.
Jiang Cinian came to Xianyang City for the first time and bought a house early in order to get engaged to Cui Si.
That house cannot be compared with the Cui family's house, but its location is also very good. It is a house with four courtyards, two side courtyards, and a garden.
When the group arrived, Jiang Cinian was still drying medicinal herbs in the yard. When he heard that they had arrived at the door, he hurried over to greet them.
He was still wearing a green robe with loose sleeves and a casual style.
His elegant and timeless face was gentle and humble, as if he were a hermit in the mountains, but his eyes were clear, bright, clean and pure, as if there was not a trace of haze at all.
"I'm sorry for saying goodbye. When I returned yesterday, I heard from the servants that you, Madam, had come to Xianyang City. I had wanted to go and see you today, but I brought back a lot of medicinal herbs yesterday that needed to be processed, so I thought I would go in the evening or tomorrow. I never expected you to come in person."
Madam Yan snorted, "How much can you earn from dealing with these things every day? If you have this time, you might as well spend more time with Liu Niang.
Neither the Cui family nor the Yan family expects you to achieve great things. The best thing is that you can accompany Liu Niang."
Cui Si had to get engaged out of helplessness, but there were many candidates. She got engaged to him originally in order to live a stable life. What's the point of him being so busy?
Jiang Cinian said seriously, "I understand this, but I can't rely on Liu Niang to support my family in the future. As a man, I should be able to support my wife and children, and also earn some money for my wife's cosmetics."
He is humble, speaks sincerely, and loves his wife.
Old Madam Yan felt very relieved to hear this. She was originally eight points dissatisfied with her grandson-in-law, but now her dissatisfaction has dropped to five points.
Well, it's just a reluctant admission.
Cui Si smiled. As expected, sincerity is the ultimate skill in this world.
People like Old Madam Yan have seen too many deceptions and schemes, and prefer gentle and pure people like Jiang Cinian.
It's very comfortable to get along with each other.
The same goes for Cui Si.
She had lived an extremely tiring life in her previous life and had suffered too much. She just wanted to find a quiet and gentle place to return to and live a peaceful life.
"Old Madam, Sixth Lady, and the two gentlemen and ladies, please come in."
Jiang Cinian invited him into his home. Cui Si helped Old Madam Yan up the stairs. When she came to his side, she suddenly said to him, "There's still a blade of grass on your head."
Jiang Cinian paused, reached out his hand and grabbed a piece of dry grass above his head.
Yan Jishen and Yan Suxin couldn't help laughing out loud.
Cui Si also suppressed her laughter and said to Old Lady Yan, "Grandma, he is a good doctor. Let him see you later. He can treat you if you are sick, and you can also feel at ease if you are not sick."
Seeing that she was still in the mood for mischief, Old Lady Yan shook her head and laughed, "You, you, you're already ordering me around before I even open my mouth."
Cui Si said, "What's wrong with ordering him around? If not, do we still have to serve him? I tell you, from now on, he must obey me."
Jiang Cinian nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, I'll listen to Sixth Lady."
Madam Yan smiled again: "Okay, okay, he listens to you."
Now, Old Lady Yan had a better impression of Jiang Cinian. Her attitude became visibly more relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.
After entering the Jiang family, Jiang Cinian invited everyone to the main hall, asked Old Madam Yan to take a seat, and personally made tea and served it:
"This is something I made myself. It's for calming the mind and nourishing the spirit. Madam, please try it."
"I've tried it at my in-laws' place, and it's really good. I'm old now, and I sleep lightly at night, often waking up. I usually don't dare drink tea at night, but your tea can help me sleep peacefully after drinking it."
Jiang Cinian immediately said, "Then I'll prepare some more and give them to the old lady."
"It's good that you have such filial piety." Old Madam Yan accepted his kindness with a smile.
Speaking of which, Jiang Cinian does have some skills.
Old Madam Yan wanted to ask for some tea from Old Madam Xu.
Unfortunately, it was a gift from her future grandson-in-law, so she couldn't bring herself to ask for it.
Now, she has it too.
Finally, I don’t have to envy others anymore.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yan's dissatisfaction with Jiang Cinian dropped to two points, and her satisfaction rose to eight points.
"When do you and Liu Niang plan to get married?"
