The wedding date of Chi Qing and Wang Qiaoya was different from the date when Chi Yu got married, and the Qi family consulted a master to calculate the time. This is also the reason why.
So when Chi Qing went to find her, Lü Guihua, upon hearing that Chi Yu was getting engaged and that Qin Mu's betrothal gifts were quite generous, didn't ask for details about what they included, and cheerfully said:
"I've been consulting the almanac a lot these past few days and I know tomorrow is an auspicious day, and today isn't bad either."
Xiaoyu is getting engaged, and to avoid conflict with Aqing, it should be either a day earlier or a day later.
Upon hearing this, Chi Kang understood the situation.
Qin Mu was in a hurry to go down the mountain back to the county town, and he couldn't be late, so he had to go earlier.
If we want to do it earlier, then it can only be today.
So when he returned, everyone in the main room turned their attention to him.
Chi Dongyi had just consulted the old almanac for Chi Qing, and he still had a vague impression of it. Today should be a good day.
Therefore, what Chi Kang brought back was within his expectations.
On this very night, in front of many relatives and elders, Chi Yu and Qin Mu officially got engaged.
The betrothal gifts were all handed over to Chi Yu.
To show respect, the older generation of the Chi family, after consulting with the three Chi brothers and their wives, formally handed Qin Mu a birth chart with Chi Yu's birth date and time written on it.
Qin Mu then ordered someone to summon Shen Zhaochen, who, at Qin Mu's instruction, wrote down Shen Zhaochen's birth chart two zhang away from him and handed it to Chi Yu.
The two sides exchanged birth charts, and the marriage was arranged. They would wait until tomorrow, after descending the mountain, to formally set a wedding date upon their return, so that the bride could be brought back to the groom's home!
Yes, Qin Mu's marriage to Chi Yu was different from the usual process of formal betrothal and marriage arrangements.
Instead, they handled the matter in a special way, and in one night, everything was done in one step. The tax payment was completed, and all that was left was to wait for the appointment date.
By the time all this was finished, it was already past midnight.
Having witnessed all of this, Ikeno felt a tightness in his chest.
His good brother, just now, became his uncle-in-law.
The next time they met, he couldn't even call him by his name; he had to respectfully address him as "Uncle!"
Thinking about all this, he looked at Qin Mu with a resentful gaze.
However, the other person gave him a bright smile.
This gave him the feeling that he had let a wolf into his house.
When did Qin Mu take a liking to his aunt?
Was it before he went to Qijia Village, or after you rented the house next to his?
Or perhaps, it was when he came to Chijia'ao under the pretense of delivering grain to him?
No, no, by then, he must have already harbored treacherous intentions.
That could only have happened when my aunt was in postpartum confinement in Anping County...
Just as Chi Ye was thinking about these things, it was getting late, and Chi Qing was getting married the next day, while Qin Mu and Shen Kai also had to go down the mountain.
So the people, who all had to get up early, dispersed in twos and threes with perfect understanding.
Whether it was excitement or something else, unlike the soundly sleeping Chi Yu, Qin Mu tossed and turned that night.
As dawn approached, he, who hadn't slept for long, woke up Shen Kai, got up, dressed, washed, and prepared to leave.
As for Chi Yu, she was engaged to Qin Mu, and knowing that he was going down the mountain, she got up early to cook.
After Qin Mu and Shen Kai left the guest room in the west wing, she handed them a basket.
"Amu, inside are the things I prepared for you and Chen Kai, including a tinderbox and food."
There were also three water bladders, filled with boiled water.
Come and have some porridge and rice first, then we'll set off. We won't be short of time.
Qin Mu's eyes softened when he heard that she had even changed how she addressed him.
