Su Li smiled and said, "That really is 'good things come in pairs'. Congratulations, grandma, haha!"
The old lady dotes on Linglong and has always cared a lot about her lifelong affairs. Now, her beloved younger generation will marry into her family, so she doesn't have to worry about her being wronged in the future. Her grandson will also have such a good wife. How can this not be "good things come in pairs"?
"Haha, yes, good things come in pairs, hahaha!"
At this time, Ji Tingyou also came.
"Grandma, Sister Su, why are you so happy? I heard your laughter at the door."
Su Li teased, "Of course it's your business, Ji Tingyou, congratulations."
She really didn't expect that Linglong's affair had only happened a few days ago, and this guy suddenly came to his senses and wanted to get engaged as soon as he arrived.
Ji Tingyou naturally knew what she was talking about. He felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head and chuckled.
The old lady was amused. They had all been young before, so she understood.
"Ali, grandma is old and can't handle many things. Tingyou's mother has divorced his father. I called you here today not only to tell you this, but also to take care of Tingyou's engagement."
Su Li nodded: "Don't worry, Grandmother. I am Tingyou's eldest sister-in-law, and these things are what I should do. By the way, have you and your great aunt set a date for the proposal?"
"Not yet. I've told your great aunt to wait for Pei Ji to come back. Once he officially acknowledges his ancestral roots and Tingyou is registered under Sheng'er's name, we can choose a date to formally propose marriage. There's no rush to prepare the betrothal gifts. It's just the same as waiting until the day is chosen."
"Then listen to grandma..."
At night.
Inside the post station, Pei Ji stood at the railing on the second floor, looking at the purse in his hand.
It was a brand new red purse embroidered with gold thread. It was the purse Su Li gave him to hold his New Year's money.
Unfortunately, there is a round hole in my purse now.
Pei Ji recalled the day when he and Lin Muyang were assassinated by the prefect of Yifeng. If it weren't for the purse filled with thick gold leaves, he would have been seriously injured by the arrow that was shot at his chest.
He was fine, but his wallet was broken.
The autumn wind blew up his official robe, making a rustling sound, but Pei Ji was completely unaware and just looked quietly in the direction of the capital.
In a few days, he would be able to see her...
Around the corner, Lin Muyang came over with two bags of steaming hot meat buns. "Hey! Pei Ji, you're here! It took me so long to find you!"
"Hey, buns! I asked someone to buy some at the market up ahead. They're delicious!"
He handed a bag to Pei Ji and continued eating the half-eaten bag.
"Look at your purse again. It's full of flowers."
He recognized that purse. It was the purse that Mrs. Pei gave him to hold his New Year's money.
Along the way, he had seen him take it out many times. Even though it had a hole in it, he still treated it like a treasure. Every time he looked at the purse, he would tell people to hurry up and leave.
He couldn't help but ask him, "Pei Ji, why do you always ask us to hurry up every time you see that purse?"
Pei Ji put his purse away, took out a bun from the bag and said, "The purse is broken."
"And what? What does it have to do with our journey?"
Pei Ji looked at him puzzledly: "Of course I have. I need to go back quickly so that my wife can sew it up for me."
Lin Muyang's eyes widened in shock. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I have a servant who can sew. I asked him to sew for you. Look how anxious you are!"
"Why should I ask him to sew? He is not my wife."
“…”
Lin Muyang was speechless. Could it be that only Mrs. Pei could sew this purse?
Is this true for all men with wives?
At home, Dad is the same. He asks Mom for everything. Will he be the same when he has a wife in the future?
Huh! Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem so bad.
Suddenly remembering what his mother had told him before leaving Beijing, Lin Muyang raised his chin and said proudly, "Pei Ji, let me tell you something. My mother said that after I finish this mission and return to Beijing, she will arrange a marriage for me. After we get married, I will be like you and have someone give me New Year's money, hehe!"
"... Then, congratulations."
"Hehe! Congratulations, everyone..."
